HOW LUCKY AM I
In this poignant, affirming, and beautifully illustrated journey, Mr Skelly explores the ups and downs of existence and discovers the makings of a meaningful life. "How lucky am I, to have lost what I wanted, to find what I deserved" Join beloved Mr Skelly, a gentle skeleton wandering across lush landscapes and treacherous terrains, through times of joy, loss, grief and love, to find his family and – ultimately – a safe home. Along the way, he discovers life lessons which help us remember what to hold onto and what to let go of, to realise how lucky we all are, because this beautifully fragile present moment is truly all we have. Mr Skelly invites you to shift your lens, make peace with what you can’t control, appreciate what can’t be seen, and live your life to the utmost of your ability. How Lucky Am I is a simple reminder that, in the end, we're all made of the same bones. With gentle words and hand-painted imagery, this book hopes to shine a softer light on what's often overlooked - and maybe, in doing so, help us remember what truly matters. What people are already saying... "It's a pocket sized reset button, a collection of reminders that help you breathe a little deeper and feel a little lighter." "What truly stayed with me is the message that it’s okay not to be okay and that we should be gentle with ourselves. We don’t get extra time in life, but we do get the time we have. And we can choose to fill that time with kindness, especially toward ourselves." "Thank you, Christian Watson, for sharing this magnificent creation with the world. Mr. Skelly is exactly what we all need right now."

THE JESUS DISCOVERIES
10 Historic Finds That Support the Truth of Christianity · Explore compelling archeological discoveries that support the authenticity of the Bible, the resurrection of Jesus, and the reasonableness of Christianity · For believers and skeptics alike · From an acclaimed biblical scholar and ministry leader In an age of growing skepticism, many demand hard evidence before believing anything is true--especially when it comes to Jesus and the Bible. A kind of "artifacts or it didn't happen" attitude. Perhaps nowhere is this attitude more prevalent than when considering the claims of Christianity. The irony of this is that there are centuries of archaeological discoveries that support the narratives found in the Bible. Lost cities and civilizations, found. Lost art and technology, rediscovered. Lost documents, retrieved. Okay, fine, the skeptic says. I'll give you cities and art. But what about Jesus? There's no actual evidence that he ever lived, right? Wrong. In this eye-opening, faith-fortifying book from acclaimed New Testament scholar and minister Jeremiah Johnston, you'll encounter ten of the most compelling historic finds that corroborate the truth claims found in the Bible regarding who Jesus said he was, when and where He lived, His claims and aims, how His life ended, and how that wasn't the end of His story. Far more than a tour of the past, The Jesus Discoveries connects His story with your story, perhaps in ways you've never before considered--revealing how Jesus's story changes your story.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved Today show host Sheinelle Jones comes an inspiring collection of heartfelt life-lessons from hard working moms who raised some of our favorite celebrities. When Sheinelle Jones launched “Through Mom’s Eyes,” a recurring Today show segment interviewing celebrities’ mothers about raising successful kids, she had an ulterior motive—she wanted to bring all their wisdom to bear on raising her own three children. So she asked Lin-Manuel Miranda’s mom about staying present with kids while balancing a demanding career, talked with Lady Gaga’s mom about how to recognize bullying, and got tips from Steph Curry’s mom on making sure even future NBA royalty does his chores. She has since interviewed dozens of remarkable women and gathered a candid, warm, and insightful collection of valuable lessons about life, love, and parenthood. Now in her first book, Through Mom’s Eyes, Sheinelle is ready to share even more of those life-changing secrets with the world. Combining insights from celebrity mothers with her own journey through modern parenting, Sheinelle reveals how to make it through the hard parts of motherhood and still tap into the joys of it with empathy, generosity, and solidarity. Through Mom’s Eyes is a beautiful celebration of those who are the guiding light for their loved ones—mothers. Featuring advice from the moms of: Lady Gaga * Kevin Durant * Matthew McConaughey * Venus and Serena Williams * Lin-Manuel Miranda * Steph Curry * Padma Lakshmi * Tyra Banks * Donnie and Mark Wahlberg * Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski * Jessica and Ashlee Simpson * Shaquille O’Neal * Brandon Maxwell * The Jonas Brothers * Thomas Rhett

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD
AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Shannon Bream, the bestselling author of The Women of the Bible Speak series, returns with a fresh collection of biblical stories that will hearten readers who feel stuck in a spiritual rut. People in the Bible struggled the exact way we do. If your life doesn't look the way you expected, that doesn't mean God can't use you. The Christian life often doesn’t feel like the stained-glass images we remember from childhood—happy, holy, hopeful. But God never promised that we won’t have trouble. Rather, He promises to be with us through the storm. Be encouraged by the real struggles of biblical heroes, including: Moses, the slave-turned-prince who faced constant curveballs in life. Daniel, the exile who maintained his integrity in the most hostile environment imaginable. Joseph, the "chosen one" with family trauma like you wouldn’t believe. Jonah, who ran away from his mission and ended up at the bottom of the sea. Elijah, the bold prophet who went from miracles to extreme loneliness. Peter, the impulsive and changeable fisherman who became a “rock” of the faith. Their journeys were full of trials, but they found abounding peace in Jesus. Nothing Is Impossible with God is an encouraging reminder of how the Lord is willing and able to bless us more than we can possibly imagine. It will comfort, inspire, and equip you for life’s challenges by showing that nothing is impossible with Him.

WE WHO WRESTLE WITH GOD
We Who Wrestle with God by Jordan B. Peterson explores the foundational biblical stories that have shaped Western thought and culture. In this work, Peterson delves into narratives such as the fall of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah's flood, the Tower of Babel, and the journeys of Abraham and Moses. He analyzes their psychological and cultural significance, uncovering how these stories convey universal themes of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph. The book combines scientific and spiritual insights to deepen understanding of human consciousness, societal structures, and moral growth. By examining these ancient texts, Peterson encourages readers to reflect on their personal and collective struggles, much like wrestling with God, to find purpose and direction in life. The work aims to bridge the gap between science and religion, offering both a practical and philosophical guide to confronting chaos and creating order in life.
