The doctrine of the Trinity is almost as misunderstood as it is essential. Many Christians have a hard time articulating an orthodox understanding of this foundational tenet.

Our Triune God: Living in the Love of the Three-in-One  (available from Vyrso all March long for only $1.49!), is  an accessible primer on trinitarian theology. With Our Triune God,  you will understand clearly communicated doctrine as well as  its important implications for the Christian.

This ebook is divided into four chapters:

• The Saving Trinity: Our Triune God and the Plan of Salvation
• The Mysterious Trinity: Our Triune God and Human Comprehension
• The Practical Trinity: Our Triune God and the Christian Life
• The Joyous Trinity: Our Triune God and His People

“Philip Ryken and Michael LeFebvre have written a delightful book that will help us to better understand the great truth of the Trinity: one God in three Persons. Better yet, it should cause us to grow in our appreciation of the distinct works of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in our salvation and sanctification. I heartily commend this book.”—Jerry Bridges, author, The Pursuit of Holiness

Winning one NCAA national championship may be a fluke, but what about 10 in a 12-year period? What if seven of those wins are in a row? There’s no question about it—there was something special about coach John Wooden’s leadership.

When it came to coaching, Wooden had only had three hard-and-fast rules: no profanity, tardiness, or criticizing fellow teammates. But in his personal life he was guided by seven principles which influenced everything he did:

• Be true to yourself.
• Help others.
• Make friendship a fine art.
• Drink deeply from good books, especially the Bible.
• Make each day your masterpiece.
• Build a shelter against a rainy day by the life you live.
• Give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.

These principles were key to Coach Wooden’s ability to lead one of the greatest dynasties in sports history.

Today, March 8, you can get Coach Wooden: The 7 Principles that Shaped His Life and Will Change Yours from Vyrso—absolutely free! Head to Vyrso and pick up this powerful book today!

Sub·ver·sion: n the act or an instance of subverting or overthrowing a legally instituted government, institution, etc*

Christianity, by its very nature, is subversive. It overthrows the accepted personal and social status quo and, in its place, elevates the kingdom and rule of God. That is, unless Christianity is submersing itself in the content and character of the world.

In Holy Subversion: Allegiance to Christ in an Age of Rivals, Trevin Wax takes us back to the first century when following Christ meant turning one’s back against Caesar worship. Wax warns us against worshiping our modern day “Caesars”: self, success, money, leisure, sex, power. He invites all of us Christ-followers to rethink our allegiances and subvert the kingdoms which fight for our attention and loyalty.

You can pick up Holy Subversion this March for only $2.24 as part of Vyrso’s Bring Back Spring sale. Don’t forget to check out the other freebies and deals available through March!

She has been hailed as one of the most powerful voices in Christian fiction by Publishers Weekly. She lives in Kentucky with her husband and three kids, and spends every ounce of free time writing.

Inwardly, however, she is falling apart, overcome by the idea that her comfortable life is keeping her from God’s will. With the help of the church, her patient family, and her two best friends, Heather comes to some painful conclusions about her past and future. Heather can’t solve all of her problems, but she paints a wonderful portrait of a soul beckoned by God.

“These very private people might dress differently and avoid the use of electricity and modern conveniences, but they are just like everyone else.  They love, hurt, have daily challenges and struggles, and strive to be the best they can be.” — Beth Wiseman

Beth Wiseman is the bestselling author of the Daughters of the Promise series: Plain Perfect, Plain Pursuit, Plain Promise, Plain Paradise, and Plain Proposal. As a former newspaper reporter, Wiseman was honored by her peers with eleven journalism awards, including the First Place News Writing Award for the Texas Press Association. She left her job as a journalist in 2008 to focus on her passion for fiction.

Plain Perfect, the first novel in the series, tells the story of Lillian, who, after years of neglect and abuse, moves in with her Amish grandparents. She must decide if she can truly leave her life in the city for a new, simpler life. Not all of these changes are difficult, though; Lillian is instantly attracted to Samuel, a young widower in the Amish community. But tragedy strikes and challenges everything she knows—including her budding faith. Can Lillian carry on her faith in plain living, or will she return to her former life?

You can pick up each of the books in the Daughters of Promise series for only $3.99 until March 15!

“Well, well, well, guess what I’ve found? A fiction writer with a rare knack for a compelling story, an expansive reservoir of clever ideas, and a unique wit that makes me laugh.” —Frank Peretti, Best-selling author of The Oath and Monster.

Ted Dekker is a New York Times best-selling author of more than twenty novels. He is known for his suspense thrillers with major twists and extraordinary characters. Dekker’s novels have sold over 5 million copies worldwide. Two of his novels, Thr3e and House, have been made into movies—with more in production. Dekker resides in Austin, Texas with his wife Lee Ann and their two daughters.

Thr3e is the story of Kevin Parsins. Like all people, Kevin has his secrets. Little does he know that someone desperately wants them revealed. Kevin is driving home late after graduate school one evening when, suddenly, his cell phone rings. A man who identifies himself as Slater speaks in a deep, whispering voice: “You have exactly three minutes to confess your sin to the world. Refuse and the car you’re driving will blow sky high.”

Kevin finds himself in a complete state of panic. Who would make such a call? What sin? This starts a tormenting sequence of events. After barely escaping his exploding car, Kevin continues to receive phone calls from Slater, each with another puzzle, another consequence, and another three minutes to confess his sin.

This gripping thriller will surprise you with every twist and turn. It is intense, fast-paced, and exciting. The plot is unpredictable, and the ending is unexpected.

All of Ted Dekker’s ebooks are currently on sale from Vyrso for $3.99! Download Thr3e now, and be sure to check out some of Dekker’s other enthralling stories such as House, Chaos, and Chosen. 

Here is the second part of our two-part interview with Tricia Goyer and Mike Yorkey, authors of The Swiss Courier. In this installment, Goyer and Yorkey share both the process of collaborative writing as well as their process for writing historical fiction.

How did you decide to collaborate on a manuscript? 
Who did what?

Mike: You might say that Tricia and I started on a lark. We had this germ of an idea about a Swiss courier being asked to do something that she never envisioned doing. As we discussed plot ideas, I wrote them down and then sent my file to Tricia, who added more thoughts. After several months, we had a strong outline of what we wanted to do. Then I would write a chapter or two and send them over Tricia, who would edit, make suggestions, or even rewrite whole sections. The process pretty much went like this throughout the entire manuscript. I wrote chapters in my “spare” time as I had other editorial commitments, so it took me about two years to finish the first draft. Then Tricia and I went back and forth on edits as she worked around her busy schedule. This was definitely a labor of love.

Tricia: Mike put the ideas on the page . . . and I worked to bring the people and the story to life. There were some sections (technical stuff) where I gave very little input. There were other parts (like the romance) where I, yes, rewrote whole sections! I thought we worked well together, as we each respected the other person’s talents.

How do you go about writing a novel based on historical fact? How does that shape the manuscript and tone of the book?

Mike: I read the definitive biography of Werner Heisenberg—Heisenberg’s War: The Secret History of the German Atomic Bomb by Thomas Powers. A couple of books about American and British pilots interned in Switzerland during the war (Shot from the Sky and Refuge from the Reich) were especially helpful. World War II novels dealing with the Switzerland and the OSS were beneficial, such as The Swiss Account by popular novelist Paul Erdman. Once you have this information in your head, you create these characters and let things play out as you envision everything happening. By the end of the novel, I really believed that [Swiss Courier characters] Gabi Mueller and Eric Hofstadler lived!

Tricia: To balance that, I usually read a lot of “true” stories. I’ve written about spies in my Chronicle of the Spanish Civil War series, and I devoured as many autobiographical accounts as I could. I’m thankful Mike focused on the technical details so I could play with the motivations, fears, and inward battles that these people faced.

What do you hope a reader takes away from The Swiss Courier?

Mike: An appreciation for those who stood up against the Nazi regime. All it took was a jealous neighbor to denounce you to the Gestapo, and you were in for a heap of hurt—and probably a painful death.

Tricia: A sleepless night! Ha! I hope this story will entertain. I also hope the reader will come away with “external” knowledge about this time in history and “internal” strengthening of one’s own convictions.

If you want to enjoy a sleepless night full of intrigue, excitement, and romance, download The Swiss Courier for $4.49 (available at this price through February!) from Vyrso today.
