Anyone who's given a thought about the meaning of liberty & this life, whether there is a God, life after death, spiritual awakening and joy, deep love, forgiveness & peace of mind will find the answers in this unique book. Thorns of Joy vividly describes the thorny and dark life in oppression under the Soviet communism, the intense and unique escape to freedom from the Soviet tanks, abiding love and heartbreak, even agony & ecstasy sprinkled with many adventures & trials. It culminates in the Joy of finding God in the wilderness and the ensuing complete transformation from an atheist into a believer. It is a passionate witness that God is the author of our Liberties & that He is approachable. Michelangelo was indeed inspired; his Adam on the grand ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome touching, almost, the finger of God is not a fantasy or a fairytale. Hope, faith & charity are a reality. The transcending power of God and the sacred journey of enlightenment are priceless. Thorns of Joy will make you laugh, shed a tear or two, hold you breath, think, dream, learn, and maybe even change your outlook on life. It was written to change your life. It contains grains of hard won wisdom, joy and insight into the human condition.

"I will become the monster they expect. I will be the nightmare that nightmares dread." After Procyon's mother sells him to a monster in a castle, he agrees to serve it to protect the only person left that he cares for. That is, until he can twist his knife into its stomach. But his plan to kill the monster is ruined by a secret so dark and twisted that it will change the course of his life forever. Meanwhile, Lavine's sister is kidnapped by the most brutal and merciless kind of monsters. But the closer she gets to uncovering her sister's whereabouts, the more she understands the horrifying truth. She'll need to use the darkest, most corrupting part of her soul magic to save her. Too bad the price just might be her own soul. Heir of Thorns is the gripping prequel to the epic YA series, The Crest of Blackthorn. It can be read before or after any title in the series, though the events take place before the first book, Wither Thorn.

"Provocative in the way it explodes and expands the category of historical fiction." --Salt Lake Tribune In this beautifully written and powerful debut novel, Ella Joy Olsen traces the stories of five fascinating women who inhabit the same historic home over the course of a century—braided stories of love, heartbreak and courage connect the women, even across generations. Ivy Baygren has two great loves in her life: her husband, Adam, and the bungalow they buy together in one of the oldest neighborhoods in Salt Lake City, Utah. From the moment she and Adam lay eyes on the home, Ivy is captivated by its quaint details—the old porch swing, ornate tiles, and especially an heirloom rose bush bursting with snowy white blossoms. Called the Emmeline Rose for the home’s original owner, it seems yet another sign that this place will be Ivy’s happily-ever-after...Until her dreams are shattered by Adam’s unexpected death. Striving to be strong for her two children, Ivy decides to tackle the home-improvement projects she and Adam once planned. Day by day, as she attempts to rebuild her house and her resolve, she uncovers clues about previous inhabitants, from a half-embroidered sampler to buried wine bottles. And as Ivy learns about the women who came before her—the young Mormon torn between her heart and anti-polygamist beliefs, the Greek immigrant during World War II, a troubled single mother in the 1960s—she begins to uncover the lessons of her own journey. For every story has its sadness, but there is also the possibility of blooming again, even stronger and more resilient than before...

Have you ever wondered where God was in the midst of difficult times? Have you ever found yourself mired in the troubles of life and feeling very alone?

"This is my own testimony about these book Necessary thorns of life. It is from a message preached by a man of God Rev. Emmanuel Ufuah. The message was too real to me and I started praising God the whole day. I was in another realm of the spirit, I was filled with joy like never before. I became so light in my body. In my life I have never had such a feeling. This book is inspirational, and to teach you how to manage thorns of life. Because they are always there at any stage in life. You can not run away from thorns. No thorn, No Crown, No thorn, No testimony." With this write up little of the testimony and about the book will give an idea about the book. Yours faithfully Edith O Agun

“Roses Amidst the Thorns” is a collection of poems which traces a couple’s intimate, twenty year relationship--their young, uninhibited love, their mature spiritual love, the breakdown of their love and the acceptance of the changes in their love. It is my hope by writing these poems to stimulate the reader in such a manner that they realize loving is universal. It is the most powerful force which governs the paths of our lives. At one time or another, we all move into similar phases within relationships. We experience common feelings, feelings which are not so unique to ourselves as they are to the human condition. Hopefully, we learn as a group to regard and cherish the rose (our loves) amidst the thorns (society and self-gratification) so that we may nurture our relationships seeking guidance, wisdom and strength from God, instead of watching them wither and die. ROSES AMIDST THE THORNS Our love began as a tiny bud. An introduction by a close friend, A flashed smile, a quick flirtation, Gentle touches with long conversations Lasting into the night. You were fire and ice A whirlwind wanting to change Your surroundings. I was struck by the sheer electricity Around you. As you entered a room An aura of blue light flooded your countenance. I felt caught up in the glow of your illumination. Tremendous growth occurred with you. The petals of my sheltered life Gently began to open. I blossomed into a radiant woman. Unafraid, I turned myself to your exposure. I drank in your rays and basted in the comfort Of your love. Encased within the beauty of the rose Are the sharp thorns which surface Randomly on the stem. I took each thorn as it emerged. Lifting my petals so they wouldn’t tear Into my blossoms. I was contented because you wanted me. The stem was strengthened By the outpouring of love and attention You showered upon me. I grew, radiated pastel colors And opened completely. For a long time I remained In this blossomed state. Taking for granted that the warmth Of your love and the light Which beamed from you Would always be there. Blinded by my comfort, I chose not to see the changes in the seasons. Yes, my petals shivered When the cold set in. But I could visualize the glow and warmth. I paid no attention to the real climate. I mentally created my own environment. For me I was still that beautiful rose You tended and loved. By the time I realized I was withered And in danger of dying I had no strength to pull my stem up. As I tried My petals gently fell to the ground. Now instead of a beautiful rose, Was a stick with thorns Lying crushed in the dirt. But as with all God’s creations He affords us the chance of rebirth And new spirit. I look forward to the Spring When all things are new. And life begins again. I WATCHED YOU CHANGE I watched you change, From the person I loved, became a part of and respected, Into someone dark, deceiving and unfeeling. Perhaps you were right. Maybe I never knew the real you. If so, I’m glad I knew The person you pretended to be. For in that person Lived kindness, strength and unshakable faith. A spiritual giant, Who inspired me to believe And reach for the stars. A gentle spirit, loving Yet firm with his children. A passionate lover, an understanding friend. I watched the metamorphosis take place. Exchanging honesty with lies, Caring with manipulation, Loving with indifference, And I mourn for my husband now lost. I watched you change. I stood by and did nothing. False pride, pain and jealously Kept me from reaching out to you. I can only hope Someday you’ll discover The courage to find yourself again. This time allowing God To make the changes in you That I’ve prayed He’d make in me. SEPARATING For me the time has come To separate myself from you. The pain of feeling our marriage Being ripped apart Is more than I can bear. I thought

Today's follower of Jesus exists at a moment in history when our desires, longings, and wants are being weaponized against us by cultural, spiritual, and relational forces. "Follow your heart" and "You do you" has become our moment's mantras. The result, for too many, is feeling torn asunder by the raging desires within. What do we do with our desire? What about our unwanted desires? And how do we cultivate desires which bring life and freedom and lead to Christ? The Gift of Thorns, by A. J. Swoboda, addresses these questions and more. The path forward is anything but easy. It is assumed by too many in the Christian community that desire is in and of itself bad or dangerous and must be crucified for simply existing. Desire is demonic for some. But, for many others--particularly in the secular West--desire must be followed through and through. This side deifies desire. But these two options sidestep the joy in the great challenge of finding God in our desire. There exists an ancient and sacred way that is forged around the life, wisdom, and power of Jesus and his Spirit. In short, what makes a follower of Christ is not whether or not we have desires. Rather, it is what we do with the desires we have. Near the end of the story of humanity's rebellion, the theme of "thorns" is introduced. As readers will discover, the thematic repetition of "thorns" pops up over and over throughout the Bible. What are the thorns for? They will be, in the words of God, "for you" (Gen. 3:18). The premise of this book is that a world where we do not get all that we want is, well, the greatest gift ever.
