Hardback. Zustand: Good. From beloved author Alyson Gerber comes another realistic contemporary novel perfect for fans of Judy Blume. Sarah loves basketball more than anything. Crushing it on the court makes her feel like she matters. And it's the only thing that helps her ignore how much it hurts when her mom forgets to feed her. But lately Sarah can't even play basketball right. She's slower now and missing shots she should be able to make. Her body doesn't feel like it's her own anymore. She's worried that changing herself back to how she used to be is the only way she can take control over what's happening. When Sarah's crush asks her to be partners in a cooking competition, she feels pulled in a million directions. She'll have to dig deep to stand up for what she needs at home, be honest with her best friends, and accept that she doesn't need to change to feel good about herself. Booklist described Gerber's novels in starred reviews as both "highly empathetic" and "truly inspiring."

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The Bible is filled with miracles. but what is God trying to show us? A miracle is an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs. In other words, God shows up in the lives of real people. He meets us in our moment of need. He comes close. Most of us have wrestled with these questions: Is God close to me? Does He see what I'm going through? Will He show up with His miracle power when I need Him most? No one performed miracles like Jesus. He restored sight to the blind, helped the lame walk, calmed the seas, and multiplied one boy's lunch to feed thousands. And every time He performed one of these miracles, He didn't just meet the person's needs, He helped them get closer to God. I spent a couple weeks visiting the places where many of these things happened to get a better understanding of how these miracles help us clearly see the nature and character of God. I want to invite you to go on a journey with Jesus-from His life to yours. I believe the Bible will come alive to you like never before and you will truly be closer to Jesus. And the closer we get, the more we realize He is better than we imagined. &nbsp.…
