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.

Heaven!… Boring?
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99Eternal life-is it a dream come true or an ominous threat? For those who worry that floating on clouds and playing harps sounds incredibly dull, this book offers a unique, engaging, and compelling perspective on heaven. Heaven! Boring? departs from typical explorations of Heaven to inspect the concept of life-ever-after from fresh vantage points. Author Greg Thomas, MD brings history, biology, cosmology, philosophy, and life experience, together with whimsical and relevant anecdotes to stimulate the intellect while simultaneously entertaining. Examine how modern science sheds light on the relationship between the temporal and the eternal, and how this can actually deepen our appreciation for the biblical promise of eternal life. Explore how our present sensory experiences both reveal and conceal the eternal. Most importantly, Thomas offers reflections on how the gospel promise of eternal life is indeed good news! The promise of eternal life is not a sentimental notion or wishful thinking; it is serious business. This book is for everyone who has ever asked, Will I get bored in Heaven?
