In "Glimpses of Home" (published by CrossBooks), a new memoir from Rebecca Nordlander, readers are invited into the lives of ordinary people living ordinary lives in a Baptist preacher's home.

Nordlander takes readers through her memories, focusing on how God's grace played an integral role throughout her upbringing. The second of five children in a loving family, Nordlander gives readers a glimpse of her father's dedication to his role as a father and as a pastor, providing insight into military, city and farm life. "Glimpses of Home" combines Nordlander's life journey and childhood anecdotes with the unique combination of insightful spiritual applications and scripture passages.

An endorsement from Senior Pastor Paul Monroe, Capital City Baptist Church, Columbia, South Carolina:

"Beyond her servant's heart, the thing I admire most about Rebecca is her love for the Lord and her family. I think the many years of wisdom are spelled out in this book that would be beneficial for any leader or layman to benefit from. Read it and learn from someone who has done life right with Christ at the center and a desire to please the Lord."

Nordlander hopes readers find inspirational gems in her family's story. "Children need to know the importance and value of living in a godly home with two loving parents," she says. "If they weren't raised in one, it is not too late to allow Christ to make their home a better place for their children."
