Liza's Second Chance (The Amish Charm Bakery #1)
by Molly JebberThe sweet welcome of straight-from-the-oven sugar cookies and hot cocoa. The warm invitation of apple pie and fresh cold milk. In 1912 Ohio, the Amish Charm Bakery is the heart of a close-knit, faith-nourished community, where people can find a refuge, a place to start again—and love that can make their lives new . . . For Liza Schrock, the bakery her late husband bought was an unexpected haven from their unhappy arranged marriage. Now she's perfectly content to cook up mouth-watering delights for her hometown, give to those alone or in trouble—and remain happily unwed. And though she's willing to give handsome, newly-arrived widower Jacob Graber all the help he desperately needs, she is sure they can stay just friends . . . But as Liza also tries to aid Jacob's troubled teenage daughter, she starts caring far too much for his gentle ways and steadfast hopes. And when a wrenching secret she must keep comes between them, can Liza find the faith to risk opening her heart again—and reach for one more chance at real love? Praise for Molly Jebber’s Keepsake Pocket Quilt novels “Endearing characters and a delightful story make this a keeper for fans of Amish romance.” --Emma Miller “Jebber is a talented author who always gives readers what they have come to expect from her books.” – RT Book Reviews

Lizzie and Emma: The Buggy Spoke Series, Book 2 (The Buggy Spoke Series #2)
by Linda BylerIn Little Amish Lizzie, the first book in the Buggy Spoke series, five-year-old Lizzie moves to a new home with her family and must adjust to a new school, new house, and lots of new people. But some things stay the same, including her spunky, sensitive, and mischievous personality. It feels like her big sister Emma is just the opposite—she is sweet, respectful, and good at just about everything that Lizzie isn’t. When Lizzie and Emma begins, Lizzie is eight years old and it’s not that she wishes she weren’t the kind of girl who loves hiding for hours to read a good book or racing down too-steep hills on her sled or eating lots of doughnuts. But she does wish she could make herself walk instead of running once in awhile so she wouldn’t get in trouble at school, and she knows no one thinks she’s as pretty or as good as Emma is. Times are hard for the Glick family—Dat’s business is still not doing well and his cheerful optimism is beginning to wear thin. Lizzie and Emma are young, but they begin to understand that Dat and Mam don’t have enough money and their family might be in trouble. Will the sisters be able to put aside their differences to support each other through their family’s financial struggles, tragedy in their community, and yet more changes? This is the second book in the Buggy Spoke series, which follows Lizzie through her tumultuous teenage years as she struggles to mesh her hot temper and willful ways with her Amish faith. These books are the prequels to Linda Byler’s bestselling Lizzie Searches for Love Trilogy, geared to a younger audience (ages 8-10). Reminiscent of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House series, these books are delightful accounts of another way of life; each chapter is filled with vivid descriptions of Amish food, farms, and traditions. The series explores themes of respecting parents, not fitting in, sibling rivalry, recognizing your own shortcomings and gifts, and reconciling a strong personality with an abiding faith.
Lizzie's Carefree Years: The Buggy Spoke Series, Book 3 (Buggy Spoke Series)
by Linda BylerBestselling Amish novelist Linda Byler’s third book in the Buggy Spoke series for young readersLizzie is nine years old now and adjusting her new home in Jefferson County. There’s so much to get used to—a new school, new friends, new ways of dressing and speaking. Mostly Lizzie loves her new life, but it’s not easy getting used to so many changes at once. Perhaps the hardest part is growing up itself. Suddenly her older sister Emma expects Lizzie to “act her age,” but what does that even mean? Is it wrong to want to splash in slush puddles, play games with friends, and run through the woods? Lizzie wants to be a good girl, but it’s confusing to know when it’s ok to have fun, how she should pray, and why she still does naughty things. Mam and Dat seem to have enough money now—there’s plenty of food and the kids even get extra special Christmas gifts. Mam smiles more and Dat seems more relaxed. But when Lizzie and Emma wake up to a room full of smoke, they realize danger can strike even when things feel the most secure. Will their new community come to their aid after the fire? And why does God allow such scary things to happen? This is the third book in the Buggy Spoke series, which follows Lizzie through her tumultuous teenage years as she struggles to mesh her hot temper and willful ways with her Amish faith. These books are the prequels to Linda Byler’s bestselling Lizzie Searches for Love Trilogy and are geared to a younger audience (ages 8–10). Reminiscent of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House series, these books are delightful accounts of another way of life; each chapter is filled with vivid descriptions of Amish food, farms, and traditions.

Llegar Hasta Quién Podria Perecer: La Historia de Vida de un Predicador Rural
by Dr Johnny WoodardDesde la pequeña comunidad de Morgan s Bluff, ubicada a orillas del río Sabine cerca de Orange, Texas, hasta Israel, la tierra donde nuestro Señor Jesucristo vino a este mundo para redimir a la humanidad caída de su condición pecaminosa. Esta es una increíble historia de cómo Dios puede usar a cualquiera que elija para difundir Su Palabra. Este libro se reirá de las historias divertidas que tuvieron lugar en la pesca, la caza, la navegación, los autos rápidos y las bromas estudiantiles que se hicieron en mis años escolares. Hay relatos humorísticos de ladrones de tiendas que fueron atrapados y aterrorizados por los gerentes de las tiendas, así como relatos sorprendentes de cómo Dios proveyó una y otra vez para un ministerio simple que se ha convertido en un ministerio mundial, alcanzando miles de millones con la Palabra de Dios. Puedes leer muchos testimonios recientes de la vida real de estudiantes que han sufrido una gran persecución a manos del enemigo y también ser bendecidos al leer cómo Dios ha usado este ministerio para transformar sus vidas a través de Su Palabra. Este libro es la historia de mi vida desde los humildes comienzos en Orange, Texas, hasta ahora, Presidente del Instituto Internacional de Correspondencia Bíblica Presidente del Pan de Vida. Pero aún más que eso, es un testimonio de cómo Dios puede usar a cualquiera que esté dispuesto a permitirle dirigir y dirigir sus vidas y confiar en su capacidad para hacerlo, y no en sus propias habilidades. Para Dios sea la gloria cómo Él continúa alcanzando al hombre caído con Su amor a través de hombres y mujeres simples que no temen vivir por fe. Dr. Johnny Woodard DD
