Singsation
$21.99This second release from co-publishers Warner Books and Walk Worthy Press makes a solid contribution to the limited pool of quality Christian fiction titles written for and by African-Americans. Deborah Anne Peterson sings hymns at her small hometown church, but envisions herself performing in much glitzier venues. A fortuitous encounter with rap star Triage Blue gives her a chance to break into the big time. As she climbs the ladder of success and wrestles with the temptations that go with it, she wonders is this really what God wants her to do with her talent? The novel pushes the parameters of traditional Christian fiction with characters who have long discussions about underwear and thongs, engage in some French kissing and exclaim, “Oh my God!” The sexual situations aren’t graphic, but they are more titillating than most CBA readers are used to, although noticeably toned down from Walk Worthy’s first book, Temptation. The reader must sometimes suspend belief; in less than a year, Deborah changes from a country girl into a music star who performs at the Grammys. Another character’s deathbed conversion is also less than satisfying. But the portrayal of Deborah’s loving relationship with her parents is both touching and refreshing. This is a laudable effort to bring an African-American perspective and a slightly edgier tone into Christian fiction, while keeping the gospel message up front and center.

Womens Intuition
$20.99Samson, author of The Church Ladies, stakes out her claim as a novelist of distinction for readers who enjoy evangelical Christian fiction but often choke on the pabulum that passes for it. Larkspur Summerville is a 41-year-old paranoid virtual recluse who for 20 years has kept a secret from her family-a secret that now threatens to become her undoing. Raised Methodist, her sanity is partially tethered to playing the organ for St. Dominic’s Catholic Church and experiencing the loving friendship of its priests, although Lark admits, “The whole Mary thing unsettles me.” Lark spends most of her free time running a toll-free prayer line, 1-777-IPRAY4U. When Lark’s house burns to the ground, she is forced to seek refuge with her estranged mother, Leslie, and Leslie’s live-in housekeeper and Internet guru, Prisma Percy. Rounding out the household is Lark’s hip, artsy daughter, Flannery, a barista at Starbucks, whose sanity is the glue that holds her strange family together. The finely crafted, first-person narratives alternate among the four women, with a short ending chapter from Lark’s brother, Newly. Samson occasionally overwrites and is a little heavy on the dialogue, but her prose is mostly excellent, and the characters appealing and compelling. The centerpiece of the novel is its beautiful depiction of faith and fear that avoids canned Christian gospel presentation scenes but is clear in its message. With this offering, Samson places herself in the ranks of the CBA’s best novelists, with writing that has the potential to find a general readership as well.

Hometown Legend
$21.99The coauthor of the blockbuster Left Behind series inks the appealing, happily-ever-after Hometown Legend, about a small town in severe financial straits and its former championship football team, written in a made-for-the-movies style that will earn author Jerry Jenkins some new fans. There are some likable characters in this yarn. Lonely widower Cal Sawyer is juggling several balls at once: raising his teenage daughter Rachel, helping coach the down-at-the-heels Athens City High football team, and trying to keep the American Leather Football Company from going belly up. He doesn’t count on the impact Elvis Presley Jackson will have on the football season–and on his daughter. Bev Raschke, Sawyer’s single, 40-something assistant, has her eye on him, but as Sawyer says, “She’s got two cats, and that’s about all I need to know about a woman.” Romance is inevitable. As the novel unfolds, mostly told in Sawyer’s rambling, Southern drawl, we see trouble brewing in his personal life, on the football team, and with the unfolding of Elvis’s past. But never fear–there’s a happy ending in sight. No loose ends are left dangling, and there’s a heartwarming, feel-good wrap-up with a bit of a spin that will satisfy Left Behind aficionados who enjoy a predestined finish to their leisure reading.

Emerald Windows

Now, as a struggling artist, she accepts a commission to return to Hayden to redesign the stained-glass windows in the city’s historic church only to find that the person who hired her was in fact Nick Marcello. Nick is now a Christian, but that doesn’t stop the gossip from starting all over again once Brooke returns, sparked by Abby Hemphill, a trustee of the church. Brooke’s family is greatly bothered by the gossip, especially her younger sister Roxy, now in high school, who has problems of her own and is in fact, as Brooke discovers to her dismay, somehow involved with a mystery married man, Bill. Despite the hypocrisy of many of the church members, Brooke begins to see the mystery of God’s relationship with man as she designs the window panels. When Brooke comes to a point of surrender to God, she and Nick confess to each other that, although they didn’t act on their feelings for each other years ago, those feelings were nevertheless there, contributing to the feelings of guilt they’ve suffered all these years. They kiss. Meanwhile, Abby Hemphill is finally successful in convincing the church trustees to freeze all funds for the window renovation. Nick and Brooke offer to continue the work for free. In a Gift of the Magi touch, Nick and Brooke, unbeknownst to each other, each sell something of great value to finance the work.

Brooke tells Bill and Abby she will go to the press with the whole story unless it stops now. As the book ends, Brooke and Nick are engaged and church members raise enough money to reimburse them for their expenses and labor in finishing the church windows.

Joshua And The Shepherd
$15.99JOSHUA AND THE SHEPHERD
A GENTLEMAN NAMED JOSHUA AND A SIMPLE MESSAGE THAT COULD REVOLUTIONIZE THE CHURCH…
It is the end of a bitter cold winter. A crowd of people files into a cathedral to celebrate the consecration of a new bishop-a good man, they think, strict in doctrine but capable of compassion. A man of tradition, not of reform. A ‘company man.’ His name is David Campbell.
And sitting in the last pew of the cathedral is a clean-shaven man of ordinary build, with gentle hazel eyes. His name is Joshua.
Within twenty-four hours of his first encounter with Joshua, David Campbell will propose the most far-reaching reforms in a millennium, reforms to destroy sectarian barriers, reforms to change the direction of the church, reforms to return Christianity to its founders with a simple message. With Joshua as his mentor, David Campbell-the Shepherd-preaches to Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, and Jews of the universal truth of God’s love. It is a message that changes everyone it touches. And no one who reads Joshua and the Shepherd will ever forget it.

Additional Info
Divine and Human stands apart as both a landmark in literary history and master-piece of spiritual and ethical reflection. Suppressed in turn by the tsarist and Soviet regime, the tales contained in this book have, for the most part, never been published in English until now. Emerging at last, they offer western readers fresh glimpses of novelist and philosopher Leo Tolstoy. Divine and Human consists of choice selections from The Sunday Reading Stories, the second volume in a two-part work titled The Circle of Reading. In the words of translator Peter Sekirin, “Tolstoy considered The Circle of Reading to be the major work of his life. Considering its difficult history, it is not surprising that only recently has it been rediscovered.” From its sparkling vignettes to its lengthier stories, Divine and Human probes the complexities of life and faith. Its characters range the spectrum of human emotions and qualities, from hatred to love and joy to grief; from sublime nobility to grotesque self-absorption. Tolstoy’s world, though far-removed from today’s information age, becomes our world — indeed, has always been and always will be our world. Motor cars may have replaced horse-drawn cars, but human hearts remain the same, and questions of truth, mercy, forgiveness, devotion, justice, and the nature of God knock as insistently on the doors of our lives today as they did in Tolstoy’s time. Welcome, then, to Divine and Human: a buried treasure at last unearthed, and certain to be prized by Tolstoy readers and lovers of great literature.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Miniatures And Morals
$16.00Jane Austen’s novels are not only still widely read, but also continue to influence modern film and literature. In both their moral content and their focused, highly detailed, “miniaturist” execution, they reveal Austen’s mastery of the art of fiction and her concern for Christian virtues exercised within communities. Her sharp wit and sense of irony entertain, edify, and challenge both men and women alike.

For all who desire a richer appreciation of her enduring genius, Leithart offers a hearthside seat.
