A storm and its sunny aftermath come to life through gorgeous art and lyrical text. What do you do when the clouds roll in, When the wind chimes clang and the weather vanes spin? When stormy skies threaten, people stock up on supplies, bring in their outside toys, and check the news for updates. And during the storm, if the power goes out, they can play games and tell stories by candlelight. But what do animals do? They watch and listen, look for a cozy den or some other sheltered spot, and hunker down to wait. After the storm, while the people are cleaning up their yards, making repairs, and checking on the neighbors, the animals emerge from their hiding places and shake off the rain. And everyone is happy to be out in the sunshine again, grateful for better weather and the company of friends.

Music, myth, and horror blend in this romantic, “eerie…atmospheric” (Publishers Weekly) fantasy debut about a teen girl who must fight a powerful evil that’s invaded her Prince Edward Island home—perfect for fans of An Enchantment of Ravens. There’s a certain wild magic in the salt air and the thrum of the sea. Beet MacNeill has known this all her life. It added spice to her childhood adventures with her older cousin, Gerry, the two of them thick as thieves as they explored their Prince Edward Island home. So when Gerry comes up the path one early spring morning, Beet thinks nothing of it at first. But he is soaking wet and silent, and he plays a haunting tune on his fiddle that chills Beet to the bone. Something is very, very wrong. Things only get worse when Marina Shaw saunters into town and takes an unsettling interest in Gerry’s new baby. Local lore is filled with tales of a vicious shape-shifting sea creature and the cold, beautiful woman who controls him—a woman who bears a striking resemblance to Marina. Beet is determined to find out what happened to her beloved cousin, and to prevent the same fate from befalling the handsome new boy in town who is winning her heart, whether she wants him to or not. Yet the sea always exacts a price…

When youth minister Jehovah Jireh married his wife in 1993, he could not foresee the troubles and heartache that were to manifest. In Out of a Storm Comes a Blessing, he shares his story as a man of God tormented by a deceitful wife. Through his testimony, he tells how he discovered he had wed a woman with a jezebel spirit who joined an occult group that practiced sorcery and witchcraft. The story narrates how God shows up, defeats Satan in his schemes to overthrow a warrior for Jesus Christ, and teaches the devil a lesson on touching one of his anointed. Out of a Storm Comes a Blessing chronicles how Jireh’s ex-wife tried all she could to disgrace him and ruin is character, but he never gave up on God or ministry. He chronicles how the trials and tribulations only allowed him to grow stronger in the Lord and in the power of his might, turning a curse into a blessing.
