At times, we all might feel like we are on the outside looking in. Sometimes, the windows we stare into show us all the things we wish we had. Sometimes, the windows show us the people we want to hold and keep close to in our lives. And sometimes, the light glinting off the glass shows us who we are and who God encourages us to be. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the whole world transformed into a series of windowed lives, from the electronic panes of Zoom, to store screens between customers and workers, to the glass frames of protection between loved ones and us. Looking through the framed pages of author R.J. Snyder's Little Window Visits On Lindenpopper Lane, young readers and parents alike visit a captivating poetry narrative, which follows Tommy Tillford, a young boy who inadvertently shatters a house window with his baseball. The house owner takes Tommy on a journey down Lindenpopper Lane, to view other lives through other windows and learn about the special services they offer to all around them. Along the way, Tommy learns the value provided by his own service as company for his Grandma Esther, as she stays confined behind the Covid-19 safety glass in Mercy Care Home. Carefully selected Scripture matches the sentiment and story of many of the pages of this enlightening children's book, and gives readers of all ages a clear view into the ultimate love and salvation found when we come to believe in and follow the lessons of Jesus Christ. Like the broken window glass, our brokenness from sin can be fixed and made whole again when we choose Him.

THREE BORDER CITY "God Kept The Lights On" This book is the riveting testimony of how a girl with a troubled past faced conviction on First-degree murder charges and how she turned herself in. How a faithful couple of believers changed her life and helped her accept Jesus Christ as her personal savior while she was incarcerated. Her life after conviction transformed her into a spirit-filled woman of God and led her to assist as a translator in the same courts and legal system that tried her in a previous conviction. Your experiences do not define you. God always gets the final say. Claudia Miller is a community activist, legal, scholastic, and medical translator. She was previously incarcerated and God used a faithful believer to help turn my life and story around. Your experiences do not identify you. After all, that she went through, God used the same courts and legal system that tried her in a previous conviction to become her testimony of faith. It became an avenue that helped her turn her life around and translate for those who were sitting right in the same shoes she once fit. God works in mysterious ways, we don't understand what he is doing until he allows us to see his revelation of love when we look through life's rearview mirror. Claudia prays that God uses this to minister to the broken and the lost. That they may find faith when life is at its bleakest.

Growing up in a missionary home in Argentina and Cuba offered me an array of opportunities, and diverse cultural awareness. I was blessed. But life became complicated and confusing.

Higher Truth is the non-fiction result of a forty-year labor of love. It is challenging to finish a book about an eternal subject. Truth must be eternal. What could truly have existed before truth? May Higher Truth make you think a lot, smile frequently, laugh a little, and perhaps even shed a heartfelt tear. May Higher Truth also inspire you to find your highest purpose and your greatest potential. Higher Truth was written to: comfort you, inspire you, assure you, renew you, and encourage you. Enjoy. Try not to skip ahead. It helps to know all the factors before you arrive at the sum. This is the space where most authors might list their degrees which pertain to the subject they have written about. But there are no college truth courses, nor degrees one can earn studying truth. And regardless, I believe sharing what I have learned is of more benefit to you than listing my personal achievements. The only qualification one can truly have for teaching truth is having spent several years seeking and studying truth. I Have been doing so for forty years. If truth were a college course- even though I am not the fastest learner, I believe after forty years I would have some sort of degree. We all find a degree of truth. Life is a constant education. I hope the truths I have found give you an advanced degree.

Do you desire to have more purpose, peace, and joy in your life and less anxiety, doubt, and discouragement? Does the Bible seem too difficult to really understand and apply to your life? TAKE FIVE TO THRIVE WILL help you grow in each of these areas, and it will not take much more than around five minutes a day. I am a husband, father of four, and I have six grandchildren. I have coached children ages K-12 in Physical Education for 20 years and have Pastored for over 20 years. I wrote about the inspiration for this book in the introduction part of my manuscript.

When it comes to understanding the End Times, there is no want of speculation and sensationalism that often strikes fear and anxiety in many hearts. Yet according to the Holy Scriptures, God desires us to look forward with hope and courage. By explaining his unique perspective in Post-Tribulation theology that reveals details of the end time events, Phil Beck Braga goes in depth on the history of how the Pretribulation Rapture theology started and how it's interpretation has failed to adequately support end times prophecy according to the Bible. You'll get the most-asked end-times question answered: When will the Rapture be? You'll learn how to identify the antichrist and Mystery Babylon and what future signs to watch for. Readers will by educated on the correct interpretation of the Bible using three indispensable steps: knowledge of the context of the passage, comparison with other Scriptural passages, and the meaning of the original language. I pray the Holy Spirit gives you the courage and faith of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego during these times. Phil Beck Braga is an Evangelist who studied Theology at Christ for the Nations Institute in Dallas, Texas. He has been a Sunday school teacher, a Pastor, and a member of the treasury in various churches.

Barry Kolanowski, a minister, author, speaker, founder of two successful businesses and was the CEO of Senior Services of Will County, Illinois in what auditors described as a "million dollar turn around."

For 2000 years Christianity has been taught as a religion. But it is not and never was intended to be. Man made assumptions. That was understandable for the first 1500 years. Because the understanding the Bible would take time and determination. It would be another 500 years to spread the written word. By then all types of beliefs would have been created. I find it interesting that nearly every culture instinctively worships a greater being. I haven't heard of atheism until modern times. Nowhere in history are there any mention of there being more than male and female. The problem that hindered Christianity is that it was born from a Judaism which also was not religion. It is the law of life in the Kingdom of God. Christianity is the next level of faith in God. The name was given to Jews in Acts 11. What has been missed was a gross underestimation of what a human is and why did God make us different from angels. First you have to look at God's motive which is He wanted a family. Being God that meant His children would be like Him, gods. Naturally born with authority and power beyond their comprehension. Being that He is omniscient and they are not, but will have authority over all that exist, they would have to be taught about their existence. That would take time. Because we are spirits, an entity with creative capability. For instance, we play a role in the creation of our own body. Sperm and egg don't have bones, muscles and organs. We assembly them autonomously. It's the same when we eat food. The body doesn't conduct the process of digestion; we conduct the process. Put a sandwich under a corpse nose and see if you get a response. Philippians 3:20, 21 and 1 John 3:2 say it plainly, but we have become so relegalized we think prejudicially against any thought that doesn't promote our religious belief. In essence we try to avoid responsibility, as though it will go away. In my book I point out overlooked basic truths that point to God's intention. I've been a Christian for 50 years. The first 5 years I was like most Christians, totally clueless. On Nov. 16, 1976 in response to quest for verification of God's existence, God performed a miracle in me leaving me with no alternative but seek to understand Him. In 2019 God began to answer a question I posed. Why? Why let Satan exist? Why isn't this heaven. Why isn't life perfect. Why a 1000 years' period? I was told as a child to never question God. But to me asking a question isn't questioning God. Questioning is when you doubt His ability to make decisions. That is not the case. Anyway, I received all my answers. That's what is in this book. The why's. You may not like the answers or agree. But at least you won't be clueless. My website is MillennialKingdomTraining.com or you can follow me on YouTube.com Roverallsr

After going through abuse and hurt (denominational and non-denominational), Vanessa was ALL CHURCHED OUT! She found that being saved was more than going to a church, praying, and quoting scriptures. A true and honorable relationship with Christ was more than a notion, but it required a faithful commitment that she was not willing to give at first. Until one Sunday morning, she had an undeniable experience that changed her life forever; she had a God-encounter! Joining a church, getting baptized, and being filled with the Holy Spirit wasn't all she needed on her newfound journey. She needed to be battle-ready, as she quickly learned that demonic spirits weren't just in worldly sinners, but often operated in many churches and so-called Christians too. She then experienced what is known as "church hurt." After leaving Church and searching for answers, God revealed the solemn truth! She had to overcome the hurt, the lies, and the pain. The culprit, the cause, and the Christ are revealed as Vanessa vividly explains her personal journey and her Spirit-led triumph. Hold on tight as you read Book 1 in the eye-opening 3-part series called OVERCOMING CHURCH HURT. Vanessa G. Flood is an influential Christian author, speaker, and mentor. She has faithfully served, evangelized, taught, and grown graciously in the word of God for 25 years. She is now on assignment for God's Kingdom to help resurrect sleeping Christians.

Through Flooded With Faith Ministries, Vanessa continues to aid Christian ministries in boldly achieving a higher level of leadership-accountability, Christ-like standards, soul-ministry, Sprit-led teaching, and agape love without compromise.

To appreciate the life of Jesus Christ, and his role in the history of salvation, one must look back to the state of affairs that existed on the earth. After the fall of humanity, blood was spelt all over the earth as one of the bloodiest battles in human history reached its apex. With sin on the rampage, God ransomed his only begotten son as payment for sin. The administration of salvation had its full consummation in Jesus Christ. It appeared in three phases: (1) Jesus stepped into human history with the answer to life problems. He faced the most difficult challenges with the power of God; (2) Jesus re-established the kingdom of heaven on the earth; (3) Jesus showed himself alive, after his passion, by many infallible proofs. Again, with sin running rapid in the land it was imperative for God to intervene; so, he sent his only begotten son into the world in the form of sinful flesh to condemn sin in the flesh. The coming of Jesus to earth to see about his father''s loving creation-that was the first phase. The birth of Christ falls into the second phase as Jesus re-establishes his father''s realm, rule, and reign on the earth. The third and final phase was the passion of Christ, which he exhibited on the cross. His subsequent death, burial, and resurrection was highly publicized when he openly showed himself to about five hundred of his closest followers. Now an infinite number of people have followed Jesus because he continued to show himself openly through the preaching of the gospel. Dr. McKinley Johnson has served in various leadership roles throughout his professional and ecclesiastical development.

The title and the contents reflect a collection of thoughts, events, ideas and emotions. Most of them were written to create an impressive image, take a stand or provoke a yet-to-be solved controversial issue. A few were written just for mere entertainment. When one looks at a painting or other works of art, they begin to formulate words to express how it makes them feel or what image they see. "Stuph Like This," is intended to inspire, humor, relate to or formulate a picture in one's mind about what they read or hear. The first poem, "If I Die Tomorrow," was written in one of the most stressful times in my life, so I thought. It is intended to inspire one to live life to the fullest. Our tomorrows may be planned but not promised. I am a middle school teacher, one of few who graduated from high school a year early and had no idea of what I wanted to do in life. My mother and my aunt made a collaborative effort in guiding my future. In the final hours of closing registration, I submitted my application for admission to Claflin University in Orangeburg, SC. I entered the fine arts program and began my career with twenty-one hours of credit. Although my teaching career did not include art in the traditional sense, it was successfully used as an enhancement. Poetry, for me is an extension of art. It creates an image, an emotion or an opinion about what is read or heard. This collection is eclectic and not limited to a particular theme or scheme. Each piece was created at different times and reflects a variety of experiences along this journey called life.
