As we have all gone through the trials and challenges the world experienced in recent years, I found myself in need of remembering principal teachings that could have the power to change my mental outlook and give me a better chance to see a hopeful future. So I began to compile quotes, scripture, and things I learned along the way so that some key component to my well-being could be instilled each day. The daily messages are often short but are meant as reminders of God's Word, His character, and His promises, which can elicit in us an increase of hope and faith and ability to listen to the still, small voice of the Holy Spirit. My prayer is that you will experience that increase in faith and hope and strengthen your resilience for the days ahead, to stay inspired, and to shine a light to those around you. You will find space on each page to write any ideas that may come to you as you read the message for the day. What do you need to remember?

Rose lived vivaciously in her own little world. No worries. No issues. No indication that things could go wrong until something happened that turned her world upside down. For the first time, she knew what it meant to feel awkward and to experience heartache and disappointment. If only she knew then, what she knows now, perhaps things would have been different for her.
Grammy's Comfy Couch is a heartwarming story about a special day between a grandmother and grandchild that will live in a child's memory forever.
It is a story about a twin boy and girl who go on many adventures with their dad. There is adventure of a different kind in an "all of a sudden" moment when reality changes to fantasy. A second "all of a sudden" moment occurs when they come back to reality. There is also a life lesson in each story.The Little Red Door is about an adventure in their new house as they explore. It is fun, exciting, and suspenseful. It also is a good segue to bedtime with message after the end that "all of a sudden, it's bedtime!"
It already happened in Europe, and now, it is happening in America. Christianity, once the dominant element of our culture is dying. Pastors are leaving their pulpits in droves. Churches are closing or see declining attendance. More and more people have little to no interest in attending church services even on Easter and Christmas! This decline is especially noticeable in the part of America where the Gospel first arrived--the northeast! Why is this happening, and can anything be done to reverse these critical trends? For over two thousand years, the Church of Jesus Christ has moved from its original bold, open-air, service-oriented outreach to a cloistered inside a building existence adversely impacting the Gospel. Christians rarely share their faith even with their loved ones. More and more being a Christian means to be an enemy of the progressive nature of our society. Whatever Happened to the Biblical Church? addresses the reasons for this departure from the New Testament church and Christianity and gives applicable, first-century solutions to avoid and overcome this lapse into the post-Christian culture. But in order to understand let alone accept these solutions Christians and especially Christian leaders must understand that the church as we know it today is not what is found in the New Testament. We must return to the local gathering, discipleship oriented and open-air ministries that existed when Christ commanded his followers to "be witnesses for me."
For many months, Ed has chatted on the phone to Gail, the Bronson and Schubert's order clerk with a spine-tingling voice, without ever seeing her. Yet, he has fallen in love and is desperate to meet her. When he finally contrives to see her, he's in for a shock, leading to a romance fraught with difficulties, censure, high adventure, and danger. This is South Africa in 1970.
Come take a Prayer-filled journey with me. You will see how God has answered some awesome Prayers involving me and my family. You'll see one raised from what Doctors believed to be death. The Lame walk. The blind see. Even the true, wonderful, heartfelt love that God has Blessed us with. I'm speaking of my husband and me.My Daddy lived to be ninety-one years old. God Blessed Daddy to come together with his kids, grandkids, great grandkids, my puppies. Daddy even got a chance to hear about this book, Believe.This book was inspired by God and my Daddy (David Lee). Not me! Rereading these true life-answered Prayers and testimonies, they seem like fairy tales even though I lived them all, you see. But it is just God's way of showing us that "It is well with Thee!" Now let us begin to see how a young girl baptized at an early age, gave her life to Christ Jesus. Thought she could take it back. Took all kinds of crazy chances, made some stupid choices. But when God saw the path that I was on, He disciplined me in a strong, loving way and made me Believe. Now I am honored that God is letting me share some of the Blessings that we have received! May the reading and sharing of this book win more souls for Jesus Christ! Stay Blessed! God's Best! In the Almighty Name of Jesus! Holla Glory Hallelujah as we all say Amen!
Growing up with a single parent and three siblings and not having much, my mother made sure we had food on the table. At a young age until the age of thirteen, I was molested. When I was fifteen years old, I became a Christian and thought getting married was the way out to being independent. I got married at the age of fifteen to my first husband. A few years after, the abuse began. Throughout my marriage, I suffered a lot of emotional, physical, and financial abuse and was also raped by two different men in my life. When I remarried to my now ex-husband Eddie that is now in prison, the abuse did not stop. I had to hit rock bottom and get my wake-up call. I felt helpless, depressed, and stuck for several years. My journey has been a long one. My faith in God and my children have been my strength. I am now attending college to become a social worker and am also a CEO/cofounder of a foundation to fight against domestic violence for men, women, and children. United we can break the silence, and divided we fall. There is no excuse for abuse!
I could see no hope for a better tomorrow--only more pain-filled days and more tragedy coming down the line. It wasn't until I cried out to God in total despair and began searching the scriptures for comfort--and perhaps just a glimmer of hope somewhere in the pages--that my life took on a radical change. For slowly, but ever so surely, my life went from tragedy to purpose.

This book distills twenty-five-plus years of personal study done by a Harvard Law-trained trial attorney to determine whether Darwin's big idea-the notion that more complex species evolved from more simple ancestors-is supported by the scientific evidence. Spoiler alert: it is not. Yet most Americans have been taught to believe that Darwin's theory has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt. Sadly, most people do not have nearly enough time to do the reading and study necessary to understand that this belief is false.This book changes all that. It is unique in that it presents technical information from more than a dozen important books in a form that is both brief and easily understood. Readers can learn a series of decisive truths about Darwin's big idea in just a few hours...truths that may well take them completely by surprise.
When I thought of the title Pain in the Butt, I meant it figuratively, since I do not even have sensation there! As I have shared my title with people through the years, the reaction is always a laugh, as I had hoped to invoke humor. I wrote it with that in mind. I hope once you read my book, you will see despite the turn my life took on that, fateful day in December, I not only survived the tragedy but went on to live an exuberant and joyful life, "Joie de Vivre."
The Time Is Fulfilled, End-Time Prophecy Has Already Started to HappenHere's What's Coming NextDennis Callen had a visitation twice by the presence of the Lord a few years ago, very early in the morning. At that time, the Lord revealed the correct and current interpretation of end-time prophecy, much of which is not the same as is taught today.Here is what you will find in the book:The book of Daniel is all about Israel and the tribulation.The book of Revelation and the book of Daniel take place concurrently.The seven seals of Revelation have all been opened already.What started the seventy weeks of prophecy in the book of Daniel and what caused there to be gaps in them.Daniel's seventieth week is so close to starting, that it may have already started by the time you read this book.The Jewish Rabbis have already dedicated the altar and done a dress rehearsal for the daily sacrifices.End-time prophecy reveals that two-thirds of the world's populations will die because of natural disasters and possibly a nuclear war.And much, much more!Of all the books brother Callen has written, this book was the most unique for him in that, he says, it was like taking dictation from the Holy Spirit and not just writing it from his own understanding, research, or opinion. This is one book that will bring the reader up-to-date with current events as the end-time prophecy has recently played out and will show you the exact day the tribulation will start, for the time is at hand. This book is Not a repeat of what has already been written by other writers. In fact, you will find it to be completely different."Five out of five stars scripturally accurate and easy to read and understand" (Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2019).Most end-time prophecy books I have read all say the same things. A lot of them are private interpretations, which 2 Peter 1:20 says we should stay away from. This book uses scripture to interpret scripture. I have never read anything like this before. It all makes biblical sense to me. I can see how the seals have been opened already. The results of the seals are on the television news almost every day.The Bible says we are to be simple concerning evil (Romans 16:19). So if the book of Revelation is about the tribulation only and all the evil that would take place after we are gone, then this would violate Romans 16:19. However, the book of Revelation is first about setting the stage for the move of God in the greatest revival the world has ever seen, plus the coming wrath of God found in Revelation chapter 16.I don't know of any other book that is as accurate and exciting to read as this book. You can tell it has the same feel as reading the Bible. Every Christian needs to read this book. I highly recommend it.The book of revelation is taken verse by verse with a clear, easy-to-understand explanation.Of all the books that are out there, this is the only one I recommend highly.
Building a Culture of Life takes the reader on a journey to understand the complexities that have lead us to the modern era choices on such diverse topics as contraception, abortion, in vitro fertilization, cloning, stem cell research, genetic engineering, euthanasia, and assisted suicide.Beginning in antiquity, we note that people have both celebrated new babies and killed them, typically because of physical defects or female gender. All manner of toxic substances have also been used to prevent pregnancy and abort an unwanted pregnancy. As unsettling as these practices sound in the modern era, most of the changes over time are one of technology.In order to understand what follows, the reader is then introduced to eugenics, racism, and genocide, attitudes that degrade respect for life and the dignity of individuals. From there, the lives of Margaret Sanger and Norma McCorvey prepare the reader for an in depth discussion of why women seek abortion and how abortion is publicly funded.A discussion of prevention and termination of unwanted pregnancies takes us far beyond contraception and abortion. It leads us also to discuss abortion survivors, human sex trafficking, rape, incest, neonaticide, and infanticide.Modern technology has also offered in vitro fertilization, stem cell research, and genetic engineering; society also discusses human cloning, euthanasia and assisted suicide.All these topics are treated with a minimum of technical detail so that the impact on respect for the life and dignity of individuals is emphasized while we find a path to the future that preserves both.In conclusion, there is a discussion of resources available to those women who find themselves in desperate and untenable situations that make them consider abortion as their only option. State controlled community resources, charitable pregnancy resource centers, and healing after such traumas as rape, incest, and abortion give us hope for "building a culture of life."
