Eugenia Price embodies this Spirit in words that make The Acts a joyous revelation. Something extraordinary happened to the men and women in this New Testament book, ending their grief and filling them with sudden courage. From the moment they poured into the streets on Pentecost to the time of Paul’s last words from prison, Jesus energized these early Christians from within. Their lives reveal the triumphant story of how the church began to “happen”.

In these chaotic times, when many people who claim to be Christian are searching for relevance in the secular to justify their worldly aspirations, much of the Christian heritage is being ignored or discarded. But Miss Eugenia Price turns back time for a moment, and in these early Victorian lyrics, she finds surprisingly sound, contemporary meaning that stands boldly above the ideas of today's so-called radical thinkers.

Here is a bold thinker who can write, a committed Christian who can light up experiences common to us all in a language literate and understandable. As her readers and listeners have come to expect, she does not hesitate to share a viewpoint that has rejected the hot-house conditioning and automatic answers that produce impotent disciples. Rather, she invites us to take a bold look at the pretensions that have been substituted for reality, the doctrinal escapes too long preferred to God himself.

According to Eugenia Price, the emotionally healthy person is the one who is focused outside of the self and whose attention is directed toward God and other people. In Leave Yourself Alone, she explores specific areas of life - work, prayer, conversation, relationships - where people can and should “leave themselves alone”.

In The Unique World of Women, Eugenia Price creates unforgettable, intimate portraits of Keturah, Mary of Jerusalem, and other women from the Bible and relates their troubles to the dilemmas women face today. Originally published to great acclaim in 1969, The Unique World of Women is filled with Eugenia Price’s sage advice on how 20th-century women can learn from the trials and tribulations suffered by the women of the Bible.

God is not mysterious, or unknowable, or far away according to Eugenia Price. In this encouraging book, she helps listeners discover the loving Savior who came to earth to reach people. The one who makes it possible to come closer to him.

One of the most infamous American freethinkers in his day, Elihu Palmer has been largely forgotten. No cache of his personal papers exists, and his book has been long out of print. Yet his story merits telling, Kirsten Fischer argues, and not only for the dramatic account of a man who lost his eyesight before the age of 30 and still became a book author, newspaper editor, and itinerant public speaker.

In Starting Strong, mentoring experts Lois J. Zachary and Lory A. Fischler weave a compelling tale that exemplifies the concepts, highlights the dynamics, and outlines the issues involved in mentoring relationships. The authors use the form of a fable to tell the story of a budding mentoring relationship filled with possibilities, problems, and triumphs.
