    In MISS BUDGE IN LOVE Daphne Simpkins offers an entertaining collection of insightful and often humorous short stories that feature the endearing Miss Mildred Budge. A retired public school teacher, Miss Budge embarks on a series of slice-of-life adventures that take readers into the intriguing and authentic lives of Southern church women. "What our readers love about Miss Budge is that they all know her personally. In fact, they all are her in one way or another. Daphne's stories are instantly recognizable to those in a church community, and that's where the real humour and real pathos comes from. Daphne is a keen observer of the strange and wonderful subculture of 'the church lady.'" Brett Alan Dewing The Christian Courier (Canada) "Mildred Budge is a forthright, almost larger than life, woman who challenges every reader's faith walk by being transparent about her own. She reminds us that Jesus loves us the way we are but He loves us too much to leave us as we are." Julie Innes EvangelBuy a copy today for yourself or your favorite church lady or teacher who inspired you to become who you are today.

    "Traditions grow up in neighborhoods and churches the way that they do in families. Fountain City, a fictional city in the Deep South, is no different. Their most recent tradition is the Faith Promise campaign that raises money for missions and feeding the hungry. A noble and necessary work, over time, the key to Faith Promise's ongoing and invigorating success is attributed to Mrs. Bopp's Miracle Fudge, a new holiday recipe invented each year by a fudge-making genius to kick-off the Christmas season and the fund-raising campaign. People who have more than a sweet tooth to satisfy line up for her fudge believing that good things happen when you eat it. But better things begin to happen when Mrs. Bopp can suddenly no longer make the famous fudge. The recipes that have become traditions are left behind when the life-energizing force of Love itself takes a greater hold and moves the citizens of Fountain City to taste and see that the power of Christmas itself-its joy and its truth-are far more potent than any man-made recipe or tradition.Want a taste of Christmas now? You can enjoy the real spirit of Christmas with one click of the button. Enjoy Christmas in Fountain City today."--
