Marrying a Marshal Box Set


Natalie Dean - 2019
    Marshals and the courageous women they fall in love with? The Marshals of Cypress Creek know all too well the dangers involved with protecting and serving. But what they aren’t prepared for…. Is how hard they fall for the lovely ladies that come their way. Each of the brothers in arms ends up falling in love while solving cases, usually with the help of the ladies, of course. Some of these brides were meant for someone else, but turns out those ‘someone elses’ weren’t all they promised to be. Then one of the brides-to-be is an outlaw’s daughter, and another got caught up in a scheme involving a bunch of kidnapped children. One thing is for sure, all the ladies…and the children, are worth the risk the marshals endure to save them. The books contained in the Marrying a Marshal Box Set are as follows: An Unexpected Treasure, Book One The Dangers of Love, Book Two The Outlaw’s Daughter, Book Three Falling for the Marshal, Book Four No Time for Love, Book Five The Captured Bride, Book Six (This book can only be found in this box set!) Author’s Note: My Marrying a Marshal Series is a PG-13 rated Historical Western Romance box set with plenty of Old West action, romance, and happily-ever-afters. Reviewers of the single published books said each book was better than the last! This is also part of the Hero Hearts series which is a larger multi-author series about men who love, honor, and protect their families, all while having faith in God!

When You Fast: Jesus Has Provided The Solution


Andrew Lavallee - 2017
    In Saint Matthew’s Gospel, Chapter 5, Jesus puts the solution in front of us when he says, “When you fast.” He doesn’t say “If you fast,” but “When you fast.” As Christians, we’re supposed to imitate Jesus. Jesus fasted before every major event in His life. Jesus also tells us that “nothing is impossible for us.” Fasting was so important that Jesus taught it to His disciples to be used as a special deterrent against evil. These are the same evils that plague our world today: the attack on life, the attack on the family, the attack on our religious freedoms, and the attack on Christianity as a whole. It’s especially important to recognize that our actions and our participation can change all of this evil. This is why we are being told by Jesus that “nothing is impossible for us.” In this short booklet, you’ll learn how fasting is a spiritual weapon. You’ll also learn the basics of fasting, what saints, prophets and popes have had to say about fasting, and testimonials of people whose lives have been changed through fasting. Reviews: “The power of fasting with prayer is biblical (Matthew 17:20 from the St. Joseph Bible, New Edition). Jesus said that there are certain demons that cannot be cast out but through prayer and fasting. The two are a powerful team and Andy LaVallee, through his book, provides us with means to accomplish this goal.” Jim and Kerri Caviezel "When You Fast isn’t just one of the best and most thorough books on fasting. In a word, it’s inspiring. Author Andrew LaVallee shares both the physical and spiritual benefits of fasting, from calming our own anxieties to bringing peace to our troubled world. From healing family rifts to opening another’s heart, mind, and soul to the idea of conversion. When You Fast can be a key—can be your key—to a closer relationship with God." Susan Tassone, Author of St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners “Andy LaVallee has provided the method, the motive and the means for the spiritual discipline of fasting. His book explains why fasting is important and encourages many to take part in this vital aspect of spiritual warfare in the world today.” Fr. Dwight Longenecker, Pastor, Speaker, Blogger and Author of Mystery of the Magi: the Quest to Identify the Three Wise Men

Count It All Joy


Helen Roseveare - 2018
    At the end of her life, the reasons for many of her own trials have become clear and joy comes easily. But Roseveare prods herself and her reader to learn to be obedient in the midst of a trial by rejoicing in faith, even if we never understand why God has allowed us to suffer. I am glad that Roseveare left this brief final testament to God's goodness when providence appears to frown. To borrow from the writer of Hebrews: by her faith, she still speaks, even though she is dead.Betsy Childs Howard, Editor at the Gospel Coalition (from book notes)
