SOME BOOKS ARE LIFE-CHANGING! THIS ONE WILL STICK WITH YOU! "A very compelling story. It is very inspiring to read." "An amazing book. It has everything. Heartbreak and sorrow, joy and peace. An absolutely incredible story of faith." George Müller didn’t grow up a God-fearing, Christian man trusting God day by day again and again. In fact, his beginnings were that of misdemeanors and debauchery. Following the death of his mother when George was just a young boy, his apathetic father all but gave up on him. It wasn’t until his best friend and partner-in-crime became a Christian that everything changed. AN INSPIRATIONAL CHRISTIAN FICTION BOOK “Let the Children Come” is an inspirational Christian fiction book that follows the historical account of the evangelist who saved the lives of thousands of orphans and offered them a safe haven, education, and a relationship with Christ in an orphanage built by faith. But his life was not without pain, suffering, and loss. Despite it all, George remained a man of unwavering, profound faith, imbued with the confidence of the Lord to carry out His will. It is a tale of laughter, tears, miracles, and meaning and as one reader said, it made me cry. George Müller touched the lives of millions, and his story is one history will not soon forget. RELIGIOUS FICTION NOVEL This Christian fiction historical romance novel showcases Tom Fay’s artful, creative retelling of the powerful story of George Müller by launching readers into a modern world rife with sin, faith, prayer, orphan children romance between a man and his wife. Through it all, God saw fit to raise up a man to do His will and to leave a lasting memory for the future generations to learn from. Those who love religious fiction novels for women will be moved by this incredible story based on real life. 
It is not enough to have faith amidst the rainbow; you must also cling to it amidst the hurricane.

Hard Times and a Shaken Faith?  Turbulent times require extraordinary faith.  Or better yet, turbulent times require the faith that Jesus walked and talked for three years of public ministry.  Jesus talked about a sower, a king, a slave, and a leper, yet most of us have never seen one of them. But those were the situations that people of his day understood.  The author, Tom Fay, looks at the financial and home foreclosure crisis and uses it to describe the same faith that Jesus taught. So whatever your personal crisis is today, there is an answer in the faith that Jesus taught. Whether your crisis is about your health, a relationship, money, or whatever life has brought you, Jesus would tell you to have faith. This book is about that faith.   Is Faith Really Relevant for My Problems? Jesus talked about the faith of a mustard seed to move a mountain into the sea.  So surely our faith today should be able to move a mountain of debt.  Can God pay your mortgage?  Will the bank accept your "faith" for payment?  Mr. Fay shows both biblically and from experience that yes, faith does make mortgage payments.  Not a "Feel Good" Book   This is not a "feel good" book that you will read and enjoy.  It is a hard-hitting study of what the genuine Christian faith is all about.  The author looks at faith as a verb and not a noun.  Faith requires an action on our part - not to be confused though with "good works" - and it produces an action on God's part.    Finally an Author Who Has Been There! Tom Fay shares the pains, worry and doubt that confronts most of us when embarking on a life of faith.  But he doesn't share it in a sterile laboratory, but in real life.  He has been though it and survived.    But What If This Book Could Change Your Life! And after having gone through great struggles of faith we find that we have an "anchor" that holds us during the next and larger crisis.  The author explains what that anchor might look like and what it can do as a life altering event.

New from Bradt is the first-ever, standalone English-language guide to Hokkaido, Japan's second-largest island and northernmost prefecture. Home to under 5% of the country's population, this is a land of vast, wild expanses which demands exploration at any time of year - and feels a world away from Tokyo. Penned by an outdoors-loving travel writer resident in Japan, Bradt's Hokkaido delves far deeper into this frontier land than country-wide guidebooks can possibly do. Author Tom Fay provides detailed coverage of the island's history, unique wildlife, local food, the Ainu (indigenous people), outdoor activities, skiing logistics, hiking courses and the practicalities of visiting in winter, when deep snow carpets the ground and the sea turns to ice.Hokkaido's varied landscapes include remote mountain ranges, fertile lowland plains, sweeping forests and enormous wetlands home to rare birds and other wildlife. Even for the Japanese, Hokkaido has a somewhat wild and exotic aura - place names have distinct Ainu origins and the capital Sapporo is closer to Russia's Vladivostok than to Tokyo; while the Siberia-influenced climate and wide open spaces are unlike anything found in the rest of Japan.Hokkaido's mild summers are ideal for sightseeing, cycling, camping and hiking. Why not climb the island's highest mountain in Daisetsuzan National Park - an untouched wilderness of simmering volcanoes and stunning nature - or marvel at colourful fields of flowers around Furano and Biei? In winter, you can go to snow festivals, walk on sea ice (or board an icebreaker) to explore the Sea of Okhotsk, watch flocks of sea eagles or track brown bears in Shiretoko National Park, or head to popular ski resorts such as Niseko where the huge dumps of perfect powder snow attract skiers and snowboarders from around the world. Throw in hot springs (and thus ryokan hot-spring inns), active volcanoes, speciality seafood and quirky foodstuffs such as chocolate-covered crisps, excellent transport links and renowned Japanese hospitality, and Hokkaido is a thrilling and varied off-the-beaten-path travel destination, to which Bradt's Hokkaido guidebook is instantly the essential companion.

Guidebook to the magnificent Japan Alps, which stretch across the middle of the main island of Honshu, and iconic Mount Fuji. The guide describes nine day-walks and thirteen treks of 2-8 days covering the North, Central and South Alps, as well as the four main routes up Mount Fuji - Japan's highest mountain at 3776m - and a further route on neighbouring Mount Kurodake. The routes visit many of the region's key summits, including several over 3000m. They are graded according to difficulty, although several entail steep ascents and difficult terrain and a few include scrambling and exposure, calling for a sure foot and a good head for heights. Comprehensive step-by-step route descriptions are accompanied by clear mapping. The Japan Alps and Mount Fuji boast a well-developed walking infrastructure, and the routes make use of the many mountain huts and campgrounds, full details of which are given in the guide. Some also include the opportunity to visit a traditional hot-spring bath for a refreshing soak after your hike. You will find all the information you will need to plan a successful walking or trekking holiday, with a wealth of advice on travel, bases, accommodation and facilities. There are additional notes on plants and wildlife, the history of hiking in Japan and safety in the mountains, as well as full mountain-hut listings and a helpful glossary. Inspirational colour photography completes the package, offering a taste of the breathtaking mountain vistas to whet your appetite.
