We know that many of you have been under great stress due to the pandemic, and some of you have more time than usual at home. In either case, we invite you to enjoy an online video series called “Reading Hope in Trying Times” where we feature some of our author partners, each sharing their thoughts on where we are, discussing how God has helped them through trying times, and sharing some of their books, and books from others, that might be helpful during the challenging times we face.
