Watching for the Morning: 90 Devotionals for When Hope is Hard to Find
Have your tears lasted more than a night as you’ve been watching for the morning? Does the waiting feel too hard and God too distant? Waiting, watching, hoping – these words describe how Vaneetha lived for years, after her once-comfortable life dissolved in front of her. She pleaded with God to fix her situation and stop the pain in the midst of an escalating illness, the death of a child, and an unwanted divorce. But instead of doing what she asked for, God gave her something even more wonderful. He offered Himself. This devotional will help you find hope in whatever you’re facing today as it grapples with the inevitable questions: - How do we embrace the present moment with its pain and imperfections instead of just waiting for our problems to disappear? - How do we live with uncertainty, trusting that God is doing something beautiful in what appears to be an empty silence? - How do we wait for God, satisfied in him alone, without insisting on the outcome we want? These 90 devotions are for anyone who is waiting in the dark, wondering when life will get better. Some reflections will encourage you to press on, some will help you process your losses, others will make you laugh, and still others will show you the gift of lament, in both its grittiness and grace. Ultimately, they’re all intended to draw you closer to the God who is always for you – who is nearer than you know and loves you more than you can imagine. Weeping may last for the night but joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5

Child Proof: Parenting By Faith, Not Formula
As a freedom-over-formula parenting guide for parents of all ages, Child Proof provides biblical insight and encouragement for listeners who want to parent by faith. As an experienced counselor of children and families, and an adoptive and foster mom applying the Christian Counselling and Educational Foundation (CCEF) model of biblical change, Julie Lowe uses biblical Scripture and spiritual wisdom to teach parents how to know their children and specifically love them with the love of Jesus Christ. Every family is unique, which is why Child Proof explores the need for parents to cultivate personal and intimate care for their children as modeled in God's individual, personal, and fatherly care to his children. This parenting audiobook lays a foundation of parenting by faith and progresses by teaching Christian parents how they can know their own children well and parent accordingly. By discussing particular issues parents might have in family life, Lowe demonstrates how parenting formulas aren't the answer, and parenting with biblical wisdom is best for a proactive rather than reactive approach to raising children. Through Lowe's personal and professional experience, Christian parents as well as those helping parents pastors, counselors and counseling students, youth workers, and churches will discover gospel-centered application rather than formulas for the ideal family, equipping parents to be experts at knowing their own children so they can know biblical Scripture and live it out personally in their homes.

The Wonder of Advent Audio Bible Study Experience: Delighting in the Hope, Joy, Peace, and Love of C
More than any other time of year, Christmas brings with it an undeniable sense of wonder and awe. The Advent season gives us the opportunity to delight in the promises we celebrate at Christmas: the HOPE that Jesus will return and make all things new; the JOY that comes from worshiping Him today and for eternity; the PEACE we experience with God today and we long for our world to experience when it is redeemed; and the LOVE of a God who sacrificed His own Son to be in relationship with us. In The Wonder of Advent, spend a week considering each of the themes of Advent-hope, joy, peace, and love. Each week you'll trace that theme throughout Scripture by looking at: 1) an Old Testament prophecy; 2) a scene from the Christmas story; 3) a moment from Jesus's earthly ministry; 4) a teaching of Jesus; and 5) a promise from Revelation. When your eyes are opened to these threads in Scripture, you'll stand in awe of the glory and love of God, and you'll be motivated to share the wonder of Advent with the world.

Safeguards: Shielding Our Homes and Equipping Our Kids
Because children are vulnerable, they need to be protected. After more than two decades as a family counselor, Julie Lowe has seen how important it is to help parents and caregivers think wisely and biblically about the dangers children face. Instead of living in fear or denial, parents and caregivers can equip children to assess people and situations and model for them how to live by faith in a world where evil exists. Lowe helps parents and caregivers teach the safety skills that will help protect their children from mistreatment, unsafe situations, violence, bullying, cyber-crimes, predatory behavior, sexting, abuse, and other kinds of danger that they might encounter. The safety skills that are needed at every stage-preschool, elementary-age, teens, and college-bound-are discussed and applied in an age-appropriate way. Safeguards provides tools, skills, and resources to help when faced with uncomfortable, challenging, or dangerous situations. Instead of growing more anxious, parents and caregivers can grow in a biblical understanding of the type of dangers and issues children and young people might face, learn how to instill confidence and conviction in responding to new or fearful situations, and distinguish safe vs. unsafe people and situations.
