At age fourteen, a startling remark shatters her dreams of marriage. She prepares to become a teacher to avoid the stigma of becoming an old maid. Maybelle is drawn by curiosity to the red brick house on an adjacent farm that is rumored to contain evil spirits. She meets Peter Foltz, the wealthy horse trader who owns the red brick house. She falls in love. When a disaster destroys her dreams, she feels doomed and believes God has deserted her. Unable to face the world, she goes into seclusion with an unforgiving heart. God opens a window for her through a little boy. Her mother’s death and her sister’s wedding push her back into the world of the living. Does Maybelle become trapped by evil spirits in the red brick house? Will she face a lifetime of loneliness if her husband goes to prison? Tamrock Creek and the Meadow Cemetery carry her secrets. Will she ever find it in her heart to forgive?

Ruthless Trust : The Ragamuffins Path To God
$14.99We are made for the love of God, and nothing less will ever satisfy us. In his acclaimed bestseller, The Ragamuffin Gospel, Brennan Manning showed us the powerful truth that the divine gifts of love is ever present for us regardless of the state of our lives. Now in this challenging sequel, he turns to our primary obstacle to living fully within this divine love — the lack of “ruthless trust.”
Through rich stories and deep insights, Manning shows us how true and radical trust can transform everything in our lives. No matter where we are on our path of discipleship, he offers encouragement to shed the limitations of fear, shame, and doubt through complete reliance upon God. The way of Ruthless Trust is not an abstract theory; it is that very practical and demanding path that each of us must follow in response to God’s love.

Great Divorce
$17.99C.S. Lewis takes us on a profound journey through both heaven and hell in this engaging allegorical tale. Using his extraordinary descriptive powers, Lewis introduces us to supernatural beings who will change the way we think about good and evil. In The Great Divorce C.S. Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer, in a dream, finds himself in a bus which travels between Hell and Heaven. This is the starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil which takes issue with William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.
