America today is faced with a great number of concerns. One of the larger ones is the role of religious thought and practices in our everyday lives. Issues such as abortion, Intelligent Design, and the moral and ethical impact of technology on its citizens weigh heavily on almost all of us. These issues predominate both the front pages and the op-ed pages of our newspapers. They fill the news media on both television and the net. They created heated arguments in almost every community in our world, often leading to open conflicts between friends and even family members. Religion and faith are in conflict within the hearts and minds of educated people exposed to more and more information. Science has marched directly into realms covered by faith, leading to great angst within people who try and balance their "Church" mind with the secular world. Nowhere is this conflict more apparent than in the issues generated in the reconciliation of theology and modern science. As cosmology crossed over into the sacred ground of the Creation with the discovery of the Big Bang, scientists themselves discovered that they had come face to face with the questions around the existence of God, the Creator, and his role in Creation. While most of the general population believes that scientists are atheists, and that the basic tenets of theology and science are antithetical, the opposite is actually closer to the truth. There is a ground where science and theology can, and must, share thoughts. Scientists like Einstein and Hawking speak of trying to "understand the mind of God" and make bold conjectures as to whether or not God had any choices in his design of the Universe. This book attempt to build a bridge from Science to Faith and back, and opens the mind of the Child. the Mind of Man and relates them both to the Mind of God.

This book details many facets in the development of man, from humble animal beginnings to the sophisticated, citified man we see today. We explore the evolutionary changes of man in a world of creation. But if we're honest, we recognize man as an unfinished work and currently a "bad actor". So, we explore the "who", "what", "when", "where", "why" and "how" man got this far and what drives his behavior in this complex, complicated, and convoluted world. We'll take advantage of paleontologic and archaeologic evidence, but also explore extraterrestrial hocus pocus. We'll consider the soul as the essence of individual existence and ensoulment as the process of receiving that soul. And we'll look at what man does, might do, or has done (some that he might not be proud of - e.g., conspiracy, rebellion, and revolution) - all in the quest to know man, now and in the future.
History provides many notable examples of individuals rising above tragedy to accomplish great things in their lives, never allowing worry or regret to prevent them from seizing an opportunity. The life of the late Don D. Pittman serves as an ideal example of someone who refused to falter when faced with a challenge and, through perseverance, went on to serve in several key positions in the U.S. Air Force during the Cold War. Born on Halloween of 1925, Pittman’s mother passed away in childbirth and his father soon left town, leaving the infant boy to be raised by his grandparents in Jefferson City, Missouri. He would go on to graduate from a local Catholic high school and enlist as an aviation cadet in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II. Earning his wings as a transport pilot, he participated in relief flights during the famed Berlin Airlift before making the transition to jet aircraft and later completing two tours as a command pilot in the Vietnam War. Demonstrating his capacity for leadership, Pittman ascended through the offi cer ranks, eventually commanding U.S. Air Forces, Korea and the 24th NORAD Region. When his thirtyfive year career ended in 1978, he had achieved the esteemed rank of two-star general. Major General Pittman’s service characterizes the dedication of a member of the “Greatest Generation” — a patriotic citizen whose life was defined by accomplishment and, through his uniformed service, ascended hardship and misfortune to achieve great success in his military career.
In a myriad of ways, prolific writer Gordon Offin-Amaniampong had never come across or seen ‘The Mega Basket ‘ (probably the size of a super shopping centre).

The book hooks the reader up right from the get go. And one can’t drop it until one gets it all tasted and feelmesmerized!It’s a must-read Book.

In this story the honored becomes dishonored and the hardened become weak, where God has been claimed too beseeched the empty and broken God finds a troubled knight on the third crusade consisting of three famous kings and a nexus of bloodshed and condemnation. Acre a city known much like Jericho to the Arabs, is a stepping stone for this story, but it’s pivot unearthing a truth to a few decent men and fallen soldiers.

I have written this memoir of my children’s (Kelly’s and Scott’s) courageous wars against cancer , for all the countless people who love Scott and Kelly. They fought their wars so valiantly! Those of you who read this who have cancer or love people with cancer, may also shed tears as you recognize the suffering, the prayers for healing, the love, the desperation, as cancer sufferers literally disintegrate before our eyes and we, to some degree, disintegrate with them. I have written this memoir as a special tribute to my children; however, I am praying for all cancer warriors.
As an educator, I noticed that there was a shortage of books written about the different challenges that children face written for children. My hope in writing books such as this one, is that children would be given a voice to say, "Hey, that sounds like me, maybe I can get help!!" So many children struggle with challenges and do not know how to ask for help or feel hopeless or different because their friends do not have the same challenges.I want children to have a way to identify what they are struggling with so that they can ask for help and feel good about themselves for getting help. I see too many children who cannot speak for themselves or feel helpless to ask for assistance with whatever it is they are going through.I hope this book and the books I plan to write will do just that for our children. I hope that children will realize that they are not alone and that there is help and compassion for the obstacles they face.
