–Paula Bjornn, Registered Nurse
It was dusk as my husband and I entered the small cemetery to place flowers on the three graves-Jonathan, our firstborn son who died at eight months from a rare pneumonia; Michael, our violinist son who left us at age sixteen due to pancreatic cancer; and Seb, a loving son who trained hawks and suffered blindness and neurodegeneration after thirty years of immunodeficiency. As the sun set with crimson colors. I placed bright summer flowers on each grave. ‘Help me to do what I should do with my life,’ I said to my sons. It was clear what my path should be. I could not let their lives be lost in vain! I should write stories of struggle, love, and faith. “They are doing work now in heavenly spheres, and I must do mine while I still have time!” I said to myself. It all seemed so clear.
This powerful memoir describing Colleen Openshaw’s frequent encounters with illness and death will convey important insights when we experience these unwanted sorrows in our own lives. Losing her parents to cancer and old age, a sister in a car accident, her husband to organ failure and Alzheimer’s, as well as her three precious sons to hyper-IgM Syndrome-has given Colleen unusual understanding in facing end-of-life issues. Relying on her faith in God as well as her own grit and determination, her experience can give us a unique comprehension of how to confront these inevitable trials common to all mankind.

Happy Holy & Horny: Marriage and Sex Is A God Idea
Price range: $8.99 through $15.99“We understood what has caused us to fight for 5 years of marriage, after reading HHH our intimacy, sex and relationship with God is no longer the same!”
Ronnie and Desiree.”
“OMG! this book is HOT and Holy at the same time. Excellent!”
Nicholas Bigg Jr.”
Within these pages are true stories that highlight the four areas that can also cause divorce and infidelity: Communication, Money, Sex and Trust. As you read these sometimes very provocative, bedroom language, real life episodes, the common trend that you’ll observe with these dynamic people, is that they honestly love God and want to please Him. This gave them confidence, boldness and an authority that I have read in the Bible, but seldom seen, until now.
I challenge you to take a leap of faith in your marriage, knowing what God has joined no other should destroy. Invite your spouse to join you on this intimate thought-provoking journey.
There are no boundaries in the bedroom.
