In today's marriages, it is unfortunate that people seem to deny God and believe that their human standards alone are enough to keep the marriage going.In this book, the authors, Pastors Ade and Grace Okonrende, renowned marriage counsellors who have ministered worldwide, outlined in the simplest language how couples can stay together in unity and love to fulfill their God-given potentials.Having had the opportunity to read the original manuscript, I believe that church leaders and people from all walks of life will immensely benefit from reading this great book, which addresses issues that most writers on marriage failed to identify or address.It is very thrilling to realize that you can determine the sex of your unborn child. The procedure is clearly stated in this book as authenticated in the Bible. The authors have clearly demystified the challenges of determining the sex of your intended child. They applied this method to choose and raise one girl and three boys.--Rev. Dr. Lawrence Tette

"Waiting is inevitable." I am sure you have already heard the words "change is inevitable." I would like to propose that there is another word that can be included in the inevitable list, and this word is waiting.We are in an era where most people use a microwave, enjoy eating fast food, and like everything to happen right now. Most of us do not like waiting. In this book, While You Wait, we are going to learn the following:* Waiting on God is inevitable.* God hasn't changed amidst the changes in this fast-paced world.* The process of growing in intimacy with God* The benefits of waiting* Why God allows seasons of waiting* What we should do while waitingWherever you are in your season of waiting, whether it's for healing, an increase in finances, a promotion, a spouse, or maybe for the next level in your relationship with God, let me encourage you to wait with the right attitude because God has your seasons and times in His hands.Susan Musgrave Nee Isidore has been fully committed to the Lord for over twenty-four years.

This book offers a unique perspective on the history of the African American people without being offensive to others and offers this history from the perspective of being an African American living here in the United States of America. The book was written from the perspective of its author who was born in the late '50s, experienced adolescence from the late '60s to the early '70s entered adulthood in the middle '70s, which has given the author of this book, the entire spectrum of life here in America pre-integration (segregation), as well as living in the post-integration era. The struggles of African Americans were truly real, and this book offers a concise and rather limited overview of African American history.Nevertheless, the book offers pertinent and timely information still very much needed today. Being biblically inspired as well, this book contains both scripture and scriptural commentaries. Having the influence of the author's faith intertwined, this is a no-holds-barred reading. In addition, the book contains records of the likes of historical violence-filled voter suppression and the groups who initiated such violence against the African American voter, along with the movers and shakers of political empowerment for African Americans throughout this still-young history of African American in this country.The book contains historical essays on lynching, along with the achievements of African Americans as well, and despite all the roadblocks that have been put in from of them, African American continues to thrive. Finally, the book hopes and serves to motivate African Americans and others in an attempt for those to believe in those "better days" for themselves and others as well, here living in the United States of America.

Proper communication is too important to ignore and easier than you think to achieve. The problem is our education system has failed to give students the skills to adequately convey a given message. In the early 1900s, authors William Strunk and E.B. White used simple but powerful instruction on improving grammar and usage in their classic book, The Elements of Style. America the Grammar is the modern-day version. This book will help improve the grammar and communication skills of students in middle school, high school, and college whether in a traditional institution or homeschool, with clear examples based on history and strong, Judeo-Christian and American values. It will also help anyone who could use a refresher. Remember this: We do not learn grammar and communication to correct people when they make a mistake. We learn it because it is a necessary and powerful skill to succeed in life. Join me.

This book is about Bible stories, so whoever read them will read these stories of the Bible the right way, and learn them all the right way, and will be absolutely sure that it is the right way, and that way you won't never ever have to take no one else's words for it again, and have no doubt because it is completely undeniable unto you, and you can finally say that you know that Bible, that you have learned the Bible, that the Bible is not confusing to you anymore, it is not no parable and no mystery no more, and the whole entire Bible is true after all.These books are my notebooks from over the last sixteen years, and therefore, all of my books are only my notebooks, and so far as of now, I have written about ninety-five subject notebook tablets of many, many, many books of the Bible stories, like this one. And therefore, I have over thirty thousand pages of books upon books, and more than the world can contain, and way more than enough, more than any average person will read.

"You shouldn't feel like that" is a statement that demonstrates ignorance and unkindness, whether intentional or not. It invalidates the expression of the person revealing his or her inherent feelings and exploits that person's vulnerability. Research shows that this can result in mental health disorders, divorce, suicide, and even mass murders.Everyone has emotional experiences, and all the significant events of life include them; however, the causes and the consequences of emotions are among the least understood and underappreciated aspects of the human experience. Emotional integrity boldly intends to change that.This book presents conclusively that the disciplines of theology, social science, and medical science support the concept of emotional integrity and that the health and well-being of our society depends upon the understanding and acceptance of and adherence to this concept.This will not be an overnight transformation. Centuries of misunderstandings and decades of assertions based on them will need to be challenged until a broad enough base of theologians, educators, and mental health practitioners understand the concept of emotional integrity, accept it, and persuasively promote it. If they are successful, it is very likely that husbands and wives, parents and children, bosses and workers, friends and neighbors will experience healthy and fulfilled personal relationships.

Wow! The title of this book is not what I expected. This book will make you think of how little we actually appreciate what we already have. If you do not walk away with a diamond nugget that will affect your life, I advise a reread.

I read a quote from Oral Roberts that said, "If you want to gain a better understanding of Jesus Christ, read the gospels and Acts three times in thirty days." So I did, and it changed me. Then I went through the gospels and read all the red letters twice. And it changed me even more. I realized that what I was being told in church was only a fraction of what the Lord truly says. It was then that I learned that heaven and salvation are not one and the same. It made me wonder why the church never preaches on Matthew 7:21:Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord," shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Why is that they don't preach on this passage? I think that is a very important statement from the Lord Jesus. Jesus also tells us, not once but twice, Many are called but few are chosen. (Matt. 20:16; Matt. 22:14) This got me thinking, only Christians call Jesus Lord, and many are called to go to church and serve the Lord, but few are chosen. That made me wonder if I would be chosen. Let me ask you this: Are you chosen? Are you promised to go to heaven? This book is a must read for every Christian.

Jaded by the judgmental people from her past, Elizabeth Strutton ends up relocating halfway across the country after heartbreak caused by a devastating life-ending accident, with her three-year-old twins in tow.

Despite her best efforts, she finds that the people she meets and the town of Spring View, North Carolina, itself just might be a place she can truly call home.From a very young age, Lucas Walker knew what his future looked like, that is until life threw him a curveball.

We have all heard ourselves saying these American proverbs. They are as American as apple pie, peanut butter and jelly, and hamburgers. This book shines a bright light into the truth and meaning behind these common sayings of ours. Now using the lens of the Bible to help us see these statements through dialogue, we can understand more accurately if American proverbs contain the truth. The stories are often comical and whimsical but always get to the heart of the matter. As you read each American proverb and the story, you will want to share them with family and friends, and in so doing, you will be imparting the life-changing truths of the Scriptures.

The Bible--God's inspired, unerring, and infallible Word--is truly His instruction manual for life and a moral compass for us all to live by. It tells us what is good, what is bad, what is right, and what is wrong.Unfortunately, many people believe that the Bible is no longer relevant today and was only applicable in biblical times. The Bible itself tells us quite the opposite. The issues and problems we face today are essentially the same as those faced by man in biblical times. Human nature has not changed, and God has not changed! Only the times have changed.The Bible has plenty to say about the issues people encounter every day, from the beginning of life to the end of life. I have addressed many of these in this book: "The Evidence of God's Existence;" "Who Was and Is Jesus;" "Being Saved;" "Forgiveness;" "Trials and Tribulations;" "What Happens When You Die;" "Families and Fathers;" "Humility;" "Worrying;" "Depression;" "The Environment and Nature;" "Racism;" "Abortion;" "Homosexuality;" "Adultery;" "Transgenderism;" "Alcohol, Drugs, and Addiction;" "The Death Penalty;" "The Right to Bear Arms;" "Government;" "Leadership;" "Man's Laws and God's Laws;" "Suicide;" "Money and the Rich;" "Natural Disasters;" "Satan;" "Demons and the Supernatural; "Creation, the Biblical Timeline, and the Age of the Universe;" and others.People today are pretty much the same as people were in biblical times. Basic human nature and the human condition (being born into sin) have not changed. We face the same challenges, the same temptations, and the same trials and tribulations as the early Christians did. The Bible contains advice and guidance on every possible issue or situation we face, if we only look to it for that guidance and direction and pray to God for wisdom and discernment.In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began. (Titus 1:2)That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us. (Hebrews 6:18)All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. (2 Timothy 3:16)The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. (Isaiah 40:8)Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8-9)For I am the Lord, I change not. (Malachi 3:6) Finally, you/we should read the Bible like a love letter, not a textbook! John 3:16 tells us, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Reading what Thomas Jefferson said in the Declaration of Independence--"All Men Are Created Equal"--and the Constitution of the United States, framed and adopted in 1787 and put into effect in March 1789, I want to know if those fundamental laws and principles that are supposed to govern the operation of our states are annulled for people of color.I wrote this book because I needed to say this again and out loud. I want to know if anyone is listening. Are we going to continue to ignore these laws and principles written to govern the United States by our forefathers? If so, please reconsider.We are the people of these United States. We are citizens made equally by our God.

Rick Logan was a long time rock and roll star or more of a twinkle at this stage in his career. His venues may have diminished, but his dedication and enthusiasm were still as strong as ever. He had just finished a gig in a casino in Tennessee and was on his way to North Carolina in a borrowed 1964 Ferrari 250 LM, when he had a run in with the local law. He was sentenced to thirty days of community service and became a ward of the Mountain Pines Nursing Home.Evelyn Burton was the director of the Mountain Pines Nursing Home Alzheimer's Facility. She was very excited about having an in-house rock star to perform and help with the production of her annual Christmas Pageant. It was her recommendation that Rick Logan be placed under her supervision.Rita Beckwith was Evelyn's head nurse. She did not share Evelyn's optimism nor her enthusiasm. Actually, she thought Evelyn was delusional. She failed to see how an egomaniac with no concept of Alzheimer's or Dementia could be anything but a disaster. She was quite sure Evelyn could not rehabilitate Rick Logan and found the whole thing very menacing.Everything in this story actually happened.

The Father's Words: The Light to Our Path reminds how life is a journey filled with joy, sorrow, and unforeseen circumstances. Learning how to navigate through each one is a journey in itself. Each personal story tells how easy it is to misinterpret the events in life and how that leads to inaccurate perceptions. Though many events in our pasts are good, many find us over our heads in uncharted waters scrambling to come out on the other side. However, we come to learn if we allow those experiences to guide our thoughts, we remain victims who are perpetually trapped by the walls we construct for safety, confused by what we think defines us, or constantly searching for purpose. There is a place, God's Word, where we learn that He is our Father, our Creator, who continually oversees His creation, counsels us with His eye on us, and faithfully guides to redeem us to Himself through His Son, Jesus. Every verse presented in these pages tells how God as the Father uses His words to align His children's perspectives, thoughts, and hearts to His. Discover for yourself how He proves by His words that He can be known and trusted. Allow them to be the light to your path to direct and conform you more into the likeness of His Son as you journey through life.
