Stain Of Guilt
$17.99
For the highly successful TV show American Fugitive, forensic artist Annie Kingston agrees to draw the updated face of Bill Bland, a cunning fugitive wanted for a double murder committed twenty years ago. In studying the man and his crime, Annie knows she must descend into the mind of a killer a mind of greed, darkness . . . and death. To render Bland as he would look today, Annie must intimately learn about his traits, his health, and his personality. Just one habitual expression could alter the way his face has aged. But as she is pulled further into his world, someone wants to stop her at any cost. To protect herself and her children, Annie must complete the drawing and pray it leads to the elusive Bland’s arrest before he can get to her . . . The house felt eerie in its silence. My own breathing, the swish of my sleeve as I drew, the rasp of pencils all seemed amplified. Yet I noticed this intermittently, as if my mind surfaced from the depths to breathe, then sank once more. Down in the murky waters of concentration, I focused on Bill Bland until I could almost touch him, feel him, smell him. The longer I worked, the more close the air in the office felt, as if a woolen blanket of oppression descended from the ceiling. A strange sense stole over me, as though I and Bland were two actors on stage, our movements spotlighted, black emptiness between us. But that darkness grew smaller and smaller as the space between us shrank. I did not know if this sense was due to my emersion in Bland’s face and mind and world, or to my fear of his threatening presence. Or both. The nerves between my shoulder blades began to tingle. Help me, God. Please.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$21.00Add to cartThe women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
