West by God is the story of a young newspaper journalist named Adelaide sent to report on a high-profile murder in the remote (and fictional) town of Targrady, West Virginia. Once she gets there, she discovers the case in question is anything but open-and-shut, and quickly finds herself neck-deep in a mystery that could sink the entire town. Complicating Adelaide's efforts to get to the bottom of the story are the machinations of a nightmare creature called the Witchum Woman, a local drug syndicate led by the enigmatic Fetid Queen and populated by white supremacists, and the age-old small town suspicion of outsiders. "West by God" is an adult horror/thriller fiction novel that delves into themes of race, gender, sexuality, and justice. It could be found on a shelf beside authors such as Dan Simmons and Davis Grubb.
"A Word, Only a Word" by Georg Moritz Ebers is a captivating tale set in the enchanting landscapes of the Black Forest. The novel opens with a seemingly innocent conversation between two children, Ruth and Ulrich, discussing their fathers' quests and tribulations. Ruth speaks of her father's search for a mystical word that has the power to unveil treasures by opening mountains, while Ulrich shares the turmoil within his family, his father's anger towards his mother. Set in the sultry days of late spring, the novel masterfully blends the beauty of nature with the complex emotions and struggles of its characters. Ebers crafts a narrative that is both a celebration of nature's splendor and a poignant exploration of human relationships and the search for meaning in a word.

"If you've ever felt the tug to go deeper as a disciple of Christ, dreamt of rebuilding your life with profound peace and wholeness, and yearned for relational renewal within the Christian community, let me take you on a journey through 'A Reconciled Life.' This isn't just a book; it's a pathway to the transformation you've been seeking." A Reconciled Life is about how honoring one's heritage and legacy through pursuing a life ofpeace and wholeness in Christ, transforms us and makes a difference in our world. God's HolySpirit has utilized the backdrop of my childhood as a minister's son and the experiences andchallenges of my time in pastoral ministry to reveal to me and, subsequently, to engage the broaderchurch with some powerful and thought-provoking insights such as: God has ordained our broken, unredeemed heritage and personal past to be the starting point for our generational transformation.Yahweh has given to those who come into a new covenant relationship with Him-His sons anddaughters-the greatest power that exists in eternity and time. We have been given this power tomediate the ministry of reconciliation to each other and the world. Three years before the turmoil ofour 2020 moment in history, God was speaking to my heart, revealing powerful understandingsconcerning His heart for reconciliation in my life, His church, and the world we impact. If you desirea conversation that will engage your thoughts and heart with transformative perspectives and Christ-centered solutions, this book is for you. I trust you will be blessed, challenged, and encouraged by the>Bishop Terrance Jenkins Church of God (Ret.), Th. D., Ph. D. President and founder of Montreal School of Ministry (Ret.) This work is one of a personal, and yet family, journey through time. From his boyhood as a PK to manhood, marriage, family, and pastoring a congregation, Pastor Morrison shares the joys and the heartaches of pastoring a congregation, which the majority of church attendees do not understand. He shares how when the leader feels God wants to take the congregation in a particular direction, sometimes friction ensues because the people are content where they are. Unless that friction is dealt with biblically, the situation soon becomes toxic... In any case, one cannot unscramble a scrambled egg. The past is the past, and we must move toward the future, looking unto the Author and Finisher of our faith to guide us in the right direction, fulfilling His purpose for us until we reach heaven...Reading this work and sharing my thoughts about it has been a blessing. I recommend that everyone who wants to become involved in the work of the church read it, enjoy it and take note that God can use you in any capacity you choose to allow Him.

Anche Anna, la madre, rassegnata e sottomessa, subisce la furia del marito; ma il destino metterà sul cammino delle due donne la visionaria Ada, a cui un grave lutto ha offuscato la mente.
