From back of book -
The dramatic sequel to the bestselling The Shunning!
Katie Lapp\'s identity had been shattered the moment she found the satin baby dress in the attic of her parents\' Amish home. Painfully torn from her close-knot community in the frightening ordeal called the shunning, Katie - now Katherine Mayfield - sets out to find the ailing birth mother she has never known.
Her journey takes her to the peaceful home of Lydia Miller, Where electric lights and telephones set Katherine\'s mind whirling with \"fancy\" things, and on to the elaborate Bennett estate in the Finger Lakes region of New York. There she stumbles into a world of compassion and greed, mercy, and betrayal - where the plain garb of the Amish is misused to disguise an evil conspiracy.
Shunned from her home and alone in a world of strangers, Katherine Mayfield longs only for the gentle embrace of the woman she hopes to call Mother.

True story about a man who was a captain in the Glendale, CA fire dept. & respected as one of Califonria's top arson investigators. He turned out to actually be the psychopath arsonist who was setting the fires he was "investigating". Fairly well written, scary, and interesting. Does contain more profanity than I care to read, though.

From the book cover...
Who killed Libby Zion?
At 11:43 PM on March 4, 1984, 18-yr-old Libby Zion entered the emergency room of New York Hospital. It was just a precaution. The pretty college freshman and daughter of two prominent New Yorkers was exhibiting flu-like symptoms and running a fever.
At 3 AM, Libby\'s parents left the hospital, assured that their daughter was in good hands.
By 7:30 AM, Libby was dead.
What went wrong?
In riveting detail, The Girl Who Died Twice reveals what really happened to Libby Zion during her hours at the hospital as it chronicles the fateful series of events that led up to her death. At once a gripping human drama and a cautinary tale, this masterly work reveals for the first time the truth about Libby Zion\'s life and death, as well as the hidden risks every patient takes when entering a hospital. It re-creates a father\'s passionate campaign for justice. It explores the jury\'s startling verdict. And it exposes the inner workings of modern medicine - and the complex dynamics of an American family - in a searing drama that no one can afford to miss.

From the back cover of the book:
"Spiritual growth is not the same in every Christian," writes Sinclair Ferguson. "It is not possible to neatly package the ways in which God brings us to maturity and then suggest that everyone must fit into this pattern. That would be fooish and unbiblical."
After dispensing with pat formulas, Ferguson leads us through a rich study of the spiritual growth of Jesus and several other biblical characters.
Ferguson describes the spiritual disciplines of Bible study, prayer, and fellowship with God's people. But he goes further to explain essential principles of grace which must take root in the believer's heart: a healthy fear of the Lord, a continual longing to know God, an understanding of the crucified life, genuine love of others, and an experience of the free, full love of God. He then illustrates the nature of our individual differences through lively character studies: Daniel's steady growth, Peter's fits and starts, and Timothy's trials.
Enjoyable reading by a gifted author, this book offers sound, biblical advice to the young Christian, and needed encouragement to the disciple who wants to go deeper in his relationship with God. In a fresh and creative style, this book teaches us that "spiritual progress should not be measured only by outward evidences." As Ferguson says, "spiritual growth will always involve understanding, appreciating, receiving and enjoying the grace of God." This book will help you experience more of God's grace for joyful, lifelong progress toward maturity.

Caught With Their Hands In The Cookie Jar, October 20, 2002
Reviewer: "maestroh" (San Atntonio, TX) -
James Spencer is an ex-Mormon who ought to understand a thing or two about heresy and the importance of TRUE Christian doctrine. If Mormonism is NOT a heresy, Spencer had no reason to convert from his former position.
It is this fact that saddens me in his counter-attack upon anybody and everybody who is not a Word of Faith Christian. Spencer's experiential Christianity is every bit as bad as his previous experience with Mormonism.
I want to keep it clean, but Spencer's book is typically spineless. He has NO problem lambasting the ministry of John MacArthur (whose cessationism Spencer despises; Spencer devoted an entire chapter to MacArthur), but he doesn't want teachers who are DEMONSTRABLY lying (like Paul Crouch, Mike Warnke, and Benny Hinn) to be called to account for their lies.
Heresy hunting is a new inflammatory term that was invented to dismiss any honest inquiry. Spencer defends this position immaculately, but his entire book misses the point. Paul Crouch, who wrote the foreward, states that "one theologian's heresy is another theologian's orthodoxy." He further claims that contending for the faith (mentioned in Jude 3) refers to Christ, the virgin birth, crucifixion, resurrection, forgiveness by cleansing blood, and future judgment are the only "essentials." Crouch concludes by writing, "beyond these absolute essentials...there is infinite room for honest men and women to disagree..." Thus, according to Paul Crouch - who, again, wrote the foreward - the authority and infallibility of Scripture, the Trinity, salvation by grace ALONE are NOT essential to saving faith. It is for this reason that both Crouch and his hired defender, Spencer, completely miss the mark.
I will agree that critics of some Faith teachers have overstated their case (Hanegraaff in particular). However, Spencer uses the overstatement as a carte blanche for those who are teaching heresy to demonize people like Hanegraaff and Mac Arthur. He excuses retaliatory remarks made by Crouch and Hinn while condemning "heresy hunters."
If only James Spencer was as concerned about doctrinal purity and truth - i.e. "the faith" of Jude 3 - as he is about a straw man called heresy hunting, he might have written an interesting book. Sadly, his only means of defense is to demonize the demonizers. You would be much better off saving money or buying a fair and balanced book, "The Word-Faith Controversy" by now fired Hanegraaff employee, Dr. Robert Bowman.

Reviewer: www.DavidLRattigan.com (United Kingdom) -
One is left with the feeling that whilst in principle it is right to judge doctrine, even publicly, in practice there are not many ways of doing this without offending someone of James' sensibility. He feels that certain teachers have been unfairly criticised for their 'little gods' doctrine, yet the only evidence he offers for this is a very shallow comparison with the patristic doctrine of divinisation. He fails to reasonably demonstrate, with evidence, exactly what is wrong with the critiques that have been levelled at this teaching. One cannot help but feel that the author's run-in with the Tanners (ch. 6) is a bit of a sore spot which, because of the personal and sensitive issues involved, Spencer would have been wiser to have left alone. Having said that, there are helpful points which need to be heard by the 'heresy hunters', and they are very serious points to do with integrity and honesty. It is just unfortunate that the tone of the book seems to pander to those whose teachings raise the most concerns (hence the book's popularity at TBN) and comes across as a defence of Word-Faith etc. an approach which will only alienate those who need to hear some of its warnings.
Put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity ..., September 3, 2000 Reviewer: Jo E. Screen (GREENFIELD CENTER, NY USA) -
I read this book when it first came out and it opened my eyes and broke my heart. Opened my eyes to the bitter betrayal of brother against brother, and broke my heart for the sake of our Savior, who died for us all and asked -- no, commanded -- only one thing from us: "Love one another, as I have loved you." Instead of hunting heresy, we should be bonding in unity on that which we can agree .. GENTLY REBUKING one another on those things on which we believe that cannot be Scripturally defended. Just as we are to love the sinner, but hate the sin, in the same way we are to love the brethren without wrath or dissention (1 Tim 2:8). Who is the accuser of the brethren? Satan. Who does the work of Satan on this earth? The brethren who accuse other brethren. Does Jesus need our help to "root out and pluck up" the tares? No; He has expressly forbidden it, lest the tares be plucked up with the wheat. Our Lord is AMPLY ABLE to judge His own house and His own servants -- He does not need us to do so. Indeed, we are warned against "judging another's servants" are we not? I encourage anyone who has been hurt by believing accusations leveled by the "heresy hunters" against the brethren to read this book, then to put it behind them and then go forward in their Christian walk by observing the Eleventh Commandment as our Lord has bid us to do -- "Love one another."

Not only was Dave's mother a great cook, but she had an amazing knack - between the chopped liver and the strudel - for solving his most difficult murder cases. Possibly because no detail, no matter how trivial, ever escaped that rattrap brain of hers.
When the Reverend Chuck Candy is found dead three days before Christmas, it's more than ill-times murder. It's a complex case of religious fanatacism, illicit affairs and small-town bigotry. Dave - an inverstigator for the public defender - believes an innocent man is being framed. And he knows only one person in Mesa Grande, Colorado, can untangle the web of unlikely connections and sinister intentions: Mom.

The harsh world of Maya is run by the Changed; a carefully inbred aristocracy clustered in their hillside city, high above the wretched swarms of human colonists. For generations now the Changed have been altering their own genes and their children's. They're smarter, faster, longer-lived - and acutely aware of their own superiority. What they don't admit is that they have become a separate species.
Every year, the Changed allow a handpicked group of human children to come and be tested alongside their own. But the Changed know, as the humans do not, that it's a sham. The humans will always fail. It's a subtle way of teaching them their place.
Then, one year, Arsen shows up: strong, smart, charismatic, and not at all convinved of the superiority of the Changed. No problem, really - until he hookos up with Della, born and bred Changed but every bit as rebellious.
What the two of them start will tip their whole universe as they know it over on its side, and start it rolling downhill...

This book is the sequel to "A Time to Dance", which I have not yet gotten to read, but it was still excellent & easy to follow on its own. Another great Karen Kingsbury story that demonstrates how God can take the trials in our lives and use them for our good and His glory. Her characters are never "too-good-to-be-true" Christians, but people who face real world problems, struggle, sometimes fall, and eventually find redemption. Her books are hard to put down!
