Most Special Gift
$18.99Add to cartIt was a celebration to remember. A proclamation was sent out in the kingdom of Amira by Sovereign Apatmos for one and all in the kingdom to bring a gift to a celebration in honor of Elovah, the God of the Universe. However, it was the unexpected, simple gifts among the finest in the land that changed not only the minds but the hearts of those in the kingdom toward what it means to give of oneself. Author Daniel Smith provides readers with an engaging, heartfelt story about gratitude, faith, and selflessness through his children’s fairy tale, The Most Special Gift. As all were grabbing up the best in the land as gifts for the celebration, many overlooked the two orphaned children who worked hard for what little they earned. Benny and Elvira wanted to also bring a gift to the celebration but between the two of them, not much was available. However, their decision to bring two gifts that meant the most to both of them would prove to be something that would change their lives, as well as the lives and mindsets of the kingdom, forever. Daniel began writing a story about the true meaning of giving gifts for a Christmas party years ago, but wasn’t able to complete the story by the party. However, this seemed to entice his interest to write, creating three more fairy tales and a poem, all taking place in the magical land first set out in this story. He hopes that readers gain a stronger sense of the importance in giving gifts with no expectation for a return, which can help in sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with someone.Just as Benny and Elvira hoped their gifts would please the Sovereign and Elovah, however meager the gifts might be, we can only hope what we present to God will mean something to Him and help others draw closer to Him.

Who God Says He Is
$34.99Add to cartIf you’ve spent any amount of time around children, you know that little humans like to read, watch, and listen to things on repeat. From singing silly songs for hours on end to watching the same movie 100 times, or asking for the same bedtime story for the 12th night in a row. Most parents will tell you that whatever their kids have on repeat gets stuck in their heads as well . . . and that’s not always a good thing. What if, instead of silly songs, children and their parents had Biblical truths stuck in their head?
The hope for this book is that it will teach children the truth of who God is while simultaneously encouraging the adults who read to them. The world around us constantly feeds us lies about who God is (or isn’t), and who we are (or aren’t). This book is meant to replace those lies with beautiful truths from the Bible, and empower people to live abundant lives as a result.
Children who are struggling to fit in will learn that God is the most faithful of friends. Teenagers navigating a multitude of changes in their world will know that God is unchanging from day to day. Parents searching for the right words to say to their children will be reminded that God is the source of all wisdom, and they can seek Him in moments of need. May God bless this book, and its readers of all ages!
Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable–if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy–dwell on these things.
Philippians 4:8

Finding The Heart Of God
$19.99Add to cartFinding the Heart of God is an adaptation of the conversations about negative emotions that I had with my grandchildren. It is based on a class I took called Transformation Prayer Ministry* (TPM) by Ed M. Smith. Since I saw much progress when using the method with adults, I adapted some of the basic concepts taught in this ministry model for use with my young grandchildren. TPM is a prayer ministry that helps people identify their lie-based belief which causes the feeling of negative emotion. Since many young children cannot verbalize their range of emotions, one of the benefits of TPM is that they do not have to name what they are feeling but be willing to feel. One premise from TPM is, “We feel whatever we believe.” Helping a child to identify the lies that are taken to heart and to invite the Spirit of Jesus to replace it with truth, is a wonderful gift we can give our children.
The book is modeled on conversations that I had with my grandchildren over a series of years. Their answers are to the question, “Would you like to ask the Lord what He wants you to know about your pain?” I was amazed at their responses and knew they had received truth from the Spirit.

Since 1975, Mercer Mayer has been writing and illustrating stories about Little Critter and the antics he stumbles into while growing up. Tommy Nelson is thrilled to bring this beloved brand to the Christian market with the Inspired Kids line of faith-based books featuring Little Critter.
In Being Thankful, Little Critter isn’t getting anything he wants. Gator gets cool brand-new sneakers, while Little Critter is stuck with his boring blue ones. Tiger’s dad has a boat-but not Little Critter’s dad. And even at the ice cream shop, Little Critter can’t enjoy his chocolate ice cream cone because he would rather have a huge ice cream sundae instead. But on a trip to the farm, Grandma shows Little Critter why thankfulness is so important and helps make any situation seem so much happier.
Based on Psalm 107:1, this book will show children what gratitude is and why we should be thankful for all of the blessings God has given us.

Raising up men has never been easy, but today is seems particularly tough. The young and old need heroes to embody the eternal qualities of manhood: honor, duty, valor, and integrity.

Using profiles, stories, letters, poems, essays, historical vignettes, and myths to bring his subject to life, The Book of Man defines what a man should be, how he should live, and to what he should aspire in several key areas of life: war, work, leisure, and more. “Whether we take up the sword, the plow, the ball, the gavel, our children, or our Bibles,” says Bennett, “we must always do it like the men we are called to be.”The Book of Man shows how.
