Marriage is one of the most cherished events in a person's life, especially for a Christian. However, more questions can arise about marriage even after the wedding vows are said. Author William Femi Awodele discusses a comprehensive point of view on marriage through his new book, Common Questions and Biblical-Christianity Influenced Answers for African Marriages in the Diaspora. William provides biblical responses through a question-and-answer format in regards to common issues and concerns in African marriages. Differences between African and Western cultures towards matrimony are discussed, but the central focus is on men and women's roles in relationships: in dating, courtship and marriage. Finances in marriage, raising children biblically and marrying from different cultures are among the topics answered, as well as the role of in-laws in marriage and sex before and into marriage. The hope is for Christians to marry true Christians, going from two to one in flesh.

I was born a Moslem. I spent the first forty six years of my life believing the Qur'an. I had no reason to doubt anything in the Qur'an until a turning point in my life which I will explain later. A t this pivotal moment in my search for true religious practice I made my own comparative study of what the Qur'an tells us and what the Christian bible tells us. The first thing I found was that the central message of the Christian bible and indeed Christianity, is that God loves us and He commands us to love our neighbor as we love our selves. I don't find any message of Allah loving mankind in the Qur'an. On the contrary, the Quar'an's consistent message that Allah will send all of mankind to hell without regard to the quality of their life here on earth. No where do I see the God I have come to know, the Judaic/Christian God of the bible exalting His people to kill and do other harm to one another in his Name. At the very beginning the Qur'an is flawed because it tells of Allah commanding Mohamed to believe the holy books of the Jews and the Christians, the Old and New Testament. Yet today, if I were to stand in a mosque and proclaim that I believed in the bible I could and probably would be killed just for following the very first instructions Mohamed said he received from Allah. It compels the questions: Which is it?

We struggle with the fact that infants and young children die. We struggle with the fact that life is hard and unjust. If we are a child of God, we believe that we should live a blessed life and enjoy all the best that life has to offer. We cannot understand why God would allow such evil and destruction to take place in the world. The problem with our thinking is that we think life here on earth is our perfect gift from God. I struggled with difficulties and heartbreak in my life and turned to the Bible in my attempt to learn what I needed to do to make the hurt and unhappiness go away. As I studied God's Word I realized that I was totally mistaken about the purpose of my life here on earth. I saw God's purpose for creating our world and why He allowed evil and sin to enter into the world. I understood why He created me and what He wants me to do with my life. I have written this book to share my understanding of the purpose of life and the true perfect gift that God has prepared for us.

This book will help you understand that a true relationship with Jesus Christ is what makes us right with God. It will help you better understand the difference between the lawful way of living (picking from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil) versus having a right relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ (picking from the Tree of Life). Through my years as a Christian, I noticed the more I focus on obeying the laws (Ten Commandments) caused me to sin more and more each day. Most days I would get up each morning and say to myself, "I am not going to sin today." Each time I told myself this, I failed.  Romans 7:6 (NLT) "But now we have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit." This relationship with God, through His Son Jesus Christ requires reading His word, putting it in practice, and praying, which builds our faith to keep believing and trusting in Him. Having this relationship has made a huge change in my life. The person I used to be, I am no longer because of Jesus Christ.  2 Corinthians 5:17 (NLT) "This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!" Choosing the Tree of Life, Jesus Christ, has truly changed me on the inside and outside.

I loved this book!. Right from the start, it captured my interest. I really like how well you could sense the emotion and feelings felt by the characters. It really made me feel like I was right there with them. This book is perfect for upper elementary and even middle school aged children. The detail at the end of the story was perfect, it answered all of the questions that the title left me asking. I think this could be the first book in a great series. I'll definitely be buying this for my daughter. Mary Lavdas, Parent Rose Wood has a background in Medical Social Work. She has both professional and personal experience with children. Her writing reflects her understanding of the emotional nature of her characters' personalities that add to their delightful antics and charm. The rich spiritual insights Rose demonstrates in Saluki's Adventures comes from her background as a Religious Educator.

Quiet Time Thank you Father for the early time, and a special place When all that I have on my mind, is to seek your face When it's just you and me, and I can hear your voice Because there is no distractions, that's reason to rejoice It's in these times I hear you, and your presence I can feel It's then I know that I know, that my God is real I can feel your arms around me, and I know you really care The way you make me feel, is impossible to share There I have no problems, and my troubles fade away Your voice is so much clearer, I hear just what you say My heart burns within me, I feel my spirit soar That's when I pray Lord, help me love you more I love this time together, when it's only you and me It helps me understand, how sweet eternity will be Yet you haven't called me, there must be things for me to do Yet how I long to enter eternity, forever to be with you For when this life is over, and I'm on the other shore I can be in your blessed presence, to stay forevermore But until that should happen, and you call me to come that way I pray that this special time with you, never slips away

London Maxwell has kept a mental list for nearly thirty years. She refers to it as the list of why she feels fat and inadequate, an unhealthy list to be sure. This list became one of the building blocks that formed the person London Abernathy Maxwell grew up to be. Other foundational building blocks included all of the unkind appraisals from others she refused to forget over the years, unrealistic expectations of a culture obsessed with youth and unattainable ideals of beauty, and her own critical ruminations. Nearly thirty years after he left London and her mother, London's father invites her to spend Christmas with him and his second wife. London accepts the invitation but returns home disappointed that the trip didn't lead to any kind of accord between herself and her father, or any progress in healing her badly damaged self image. Over the next few months she finds herself taking a scenic detour on her journey toward claiming the restoration she desperately desires. Her fellow wayfarers on this journey include her dearest friend who faces a foe she thought she had defeated; her mother who lost her husband but refuses to let go of anything else; and her daughter who is following London's blueprint of self loathing in building her own foundation. On this detour she encounters a man who broke her heart, a woman who personified the cultural ideal of beauty to a young London, and the grandmotherly figure whom London had forgotten about a long time ago. Many people have a role in helping London arrive at her destination. However, London cannot trade in her ashes for beauty until she accepts the truth from the One who saw her beauty before He spoke her into existence.

Twins, Lucas and Kristina, have always known that they have "hero blood running through their veins"; or so they've been told by their Choctaw Indian grandfather. But knowing they are destined to be heroes, and knowing what it means to be heroes, are two different things. One day a mysterious package shows up at their doorstep. It is a gift from their grandfather, which would not be that odd except for the fact that he had passed away five years earlier. His unexpected last gift to his grandchildren, a dream catcher, would allow them to travel back in time to see their heroic ancestors in action in order to help them find their own destiny. Along the way the twins learn a bit of history, the importance of faith, and the value of family.

My name is Donna Ray. I was born in 1950, grew up in Detroit Michigan, and attended Detroit Public Schools. I fell in love with books after my first trip to the school library, and after that, I read everything that I could get my hands on; even my Dads hunting and fishing magazines. My Dad told me that if I could read, I could learn about anything, and go anywhere, in a book, and I love to learn new things. By the time I was in Middle School, I knew that I wanted to be a writer. After High School, I married and raised three children, who love to read. I now have grandchildren, and my youngest grandchild, who is 11 years old, and also loves to read, has decided to become an author and has written several short stories of her own! I have learned that sometimes life can get in the way of our dreams, but to never stop dreaming. Through prayer and trust in GOD, we can accomplish anything. We can even move mountains! (Mark 11:23 King James Bible).

At age 85 and having buried himself in the King James Bible since his rebirth and baptism with the Holy Ghost in January of 1968. Charles (Wes) Bush is certainly qualified to share his views on the forthcoming 1000 year reign of Jesus Christ, as well as the Mark of the Beast and the Great Tribulation in general. Early in his studies Wes was invited to record John Osteen's first convention at Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas, where he en-countered a demoniac who was tearing at his clothes and screaming obcenities so loudly that everyone left the sanctuary, leaving Wes alone and wondering what to do. Just as the scripture teaches, God took control and using Wes' voice, began quoting one scripture after another. Wes testimony of this event will excite and educate all who read it. This event caused Wes to write the book, On Evil And Unclean Spirits. It was subsequently published by Christ For The Nations in Dallas, Texas and used by them for several years as a text book. The books in this anthology are extremely up to date and vital for this age. The reader will quickly realize that Wes' viewpoint on these subjects reach beyond normal pulpit Gospel; but, are certainly Gospel, none the less. Read and allow the Holy Ghost to be the judge of the doctrines presented.

As he pulled her towards the car, she grappled with what to do to not only save herself, but also protect her family, especially since he had a gun and was unwilling to listen to reason. These heart-stopping memories are what begin the empowering autobiography of author Doris Rivera-Black, Clothed in Strength, which recounts her tumultuous relationship and escape from her ex-husband, James. Doris was a young mother with two little girls, when she met James, a charming and considerate co-worker who seemed to be the "perfect husband". He was supportive during her training to become a deputy sheriff. However, once the two wed, issues with being controlling and manipulative began to surface in James. James's true character was being revealed to her. On June 26, 2006, after a brief separation, things took a dangerous turn. James kidnapped Doris after her work shift ended and held her hostage for hours. In the midst of her kidnapping, Doris realized whom she needed to cry out to for help, God. This turn of events showed Doris she needed to re-establish her relationship with God and let Him lead her path, seeing that her story could be used to help others find freedom from abuse and ridicule. Doris has made it her personal mission to share her story in an effort to help others. She has appeared on The Oprah Show, Focus on the Family's Daily Broadcast Show, and numerous media and radio stations to share her empowering story.

"Write the vision and make it plain upon tablets that he may run that readeth it." Habakkuk 2:2 Just as the Gospel has been written, the vision must also be written. Where there is no written vision (foresight, perception, concept or idea) the people perish: Proverbs 29:18. The longevity of spoken words can never compare to the longevity of written documents. Believers trust in and live life according to what has been written by biblical authors in the scriptures. Great prophets such as Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, David and apostles such as Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Paul were writers and authors whom God used to write and record His word, laws, and commandments. Their greater contribution to the church society was their biblical authorship and anointed penmanship as ready writers. Without their authorship, mankind would be without the scriptures, the knowledge and salvation of God. From our scholastic and judicial systems to government structure and business, men live and govern themselves by what is written upon paper with a pen. From the writing of great songs, music, and movie scripts, to our Constitution and the writing of the Declaration of Independence, the world has always been an open vineyard for ready writers. Church leadership must now recognize the ministry of writing, The Authorship of the Trinity and the importance of born again editors, publishers, authors and writers being given their rightful position in the local church assembly. This expository and revelatory book encourages writers to be ready at all times. It reveals Jesus Christ as Yeshua, the Lord of authors, the Ready Writer who is busy writing Christian names in His Lamb's Book of Life. King David, the great writer, psalmist, and spiritual heart specialist, in Psalm 45:1 said this: "My heart is overflowing (indicting, writing) with a good matter." My tongue is the pen of a Ready Writer. David was a great writer and author after God's own Heart. The Heart is the key. With a pen we write upon paper, but with our mouth and tongue we write upon the mind and Heart. Though millions of books, poems, articles and laws have been written upon paper with a ready pen, yet nothing is to be compared to what is written within us upon our spiritual hearts and mind. Dr. Donald R. Downing is the author of 32 books and is known as the Heart Doctor, the Apostle for the "Gospel of the Heart." In this book he inspires writers to write and church leaders to receive the Ministry of Writing and authors into their local church assembly. He believes that few of the biblical authors and today's writers have been given their rightful accolades and open respect in the church body of Christ. He no longer believes that his leadership is greater than his authorship, neither are his teaching and preaching ministry greater than his penmanship. "It is written" has greatly impacted his mind and heart. As the founder of the Heart to Heart Christian Centers, he encourages every publicist, editor and author to be sure to keep a ready pen, a pure heart and a writing mind.
