  • Now I Understand: Accessible Answers about Scripture and Science

    Daniel Friedmann

    eBook (Inspired Books, June 24, 2020)
    Every word in the six-day Genesis creation account describes the origins of the universe and life on Earth. Yet the scientific discoveries and observations that contribute to our understanding of when and how the universe came to be often seem to contradict Genesis. Can they both be right?This book examines questions about the universe and life by trying to clarify what science knows and what Genesis actually says. The Bible is the blueprint of creation, so scientific facts cannot contradict the Bible. But as this book explores, scientific theories may or may not be in agreement with the Bible.The questions have been posed primarily by teenagers and young adults. Some of the questions this book answers are:How can there have been the Big Bang if God created the universe?If God has so much power and the universe is so big, why would He create only one world that has people? Why not create multiple worlds with people?If God created the universe, why don’t we see proof of it?How can Earth be the only place that has life, when there are trillions of other galaxies and planets?Why doesn’t the Bible mention dinosaurs?Does the human soul really exist? Can science detect it?Why does the Bible only speak about people around the Middle East, if the world was so large and populated from the beginning?Why doesn’t God talk to people anymore?If Adam and Eve were the first two people in the world, and they had children, and their children produced children, wouldn’t some of the children have health problems? And are we all related?How can people in Genesis have lived for hundreds of years?Why were there cavemen if Adam and Eve existed?If you go back 5,800 years, and people had the “normal” number of children, could we have the current population?How can a religious person be a scientist?Now I Understand is a fascinating and entertaining read to share with the whole family.

  • No More Dodging Bullets: A Memoir about Faith, Love, Lessons, and Growth

    Amy Herrig

    eBook (Inspired Forever Books, Oct. 22, 2019)
    After overcoming a heroin addiction in her teenage years and striving to move forward, Amy Herrig faced an entirely different addiction twenty years later: money. She and her father, Jerry Shults, were thriving as the owners of the Gas Pipe stores in Dallas, Texas, as well as other successful businesses, when a government lawsuit threatened to take everything—their businesses, their money, and their freedom. Accused of crimes she hadn’t committed, Amy spent the next four years fighting to stay out of prison, but that wasn’t all she had to fight along the way. When one life-altering change after another shook up Amy’s world, she gained a new perspective on herself and on what matters most in life. From an exhausting and demoralizing situation came a new outlook of gratitude, but also remorse and humility. Although Amy’s actions in the past had not all been illegal, she had let the allure of money guide her decisions rather than using her moral compass; the shocking turn of events that resulted from those decisions led to profound changes and made a lasting impact on Amy’s life.

  • RAC Journal: One Adventurous Girl's Firsthand Experience of the Tough but Rewarding Annual Ride Across California

    Kailyn Donnelly

    Paperback (Inspire Books, June 9, 2020)
    The beginning of Ride Across California was growing closer and closer, looming like the mountains she knew she’d have to climb. Kailyn had long ago decided she was going to journal her adventures, but she had no idea the collection of stories were ever going to leave her house! Many of her tales from the 2018 RAC capture the wit, humor, and general goofing around of an eleven-year-old, but her stories are also filled with surprising insights and life lessons that she hopes the reader will take to heart. She includes mile counts, meals, temperatures/conditions, fun things they did along the way, and her personal thoughts and experiences, all so you know exactly what you’re in for from an honest recount.“Before you commit to something as significant and challenging as the RAC, read and consider my story. Just because I thought a hill was challenging doesn’t mean you will, or that you’ll run into the same extreme heat and winds I did. If you’re already signed up, that’s amazing and good luck! If you aren’t, what are you waiting around for? See you in the prologue!” –KailynThe Ride Across California monumentally impacted Kailyn’s life, with all the literal and figurative highs and lows of such a challenge, and she is certain it will impact yours as well. As she says, what are you waiting for? Let’s ride!
