This 40-day devotional deals as much with God’s absence as His presence, for it is about the spiritual season of winter—a time when the light of faith has dimmed and the warmth of love has cooled.
Written with a mystic’s heart, a scholar’s mind, and a poet’s pen, Winter with God is a profound meditation on the opportunities and challenges we face when our relationship with God seems dormant, endangered, or simply one-sided.
Suitable for both longtime pilgrims and the newfound faithful (or faithless), this rich and compelling devotional about winter with God—a season through which every soul must pass—shows how the hardest season to experience can also be the most rewarding to endure.
Discover hope for your spirit and strength for your soul.

What do you do when everyone around you tells you one thing, but your body and soul tell you another?
In this inspirational, hope-filled memoir, one woman battles the good advice of others versus the God-advice she senses in her spirit.
The life that Angela Burgin had prayed for seemed to be at hand when she finally married her love, Samson Logan, and the couple learned they were expecting their first child. The Queen City couple’s life started to unravel soon after as her dream of becoming a mother turned into a nightmare.
Angela sought the advice and help of her doctor when she experienced mysterious and unusual symptoms, but the doctor said it was all in her head. In her heart, Angela knew that something terrible could happen to her and her baby.
In Breathe, Angela and Samson share their soul-stirring experience in a beautiful but gut-wrenching account that will give you a glimpse of hope in the darkest of times.

God desires to draw all people to Himself. He is awakening the world through the reconciling love of Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit. What if the Lord was already awakening you, your family, your church, your city? Are you willing to let His Spirit, without warning, sweep through your own life?

- the unpredictable, untamed purposefulness of God to draw His church to Himself through ordinary and anonymous Christians.
- how the power of prayer has found extraordinary new expression within Christians who have raised the name of Jesus above a denomination or ministry.
- human impediments to God-initiated and sustained spiritual awakening.
- ten principles to discern current revivals.
- how to seek and follow Jesus, who has promised to do far more than you could ever imagine or request!

“Tom Phillips describes a spiritual reawakening that is transforming the lives of everyday people, and how your life too can be changed.”
—Luis Palau, worldwide evangelist
Signs of a coming revival seem to be appearing all around us. Tom Phillips shares some extraordinary insights and encouragement in this “cutting edge” book. Every Christian will be both blessed and challenged by reading it and responding to its message.
—Paul A. Cedar, President, Mission America Coalition
At a time when all the tabloids, talk shows, and enemies in high places are slandering our Lord and the gospel, God has been working quietly to undermine their strategies and revive His work. At this very moment, there is a mighty move of God mushrooming to unprecedented levels, eclipsing everything to the contrary. A spirit of anticipation is everywhere.

America’s spiritual history has included significant tides of spiritual awakening that influenced entire generations for Christ. Over and over again, God has rescued us when we have united together in prayer. Following the low spiritual tide of the last few decades, America is once again poised to see an inrushing of God’s presence that will drive away darkness and despair. Dr. Phillips’ new book, Jesus Now, charts a course for your involvement in this new awakening. Together we can see America’s spiritual tide rise again!
—Dr. William M. Wilson, President, Oral Roberts University
“The Kingdom of God is not going to arrive on Air Force One,” said Chuck Colson. Politicians are not going to save America. Wall Street is not going to save America. If America is to be saved, Tom Phillips’ new book, Jesus Now, points to the cure: Jesus. Jesus Now reinforces Fyodor Dostoevsky’s insight, “The West has lost Christ, and that is why it is dying; that is the only reason.”
—David Lane, American Renewal Project
Perhaps one of the most important aspects of revival is hope—the hope that God is not done with us yet and is preparing to do a new thing in our midst. Tom Phillips gives us that hope powerfully in his new book, Jesus Now. Your prayers for revival will arise on fresh wings of hope after reading this book.
—Dr. David Butts, Chairman, America’s National Prayer Committee
In a nation that has its share of bad news, Jesus Now is like a refreshing breeze of hope. Tom Phillips’ passion for revival and awakening will not only inspire you to believe but challenge you to become engaged in this next great move of God in America.

The title of this book says it all and echoes the hearts of Christians all across this nation: we need Jesus now!

Our country will then be the key servant-leader God intended it to be, promoting truth, justice, compassion, and love. We enthusiastically endorse Jesus Now.

I’ve had the privilege of knowing Dr. Phillips for many years, partnered in ministry with him, and served on various boards together. His passion for God and for revival is consistent and unwavering. Tom’s book, Jesus Now, is an amazing resource born out of a lifetime of his personal hunger, study, experiences, and contending for the authentic. Jesus Now not only inspires us through what God has done in past revivals, but also equips us with practical understanding of their commonalities and potential hindrances. This is a much-needed book with a timely message by a man who truly understands what it will take to see a great awakening and mighty harvest.

Drawing upon their own professional and personal experiences, Coughlin and Julian not only offer their insights and wisdom as to how one can navigate life’s storms with clarity and conviction, but do so while leading the reader on an intimate journey emerging from their own spiritual and personal renewal. Be forewarned: reading this book will not only cause one to reexamine and reassess his or her current status in life, professional or personal, but will provide scriptural principles necessary to pursue a life of influence rather than a life of affluence. Coughlin and Julian use various passages of Scripture to drive home the strategic importance of being grounded and balanced, both spiritually and personally. I recommend Five Bold Choices to those individuals who may be re-examining their standing in life or who simply need quiet reassurance that they are on the right path.

“How long, O Lord?” “When will you answer my prayer?” “Why must I wait so long for your promise to be fulfilled?”
The Christian journey is not endless bliss with perfect relationships and an abundant financial portfolio. Perfection can only be found in Christ. Even though lovers of God experience fullness of life, they still face unexpected trials, unpredictable difficulties, and seemingly unsolvable problems.
Every child of God will have a wilderness experience, but not everyone has to have a wilderness wandering.
In The Wilderness, Brian and Candice share some of their difficult seasons as tribal missionaries in Central and South America where they encountered demonic powers, lost their possessions in a flooding river, and experienced their daughter being bitten by a venomous snake. Combined with the wilderness encounters the Israelites faced, these stories will help you understand your own challenges of faith, delayed answers to prayer, and miraculous interventions that display God’s glory.
God wants to bring you from the wilderness to a miracle. You will make it through to the other side and discover God’s heart of love for you!
Review(s):
In the years that I have known Dr. Brian Simmons, I have found him to be a man of great integrity, prophetic insight, and theological wisdom. Brian has now written one of the most practical books concerning our spiritual Journey with God that is of vital significance for the season in which we are living. The reality is, the Lord will oftentimes take people through a wilderness experience to bring them to the pinnacle of their destiny and intimate fellowship with Him. The Wilderness: Where Miracles Are Born provides practical insight, great wisdom, and prophetic strategy to not only recognize and understand our wilderness experience, but benefit from it with maximum results and emerge from it with expediency. I highly recommend this book and trust that you, the reader will understand your life in a more profound way and embrace your prophetic destiny and spiritual calling with greater vigor and determination. As the Scriptures teach, the bride of Christ comes out of the wilderness leaning upon her Beloved.

Review(s):
In this 21-week Bible study, T. C. Stallings challenges us to take a hard look in the mirror and decide if we are a “participant” or “true team player” for Christ. What an awesome study to bring us closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
─ Ryan Russell, Director of Athletic Performance for Auburn University Football
It's refreshing to see T. C. Stallings boldly living for Christ. His experiences as a former college and professional athlete give him the much-needed credibility within the world of athletics, which, in essence, allows him to be his brothers’ keeper. As iron sharpens iron, one person sharpens another (Proverbs 27:17). My prayer is that you will use this devotional to sharpen your spiritual skills, get you off the sideline, and fearlessly play on God's team!

Drama. Romance. Intrigue. The Bible contains all the elements of a blockbuster movie, and the book of Ruth is one of the best. Latte for Life: 45 Devotions from the Book of Ruth studies the life of Ruth as she marries, loses her husband, follows her mother-in-law to an unknown land, and finds love again.
Each reading includes:
- Scripture from Ruth and life-infusing commentary it—just like that delicious first taste of coffee in the morning.
- Daily reflection and conversation with God that will sweeten your life.
- Other relevant Scriptures that leave you craving for more.
- A final quote to be savored like that last drop of coffee.
Sacrificial love and happy endings aren’t always fictional. God has already written a beautiful love story for you. All you have to do is accept it.
Review(s):
Author Renae Brumbaugh Green enjoys her real-life romantic comedy life or endures it (depending on how much coffee she’s had)! Her latest book, Latte for Life: 45 Devotions from the Book of Ruth, inspires us to see how the almost fairy-tale yet true account of Ruth and Boaz is similar to our own love story with the Prince of Peace—complete with happy ending. If you love Rom-Coms, coffee, grinning, and Jesus, this book’s for you.

Before you open your eyes or say a word each morning, a few precious moments have the potential to place you on the pathway of peace and hope. Make these seconds count. They are more important than you can even imagine!
In Wake Up Smiling, Audrey shares her very personal journey of taking three simple Bible verses and believing them in a way that some may say is outrageous. Living heaven on earth has become very real for her, and every morning she wakes up with hope. If you’re ready to live, dream, and experience freedom from worry and fear, Jesus really is as close as the mention of His name. He’s waiting to share His secrets with those who will abandon all and say, “I am ready.”
God has a recipe for hope for you. It is practical, it will turn your life around, and it starts as you wake up.

It’s been over twelve years since we personally witnessed Audrey experience a dramatic breakthrough when she completely received the beautiful forgiveness of Jesus. It was tangible and real. Since that moment when she “threw off” the cloak of shame, she hasn’t looked back. We prayed for her that night in her parents’ living room, and since then we have seen her walk in an authority of joy and freedom that is contagious and miraculous. You can’t help but smile and receive practical strategy as you follow the journey to happiness that Audrey has walked and laid out here in this book. Read every page of Wake Up Smiling. It will help you see how much you were created for new levels of breakthrough!

Wake Up Smiling is a book every person should read. The reason this book is so powerful is because I know this about Audrey Meisner. She is completely authentic. Her words emerge from a life of applying God’s truth. There’s nothing theoretical in her teaching. She is completely transparent. For the benefit of others, she never holds back. She is a true Jesus girl who bases her every belief in the life, teaching, death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus.
—James B. Richards, PhD, ThD
Audrey Meisner is by nature a happy, joyful person. But that’s not what qualifies her to write this book. Audrey has walked through deep valleys of grief, heartbreak, and impossible circumstances, only to emerge with profound passion and a firmer grasp of God’s great love for her and for others (like you). This is not a surfacey book about the benefits of smiling (although, Audrey definitely points out the benefits of smiling). This is an honest look at what hinders our joy and why it matters. Do you believe it’s possible to embrace life with a heart of expectancy and faith? Do you want to wake up smiling because you’re someone Jesus loves and sings over? Read this book. It’s like a cup of cool water: good for the heart and good for the soul.

Cheryl has a deep, quiet, yet vibrant faith for our Lord Jesus Christ. Her kind heart, poignant words, and clear insights to the truth scripture reveals are very apparent in her writings. Her time studying Jesus’ miracles to write this devotional is not only evident on every page, it’s truly a reflection of the author’s genuine and humble character. Not only will you get a glimpse of her heartfelt and steadfast love for our Savior, you will encounter Him in a new and exciting way each day!

What a pleasure to commend the Miracles of Jesus to you. Two millennia ago God revealed Himself to man through the incarnation of His Son, Jesus Christ, using miracles to convey the truth of Christ’s identity as God in the flesh to all mankind. I am grateful to my friend and Sunday school classmate, Cheryl, for bringing these miracles to the fore of our hearts, minds, and souls, for God’s revelation to man continues to this day. Hebrews 2:1-4. Through both devotional and scripture study, Cheryl takes us on a journey to examine Christ, the living God, as He impacted the world during His brief years of earthly ministry, and as He impacts the world today, offering the exclusive gift of salvation to all who would believe. I am grateful that God placed Cheryl and me on a journey together that crossed paths for a number of years at Bethany Baptist Church in Peoria, Illinois. Cheryl and her husband, Tom, were always faithful members of the church, bible studies, choir, Sunday school, and committed themselves to the body of Christ in fellowship with their brothers and sisters. It is a joy to witness Cheryl spreading her love for the Lord through this expression of her saving faith in Jesus Christ. I know that Cheryl’s love for the Lord has driven and empowered her to produce this devotional/study, and it is her singular desire that all may grow in their faith through the study of Christ’s miracles. Thank you, Cheryl, for sharing your gifts with us, and for your love for Jesus which touches each of these pages.

I felt quite honored that Cheryl asked me to write a character reference on her behalf. This opportunity gave me the chance to reflect back on our friendship over the past twenty years. In addition to being a devoted Christian, she is a loving wife, mother, sister, and friend. At the loss of her much-beloved sister, I watched as Cheryl turned to God for strength. She expresses joy and sorrow through her poetry, and I am the proud owner of one written just for me. Cheryl has reached out to her community with great compassion. She has done volunteer work at the pregnancy center. She didn’t just volunteer time, Cheryl gave her heart. She took a deep interest in the lives of many of the women there. Before long, she was planning baby showers to bless the new mothers. I remember the colorful pinafores Cheryl had sewn to send to the mission field. She was so careful to make every detail perfect. Her comment to me was, “I have to make something for the boys, too”. Although Cheryl has moved from Illinois to Georgia, our friendship is connected heart to heart. Whenever we get together, it is as if we were never apart.

I have known Cheryl Sharpe for several years and found her to be a wonderful Christian lady. She is giving of her time and talents to those in need and never asks for anything in return. I worked with her on the movie the Champion, where she again served with the utmost integrity. She is a loving wife to her husband, Tom. She certainly has a servant’s heart and is a fine model for young ladies to follow.

I have known Cheryl and her husband for more than six years and have completed landscaping projects and yard maintenance for them during this time. Cheryl’s love of the Lord shows in her desire for natural and beautiful landscaping; creating a little bit of heaven on earth. As I have noticed professionally, she is prompt in responding to the needs of her yard as well as to other people and organizations within her community. She loves the Lord, and it shows in her actions. Her integrity and attention to detail make it a pleasure doing business with her.

I had the pleasure of meeting Cheryl Sharpe in the spring of 2009 when my husband and I joined the Sunday school class she and her husband were members of. Immediately, Cheryl impressed me as being a very welcoming, warm and gentle soul. As I began to know Cheryl on a more personal level through Sunday school activities and bible study, I found Cheryl to be woman of exceptional Christian character. She has a humble spirit, never wanting recognition for her countless kind and generous acts. Cheryl has a sweet and tender servant’s heart. She is always looking for opportunities to serve rather than be served. She would much rather give than receive. Cheryl is also a strong leader in the many organizations she is involved in. Never quick to answer or pass judgement, she offers biblically sound, godly, wise counsel to women when asked. She is compassionate, loving, and respectful of everyone she meets. A woman of grand integrity. Over the last six years I have had the opportunity to spend a great deal of time with Cheryl. Her friendship to me has been a tremendous blessing.

I was excited to hear that Cheryl was writing a devotional on the miracles of Jesus. For the believer, Jesus’ miracles are a constant reminder of his supreme power while foreshadowing the greatest of his miracles: Christ’s death and resurrection. Cheryl does a terrific job in guiding the reader on this journey into Jesus’ life and lordship, illustrating the importance of Jesus’ miracles and their significance to the gospel.
Last summer, I had the pleasure of working with Cheryl on the movie Champion. Champion is a story of faith and fatherhood as the lives of two men intersect - each struggling to find forgiveness. Cheryl served faithfully as our production office coordinator. Her loyal and willing spirit was a breath of fresh air as she helped our team organize the overwhelming task of producing a feature film. We desire to see many lives changed, as Champion will release to theaters in the spring of 2017. This would have never have been possible without the dedication and hardworking spirit of crew members like Cheryl.
I believe the acts of miracles serve as a road map to Jesus’s ministry. In Mark 1:15 it tells us “Jesus performs many miracles, demonstrating his power over nature and spirits, and thus confirming that the Kingdom of God is at hand.” Let Cheryl’s insight and passion for Jesus guide you to discovering Christ’s compassion for humanity. It is my prayer that Miracles of Jesus will provide rich insight and bring comfort to your soul!

Like those who have gone before us, when we are filled with joy, we will discover fuel in these ancient songs for even higher praises. And when we are going through the valley of deepest darkness, we will find in the Psalms light shining upon us, driving the shadows of doubt away.
