"Once an orphan, always an orphan!" became the mantra of her childhood. Orphan No More is a gripping first-hand account of a child who survives the horror of sexual abuse and abandonment in a society that turns a blind eye to the stark reality of molestation, child abuse, and sexual exploitation. Frightened and confused, she struggled to understand the death of her mommy and why her daddy did such horrible things to her. The state removed her from the only home she knew and tossed her from one foster home to another. What does the future hold for one abandoned little girl whose soul had been traumatized, tormented, repeatedly abused, and abandoned on so many levels?Endorsement:Orphan No More is a gut-wrenching, unembellished story of a woman who, through Christ, has found freedom and victory. Jen's vulnerability in sharing the details of her life, including the deeply private and painful points, will inspire readers to know that their story also matters and their voice needs to be heard. I believe this book will inspire, encourage, and open eyes to the reality of both broken humanity and the love and power of Jesus. Jen paints a beautiful picture of redemption through her words and lets the world know that there truly is a God who gives beauty for ashes, joy for mourning, and a garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. ¿Janice Rigel, Co-Founder of Stirred Up Ministries, Podcast host of Just JaniceOrphan No More is a powerful story of hope, healing, wholeness, and freedom. Jen allows herself to be vulnerable, real, and honest, as she discloses the deepest, darkest, and most broken pieces of her being.

Chosen, a sequel to Loved, is a redemptive message to reveal the nature of Jesus and His love for you. The heart of Jesus is revealed through His joy and plan for you as you step into His world. Though redemption is often defined through the glory and sacrifice of the cross, the goal of this book is for us to truly see Jesus and His compassion for our journey as He answers the question, "Who is Chosen?" The enemy has tried to fill our hearts with lies convincing us that we are unworthy of redemption. We come face to face with the feeling of "not enough" and yet Jesus speaks the truth, that because of Him we are worthy. Stepping into your identity that you are, in fact, chosen is the answer to overcoming those lies. Each chapter will challenge readers to look within and overcome fear as they step onto the path that has been laid before them. Through an inner healing journey, the reader will not only experience victory in overcoming the temptations that Jesus faced, but will overcome with compassion for others. Redeemer embodies the true identity of Christ and His love and adoration for you. Chosen carries a depth of wisdom and will encourage the reader to not give up their fight. The reader will discover that each battle is won in the secret place. The message of this book is counter-cultural as it fills you with purpose and passion. Your journey as chosen has just begun.Endorsement:With a likeness to John Bunyan's, The Pilgrim's Progress, Chosen will take you on a metaphorical journey as you embark on an exhilarating pilgrimage side by side with the Redeemer. With creative writing that will capture your imagination, and enlighten your soul, Chosen invites your senses to come alive as you experience the constant presence of Love and Spirit, and glean wisdom from Peace, Lesson, Patience, and Kindness. Through mountaintops and valleys, each page will prick your heart with truth and grace, and will overwhelm you with the encompassing reality that Jesus indeed calls you Chosen! Chosen is an invitation to commune with your Redeemer and understand His love for you. Are you ready to embark on this journey with Him¿Emily Elizabeth Anderson, Thriving Forward Ministries.

The 21st century teenage experience of living for God is one like none other. Times have changed but God still remains true to His Word no matter the situation. Meet Kennedy, a Bi-racial fourteen year old whose life is turned upside down during a freak rainstorm in Southern California. But after the Event that steals the life of her little sister and the soul of her African-American mother, her Caucasian father goes into survival mode, leaving her and twin brother KJ to fend for themselves. Just when things are on the brink of spinning out of control, Grandma - a God fearing, faith-filled woman - steps in and moves the family to Virginia to help nurse her daughter back to health and to get the family back on track. The Kennedy Chronicles: Losing Rylie is the first in a trilogy that takes its readers through a myriad of emotions that deal with authentic, humorous, mildly romantic, and sensitive situations. It is far from a fairy-tale and modern readers with even a hint of spirituality will relate to the challenges faced by Kennedy and her family and find inspiration in her journey. It speaks to a relationship with a true God and deals with the age-old question, "Why does God let bad things happen to good people?" It delves into the heart, soul, and mind of today's teenager with all of the pressures of just living in this fallen world. What will life bring her in Virginia? Will her mom ever snap out of her depression? And does God really hear her when she cries?Endorsement:Through heartwarming and heartbreaking moments, Kennedy's struggle in being a minority, a Christian, and a teenage girl were not only relatable, but real life issues. Losing Rylie, put me through a myriad of emotions. I laughed, blushed, cried, and got angry right along with Kennedy. I felt what she felt and her experiences turned into mine as well. As a Christian teenager in modern America, I understand how easy it can be to slip away from God and into the world. Losing Rylie presented Kennedy to me as not only a role model, but also as an example of how to come to God with all of my issues and struggles, especially when times get tough.Madison K. - age 17; James Wood High SchoolAbout the Author: Clarissa Lee-Kennerly knew at an early age that God called her to write. Compelled to write more personal non-fiction novels like "My Husband's Not Saved" which was published in 2008, and having worked with teenagers all of her careers, she was inspired to write a contemporary novel that teens today can relate to and still experience God's love. She resides in Virginia with her husband and two childrenÿþ

This is a book with a Christian, scripture-based perspective about marriage and the important decisions to make prior to getting married. This book gives advice about strengthening your marriage with Biblical principles. Saying "I do" means "doing" something to stay married. James 1:22 says that we need to be doers and not hearers only. I point out some of the most frequent issues people face while trying to find a spouse and after being married, and I give helpful advice about how to triumph over those issues. Along with the Bible, I use my own personal examples to show readers how to:┬╖        Know what to look for┬╖        Find what you are looking for ┬╖        Understand the meaning of marriage┬╖        Survive life''s obstacles ┬╖        Stay happily married Endorsement:Dr. Pelletier''s book is an invaluable resource for couples in all stages. Finding a life partner can be tricky. Having a healthy relationship is even more complex at times. This book provides genuine and relevant advice for creating healthy relationships. Doing the I Do in Marriage is a must-read book for those searching for their life partner and those who are married.ΓöÇDr. Jeffry CaballeroPresident of Harbor Genesis Christian College & Board Member of the Association for Hispanic Theological Education (AETH)About the Author:Dr. Keith Pelletier is married to Kristen Pelletier and they are the parents of four children.

CHRISTIANS JUST SHOULDN''T HAVE TO STRUGGLE AGAINST SEXUAL SIN AND TEMPTATION!And yet, you fight the battle all the time. If this is you, or someone you love, I believe these words will provide you with encouragement, comfort, and the challenge of being really honest with yourself every day. It was written during my recovery from my addiction to pornography and provides a daily verse, a paragraph about what that verse meant to me in my recovery, a question, and four Bible verses that speak to the question. God really does want to bring you peace and wholeness.Endorsement:The only way a sexually broken man can make real progress is to grow in his relationship with Jesus. That means prayer and assimilation of God''s Word. Buck Levis''s Coming Clean is a great help from men needing to connect with God through Scripture. It provides a short reading from the Bible, thoughts on how to incorporate that into your recovery, and a provocative question for further study and prayer. I recommend it, especially if you''ve had a hard time getting your devotional discipline off the ground. ΓöÇRussell Willingham, New Creation Ministries, Creator of the Breaking Free recovery curriculum∩╗┐Coming Clean is a year of daily devotional reflections on Scripture journaled by a man during what he called "the greatest struggle of my life." The personal application of the truth of God''s Word by Buck Levis is candid, insightful, honest, and direct. Although written by one who struggled with sexual sin, Buck has come to see that what was learned offers "help for all of us who plagued by a besetting sin of any kind, whether sexual or any other kind."Reading God''s Word each day, Buck asked God to pick an excerpt from Scripture and show him what that passage meant in his life at the moment. This he did for approximately four years. Grouping them "by the things in his life with which God was dealing, no attempt was made to put them in chronological order."Such a highly personal devotional book could be viewed as somewhat limited. However, well written and truly insightful the reader will find they, too, are being enlightened and challenged, as each devotional concludes with a personal and practical question, followed by four relevant passages of Scripture.ΓöÇDr. John Amstutz, Pastor, Missionary, Author, and professor. Founder Central Valley School of Ministry.About the Author:W. Kent Levis grew up on a farm in California. He received his B.A. from Fresno State College and his J. D. degree from the University of San Diego School of Law. He gave his life to the Lord in 1977.

What if our mind was a ship trying to navigate through the waters of this life -- whether smooth waters, rough, or overwhelming? At some heartbeat, we experience all of these waters. Come on a journey with me -- exploring who the Creator is, of wonder, vulnerability, thanksgiving, encouragement, and pain all on a page. May you be encouraged no matter how the waters are for you. Know there is an answer, hope, and Someone who cares. Steady the ship of your mind on things above, lest the ship starts drifting or sinking. He is the commander of our minds and, when He speaks, there is a great calm. Endorsement:Kristen has a gentle, soft, and sensitive way of sharing her experiences in life and with God, both in the sad and joyful times of her life. It is biblically sound and contains more references than most other literary works, which lends to its credibility. The chapters "He is Good," "Loneliness," and "The Two Lines" were among my favorites. I would highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a fresh and yet perhaps different perspective on nature, people, and God.-Paul Taibi, a precious one of the King, a husband, father, grandpa, and retired Chaplain. About the Author:Kristen is a soldier for Jesus and ultimately just wants to please Him. Jesus designed her with a love for animals and a joy for video production. When she is not working or writing, she likes to spend time with animals and nature. No matter what Kristen finds herself doing, she just wants everyone to know that Jesus is real, to trust Him, and to know that our final destination is ahead.

Do you doubt God exists? Are you a struggling Christian? If so, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! This easy to read, 30-day devotional, challenges you to look at God differently. It invites you into the recesses of the author''s mind, into the secret thoughts and feelings most are afraid to give voice to. From molestation at a young age to her first husband''s death, the author explores weakness, pain, doubt, and unbelief, all the while reconciling these feelings with the character of God. Sit back, hold on and give yourself the gift of freedom. Freedom only comes from knowing God.WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT THE BOOK: You may have picked up this book in a place of brokenness, emptiness, or regret. Or, perhaps you chose this book in hopes of finding deeper intimacy with God. However, this book ended up in your hands, I assure you that you will feel the impact well beyond the thirty days. As you journey through this book, you will find that Katina writes from the real and raw experiences of life and faith. Her words have a genuineness and depth because before the pen hit the page she had experienced it herself. Katina''s transparency will remind everyone that despite what has happened to you, God in His great mercy, can work all things together for good. It''s hard to find people who will not only celebrate the victories with you, but also walk through the valley with you. Katina has not only held my hand through the valley, but she has done the same for so many others. I pray that you feel the same faith, love, and hope that I felt as she journeyed with me. No matter what season of life you''re in, I am expectant that God will do a new work in you as you read this book. -Emma Hoffman, Youth Pastor.Your view of life depends on the lens you are looking through. Katina Wetter''s 30-day devotional is like an eye exam using a Biblical lens that will dramatically transform your outlook on life and eternity. -Gary Varvel, nationally syndicated cartoonist. This book is REAL. This is NOT teaching to help us create the appearance of a perfect life on social media. Katina uses real stories; as raw and dark as some of them are, to help us address the very real and present dark areas in each one of us. Her transparency and honesty are refreshing. This 30-day journey will cause the reader to explore deep within themselves to deal with doubts, sins, hurts, issues, and even some of the deepest and darkest pains of human existence. So many Christians live Sunday to Sunday putting their church faces on while suffering inside or living a shallow faith that looks great on social media but will stand very weak before the Living God. Although the title implies 30 days, I believe you will begin to see the transformation the first week. And I believe the results you gain will last well beyond 30 days, standing the test of time for all of eternity. I add my faith to your faith that your destiny is being revolutionized by applying the teachings of this book. -Pastor Matt Nichols, Founder of Matt Nichols Ministry.ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Katina Wetter-Wright is a budding author and sole contributor to the Reflections of a Believer blog, where she uses real-life situations and Biblical truths to impact people around the world. She has committed to using her voice to help others find the freedom she has in Jesus. She enjoys spending time with her husband, Andy, and their children, seeking Jesus, traveling, writing, gardening, and fellowshipping with her family and friends.
