Grief is a winding, unpredictable road—and no two journeys are the same.

In Working Through Grief, Lorna Tedder draws from deeply personal reflections and decades of lived experience to offer a compassionate guide through the darkest seasons of loss.

Through short, heartfelt essays, she explores the raw ache of absence, the surprising moments of beauty that surface in mourning, and the gradual, uneven path toward hope. This is not a map that promises “closure”—it’s a lantern to light the way, offering solace, honesty, and the reminder that it’s okay to carry both sorrow and joy in the same breath.

Specifically written for writers needing to work while grieving, this guide speaks to anyone carrying a loss but needing to carry on, and has been used by grief counselors and support groups.

This book includes takeaways, actionable next steps, journaling prompts, and affirmations.

Governments and health officials recommend getting five to seven portions of fruit and vegetable a day. The reason for this is that in the wild, we'd have actually survived from mostly fruits and vegetables, meaning that we're designed to consume at least that amount a day. This is why they contain so many important vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are crucial to our health and wellbeing – we evolved together.

Each fruit and veg however has different things to offer, and by selecting precisely which you eat you get to pick and choose which benefits your body gets. Of course, some fruits and vegetables will provide many more benefits than others. In this short report, we'll take a look at some of the most powerful fruits and vegetables of all.

Here are some of the most powerful of them all.

Apples

FINALIST: MEMOIR, STORY CIRCLE AWARDS, 2024

FINALIST: NARRATIVE NONFICTION, INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS OF NEW ENGLAND AWARDS, 2024

In the days before Roe v. Wade, an ambitious young journalist, abandoned by her beau, leaves Michigan for a dream job on the city desk of a Rochester, New York newspaper. Burned once, she's eager for love, but as the only Girl in the newsroom, she's more concerned with finding allies and making friends.

When a new leading man appears, she recognizes a kindred spirit. Soon her bylined stories claim front-page space. However, when she becomes pregnant, she must switch her attention from deadlines to decisions.

With adoption on the horizon, she pushes her man to make a commitment. Sadly, he wants her, but not their daughter. Will Dusky ever find the little girl she longed to raise, and if she does, what will be the fallout from their years apart?

In Hole in My Heart, the author uses her skills as a journalist to report on the social history and long-term consequences of family separation. If you like true stories with strong women narrators, you’ll love Lorraine Dusky’s timely and heart-rending memoir about motherhood, identity and love.

Written by a leader in the movement to reform adoption practices and the first to come out of the era's closet of shame. With footnotes, bibliography and index.

Start Your Journey Into the Bible Jesus Actually Read

One Question Changes Everything: What if the Old Testament you've been reading your entire life isn't the same one Jesus knew? What if the apostles quoted from a different source than what's in your English Bible? What if the tradition that shaped Christianity from the beginning was somehow lost along the way for many believers?

That tradition is the Septuagint. And it's been hiding in plain sight for over 2,000 years.

The Septuagint— the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible completed more than a century before Christ —was the Scripture of Jesus, the apostles, and the early church. It's quoted throughout the New Testament and reveals insights virtually unknown in the west.

What you'll learn:

• What exactly is the Septuagint, and why you should care

• How it differs from the Hebrew Bible you know

• Why Jewish scholars translated it in the first place

• How it became the Bible of the early church

• Why Jesus and the apostles used it as their primary Scripture

• The centuries-long divergence between Jewish and Christian textual traditions

• Modern rediscovery and scholarly vindication

Before you invest time in this study, author Kevin Potter addresses the major concerns head-on with refreshingly honest, theologically sound responses that will put your mind at ease.

This study is perfect For:

The Curious Believer who's always wondered why New Testament quotations don't quite match your Old Testament.

The Serious Student who's ready to move beyond surface-level Bible study and explore textual traditions that shaped Christianity.

The Skeptical Reader who's cautious about "new" biblical resources. This book addresses your concerns with transparent honesty.

The Passionate Teacher who wants to enrich their preaching and teaching with insights their congregation has never encountered.

The History Enthusiast who's fascinated by how we got our Bible and how ancient texts were transmitted.

Unlike many biblical scholarship resources:

✓ Written by a relatively new believer with fresh eyes and zero pretension

✓ Scholarly but never stuffy — accessible without dumbing down

✓ Theologically sound — treats Scripture with reverence while exploring textual complexities

✓ Devotional in spirit — enriches faith rather than undermining it

✓ Transparent about limitations — honest about what we do and don't know

✓ "Both/And" framework — shows how different textual traditions complement rather than compete

What Readers Are Discovering:

"I've been a Christian for 40 years and had NO IDEA this textual tradition existed. This free book opened my eyes to an entire dimension of Scripture I'd been missing."

"Finally, someone who explains complex textual issues without making me feel stupid. Potter's fresh perspective is exactly what we needed."

"I downloaded this skeptically, expecting Catholic propaganda or liberal scholarship. Instead, I found honest, reverent exploration of how the early church read Scripture. Mind-blowing and faith-enriching."

"Potter's 'both/and' approach is brilliant, showing how textual plurality enriches rather than threatens biblical authority."

John Muir’s classic, restored and reconsidered, with the buried history none of us learned in school.

In 1912, John Muir wrote The Yosemite to make the country love a valley enough to save it. His account of the waterfalls, the storms, the giant sequoias, and the high country remains some of the finest nature writing in the English language, and it helped shape the very idea of a national park.

Muir saw the granite and the light with rare clarity. He saw the people who had lived there for thousands of years hardly at all. This new edition sets his book back into its own moment and next to what we have learned since.

A substantial new foreword traces the history that popular accounts of Yosemite leave out:

—>The valley’s older names, and the people who gave them: the Ahwahneechee, driven out beginning in 1851.

—>The eighteen treaties negotiated with California tribes in 1851 and 1852, which the U.S. Senate refused to ratify and then ordered kept secret for half a century.

—>Hetch Hetchy, the second Yosemite valley, dammed to provide a distant city’s drinking water while Muir fought a political battle and lost.

—>The long removal of the last Native residents from the valley, which the National Park Service finished in 1969, within living memory.

The foreword also asks a fair question about Muir himself: how much his views reflected his era, and how much they changed over a lifetime. It admires his writing without excusing its blind spots.

This edition includes:

—>Muir’s complete 1912 text, freshly and readably typeset.

—>Corrected botanical names and light editorial notes.

—>A “For Further Reading” guide for those who want to go deeper.

For readers who love Yosemite, for anyone drawn in by the recent land swap proposal, and for students of conservation and American history, this is the whole story of a place we thought we knew. Muir wanted us to love Yosemite enough to defend it. That begins with telling the truth about it.
