Any good commander will make certain that their soldiers have correct and ample intelligence about the battles they are preparing to fight.

I hope the listeners of my story will benefit from seeing a glimpse of how growing up poor can mold a person, as well as facing challenges in life. Working hard may be new to the current generation, at least not most had it the way I did growing up. It takes hard work to succeed in life. Hard work is honorable and builds character. The Bible says in Colossians 3:23, "Whatsoever you do, do it heartily as unto the Lord." In 2 Thessalonians 3:10, it says, "If any man will not work, neither should he be allowed to eat."

Why do we have the freedom to choose? What are the choices we make? Why do we make certain decisions? How do we reason and select or evaluate our choices to make life work for us? Or is it about us? Pro-Choice, Pro-God, Pro-Life: A Multiple-Choice Answer for a Humanity Question addresses these inquiries and others. Choice is a fundamental freedom in a free society as opposed to a dictatorship. Choice has always been a God-given ability for angelic beings and humans.

Here we find the roots of growing public resentment. Despite headlines heralding growth and prosperity, most Americans have fallen behind. They’re working harder year upon year not to get ahead but merely to stay apace. For them, the American dream appears to be slipping farther and farther away. Beneath the resentment is something else: The misleading statistics that shape our understanding of reality are steering powerful policymakers to make misguided decisions at the federal, state, and local levels alike. And, for most Americans, the results continue to be catastrophic.

Professor Lange, a world-renowned mathematician, and his father, a respected Baptist minister, lived in two very different worlds. One was a world of academia and science, the other of faith. Those worlds miraculously merged one fateful day when the father, in a desperate attempt to connect with his son, issued a challenge. Although skeptical, the professor agreed to test his father's claim that there were embedded codes in the original Hebrew version of the Old Testament that, when discovered, would reveal amazing details about significant events throughout history.

The book "RD'S REVENGE" came strictly from my imagination. I started the book as a Western, figuring that to be the easiest type of book for me to write. The plot of revenge and vengeance, came to me as I went along. I have no formal writing background; with the exception of a short course I took in creative writing. I have read a lot of books on a variety of subjects. The characters portrayed in the book comes only from my imagination. Some of the names I use are family members or people I know personally and have their consent to use their first and middle names.

A man endowed with divine wisdom once wrote, "The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars like well driven nails, given by one Shepherd." Embedded in the biblical narrative are five words bequeathed to the church by Jesus and the apostles that serve as goads motivating Christ's bride to fulfill her God given destiny. These five words represent the nexus of the Christian life as well as the tipping point between success or failure.

Some people described Jacob Gunn as being born with a chip on his shoulder. Throughout most of his childhood and all of his adult activities, Jacob held a disdain for the word “trust.” His life experiences caused him to believe trust was illusive or imaginary. He believes there are no half-truths or comparative truths, and truth is too often based on uneducated faith on words instead of actions. This story follows his perception and application of trust.

The majority of people in the world do not believe that there are actual demons in the world. They are around you in such large numbers that you would be scared to come out of your home and walk around. There is even a high percentage of people that identify themselves as Christians that don't believe they exist. They just believe that demons are a figurehead of evil used to scare you. Third world countries know more about demons than the civilized world. That statement tells you how much education we need on this subject.

One of the best ways to bring clarity to a written text when the meaning is not crystal clear is through the use of a picture illustration. The response, "Oh, now I understand," is often the result of a good picture illustration. It is normal to have questions or to have a certain amount of confusion when reading passages from the Bible. What many people are not aware of is that God has provided us with hundreds of these picture illustrations to help clarify what He is saying to us in His Word.
