ENUMCLAW, Wash., May 19 /Christian Newswire/ -- Nearly every day, stories of celebrities involved in scandal seem to dominate the news. "It used to be that the indiscretions of the rich and famous rarely made headlines," observes author Becky Toews. "Today a celebrity gets pregnant, and everyone tries to guess the father's identity, and it's not considered abnormal."

The mark of integrity is just one of fourteen marks that Toews discusses in her new book, "Virgin Snow." "Just as walking through freshly fallen snow leaves marks, so each of us leaves a mark as we travel through life," she explains. While offering a fresh outlook on specific challenges faced in everyday life, "Virgin Snow" focuses on the basic human need to leave a legacy and how this need is met by receiving the indelible marks that God makes on his followers.

"We've been given a season on this earth to go where no one else has gone and to do what no one else has done," says Toews. "Each call is distinctive, unique, personal--maybe even a bit peculiar. Like a skier who encounters a hillside of virgin snow, the significance we long for crystallizes when we make new discoveries."

Becky Toews studied in Switzerland under the late Dr. Francis Schaeffer and holds a master's degree from the University of Colorado. As a pastor's wife and mother of two, she understands what inspires people and what their struggles are. She serves as adjunct professor at Lancaster Bible College in Lancaster, PA, and has a widespread speaking ministry. She has also written "The Role of Women," an examination of women’s roles in the home and church.
