    Today, guest host Luke Taylor talks to Brian Barcelona about his new book Legends Die Young: No One Lives Until They Die, available from Charisma House publishers.

    Every martyr had surrendered long before their ultimate sacrifice, death.

    This book will help me to grow in faith and strengthen my understanding of all that God is. I will watch as God patches up the wounds of my heart so that I can step fully into the calling and all the plans that He has for my life.

    Legends Die Young unveils the journey every believer embarks on—a battle against forces seeking to separate them from their faith in Jesus. In an era marked by deconstruction and great offense, where the timeless solution lies in the essence of discipleship, this book isn’t just a collection of narratives; it’s a repository of practical wisdom and contemporary tales featuring modern legends in the Christian faith who selflessly sacrificed themselves to ensure the longevity of their faith. It echoes a truth: every martyr had surrendered long before their ultimate sacrifice, death.

    Many books teach you to be a better you; few teach you to lay your life down. Within these pages readers will explore transcending bitterness, betrayal, and unforgiveness, as well as navigating through the storms of hardship with grace and mercy as our guiding lights. Whether readers are shepherding a small group or leading stadiums, this book underscores the essence of nurturing their heart’s core and fostering an unwavering connection with God—a connection resilient against the cunning schemes of the devil, ensuring a life marked by resounding victory.

    This book aspires to penetrate the very essence of a believer’s soul, igniting in them an unshakable and triumphant faith in Jesus. It’s crafted to profoundly impact readers, equipping them with tangible tools to overcome challenges, accompanied by real-life narratives of individuals who have traversed similar paths.

  • The Choices She Made, by Felicia Ferguson
    2025/01/12

    Today, Roberta talks to Felicia Ferguson about her new book The Choices She Made, available from End Game Press publishers.

    In 1997, seventeen-year-old Madeline Williams is torn between continuing her family ranching legacy and accepting her Army-bound boyfriend's marriage proposal.

    But when an assault by John David Billings, the son of a wealthy rancher, leaves her pregnant, Madeline sacrifices both options, choosing to leave town and raise the child alone.

    It's been several years, and when she returns to her hometown to meet with her father, rumors circulate about John David's trial--for assaulting other women. Madeline struggles with the secret she's kept from her daughter--and everyone but her father--all of these years.

    If she testifies, John David could be put away for good. Doesn't help that he's hired a killer lawyer, and it would take a testimony like hers just to put him behind bars. But if she unveils her past, that could have some dangerous repercussions for her daughter.

    She has trusted God throughout her entire life, but can she trust him to carry her throught his trial?

  • Behind Closed Doors, by Jessica Peck
    2025/01/11

    Today, Roberta talks to Jessica Peck about her new book Behind Closed Doors: A Guide to Help Parents and Teens Navigate Through Life’s Toughest Issues, available from Thomas Nelson publishers.

    Believe it or not, your kids WANT to talk to you about the social and health challenges they’re facing. But are you ready? Jessica Peck, a pediatric nurse practitioner and mom of four, helps parents escape the secrecy and shame surrounding tough conversations and approach them from a Christian foundation.

    Today’s teens are feeling more isolated, anxious, and depressed than previous generations, and are struggling with more complex challenges. Jessica Peck (DNP, APRN) has spent countless hours advising and encouraging parents after talking to their teens behind closed doors. In the privacy of her exam room, she has treated teens with mental illnesses, responded to suicide attempts, treated self-harm wounds as well as the emotional trauma of cyberbullying, sexting, pornography addictions, and numerous other issues. Through it all, Jessica found that teens really want to talk to their parents but don’t know how.

    Jessica seeks to move the private conversations that happen in the clinic to relationship-building conversations at home. Behind Closed Doors is a guided lifeline to help you strengthen your connection with your kids. You will be able to:

    • Get professional advice on tough teenage issues from a medical perspective, as well as the true stories of patients
    • Discover suggested settings, activities, and question prompts to give you conversation keys to unlock doors for open dialogue on tough issues with your teens
    • Share a time of reflection with devotional readings, relevant Bible verses, Scripture-based prayers, themed music playlists, and more
    • Prompts to write 12 Legacy Letters: a generational keepsake for teens

    Covering topics including mental health, social media, suicide, sexting, gender identity, substance abuse (with a chapter focusing on vaping), and more, Jessica Peck's book will encourage and strengthen all parents—married, single, or divorced; grandparents, stepparents, godparents, bonus parents, adopted parents—anyone who is serving a parental role in a teen's life.
