<div>With one flash of a camera, Demi&rsquo;s private life becomes public news. She doesn&rsquo;t know it yet, but her healing has just begun.Christian college professor Demitria Costanas had vowed to end her affair with a colleague. But she gives into temptation one last time . . . and a lurking photographer captures her weakness for all to see. Quite literally, she&rsquo;s the woman caught in adultery. And almost everyone&mdash;herself included&mdash;has a stone to throw.Enter Sullivan Crisp, a decidedly unorthodox psychologist with his own baggage. He&rsquo;s well-known for his quirky sense of humor and incorporation of &ldquo;game show&rdquo; theology into his counseling sessions. And yet there&rsquo;s something more he offers: hope for a fresh start.Reluctantly the two of them begin an uplifting, uneven journey filled with healing and grace. By turns funny and touching, this story explores the ways humans hurt each other and deceive themselves. And it shows the endlessly creative means God uses to turn stones of accusation and shame into works of beauty that lead us onto the path of healing.An auspicious debut for a candid yet tender series about pain, healing, and God&rsquo;s invitation for second chances.&ldquo;A story of refining one&rsquo;s faith in a world of sin and temptation. It just might change your life. It has certainly changed mine.&rdquo; &mdash;Angela Hunt, author of Daughter of Cana<ul><li>Inspirational contemporary read</li><li>The first book in the Sullivan Crisp series, but can be enjoyed as a standalone<ul><li>Book one: Healing Stones</li><li>Book two: Healing Waters</li><li>Book three: Healing Sands</li></ul></li><li>Includes discussion questions for reading groups</li></ul></div>

Healing Stones

<div>In Sarah Collins&rsquo;s mind, only one thing stands in the way of her success . . . an unborn baby.Sarah is about to receive a promotion that will give her everything she&rsquo;s ever wanted: a huge pay increase, a new car, a fabulous apartment, and first-class travel.But then she discovers she&rsquo;s pregnant. And while she thinks she loves her boyfriend, Matt, she isn&rsquo;t sure he&rsquo;s mature enough to be a responsible father. And the job she&rsquo;s pursuing is open only because the previous employee is out on maternity leave. Sarah would never be able to handle the travel as a single mom.Torn between advice from her coworkers, the insistence of her mother and sister that she keep the baby, her insecurity about her relationship with Matt, and the void where her father should be, Sarah has no idea how to make this decision.A Christmas card from a mysterious old woman is the catalyst for three visions of her future&mdash;and just may be the miracle she needs. But can she trust the visions? Are they the yearnings of a conflicted heart? Or are they true visions from the God she thought had turned His back on her?For every woman who has made painful decisions, Sarah&rsquo;s Choice offers comfort, wisdom and hope."This story provides a bit of encouragement and hope to those facing a difficult decision." &mdash;Romantic Times, 4-star review"A thought-provoking and stirring story of painful choices and their ramifications.
