Striving for Unity: a Study on 1 Corinthians

Genre: Bible Study

About the Book

We live in a divided world.

People argue, friendships end, families separate, and churches split. Christendom is as splintered as the secular sphere. These conflicts are not a novel occurrence. What is happening now has happened before. We know it shouldn’t be this way. Almost 2,000 years ago the Apostle Paul wrote his first letter to the Corinthian church for the same issues.

They lived in another time, another place, another culture. And yet, in many ways, they faced the same challenges we are facing today.

Like us, the Corinthians were a diverse group whose differences began to divide them. When word of their quarrels reached Paul, he wrote a letter in which he addressed some of the controversial matters and encouraged them to be unified. Once we understand what Paul was saying to the church, then we can find common principles that apply to our lives and circumstances today.

Striving for Unity: A Study on 1 Corinthians begins each chapter with prayer, guides the reader to examine the context of the Corinthian world, gives an overview of the letter as a whole, then progresses chapter by chapter and verse by verse to help the reader gain a better understanding of how to more effectively handle differences in our day.

A Princess’ Guide to the Alphabet

Genre: Children’s Picture Book, Alphabet Book

About the Book

A fantasy-themed Alphabet book.

Two princess sisters engage in fantasy scenarios for each letter of the Alphabet.

“D is for dancing dragons,” Lillian declared.

Zoe drenched diamond duchesses.

Filled with such fairy-tale favorites as dragons, elves, fairies, mermaids, and unicorns, this book provides an entertaining way to introduce the letters of the alphabet, identify their sounds, build vocabulary, and discuss other language arts skills.

It is a well-known fact that not all princesses are the same. While Lillian is a gentle, daydreamy Navajo one, little sister Zoe is of the rough-n-tumble warrior variety. As the day progresses, their perspectives produce distance, conflict, and unity.

Great for Educators!

This book teaches children much more than the A-B-Cs.

In addition to letter and sound recognition that includes multiple vowel sounds, this book can be used to teach:

  • Alliteration (Zoe magnetized moon mermaids.)
  • Characters and Personalities (How are Lillian and Zoe different and alike?)
  • Dialogue Tags and Punctuation (“A is for awkward aerial acrobats,” announced Lillian.)
  • Grammar (nouns, verbs, and adjectives)
  • Vocabulary (aerial, frolicked, quelled…)
  • Active Voice: vs. Passive Voice (Zoe drenched… vs. “D is for…”)

Princess Lillian and Grandpa’s Good-bye

Written by Jenny Fulton, Illustrated by Indra Grace Hunter

Genre: Children’s Picture Book

About the Book:

How do you explain death and heaven to a child?

Princess Lillian is taken to the hospital to visit her dying grandpa. She’s scared of the noises and machines in the room and uncertain of the man in the strange bed. God knows how she’s feeling and sends an angel who stays close by to give comfort and communicate God’s peace and wisdom to Lillian and her family. 

Grandpa says his best friend, the Great King Above the Nations, is coming to take him to his forever home. But what does that mean?

Using the language of her pretend princess world, Lillian’s parents help her understand that Grandpa is getting ready to go to heaven and be with God.

This story looks at grief and the passing of a loved one through the eyes and ears of a half native American Indian child named Lillian. It can be used to instill a sense of comfort, victory, or encouragement to individuals who are facing the death of a loved one or want to explain the concept to the children in their lives.

The Quest For Hope

Genre: YA Fantasy

Written by Jenny Fulton in collaboration with the vision of Eric Griffin (under the inspiration of the High King).

About the Book

In the newly created land of Novus, a powerful and immortal being known as the Dark One has all but succeeded in erasing the name of the High King from the hearts and minds of the people. The battle, however, is far from over. Unbeknownst to the Dark One and his minions of Chashaks, the High King has been at work among a loyal group of followers. Now he is ready to make his move.

Invisible crystalline beings known as Erela are being sent out across the land to seek out those who are willing to play a part in this unfolding story. Among them is a young apprentice named Levi. Having never traveled beyond the borders of his own home, Levi is sent forth on an important and dangerous mission. In another part of the kingdom, Aliatta, a proud young royal, is about to have her safe and comfortable world turned upside down. Seemingly opposite in almost every regard, these two young people soon find their lives intertwined in a cosmic quest for hope and truth.
