Sarah Anne's Expedient Marriage By Cathy Lynn Bryant & Jessica M. DormanAbout the Book:
Knowing he was about to die, Sarah Anne’s beloved father had arranged for her to marry Alexander Swyndhurst II. Alexander, a recent widower, had no intention of taking another wife; but after learning the young woman’s situation—that she had been the object of at least one man’s unwanted attentions, and that she would soon be left alone and unprotected—he had agreed to the marriage. He had one stipulation, however: He and Sarah Anne would live separately—he in Bristol, England, and she in Amesbury, Massachusetts Bay Colony. Sarah Anne had agreed wholeheartedly with this arrangement. Will Alexander have a change of heart? What of the dangerous man from her past? What will happen while her husband is away—leaving her alone with only the servants? Even though there are connections, each novel in the series may be read as a stand-alone.Cathy Lynn Bryant & Jessica M.

Out of the Dust: Story of an Unlikely Missionary
 |
| Avis Goodhart |
Out of the Dust: Story
of an Unlikely Missionary is a testimony to the way God uses broken things
and impossible circumstances to show His power in our world. Avis Goodhart, the
unlikely missionary of the title, started and maintained a missionary presence
in Peru through her Go Ye Ministries. With my dear friend Marti Pieper, Out of the Dust tells Avis’s story about how she came to serve God
through missions.

At the end of each chapter is the testimony of someone who
went to Peru and shared the ministry with Avis. Some came for a week’s mission
trip. Some came and stayed. Some led women’s Bible study and craft classes,
empowering women who felt alone and discarded like the trash in the landfill on
which their cardboard homes sit. Some adopted orphans from the orphanage. Some
taught at the Go Ye Ministries School. Avis’s life may not have seemed
extraordinary, especially her childhood, but her life and God’s use of her
reinforces the idea that God’s power is even more evident when His servants are
ones who has little to no power, education, wealth, or status.
Missionary prayer groups and women’s groups will find this
book about the work Goodhart began in Peru a good study book. Bible study
groups may find this book challenging to put feet to their knowledge of the
Bible. Churches may find Out of the Dust an
impetus to go forth from the comfort of the pew to those who need their help
and compassion.

He has done with Avis Goodhart and her multitude of helpers.
