The Caged in Heart

$15.99

Many children grow into adulthood with unresolved childhood attachment injuries (internal wounds) that often originated in the home and affected his or her view of self. It doesn’t matter if the wound was intentional or not, it still can have the same adverse effects on the child and his or her intimate relationships later in life. One effect is relational hypervigilance. Relational hypervigilance can produce issues in your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual functioning. It makes living alone difficult and hinders your ability to form strong, healthy, and secure relationships. Consequently, the purpose of this book is to shine light on the internal wounds that often go unnoticed and to provide a means of relief from the overwhelming burdens they have caused you in relationships. It is designed to look more specifically at one effect of abuse, and that is relational hypervigilance. Insight and guidance are provided on how to rest your overworked hyperactive threat system. This system is the internal system in your brain that alerts you when real or perceived danger is near (i.e., the limbic system). If you are hypervigilant, your alarm is always going off, and this is exhausting for you. In this book you will gain a better understanding of abuse and its cycle, how to break the cycle, and how to find beauty in the ashes of your past experiences.

My Mother's Last Words

$15.99

When my mother, LaVerne Fleming, heard the words “It may already be too late” after a grueling bout of pneumonia, she began an amazing change in her lifestyle that started with giving up smoking. That choice gained her years of life that would otherwise have literally gone up in smoke. She began taking care of herself, listening to her doctors and paying more attention to her relationships. Mom was always so full of life! She was a “Lucy” who loved to clown and make her friends laugh. Her sense of humor took her far, helping her cope during dark times. Yet because of the severity of her lung disease, known as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), LaVerne eventually came face to face with a terminal diagnosis. My book focuses on her wise and witty sayings as she faced failing health and death. “We’re all going to die,” she said thoughtfully one day. “The difference between you and me is that I know what I’m going to die of.” Just as she approached death mindfully, wanting to know all the facts and fixes, this book includes detailed appendices documenting her illness and hospitalizations, edited together from information provided by her husband Luther L. Fleming and her doctors.

Why Cats Are

$14.99

When mother and son go to a homeless animal shelter to adopt a pet, they surely never dreamed how much this tiny fur ball would influence the young boy’s life. Mike has an intense way of gazing at the world that reveals something special--how marvelous is God’s creation and how creation speaks to self-worth. When schoolmates socially and emotionally bully this child, he turns to what the cat does—marvel at the handiwork of God. This perspective, in turn, helps the boy to see his own worth and he comes to the understanding that his Creator has a plan for his life. Part of the Love Unleashed™ project, 100% of net proceeds from the sale of this book go to organizations that support spay and neuter programs for responsible animal control.

Why Horses Are

$14.99

It’s not easy to give up something you love, but if you do, for the benefit of a complete stranger, it just might change your life as well. The child in this story has a painful choice to make, and in the process, learns how helping someone else can be more important than keeping the thing you love. In sharing, she receives the gift of joy—and witnesses miracles and magic in others. The story speaks to horse lovers of all ages. Why Horses Are is the second book in the award-winning “Love Unleashed” series. The first book, Why Dogs Are, won the 2014 Silver Medal from Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards (Category: Spirituality), as well as being designated a Finalist in Spirituality for the 2014 Next Generation Indie Book Awards. “Love Unleashed” is a project of Kendall Neff Publishing, which donates 100% of net proceeds from the sale of these books to charities that reflect the focus of each book. The series aims to raise awareness of the roles animals play in our lives that enhance and improve our physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being. Proceeds from sales of Why Horses Are will benefit charities that support rescue horses and horse-therapy programs. One such program is the Marianna Greene Henry Special Equestrians (MGHSE), a non-profit program of the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind. MGHSE’s program is a Premier Accredited Center of PATH International (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship).

Why Dogs Are

$14.99

Why Dogs Are tells the story of how a dog teaches some life lessons to a very special child. It seeks to explore the concept of God’s unconditional love and how someone without the ability to see or hear can comprehend its scope and His impact in our lives. Named a Finalist in the non-profit Indie Book Awards (category Spirituality, 2014), 100% percent of net profits from book sales goes to charities that train and support therapy dogs. The book is first in a series called “Love Unleashed.” The author’s own dog Muttley was a therapy dog that brought his light and love to nursing home residents and to children with disabilities. Born deaf and blind, Brian was the inspiration for the book. His character is a composite of the many children who attended the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind who had to learn to live life with one or more disabilities. “Why Dogs Are is everything a good children’s book needs to be – engaging and delightful,” said Amy S. Royal, professional freelance editor. “But when an author tackles a big concept and manages to convey it in a simple, yet powerful way, good becomes great. Great becomes wonderful. Wonderful becomes very special. This is an engaging, delightful and very special book with a story and message that will live forever.”

Caroline Abbott

A Journey through Emotional Abuse

$13.99

One in four women will experience domestic abuse in her lifetime.

Many Christians believe domestic abuse doesn’t occur in Christian homes.

Sadly, “Religion is not a deterrent. There is just as much abuse in Christian homes as in non-Christian homes,” according to the Christian Coalition against Domestic Abuse. A Journey through Emotional Abuse answers the difficult question: “Am I being abused?” along with many theological questions such as, “Do I have to submit to this?” “Does God care about me?” and “Does the Bible say I can leave him?”

Providing abused women with important information, in bite-size pieces, along with emotional support, this book walks readers through the Matthew 18 process of reconciling with a brother, allowing the church to intervene. Readers are given assistance with discerning whether their husband has made necessary changes or whether, for their own safety, they should leave him. For those who decide they must leave, A Journey through Emotional Abuse offers a plan for leaving safely and tips on how to prepare for consequences of their choice: police, social services, and court intervention.

Readers will move from feeling confused, frightened, and alone to feeling informed and peaceful. Equipped with the knowledge of where to find help, coupled with the fact that she is the daughter of the King of the Universe, His special treasure, readers will find hope.

Soul Care

$16.99

Soul Care explores seven principles that can lead to lasting transformation and freedom for all who struggle with a broken, damaged, and sin-stained soul.

Brokenness grasps for the soul of humanity. We are broken body, soul, and spirit, and we need the healing touch of Jesus. Soul Care explores seven principles that are profound healing tools of God: securing your identity, repentance, breaking family sin patterns, forgiving others, healing wounds, overcoming fears, and deliverance.

Dr. Rob Reimer challenges readers to engage in an interactive, roll-up-your-sleeves and get messy process -- a journey of self-reflection, Holy Spirit inspiration, deep wrestling, and surrender. It is a process of discovering yourself in true community and discovering God as He pierces through the layers of your heart.

Life change is hard. But these principles, when packaged together and lived out, can lead to lasting transformation, freedom, and a healthy soul. Soul Care encourages you to gather a small group of comrades in arms, read and process together, open your souls to one another, access the presence and power of God together, and journey together into the freedom and fullness of Christ.

Parmella Miles

Compromised Journey

$15.99

Elizabeth was not aware that she had the right to use the word ‘no', especially to adults and those who were older than she. She knew nothing about self worth or self esteem and, therefore, grew up void of any confidence in her own self and any real value equated to her personal worth. Experiencing the horror of rape, rejection and betrayal, she was physically abused and lied to by those whom she trusted the most. Everything around her represented negativity and failure. So many people let her down. Those who would normally be there to support and protect her had obviously abandoned her. Compromised Journey will anger you. It will encourage you and it will captivate you as you travel with the author through the pages of her book. Throughout her story, you will see the mighty hand of God protecting Elizabeth as she struggles through one catastrophe after another. Not until she reaches out to God from the realness of her very core, is she able to experience God's purpose for her life.

The Great Exchange

$15.99

The ancient ritual of blood covenanting is central to the Bible and fundamental in understanding the nature of our relationship with God, but its meaning and significance has been lost over the centuries. We are related to God covenantally through Jesus Christ. Understanding the significance of the seven exchanges of the ancient covenant ritual gives a picture of God’s love for us and His commitment to those who are His. As you learn the significance of covenant in the lives of Abraham, Moses, Israel, Saul, David, and more, your faith will be strengthened, and your knowledge of God’s love will deepen. Questions are included for group study. Topics include: • Explanation of the seven exchanges of the ancient blood covenant ritual and the significance of each, • Study of the seven exchanges of covenant as revealed in the Bible through accounts of the cutting of the Old Covenant with Abraham and its renewal with the nation of Israel, • Lessons from men in the Bible, illustrating how their level of faithfulness to covenant affected their walk with the Lord and how it impacted their lives, • Explanation of the cutting of the New Covenant with Jesus Christ and what it means for Christians today. “The secret of the Lord is for those who fear Him, And He will make them know His covenant.” Psalm 25:14

River Dwellers

$16.99
