"Dorothy Spaulding was a woman who had it all--successful business woman, writer, TV personality--and then lost it all. Facing a season of desperation, Dorothy turned back to God and went on a forty-day fast, after which the Lord led her to walk a wooden cross from Florida to DC, which became an eight-year journey. With no bank account, credit cards, or income, she was forced to give God complete and total faith for all her daily needs. This would prove to be an essential lesson on faith as her journey across the states came to an end. "When God told Dorothy to open a Christian television station in Augusta, Georgia, she had to believe for the needs of the station as well as the needs of her employees. Her burden for souls now reaches the world. "Dorothy Spaulding is a true example of what faith should look like today." Chris James, General Manager, Watchmen Broadcasting In We Walk by Faith, readers will discover how to: * Hear the call of God and carry it through, never wavering or quitting when times get tough * Identify the secrets of prevailing prayer, tenacity, and courage * Be a bold and fearless witness of Jesus Christ * Step out of your comfort zone into a place of dependence on God for everything * Completely walk by faith on the Word of God

Do you desire to overcome lust, porn, masturbation, and all other forms of sexual temptation? Do you value the power of God's Word? Redeemed Like David offers a Christ-centered, Bible-based blueprint for overcoming all forms of sexual sin.Perhaps the most notorious sexual failure in the whole Bible was King David's affair with Bathsheba. And yet, even with this massive sexual blemish in David's past, God still called King David "a man after my own heart" (Acts 13:22). How can this be?The key to understanding David's redemption is Psalm 51. In Redeemed Like David you will find that Psalm 51 is a roadmap on how to break free from the addictive sexual sins that have consistently plagued you.While there are plenty of very helpful Christian books on the topic of overcoming sexual temptation, Redeemed Like David is unique in that it takes one specific passage of Scripture and applies it directly to the question, "How can I overcome sexual temptation?"

A moving story of hope, faith, persistence and the power of dreams. A piano prodigy, a nineteen-year-old college grad, a Marshall scholar, and an American Idol finalist. This guy had it made. He could sing. He could ski blind. What couldn’t he do? Even if you saw him in concert, you might not believe that Scott MacIntyre is blind, and you’d never guess that at nineteen, he faced a diagnosis that rocked his family and nearly took his life. So how did he do it? How did he overcome the odds? This is Scott’s story, but he’d be the first to tell you that it’s not really about him. This is the story of how God used a dedicated family, a selfless acquaintance, hardship, and a host of characters to give him life, faith, determination, and experiences most can only imagine. Peek behind the scenes to see how he learned to overcome his disability, how he made it in the music industry, how he found the love of his life, and how God taught him that in all things, we can truly achieve our dreams By Faith, Not by Sight.

This memoir is about the experiences of this young boy, probably here by accident, stumbling through life, facing many challenges, making probably every mistake possible, learning at an early age the power of God and prayer and then realizing, finally, that so many people, many he never knew, were in his corner, pulling for him to succeed. We hope you will follow the "snapshot" thinking of this eighty-one-year¬¬-old senior citizen, born in 1936 at a time when our country was still drowning in a state of deep depression. The South was laboring under the oppressive laws of segregation, and his family was constantly struggling to survive a state of utter poverty. His is a story of survival, hope, and redemption.
