Happiness is found in some of the most unexpected places and ways. 

Aurea Willingsworth is the average teen, yet with a large hole in her life that she has tried to fill, but has only left a larger gap in its place. Over the years, Aurea has been born and raised atheist, and has yet to know any different. Of course, there are the average nuisances that are trying to 'evangelize' Aurea at every corner, but she knows deep down inside it's not true. 

When Mary Rose Miller, another one of those 'nuisances', manages to slip a flyer from a church camp and a note to meet up with her to discuss details, Aurea disregards the request. To her dismay, and through an intriguing series of events, Aurea winds up accidentally meeting up with Mary Rose and setting off an explosion that would lead to Aurea being dragged off to retreat with Mary Rose. While there, Aurea meets an interesting figure, by the name of Josiah Kent, that will show her the world of Christ that she has been missing her whole life.

Read about Aurea, Mary Rose, and Josiah in the instant classic spiritual tale, "The Path", that is sure to give you chills and excitement about finding yourself one step closer to your faith.

Unfold by ElRayLeigh

She began to think that this kind of thing didn't happen to people like her, but she realized how wrong she was. This became her story's end the night she picked up those drinks. When she let herself step into that building, when she accepted that job and put on those clothes. They had made her believe she was important. Special. Worth loving. She had thought all these people wanted her, but they only wanted the lie she was selling. She knew this was no longer pretend. She was no longer in control, and she was no longer the one selling herself. She wanted someone to rewrite her story. So for the first time in her life, she raised up her hands, and she started to pray.

A Boy Named Jasper {Wattpad Featured Novel} by MidnightRose55

For with God nothing shall be impossible. (Luke 1:37) ~~~~~ Jasper is a screwed up kid, yet no one cares enough to find out why. Bruises hide his arms and alcohol stains the walls of his house, but he pushes forward because it's the only thing left for him to do. His days are spent in and out of the school psychologist's office, while his nights are spent in fear of his father. His guitar and the secluded spot by the train tracks where he likes to play are the only saving graces in the hell that is his life. No one disrupted this normal routine until Callie came. Callie is far from screwed up; she doesn't have family issues and doesn't understand the first thing about Jasper's world. Her house is filled with answered prayers and smiles of people who love each other. Her arms are clear and her head is full of optimism that Jasper doesn't buy for a second. She never second guessed her sunny disposition on life until she stumbled upon a boy and his guitar down by the train tracks. Callie and Jasper weren't supposed to cross paths. She wasn't supposed to care and he wasn't supposed to let her get under his skin, but then again opposites weren't supposed to attract either. Callie saw the good in him where most people thought there was none ; she was captivated by Jasper because he made her question everything she knew about the world. She thought it would be easy to teach him that there was still good left in the world, that there was more beyond all the bad he'd become accustomed to. She thought fixing him would be easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy and sometimes it takes more than one girl's overly optimistic persistence to pull a person out of the hell they've been living in; sometimes it takes faith and realizing that some things can't be done without it... ~~~~~ -Highest Ranking: #8 in spiritual, 10/25/17 ; #1 in Christianity, 2019 -Wattpad Featured Novel: 10/19/17
