Mindy
$25.19
She sat a long time before the window, unraveling the years, searching for the dropped stitch. Mindy dreamed of teaching-if she survived tuberculosis. Then she met Carl Matthews with the sky-blue eyes-eyes that turned to ice when she asked him to go to church with her. Among the goldenrod and purple asters she gave him her heart. Then, against her father’s wishes, she gave him her hand in marriage. But would her deepening faith survive his scorn?
Originally published in 1977, Mindy soon became a classic. Long out of print, it is at last reborn to sway a new generation. Author June Strong narrates one woman’s poignant struggle between her love of family and her love of God, tracing to the bittersweet end her joys and sorrows as she raises children in a divided home. Mindy is a haunting chronicle of love, loss, and faith in the furnace.

He Numbered The Pores On My Face
$19.99Original price was: $19.99.$0.95Current price is: $0.95.Add to cartWhen Scarlet Hiltibidal was a teenager, plastic butterfly clips were all the rage. She couldn’t understand why they didn’t look the same in her “frizzy, bulbous hair” as they did on the blonde whose mom was a professional hair stylist. Back then, she would have sanctioned the destruction of scores of actual butterflies just to own the label “pretty butterfly clips girl.” And so it goes for many girls like Scarlet who strive for self-worth yet struggle to find it.
He Numbered the Pores on My Face is for teens who long for beauty, love, and rest. Any labels you long for today might as well be “looks good in butterfly clips” if you are not rooted in who Jesus says you are, because any self–centered identity is going to leave you in the same place: unfulfilled and unhappy. Girls will relate to Scarlet’s stories as she discusses hottie lists, eating disorders, and haphazard beauty in a way that is both humorous and thought provoking. Through it all, she describes how she found peace by learning to see life not through a mirror but through a Savior who shapes who we were, who we are, and who we will be.
