Decades of military oppression in Burma have led to the systematic destruction of thousands of ethnic minority villages, a standing army with one of the world’s highest number of child soldiers, and the displacement of millions of people. Nowhere to Be Home is an eye-opening collection of oral histories exposing the realities of life under military rule. In their own words, men and women from Burma describe their lives in the country that Human Rights Watch has called “the textbook example of a police state.”

Christmas is a special time of year. When we celebrate Christ's birth together with family and friends, it brings back cherished memories and treasured reminiscences. Xulon Press is proud to present its first book of Christmas memories, a collection of short stories that will help spread the love of Jesus to readers everywhere.

Some recall Christmases from the "good old days" when the world was simpler and Christmas trees were cut from the woods. Some recall lost loved ones, who live on in the words and memories of another. In the end, all of the stories should give you something to remember in your own life.

When jaded oil tycoon Nick Rudolph discovered a homeless Myla Howell and her two children on a cold winter night, even this self-proclaimed nonbeliever knew that this was no way to spend Christmas. So he took the brood under his wing—and the ragamuffin family miraculously captured his secretly lonely heart. Neither he nor Myla could deny there was an attraction, but both had too much pride to admit they needed one another. Would God's loving grace show them that together they'd always be home for Christmas?

Stay at Home Mom and Let God Be Your Provider is based on real life experiences of my life as well as my children. for the last year and half God has allowed me to take the time literally to stay at home and be with my children while He provided our every need so we could heal from our past hurts. He gave me the assignment of sharing our lessons and healing process. My childhood was stolen very early on through sexual abuse and then being raped multiple times as a result from never healing it caused a cycle of unhealthy and negative behavior throughout my life which was also transferred to my children. Having 4 children by different fathers that were not active in their lives was also painful and then I began abusing alcohol and drugs. Through faith, prayer, fasting, forgiveness and total submission to God we were able to take back what the enemy has stolen. We now have peace, love, joy and life more abundantly.

T. S. Elliot wrote: At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh not fleshless; Neither from not towards; at the still point , there the dance is, Except for the point, the still point. There would be no dance, and there is only the dance. This book talks about the still point in an entirely new way by framing it as our internal home. It also provides a path to coming home based on extensive research and personal experience. If you are interested in the dance of spiritual transformation, this is a must read.
