If anyone asked her, Kaiya West would have said she was perfectly happy with her life as it was--an educated woman and successful teacher, a loved and appreciated daughter, sister, and friend, and a faithful Christian. Onlookers would have had no trouble believing her either. Yet she felt an empty space growing within her; a part of her heart yearning for love, companionship, and freedom from a life of loneliness. After failed relationship after failed relationship, she turned to anything and almost anyone to help her temporarily fill that seemingly insatiable void. Her once controlled life became hasty and careless until her actions of one night came with life-altering, faith-shaking consequences. Mistakes to Miracles tells not only the story of one woman's passage into motherhood, but a story of a broken spirit made complete by the power of God. A soon-to-be single mother's shame and guilt transformed into forgiveness and determination as she perseveres through strained relationships with herself and others, complications with her pregnancy, and victoriously overcomes resulting in a new refined faith in Christ Jesus. Mistakes to Miracles is an inspiring testimony to God's sovereign power and ability to provide peace and comfort in times of trial. It illustrates His ability to calm and heal even the most broken of spirits, and His most extraordinary works can be carried out by one of life's most fragile and innocent miracles, a baby.

Hope Carpenter opens up about her personal struggles that nearly destroyed her family, her church, and her ministry, but then God did something miraculous—out of her brokenness, He made something beautiful. As co-pastor of one of the nation's largest megachurches, Hope Carpenter had perfected the roles of supportive wife, good mother, devoted worship leader, and dutiful homemaker. But inside, she was secretly ashamed, sad, and afraid. She didn't know who she was, and she didn't know how to ask for help without bringing down the whole façade. A series of bad choices led to multiple affairs; her husband kicked her out and announced from the pulpit of their church that their marriage was over. Hope was sure her life was done. But in her lowest moments, something beautiful happened. God met her there, and, with a lot of hard work, time, and mountains of therapy, she started to understand the pain that had caused her to act out. She and her family faced their brokenness together, and in powerful acts of forgiveness only God could have arranged, they all found real breakthrough and healing. Ron and Hope rebuilt their marriage and their family, and their ministry thrives today. In The Most Beautiful Disaster, Hope helps readers understand the lasting impact of childhood trauma and gives readers practical steps to uncovering the root of pain in their own lives. She shows how small decisions can lead to big changes, and helps readers find healing and wholeness in Scripture and prayer. Ultimately, readers will be led to hope, reconciliation, and true freedom.

He left KoRn to help himself. He went back to help others. And along the way, he nearly lost everything. A life-changing spiritual awakening freed Brian “Head” Welch from a stranglehold of drugs and alcohol and prompted him to leave the highly successful nu-metal band KoRn in 2005. What followed was a decade-long trial by fire, from the perils of fathering a teen lost in depression and self-mutilation to the harsh realities of playing solo and surviving the shattering betrayal of a trusted friend. In this intensely inspiring redemption saga, perhaps most inspiring is Brian’s radical decision to rejoin KoRn and reconcile with the tribe of people he once considered family in the metal music scene. Brian returned to his musical roots with a clear head and a devoted heart. Though his story is wild, hilarious, and deeply poignant, the message is simple: God will love you into the freedom of being yourself, as long as you keep the relationship going and never, ever quit.
