Hit Hard : One Family’s Journey Of Letting Go Of What Was And Learning To L
$21.99
A parent’s worst nightmare, a family forever changed, and a hope that endures through the hardest times
When their son Zach took a hard hit during a high school football scrimmage, Pat and Tammy McLeod began a forever battle: their son, though he would live, would not be the same boy they knew and loved. He would regain the ability to walk and run and even throw a football but would never fully talk or laugh or sing again. How does a family survive in the midst of such sorrow? How do we grieve someone who hasn’t really left? How can we learn to be thankful for what we still have while acknowledging the reality of what we’ve lost?
Hit Hard is the true story of the McLeods’ journey through this ambiguous loss, as they navigate what it looks like to love someone who’s here and yet not here. It’s the story of a family who has experienced the unimaginable–picking up the pieces after a life-transforming loss; defining a “new normal” for their life; and learning to accept, surrender to, and celebrate what God has given them. Your own loss may look different than the McLeods’, but if in some way life isn’t what you expected, their story will give you hope that it can still be good.

Samuel Rutherford : The Law, The Prince And The Scribe
$11.99Add to cartWhen Samuel Rutherford picked up his pen he changed lives, maybe even across continents. What he wrote influenced the American constitution but where his real power and passion was felt was in the letters that his warm pastor’s heart wrote to the people of his parish.
His book Lex Rex was burned on a pyre but his notes of comfort and wisdom were cherished by those he cared to guide and counsel.
Accused of treason he died of illness before there was time to make him a martyr and on his gravestone today, just west of the Bell Tower in St. Andrews Cathedral are engraved the striking words that sum up his life, “Acquainted with Emmanuel’s Love’.
