Free Books For Your Kindle

A number of free Christian books for the Kindle or Kindle App are available today.  Some of these will only be available today - others for longer periods of time.  Enjoy:

========================

Dallas Willard's "Renovation of the Heart" (http://amzn.to/SK208Z) from NavPress.  Renovation of the Heart explains the common misunderstandings about human nature and the discipleship process by outlining the general pattern of personal spiritual transformation––not as a formula, but as a systematic process.

This bestseller by Dallas Willard explains that as intentional apprentices of Jesus, we are to move deeper into a relationship with God while becoming more like Jesus. In his unique, winning way, Dallas Willard will guide you in discovering your true identity while exploring spiritual growth in a new way.

========================

John Pollock's "The Apostle: A Life of Paul" (http://amzn.to/QTNZ7b) from David C. Cook.  Master storyteller John Pollock makes Paul and his amazing story freshly alive, so that you can know the greatest apostle much as Luke and Timothy did as they traveled with him. As you turn the pages, you'll sense Paul's motives, his aims and priorities; what mattered to him; and what he was willing to die for.

========================

The following books are fictional works  - they are not as exciting to me, but will be satisfying to some:

========================

"Secrets" is the first book in the Michelli Family Series by Kristen Heitzmann. (http://amzn.to/QTP0ft)   Published by Bethany House Publishers, Lance Michelli is on a quest to discover the secrets his grandmother cannot tell. What happened all those years ago, and what is it she so desperately needs him to find? The old villa in Sonoma holds the answers, but it is now owned by a young woman who neither knows nor cares about his mission. But Rese Barret is a force to contend with, and her own impending storm could sweep him up as their sparring creates a fierce and uncomfortable attraction.

========================

Lisa Wingate's "Talk of the Town" is also from Bethany House Publishers.  (http://amzn.to/RxfJVS) A charming tale of small-town Texas with a twist of romance as the producer of a reality show attempts to keep secrets from the locals.

========================

Finally, a favorite title from well-known author Janette Oke.  "When the Heart Calls", again from Bethany House Publishers, is available here:  http://amzn.to/MHy4we.   Nothing in her cultured East Coast upbringing prepared Elizabeth for a teaching position on the Canadian frontier. Yet, despite the constant hardships, she loves the children in her care. Determined to do the best job she can and fighting to survive the harsh land, Elizabeth is surprised to find her heart softening towards a certain member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Book 1 of the bestselling Canadian West series.


========================



One more free Christian fiction book for your Kindle or Kindle app is available this afternoon.  By a weill-known author, Angela Hunt's "Roanoke" is published by Tyndale House:  http://amzn.to/RxkJd7.  In 1587, a fleet of English ships set sail for the Virginia colony. During a storm, one ship became separated from the others and was never seen again. The settlers on board were presumed lost at sea, but there is both historical and legendary evidence that the colonists actually founded the Roanoke colony.

Veteran novelist Hunt ("Theyn Chronicles") reimagines this slice of Colonial history through the eyes of Jocelyn White, a newlywed reluctant to leave her home in England for the wild shores of the New World. White's journey is fraught with danger, but her dependence on God and God's providence carry her safely through. Hunt's engaging historical romance will appeal to fans of B.J. Hoff and Patricia Hickman.
