Book Description
Waiting Here for You helps us anticipate rather than dread the busy season of Advent and Christmas. Life is full of waiting – we can’t escape it. We find ourselves in the middle of it every day – waiting on a prognosis to be given…a verdict to be reached…a promotion to be announced. And in these seasons of waiting that anxiety, desperation and hopelessness creep in. Waiting Here For You takes us through the advent – the season of waiting. In it we see the story of the coming of Jesus. It teaches us that waiting is the means God often uses to carry his plans in our lives. And it brings us back to the truth that our waiting is never wasted when we are waiting on God. Join pastor and author Louie Giglio and take hold of the chance to uncover the vast hope offered through the journey of Advent. Find peace and encouragement for your soul as anticipation leads toward celebration! Waiting is not wasted when it is waiting with the Lord.

When the danger was over, he journeyed with his father, brothers, and a friend to bring them home. What could go wrong? They followed the hoof tracks until the storm turned them into mud. The searchers found two things, where the woman and child had previously been and what their true level of trust was in the Lord.The Bible is the ultimate source for Christians, but will Johann and Tea (the baby's parents) find the words there how to beseech God in their time of need? While looking for his wife, Meta, Benjamin's strong spirit waned until a young boy walked out of the woods. Ari, the baby's grandfather, stepped out of his comfort zone and relentlessly pursued the trail of clues to another country but only discovered that the missing loved ones were always beyond his grasp. Johann's brothers, Magnus and Ivar, followed a new path leading them to a destiny they could have never envisioned.During the waiting, will they put their complete trust in God to provide, overcome the obstacles, and heal the broken hearted?

Book Description
"What would you do if you knew your unborn child would be born with a serious birth defect? That's the question that was facing Chad and Ashley Judice of Lafayette, Louisiana, when their unborn son was diagnosed with spina bifida in a 16-weeks ultrasound. If brought to term, the child could be paralyzed from the waist on down. He would probably have little or no control of his bowels or bladder. And he could have any number of learning disabilities associated with a related birth defect called hydrocephalus, commonly referred to as "water on the brain". When the doctor gave the Judices the diagnosis, she expressed her sincere sympathy, then proceeded to ask Ashley if she wanted to terminate the pregnancy. The medical literature on this birth defect indicates 80 percent of parents who are given this diagnosis do close abortion. Ashley and Chad did not want to be in that number. Instead, they would pray for a miracle" --Cover, p. 2.

Book Description
There are over 130 million orphans worldwide. The pro-life/pro-choice debate continues to consume politics and everyday conversations. Readers want to know what they can do to make a difference on these issues. Wait No More tells Kelly and John Rosati’s story of experiencing God more fully through the great blessings and challenges encountered during their journey to adopt four children from the U.S. foster care system. It is a story of God’s faithfulness to grow a beautiful family, through adoption, from the ashes of child abuse, neglect, and abandonment.

Book Description
Buffeted by one jaw-dropping obstacle after another, Orenstein seeks answers both medical and spiritual, all the while trying to save a marriage threatened by cycles, appointments, procedures, and disappointments. Her journey takes her around America and as far as East Asia - on the way she visits an ex-boyfriend who now has fifteen children; encounters 'parasite singles' in Tokyo, women who are rejecting marriage and motherhood in favour of shopping sprees and foreign travel; and shares stories with survivors of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima. The world's professional women are only now beginning to become aware of the risks and realities of 'having it all', and Orenstein's saga unfolds as infertility is developing into a boom industry, with over a million women a year seeking treatment. Waiting for Daisy is a profoundly honest, wryly funny report from the front, a story about doing all the things you swore you'd never do to get something you hadn't even been sure you wanted; it's about being a woman, about trying to become a mother, and above all, about the ambivalence, obsession and sacrifice that characterises the struggles of so many modern couples.

Book Description
"The great lack of our religion is, we do not know God." There is only one way to know God, and that is to spend time with God. In this age of instant gratification, quick access to information, and high speed everything, connecting with God is difficult because the act of waiting has become obsolete. If the answer is knowing God, if He is indeed “the one great remedy”, then learning to wait is vital. Andrew Murray's Waiting on God contains 31 daily meditations that will guide readers into the heart and the act of waiting on the Lord, shifting the focus from one’s personal needs and petitions to resting in the loving, living presence of God. South African writer, teacher and pastor, Andrew Murray (1828-1917), devoted his life to providing practical instruction to Christians everywhere, to guiding Christ-followers into deeper intimacy with the Lord. He believed—deeply and profoundly—that there was more of God to know, always more to understand, and that this pursuit would unlock belief and expectation for every believer. In this compelling devotional, Murray explains the mystery of waiting on God with relevant scripture, fascinating insights, and individual and communal challenges to: Wait on the presence of God Surrender to Him Connect with Him intimately Acknowledge His blessings Trust Him to provide Spending time with God leads to knowing Him. Knowing him leads to comprehending all that He can do. Murray’s Waiting on God is an invitation to engage in a true encounter with God, to make more space for “Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us...” (Ephesians 3:20, NIV).
