There is a very real battle going on for our hearts. If we step back and look at each area of our lives, we have numerous opportunities every day to take up an offense about something or someone. Giving in to offense rather than taking the low road of humility leads to walking in pride. Choosing not to be offended and walk in forgiveness is the way of Christ and the Cross.

I heard a story.....
I heard a story from someone, and it wasn't your typical story. This person had an experience not many of us would ever care to undergo. Many people may not believe the story, but that's ok. You see, this individual was, like the Apostle Paul, caught up in a vision...whether in the body or not, this individual is not sure, except for the fact that there were physical signs that it was an "in the body" sort of experience. It's not so much what happened as where it happened....Hell.
Yes, hell is a real place, according to this individual. Why am I writing about this on my book blog? Because this individual reported that the only sin that people are in hell for is:

UNFORGIVENESS
Yes, you read that correctly. It makes sense...those who do not know Jesus as Lord and Savior do not know the gift of forgiveness. To know the FORGIVER is to know freedom and forgiveness.
Walking Forward - Discoveries in Freedom and Forgiveness is an easy-to-read encapsulation of stories that focus on walking in the gifts of forgiveness and freedom. Get your copy today HERE, or e-mail me at tmhunarden@gmail.com for your $11.00 signed copy, which includes shipping.

High School Reunion
Last weekend, I was blessed to be able to attend my 30-year high school reunion. Wow, am I really that old? As I was preparing, I sensed the Lord prompting me to bring a box of my books, Walking Forward - Discoveries in Freedom and Forgiveness to the reunion to give away to my former classmates.
So I did....indeed, it felt strange to hear the comments, "Wow, you wrote a book, Arden?" And it was even more uncomfortable to hear, "You need to autograph my copy."
I want to thank all of my classmates who took copies and are reading them now. You have no idea how much it means to me that you showed that kind of interest. I heard back from one classmate who shared this:
"Arden, I was flying back to San Francisco reading your book and the woman sitting next to me was craning to read it. I gave her your contact information so she can get her own copy. I also want to know where I can get more copies as I can think of a couple of people I'd like to share this with."
Encouraging does not even begin to capture what this person's comments to me did for my heart. So, for all you readers out there who are looking for a good read, here is a LINK to Amazon.com and here is a LINK for copies at Barnes and Noble.com, including a NOOK version. Finally, HERE IT IS on Xulon Press, through whom I self-published.
You can get copies from me as well...for a discounted price and a signed copy. E-mail me at tmhunarden@gmail.com to order copies from me.
Blessings on you as you read!

Reading....
I must apologize for not posting here in nearly 2 months! Wow, time flies when things are on the move, like me!
Just yesterday, a friend of mine was praying for me and Paul. She said in her prayer that she feels like the Lord wants us to write a book together, that we have stories to tell that will impact people. We both smiled as others have said the same thing! After she prayed, I asked her if she had a copy of my book, Walking Forward - Discoveries in Freedom and Forgiveness to which she replied, "No, but I'd love to read it!"
I asked her this because it's a book of stories that has had an impact on a number of people's lives! Stories include my adventures hiking in Austria with one of my best friends, tubing down a hurricane water swollen river in VA, watching trees get pruned, receiving a speeding ticket, and the list goes on! In all of them, I relate how the Lord spoke to me about His freedom, His forgiveness and the necessity of learning His heart.
Here are a number of links you can follow to get your copy or copies today.
From Amazon which also offers a Kindle version.
From Barnes and Noble where you can also purchase my second book, The Senders.
From Xulon Press through whom I self-published.
By the way, THANK YOU to those of you who have bought the book! I am deeply thankful for your support of this self-publishing effort!

Book endorsements
I'm so very thankful for friends who have endorsed my books, Walking Forward - Discoveries in Freedom and Forgiveness and The Senders.
“Arden is passionate in all she does. She has a heart for missionaries and those who support them. "The Senders" specifically recognizes and applauds this behind the scenes group of people that make it possible for missionaries to do what God has called them to do. She also has a longing to see the broken healed. Her first book "Walking Forward" is a helpful tool for those individuals to begin that process of healing. She is a blessing to us all.”
Arden is a detailed, yet concise writer who displays the importance of the Body of Christ coming together as a whole to not only be sent but also to send in her book titled, "The Senders." She captivates the readers eye through her personal experiences and her desire to include various perspectives of those who have sent out missionaries. I highly recommend Arden's book titled, "The Senders". I believe this is the beginning of a new wave of missions on the rise that will cause the Church to rise to another level of involvement of God's redemptive plan for all mankind to know HIM and make HIM known.”
Arden is a remarkable woman who has labored as a teacher in the U.S. and Europe, and has tremendous insight into the application of gospel principles to modern living. Her book The Senders reflects a side of modern missions rarely studied - the sacrificial and committed support that is required to send a missionary abroad, and a look at the people who provide that support - their motivations, their character, and their hopes for making the world a better place.”
“I am writing on behalf of Arden Czaszewicz to highly endorse her character, her work and her two books, "Walking Forward-Discoveries in Freedom and Forgiveness" and "The Senders". Sincerely, Mary Kay Ohaneson-Laughton”
“I came to know Arden on a trip to Kansas City. As two professionals passionate about education, we hit it off immediately. I have read her books and feel they are valuable to Christian audiences. I highly recommend both books.”
“Arden is a brilliant author. When she teaches you a lesson you remember it when the conversation is through. She's a person after God's own heart and the anointing the she has on her life will have an impact on your own.”
“Arden is a gifted writer and storyteller. Her two books are a gem for those who want to grow in their faith. I have enjoyed reading them both and look forward to her next effort. She is an inspiration and has much to teach all of us!”

Endorsement for my book, The Senders
My dear sister in the Lord, and friend, Linda Valen of Master Potter Ministries, has written a wonderful endorsement of my book, The Senders. Read it below:
The Senders
By Arden Czaszewicz
Endorsement by Linda Valen
The Senders is a unique approach to missions that peers into the hearts and minds of those who pray and give to missionaries! We tend to focus on the heroes who have left everything to live in a different culture, walk by faith, and are called to preach the Gospel. But who thinks about the often unsung heroes behind the scenes who help to send missionaries through their financial gifts and prayers? What motivates them to give and why and what do they value as The Senders? This is a must read book for anyone raising finances and prayer support to do missions work! It reveals many keys that are shared through the eyes of those who help to make mission work possible! Some of you may become The Senders after reading this book because your heart has been impacted and challenged. It is well worth your time to read this engaging book to find out what makes these valuable partners do what they do and why!
