The themes and revelations gained through two of the Bible’s most quoted scriptures will touch your heart and transform your spirit. If you love fiction, fight the good fight in Battle of Wills by Sherryle Kiser Jackson, experience the price of beauty in Vanity by Janell, do it your own way in God's Precious Diamond by Charlene Anderson, and take a leap of faith in Jump by Isaiah David Paul. Alternatively, if you prefer nonfiction, travel the road of suffering and redemption with Have You Considered My Servant? by Ondrea Davis, count your blessings in Life After Leave by Judine Slaughter, explore God's plan for your life in A Purpose Realized by Shelia Lipsey, learn the difference between wants and needs in The Woman of Proverbs 31:25 by Cherilyn Shahid, and learn to follow Him at all costs with Sticking It Out for Him by G. Francis Johnson. Each of these nine works have been carefully crafted to remind you that in the midst of life's greatest obstacles and hardest decisions, you are never helpless or hopeless for God is nigh.
