Beth K. Vogt's debut novel demonstrations how our plans are not always God's plans for us
When Allison Denman kisses her fiancé's brother just days before her wedding, she's not sure which is the mistake—the kiss or the wedding. It won't be easy, but Allison is determined to find out. In her debut novel Wish You Were Here, Beth K. Vogt provides readers with a happily ever after woven through with humor, reality, and God's lavish grace.
In her personal life, graphic designer Allison doesn't believe in coloring outside the lines. She's lived her life unable to escape the pain of being considered a mistake by her father, so she is determined not to make any mistakes herself. She's just five days away from her happily-ever-after with Seth Rayner when her well-laid plans go awry. She finds herself in a sticky situation when she impulsively kisses Seth's older brother Daniel, the guy who has sent her silly "Wish You Were Here" postcards from his adventures around the world.
Daniel, an outdoors consultant, has had his own struggles with living up to others' expectations. He knows he's not his father's favorite son, but Daniel has made a success of his life without the Rayner family influence. Independent and carefree, Daniel hasn't had the greatest success with relationships and has long-denied his attraction to his future sister-in-law. When Allison leaves his brother at the altar, Daniel feels guilty and tries to repair the damage.
Wish You Were Here follows Allison as she tries to figure out God's perfect plan for her. His plan doesn't come with a no-risk guarantee and might even include a few of her mistakes. Allison's attempts to find lasting happiness are sidetracked by Seth's determination to renew their relationship, her growing attraction to Daniel, relocation to a llama farm, unwelcomed blind dates and an avalanche. Ultimately, Allison does find Mr. Right-for-Her, but who is it?
Vogt has had experience with her plans and God's plans not lining up as expected. She is a non-fiction author and editor who said she'd never write fiction, but God had other plans for her. She decided to begin writing contemporary romance because she believes there's more to happily ever after than the fairy tales tell us.
A conference and retreat speaker, Vogt speaks to moms about some of the issues that impact her characters such as how children struggle with the favoritism of their parents. She also talks about how we have to face the realities in our lives—including our struggles and mistakes—and choose to accept those, knowing God can bring good out of them.
In her presentations, she frequently addresses important current issues such as how bullying and cyber bullying start, keeping your children safe online, and how to keep your sons away from the lure of pornography.

Julie Ziglar Norman encourages audiences to put away their shame and regret
and to live the life of hope that God has planned for them.
Julie Ziglar Norman often says her dad is the king of "doing life right" and she is the poster child for "doing life wrong." In Growing Up Ziglar: A Daughter's Broken Journey from Heartache to Hope(Guideposts/May 1, 2012/ ISBN 978-0-8249-4531-2/$14.99), Norman shares how for 25 years she lived every day with regret, shame, guilt, and depression while trying to keep up the positive outer appearance that was expected of her as the daughter of popular motivational author and speaker Zig Ziglar.
Although her father was not well known until she was in her late teens, he always emphasized being positive. "When I talk about what it was like growing up with Mr. Positive Attitude himself, I enjoy teasing about waking up to an 'opportunity clock' instead of an alarm clock," says Norman. "Daddy has always been positive and looked on the bright side, and he brought lots of joy and laughter into our home. He was and is a fun and loving father who always has a good story and lots of hugs and kisses for his children." FULL POST

By the Light of the Silvery Moon combines historical accuracy with a story of love and redemption
When the Titanic left Southampton on April 10, 1912, the world was fascinated with its size, the luxury, the symbol of prominence for the wealthy onboard, and the promise for the emigrants hoping for a better future in America. For the past 100 years since its sinking on April 15, 1912, the world has been consumed with how a ship deemed unsinkable sank, the artifacts at the bottom of the ocean, the stories of the people on board, and the history the ship held. In commemoration of this landmark anniversary, award-winning author Tricia Goyer has released By the Light of the Silvery Moon (Barbour Publishing/March 2012/ISBN 978-1-61626-551-9).
When the Titanic movie first came out in 1997, Goyer, like most of America, became fascinated with the tragedy. "The movie captured my attention. Yes, there was a love story, but the ship of dreams fascinated me even more. I checked out many books at the library and bought others on the Titanic. I didn't think of writing a novel about it. Still, I carried a love inside for that amazing ship and its passengers," says Goyer.
Around that same time, Goyer had been working on the idea for a novel centering on a contemporary retelling of the prodigal son. While the idea did not go farther than the prologue at the time, she kept the idea in the back of her mind. Fifteen years later, when her publisher approached her about the possibility of writing a book to mark the anniversary of the Titanic, Goyer was excited about the opportunity and realized that it was time to merge the two ideas together in a unique, faith-filled tale of love and reconciliation.
By the Light of the Silvery Moon tells the story of Amelia Gladstone whose mind is filled with promise as she gazes at the marvelous new ship, ready for its maiden voyage. The Titanic holds the promise of a reunited family and of possible love waiting on American shores.
Down-and-out after squandering his fortune, Quentin Walpole thought his voyage to America ended on the Southampton pier. Then a sweet lady—his angel of mercy named Amelia—secured his passage with a spare ticket. Now he's headed to America, eager for a second chance.
But once the voyage begins, the past confronts Quentin when he discovers that his wealthy railroad tycoon father and older brother Damien are also on board. As Amelia tries to bring about reconciliation between father and son, she suddenly finds herself the center of both brothers' attention with a choice to make: Who can she trust with her heart? Will Amelia's fate ultimately be one of love or loss?
Goyer's extensive research from books, documentaries and visiting a museum dedicated to the ship all contribute to making By the Light of the Silvery amazingly historically accurate. With her beautiful gift of storytelling, readers are sure to feel that they have been transported back 100 years to the fateful night that changed the lives of all onboard the "Ship of Dreams."

From Girl to Woman...
Reclaiming the Rite of Passage for Girls through a Blessing Tea
Are you ever a bit envious of our friends from other cultures and faiths who honor their children turning into young adults? As Christians, we may not hold Bar or Bat Mitzvahs on their 13th birthdays as in the Jewish tradition or Quinceaneras on our daughter's 15th birthday like those of Hispanic heritage, but we can certainly recapture the spirit of this unique age by commemorating this milestone with a Christ-centered celebration. While many American families are throwing slumber parties for their 13 year olds, one woman in California decided to throw a "Blessing Tea" for her daughter—and the trend is taking off among Christians.
Roxanne Packham, President of InspiredDesign Ministries, had the idea several years ago to put on a "Blessing Tea" for her then 13-year-old daughter. The concept is taken from the Jewish tradition of celebrating this momentous year of "becoming a woman" with a huge party, centered on the Jewish Scriptures. Roxanne invited several of the most influential Christian women in Hannah's life (mentors) to join them for a tea to honor her daughter. While she used her love for table decorating to create a beautiful environment, the real beauty lay in the hearts of the women who came to "bless" Hannah. Each special mentor woman shared a note/letter to Hannah. The notes included encouraging words, favorite memories, prophetic insights, special scriptures, and wise teaching/advice for the teenage years. This day served to cement in Hannah's mind who "had her back", who loves her, who will be there for her in the future and a memory that she could take with her into her high school years which are so often filled with identity-searching and emotional struggles.
The concept of a Blessing Tea began to take off in homes of people who had heard of Roxanne's experience. One woman Camille, a long time friend of Roxanne's, loved the idea so much she has now done it with two of her teenage daughters. She added an additional layer of giving each of the mentors their own blessing and scripture as a way to honor the women who have helped to guide and shape her daughters spiritually. According to Roxanne, "Especiallybecause I only have one daughter, I wanted to make the most of every moment of her life. I was inspired to use my gift for creating a beautiful table and practicing hospitality with my love for my daughter. My biggest desire was to create an environment where very dear Christian women could pour into my daughter blessings and encouragement to carry her through the next phase in her life. Often, a mother's impact alone only goes so far!"
Roxanne's book Inspired Design has a chapter about this Blessing Tea and serves as inspiration for other mothers looking to recapture the age old tradition of "coming of age" for young women. Currently, Roxanne is overseeing two nonprofit organizations: Inspired Design and Inspired31.org. Inspired Design strives to inspire women to find joy in the practice of hospitality, grow closer with their Designer, and discover the true beauty of the home—ultimately only found in the heart of the woman. By providing inspiring speakers, books, and practical resources, Inspired Design aims to empower women to unleash their creativity in their homes for the purpose of blessing others. Inspired31.org is a unique mother/teenage daughter organization, which aims to inspire teenage girls, mothers and others to find, follow and celebrate God's vision for their lives. By providing inspirational quality speakers and a friendly environment in the form of casual afternoon teas, these teen girls are exposed to authentic role models who are making a difference in the world and offer an alternative vision to the pop culture icons of today. Proceeds of her book sales all go to fund the Heart of Hope Ministries International who provide love and resources to orphans in Romania.

An interview with Carl Kerby, author of
Reasons for Hope in the Mosaic of Your Life
(Part 2)
In Reasons for Hope in the Mosaic of Your Life, author Carl Kerby examines how life is often not picture-perfect, and difficult times can make it hard to see a plan or purpose for our lives. No matter what your circumstances, God can gather up the broken pieces and random elements of your life and form them into a beautiful mosaic—making you a useful vessel for His glory.
Q: You mention that America is such a blessed nation, yet many are experiencing hopelessness and despair. What can the Church do about that?
Compared to other countries, America is a blessed nation, to say the least. Yet in the midst of our prosperity, we see waves of hopelessness crashing all around us—increasing rates of divorce, sexual perversion, depression, suicide, etc. Something is definitely not right in America.
It's estimated that the U.S. has nearly 400,000 churches. If those churches were filled with folks who truly believed what they said they believed and whose lives reflected those beliefs, it would be having a tremendous impact across our nation. We need bold individuals living out what they believe. Why? Because everyone needs hope.
But there is a big difference between temporal (earthly) hope and eternal (heavenly) hope. Many people try to find hope by placing their trust in individuals, relationships, status, or material things. The truth is, only those of us who know Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior know what it's like to have an eternal, all-sufficient hope that will never disappoint. People desperately need God's hope and redemption. So why are Christians too embarrassed or afraid to share their faith?
Q: Your book devotes a whole section to apologetics. What is apologetics, and why does it matter to the average Christian?
Apologetics is simply giving reasonable explanations for our faith. We should be able to state clearly what we believe and why we believe it. In 1 Peter 3:15, God is not suggesting, He is commanding that all Christians be prepared to give reasons for our hope to everyone who asks us.
When Jesus asked His disciples, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" it showed He expected His followers to be talking with people about spiritual issues and telling them how they can have hope. Everyone needs to know the only source of true hope—for this life and for the next.
So that we can offer people answers from a biblical perspective, the book addresses topics like evolution, suffering, dinosaurs, absolute truth, and other common questions.
Q: A recurring theme in your book—and ministry—is the priority of God's Word. Why is that a major emphasis for you?
The Bible isn't a book of fairy tales or fables simply dealing with spiritual and moral issues. It is actually the most accurate history book ever written, from the only One who's always been there and who knows everything that has ever happened in this world.
The Word of God addresses how to handle all kinds of issues in every area of life. It teaches us how to develop godly relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children. It teaches that life is not about us and our interests, but about God and His plan.
I want to challenge people with the knowledge that the Word of God, from the beginning of Genesis to the end of Revelation, has all the answers we need today—not only for doctrine, but for our daily lives.
Q: Matt Butler (NewSong) said that your book "urges readers to take belief in the Bible seriously and to be intentional about passing on that legacy to the next generation." What advice do you give on how to do that?
When I asked questions as a kid, adults often pawned me off on a pastor or teacher to get the answer, or told me, "Shh! Good boys don't ask those questions!" When my kids were young, I realized I was doing the same thing—pawning them off on somebody else because I didn't have the answers. But it hit me: as a Christian, I have to know the answers. I am responsible. I was challenged as a parent to realize that if I didn't provide answers for my son and daughter, I was communicating a wrong message: that their questions didn't matter and the Bible had a very limited application.
I often hear complaints about how the government or public schools are causing children to rebel and walk away from God. But the problem doesn't start in the White House, the schoolhouse, or even the church house. The problem starts in our house. If we're losing 50–88% of the children raised in Christian homes to the world, we have to quit blaming everybody else and do something about it.
The Bible says it's primarily the job of fathers to instill biblical values in their children and teach them to love and serve God. When we abdicate that responsibility to other people or institutions, trust me: we will not like the outcome. Unfortunately, we often focus more on helping our kids excel at sports, academics, and other activities than we do on helping them live godly lives.

An Interview with Marty Machowski, author of The Gospel Story Bible
Marty Machowski has written The Gospel Story Bible (New Growth Press) as a way for families to share Bible stories together, meet Jesus and learn together a new, life-changing way of recognizing him as the hero of every story. Based on the ESV Bible, this unique, illustrated Bible storybook uses 156 stories to present God's plan of salvation in Christ from its opening narrative in Genesis to its finale in Revelation. The Gospel Story Bible is one of the many products now available in the Gospel Story for Kids series.
Q: What age groups do you think will benefit the most by reading The Gospel Story Bible?
The Gospel Story Bible was written for parents to read to their children. Children as young as two-years-old will enjoy listing to the stories and children as old as 5th grade still enjoy hearing a story read to them. Rather than produce an early reader Bible that children can learn to read through, we wanted to preserve the more sophisticated details in the stories. As a result, older children can benefit from the Gospel Story Bible too!
The last paragraph of each story is a short commentary on the story, helping the reader connect the story to God's larger plan of redemption. So, even teens can learn a basic biblical theology by reading through the Gospel Story Bible.
Q: How can readers learn to recognize Jesus as the hero of their own personal stories, no matter how mundane or ordinary?
Everyone, both young and old, needs the salvation that only Jesus can provide. We are all lost in our sin like the Israelites. We all need a Savior. Reading through the Gospel Story Bible helps you to recognize and understand how the Gospel is interwoven through the whole Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. Knowing the scope of God's plan of redemption helps you see how your life connects to that plan as well.
Q: In what ways does the Old Testament point forward to God's story of salvation through Jesus Christ?
Every Old Testament Story is pointing forward to God's plan of redemption in some way. From God sacrificing an animal to make clothes to cover Adam and Eve, through the last prophecy of a coming redeemer, each story points us to Jesus.
Too often these same Bible stories are moralized. So many children grew up thinking the story of David and Goliath, for example, is in the Bible to help us conquer the giants in our own lives. But really that is not why God put that story in the Bible. David steps in as a deliverer when all of Israel sinfully refused to do what God called them to do, fight the Philistines.
David accepts Goliath's challenge and so becomes Israel's representative head to fight Goliath. If David wins, all of Israel wins, and the Philistines become their slaves. In that role David is a picture of Jesus who came as our representative head to deliver us from our enemies, sin and death. Jesus came in the family line of David and Jesus came as a king in the royal line of King David. The story of David and Goliath is meant to point us to God's future plan to send a Davidic King to deliver us from our great enemies.
Every lamb sacrificed points us to Jesus, the Lamb of God, who died on the cross for our sins. Every deliverer points us to Jesus our Savior. Every undeserved blessing toward Israel points to the grace of God in bringing us a salvation we don't deserve.
Q: How important are the colorful illustrations in drawing children to read the stories?
Ann Macha has done a fabulous job in concert with the art direction of the New Growth Press team. The Gospel Story Bible has the most colorful illustrations I have ever seen in any children's book period! Children are drawn to the illustrations. Parents reading the Gospel Story Bible to their children can expect children to stay focused on the page because the illustrations draw their eye.
In addition to the illustrations each story has a "Let's talk about it" section which gives parents three questions they can ask their children for every story. These questions turn the Gospel Story Bible into a family devotional tool.

Award-winning author and popular radio host Chris Fabry explores ethical dilemmas in his latest release, Not in the Heart
If your child needed a life-saving heart transplant, how far would you go to make it happen? How would you feel if a man convicted of murder offered his heart to your child? In his latest release, Not in the Heart, author Chris Fabry passionately delves into hot topics such as capital punishment, gambling addiction and organ donation, leaving readers to examine their own lives and views.
Not in the Heart is a story of redemption—the story of two men's lives who bear the consequences of their addictions and receive a second chance. Unfortunately, addiction has become commonplace in our culture, with the effects not only impacting the individuals but also those around them. This story will encourage anyone who has a loved one battling addiction.
View the book trailer and read an excerpt at www.chrisfabry.com. Listen to Chris Fabry's own radio show introducing the book and asking listeners "Who is your Truman?" based on the main character of the book.
Q&A with Chris Fabry, Author of Not in the Heart
Q: Your newest novel, Not in the Heart, faces heavy topics such as gambling addiction, capital punishment and organ donation. Where did you get your inspiration for the book?
My stories usually come from some aspect of real life. I worked in TV news with a friend who went on to work for CNN. He was the pool reporter for an execution of a man in South Carolina. That really affected him for a number of years and his views on capital punishment were altered. We have friends with a young son with a heart condition and many friends have marriages that are on the brink or have crumbled. There is also spiritual searching and gambling, so I feel it's a pretty realistic picture of a lot of relationships.
Q: Several of the characters in Not in the Heart deal with life changing addictions. Have you struggled with addiction in your own life?
I've never been diagnosed with an addiction, but I can see how most people are addicted to something. We depend on something outside of us to make us happy, give us a good feeling. I've had issues with food and soft drinks and sports. That's more respectable than gambling or cocaine or alcohol, but I'm in the same boat in a lot of ways. Anything we use to make ourselves numb to reality and numb to life can restrict our relationship with God.
Q: What encouragement would you offer to your readers who may be dealing with an addiction? What encouragement would you give to the family of an addict?
To the addict, I would say that there is hope for you. There is hope for your relationships. God offers you freedom if you will choose it. It's not an overnight thing—it can be, but it usually isn't. If you want freedom, you can have it.
To the family, I would say to hang in there and to love the other person well. Sometimes loving the other person means letting them go. It can look messy and not feel like love.
Q: Is addiction usually the result of other factors going on in one's life? What drove the addiction of the character in your book?
My main character has an addictive personality, no doubt. The factors in his life are like those in society—the more stress, the more anxiety and pain, the more likely a person is to seek something that will soothe them and help them dull that pain. For some it's drugs or alcohol; for others it may be sex or gambling. For some it's food. It can really be anything that takes away the intense pain that person is experiencing. I'm not an expert or a psychologist, but I've observed addictions in people's lives stemming from those surface struggles, but the addictions go way deeper.
Q: Problem Gambling Awareness Week is March 4-10, 2012. Do you know how many Americans struggle with an addiction to gambling?
I have seen stats that say as many as 15-20 million people in the U.S. are addicted to gambling. That's 5-7% of the entire population. And those numbers are only going to go up with the increase in availability.
Q: You have had your own struggles over the past few years. Tell us about some of what your own family has gone through in regards to having to start over.
Our family moved into a huge home in Colorado in 2000. Soon after we started seeing some unusual physical problems that accelerated after we found mold growing behind a bathroom wall. The remediation was done incorrectly, and our problems got worse. We walked away from the house in 2008 with the clothes on our backs and moved to Arizona to get treatment. It's been one of the most difficult things to go through, watching our children suffer, but also one of the most rewarding because we've seen God work in spite of our illnesses and losses.
Q: Didn't your children become ill as a result of the mold problem? Much like your main character, you had to watch them struggle without much you could do to help. How did you work your own experience into this story?
Six weeks after the first exposure one son contracted Type 1 diabetes, which doesn't run in our family. Another son had ringing in one ear and, as a result of surgery to correct it, he's now deaf in that ear. I could go on with the sicknesses of the kids but, yes, watching our kids suffer helped in writing the book. I can see why Truman would want to run away from the pain. I also met a little boy named Levi who has a heart problem, and I extrapolated the pain his parents had gone through in deciding about his surgery.
Q: February 14th was the National Organ Donor Day. Do you know how many people in our country are waiting for an organ donor?
There are 70-80 organ transplants done every day, I believe. On the downside, about 18 people die every day awaiting an organ transplant. I've known several people who have undergone a transplant of a kidney or a liver, and the change in lifestyle is amazing.
Q: What do you hope your readers will take away from reading Not in the Heart?
Love conquers all. What is done in secret will one day come to light. God is the great pursuer of our hearts and we are restless until we find our rest in Him. There is hope for even smarmy characters who set up their own morality. There is hope for the addicted.

Do the opinions of those around us really matter? Should we live our lives based on what others might think? In her latest release, The Accidental Bride (Thomas Nelson), award-winning author Denise Hunter explores these questions as she deftly leads her readers to discover the One whose favor should always be sought. Skillfully creating a love story that beautifully reflects God's grace, Hunter uses the pages of The Accidental Bride to bring to light preoccupation with caring what others think. Using complex characters, an enticing backdrop and an almost palpable range of emotion and conflict, Hunter draws her readers to a new awareness of how much more simple life becomes when we aim to please God instead of man.

An Interview with Dr. Robert Jeffress,
Author of Twilight's Last Gleaming
Q: Your latest book is Twilight's Last Gleaming: How America's Last Days Can Be Your Best Days. Explain what you mean by America's last days.
I want to help people realize that, ultimately, we are not going to save America. America's days are numbered, because this world's days are numbered. But instead of reacting with despair and fear, Christians are to realize that while we cannot prevent the demise of our country, we can delay the demise of our country by being the salt and light Jesus commanded us to be. That's really what this book is about: how Christians can be salt and light in a decaying and darkening world.
Q: You mentioned a "tide of immorality" sweeping the nation. What are some of the issues you think Christians are facing in America today?
One chapter of the book is devoted to how Christians should vote. John Jay, the first chief justice of the Supreme Court, said, "It is our duty to prefer and select Christians as our leaders." In the Old Testament days, the spiritual direction of the country was directed by the king. If he was a righteous king, the nation was blessed by God; if he was an unrighteous king, then the nation was cursed by God. In our democracy, we get to choose our leaders. Although I'm not going to tell people who to vote for in the 2012 election, I'm going to talk about what criteria every Christian ought to use to select a candidate for office, including the President's.
Q: What would be your advice to Christians who are trying to navigate the current cultural terrain?
I really think Christians have gone to one of two extremes in the past. One extreme, in reaction to what has been happening in our country, is political activism—the belief that if we can just elect the right candidates and enact the right laws, we can save America. The other extreme has been political passivism. That is to say, "Well, that's not our responsibility. We're just to preach the gospel and leave that political stuff up to other people." I think we're actually to do both. I think we do, as Christians, need to stand up and push back against the tide of immorality that is sweeping our country. Instead of hunkering down and buying gold and waiting for the end to come, we ought to see that we have an unprecedented opportunity to share the gospel in these dark times.
Q: In these days of economic distress, many Americans are looking for answers. How would your book benefit those who are not necessarily Christians?
For those who aren't Christians, it will make them realize that the only hope for our culture ultimately is faith in Jesus Christ. What I'm saying to people is that the only way to save America is by saving Americans. Just like the Statue of Liberty holds up the torch, Christians need to hold up the light of the gospel. So mainly this series is directed to Christians, to motivate them not to be angry or depressed or apathetic about our country's situation, but to be proactive and do what God's commanded us to do.
(Q&A adapted from an interview with The Christian Post.)

The writers start out by giving the reader a basic lesson in hormones: which ones are present, how they work, and what happens when they aren't working properly. Next, they delve into symptoms of the person with imbalanced hormones, followed by testing for hormone imbalance, and finally instruction on using natural hormone replacement therapy. There are a variety of ways to balance your hormones. The writer's devote several chapters to the individual hormones and their function in the body and the proper ratios of these hormones in relation to each other.
The best way to determine your need is the symptoms guide, which will allow you to see if you fall into any of the categories that could benefit by natural hormones.
There is so much to be gleaned from Dr. Lee's books and more people need to know of the natural methods he advocated. I was truly fascinated by the information given in this book, and plan to follow up on it by reading one of Dr. Lee's earlier book, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About PreMenopause.
Armchair Interviews says: This book would be a perfect place to start for a woman of any age, from childbearing years all the way through menopause.
It is outrageous how menopausal women are given prozac and told "you're getting older, get used to it". YOU ARE A CONSUMER...your body is more important than your possessions...do your homework and don't tolerate 5th rate medicine...there are knowledgeable physicians out there...Dr Lee was one...check out the new website [...]
My Dr proved to be a total jerk...yes JERK...he gives ALL his patients..all sizes.. the same amount of synthetic hormones..when I questionned the logic in that, his response was "well, you can take it or not" once he does his female castration he knows you can't be a source of any more money and he could care less..AND HE IS NOT ALONE..hysterectomies are BIG business! You have to do your homework!!!!
Read Dr Lee's books..and when you get sorted out, drag your husband in and get him sorted out...they have the same problems..Viagra is not the answer....GOOD LUCK!!

Exhibitionist nudists causing a stir on the Kapiti Coast should bare their credentials by officially applying for a secluded beach area, a councillor says.
Residents between Te Hapua Rd and Peka Peka beaches have complained about increased "aggressive" nudity pushing locals off their beach.
The beach has been known as a gay meeting place for many years, with locals describing nude men "popping up like meerkats" in the sand dunes.
Residents say naturists, exhibitionists and voyeurs have added to the mix, resulting in couples copulating in public view, and other exhibitionist behaviour.
Kapiti district councillor K Gurunathan believed naturist group NZ Free Beach, which used the area, should ask the council to set aside a secluded part for its use.
The group advertises the spot on its website and put up a flag, with a bear and the message "bare on the beach", at the beach entrance a few weeks ago. Council staff removed it.
"Naturists claim to have a philosophy of openness," Mr Gurunathan said. "It is time that claim was tested and they are exposed through the democratic process. The council has a civilised process of balancing the conflicting use of beachgoers.
"I challenge NZ Free Beach to use this process instead of tactics they seem to have chosen that is alienating the rights of our locals."
NZ Free Beach spokeswoman Joyce Fleming said the organisation did not want a designated beach and rejected claims that members had been offensive. "Having a specified beach would suggest other beaches are not available. At the moment naturists have the use of any beach in New Zealand and use discretion, respect, etiquette and proper behaviour.
"Our family-friendly organisation is up against people misbehaving, they are our worst enemy. We have a strict code on conduct, unlike voyeurs, exhibitionists and sex addicts." The organisation relied on police to charge people with offensive behaviour, she said.
Senior Sergeant Noel Bigwood, of Otaki, announced last month that police planned to target offensive behaviour at the beach. Making an example of a couple of offenders would hopefully "stop other beach users having anything shoved in their face".
Council regulatory services manager Ken Smith said the council debated the issue of deeming specific beaches "clothing optional" two years ago but decided it related more to whether nude behaviour was regarded as offensive or not, which was a police matter.
Nudity is allowed on New Zealand beaches unless it is regarded as offensive. The only other beach in the Wellington region commonly regarded as a nude beach is at Breaker Bay.

Samsung F490 goes up against iPhone
Samsung has announced that it is taking Apple's iPhone head on with the launch of a new mobile phone that features a 3.2-inch touchscreen display.
The new model, called the Samsung F490 will also come with a 5 megapixel camera and a host of other features for customers to get the most out of the screen.
Launching the UK first in February and then the rest of the world shortly after, it will be just 11.8mm thick, just 0.2mm thicker than an iPhone, while the screen is just 0.3-inches smaller on the diagonal.
Featuring the company's "Croix UI" user interface the unit will also feature haptic feedback from touching the screen as found in the company's F700 model available on Vodafone.
Other features include a standard 3.5mm audio jack, support for compatible microSD cards and 130MB internal memory.
HSDPA, and Bluetooth connectivity finish off the specs, and the phone won't offer Wi-Fi.

DEFINITION of 'Put To Seller'
The exercise of a put option. Put to seller would usually occur when the strike price of the put is lower than the market value of the underlying security. At this point, the seller would have the option, but not the obligation to sell the asset to the option writer for a higher price than what is currently dictated by the market.
BREAKING DOWN 'Put To Seller'
For example, consider a situation where an investor buys puts to hedge downside risk in his or her position in stock A. The investor buys three-month puts on A with a strike price of $25 and pays a premium of $1.50 (for example). The put seller or writer who earns the premium of $1.50 assumes the risk of buying A from the investor if it falls below $25. Towards the end of the three-month period, if stock A is trading at $22, the investor will sell stock A to the put writer, and receive $25 for each share of stock A.
