Image
        God Made Me from Spare Parts: Modern Parables for Old Souls God Made Me from Spare Parts  is a collection of whimsical, modern parables that unfold between dream and reality—where spiritual fiction meets emotional truth, and answers rarely arrive as expected.  A troubled narrator calls out to God for guidance and meets a disarmingly human deity who reframes mortality, self-worth, and distress with warmth and unexpected humor. A God who laughs. A God who crashed his plane when he was young. A God who doesn’t fix everything, but sits beside you.

With touching stories and striking illustrations, the book invites readers to pause, reflect, and see their own lives with refreshed compassion and clarity. Ideal for spiritual seekers, contemplative readers, and anyone looking fo...

Conversations with Paul

Image
      Conversations with Paul What happens when a woman who trusts science, logic and reason meets a man whose life was defined by faith? Find out when you read Conversations With Paul. Professor Elizabeth Carpenter is confident, disciplined and firmly grounded in what she can measure and explain. God, in her view, is a question that science should be able to answer, but then she meets Paul—not a metaphor, not a dream, but the Apostle Paul, sent across time for a promise she never expected. Conversations With Paul is a powerful, personal encounter between a modern skeptic and one of history’s most persuasive voices of faith. It’s not a sermon, it’s a dialogue; honest, challenging and quietly transformative. As Beth walks her own modern Damascus Road, she begins to see that faith doesn’t silence reason—it deepens it—and that the answers she finds might be much more than she ever asked for.

TOO AUTHENTIC: 25 Years of Not Fitting In

Image
      TOO AUTHENTIC: 25 Years of Not Fitting In This memoir follows 25 years of dancing in spaces that wanted me smaller—and my refusal to shrink. What's inside: Chapter 1: Go-Go Dancing - Stories from village discos and city clubs where creativity was treated like rebellion. From the DJ who couldn't handle a woman who initiated, to the boss who wanted decoration instead of artistry, to discovering that "too sexual" really meant "too free." Chapter 2: Belly Dance - Stories from the world of traditional belly dance, where innovation was viewed as vandalism. Teachers who needed obedience, schools that rejected fusion, and the realization that authentic expression threatens those who police tradition. Chapter 3: Walked Away - Five turning points, including Slovenia's Got Talent (where the national TV audience humiliated me for having body hair), confronting a teacher who wanted devotion over sovereignty, and the moment I stopped trying to fit into spac...
