Dying To Meet Jesus
Dying to Meet Jesus
Where is God when my suffering seems never-ending? Can I really find joy in this fallen world?This powerful book confronts these questions with stories of the author's near-death experience, a daughter's suicide attempt, mental illness, and numerous other gripping stories that demonstrate not only that God is present when we need him, but that through our trials we can find true intimacy with him.
Author Randy Kay recounts how, as a former devout agnostic, he survived a near-fatal accident while searching for the truth--and when he met the One he sought to disprove, his journey changed from a life of extreme trials into one of genuine joy. In these pages, Kay offers his testimony to show readers how God uses suffering and brokenness to build an intimate and indestructible relationship with him, while breaking down barriers and ushering the reader into an authentic relationship with the Author of love.

I Guess I'll Go To Rehab
Alex just recently entered rehab for drugs and alcohol. Follow his journal entries as well as letters he receives from his spouse Samuel as he embarks on his journey to sobriety.
The Rings of Hesaurun
Hesaurun’s once rich biosphere was stolen by a ruthless enemy, ripped away leaving only deep gouges and devastation as evidence that there had once been something more. Now it and its previously inhabited moons lay barren, devoid of the raw materials that fuel life. Still, the devastated planet holds a mysterious secret, The Five Rings of Hesaurun, the Preservers, ancient sentient mechanoids. Other worlds will suffer a similar fate unless the Preservers act, but they need a worthy organic vassal, a ring bearer. They find what they seek in an unexpected place—Earth.
Follow the starship Dreamer, her commander Valerie Dunne, and crew as they navigate the past, present, and distant futures. Earth’s fate now rests on this strange woman’s ability to harness five Hesaurun rings — rings with the power to destroy, heal, manipulate time, and somehow help her find a way to alter her own destiny.
The Rings of Hesaurun is a fast-paced but easy-to-follow adventure with a myriad of characters, settings, and surprises. Peter Harrett has crafted a thrilling page-turner with character development akin to the brilliance of King or Koontz.
