From My Self To My Savior

The only child of prominent German parents, Ellen Cremer lived an idyllic life in the 1920's high society of Berlin. But with Hitler's rise to power, life changed abruptly - Ellen's father was anti-Nazi, her mother was Jewish. While turmoil, tragedy, and death swirled around her, Ellen became a skilled linguist, working among internationals in a major German factory during World War II. She also turned away from God. Through an amazing series of providential circumstances, Ellen became the official interpreter for the American military government in Germany after the War. In this capacity, she met her future husband. Years after coming to the States with Ken, Ellen finally faced the claims of Christ, and the fact of her own sin. Ellen's life, transformed in an instant, took on new meaning, enabling her to draw blessing from further bereavemant, and joy from renewed fires of trial. From My Self to My Savior shares the accounts which Ellen wrote to her children over a period of twenty-five years, along with over fifty authentic photographs and documents.

Tim Hicks shares his life as an abused child, a former pro wrestling performer and business owner and how the Lord was with him each step of the way . . . even when he didn't know it at the time.

What does it mean to be "truly converted" to Jesus Christ? To "endure to the end"? Mortal life is full of trials and temptations that can challenge our faith and impede our progress to return to our Heavenly Father's presence. It's easy to become discouraged, frustrated, or unmotivated when faced with what can feel like an impossible journey. But it's important to remember that the Lord does not demand or expect perfection in this life. All He asks is that we press forward in His name and find the strength to take the next step. Drawing from the teachings of the Savior, revelation from modern prophets, and personal anecdotes, authors Christopher R. Greenwood and Mark D. Mason guide you through gospel resources to strengthen your resolve and empower your understanding of Christ's Atonement. In Press Forward in Christ, you will • find the strength to continue the struggle toward God even when faced with adversity. • overcome mortal failings and continue forward with your faith intact. • become truly converted in the Lord and willingly accept His guidance. The way may be strait and narrow, but through trust in our Savior's glory and the determination to press forward, we can endure life's challenges faithfully and find lasting, eternal joy.

Do you find yourself caught up in comparing yourself to others, performing for acceptance, or held captive to perfectionism? You are not alone. We all currently live in a world that seems to demand an acceptable identity, especially exaggerated by social media. It seems to drive us to compare how we look, what we have, and how we perform (or fail to perform). This leads us to question ourselves: What if I fail to measure up? What if I don’t have what it takes? What if I’m not enough? It seems logical to hide in safety behind clever masks or high emotional walls created to avoid the judgment of others or the feelings of inadequacy, guilt, fear, or shame. Yet that means you’re trapped in hiding who you are, often questioning your value and worth. Our Masquerade invites you to confront your hiding places. You can discover how, why, and where you’ve learned to hide and once you’ve done so, you can say goodbye to tormenting thoughts and feelings that steal your confidence and your peace. You can leave the past behind and find the pathway to escape into a life transformed. This book will guide you to examine the ways in which life has induced you to hide and offers the inspiration to take off your masks, escape your hiding places, and learn to live with confidence.
