The greatest gift the world has is God’s love for us. The love God has for us precipitated God sending us Jesus to bring us back into a loving fellowship with him. With all the hate, evil, and pain that exist in the world, humanity cannot forget the power of love and the sovereignty of God. God is love, and since God is sovereign, love still reigns not only in the hearts of men and women but in the heart of God, and it is inextricably interwoven within our salvation story. Our Christian salvific story is one of love; it is a narrator of love. We were made to love and made to be loved. We were made in the image of God, and God being love denotes we were made to love, be loved, and desire a relationship with those we love. God desires a relationship with us because he loves us. The love of the Father is manifested through the deeds of Jesus Christ in the Father’s desired to be back in relationship with his creation. The love God has for his creation must be dramatize and visualized in how we love one another and relate to those we love. God’s will need to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Henrietta Hunter’s Jesus My Valentine explores how interconnected the love we experience in our personal lives (i.e. romantically, platonically) to our love for God. She demonstrates this by outlining how the love and passion that the lover in Songs of Solomon possesses for his love is an extended analogy to God’s love for us and how God’s people ought to pursue him as their lover. Her work calls readers to experience God’s love through the way we experience love with others; reciprocally, the way readers experience love with one another is the same way readers are to experience being in love with God. Henrietta introduced the magnitude of love on a horizontal level, which is eye level, a level reader can grasp and then raise our spiritual conscious to above-eye level, which is a vertical love. Jesus My Valentine argues both are necessary to truly make Jesus our valentine. It is when Jesus become our valentine that we come to know true love and the true meaning of true love, realizing it is impossible for Jesus to be your valentine without the love of people and the people without Jesus being your valentine is not possible. Henrietta’s journey within Jesus My Valentine takes us from the historicity of Valentine’s Day to the evolution of how we contemporarily celebrate Valentine’s Day. She matriculates from a historical view of Valentine’s Day to a theological view of Valentine’s Day, moving from an anthropocentric (human) view of love to a theocentric (God) view of love. Jesus My Valentine calls readers to replicate the wooing they extend on Valentines for their lovers to how readers approach and love on Jesus. Henrietta outlines how readers are to love Jesus and make him their valentine in very practical ways. If you asked Henrietta how to make Jesus your valentine? According to this text, she would suggest it is like the way a wife knows her husband and the way a husband gets to know his wife. It is a love that comes from a knowledge that is only generated by living together, by responding to each other’s daily interests and by the needs, and by listening and being present.

Have you ever wondered if you’re the only one who’s hurt, struggling, lonely, and confused? It’s not just you. Grace Valentine wants you to know one thing for sure: You’re not alone in your struggle. You’re not the only one feeling freaked out by the future. You’re not the only one dealing with crap. You’re not alone! Many women joke about having trust issues—laughing at their struggle because it feels common but secretly feeling there is no hope. Grace Valentine was one of them. In her twenties, she realized her trust issues were not humorous because, in reality, hers were trust issues with Jesus, her community, her family, and herself. And they were destroying her faith. Grace told herself she was simply being realistic, but the truth was, she was entangled with doubt and lies. In Grace’s second book, Is It Just Me?, she’ll walk you through how to handle rejection, stop joking about your issues, and find peace and healing for your scars by answering five deeply felt questions: Am I the only one who is tired, overwhelmed, doubting, and fearful? Am I the only one who feels hurt and lonely? Am I the only one who still is struggling to find my purpose? Am I the only one struggling to trust that God is there? Am I the only one confused about how to be an adult? Grace’s prayer is that as you journey with her through early adulthood, you’ll remember you have a Savior who loves you, flaws and all. By learning to trust in God’s design and His plans for your future, you’ll find you have everything you need to thrive in your twenties—and beyond.

Can this undercover agent save the woman he loves—or is her heart as counterfeit as the money he's been sent to track down? After all that Grandfather has sacrificed to raise her, Theresa Plane owes it to him to save the family name—and that means clearing their debt with creditors before she marries Edward Greystone. But when one of the creditors' threats leads her to stumble across a midnight meeting, she discovers that the money he owes isn't all Grandfather was hiding. And the secrets he kept have now trapped Theresa in a life-threatening fight for her home—and the truth. After months of undercover work, Secret Service operative Broderick Cosgrove is finally about to uncover the identity of the leader of a notorious counterfeiting ring. That moment of triumph turns to horror, however, when he finds undeniable proof that his former fiance is connected. Can he really believe the woman he loved is a willing participant? Protecting Theresa and proving her innocence may destroy his career—but that's better than failing her twice in one lifetime. They must form a partnership, tentative though it is. But there's no question they're both still keeping secrets—and that lack of trust, along with the dangerous criminals out for their blood, threatens their hearts, their faith, and their very survival. Combining rich history, danger, suspense, and romance, Crystal Caudill's debut novel launches this new historical series with a bang. Fans of Elizabeth Camden, Michelle Griep, and Joanna Davidson Politano will be thrilled to find another author to follow!
