Candlewick relaunches a modern classic for this generation with a beautifully illustrated edition. Heather’s favorite number is two. She has two arms, two legs, and two pets. And she also has two mommies. When Heather goes to school for the first time, someone asks her about her daddy, but Heather doesn’t have a daddy. Then something interesting happens. When Heather and her classmates all draw pictures of their families, not one drawing is the same. It doesn’t matter who makes up a family, the teacher says, because “the most important thing about a family is that all the people in it love one another.” This delightful edition for a new generation of young readers features fresh illustrations by Laura Cornell and an updated story by Lesléa Newman.

In a world that is constantly changing, God s Word remains the standardby which we must judge all human actions and lifestyles. In Does God LoveMichael s Two Daddies?, Seth and Sara learn that God loves all people, eventhose who are disobeying Him. But they also learn that the only way to havea relationship with God is to stop sinning and turn to JesusFor the last 15 years, the homosexual community has been publishing children sbooks promoting homosexuality, starting with the book Heather HasTwo Mommies, Daddy s Roommate, and My Two Uncles. To our knowledge, no comparable children s book designed to combat the promotion of homosexuality is available on the market until now. Does God Love Michael s Two Daddies? is a professionally designed and illustrated book that promotes God s love for all individuals, while at the same time showing, in a loving way, that homosexuality is out of harmony with Bible teaching. This book has tremendous potential to influence positively the lives of thousands of children growing up in tumultuous and confusing times."

SEVEN OUTRAGEOUS TRUTHS YOU CAN STILL BELIEVE . . . AND WHY ·“Every other religion is wrong.” ·“God sends good people to Hell.” ·“Homosexuality is a perversion.” ·“Evolution is a myth.” ·“God is ultimately responsible for suffering in the world.” ·“Husbands are to lead their families.” ·“America is a Christian nation.” In Hell? Yes! Dr. Robert Jeffress issues a bold wakeup call to all believers–from college students to grandparents–to stop apologizing for and start proclaiming the tough but essential truths that Christians have historically embraced. And he provides the finest biblical, scientific, and historical evidence needed to defend these core beliefs in a culture turned hostile to God's truth. Dr. Jeffress believes the secular spirit of political correctness is holding the church hostage. And the tragic result is that the revolutionary, life-changing, positive message of the Christian faith is being watered down. If you are weary of a Christianity that waffles and wavers about controversial issues–if you are ready to stand up and compassionately yet forcefully and intelligently say, “This is what I believe and here’s why”–then this book is for you!
