Want to know more about the 18th president
of the United States? This in-depth 900+ page biography of Grant is an amazing informative piece of a man misunderstood for the potential he possessed.

This is a work of nonfiction. A handful of the people
in the book have been given pseudonyms; otherwise, everyone is identified by their real names. We have worked hard to be accurate and, just as crucial to a book like this, emotionally honest. But memory is flawed and idiosyncratic, and many of the events described here happened decades ago to a child under intense stress.

Every human life is equally valuable.
Each person's story is vital. This is just one.

God does His best work in the emptiness of our . . .
Insatiable craving for things that don't satisfy
Relational disappointments and loneliness
Frustrated search for purpose and meaning
Relentless desire for comfort and security
Ongoing struggle to live with loss and unfulfilled dreams...

We know the Bible is important, but many of us struggle with it. We're not biblical experts—though we may have started enough reading plans to be really familiar with Genesis. If we're honest, the Bible often intimidates us, confuses us, and reading it doesn't always thrill us.

"An entertaining quest to trace the origins and implications of the names of the roads on which we reside." ―Sarah Vowell, The New York Times Book Review

When most people think about street addresses, if they think of them at all, it is in their capacity to ensure that the postman can deliver mail or a traveler won’t get lost. But street addresses were not invented to help you find your way; they were created to find you. In many parts of the world, your address can reveal your race and class.

This is a novel that I highly suggest seeing the ins and outs of society as a whole. It is based on a crucial time in our country's history: The Indian Wars. This is a novel written from historical events from the eyes of a lady who had left scant diaries of her involvement in a secret trial phase of blending cultures. It is raw. It is open. It is honest. And most of all it shows that man is man and there are good ones and bad ones. Western historical fiction through the eyes of those who had to deal with the worst of it: women. A great read!

Are there legitimate arguments to prevent families from choosing the education that works best for their children? Opponents of school choice have certainly offered many objections, but for decades they have mainly repeated myths either because they did not know any better or perhaps to protect the government schooling monopoly.

An amazing young reader's series based around medieval fantasy!

I will be starting book 7 soon.

An instant New York Times bestseller: An acclaimed legal scholar’s “important” (New York Times) and “fascinating” (Economist) exposé of how the Supreme Court uses unsigned and unexplained orders to change the law behind closed doors.

​

The Supreme Court has always had the authority to issue emergency rulings in exceptional circumstances. But since 2017, the Court has dramatically expanded its use of the behind-the-scenes “shadow docket,” regularly making decisions that affect millions of Americans without public hearings and without explanation, through cryptic late-night rulings that leave lawyers—and citizens—scrambling.  

Wise proverbs stick with us and help us navigate life. Our financial decisions might be guided by "a penny saved is a penny earned," or we might remember not to be lazy from "the early bird catches the worm."

God has given us a book filled with such memorable wisdom--the Old Testament book of Proverbs. In Living Well , you'll look at a different topic in each chapter and learn how Proverbs can guide us to live wiser, more God-honoring lives.
