What if you could communicate with an unborn child? In "Letters to Schnicklefritz", Tony Woods does just that in 27 short chapters, each corresponding to 27 weeks of a child's development in the womb. With each letter comes a fresh understanding of the miracle that is taking place, and how each week brings new reminders of God's Hand at work. This is much more than the story of one life from conception. Schnicklefritz is in fact a part of every baby that was ever born; and if you look close enough you might even see yourself.

Autobiography following a couple who based their marriage on a commitment to follow God's call, wherever it may lead. That decision took them through 40 years in seven countries and the death of their firstborn son. Through tremendous loss and unspeakable blessing, they look back on the tapestry that is their lives, fashioned by the Master Weaver.

In the final months before Japan's defeat in World War II, all of her citizens were being asked to make the supreme sacrifice for the sake of the Homeland. 15-year-old Naoki answered the call, enlisting in the Naval Air Force for training as a Kamikaze pilot. When Japan's supply of planes was exhausted, he was transferred to the "Kaiten" project, preparing volunteers to pilot torpedoes on suicide missions. Alternatively, he was a given a backpack of explosives and told to run under an oncoming Allied tank. One week before he was to be given his first and only assignment, however, the war ended, leaving the young man with a new future and the opportunity for a new kind of sacrifice. God intervened in Naoki's life, taking him from commitment to an Empire to a lifetime calling to a Kingdom. Sacrificed is the story of that calling and of the remarkable man destined to be a blessing for a whole generation.
