New Lineage Publication
Skunk Tales is a book of true short stories written by a mother about her small family. These original tales teach valuable character lessons from her life experiences. In 2002 Lynn and her son Alex moved from Florida to Texas and lived at a retreat center in the hill country. Their new life in the country along with their passion for the open air resulted with them encountering animals of various shapes, sizes, and scents. These new, unfamiliar experiences proved to be novel opportunities of learning and adventure. What a surprise it was when they arrived at their new home and discovered a strange foul odor about their house! Later they would learn that they had some uninvited quests. The close proximity of wildlife challenged Lynn to look at her life in a more meaningful way. This period of reflection resulted in her desire to share with others chapters of her life. In Skunk Tales Lynn writes about how God miraculously guided and cared for her and her son and compares these lessons to their observations of the various animals they observed. Flash is the story about the day they were raking leaves near the pond at the camp and a fox ran into the brush and dropped its food. Later that day Alex rushed through his school work and Lynn reminded him of the fox they had seen earlier in the day and encouraged him to pace himself with his studies. This opportunity prompted them to study the habitat and behaviors of the fox and all the important lessons they could learn from its example. Digger is the story about curiosity and staying on task. During their evening camp duties Lynn and her son decided to stop working to observe a skunk they had spotted. The skunk dug himself into a hole. Lynn and Alex ended up with their own consequences from this adventure. They learned a valuable lesson from Digger the skunk about following their noses. You will enjoy over sixty beautiful illustrations in Skunk Tales which accurately portray the true events of the stories. At the end of each chapter is an exciting and delightful section called Pooky’s Time Out. This is a very useful tool for parents to teach character lessons, motivate learning, and encourage families to spend intimate time together. Pooky’s Time Out is rich with fun activities to do and idioms to learn as well as Scriptures and prayers to read and songs to sing. As a result of reading Skunk Tales you will gain a fresh perspective and appreciation for the many valuable and meaningful o

Love Stories Of The Bible Speak
$30.00Add to cartBiblical Studies
Additional Info
The Bible is full of “love” stories. But the Biblical idea of love is so much bigger than we imagine.Love is at the heart of the Bible. From the moment Adam declared Eve “flesh of my flesh”…to the sacrificial love of Joseph for Mary…to the deep friendship of David and Jonathan…to the abounding and never-changing love of God: The Bible is a love story. But it also redefines the way the world tells us we should think about love.
The Bible reveals not just butterflies and broken hearts. In Scripture, we see God’s beautiful design for the partnership of marriage. We witness friendships that cross all boundaries. We watch as families navigate the many seasons of life. Our guiding example for them all is the deepest, most abiding, foundational love ever known: God’s unconditional love for His people.
In The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. She shows how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning upside down our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other.
The Love Stories of the Bible Speak reminds us that, no matter where we find ourselves, God’s unwavering love will sustain and guide us. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you, and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.
