Daughter Of Rome
$17.99A woman with a devastating secret. A man bent on proving his worth. A chance encounter that catapults them into the heart of history.
When the daughter of a prominent Roman general meets a disinherited Jewish immigrant, neither one can dream of God’s plan to transform them into the most influential couple of the early church. Nor can they anticipate the mountains that will threaten to bury them. Their courtship unwittingly shadowed by murder and betrayal, Priscilla and Aquila slowly work to build a community of believers, while their lives grow increasingly complicated thanks to a shaggy dog, a mysterious runaway, and a ruthless foe desperate for love. But when they’re banished from their home by a capricious emperor, they must join forces with an unusual rabbi named Paul and fight to turn treachery into redemption.
With impeccable research and vivid detail, Daughter of Rome is both an emotive love story and an immersive journey through first-century Rome and Corinth, reminding readers once again why Debbie Macomber has said that “no one brings the Bible to life like Tessa Afshar.”

Week In The Life Of A Slave
$20.99“I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, who became my son while I was in chains. Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.”
These words, written by the apostle Paul to a first-century Christian named Philemon, are tantalizingly brief. Indeed, Paul’s epistle to Philemon is one of the shortest books in the entire Bible. While it’s direct enough in its way, it certainly leaves plenty to the imagination. A Week in the Life of a Slave is a vivid imagining of that story. From the pen of an accomplished New Testament scholar, the narrative follows the slave Onesimus from his arrival in Ephesus, where the apostle Paul is imprisoned, and fleshes out the lived context of that time and place, supplemented by numerous sidebars and historical images. John Byron’s historical fiction is at once a social and theological critique of slavery in the Roman Empire and a gripping adventure story, set against the exotic backdrop of first-century Ephesus.

Sra Lewis – (Spanish)
$15.99En una amistad muy improbable, ella encontro el amor. En un mundo donde las mujeres fueron silenciadas, ella encontro su voz. En un Dios mas alla de su religion familiar, ella encontro la fe.
De la autora de exitos en ventas del New York Times, Patti Callahan, llega una exquisita novela sobre Joy Davidman, la mujer a la que C.S. Lewis llamo “mi mundo entero”. Cuando la poeta y escritora Joy Davidman comenzo a escribirle cartas a C.S. Lewis -conocido como Jack- ella buscaba respuestas espirituales, no amor. Despues de todo, el amor no lograba mantener unido a su desmoronado matrimonio. Todo acerca de la neoyorkina Joy parecia estar mal para el catedratico de Oxford y amado escritor de Narnia, pero sus mentes se fueron amalgamando en sus cartas. Embarcandose en la aventura de su vida, Joy viajo de Estados Unidos a Inglaterra y luego regreso, enfrentando angustia y pobreza, descubriendo la amistad y la fe, y contra todo pronostico, encontrando un amor que aun la amenaza de la muerte no podia destruir.
En esta exploracion magistral de una de las mejores historias de amor de los tiempos modernos, nos encontramos con una brillante escritora, una madre ferozmente independiente y una mujer apasionada que cambio la vida de este respetado autor e inspiro libros que todavia nos encantan y cambian nuestra vida. Joy vivio en un momento en que las mujeres no debian tener voz y, sin embargo, su amor por Jack les otorgo las dos voces que ellos no sabian que poseian.
Una fascinante novela historica y una vislumbre de la vida de un escritor, combinadas en una pieza. Este libro es, sobre todo, una historia de amor: un amor por la literatura y las ideas y un amor entre marido y mujer que, al final, no resulto imposible en absoluto.
