Joseph and his father had long talks about his favorite stories in the Bible. During these talks, Joseph's mother would sit with them enjoying how they talked with each other. She sometimes helped explain scripture in a simple way Joseph could understand. This normal life soon changed, in ways Joseph couldn't deal with properly. With each challenge, Joseph's faith sees him through. Then a greater challenge would fall on him, and yet again his faith would see him through. Joseph found himself facing true evil, and it took an agent of heaven to help him survive. You will see him grow with each challenge. You will see how the people around him respond to his growth. Joseph not only finds how powerful scripture can be against evil, he also discovers how much evil has always been around him that he couldn't see.

That was until one fateful morning turned into a nightmare for visitors to the city zoo.For homicide detectives Marcus Winslow and Ollie Fristad, it was to prove an unpleasant discovery. A human foot found in a tiger's enclosure would lead them and Sue Rider from the FBI crime lab on a hunt that would stretch from the waters of San Francisco Bay to the office of the city's district attorney.For the Zoo Killer, the media's press coverage and public notoriety was an unseen bonus. In his mind, he was a ghost: everyone saw him but paid him little or no attention. He saw himself as an invisible hunter, stalking his next victim among the meaty herd of two-legged animals that seemed to surround him and ignore him all at the same time.

It was almost two years since he asked Blessica to marry him when the two met each other in the small town of Twickenham City, Mississippi.

Heartbroken as Everton was, this was not much of a shocker for him. He has been on the journey to find his true love, and his encounters with the ladies always had some twist.

What happens when fake news is being followed by most citizens in your country, and it is believed to be truth? What do you do when your political leaders create policies with the sole purpose of meeting their own needs and not the needs of your community, or your fellow citizens who elected them? How far do you go when your communities are being torn apart by dissention, violence has taken over, and the entire history of your culture and country are under attack?This is just what had occurred in 1960 in a country of millions of people only ninety miles away from the United States. Heart of Honor: A Man's Incredible Journey to Save His Family and Country is taken right out of the headlines from back then, which are the same headlines of today, as the CIA, Communist influences, investigative agencies, and media all conspire together to confuse and distort the public's knowledge of reality in order to meet their own priorities and goals. It is a true story for the ages, and it is destined to become the next must-read on all best-seller lists! Its message resonates - a time of innocence and trust comes crashing against major world events, wherein those with nefarious self-interests plot to destroy an established and joyful culture that is at once vulnerable and expendable.This tale follows one Cuban family during a government uprising. One day, Ricardo and Angela Gomez are living a happy and peaceful life with their children in the historic city of Pinar Del Río in Cuba. The next day ... they see their government falter and change instantaneously, and then their lives become shattered. Their choices are limited and yet there is hope - they decide they will not stand back and allow these perilous changes to happen without a fight. What happens next will fascinate you and bring you to the edge of your seats! At its core, Heart of Honor is a love story set during a great political uprising - the true history of a group of devout citizens with a rich heritage who decide not to allow a dictator to have free license to ruin their country. It is a lesson for today about how far an ordinary family will go once they realize their government is for itself and not for its people. A lesson more necessary now than ever, if any of us hope to understand and to navigate current world affairs!
This "fractured fairy tale" is the result of Mrs. Burns' first attempt to step out of the comfort zone of writing from experience in her memoir and knock on the door of her imagination for her writer's group's meeting in November 2017. The assignment was to write a fiction piece. Ellen had tried unsuccessfully, in the past, to write fiction. She had become comfortable writing about her life experiences, during the months of sharing memoir excerpts with her 'Writers on the River', but attempting fiction again was untested and uncertain. This work was actually inspired by a remark made by her husband, as she struggled with the topic for that month's meeting.In keeping with the memoir genre, this tale is set using names familiar with the locals, and to satisfy the assignment of writing fiction, it brings "Little Red Riding Hood" to Northern New York.
The Five Old Guys are all dead now, as are most of the once homeless people in this book, but the long sad line, coming up behind them, hosts several million more of our neighbors, all so poor they cannot afford to go to that place we all go when the darkness comes-a home. These are stories about a few of the thousands of homeless folks who found their way to the campus of the York County Shelter Programs, in an unlikely corner of New England during the end of the twentieth century, but forecast by Robert Frost earlier in the century: Home, he mocked gently.Yes, what else but home?It all depends on what you mean by home.Of course he''s nothing to us any moreThan was the hound that came a stranger to usOut of the woods, worn out upon the trail''Home is the place where, when you go there,They have to take you in. They are all real people with mothers and fathers, warts and halos, and not one of them ever dreamed that what they would become when they grew up-was homeless.
