When Winona Ruth Anderson was just twelve, she started discussing world events with her father. The year was 1932, when Germany was becoming an increased threat to Europe and Japan's aggression was growing. Winona's life was turned upside-down on December 7, 1941, when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and drew the United States into World War II. Working in a drugstore as an apprentice pharmacist and managing the soda fountain, Winona made the best sodas around, but she felt she had to do something for the war effort. After leaving her job, Winona joined the US Navy WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) in 1943, and served as a Hospital Corpsman at Corona Naval Hospital in Norco, California, caring for injured Sailors and Marines flown back from the war in the Pacific Theater. What Would Your Father Say? offers an up-close and personal glimpse of what it was like for women to serve during the war and the toll it took on American heroes. Filled with joy, sorrow, laughter, and romance, the book uncovers a crucial time in history while addressing the mental and physical adjustments to a changed world facing many of today's servicemen and servicewomen.

Janices memoir leads her readers on a sometimes sad, often jubilant jaunt through her young years in a long-gone rural Iowa. Poverty, the death of her young father, and stints in an orphanage, a foster home and a convent all propel her to an adulthood where she finds peace -- with herself and with God. Janices stories -- of smoking nuns, illicit fudge, wash day, sibling rivalry, learning to drive, secret viewing of White Christmas, working at Rays Drive Inn, and searching for diamonds in the privy -- engage the adventuresome and the quirky sides of all of us. And they reveal why her mother so often declared her father would be turning over in his grave if he knew what they were doing! Readers will find hope, faith and trust in a Power greater than we are as they travel this journey with her.

When we live with unresolved anger or hurt, the result is nearly always bitterness, broken relationships, and unhealthy behaviors. Unforgiveness not only sabotages our interactions with those around us, it impedes our own spiritual growth and inner peace. And it can happen to anyone. In her most vulnerable writing yet, Ruth Graham reveals how a visit to Angola Prison inspired her to release the unforgiveness lurking in her own heart--toward others, herself, and even her heavenly Father and her earthly father, evangelist Billy Graham. In this encouraging book, she weaves her own personal experiences with biblical examples to explore what holds us back from forgiving others and ourselves--and what we gain when we finally discover the power to forgive. Along the way, she guides us into our own deeply personal experiences of forgiveness that will penetrate our protective walls and unleash true transformation in our lives.

God is a Loving Father. But is that what you have experienced? What comes to mind when you hear the word "father" or "dad"? Does it stir up references of love, hope and empowerment? To experience the love of God in i's greatest measure, we need to encounter God in His identity, as a Father. Everything that Jesus lived out was designed to show us what the heart of the Father is like. Even so, masses of Christians are going to Jesus, yet avoiding the Father. To them, their reference of father has been wounded or left empty. As a result, the enemy works relentlessly to keep us from experiencing the great love that our Heavenly Father extends to us. This book will help heal your lens of what father means and usher you into a renewed and powerful relationship with Abba; your Dad. In this book, you will be encouraged to discover: - The two greatest needs that you have in your heart. - What keeps us from knowing who God is as Father? - How to overcome flawed earthly father experiences. Allow yourself to break through the hinderances that make you feel far from God and experience His love like never before!

My father was the happiest man I ever knew. One of the reasons for this was his singing faith. To feel the significance of this, you need to understand that he was a fundamentalist. That's not a bad word in my vocabulary. And he's the reason. Fundamentals are worth dying for and fighting for. But that fight has killed the Song in the hearts of many people. But not in Bill Piper.
