Dashed to Pieces (A. L. O. E.)
A Tale of Roman Prince Virgilius
Charlotte Maria Tucker (1821 – 1893) was a prolific writer and poet for children and adults, who preferred to write under the pseudonym A. L. O. E. (a Lady of England).

If they walk in the light of the truth, their wealth and property will be forfeited; more importantly, believers who reveal their faith risk not only their lives, but place their spouse and children in harm’s way.
Will a Roman soldier forsake all and take up his cross and follow Jesus? Be prepared to be on the edge of your seat as slaves and generals find themselves on equal footing, hiking treacherous mountain paths in the midst of a catastrophic flood. Salvation may be found in a most unexpected way!

Rescued From Egypt (A. L. O. E.)

Becoming a Titus 2 Woman (Martha Peace)
To an age in which “mentoring” has all but died, Mrs. Peace helps restore this precious practice with a book which is a great service to help women, old and young, practice their part of Paul’s exhortation (Titus 2) to older women to instruct younger women in how to love their husbands and train their children.
As Paul wrote there, “Older women likewise are to teach what is good, that they may encourage the younger women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind being subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be dishonored.” – Titus 2:3-5
Much is said and written today about mentoring. A mentor is a guide, a teacher, a counselor, an advisor; all words that apply to the Titus 2 woman. Becoming a Titus 2 Woman is a tool to train older women to successfully mentor younger women. Within these pages are many examples of how to discipline younger women. It is practical in its approach as it teaches how, by God’s grace, we develop the character that God wants every older woman to have.
