God's Return On Investment is based on the perception that God is constantly involved in our lives and is training us to understand what He and Jesus did for us and do for us. In order to gain insight into the spiritual realm, where God wants us to have a relationship with Him, He utilizes what we understand through physical properties. In other words, what we are familiar with, that occurs in our day-to-day lives, is actually just examples of what God wants us to understand spiritually. This book takes us through the journey of our lives from birth to death by utilizing the aspect of returns that occur in each phase of our life. God put this property of returns into His plan before Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden. Before the sin was committed, He established the way for revitalizing the originally intended relationship between Him and us through His son Jesus. Now He wants us to see, through physical returns, what has been done for us by way of His investment. The things that went wrong in the Garden of Eden are counteracted by our human representative in the Garden...of Gethsemane. Why has He done all of this? Because He has always loved us and wants us to love Him as was originally intended before sin entered the world.

Editorial cartoonist Paul Jamiol's fourth book of political cartoons represents his take on the world and on those in that world who should be scrutinized a little closer for their words and deeds. Upheaval, divisiveness, and a new Administration were hallmarks of the years 2017-2019 in which Americans were affected profoundly. This book is Jamiol's recording of that period in a selection of 150 cartoons. Jamiol's pursuit of honesty is relentless. "We need to care about our fellow Americans, not denigrate them or beat them down, and if that's happening, we need to bring it out into the light."Like all his books, this collection strives to be a truthful recording of the rising tide of spin from the White House occupant, his ilk, and the Right-wing media revisionists who want to "slide things past" the American people. These falsehoods come in waves that never seems to stop. They try to penetrate the American consciousness, hoping lies will be accepted as the truth. Hopefully this book of cartoons will turn the tide and hold some waves back so Jamiol's non-revisionist telling of events might also be heard.This book won't change your perception of the world. It will only show you how Jamiol perceives the world. Whether you agree with his handling of an issue, you will be captivated by his creativity, poignancy, toughness, and honesty. It targets readers interested in politics, issues, a cartoonist's take on the world, or are just curious about our changing political landscape. Visual commentary can highlight an issue more clearly than the written word.
