Call To The Blue Ridge
$24.99
Breaking with tradition, Matthew and Helen Slater leave city jobs to accept the pastorate of a small church in the mountains of North Georgia. Among the church members and townspeople they encounter are Tommy Jones, a young veteran dealing with the aftermath of war; Pa and Ma Mac, a beloved elderly couple; Paula Mason, a graduating nursing student; Ben and Bart, the “hell-raisers” of the county; the hermit, Ole Silas, whose past and present are shrouded in mystery; and Robin, a beautiful “Little Yankee” in a wheelchair. As characters blend like colors on a canvas, you will experience the tragic, the comical, the intriguing, and the inspirational. Chapters of love and tenderness interspersed with hunting, fishing, and hiking make this a must-read for male and female alike. Such is the enduring essence of the human spirit, which continues to inspire the call-the Call to the Blue Ridge.

Devil At My Heels
$14.99Add to cartAthletically gifted, Louis Zamperini propelled himself from the tough streets of Southern California to the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and to an NCAA mile record at USC that stood for 20 years. When war came he left the track for a B-24-a move that would have heartbreaking consequences. On a routine mission his plane crashed into the shark-infested Pacific and he would drift 2,000 miles for 47 days before being found by the Japanese. As a prisoner of war, Zamperini endured two years of horrible torture and humiliation at the hands of a psychopathic guard nicknamed “The Bird.” Yet Zamperini endured and returned home a hero.
Unfortunately, the terrible memory of his experiences haunted him. Zamperini turned to alcohol and spiraled into the depths of despair until a young preacher named Billy Graham helped him rediscover the faith that would eventually lead him to return to Japan and personally forgive all his now-imprisoned captors. Moving and unforgettable, terrifying and inspirational, Devil At My Heels is not to be missed.
