Book Description
When a good girl meets a rockstar bad boy, sparks fly. A spicy new romance for fans of Robinne Lee, by USA TODAY bestselling author CC Monroe. Sadie I’ve always been religious, and any man who comes into my life needs to understand that I have a strong moral compass. One day I hope to settle down with a man who shares my values and desire for a family and a wholesome life. There is no room for anything less, no room for speed bumps or roadblocks. Then one man threw a wrench in my spinning tire. That man made me question my beliefs and what true faith really is. Ben Cooper—my very own sinner. Ben Each blow to the face feels glorious. I crave the pain from my back alley opponent. The high I get from each fight that I provoke is the same one I get when I strum my guitar and hit the high notes on the mic. Violence is my decadence and music is my redemption. I love beautiful women, the taste of whiskey on my tongue, and the smell of tobacco on my breath. I’m a man with no morals and no plan. I’m a man with only the promise of the day I'm living. Until I find the most beautiful melody, fully dressed and with a cross around her neck. Sadie McCallister—my very own saint.

Just Love

ISBN: 1905564317
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Written with sceptics in mind as well as Christians struggling with the concept of a God who punishes sin. God must punish sin? How could anyone say such a thing? God is love, isn’t he? So how can he seek retribution? People often find the Christian faith attractive, except for this unpopular subject of an angry God, who, time and again in the Bible, acts in judgement and punishment. Even Christians who accept the Bible as the authoritative Word of God can feel deeply uncomfortable about it all. This book was born out of the author’s own struggles with this issue, and he writes with empathy as well as intellectual rigour, answering questions such as: Why can’t God just 'pass over' wrong-doing? How does 'the God who punishes' fit with 'the God who is love'? And why is the death of Jesus on a cross the ultimate expression of God's love? Amazingly, we discover that only by understanding God’s determination to punish sin can we truly appreciate His astounding love - unimaginably and uniquely, love that is truly just, yet freely available to every one of us. Written with sceptical non-Christians in mind as well as Christians struggling with the concept of a God who punishes sin.

A dramatic and thought-provoking novel of one family's triumph in the face of the hardships and challenges of the post-Civil War South. The Wake of the Wind, J.

In the face of constant threats, they manage not only to survive but to succeed--their crops grow, their children thrive, they educate themselves and others. Lifee and Mor pass their intelligence, determination, and talents along to their children, the next generation to surge forward. At once tragic and triumphant, this is an epic story that captures with extraordinary authenticity the most important struggle of the last hundred years.
