Fighting For My Life
$18.99
A woman with a 91 percent chance of contracting Alzheimer’s disease, a leading neurologist and Alzheimer’s expert, and their mission to tackle one of the scariest illnesses of our day. Now available in trade paper.
Jamie Tyrone was forty-nine years old when she learned she had a genetic predisposition toward Alzheimer’s disease. In fact, her genes translated to a 91 percent chance that she would contract the disease during her lifetime.
Yes, 91 percent. Almost a guarantee.
As a former nurse, and with her family’s history of suffering from Alzheimer’s, Jamie knew what she was up against. But she decided to take action rather than concede defeat. She started by founding B.A.B.E.S (Beating Alzheimer’s By Embracing Science) to raise money and awareness in the search for a cure. Energized by that community, Jamie teamed up with renowned neurologist Dr. Marwan Sabbagh to write Fighting for My Life as a practical, helpful guide for any person impacted by the shadow of Alzheimer’s Disease.
In addition to Jamie’s inspiring story, Fighting for My Life includes cutting-edge medical guidance from Dr. Sabbagh about the true nature of Alzheimer’s, the risks involved, and daily steps you can take to protect yourself against the disease. Finally, both Jamie and Dr. Sabbagh offer an honest look at the pros, cons, and possible dangers of genetic testing.

Surprised By Hope
$15.99For years Christians have been asking, “If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?” It turns out Christians have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven.
One of today’s premier Bible scholars and award-winning author N.T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian’s future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright shows that Christianity’s most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. First, he provides a magisterial defense of a literal resurrection of Jesus himself. This became the cornerstone for the Christian community’s hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Next Wright explores our expectation of “new heavens and new earth,” showing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the “second coming” of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise.
Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation – and if this has already begun in Jesus’s resurrection – the church cannot stop at “saving souls” but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God’s kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life.
Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but, before it.
