Summary

John Owen's 'Mortification of Sin' is a seminal work in Christian literature, providing readers with a profound exploration of the concept of battling sin through self-discipline and spiritual growth. Written in the 17th century, Owen's work is characterized by its intense focus on the internal struggle against sin, offering practical advice on how individuals can overcome their sinful impulses. Drawing from biblical teachings and theological insights, Owen presents a detailed roadmap for readers seeking to achieve spiritual purity and moral transformation. His eloquent prose and deep theological knowledge make this book a timeless classic in the realm of Christian literature. John Owen, a prominent English theologian and academic, was known for his strong Puritan beliefs and commitment to promoting religious reform. His personal struggles with sin and dedication to spiritual growth inspired him to write 'Mortification of Sin,' reflecting his desire to help others on their own spiritual journey. I highly recommend this book to readers interested in delving into the complexities of sin, spiritual warfare, and personal transformation within a Christian context.

    Lauren Bailey may be a romantic at heart, but after a decade of matchmaking schemes gone wrong, there's only one match she's committed to now--the one that will make her a mother. Lauren is a dedicated first-grade teacher in Idaho, and her love for children has led her to the path of international adoption. To satisfy her adoption agency's requirements, she gladly agreed to remain single for the foreseeable future; however, just as her long wait comes to an end, Lauren is blindsided by a complication she never saw coming: Joshua Avery. 
     
    Joshua may be a substitute teacher by day, but Lauren finds his passion for creating educational technology as fascinating as his antics in the classroom. Though she does her best to downplay the undeniable connection between them, his relentless pursuit of her heart puts her commitment to stay unattached to the test and causes her once-firm conviction to waver. 
     
    With an impossible decision looming, Lauren might very well find herself choosing between the two deepest desires of her heart . . . even if saying yes to one means letting go of the other.
