Ep 464Alligator in the Ocean, by Anina Swan

Today, Roberta talks to Anina Swan about her new book Alligator In The Ocean: A Family’s Fight to Stop a Serial Predator and Their Determination to Heal, available from Morgan James publishers.Alligator in the Ocean illustrates one family’s drive to stop a serial predator and overcome the heart-wrenching struggles that followed.Anina Swan shares the true account of how she survived the brutality of a serial predator, Ivan, unveiled traumatic amnesia, and rallied help to stop his crime spree. With deep-seated courage, Anina did the unthinkable when she confronted her perpetrator. The result eventually delivered Ivan’s confessions of assaulting hundreds of children, according to local news reports. The chaotic aftermath ultimately led to his arrest and how Anina transformed her pain into purpose and adversity into triumph.In Alligator in the Ocean, Anina creatively weaves scenes from three different perspectives: one of the child victims, herself as a young mother, and the perpetrator through portions of his handwritten letters that he wrote to his wife, Adele, while incarcerated. Anina illustrates how the wounds of crime reach beyond the victim and spread through family and community. She gives a deeply personal account of how she persevered and overcame what seemed impossible. Then how she transformed—through forgiveness sought and found. This poignant story proves that where there is hope, the crippling effects of violence can be overcome and result in a profound desire to live a better life.Alligator in the Ocean is a unique story based on a collection of Anina’s journals, court documents, slides and photos, newspaper articles, interviews, and the original letters written by Ivan to his wife while incarcerated.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Ep 452The Man for the Day, by Josh Smith

Today, Roberta talks to Josh Smith about his new book The Man for the Day: Answering the Call to Godly Manhood, available from B&H Books publishers.Many men sense a growing desire for a more robust spiritual life, to walk with God and to be used by Him.

Men are increasingly weary of a worldly culture’s constant assault on their families, their churches, and their manhood. They yearn to do something, to be God’s man, but they remain uncertain of what that something is or even how to begin. They hear the resounding higher call to be God’s man, the man for the day, and to courageously yield to be used by God however He chooses. In The Man for the Day, J. Josh Smith walks through the life of Elijah to reveal ten qualities needed in the pursuit of a life that matters. Smith invites men to boldly lead their families, churches, and communities, to meet the needs of the day for the glory of God. We need not limp through life with the feelings of indifference and insignificance. We need not settle. Our Maker has called us to more. Smith issues the challenge to us all that during these days of increasing hardship and decay, our times need godly men, and our God wants men to be The Man for the Day.

Today, Roberta talks to LaFon Jantz about the new book Make Peace with Your Past: Living a Life with No Regrets, available from Aspire Press publishers.We all want to feel energized, optimistic, and fulfilled each day, thankful for the meaningful people and activities in our lives. Yet many people lack this kind of joy and vitality. Why? One major reason is they have not made peace with their past.Often people carry pain from past troubled relationships into their current relationships. They are weighed down by shame that toxic people once tried to put on them. Or they hold on to mistakes and failures, never able to forgive themselves. Either way, they struggle to find the freedom that God offers.Make Peace with Your Past offers essential principles and practical steps for moving beyond these painful experiences. Dr. Gregory Jantz takes readers from hurt to healing by exploring the power of forgiving others and themselves, accurately seeing themselves as God does, living fully in the moment with him, and allowing “the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” to define their future (Philippians 3:14 ESV).Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Today, Roberta talks to Ron Susek about his new book Silent Night, Holy War.The narrative is based on the Christmas story from Revelation 12. It's a book, once begun, you won't want to put it down. Satan mused to his wicked throng: "It will be easy to kill god while reduced to infancy. Easy! There is no way for him to overpower us now. God had the power to defeat us in the past, but this is our night of victory! He threw us out of heaven, but tonight we will throw him off this planet. This is our realm! I am the prince and the power of the air. Here I reign. Here God dies!" At that same instand, young Mary rearranged her position on the makeshift straw bed and cried out as her contractions became severe. The evil one's eyes widened like a wolf spotting the birth of a lamb. Cruelty dripped from his lips as he craved to pounce. But the moment Mary cried, the sound of a mighty wind was heard - asound greater than that of a thousand tornadoes in one. It was heaven's army finalizing its stance over the cave, planted firmly between the young couple and the hordes of hell. Satan became livid. His legions drew back. Mary cried again, and at once both heaven and hell unsheathed their swords.
