Few have experienced the sorrow of Don and Karen Clifford with the death of three small children at different times as well as two miscarriages. Most marriages do not survive such tragic events. Don and Karen are testimony to the biblical truth that God's grace is sufficient in the darkest hours of life. They are a joy filled couple faithfully serving the Lord. Their faith and faithfulness are an inspiration to others. When I read their story it became the seed for a series of messages on THE SUFFICIENT GRACE OF GOD. Their story will challenge you to overcome the difficulties in your life by trusting in God's sufficient grace. Dr. David Sheppard, Senior Pastor First Baptist Church St Charles, Mo. As I read "Grace Enough For Three," I was totally captivated, reading deep into the night and early mornings. "Grace" reads almost like fiction - but it most certainly isn't fiction. Don and Karen lived every moment of this fascinating and riveting story. In their lives, through their pain and oft times lack of understanding, they learned much about God's wonderful love and grace. Our thanks to Don and Karen for allowing us to be a part of their experience, for a look at how God can work in mysterious but marvelous ways in the lives of his children. Dr. M. Dale Allen Professor of Bible Missouri Baptist University.

Wisdom Betrayed is a compelling novel which delves behind the scenes into the backstories of the characters at the center of the David and Bathsheba saga. Utilizing biblical accounts and weaving them throughout the narrative, the author expands upon Scripture to get into the hearts and minds of David, Bathsheba and other important characters in the complete story. Despite the popularity of the saga, most people do not realize there is a fascinating mystery in this story, a mystery that we must solve before we can see the full picture of what happened and why. The clues are there in obscure passages, waiting to be discovered and interpreted. The book takes readers along for a ride through turbulent events that unfold in this intersection of lives as a result of one man's decisions; events that end in tragedy for some and redemption for others. Here's a hint: David knew Bathsheba's family before he summoned her to his bed. Her grandfather was David's personal counselor and advisor. His name? Ahithophel the Gilonite. The man behind the throne. If you are ready to experience this classic story as never before, this book is for you. Head back in history to see what happens when wisdom is betrayed.
