"Growing up on Cape Cod in the 1960s, Liza Rodman was a lonely little girl. During the summers, while her mother worked days in a local motel and danced most nights in the Provincetown bars, her babysitter--the kind, handsome handyman at the motel where her mother worked--took her and her sister on adventures in his truck. He bought them popsicles and together, they visited his 'secret garden' in the Truro woods ... Everyone thought he was just a 'great guy.' But there was one thing she didn't know: their babysitter was a serial killer. Some of his victims were buried--in pieces--right there, in his garden in the woods"--

Packed with research, insights, and illuminating (and often funny) examples from Paris’s own divorce experience, this book is a “practical and reassuring guide to parting well.” —Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project Engaging and revolutionary, filled with wit, searing honesty, and intimate interviews, Splitopia is a call for a saner, more civil kind of divorce. As Paris reveals, divorce has improved dramatically in recent decades due to changes in laws and family structures, advances in psychology and child development, and a new understanding of the importance of the father. Positive psychology expert and author of Happier, Tal Ben-Shahar, writes that Paris’s “personal insights, stories, and research” create “a smart and interesting guide that can be extremely helpful for those going through divorce.” Reading this book can be the difference between an expensive, ugly battle and a decent divorce, between children sucked under by conflict or happy, healthy kids. This is “a compelling case that it’s high time for a new definition of Happily Ever After—for everyone” (Brigid Schulte, author of Overwhelmed: Work, Love, and Play When No One Has the Time).

A survival kit is an absolute must in danger zones, often determining whether we survive, barely make it or perish through unpreparedness. We also need a survival kit to navigate the storms of life battering our mental, emotional and spiritual health. This book was written specifically to address the 10 grave problems facing humanity from a Christian perspective. SURVIVAL KIT examines these challenges and the fears and apprehension of countless millions who have lost hope that their governments/leaders can solve their everyday concerns. The book is both practical and devotional, with sensible and spiritual suggestions.

The Remnant refers to a continuous community (large or small) of God’s people who were or are spiritually preserved throughout various dispensations….Abraham’s descendants preserved from all attempts by the enemy to destroy them. Remnant believers make deliberate choices to obey God at all costs. They have boldness and courage, refusing to submit to the prevailing values and norms of society. Are you a REMNANT believer?
