Hot off the press! New books written!

Norman finished two books! Check them out on Amazon.

  1. Self-Awareness is a Superpower is a book about seeing yourself for who you truly are — your strengths and weaknesses and everything in between.
  2. Skin the Cat: Church Planting is Not Optional is for those considering church planting. Many churches and individuals may become bogged down or discouraged from ever considering starting a new church because their mental image is too overwhelming. Doesn’t it cost thousands of dollars to plant a new church? And what about a team to send to start it? Norman does a great job describing other options than the typical ways we do things in the US. Definitely worth the read.

Susan has also written two new books!

  1. A Caregiver’s Refuge: 52 Devotional Thoughts from the book of Isaiah is written to encourage and challenge caregivers. Included in this work are discussion questions for each lesson, which is terrific to use in a small group setting, one-on-one with another caregiver, or just for yourself.
  2. Hope in the Hard Days: Devotions for Caregivers takes various Scripture verses to apply to those facing the ups and downs of caring for another person. These passages are instrumental in the author’s life, and she shares from her heart how God has used them personally.

If you happen to read any of these books, please do us the favor of writing a review on Amazon.com. This will help other people be able to find these books. Thank you!
