War! Poverty! The longing to love and be loved! History is full of human drama. In this scrapbook of stories we find characters who face these age old challenges and many others as they struggle to create a life for themselves and their families. There is humour, there is tragedy, and there is a sense of authenticity that can only come from a story that is based on truth. So, grab a cup of coffee. Find a comfortable seat and let these voices from the past tell you about life in their small town.

This is a collection of three books.Book 1. The Decline of the Church. What about Christians and racism? Doesn't God want ya'll ta be rich and famous? Don't all those Holy books teach basically the same thing? Why are Christians so mean? Who was Jesus really? What is the point of the Church anyway? All these questions and more are explored in this short but hard-hitting collection of essays, stories, and poems.Book 2. Lessons Learned in the Mourning. When the valley is darker than it has ever been...when we lose someone we loved, what can we learn? Lessons Learned in the Mourning explores that question. Born from personal experiences, this book dives deep into the issues of loss, yet it also finds hope there.Book 3. Beauty in a Scorched Land. A journey of stories, pictures, and reflections inspired by time spent working at a medical mission in Africa. What is the place of a Christian in a world full of poverty and struggle? This is a question that the authors have wrestled with and they share their reflections here.

What was that? That noise out there in the hallway? That high-pitched singing...do you hear it? It's coming closer. I don't know. Should we take a look? Hmmm...Perhaps some things are better left buried...then again...perhaps those things are the most interesting... What will we see as I pull open the door and peer out into that darkened hallway? Who knows. What we do know is that Phantoms is a collection of previously published science fiction, fantasy, and horror-themed poetry. The first-person tales, Devil in a Bottle, Personal Judas, Ol'Zeke, and Flirting With the Enemy are also included. With that said, let's open that door, shall we? I mean, what could go wrong? *** ...what was sleep is devoured by memory what was slumber overwhelmed by the delicate sound of thunder even as the blood moon is passing he begins writhing to the sound of a serpent hiss sleepless in his single bed remembering the burning the acid bite of the phantom's kiss...
