God's Ex-Wife is a "novoir" (part novel/part memoir) in which anecdotes from both authors' lives are woven into a work of fiction, though every character in the story was inspired (at least in part) by an actual person who left an impact on David, Jessica, or both. We never stop learning, and everyone who enters our life is a teacher of sorts (though life itself is the ultimate teacher!) God's Ex-Wife, despite the name, is not about religion; It's about choice, identity, love, education, friendship, and HOPE. It has never been harder to be young in America, especially as a misfit. There is a whole country between New York and Los Angeles, and much of that region is little more than ""The MoFN"" (Middle of F**king Nowhere). This book is offered as a beacon to the young people in those places who-- because of their sexuality, their race, or merely their independent spirit -- have never ""fit in."" We see you. We appreciate you. And we do NOT want you change. But we do want you to leave. You want it too, and we want to empower you to do that. The MoFN (Middle of F**king Nowhere) is no kind of place for a big, Jewish girl with strange clothes, or her only friend: a gay boy with even stranger clothes. But for now that's exactly where Debbie and Phil are stuck. Growing up in the 90's in a cold New England town with nothing to do, no exposure to the world beyond, or experience with people of color (who will eventually play a huge role in their lives), and bullied on a daily basis, they turn to their love of writing and performing , initially as an escape from their monotone misery, and an antidote to their boredom. It is only through the efforts of Mrs. Rosen, Debbie's eccentric and sophisticated mentor, that they realize how far their talents might actually take them. But is there more to Debbie's weirdness than just punk rock and black nail polish? Long since divorced from religion, she is not exactly big on faith. So how does Debbie know what she knows? She can't even answer that herself.

“Fans of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency may have a new hero: Detective Inspector Darko Dawson.”—The Wall Street Journal Introducing Detective Inspector Darko Dawson: dedicated family man, rebel in the office, ace in the field—and one of the most appealing sleuths to come along in years. When we first meet Dawson, he’s been ordered by his cantankerous boss to leave behind his loving wife and young son in Ghana’s capital city to lead a murder investigation: In a shady grove outside the small town of Ketanu, a young woman—a promising medical student—has been found dead under suspicious circumstances. Dawson is fluent in Ketanu’s indigenous language, so he’s the right man for the job, but the local police are less than thrilled with an outsider’s interference. For Dawson, this sleepy corner of Ghana is rife with emotional land mines: an estranged relationship with the family he left behind twenty-five years earlier and the painful memory of his own mother’s inexplicable disappearance. Armed with remarkable insight and a healthy dose of skepticism, Dawson soon finds his cosmopolitan sensibilities clashing with age-old customs, including a disturbing practice in which teenage girls are offered to fetish priests as trokosi, or Wives of the Gods. Delving deeper into the student’s haunting death, Dawson will uncover long-buried secrets that, to his surprise, hit much too close to home. Praise for Wife of the Gods “An absolute gem . . . mystery fans have an important new voice to savor.”—Los Angeles Times “Full of suspense, humor and plot twists . . . Quartey’s remarkable characters give the reader a worthy whodunit.”—Ebony “[A] winning debut . . . Dawson is a wonderful creation, a man as rich with contradictions as the Ghana Quartey so delightfully evokes.”—Publishers Weekly “Engrossing . . . [Quartey] renders a compelling cast of characters. . . . Fans of McCall Smith’s No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency will relish the opportunity to discover yet another intriguing area of Africa.”—Booklist (starred review)

“This book walks each of us through the reality checks we need in order to have the marriage we want!” —Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher and best-selling author of For Women Only In today’s workplace, women are often rewarded for having type A personalities: driven, demanding, ambitious, and strong. Yet when it comes to their marriages, those same traits can backfire. After all, no one goes into marriage hoping for a promotion. What is a wife to do? April Cassidy knows this struggle firsthand. She thought she was a great Christian wife and begged God to make her passive husband into a more loving, involved, godly leader. Instead, God opened her eyes to changes that she needed to make, such as laying down her desire for control and offering genuine, unconditional respect—not just love—to her husband. Cassidy’s conclusions may be as startling to readers as they were to her, but The Peaceful Wife shares how she and many others have learned to reorient their lives to biblical commands—resulting in healthier, happier marriages. In the end, you’ll find The Peaceful Wife a powerful path to God’s design for women to live in full submission to Christ as Lord.
