Sound Of A Million Dreams
$20.99Add to cart20 Chapters
Additional Info
What does a dream sound like? “The first time the sound of a dream slammed, hard, in the center of my spirit, was almost a decade ago. It’s the sound that has led me on the journey whose threads are pulled through this book, an intimate journey that I’ve often struggled to comprehend; it’s been unlike anything else I’ve ever known. It happened in a coffee shop during my thirtieth year, and in less than two hours it would cause me to listen to my life anew.” In these pages writer and speaker Suanne Camfield writes of the varied dreams that she has pursued over the course of her life. With captivating and eloquent stories and concepts, she guides us through what it feels like to have a stirring deep inside of us-and how God guides and shapes us through that sense of calling. This is not a book primarily about vocation or even discernment. It is a book about being a dreamer who is shaped by God. It is about having the wisdom and courage to step into the places of our most vulnerable longing. -
And Still She Laughs
$19.99Add to cartKate Merrick examines the Bible’s gritty stories of resilient women as well as her own experience losing a child-a journey followed by more than a million on prayfordaisy.com-to reveal the reality of surprising joy and deep hope even in the midst of heartache. Kate Merrick faced the crippling grief that life can bring when her five-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer. Three and a half years of suffering followed, accompanied by fervent prayer, hospital stays, emotional agony, and teeth-grinding fear. And in the end, her baby girl was gone. How was Kate to believe again, to hope again?
To find out, she turned to stories in the Bible of real women who dealt with pain and survived. How did Sarah, after twenty-five years of achingly empty arms, learn in the end to laugh without bitterness? How did Bathsheba, defiled by the king who then had her husband killed, come to walk in strength and dignity, to smile without fear of the future? In And Still She Laughs, Merrick writes poignantly and transparently about finding joy in sorrow and shows how we-just like the ordinary women seen in the Bible-can rise above unbearable circumstances and live fully. In the middle of whatever hardships we face, we can smile, cry, and come away full-laughing without fear and eagerly looking for what is to come.

$14.99Add to cartMoms and daughters will be empowered to embrace the girls of grace God designed them to be instead of conforming to society’s mold of normal.
As a mom of two daughters, Catherine understands how unique the mother/daughter bond truly is. A few years ago, she looked tirelessly for a Bible study to share with her tween daughter.

Control Girl : Lessons On Surrendering Your Burden Of Control From Seven Wo
$16.99Add to cart“I control because I care.”
“I just want to be sure of a happy ending.”
“I worry that everything is spinning out of control.”Many women can identify with statements like these. They have a compulsion to make everything turn out just right and are willing to do anything to make it happen. But this unbalanced pursuit of control makes those around them anxious and defensive. And when they realize control is slipping from their grasp, they lose control of themselves and react in anger or fear.
Shannon Popkin knows this struggle inside and out. Keeping her inner Control Girl hidden is a full-time job. Thankfully, she also knows another very important truth: no woman has to be a Control Girl.
In this encouraging book, Shannon invites seven Control Girls from the Bible into the conversation. She examines each story for the moments in which grasping for control circumvented God’s plans for good, whether it was Eve’s desire to know instead of to trust, Sarah’s inability to wait for God to move, or Rebekah’s controlling hand on her family’s future. Finally, Shannon finds God’s perspective on each of the problems and then reveals how readers’ can have their own happy endings in similar situations.
The author shares from her own struggles and follows each Bible study with questions for personal reflection. In the end, controlling women will find insight into their own experience, peace in the knowledge that God is in control, and relief that they are free.

Silver Lining : A Practical Guide For Christian Grandmothers
$15.00Add to cartAt last, a practical, Christian guide for grandmothers — and for younger women preparing for that stage of life! Since our culture is in love with immaturity, advice written for “older” women can tend to focus on changes: empty nests, new priorities, grown children getting married, etc. But the Bible tells us to focus on the things that don’t change: In all seasons of life, God has good works prepared in advance for us to walk in. And whether you’re a young woman, married, unmarried, widowed, middle-aged, or a great-grandma, you never quit exercising that faith in Christ.
Grandkids and getting older, dinners and hospitality, mentorship and being an “in-law” all come with their own stretches of bumpy road, but faith and joy (and a little of Nancy Wilson’s practical advice) go a long way. Women travelling through this season should be thinking in terms of family legacy — and in terms of eternity — as they seek godly wisdom, great joy, and a silver-haired crown of glory.

Experiencing The Love Of God (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Add to cartMost of us live our lives at a breakneck pace. We spend our days working at our jobs, taking care of our families, and serving others in our lives. All of this effort can, at times, leave us feeling overworked, overextended, and-if we are really honest with ourselves-underappreciated. It’s during these times that we especially need to experience the love of God. This is a tender sort of love that can thaw our hearts, cheer our dispositions, and remind us what this life is really about. Yet it is also a tough sort of love in that it calls us to examine ourselves and lead the kind of lives that God wants us to lead. In this study, readers will look at key passages in the Bible that speak about this kind of love, how they can get it from the Source, and what it calls them to do. They will also discover the precious nature of this love that God holds out to them and how they can receive with their whole hearts.

How do we know what he wants us to do? In this study, readers will learn how to recognize the voice of God through his Word, through “quiet nudgings” in their spirit, and even through the wise counsel of others. They will also discover how God’s voice always calls them to know him more, to be obedient to him, to wait on his perfect timing, and to always have faith in him.

Building Your Strengths
$14.99Add to cartGod has given each of us gifts and abilities, but for some reason we often have trouble embracing this truth.

In this study, readers will come to understand that the way to survive these moments of insecurity is to understand their true God-given gifts and strengths, rehearse God’s acts of faithfulness, and receive encouragement from others. Most of all, they will discover that true strength comes from leaning on God in all situations and using their gifts to shine his light and glory to the world around them.

Finding Rest In A Busy World (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Add to cartEach and every day, we are confronted with all kinds of opportunities that vie for our attention and threaten to sap our energy and time. Many of these opportunities are good in and of themselves, such as serving at our kids’ school, or helping at our church, or leading a Bible study, or even taking on extra work to help support our families financially. However, if we are not careful with our time, we can soon find ourselves taking on so many obligations that our lives become blur of rushing from one event to another. What our souls really crave is rest-and yet that is one of those treasures we often ignore or fail to prioritize. In this study, readers will examine what the Bible says about the benefits of rest and how it is a gift that God wants them to have. They will also look at how to get through stressful times, apply the brakes and set boundaries, and give their worries to God so they can find true peace and rest in his provision.

Eve In Exile
$16.00Add to cartThe swooning ladies of the Victorian Age and the suburban housewives of the 1950s genuinely needed to be liberated. That much is indisputable. So, First-Wave feminists held rallies for women’s suffrage. Then, Second-Wave feminists marched for Prohibition, jobs, and abortion. Today, Third-Wave feminists stand firmly for nobody’s quite sure what. But the modern woman-who uses psychotherapeutic drugs at a rate never before seen in history-needs liberating now more than ever. The truth is, feminists don’t know what liberation is. They have led us into a very boring dead end.
Eve in Exile sets aside all stereotypes of mid-century housewives, of china-doll femininity, of Victorians fainting, of women not allowed to think for themselves or talk to the men about anything interesting or important. It dismisses the pencil-skirted and stiletto-heeled executives of TV, the outspoken feminists freed from all that hinders them, the brave career women in charge of their own destinies. Once those fictionalized stereotypes are out of the way-whether they’re things that make you gag or things you think look pretty fun-Christians can focus on real women. What did God make real women for?

Crowder also explores historical understandings of motherhood in the African American community and how these help to inform present-day perspectives. She includes questions for discussion with each chapter.

Its Not Fair
$18.99Add to cartHey, you. Are you debating whether to destroy something with your bare hands or curl up on the couch for a decade or two?
This book will solve all of your problems. (Sheesh, that’s aiming a bit high.)
This book is a cup of hot coffee, a ginormous bar of chocolate, or the magical fairy that comes over and does your dishes while you lie in the fetal position clutching a fluffy pillow. Sometimes when life falls apart the only acceptable response is hysterical laughter. When things get so far gone, so spectacularly a world away from any plans you made or dreams you dreamed, you feel it bubbling up inside of you and you scream, “It’s not fair!” And it isn’t. Fair is an illusion, and life is weird.
This book will help you laugh at life’s absurd backhands. This book is an empathetic groan of our collective unfairnesses. You might want to throw it across the room, and you might want to hug it like your new best friend. This book is about us sitting down together in our shared mess, taking a deep breath, gripping hands, looking the hard stuff in its beady little eyeballs, and bahahahaaing at it.
Life’s not fair, but we can learn to love this life we didn’t choose.

1st Corinthians Womens Bible Study Participant Book (Student/Study Guide)
$17.99Add to cartRelationships are messy. We’re all different and imperfect, and we can struggle to get along–especially with those who disagree with us. Often we find ourselves divided–even as Christians. How can we work out our differences and disagreements with humility and grace, always showing the love of Christ, while still remaining true to what we believe? The Apostle Paul wrote to the Christians living in Corinth about this very thing. The cultural backdrop of Corinth was even more overtly sinful than our culture today, yet Paul boldly encouraged the Corinthian Christians not to ridicule one another or outsiders but to work together to show the love of Christ. In this six-week study we will explore Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians to learn how we as Christians are to deal with differences and divisions–whether in the workplace, neighborhood, school, home, social media community, or church. We’ll discover that the answer is living and sharing the radical love of Jesus Christ, and we’ll unpack what this means and how we can live it out day by day. The Participant Book includes five days of lessons for each week, combining study of Scripture with personal reflection, application, and prayer.
