Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before Kevin Jennings began advocating to end anti-LGBT bias in schools, he was a victim of it. In Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son, Jennings traces the roots of his activism to his elementary school days in the conservative South, where "faggot" became more familiar to him than his own name. Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son is that rare memoir that is both a riveting personal story and an inside account of a critical chapter in our recent history. Creating safe schools for all youth is now a central part of the progressive agenda in American education—and Kevin Jennings is at the forefront of that fight. Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son earned an A- in Entertainment Weekly, was featured in Salon and The Advocate, and was called "a great read" by People.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Carl Weber has won over readers and critics alike with his smart, sexy, page-turning tales of family drama. Now he delivers his most powerful novel yet?an explosive story about an esteemed church family with a whole lot of repenting to do. . . Bishop T.K. Wilson, popular pastor of the largest African American church in Queens, New York, has decided to run for borough president. But his family values platform is on shaky ground. In public, his wife and two children are a shining example of respectability. Yet privately, the Wilson kids are giving in to the same temptations as any other young adults. And their parents have no idea what?s going on behind closed doors?including the closed doors of the church offices. As the bishop?s son, Dante Wilson is treated like royalty, and his good looks cause the congregation?s young women to think?and act on?some very impure thoughts. Personable and smart, he?s expected to assume his father?s position one day. The problem is, Dante wants to be a lawyer, and that?s not the only secret he?s keeping. He?s also met the woman of his dreams?who happens to be his parents? worst nightmare. But Dante isn?t the only one who?s about to test his parents? faith? Dante?s younger sister, Donna, is as sweet as they come, yet she isn?t exactly the virginal princess her beloved daddy thinks she is. And thanks to her suspicious, ambitious, not to mention meddling, mother, he?s about to find that out?and more. To add insult to injury, Donna?s transgressions involve another man of God. And that?s only the beginning. Just as the Pandora?s box of unwelcome surprises seems empty, it turns out that even Bishop Wilson has some skeletons in his closet?the kind that could cost him everything. Now all the Wilsons will have to face their demons?and discover what family values are really about.

Book excerpt: Jeremy Ferguson is caught between two worlds-the conservative, faith-based expectations of his Southern preacher father and his own ambitions to live the life of a model in New York City. Aura Vanderleigh is similarly trapped by her own battle for self-respect, her own family's expectations, and her dreams of a better life. As a plus-size woman, she's been indoctrinated with the belief that she doesn't deserve love, let alone the love of a beautiful white man. She is surprised-and intrigued-when Jeremy shows up at her church one day. And fate has something wonderful in store: true love. When Jeremy returns home with Aura, neither is prepared for the backlash. Will Jeremy's family be able to set aside their prejudices and accept their son's choice for a mate? Can Aura's family and friends learn to embrace her choice and believe that she deserves the love of such an extremely handsome and sexy man like Jeremy? Can they inspire compassion and tolerance in those who would tear them apart?

Book excerpt: Like most young men, Paul Banks grew up playing sports and struggling to understand the feelings rushing through his teenage body. After his mother and sister die suddenly in a car accident, Paul's life changes forever. Neither Paul nor his father seemed able to cope with the memories that living in the house they all shared. So Paul and his father decide to move to Texas, and to begin their lives anew. Paul's father, a pastor, finds a new church in which to do his work, and Paul makes a fresh start as a senior year in high school. Upon his arrival in Texas, Paul meets Jeremy Groll, the son of one of the deacon's at his father's new church. A spark soon ignites between the two young men. Feelings like he had never before experienced awaken in Paul-feelings for someone of the same sex. Now Paul must endure prejudices from not only his schoolmates, but his own father as well. Paul soon learns that his love cannot be oppressed by others. Realizing that he must be true to himself, Paul decides finally to follow his heart. In doing so the young man shows us all how you can overcome their prejudice and hate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in 1957, Jericho Walls is an unforgettable and inspiring novel about the power of friendship for a young girl growing up amid racism. "I woke early that first Sunday in Jericho. The sun was barely a stain in the sky, but the air was hot and clammy. My nightgown stuck to my skin. I padded to the bathroom and splashed my face with cold water. My stomach clenched in a queasy ball . . . I'd keep myself out of trouble in Jericho, I promised myself. I'd do all the right things and make lots of good friends and no one would care a whit about my being a preacher's daughter." Jo Clawson isn't the boy her father wanted, and she's not the "young lady" her neighbors expect of the preacher's daughter, either. But even though Jo doesn't always meet the expectations of the people around her, she still longs to fit in. When she and her family leave their northern home for the small southern town of Jericho, Alabama, Jo might finally stop picking fights and settle in right. But when Jo befriends a young black boy, she discovers that "fitting in" is about a lot more than proper manners or a smart outfit. Suddenly she's faced with a new set of questions that call up her own values. Maybe some fights are worth picking, after all.

Book excerpt: Standing at the podium, Victor Villaseñor looked at the group of educators amassed before him, and his mind flooded with childhood memories of humiliation and abuse at the hands of his teachers. He became enraged. With a pounding heart, he began to speak of these incidents. When he was through, to his great disbelief he received a standing ovation. Many in the audience could not contain their own tears. So begins the passionate, touching memoir of Victor Villaseñor. Highly gifted and imaginative as a child, Villaseñor coped with an untreated learning disability (he was finally diagnosed, at the age of forty-four, with extreme dyslexia) and the frustration of growing up Latino in an English-only American school in the 1940s. Despite teachers who beat him because he could not speak English, Villaseñor clung to his dream of one day becoming a writer. He is now considered one of the premier writers of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times bestseller with more than 11 million copies sold! When 4-year-old Colton Burpo emerges from life-saving surgery with remarkable stories of his visit to heaven, his family doesn’t know what to believe. Heaven is For Real details what Colton saw and his family’s journey towards accepting their young son had visited the afterlife. “Do you remember the hospital, Colton?” Sonja said. “Yes, mommy, I remember,” he said. “That’s where the angels sang to me.” Colton told his parents he left his body during an emergency surgery–and proved that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing in another part of the hospital during his operation. He talked of visiting heaven and described events that happened before he was born and how he spoke with family members he’d never met. Colton also astonished his parents with descriptions and obscure details about heaven that matched the Bible exactly, even though he had not yet learned to read. With disarming innocence and the plainspoken boldness of a child, Colton recounts his visit to heaven, describing: Meeting long-departed family members Jesus, the angels, how “really, really big” God is, and how much God loves us How Jesus called Todd, Colton’s father, to be a pastor The Battle of Armageddon Retold by his father, but using Colton’s uniquely simple words, Heaven Is for Real offers a glimpse of the world that awaits us, where as Colton says, “Nobody is old and nobody wears glasses.” Heaven Is for Real will forever change the way you think of eternity, offering the chance to see, and believe, like a child. Praise for Heaven is for Real: “A beautifully written glimpse into heaven that will encourage those who doubt and thrill those who believe.” —Ron Hall, coauthor of Same Kind of Different as Me
