Book Description

"Get ready to savor one of the most powerful autobiographies I have ever read. It's all here: love, faith, family and the abiding power of hope in the face of disappointment and loss. If you needed a primer to guide you through the travails of life, only to look up and find thesilver linings, this is the only book you need ever read on the subject. Phillip Timp's story begins in the mid 1950's in the green fields of Wisconsin, where he is born into a big family. Athletic, curious, and fun loving, Phillip has a happy childhood. One day, fate takes a terrible turn soon after the Timps move to the mountains of southwest Virginia, where they become part of a new extended family, the good people of the Appalachians. Phil becomes a journalist, falls in love, and marries his true love. You can not imagine what joy and pain lies in wait for them. Phil tells the story of resilience on the path to joy that will fill your heart and shore up your spirit. Whether you are a family member, a friend, a medical professional, or a patient with ALS, youwill find wisdom, truth, beauty and hope on these pages. Phillip is an amazing writer, speaker, and rabble rouser. He brings his unvarnished and honest self fully to these pages, but with a sense of humor and just enough grace notes to assure you that he is listening to a higher power and gaining strength in the process. Project Main Street, the ALS support foundation, found Phil and, in celebration of a great life and in the hope of inspiring others, served as publisher of his story. You will return to these pages time and time again. It's that good; it's that resplendent. Phil's story celebrates tenacity in the face of challenges and delivers the ultimate message that life is to be lived fully in every moment, with every day spent in gratitude and love. Life is a gift and Phil unwraps it for all to see. I can not recommend this story highly enough."Adriana TrigianiBestselling author of The Shoemaker's Wife

Book Description

As the saying goes, “It’s not the number of breaths we take, it is the number of moments that take our breath away.” Every now and then, and more often than we realize, God breaks into the routine and gives us one of those awesome moments, so powerful, so amazing, so beautiful that time seems to stand still. How long has it been since you had one of those moments? I have had many moments like that. Some were quite dramatic, some were quite memorable, and some were just too beautiful for words. Do you remember the first time you saw the ocean, or a majestic mountain range, or a breathtaking sunset with colors so amazing that you find yourself thinking, Only God could do that! As we explore in this book some of the many different kinds of moments that take your breath away, it is my hope and prayer that we will all become more aware of and receptive to the myriad breathtaking moments that God has in store for us. —James W. Moore, adapted from the introduction Contains twelve chapters plus an introduction. Each chapter of the book features a key passage of Scripture and focuses on a key theme. A study guide is included.

The Queen City couple s charmed life started to unravel soon after as her dream of becoming a mother turns into a nightmare. Angela seeks the advice and help of her doctor when she experiences mysterious and unusual symptoms but the doctor says it s all in her head. In her heart, Angela knows that's not true as she progresses from feeling bad during her pregnancy to having a bad feeling that something terrible could happen to her and her baby. She knows something is wrong, but she's not the doctor. In Breathe, Angela and Samson share their life and soul-stirring experience in beautiful and gut-wrenching personal accounts that will give you a glimpse of heaven and hope in the darkest of times." --Publisher description.

Book Description

A missing woman. A husband suspected. The truth will . . . TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY From the New York Times bestselling author of Find You First and Elevator Pitch comes a gripping psychological thriller about a formerly missing woman who has suddenly returned under mysterious circumstances. One weekend, while Andrew Mason was on a fishing trip, his wife, Brie, vanished without a trace. Most everyone assumed Andy had got away with murder—it’s always the husband, isn’t it?—but the police could never build a strong case against him. For a while, Andy hit rock bottom—he drank too much to numb the pain, was abandoned by all his friends save one, nearly lost his business, and became a pariah in the place he once called home. Now, six years later, Andy has finally put his life back together. He sold the house he once shared with Brie and moved away. To tell the truth, he wasn’t sad to hear that the old place was razed and a new house built on the site. He’s settled down with a new partner, Jayne, and life is good. But Andy’s peaceful world is about to shatter. One day, a woman shows up at his old address, screaming, “Where’s my house? What’s happened to my house?” And then, just as suddenly as she appeared, the woman—who bears a striking resemblance to Brie—is gone. The police are notified and old questions—and dark suspicions—resurface. Could Brie really be alive after all these years? If so, where has she been? It soon becomes clear that Andy’s future and the lives of those closest to him depend on discovering what the hell is going on. The trick will be whether he can stay alive long enough to unearth the answers.
