Today my name is colorful. Yesterday my name was dead souls. Tomorrow my name will be lively spirits. My friends think my name is fire. The police think my name is burden. My parents think my name is symphony. Secretly I know my name is anything I want it to be. Paint Me Like I Am is a collection of poems by teens who have taken part in writing programs run by a national nonprofit organization called WritersCorps.

Book Description
A beautiful blanket of snow may cover the quaint town of Deep Haven each winter, but it can’t quite hide the wreckage of Noelle and Eli Hueston’s marriage. After twenty-five years, they’re contemplating divorce . . . just as soon as their youngest son graduates from high school. But then an accident erases part of Noelle's memory. Though her other injuries are minor, she doesn’t remember Eli, their children, or the tragedy that has ripped their family apart. What’s more, Noelle is shocked that her life has turned out nothing like she dreamed it would. As she tries to regain her memory and slowly steps into her role as a wife and mother, Eli helps her readjust to daily life with sometimes-hilarious, sometimes-heartwarming results. But can she fall in love again with a man she can’t remember? Will their secrets destroy them . . . or has erasing the past given them a chance for a future?

Book Description
My life stunk. I had never gotten a break. If it could go wrong, it had gone wrong. I was on the fast track to nowhere... Then I met Al. As one man approaches fifty, he takes a look back at the years riddled with disappointment, heartache, unfulfilled dreams, and hopelessness. He's a prisoner to his own existence, allowing fear and his victim mentality to keep him from pursuing the life he's always wanted. But just when it seems that each day is the same monotonous routine, he meets Al and has an unexpected encounter that will turn his life upside down. When Al offers him The Key to his mansion, this man must decide if it's a risk worth taking. Is it really free, or are there strings attached to this seemingly too-good-to-be-true offer? Who is this mysterious Al? What secrets does his house hold, and why is he trying to give it away? In his new book, The Key, John W. Turner takes readers on tour of this extraordinary home, using this allegory of the Father's house to reveal the invitation extended to each and every person. Readers will be spellbound as they too explore the rooms of the mansion, discovering the reality of God's character and the blessings he wants to bestow, if we allow him.
