    Worth, Texas. Cullen Davis was one of the richest men in Texas and his second wife, Priscilla Davis, was shot in their mansion. Also shot and murdered were her twelve-year-old daughter and her thirty-year-old boyfriend, Stan Farr. Priscilla and two other people said it was Cullen. The culprit was wearing a wig so his identity was somewhat hidden but not completely. Cullen was arrested in the early morning hours of August 3, 1976, at his girlfriend's house. He later went on trial for the murder of Priscilla's daughter. He was found not guilty but the next year he was put on trial for a murder-for-hire plot to kill the judge overseeing his divorce from Priscilla. He got off from that charge, too. And somehow he finally skirted any murder charge for Stan Farr. Finally in 1979 he and Priscilla were divorced. Priscilla received 3.3 million dollars and Cullen was able to move back into his 19,000 square-foot mansion. Two books have been written and a movie was made describing these events and characters. But nothing has been written about what really happened in the decades after the trials of the 1970's. This book explains the facts of that fateful August night and what happened in the courtrooms of Texas. But the majority chronicles the path Priscilla took after the trials of the 1970's. Priscilla was not done with Cullen yet and she would try tirelessly to obtain some kind of justice. She also decided to have a little fun along the way. The press loved Priscilla but the general public were split. She had been painted as a low-rent gold-digger in the Texas courtrooms but everyone also knew that Cullen was probably guilty of murder. In the end, only the two of them really knew the truth. This is the story of how Priscilla learned to live with the fact that justice was denied her and Cullen would probably never pay. In 1995, a 26-year-old man named Greg Brown moved in with Priscilla, who was now 53. They became lovers and Greg tells how Priscilla learned to make the most of tragic situations which were both of her making and not of her making. It's a story of struggle, love and compromise even in the most dire of circumstances.

     Pastor Gordon MacDonald revisits the fictional New England congregation of his critically acclaimed book Who Stole My Church to deal with a new dilemma: What's his church's story? What is it doing that justifies its existence? The importance of these questions is anything but fiction.Through a series of e-mails and discussions with friends and parishioners, Pastor Gordon's search for their story leads him to realize that the future of the Christian faith, and thus the church, is at risk. As MacDonald says, "We seem to know how to get unchurched people to visit our buildings. We even seem to know how to draw them across the line into a declaration of personal faith in Jesus. But what we do not seem to know is how to cultivate spiritually deep people. Tomorrow's church could be headed for trouble."Deep people. People who possess spiritual awareness and maturity, people with solid, grounded, life-altering faith. MacDonald shows that the church needs people with a passion for God's presence and a desperate hunger to seek him above all things. Join Pastor MacDonald and his congregation on their quest to cultivate spiritual depth and grow into a community of believers whose hearts and minds are truly focused on God.

    Miller delivers!" - Jeffrey Long, MD Reports of near-death experiences (NDEs) are flooding the media with books, articles and interviews. People describe hovering over their bodies, details of their surgeries, talking with deceased relatives, and reviewing their lives in vivid detail, often while their brains should be incapable of producing rational thought or memories. While the accounts are no doubt interesting, do they provide any solid evidence for the afterlife and the existence of God? Miller argues, in nontechnical and engaging prose, that it does indeed. He began his study doubting that NDEs provided such evidence, but found himself convinced by the weight of the evidence. In this multiple award-winning book, the reader will explore: The common naturalistic explanations for NDEs. Evidence that NDEs point to God and heaven. The results of 35 years of research into NDEs by doctors and other professionals, fully documented for those who want to study further. A comparison of NDEs with Christian teachings. Recommendations of key books, researchers, and publications for further study. "Can we survive death? Is there a God or a heaven? Miller provides the discerning reader with ample reason to think that the answer to these all-important questions is 'yes'." - Dr. Peter Schaefer, Senior Research Psychologist, Department of Defense

    WILL YOU JOIN WHAT GOD IS DOING? Revival Starts Here is a short and pointed conversation about the way in which biblical prayer and fasting can prepare the way for fresh revival in our churches, our cities, our nation—and beyond. In this book, Dave Clayton lights a signal fire as he calls the 21st-century church to return to the Lord through prayer and fasting. If you long to experience revival, then this conversation is for you. Will you join what God is doing? “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” —2 CHRONICLES 7:14

    Providence is "God's purposeful sovereignty." Its extent reaches down to the flight of electrons, up to the movements of galaxies, and into the heart of man. Its nature is wise and just and good. And its goal is the Christ-exalting glorification of God through the gladness of a redeemed people in a new world.Drawing on a lifetime of theological reflection, biblical study, and practical ministry, pastor and author John Piper leads us on a stunning tour of the sightings of God's providence--from Genesis to Revelation--to discover the all-encompassing reality of God's purposeful sovereignty over all of creation and all of history. Piper invites us to experience the profound effects of knowing the God of all-pervasive providence: the intensifying of true worship, the solidifying of wavering conviction, the strengthening of embattled faith, the toughening of joyful courage, and the advance of God's mission in this world.

     Part 1: Ghosts in the Graveyard Nothing says New Orleans like a funeral parade. With the jazz and zydeco playing, Francesca Theriot, her family and friends celebrate the life of their recently deceased grandmother. But when the parade gets to the cemetery, they discover that someone has broken into the Theriot family mausoleum. The only thing gone is the gold cat idol that has always watched over the Theriot family’s dead. Newly promoted Sergeant Louis Adams agrees to help Frankie Theriot find out what happened to the missing gold idol. He’s pretty sure the entire thing is a hoax, but Frankie isn’t the kind of woman you refuse. As the two of them investigate the grave robbery, it becomes apparent that there is something truly strange about the Theriot family. They have a really weird affinity for cats. It does not take Louis long to realize that Frankie has more secrets than he could have possibly imagined. Part 2: Blue Moon Bayou When a young woman shows up on the doorstep of the Theriot’s big rambling house in New Orleans’ Garden District, Remy Theriot is ready to send her packing. His family has had enough drama lately and being suspicious of a stranger is in Remy’s nature anyway. But Olivia Jones has a fantastic story to tell. Olivia needs help. Her own family is being pushed off their land by the Bordelons. Theriots and Bordelons don’t get along. So, while Remy doesn’t trust Olivia, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. Part 3: A Bird in the Hand Sasha Theriot figures she has the best of both worlds. She teaches a few cooking classes at the family cooking school and spends the rest of her time reading palms and tarot cards on the square. But when she has a very strange customer one morning at her card table, she cannot help but think that something big is about to happen. Nick Bordelon has obviously come to the square for a reason, but Sasha has a feeling that even the big man from the bayou isn’t entirely sure what that reason is. Part 4: Love and Bread Pudding Sophie Theriot is tired of running the Theriot School of Cooking without any Theriots to help out with the hard work. This nonsense with the Bordelons and the Theriots’ own financial disasters have chased everyone away. Then Sophie meets the perfect man, employee, cook, and pretty much all around nice guy, Xander Borders. Xander is looking for work and Sophie needs help. Soon enough Sophie and Xander are entering their recipes into a local radio show’s holiday cooking contest. But Sophie is starting to realize that there’s something a little off about her new employee and she’s not exactly sure what it is. Part 5: Take the Tiger by the Tail Adrien Theriot is tired of the recent and constant harassment of the Bordelons. In Adrien’s opinion, the Theriots haven’t done anything wrong. Gaspar Bordelon and his hang ups about secrecy and hiding in the shadows are from a time in the past and they just aren’t valid anymore. But instead of doing something about it, Adrien’s aunt Euphemia is determined to do nothing. Going against Euphemia’s wishes, Adrien makes the trip out to Pontchartrain and meets with Gaspar face to face. That’s when Adrien realizes that Gaspar has truly lost his mind, in a very dangerous manner.
