Neichelle R. Guidry, Ph.D., Candice Marie Benbow, Kathy Khang, the Rev. Wil Gafney, Ph.D., and Amena Brown. Rachel Held Evans is widely recognized for her theologically astute, profoundly honest, and beautifully personal books, which have guided, instructed, edified, and shaped Christians as they seek to live out a just and loving faith. At the time of her tragic death in 2019, Rachel was working on a new book about wholeheartedness. With the help of her close friend and author Jeff Chu, that work-in-progress has been woven together with some of her other unpublished writings into a rich collection of essays that ask candid questions about the stories we’ve been told -- and the stories we tell -- about our faith, our selves, and our world. This book is for the doubter and the dreamer, the seeker and the sojourner, those who long for a sense of spiritual wholeness as well as those who have been hurt by the Church but can’t seem to let go of the story of Jesus. Through theological reflection and personal recollection, Rachel wrestles with God’s grace and love, looks unsparingly at what the Church is and does, and explores universal human questions about becoming and belonging. An unforgettable, moving, and intimate book.

While hiding out in the woods, we witnessed an unspeakable crime. And we did everything wrong afterward. Connections run deep in our small town. I was pressured into keeping my mouth shut, even though every part of me objected. I assumed I'd always do the right thing in any situation. I was wrong about that and a lot of other things.

Fourteen years later, I learn that the guy who committed that unspeakable crime is running for Congress, and something in me snaps. I can't bear the weight of that knowledge for another second. Finally, I report what I saw, and all hell breaks loose for me and others who were at that long-ago party.

The recipe for forgiveness begins with an open heart and a full belly. Sisters Rose Tillman and her sister Marvina Nash haven't spoken in decades--not since Rose sent Marvina $40 to register their business and Marvina used that money for her own personal purposes. Now retired, Rose wants to open the restaurant they'd once dreamed of. But, to her horror, Rose realizes she's forgotten their mother's secret spice mix recipe, known to only one other person in the world. With no other option, Rose embarks on a two-hour drive to Marvina's house back in Fork City, Texas. Marvina has her own version of what caused their falling out, and it's a far cry from what Rose recalls. Marvina, skeptical and still indignant, but incurably polite, figures she'll give Rose a chance to speak her piece before closing the door in her face. As the sisters fight their way to forgiveness, they unpack their complicated past, form an unexpected alliance with a young mother-to-be, and reconnect through the tantalizing aroma of chicken dinners that hold the power to heal--or divide--a community. In a tale rich with Southern charm, Rose and Marvina discover through fussing, laughter, and tears that the secret ingredient to a bright future might just be found in facing who they are today--and in forgiving the past to embrace a second chance at sisterhood. "A charming novel about sisterhood, regrets, and second chances ... an utter delight from start to finish."--Terah Shelton Harris, author of One Summer in Savannah

Disparad a todos los arrendajos azules que queráis, si podéis acertarles, pero recordad que es un pecado matar a un ruiseñor. Este es el consejo que da a sus hijos un abogado que está defendiendo al verdadero ruiseñor del clásico de Harper Lee: un hombre de color acusado de violar a una joven blanca. Desde la mirada de Jem y Scout Finch, Harper Lee explora con humor y una honestidad insobornable la actitud irracional que en cuestiones de raza y clase social tenían los adultos del Sur profundo en los años treinta. La conciencia de una ciu-dad impregnada de prejuicios, violencia e hipocresía se enfrenta con la fortaleza y el heroísmo silencioso de un hombre que lucha por la justicia. 'Matar a un ruiseñor', audaz en la creación de una voz ingenua pero perspicaz, tan ocurrente como insolente, es también la novela de la formación de una niña tempera-mental y muy singular, movida por la aspiración de ser mejor y comprender a los otros. Los alegatos de Atticus ante el juez y el jurado, su valor, su aplomo, impregnan el libro, pero la corriente que sacude en todo momento a los lectores la conduce Scout, la chiquilla vestida de cualquier manera, sin coquetería, a la que le gusta leer, saber, escuchar.

Stuck in the past, Jake must learn to navigate a world full of desperate gods, wild monsters, bizarre powers, and weird “cultivating” mortals who claim they can become just as powerful as the gods themselves—as long as they get to sit around contemplating the mysteries of the universe for a few hundred years first. Join Jake on his next grand adventure as he learns what it means to be a newly ascended divinity, how to survive in such a strange new world, and how he might just have an unexpected edge on everyone and everything that’s out to get him—by learning how to craft his own magical cards! **Jake's Magical Market #1 has maintained an impressive 4.7-stars with over 14,000 reviews on Amazon and Audible combined, so this sequel is a must-read for fans of Gamelit novels, wild adventures, and stories about regular people traveling to strange new worlds.

But who was this Galaphile, and how and why did he choose to establish this center of magic and learning? Within these pages we meet the real Galaphile, following him from a friendless teenage orphan stranded in the Human world to a powerful adult and master mage, studying under the infamous recluse, Cogline. We learn of the forces that shaped him—those he loved, and those he lost; those who aided him, and those who stood against him. Throughout it all, Galaphile's goal is a noble one: to bring order to a chaotic world, and to make life better for those trying to survive it. To this end, he commences building the citadel which will one day be known as Paranor with the aid of the King of the Silver River. But there is one other who seeks dominion over the Four Lands—and for far less virtuous ends. For this foe has been corrupted by an ancient evil—one that will not only reach out and touch Galaphile's nearest and dearest, but also echo down through the centuries, sowing the seeds for some of the darkest times the Four Lands will ever face.
