What Women Want
(with Rebecca Price)

Written with Lisa's good friend, Rebecca Price, What Women Want is an excellent "soft Bible study," (meaning easy access--anyone can do). Rebecca and Lisa hope that WWW will help women begin an honest dialogue with God about where he is leading them and what he wants them to learn, how he wants them to grow. Because in the end, answering these questions will aid women in finding out why they are craving more, and how only God can fully satisfy.

The Busy Mom's Devotional

Think it's impossible to have a spiritual life AND manage family life? There are many days that plainly feel like an exercise of survival. But living a life of devotion means seeing Christ in everything--from changing a diaper to a husband's tender kiss. Join Lisa for a year of "been there" devotions--readings from a mom who lives like you do, in the trenches, but strives to see Jesus beside her, through it all. Do just one devotional a day (or a week!), and you'll begin to see life with more depth and clairty than ever before.

The Begotten
(Book one of The Gifted series)

2007 Christy Award Finalist!


What if the Medieval Church had the lost letters of Paul, holding them away from the populace because they expounded on spiritual gifts? What would happen if God brought together people with extraordinary spiritual gifts during the fourteenth century? How would they battle the twin dangers of evil and the Inquisition? How would their decisions, good and bad, help shape the future Body of Christ? And what if the people that did the greatest good in the battle had more subtle spiritual gifts than those they supported and followed?

The year is 1339 and God calls to his beloved until they rise from their slumber. Yet at the same time, Evil also walks the Earth, hunting God's chosen ones. Can the Gifted rally together and avoid both the known dangers that hunt them as well as those in the shadows? The future of the Christian Church, as well as humankind, rests on their ability to rely on what God had laid in their hearts, minds and souls. Will they discover it in time?
