The Turn Of The Karmic Wheel by Monica M. Brinkman

Back of the Book:

"What goes around, comes around." Truer words were never spoken, as evidenced by the complex interactions and fates of the characters in "The Turn of The Karmic Wheel." When the residents of Raleigh begin to hear music and voices that aren't "there", and to receive frightening messages from no discernable source, it soon becomes apparent that changes must - and will - be made: to their everyday lives, to their relationships, to their bodies, and, most importantly, to their souls.

Reporting for Doodie by J.L. Smith

Back of the Book:

Reporting for Doodie: One Grandmother's Story of Commitment, Frustration and Unwavering Love delves into the life-changing challenges of one such single grandmother, while revealing some of the other trials being faced by the members of our armed forces. Divorce rates are rising, as are suicide rates. Soldiers who had custody of their children at the time of their deployment are returning home to find that their ex-spouse has taken away those rights because they could not attend the court hearings. Families and caregivers are being changed by war...some for months...some for over a year...and others forever - if the deployed troop does not return home. The book's author, Judith L. Smith, writes of her own experiences as a result of the dual deployment of her daughter to Africa and her son-in-law to Iraq. Her story is happy, sad and heartwarming all at once, while making the reader really stop and think about this timely and relevant issue facing today's military families. Her experience resulted in a reinvention of herself (inside and out) so inspiring that it caught the eye of the producers of the Oprah Winfrey Show, where Judith appeared in a segment that aired in May of this year.

When Love Ends and the Ice Cream Carton is Empty by Jackie M. Johnson

About The Book:

Losing a hope-filled dating relationship is a stressful and painful event. And when it seems to occur again, again, and again, is Ben & Jerry the only refuge for a Christian single?

As one who has walked this road before, author Jackie Johnson says an emphatic "no!"

While most books for singles tell readers how to get the next guy, When Love Ends and the Ice Cream Carton is Empty encourages a healthy healing process. Practical and biblical based, each chapter guides the reader through a metaphorical day of restoration. Twilight recognizes and deals with endings, night validates and grieves the loss, dawn awakens hope, and day is the new beginning based on the solid assurance of Christ.

Chapters conclude with discussions questions for individual or group study, helpful Bible verses, and a prayer.
