Begin the journey of recovery from eating disorders! Let's start now on a twelve-step path that will lead out of the bondage of eating disorders and into the freedom that comes from a closer relationship with God. In the Life Recovery Workbook for Eating Disorders, discover real-life stories of fellow travelers, great questions for individual or group discussion, and a Bible-centered approach to freedom. Twelve beautiful blessings await after our hard work on the journey of recovery from eating disorders. Step 1: Open our hearts to God's power to free us from the grip of food addiction. 'We now have this light shining in our hearts.' (2 Corinthians 4:7) Step 2: Allow God to join us in the powerful emotions behind our eating disorder. 'Daughter,' he said to her, 'your faith has made you well. Go in peace.' (Luke 8:48) Step 3: Rest in God's care for every decision and eating habit. 'Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.' (Matthew 11:28) Step 4: Gain a true picture of how God sees us. 'At that moment their eyes were opened.' (Genesis 3:7) Step 5: Experience the healing that begins with confession. 'Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.' (James 5:16) Step 6: Get ready for repentance from sins expressed in unhealthy eating. 'You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.' (Psalm 51:17) Step 7: Allow God's Spirit to fix our food addictions. 'For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.' (Luke 18:14) Step 8: Create a list of people our eating disorders have affected. 'Do to others as you would like them to do to you.' (Luke 6:31) Step 9: Restore relationships damaged by our sins (when possible) and experience a clean slate. 'But then they turn from their sins and do what is just and right.' (Ezekiel 33:14) Step 10: Review daily the defects in us that hinder healthy life with God and others. 'Be careful not to fall.' (1 Corinthians 10:12) Step 11: Grow closer to God through prayer and meditation. 'The LORD is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him.' (Lamentations 3:25) Step 12: Bless others with the blessing of healing from eating disorders. 'Gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path.'

A woman with a devastating secret. A man bent on proving his worth. A chance encounter that catapults them into the heart of history. When the daughter of a prominent Roman general meets a disinherited Jewish immigrant, neither one can dream of God's plan to transform them into the most influential couple of the early church. Nor can they anticipate the mountains that will threaten to bury them. Their courtship unwittingly shadowed by murder and betrayal, Priscilla and Aquila slowly work to build a community of believers, while their lives grow increasingly complicated thanks to a shaggy dog, a mysterious runaway, and a ruthless foe desperate for love. But when they're banished from their home by a capricious emperor, they must join forces with an unusual rabbi named Paul and fight to turn treachery into redemption. With impeccable research and vivid detail, Daughter of Rome is both an emotive love story and an immersive journey through first-century Rome and Corinth, reminding readers once again why Debbie Macomber has said that 'no one brings the Bible to life like Tessa Afshar.'

And especially when her heart becomes entangled with Hollis McGuire, the boy next door-turned-baseball star who's back on the island after a career-ending injury. As sparks fly between her and Hollis, Emily is drawn to island life, even as she uncovers shocking secrets about the tragic accident that led to her mother's death.

Analyn Sanchez can handle the long hours and arrogant clients that come with her job as a crisis management associate at Denver's largest publicity firm. The high-powered job, expensive condo, and designer wardrobe are all part of her plan to prove to her family that her life choices haven't been in vain. But when she's asked to cover up a client's misdeeds with serious moral and legal ramifications, she can no longer sacrifice her conscience for her career . . . and the cost is no less than her job. Ever since a devastating climbing accident in South America eight months ago, and a bad decision that dried up his sponsorships, professional rock climber Bryan Shaw has found himself at similar loose ends. When the opportunity to buy a coffee farm in Colombia arises, he jumps on it -- only to discover his wandering ways have left him utterly unprepared to run a business. When Bryan returns home and offers Ana a role in his company as a solution to both their problems, she's desperate enough to consider working with the far-too-flippant and far-too-handsome climber, even though he's the polar opposite of her type A nature. As they delve deeper into the business, however, she begins to suspect there's much more to Bryan than she's given him credit for . . . and that sometimes the best plans are the ones you never see coming.
