    From plowing the sandy soil of Lowcountry South Carolina to treating the medical maladies of the farming families of his home county to fighting the secret war in Laos - follow the adventures of Dr. Robert Jackson, a poor farm boy turned medical doctor turned decorated Vietnam War veteran turned patient advocate. The last words he spoke to his sister Eunice were, "Sis, you fly low and slow. I'll fly high and fast!" And that he did. He flew higher than most men ever even aspire, and so fast most could not keep up. As one friend observed, "He accomplished more in forty-one years than most of us will in an entire lifetime." On Laughter-Silvered Wings records the remarkable life story of a country doctor, a family man, and an American patriot. Take a deep breath. You will be breathless just reading about his exploits.

    The Jumpin' Joey has something for every reader: a studied analysis of mid-twentieth-century geopolitical and military history, a rigorous technical exposition on how to keep a "Tin Can" Navy destroyer up to speed and mission-ready, and reflections by a freshly minted naval officer learning about life and leadership on his first seagoing assignment."I reported aboard the USS Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. as a very young man," writes the author, "but took giant steps, along with many others, to reach manhood.""The folks I depict in this story are my heroes. Life is about providing an inheritance to society beyond what we experienced. We have crashes along the way, but we make our world a little bit better."Get to know the JPK and its men. Come aboard. Permission granted.Throughout a distinguished military career, Capt. Randolph M. Brooks, USN (Ret.), put his nuclear engineering and ocean engineering training to work aboard several US Navy ships, including the USS Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. (DD-850), on which he served from 1970 to 1973 as Chief Engineer. In addition, he has been a project leader for overhauls and conversions of US seagoing vessels. He has taught and supervised post-graduate studies at MIT and was the Director of Submarine Design and Engineering in Washington, DC, helping to design the USS Virginia class submarine now being built. Now retired, he lives in South Carolina with his wife, Debora.

He calls it "redemption's greatest story never told."In the story of the Sons of Korah and the psalms they later wrote, Goodroe finds encouragement that will help you start to move forward again, put the pieces of your life back together and begin making progress.

  • av Rosalie Hall Hunt

    Imagine being transported in time and space, sitting at the feet of Lottie Moon, hearing stories from Southern Baptists' most renowned missionary. If any writer can deliver on the premise, it is Rosalie Hall Hunt, and she does so brilliantly in Lottie Moon and the Silent Bell.Hunt is today's definitive voice on historic women on mission, and in these pages she draws on a lifetime's immersion in the study of Lottie Moon's life and work. For years, Hunt has portrayed the famous missionary in a dramatic monologue she performs in churches. She also taps the serendipitous perspective of having known someone who heard "Aunt Lottie's" stories firsthand. And, if that's not enough, it also happens that Hunt grew up in Lottie's beloved China as a child of missionaries and lived in a house where Lottie once lived.What is it about Lottie that so captures the imagination? Is it the image of her, small in stature yet stalwart, facing down the challenge of sharing Jesus in a faraway land? Is it because she was especially loved by the people of her adopted China? Is it the allure of leaving behind home and family to answer God's call to be a missionary in a foreign place? For the rapt trio of young sisters gathered in Aunt Lottie's sitting room, perhaps it's the twinkle in her eye as she offers a plate of warm tea cakes. Won't you join them?

    When the Clemens family lands at the airport in Tel Aviv, Israel, the father of the clan, who has longed to visit the Holy Land ever since he was a college freshman, descends the escalator, walks briskly up to the tour guide awaiting their arrival and says, "Howdy, neighbor, do you know Jesus?"To his surprise, the guide replies that, yes, Jesus is his Lord and Savior. "I believe in Yeshua Messiah," says the young man, whose name is Ezekiel ("Zeke" for short).Thus begins a special relationship between Zeke and the Clemens family (Dad and Mom, teen Thomas, twelve-year-old twins Paul and Paula, and Zoe, eight).Over the next several days, fueled by Dad's and Zeke's shared interest in the prophet Ezekiel, the Clemens parents model Deuteronomy 6:6-7 as they talk with their kids about the book of Ezekiel and how it relates to other biblical passages.Join them in this forty-day conversational devotional, and learn more about an important Old Testament prophet known mostly for speaking to a valley of dry bones but who had a lot more to say - words of judgment, instruction and promise - from God to His chosen people.Each day's entry includes an activity, discussion questions and a prayer, and there is a leader's guide at the end of the book.

    Just as there are warning signs of an impending stroke that can devastate the human body, there are indicators that predict a sudden and catastrophic breakdown of the Body of Christ, the local church. But, as physical strokes can be prevented, so can spiritual strokes, says Dr. Danny Burnley, a pastor with a proven record of helping struggling churches come back from the brink of shutdown. If the Great Physician is allowed to regain control of the Body, then vitality can return. In Spiritual Strokes, Burnley offers a biblically sound prescription for Christians who would avoid spiritual apoplexy and "truly desire to see God show up and begin to move within their midst."

    Carrie Tate loved growing up in North Carolina mountain parsonages and longed to follow in her father's footsteps as an ordained minister. In the early twentieth century, even her beloved Papa could not encourage her. Carrie turned to her love of books and learning and traveled to St. Matthews in the midlands of South Carolina to teach school. There she met and married native son, Saylor Jumper. The pair raised ten children through the years of World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II.An unexpected, unwelcome move to the low-country lumber mill town of Miley seemed a disruption. As years passed, Carrie and Saylor acknowledged life in Miley as God's long-term assignment. A serious accident, fire, and war lay ahead.Today remnants of the mill remain, but the once noisy, bustling town of Miley has vanished, replaced by quiet fields and pine woods, where the wind still whispers memories of the music and mission of a family of faith.From MURPHY to MILEY is a novel of historical fiction, a family saga inspired by the author's grandparents. Carrie and Saylor Jumper lived in a fallen, sinful, war-torn world. Their steadfast faith in God undergirded, sustained, and directed their lives. As their oldest granddaughter, Jane Farmer's visits to Miley instilled in her a lifelong wish to recapture sights, sounds, smells, and people of the once-vibrant little town. It is her hope that, through the pages of this story, Miley will live again.

    Pondering Proverbs is not intended as a scholarly work, says author and pastor Tom Hinkle, but a labor of love. "I have tried to give some insight into what the Proverbs are telling us and have tried to give some practical thoughts about their teachings," writes Hinkle. "It has been a work that has given me a better understanding of the book of Proverbs, and I hope it will help others as they seek to know more about the wisdom God offers to each of us. "The grace of our Lord sustains us each day, and His wisdom guides us. I believe this study will help others learn to walk in God's wisdom and be a blessing to others. I hope others can be helped by what I have written, and that God will be honored." In this second of two volumes, Hinkle offers a comprehensive study of chapters 1-16 of Proverbs using the HEAR method (highlight, explain, apply and respond) popularized by Robby and Kandi Gallaty. Tom Hinkle has served as pastor of St. John's Bethel Baptist Church in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, since 2015, and previously served churches in Kentucky for thirty years.

    av Harry T Bush

    From the author:This book will change your life. It will take you to seven South- and Southeast-Asian nations and introduce you to twenty fascinating people whom I call "Giants." These spiritual giants come in varied forms and from extremely different backgrounds and terrains, but they all have one common link: they are totally committed and surrendered to following their Lord Jesus.You will cry as you feel the martyr's flames of a missionary father and two small sons in rural India. You will cringe as you nearly hit a tractor-trailer truck head-on in northern Pakistan.You will be awed as you see the hand of God turn a Bengal tiger away from an untrained church planter, also in rural India. That church planter scattered gospel seeds up and down both sides of a huge valley amongst a lost people group, and you will be shocked at the unbelievable results.You will suck in your breath as you travel up a river in Borneo (an experience that feels like going back in time five hundred years) and see two young, fearless giants planting gospel-light churches up and down those ancient and spiritually dark river banks.You will smile at a small Indian man, partially blind and missing half of one arm, waving fire brands in front of wild, rampaging elephants to drive them away after they had destroyed his house and village. That same fearless man, a spiritual giant, drove off Satan by lifting God's Word and Jesus' resurrection power to change lives for eternity and miraculously lift a handicapped boy into God's ministry.You will feel the blood ooze from a witness in northern Pakistan as bitter winds sap the life of a gospelizer on the slopes of a Himalayan mountain.You will experience a miracle in the slums of Mumbai (Bombay), India, and be enriched by many more examples of how God used no-name people to bring radical, gospel-changed lives and churches to that region.In each chapter of this book there are two additional sections. I include a section called "Getting There," which describes the challenge of traveling in each of these Asian countries. I also describe the environment where each of these giants live and minister, which are usually a great challenge for us Westerners. This adds the missionary perspective.

    Explore "My Own Backyard" … then discover yours.In this autobiographical collection, Danny Nicholson explores the landscape of his own backyard through stories about his father, poems about his children, and songs about family, faith and friends.In essence, his book reveals that his story is not his own. It transcends the boundaries of geographical locations, suggesting that life is not so much about where we are but who we are."Geographical boundaries separate backyards, but the memories we make in them create a sameness and familiarity that renders the distance between them non-existent," writes the author. "Backyards are set apart by their location, but they are made of the same stuff - or, even better, we are made of the same stuff."Nicholson's stories, poems, and songs of laughter and tears, darkness and light, faith and love, "inextricably link us to each other as human beings, and give us a divine reason to hope for a better tomorrow.""We are one story or song away from finding all things in common with every human being," he says.An adopted son as well as a husband, father, singer-songwriter, fundraising leader, and speaker, Nicholson is president of Connie Maxwell Children's Home in Greenwood, S.C. He is married to his college sweetheart, Debra, and they have two grown sons who are accomplished musicians.
