The three million dollar syndicated stallion lay motionless against the sand. "What's wrong with him, Wyatt?" asked Colt as he ran toward the horse. "Oh no, he's not getting up!" Blue Boy was cast and could not stand.Who would have ever believed that a thousand pound, three-time world champion cutting horse would need help getting up? In Miracle at Caller's Spring Ranch, the Reeses, a fourth-generational ranching family on the brink of financial and emotional bankruptcy, find out that everybody needs help sometimes. Using a hollow cave on the back side of the homestead and a former five-time all-around world champion cowboy-turned-financial advisor, the awesome power of God is about to transform not only the Reese family and their ranch, but spark a national movement.

The Old Testament is so much more than an old book filled with funny names and endless rules about sacrifices—it’s where we first get to know the God who keeps His promises, works miracles and forgives His people when they make poor choices. With Uncommon: The Old Testament, developed by youth ministry veteran Jim Burns, youth leaders can introduce their teens to key events and characters from the Hebrew Bible. Students will learn to see God’s Word as an exciting drama that finds its completion in Jesus Christ. Through 12 flexible sessions of study that can be adapted for groups of any size, teens will learn how to listen to God’s voice, what it takes to stand up for God’s people, where to go when the going gets tough, and much more. Plus, the action-packed, fun activities and indispensable tips for starting meaningful dialogue will equip leaders to tell the old, old story in a fresh and vital way.
