How can you love God when you can't see or hear Him? That was the question asked by a little girl many years ago when she was told by a godly teacher that she was to love God with all her heart and soul. This book is a collection of stories, written and compiled over the past 12 years, which tells how God answered that question throughout her life. In a myriad of different ways God intersected Marianne's life with His presence and His truth, and began to reveal His great love for her.

Frederick Jackson Turner, American historian during the early twentieth century, based at the University of Wisconsin-Madison until 1910, and then at Harvard University.

This beautifully written biography charts the life of Dr. Cynthia J. MacKay, a wife, a mother, a surgeon, and a lifelong activist campaigning against the cruel, painful, damaging invasive corrective eye surgery LASIK. It is written with modesty. It is engaging, witty, and sometimes painful to listen to as it describes the discrimination, smear campaigns, and brutal conduct of her peers and others who have tried to ruin her in their own act of self-preservation. Cynthia battles through it all, with dignity, determination, and an abundance of wit, humor and humility.

Most educators are remembered in passing – their legacies often confined to classroom walls and fleeting school years.

I Didn’t Sign Up For This: One Classroom Teacher’s Journey Through Emotional Fatigue to Personal Empowerment is an intimate look at how today’s teachers feel and what they can do to reclaim their confidence and joy to be the teachers they were always meant to be. Integrating self-discovery and personal experiences from nearly two decades of teaching high school English, author Diane Manser shares her realization that teaching is an emotional profession that needs to be viewed as such.

Mrs. Korthaus has always been ahead of her time—an educator who inspired her students to dream bigger, think deeper, and live boldly. For decades, she led an English classroom with caring and conviction, but it’s not until she’s retired, and then fighting cancer, that she begins to share her story: long ago marching with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., building a corporate career, and overcoming heartbreak before “accidentally” becoming a teacher and forever shaping the lives of countless young adults—including bestselling author Kristine Gasbarre.

In classrooms across the country, teachers demonstrate resilience and ingenuity as they dedicate their lives to improving those of future generations.
