Have you ever been in the presence of someone, if only for a few minutes, who touched you so deeply that your life would never be the same? Who shared with you nuggets of wisdom and optimism for life in such a way that you would never forget? Kenneth George Old was such a man. As if serving as a missionary in Pakistan for thirty-three years wasn't extraordinary enough, God continued to use Ken even after he retired. Ken ministered through relationships, thought-provoking sermons, and even made-up stories for the children. Join Patty Old West in commemorating Ken's life—from a whirlwind romance to streams of visitors from around the world and the constant hand of God orchestrating a multitude of remarkable events. Ken's life was a kaleidoscope of activity. Wherever he went, whatever he did, he was able to reach out and touch others for God. Let Once Met, Never Forgotten share this same touch and leave you forever changed.

Inspired by true events, The Wartime Book Club is an unforgettable story of everyday bravery and resistance, full of romance, drama, and camaraderie and a tribute to the joy of reading and the power of books in our darkest hour. The Isle of Jersey was once a warm and neighborly community, but in 1943, German soldiers patrol the cobbled streets, imposing a harsh rule. Nazis have ordered Grace La Mottée, the island's only librarian, to destroy books that threaten the new regime. Instead, she hides the stories away in secret. Along with her headstrong best friend, she wants to fight back. So she forms the Wartime Book Club: a lifeline, offering fearful islanders the joy and escapism of reading. But as the occupation drags on, the women's quiet acts of bravery become more perilous – and more important – than ever before. And when tensions turn to violence, they are forced to face the true, terrible cost of resistance . . . Based on astonishing real events, The Wartime Book Club is a love letter to the power of books in the darkest of times – as well as a moving page-turner that brings to life the remarkable, untold story of an island at war.
