What About The Existence of God - What Is True and What Is Not

2012-02-13T12:03:00.001-08:00

Why Everyone's Belief About God Cannot Be True

Many sincere and good people, who have varying beliefs about God, have the right to believe whatever they want. However, everyone's belief cannot be true when it comes to God's existence and identity. This is not uncaring or intolerant; it's simply, as we have just reviewed how truth works. If truth could contradict itself, a Christian and an Atheist would both be correct about God's existence and we know this is impossible.

Suppose you were a detective and six people showed up (an Atheist, Buddhist, Muslim, Mormon, Hindu and Christian) with different stories claiming to be the sole heir of a tremendous fortune. Could they all be telling the truth? No, you would immediately recognize the obvious problem, six people claiming to be the sole heir is a contradiction and could not possibly be true.

Therefore you would check out their stories and follow the evidence to uncover the truth. At some point their explanations would be contradictory to the facts in your investigation. Once you discover who the actual heir is, you would know for certain that the other five claims were false, no matter how close to the truth they appeared.

When it comes to God we have a similar situation. Many people have shown up and claim to know the truth about God. On the surface it may seem like most of them are headed in the same direction. But when we look closer, we see that they all contradict each other when it comes to the most important points, like salvation. Christianity is the sole belief that teaches salvation by God's grace, through faith alone. The others teach works (good deeds) and specific conditions as a necessity. Both can't be right.

Reaching A Widow

For Immediate Release
Gospel for Asia

Like this woman missionary, Benita and Esther share the Good News with women who have not yet heard. Pull Quotes: Masara gave up hope and waited to die. Nearly everyone in Masara's village is interested in knowing more about Christ.

SOUTH ASIA (ANS) -- Masara Doshi had a wonderful life. The then 81-year-old woman lived in good health; her family loved her; and even after her husband's death in 2001, she was cared for well.

But one morning in 2004, Masara woke up and couldn't move her legs. She was paralyzed from the waist down.

The whole family was shocked. Masara had been in perfect health up until that day. Her sons immediately brought her to one temple after another, asking the priests to pray and offer sacrifices for her healing. The family also met with witch doctors, and they gave Masara special pills to take. Time went by, and they realized Masara wasn't getting any better-she was getting worse.

Her immune system became weak, and her good health gave way to many different sicknesses. She eventually lost much of her sight and her hearing. Before long, Masara gave up hope and waited to die.

Her family was brokenhearted because of her suffering, but they didn't know what to do or who to turn to for help.

Messengers of Hope

In early 2011, however, two women walked into their village carrying Good News of great joy. Until that day, no one in the village had ever heard of Jesus Christ.

The two Gospel for Asia-supported missionaries, Benita Viswanathan and Esther Singh, knocked on Masara's door. They began telling her sons and daughters-in-law about the Lord's love for them. When Benita and Esther explained that Christ not only forgives people of their sins but also has the power to heal them, a flicker of hope arose in the family's hearts.

Masara's son Ojas began describing his mother's condition to the women and asked them to come inside the house to see her. Benita shared the Good News with Masara, and Esther prayed for her healing. Just before they left, they gave Masara a New Testament.

Women of Prayer

Benita and Esther continued ministering in that village for another week, the whole time fasting and praying for Masara's healing.

Although the Lord did not immediately heal Masara, He continued to work in her heart and in the hearts of her family members. Just days after the women missionaries left the village, He gave the family the faith to trust Him with their lives.

Benita and Esther persisted in prayer for Masara, and the Lord completely healed the elderly woman of her paralysis, vision problems, hearing impairments and sicknesses!

Masara, at 88 years old, actively shares the grace she has found in Jesus Christ with others who have not heard. She has an especially powerful testimony because of the respect her culture gives to elders.

Nearly everyone in her village is interested in knowing more about Christ because of the miracle He performed in her life. And, despite their culture's hostility toward Christianity, 22 villagers have embraced the love of God.

Please pray for Masara's village, that many more people will come to know the Lord's love for them. Please also pray for the ministry of Benita and Esther, that the Lord would continue to bless them.

A Powerful Mini-Book That Packs A Punch - Gravity, True For You But Not For Me by Michael Edwards

10.0 stars on a scale of 10.0 stars

"Gravity, True For You But Not For Me" by Author Michael Edwards is quite a powerful mini-book that packs the punch, "Big surprises come in little packages," which is an understatement. Perfect for evangelism and originally an e-book, this book addresses every possible question or doubt about Christianity by combining facts, evidence and the truth with biblical principles. This book has the reader examine what is truth, does God exist, can we trust the Bible, did the resurrection really happen, and who did Jesus claim to be. Then by giving a twelve-point conclusion the author ends the journey with a pathway to salvation. Keep several copies of this one in your car, you'll want to hand them out to everyone you meet!

The author states in his opening paragraph of the book, "It's not about religion, it's about truth." The author goes on to explain his purpose for writing the book being that the, "…objective evidence must be considered in order to make an informed decision." Otherwise believing something because your parents believe it, relying on emotions or believing something to be true because you believe it to be true does not make it true; this is called "blind faith," as the author emphatically states. The facts must be examined and as the author continues to write, "Every person deserves at least the chance to examine the facts and make an informed decision."

Compelling, powerful and filled with common sense this book is packed with undeniable factual and scientific basis that clearly state the case for Christianity and why, if you believe or not, the Bible is true for you. Initially, and ingeniously, using the analogy of the law of gravity, the author catches the attention of the reader by stating that the law of gravity is true for everyone whether you have faith in gravity or not; gravity is true for everyone.

In much the same way, the author points the reader to the facts with an easy to read, fast-paced book that examines what truth is, and how best to look at the objective evidence. Clearly and concisely, this book also takes a look at apologetics, as well as the scientific evidence for creation, thereby dispelling the common lies and myths about the universe simply by examination of the evidence. In today's confusing world of many religions the author offers clarity for the reader. While many people believe whatever they are told or that what they believe is truth with no evidence to support that belief, this book urges the reader to base their beliefs on that which is truth and the evidence first before making a decision

This book is real, interesting, states the truth and will give many the knowledge they need to make an informed decision. Written by a man who is truly concerned about your future, a true evangelist at heart, the author wants the readers to know the truth and encourages the reader to make a decision based on truth. A highly recommended read for unbelievers, atheists, skeptics, scientists, evolutionists, and Christians alike. Know the facts, read this book!

Be sure to visit the author's website for unbelievable pricing including free E-Book information.

"Triumph Through Trial, A Story of Renewal" by award winning Christian author Theresa Franklin is an endearing story of the Owens family who went from discord, contention and strife to a new life full of renewal and triumph. Romans 8:28 states (NIV), "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." We can rest assured that even though there are trials, tragedies and hardships in life, if we live our life according to God's plans and purposes, He will work everything out in our life for good. Get ready to sit down, relax and enjoy this beautifully written book full of hope, encouragement and faith through the story of one family that overcame life's adversities through oneness in Christ.

Author, Theresa Franklin does a wonderful job in administering to the heart of families and encouraging families to stick together in love through this fictional short story. We all know what our lives look from the outside. But when we examine our family life from the inside, more than we like to admit, one will find dysfunction in the home. When we come to a place of acknowledging our sins and confessing them to God, God can work on our behalf. The author asks these important questions and urges us all to spend, "…time in front of God's mirror and try to see what those who know you best actually see? Are you a Christian? Have you accepted Christ as your savior?" In that, the author is asking, are you walking the walk and talking the talk? So many people profess to be Christians, but as Christians we should be exhibiting love, respect and service to our families in the home as well. If not, this book will lead the way to a new path of wholeness in Christ for families.

Driven by emotions, control, negativity, judgment and perfectionism, Cynthia is in complete denial of her behavior towards her family members. Severely affected, the husband is miserable, and her children avoid her as much as possible. Inevitably when there is dysfunction in the home, the author states, the stress can be measured in emotional and physical illnesses. Although the book is a fictional story, the author has described a very real and believable picture of how life is in our own families sometimes. The Owens family is torn from the inside out, due to stresses from the contention and discord caused by one family member suffering from deep emotional wounds caused from her own dysfunctional childhood.

This book is truly a blessing to families and the body of Christ. The author, through the use of scriptures and examples of family life, paints a wonderful picture of how life can be through the love and redemption of Jesus Christ. The author promotes family in this story of healing and encourages others, that "…love covereth a multitude of sins." Families will find solace and comfort through this book. Theresa's Franklin's writing style flows smoothly making for an easy read, keeping the reader fully engaged. This book will minister to all families that are "less than perfect." A highly recommend, encouraging read that will impact others for Christ. God can work in any situation, as the author illustrates, even the impossible ones.

"Daydreams and Night Visions" is a unique collection of beautifully written Holy Spirit inspired prophetic poems, parables and revelations intertwined with author Charles Duane Henley's life testimony. In his book, the author leaves a legacy of eloquent and passion filled poetry that combines his own life experiences and the salvation, comfort and sweet mercies of the Lord Jesus Christ, his Savior. He openly confesses the sins, the trials and the experiences that led him away from Christ as a teen and gladly reveals an amazing journey that led him back into the arms of a loving Father in Heaven. Find encouragement, hope, comfort and faith through the pages of this book. The author's highest hope is that he may share the depth of the love Christ has for each one of us through his poetry and testimony.

As a child once on fire for the Lord, worldly temptations and lusts subtly led the author to a place of sin and addiction that he could never have imagined himself entrapped in. As the proverbial prodigal son, the author describes his amazing 4-day walk that led him back to Christ at a crucial point in his life. An amazing transformation took place on that day as, "The Lord raised me from the dead, " candidly states the author.

Anointed, filled with the Holy Ghost and on fire for the Lord, the author has captured his heart and visions from the Lord through prophetic poems and parables. Listing them in categories, he speaks of many to include his story of addiction, bondage to sin and the torment of his soul while trapped in these sins. The author describes the battle that had begun over his soul, while continuing to describe visions seen of the unseen realm behind the veil as the Lord revealed to him. Henley has also included revelation of the sixth seal in the Book of Revelation and of things to come, such as the rapture of the church. The author also shares the immense love of God through categories such as, "We're Not Alone" and "Wilderness Wanderings". As the author has openly shared, these writings and poems were written and inspired by the Holy Spirit. The author has put down on paper with his pen what the Holy Spirit laid upon his heart to write for the world to read and ponder in awe and faith.

This creative, awe-inspiring book will breath life into your soul as the beautiful poetry unfolds throughout the book. This work of creativity is a true gem, a magnificent work of the Lord, as it shares of Christ's saving grace and love throughout the book.

This book is a wonderful way to evangelize and share the love of Christ with others, especially loved ones walking far from Christ or those trapped in addiction or sin. Bringing hope, faith and encouragement, the words of this book will light a fire in the hearts of the readers for Christ and Him alone. "Daydreams and Night Visions" comes highly recommended - a magnificent and touching true life story of a man redeemed by Jesus Christ that will touch your heart and soul.

A highly recommended read - Proclaiming hope for the hopeless and giving others the encouragement that they may need to get through their own "trial", the author stands and proclaims that the justice of the Lord is near! Truly an inspiring life story!

The Power of Prayer

The subject of prayer to a modern day believer has been taken lightly. Few believe in the prevailing power of prayer. The fact remains that if we are to prevail in life, we must first prevail in prayer. Jacob was a good example, it was said of him that, "… as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. However, it is not enough just to pray. We must endeavour to pray rightly. This timely book by Brother Ayodeji Olusanmi set out the simplicity that is attached to the platforms which makes prayer work. This book will stop the cycle of unanswered prayer in your life. It has been written to enlighten us so as to actualize the immense potential that praying carries.

The word is still the same, "... The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working] James 5:16. AMP.

Come and discover who you are in Christ by coming to the One who can satisfy. This devotional is an empowering study of God's Word for the feminine heart, and so much more! Author Marsha Lenski offers a divine invitation through her book that is extended to women all over the world.

WWDKG is a call to all women to stand up and be counted to inherit their birthright as daughters of the Most High. Author, Marsha Lenski emphatically states, "There's a place in every woman's life where she deserves a standing ovation." By passionately taking hold of God's promises through the scriptures, the Author encourages readers to look forward to their future by looking towards their Father in Heaven, who only wants the best for them. As the Author states, we are "Daddy's Girls" and accordingly, "We are entitled to only the best." This devotional is for any woman or group searching to know God more intimately and to find true purpose in life as a daughter of the King.

As a woman in the Kingdom of God, you have an invitation to come and "touch the hem of Jesus' garment" and walk into Kingdom destiny. "You'll never be the same again or want to settle for anything less." Come discover that you have a place, a hope and a bright future with One who offers destiny to you in His Kingdom. Author Marsha Lenski invites you on a powerful, faith-filled, divine journey to encounter the Lord of lords and the King of kings.

This book will encourage you to lay down all your burdens, failures, shortcomings and come to the One who truly loves you like no other. He has the power to save and give you true freedom like you have never envisioned.

Delight in the pages, as Author Marsha Lenski, with her 25 years of experience in ministry, takes the reader on a faith-filled journey that absolutely, undeniably encourages the reader to "Believe" in Him and His Promises. This book will open your heart to the joyful and triumphant expectation of uncovering a destiny that you have been born for and to answer the call in a time such as this in the Kingdom of God.

No one can offer a love so unconditionally like this…all others are counterfeit, compared to the riches of His Kingdom. Come discover who you are Women of God and step into the path of destiny created for you and only you, as unique as you are!

From Pastor and Author Olabode Ososami, comes a powerful new book, Perfect Fall Wedding-The Coming of Christ. This book considers the metaphor of "marriage" as a foretelling of the coming Royal marriage that is to come between the Bride of Christ and the Messiah, Christ. This event in history, as the book states, is ushered in by the Rapture of the Saints. Some may scoff at this teaching, for many scoffers will come, but for those who "believe" in the Lord and His Second Coming, many will be implored to read this teaching to gain knowledge of what is to come in the End Times. Rich in Scripture, therefore aligning with the Word of God, this book is a must-read for every Christian and unbeliever alike.

As the author so eloquently writes, The Jewish Feast of Trumpets is one of the first of the fall feasts in the Jewish tradition/religion. The author describes this event in this book as it was meant to foretell of a coming fall wedding as it relates to the Bride of Christ and to the Messiah, Jesus Christ. The question for today is, are you ready?

Many are asking "Who" is the Bride of Christ, "Who" is the Bridegroom and when and how will He come? This book answers all those questions and more. Author Olabode Ososami carefully lays out a firm foundation that is rich with the Holy Scriptures. If you are looking to deepen your knowledge and understanding of the End Times, the Return of Christ and how it relates to you, then this book is a must have.

First by considering the Covenant and Betrothal to the King of kings, Author Olabode Ososami describes what it means be "set apart" and "who" the Bride of Christ is. The author continues this fascinating read by discussing the gifts of the betrothed, engagement to Royalty; the finished work of Christ on the Cross; the struggles, battles and victories the Saint will experience; the preparation of the Saints and what the Riches of the Bride are. Then coming to a glorious climax with the returning of the Bridegroom and what that means for us today in relating to the "signs of the times" known as "birth pains"; the parable of the Ten Virgins and what that means to the average Christian. The book thoroughly discusses each subject and supports all the teachings by use of Scripture throughout the book. Lastly, the book concludes with the "Royal Wedding" to come between those "chosen" by Christ and what happens next, to include the millennium (1000 year reign of Christ on planet earth) and also answers those tough questions like what is the destiny of the lost? At the end of each chapter a list of pertinent prayers are listed. In the back of the book a study guide for the individual and groups is also provided.
Enlightening, fascinating and divinely inspired, this book is also a wake-up call for those who consider themselves "Christians" and a warning against stagnant and passive Christianity. Many are asleep in their faith and need to wake up to heed the call that Christ is coming soon.

This is a highly-recommended read for both the believer, the unbeliever and anyone seeking a deeper relationship and understanding of God's perfect will, plans and purposes in the life of every believer and in the End Times.

Destiny Awaits Her!

Prepare to experience something beyond the ordinary! A woman wanting to touch the hem of Jesus' garment will be swept away on an incredible journey of discovery and love. Pause, soak in and hold tightly to the message from Christian author and speaker Marsha Lenski in her inspiring new book WWDKG, Woman With Destiny in the Kingdom of God. Curl up in that comfy chair with this wonderful new devotional and study of God's Word for the feminine heart!

"There's a place in every woman's life where she deserves a standing ovation," Marsha declares from the very first word. Every woman deserves to know a loving God agrees and calls her forward in a burst of heavenly applause. WWDKG is a lighthouse to wholeness and the secret that needs to come out: she is a gift to her world!

WWDKG speaks to a woman's Kingdom destiny and how it is designed with the delicacy of a fine crystal frame meant to hold the original artwork of her legacy. To God, her destiny will be as unique as the prints from the touch her fingertips leave behind, but it won't be an accident. Here a woman learns anew how to let God love her through Jesus Christ. Here is the devotional for one woman or for many to read together again and again.

A woman will have many encounters. God wants to be her # 1 encounter! WWDKG is a gift to women who want God's best for them and those with whom they share their lives. Lavish this one gift upon yourself or a lady in your life you want to applaud and encourage. No woman who reads it will be the same or ever want to settle again for anything less.

Marsha Lenski is the author of two previous books, From Sinking Sand and Pure Intentions. Each is filled to the brim with heart-passion to propel her readers to an appreciation for their God-given uniqueness and call. Her amazing and sometimes startling transparency will stretch your thinking and open your mind to the possibilities for healing, forgiveness and personal growth in spite of tremendous odds and impossibilities.

Marsha Lenski has opened her life on national television interviews that include "Life Today" with James and Betty Robison and CBN's 700 Club. In these interviews Marsha discusses her own moral failure described in her book From Sinking Sand, a must-read for the brokenness this country knows very well. She candidly reveals how God led her from the self-destructive blindness of adultery to the healing path of redemption and true self-discovery in the love of Jesus. Pat Robertson told audiences, "Marsha Lenski's story has touched a nerve in this nation." A courageous read you won't want to miss!

Women stand in line to hear Marsha share her love and passion, encouraging each to let God love her. One woman testified to the work of God in Marsha's life: "Marsha is a unique blend of steel and velvet. The Lord has developed in her the ability to be strong when needed, yet also to be a source of comfort and compassion. I have watched her in joyous times and in brutal times, and witnessed first-hand that dignity, courage and integrity are attributes of her character. Whether you encounter Marsha as an individual, in a group or in her writings, everyone leaves knowing they've had a Divine encounter."

With more than 25 years in ministry, Marsha's passion and message is one of hope and encouragement. She delights in having a part of God's work to empower others through the love of Jesus Christ.

Hailing from central Illinois, Marsha is available for speaking nationwide. You are invited to visit her website at Marsha Lenski or at Marsha Lenski Ministries and learn more about her books and ministry.

I recently learned about Christian Book Marketing through an internet search for book reviewers. As a new author, I am careful about who I partner with for marketing my books. Smitty answered my questions quickly and patiently. Before I even purchased the package, he was helping me with my blog. From the beginning, I felt that he had my best interest at heart. He went way beyond what was promised and expected. He reviewed my books as a professional and included his 6 year old's opinion of the children's books. You just can't get a better endorsement than that. I am very grateful that I found him and plan to use his service in the future.

My Sons Are Jewish - The Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith by Author Paula Clayman

ISBN# 978-0-7684-3906-9
Adapted from book review

Author Paula Clayman releases My Sons Are Jewish - The Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith. A must-read for every Christian practicing the Judeo-Christian faith. Enlightening, unique and enriching this book will not only lay the foundation for the Christian faith, but gives insight and thorough understanding of the Jewish people and their prominence in history. With this book you will find an increased faith in God, a deeper appreciation for God and His love for the Jewish people. A profound appreciation for His chosen people is also keenly acquired through this informative book.

Author Paula Clayman invites the reader on a journey to discover, not only the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and answers the question of "Who is a Jew", but additionally, she delivers a noteworthy book by giving the reader God's plan of salvation to humanity through the Jewish people. Without the knowledge of the love of God towards the Jewish people and knowledge of the covenant given to Abraham and how all people of the world be blessed through that promise, recognition of who the Jewish people are would be severely lacking. Distinctive and impressive, this book is an absorbing and fascinating easy-read that gives a comprehensive history of the Jewish heritage and lineage. Without this heritage and lineage of the Jewish people, it would be easy to miss the love, dedication and reason to pray for Israel and why God's chosen people are at the very core of Christianity.

Rich with scripture and history, the author masterfully weaves the divine thread that connects Christian believers and Jews alike to the Messiah thereby establishing the Jewish lineage and heritage. The book begins first with a detailed biblical overview of God's plan of salvation to humanity through Adam. However, God's plan of salvation did not stop with the fall of Adam in the garden, but continued through to Noah, then through Abraham and on to Judah and then ultimately through David and the Davidic throne of David.

This book is paramount in understanding the role that the Jewish people play in God's plan of salvation. The author shares her vast knowledge of the subject of the Jewish lineage through many years of studying the scriptures, The Torah and many other books. She shares openly with the readers that her husband and sons are also Jewish which led her on this journey to discover their Jewish roots and hers as well, being a Christian.

This book is also a very powerful scriptural teaching that gives biblical insight into the truth of God's word, His love of His chosen people and how all people of the world are blessed through that Promise given to Abraham. A highly recommended must-read book for every Christian or Jewish person seeking a deeper relationship and walk with God.

Print On Demand Publishing, Book Marketing And Book Sales for The Christian Author

2011-08-31T23:51:00.001-07:00

Advertise Your Book On 100 Separate Sites

If you have published a book with a print on demand publisher or have self published through some other means, you will soon find out what all authors soon learn. That most publishers publish and print books, but perform very little author promotions and book marketing for the author.

Sure you can order the standard book marketing packages and get your books in the online data base and even on Amazon. However, there are millions of books in those data basis and listed on endless online bookstore data basis. One question. What are the chances of someone magically searching for you as a author by your name, your book by it's title or the ISBN number? It rarely happens. The truth and reality is that you must promote yourself as a author and market your book to perspective book buyers if you want to sell books.

There are way too many struggling authors that have fallen for the big number catches. Get your book listed on 25,000 online bookstores. Sounds impressive and actually the numbers are, but again the problem is that there you are amidst the millions of other authors and books and no one knows who you are or the title of your book.

You must create and find ways to create strategic expanded marketing if you want to find success which leads to the next problem, which is, that most authors and writers are not marketing professionals or online specialists.

I am amazed at all the posts, interactions and comments that authors place in author sites hoping to sell copies of their books, to whom, but other authors. Just imagine if one took all that time, effort and interaction and used targeted marketing. That's not to say that the interactions are a waste of time because there are great things to be learned by other authors.

If you are looking for some strategic expanded author promotions and book marketing contact us. We can create a author promotions and marketing plan that will help you get the exposure you need while expanding your online presence and reach into additional communities, networks and social communities. Then maybe some book lovers will know who you are, the title of your book and how to find you.

Santa's Birthday Gift for Children by Sherrill S. Cannon

2011-08-23T18:24:00.000-07:00

Santa’s Birthday Gift is an attempt to include Santa in the meaning of Christmas. (After I read a story of the nativity to my young granddaughter, she looked at me and asked “But where’s Santa?”) The editor who critiqued this book wrote: “What a cute story! I know there are many stories about how Santa came into the picture, but this is a delightful idea behind the gifts at Christmas.” The story is best for ages 3-10, to be read to children who still believe in Santa! This book received a 2011 National Indie Excellence Finalist Award, and is a 2011 Readers Favorite Finalist. ~ Sherrill Cannon

Other books by Sherrill S. Cannon include:

Don't Forget Daddy by Theresa Franklin is a delightful book to read to any young child experiencing change in the family dynamics whether it is through divorce, remarriage or the death of a parent, especially in respect to loss of a father.

Author Theresa Franklin, writes with heartfelt compassion by addressing these delicate subjects in a creative way that will help identify any feelings that a child may be holding on to in their emotions. By opening up the lines of communication, this book will allow a child going through similar circumstances to be able to share their feelings. This book offers wonderful solutions to any young child on how to cope with the change in the family.

The short story opens with Ashley, a young child, sitting and conversing with a man who has become mommy's friend. She likes him, but does not know how to feel about him because she doesn't want to forget her daddy. With colorful illustrations and an easy to read dialogue your child will be able to understand this book as Ashley accepts her new daddy, and her new life with wonderful excitement. We find out through the book that change is okay and can be a good thing for all the parties involved.

With the divorce rate being close to 50 percent these days, many young children have to adapt to the loss of a parent and/or a new stepparent. Change is not easy, especially when you don't understand why it is happening. To a child this can be devastating and as parents it is imperative that these issues are addressed along with any feelings a child might have towards the change in the family dynamics. This book will help you do just that in a loving and compassionate way.

Don't forget Daddy is also a recommended book for parents or physiologists that want to open the dialogue between parent and child. This book can be used as a tool for parents or professionals to address a child's feelings whatever they may be towards the change in the family dynamics. It would be a perfect book for the mother who is remarrying with young children. I read it to my 6 year old daughter and all she could say was, "Again, again!" She loved it and I look forward to more books from this talented author that address issues with children and their feelings!

The Victorious Life of the Christian - Who's On Board

10.0 stars on a scale of 10.0 stars

“Who’s on Board?” by Dr. Joseph Hyskell Jr. is an inspiring and scripturally based bible study. The author discusses twelve checkpoints that help the reader to understand what it is to be a “born-again” believer. Filled with scripture application, Author Dr. Joseph Hysekll Jr., has carefully laid down a solid foundation built upon the Holy Scriptures. The twelve checkpoints then can be discussed in a small group setting or read individually. The author indicates that many profess to be a Christian, but their life does not demonstrate a life lead by the “indwelling” of the Holy Spirit. This book will identify the “born-again” believer and demonstrates the difference between knowing about God, and really knowing Christ in the power of His resurrection.

An exciting and short read, this book is an excellent ministering tool that can be used to bring others into the Kingdom of God. This study, as suggested by the author, is recommended for groups not bigger than ten to keep the teachings on a very personal level. Written with much wisdom from scripture and from a man that has over 52 years in ministry as a Pastor, teacher and missionary, Dr. Joseph Hyskell Jr.s’ teaching has captured the essence of what it means to be “born-again.”

Section II of the book includes uplifting and inspirational poetry by the author written all to glorify the love and power of God. This encouraging selection of poetry will be sure to touch your heart, just as the Psalms identify with the condition of one’s heart and emotions. A true writer at heart, Dr. Joseph Hyskell Jr. captures the wisdom and love of the scripture through sharing his brilliantly poignant poetry. This section is a testament to the love and truth of the scriptures and is a true gem, one that shall be treasured by readers inspired by poetry.

The ideals set forth by Author Joseph Hyskell Jr. have been tested and tried by the author and proven to be overwhelmingly victorious. Become a true believer and inspire others to have their lives changed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This book, with much prayer as the author notes, will help you do just that.

Reviewed by: Christian Book Reviews
10.0 on a scale of 10.0 stars

From Author Donna Boddy comes Angel With A Mission, a captivating and inspiring story of true love, tragedy, loss, and the restoration, forgiveness and redemption that is found in Christ. This intriguing novel offers immense hope in the midst of overcoming great adversity.

Let Author, Donna Boddy, transport you back in time, as she invites you to take a journey through life with young Kata. A woman who had everything this world had to offer. A promising career and fame, a loving husband and family, wealth, a high place in society, stability and security, but as life would have it sometimes these things can change rather abruptly. And although life is ever changing, what do you do about it when you come to the end of yourself and life as you once knew it has forever changed?

A triumphant story of restoration, this novel follows Kata during some of history’s most memorable moments to include war torn Germany, during the Great War. Kata weathers the dismal storms of many of these challenges and life’s tragedies, as we all have, but comes to find a greater hope. This is an overwhelming, emotional and delightful novel that will have you fully engaged. You will not be able to put this book down with this powerful novel that will have you sometimes crying and grabbing for a tissue, as you follow Kata through her life’s winding path.

Author Donna Boddy’s writing style flows so well and eloquently, it’s like you’re right there with Kata in each scene. This is a wonderful novel of a life interrupted by betrayal, war, sickness, death and tragedy, yet offers true biblical inspiration and strength to the trials and tribulations that we can all face in life. Relying on powerful spiritual truths, the author will lift you up and encourage you in your faith as you follow Kata on her life’s journey where you might find your own story within the pages of this exhilarating novel. None of us are exempt from life’s tragedies and tribulations. We all have our own grief to bear and burdens to carry. This novel will point you to the One that cares for you. Truly an encouraging, captivating, faith builder!

This book would make a wonderful ministry tool to those who are weary or to those that do not know Christ. One can look at your own life through the pages of this intricate novel and find that there is a familiar sense that we’ve all been there before. This novel will leave you with an undeniable and unshakable faith. A true mini-series in the making and I will be looking forward to the next sequel!

THEOLOY 101 In Bite Size Pieces

The word theology tends to lead people to think that it is only meant for seminarian scholars; however, the word speaks for itself by the sole definition of "the study of God's Word." Theology 101 takes a fresh look at God's Power, Character, Love, Nature, and what the finished work of Christ meant to the world in bite size portions. It offers scripturally based truths of some of the riches of His Divine Grace that include answers to thought provoking questions such as what is predestination; who are the chosen; the called, and the elect. The author uses everyday language to explain what it means to be justified, reconciled, forgiven, and offers a clear and easy to understand explanation of why practicing merited grace contradicts Christ's finished work on the cross.

Joyce Meyer, Eat The Cookie, Buy The Shoes.

Engrained in our culture is the belief that unbending discipline is the only sure way to success. You must go to the gym five times a week, never order the dessert, and don't even think about buying that dress you keep staring at in the store window. Breaking from such a regimented lifestyle is a sign of weakness, right? Wrong!-and Joyce wants to tell us why...

Though setting rules in our lives are important, it's just as important that we break them from time-to-time. Structure is a powerful tool, but when diverging from your own goals is seen as catastrophic, it can have a hugely negative effect on us. Balance is a core value in life and every once in awhile we deserve to indulge in a guilty pleasure or two. So don't feel bad about straying from your goals every once-in-awhile and in fact, embrace it: eat the cookie and buy the shoes!

Life by Charles R. Swindoll

2010-04-01T11:47:00.000-07:00

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”

After a near fatal automobile accident, she climbs from the wreckage unscathed. Shortly thereafter, God begins to reveal her past. Chronicled in a series of stories, her life unfolds through a long journey; a pathway that unveils many secrets that not even her children had been told. Memories, dreams and flashbacks of her mother's abuse at the hands of her stepfather, a rape during adolescence, her brother's stormy lifestyle, and the agony of a marriage that was destroyed by her ex-husband, Naman's infidelity and substance abuse, all return to torment her.

The Truth About Marketing Your Book

2009-11-06T20:34:00.001-08:00

If you've published a book with a POD publisher, half the work is done. Now you have to market your books and that is just as important as writing and publishing a book.

Maybe you've paid for the 25,000 online bookstore promotion package. OK, cool your in the data base, along with millions of other author's and books. Maybe you've paid for the national and international promotions package. That's great, now your again among the millions and millions of online books.

Have you Googled your books title, or maybe your name and found that your book is found on the search engines? That's great, however in all honesty does anyone other than you, your publisher and a few friends know the name of your book or who you are? Let's be honest, if your a first time author or a unknown author, who's going to search for your book by it's title or your name as the author?

As a author, you must market yourself and your book. That's where having a author media site becomes your starting point. You can showcase your book, a description of your book, your author description, some interesting things about yourself, share important links and share your contact information and where and how book lovers can order your book.

Provided that you can order your books from your publisher at a author's discount. Then you can sell them right from you're authors site and the profits by far exceed royalties.

Your author's media site becomes your online worldwide business card. It is where people can find you, read about your book, you as the author, about local book signings and whatever other interesting information and content you provide. Without your own personal website, or authors blog, your just another book and author among the millions and millions found online.

Some author's join every book club they can find, sign every guest book they can and join other author communities hoping that this will bring book sales. However, in the end, this usually proves to be a lot of work with very little results.

You love writing and that's because deep within you is this creative DNA. You have this ability to write stories from start to the end, and see things unfolding while your writing.

Success Doesn't Fall Of Trees

2009-10-21T16:36:00.000-07:00

Success is not something that falls off trees, it's something that is planted one seed at a time, watered and produces a harvest in the right seasons.

For the quick path is not always the right path and success comes through hardwork, effort and patience.

Living Life As A Fantasy

2009-10-12T21:26:00.001-07:00

Life is far from a fantasy or a movie where you can write the script as you go along. However and again for some, life is exactly that. A well scripted fantasy or dramatic movie that is constantly unfolding and they are the director, play write, author and the main character. I guess that's OK for some.

Let me encourage you that while your enjoying life regardless of what chapter or scene may be unfolding. Apply wisdom, not merely as words, but rather as a path. Have balance, not merely as sayings, but well applied.

Truth is, deep within you are great things. It's just sometimes you have to get the weeds out, so the fruit full things come forth.

Stop, Stop, Stop

2009-10-04T09:35:00.000-07:00

Does someone have you offended? Has someone got to you with their words, deeds or actions? Usually when this happens we find ourselves frustrated, bitter, and even angry. Before we know it our moods have turned for the worse, we become grumpy and difficult to be around. Stop!, stop!, stop!.

Your just ruining your day. Chances are the person that offended you is having a great day and time.

Cookies, Milk, Cartoons & Chocolate Sundays

2009-09-23T20:27:00.001-07:00

Dad, Dad, can we have cookies and milk and watch a cartoon? Oh come on dad, please? Fifteen minutes later, Dad, Dad, can I have ice cream and watch some more cartoons? Oh, please Dad. Ten minutes later, Dad, Dad, can I have some smarties? Please, please! please! dad!

Have you ever been there? If you have children, I bet you have. It's like where do they put it all? How is it possible to eat and eat and eat and still be skinny. Kid's eat and eat and eat. They also play, and play and play and run, and jump and play and run some more. I'm getting tired just thinking about it.

I don't know which is harder. Getting older or being a father. Both are definitely challenging at times. Well, I'm off, we are now having chocolate sundays with cherries (multiple) on top. I guess I should enjoy this, before long she will be asking for a new car.

Brain Virus's

The mind is like a computer. If one's not careful the data corrupts and overloads the system. Next thing you know the trash can has your name on it and the mouse won't work, and your keyboard gets caked with junk. One good look in the mirror and you realize your screen's got a virus.

Be careful what you download into your brain.

Spoiled Rotten Eggs

2009-09-11T14:54:00.001-07:00

What aroma do you put off. Do you have a sweet loving aroma about you. Are you sincere, truthful, loving, compassionate or do you smell liked rotten spoiled eggs? An egg yoke is protected by a shell. In side that shell is where the yoke is found. What's beneath you're shell?

We should all have a wonderful beautiful aroma about us, and not that of spoiled rotten eggs.

That Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind Additude

2009-09-10T12:53:00.001-07:00

Have you ever encountered a situation when someone owed you money that they promised to give to you, yet you never received it. Or maybe someone promised to take care of another matter, yet that too never came to pass. Next think you know, the person does everything they can to avoid you. That's because they don't want to be held accountable.

What the don't realize it that they are accountable and their actions or shall we say non actions will catch up with them and many times they will be multiplied bakc upon them in other areas of their life. You see, we all reap what we sow and if we sow dishonesty and broken promises, we will reap the fruit of such things.

When Peace & Rest Cease

2009-09-09T15:35:00.001-07:00

Have you ever noticed how sometimes people's true colors shine through and the colors are the complete opposite of what they wanted you and others to think about them? Only to realize that you have been handed a continuous flow of deception and lies? It amazes me how some people use and abuse others basically to make up for their own miserable worthless lives. Many times you can even see the fruits of such people in their children do to the dysfunctional family and dysfunctional family lifestyle. It's sad because their lives are filled with endless scares, headaches, and metal illnesses and the affects upon the children lead to emotional problems, anger management problems, guilt, shame, embarrassments, and they become disconnected from reality.

Know this, they do not go un noticed and while they think they have pulled the wool over the eye's of many, in time, they will be exposed. You see, those who cast evil and wickedness upon others in the end become ensnared in their own ways. Life becomes endlessly painful for them, they continue to encounter emotional, mental and even health problems that soon overtake them. It's really sad to see a life and the lives of others waste away and decay like that. It's a long, slow and very painful death, yet death is withheld from them.

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.

When The Catch Only Yields Sardines

2009-09-08T15:31:00.001-07:00

There are big fish and small fish in the oceans of life. Many times we set out for the big catches and end up with sardines rather than tuna. Yet even as a child we must learn how to catch the minnows before we attempt to catch the big ones. We learn from the process of starting with small things when we are small. Sometimes we see ourselves as giants with great capabilities. Sometimes we see ourselves as that which we are not or shall I say have not arrived at or accomplished yet. Now don't get me wrong, that's not to say that we all can't find and become successful. However it is to say that we must work at success, earn success, cultivate success and become successful before we lay claim to it. Oh, and by the way, quitting is not in the formula.

Character, Maturity & Perspective

2009-09-06T22:40:00.001-07:00

It takes character and maturity to put things into reality and perspective. Without such, it's like sailing without a sail and with no wind.

Keeping The Flame Burning

2009-09-05T16:58:00.001-07:00

Sometimes we all seem to give up and quit just a tad too soon. It's like the sardines vs. the tuna. We plan our game plan, put things into motion and then right about the time it's time to set sail, we give in and quit. Sad. Other times we do all our homework, put our plans into motion and start bragging about our accomplishments before we win the race only to give up because something fell short of our desires. The reality is that success is staying the course and finishing what we set out to do.

Now who would want a bucket of sardines when you could have some huge nets filled with tuna? Imagine the captain of a ship setting sail for a big catch, for tons of tuna only to set anchor just outside the break water. Can you see the sea gulls feasting on the spoiled sardines? Many times that is exactly what we do. Rather than staying the course and sometimes even facing our fears, we throw in the towel.

There is more to writing sayings that pushing them or selling them to others. You must live them. Otherwise your flame burns out.

Imagination Checked

2009-09-03T13:19:00.000-07:00

I encountered a dream last January. There was this man and he appeared to be like a professor. At least he thought he was. He had all his books and papers in front of him on a table. He was speaking as if to a large crowd. In front of the man were rows and rows of chairs. The chairs were all empty, yet the man continued with his speech as if all the chairs had people sitting in them. The man was speaking and teaching to empty chairs. It was only a dream.

What colors does your character and personality give off? Are you a beautiful rainbow or a headache? Are your colors full or transparent? Do people like you or put up with you? Do people enjoy you or walk away wondering if you're all there. Do you see yourself as beautiful colors while others see you as colorless?

Too Many Fiction Movies

2009-08-31T16:04:00.001-07:00

Do you know him? He's full of idea's. He's a master at sharing things. He has volumes of great ideas, endless projects on the board, and he's constantly thinking up new ones. The wheels of his mind are full of great accomplishments. The racing thoughts fuel his very existence and he sounds off at every listening ear the very thoughts that consume him. Like a speeding racing thought, the next thoughts come into play, and the world is his play ground.

Success escapes him as fear of failure takes rule over him. For it's easier to create another new idea than it is to complete the ones already on the table. Like a frog leaping from leap to leap, as the battlefield of the mind unfolds.

He's an imaginary idealist just waiting for the next chapter of his mind to unfold ...

Deeper Waters

2008-12-30T14:27:00.000-08:00

In the summer of 1905, on the shores of central California, the fishing town of Monterey, suffered a very great economic blow.

Monterey is a picturesque community, 100 miles south of San Francisco. It is situated on the great Monterey Bay.

The Monterey Bay, gave to the city of Monterey all the bounty of the ocean. For decades Monterey fishermen brought back the fruit of the sea, the fish, that fed millions of people in America.

The backbone of this great fishery, and therefore of the economy in Monterey, was the annual catch of sardines.

These sardines were captured, brought to port, and then to Cannery Row – a row of fish canning operations lining the Monterey beach. There, of course, the sardines were packed into silver cans, wrapped in a red and black paper seal declaring them to be high-quality sardines from Monterey, California. They were then shipped throughout America and the world.

And the economy was good.

But, in the summer of 1905, something terrible happened. An economic disaster of unprecedented proportions happened to this bustling fishing town.

The disaster was this: the fishermen and their many boats, and many employees, simply over fished the sardine population. They did it to such a degree, that the sardines couldn’t reproduce their stock – and, suddenly, sardines simply disappeared from the fisherman’s nets! They were gone! And with them, were also, apparent to everyone, the good times for people in Monterey.

But – and this is a very important but – this was not the end of the story. A very great and ominous disaster had happened on their watch, but now something wondrous and hopeful, also took place on their watch.

Here is what, actually, happened: first, the people of Monterey and their churches, prayed. Now, whether you believe in prayer or not, that is secondary to the story. My duty is just to give hope and tell you how the story turned out, in actual history.

Most of the ship owners in Monterey doubled as their own ship captains. There were no big corporate fleets. It was mostly private fishermen who had built their fishing business to the level of having a ship or two, and going out daily and bringing the fish back. They worked hard at it, and they became better and better at what they did, and therefore became more and more successful.

But the sea had always helped them. Now that the sardines were gone, what next? What would happen to the economy, to the ship owners and captains, and to all the crews and their families?

The captains of the ships talked among themselves. As they talked, they told tales that they had heard long ago, about schools of great fish, that a Monterey fisherman and his ship and crew had once found.

But, these great fish, which were only known by the thin thread of perhaps a tall tale, were caught as far out as 200 miles from the shore! No Monterey fisherman and his crew, at least for decades, had gone beyond 20 miles!

No one ever dared to go that far! It had not yet entered the imagination of the people.

They had the vessels for it, and the crews. Now what they needed was some bold and intrepid captains, who would dare to go farther into deeper waters, than anyone ever had before.

And, in a true to life story, several believing captains, with their valiant ships and willing crews, set out to find out if the tales of these great fish had any truth to them.

They went fifty miles. Then eighty miles. Then over a hundred miles. But approximately one hundred and fifty miles out, they saw “boiling water” – a strange occurrence on the surface of the water that far out in the middle of the sea.

The captains and their crews, decided to fish these “boiling waters.” For their efforts, they began to pull in yellowfin tuna anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds! And there was no end to them!

Now, dear reader, understand that until this date in history, no one in the entire world had ever eaten tuna. Well, maybe some long ago sea captain and his crew had. But for the most part, tuna had never been known before. It had never been seen or eaten!

So, the intrepid sea captains and their fishermen returned home to Monterey with great good news – and a big load of great fish!

Think about it. Sardines were only 4 to 8 inches long, and now the fishermen replaced them with tuna that were 4-8 feet long! The sardines weighed a half-pound at best, and the tuna weighed up to three hundred pounds. In fact, later, as fishermen found the will to go farther, they caught bluefin tuna, that weighed up to 1500 pounds!

Thus, by being willing to go further than anyone had gone before ,and by choosing to act in new ways rather than just sit and suffer, although the economy went down with the sardines – now it went up with the tuna! Following what might have been just a tall story by an old salt, turned out to give the people of Monterey a true, and much greater, story. They introduced tuna and tuna fishing to the world. Their ships got bigger. Their crews got paid more. More tourists came to Monterey. The little bustling fishing didn’t go down with the sardines!

Somehow, the town, its people, and its economy all got a new lease on life. They grew. They prospered. And – they fed the whole world to a far greater degree.

In that summer day of 1905, when the sardine stock fell and the bottom dropped out of the sardine business, it shook everybody up. But, they said their prayers, decided to go further than ever before, chose to “seek a greater story” – and, however combined elements made it happen – tuna, much larger than sardines, and a tuna catch, much greater than the total sardine catch had ever achieved, was brought into the history, and to the palates, of the entire world.

The economy recovered and boomed.

My friends, could it be possible that right now, this very day, that even as you experience the loss of something you long felt secure and that you built your hopes on, just a little farther ahead, with a little willingness to keep your chin and morale up, exploring a little further, pursuing a greater, not lesser, story for you and yours, we might ourselves see our “sardines” not just gone, but our own kind of new, far greater, “tuna” right in front of us replacing our loss with something much better?

I believe that people with the American dream, don’t just get better dreams. They get a better story. It comes complete with the faith, the new vision, the will to try, the solid meat of the fish, the adventures, and the tale to tell all our children about.

The measure of something great is that greater things still come out of it.

Say your prayers, stoke the embers of your dreams and visions. Listen to wise stories. Make your minds and ships go further into the ocean of the Spirit – and I believe either you yourself, or some intrepid captains, are going to come back with the equivalent of boatloads of silver tuna in our time – together with directions how you can get a lot more of them.
