A true story was the inspiration for this book. It was told by a father who had taken his family for a vacation on another continent. There, people had many customs that were different than what his family was used to back home. The man had a very pretty little daughter. One of the children in the country his family was visiting noticed the girl. This boy wanted to be friendly and decided to give the girl something he thought she would like. He knew his friends liked it when he shared with them. But the boy's simple offering was not anything this girl was used to. In fact, she thought it was disgusting. So she rejected it and ran away from the boy, who had no idea what he had done wrong. Fortunately, the father saw what had happened and helped. Actually this father's true story is the sort of thing that can easily happen, and does pretty often. One person tries to do something nice; it's misinterpreted and not well received, and then there are hurt feelings. It can happen with children and even adults. That's why this story is worth telling - over and over. And it can be a good starting point for discussions.

Do Angels Smooch?Do angels smooch? If not, why so much obsession in lyrics, movies and books about angels and kissing? Are there any more surprises that Edward Kapambwe unveils in his book? Well, there is more. For example, Kapambwe takes us into an in-depth angelic journey in order to understand the extent of angelic involvement in human affairs than ever before. He brings out novel elements that have never been unveiled previously. For example, he recounts how angels visit our stores. They buy the stuff they need before meeting people. Haven't you noticed that no angel has ever appeared nude or with wings in real life. They come already dressed just like us; and that is why we have been unable to identify them. We are surrounded by angels both good and evil. Evil angels no longer transform themselves into humans. Only good angels still do. Since there are no shops in heaven, where do they get the stuff they wear? Besides that, what happens to these apparels after being used? The author asserts that angels donate them to Thrift Stores such as, Goodwill, the Salvation Army and others. Donating to Thrift Stores is an ingenious way to make them accessible to both the rich and the poor. Have you wondered why they do that? It is a deliberate move they take so that ordinary people could buy things worn by angels. That begs another question, why do they do that? The answer is amazing. They do that on purpose because they know that to wear stuff worn by holy angels comes with tremendous blessings. This book explains that point persuasively. In addition, the author contends that these angels are highly disciplined entities such that they never steal anything from banks, stores or homes of rich people even though they able to do so without being seen. Angels are invisible (spirits) entities. However, they have the ability to transform themselves into regular human beings. The author throws in another insight. He argues and states that helping strangers gives a person the best chance to be visited by an angel. The author then explains to us the probabilities of being smooched by an angel. Do angels smooch? That question points us in the direction of social theology than philosophy. It is not a new question but the framing might be. Many theologians have debated extensively the narrative found in Genesis 6 where angels came on earth and married daughters of men. With his masterful insight and knowledge of theology and philosophy, the author gives a different angle of the workings of angels among us. It's not a book to miss. If there is one book you need to read in your lifetime, Do Angels Smooch should be on top of your list.

He spends the last twenty years of his life developing and funding programs to help the poor in his beloved New York City. He despises the Socialist/Communist Regime in power in Washington and New York state which create and oversee social anarchy and a looming Depression. They eliminate police departments and Detective organizations to usher in an era of lawlessness. For RK, this environment is ideal to perform the perfect crime. RK's donation of $70M to build a new hospital wing for the treatment of cancer is stolen by cybercriminals. On a trip to Switzerland to solicit the help of Interpol to solve the crime, he discovers a novel drone, which over the next six months, he perfects into a lethal murder weapon called a DroneViper. This Indiana Jones-style movie script is about how RK eliminates the criminals one-by-one around the world. In the end, RK dies, probably from cancer, with the personal satisfaction that nobody will discover how the cybercriminals really died.
SYNOPSIS OF A CONVOCATION OF FIVEWhat is the value of an ordinary guy's life and who assesses that value? As Tom Albright approaches the end of his days on earth, five individuals meet to evaluate his life. They begin with hearing and commenting on a baby boomer who grew up with illusions of battlefield glory only to lose those illusions during the turbulence of the 60's. Likewise, Tom immersed himself in idealized visions of athletic glory, academic success, racial harmony, romantic love, and religious faith. Like many of his generation, his life story centers on the clash of untested ideal concepts with the blunt, inescapable forces of reality. In this examination of Tom's life, the five who form the convocation will learn as much about themselves as they do about Tom. Like the subject of their study, some will pass on to a new life.
