However, some teams finish the season with a losing record.” There are 162 games in the major league schedule. No team in history has won them all. There are 162 devotionals in The Winning Season. They deliver biblical truth, illustrated with stories from baseball history, to help the reader see that every day of the season of life can be victorious when guided by faith in Jesus Christ and him alone.

In the summer of 1960, a ten-year-old girl was playing with her sister in the living room of their Midwestern family home. That was not so unusual. What was unusual was the image on the black-and-white television screen that caught her eye. It caused her to stop dead in her tracks. It was just a commercial, but she didn’t want to miss a second of it! It was telling a story! Little did she know at the time, in many ways, it was telling her story.What she saw was the ship called SS Hope, a floating hospital ship. It traveled the globe with doctors and nurses to far-reaching destinations. Their mission was to give medical care to people where few others like to go. From that moment on, that little girl knew her destiny. God had a plan for her.She became a nurse, she joined the army reserve, and deployed to Saudi Arabia in Desert Storm, Kosovo, and Iraq. She went where few wanted to go; she saw what few wanted to see. Her passion was to take care of our nation’s wounded heroes. Go with her as she journals her way through the frustrations, demands, failures, and successes in a combat support hospital to a war zone during Iraqi Freedom.Wisconsin nurse deployed to Iraq in 2006 with the 399th Combat Support Hospital.https://youtu.be/uPdET5nHnjk

For Christian educators who desire to hear God’s voice specifically addressing their daily work, this daily devotional offers inspiration, challenge, and encouragement to help live out their call from a biblical, God-centered focus. Whether teaching in a private or public school or homeschooling children, a Christian teacher can benefit by a daily orientation to the call of God on his/her life as an educator. Each day’s offering inspires, challenges, and encourages teachers to continue in the calling God has placed on their life to educate and facilitate spiritual growth in their own professional and personal life and in the lives of their students. Each month is planned according to the rhythms of a traditional school year: August focuses on preparing for the school year, and September addresses new beginnings and getting to know their students, for example. Each week is themed to have a specific focus that reflects the events of a typical school calendar. Written as God speaking to His children, each day’s message begins with focused scriptures for the week, then addresses common challenges in the daily life of a teacher. The format asks educators essential questions at the beginning of each unit, with scriptures aligned to that unit’s theme. Each unit offers a collection of short, inspirational devotionals ending with reflection questions designed to reinforce the principles found in God’s Word.

The lands along the Kansas-Missouri border saw hostilities and violence years before the Civil War officially erupted in April of 1861. People had to choose a side as neutrality was not tolerated by either belligerent. Those who tried to stay out of the fight were swept away. After the Camp Jackson affair in St. Louis, a young merchant decides it is time to cast his lot with the secessionists to defend his home and business. Carried away from his mercantile by war, he finds the brief conflict he expected was not to be. The months become years of battles, deadly political intrigue, and a journey of thousands of miles. Suffering great loss in body and spirit, his search for retribution becomes something else entirely. This story is a historically true account of the South’s waning years and Sterling Price’s raid through Missouri in 1864. The battles and all the locations were real ones, as well as the characters with proper names.

The “essential question” and “impetus” which drives my book is the critical question: Why are our families, to “include” the Christian family, in such disarray? This short yet potent work provides the reader with the meaning and composition of the family as God sees one of his most valued institutions: “the family.” When we endeavor to allow the family beginning with the “father” to take its rightful role and place, many of the societal ills and struggles to include issues within the modern-day church will be delimited and/or eliminated. Some of the simplistic roles as ordained by God include, but are not limited to: father as mentor, mother as nurturer, and son and daughter as builders of family name. These key ingredients paired with integrity will take the modern-day family back to its rightful place as we, as a world community endeavor, to answer the question: “What’s wrong with my house?” and seek our answers from the living Word of God.

The beginning of my routine exercises was not easy, especially after my spinal injury. I have been walking one hour or more a day for some time now. I have faith to carry me through the storm. I enjoy walking most of the time by myself; and now that I am losing weight, there is no way I will look back. Walking is free, and it is my daily routine that powers me to control and maintain my blood glucose level.

A living lost soul in this book can be a life from the old life to a born-again new life in Jesus. This book is my life of darkness without Jesus, but when Jesus touched me, I was free to worship and praise him for giving his life for me. I was that person walking in the darkness and now have seen this great light (Isaiah 9:2). This light has shone, do you want this? It’s a great gift from a Holy King who love like nobody can touch his love. Love is his character; look what he did for me; he will do it for you too. Great grace of this wonderful King of Kings. Thank you and enjoy God’s book of his story. I got a chance to tell it.

John 10:10 (NIV) says that “a thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come so they may have life. I want them to have it in the fullest possible way.” We can’t have abundant life if we are harboring grudges and holding onto unforgiveness in our hearts. Don’t allow the enemy to rob you of your destiny. Release forgiveness and walk in the freedom that Jesus died for us to have. Let today be the day that you get your heart healed and walk in victory.

Life is not always perfect, even when you walk the journey of being called into the ministry. In fact, sometimes you might lose your way. In trying to please the world and all who walk in my world daily, I lost who Ruby was. It was difficult for quite some time to even want to allow God in. That’s sort of crazy, because I knew that He not only called me His daughter, but He knows my every day journey.The smiles were false, and it was beginning to be hard to pretend. Then one morning, as I sat in my bath and attempted to read my devotionals, God came to speak healing over me. I sat in a tub for an hour, allowing God to reach me as he spoke a love language over me. He only asked me to listen. He kept this conversation simple as He made His way through the alphabet, explaining His love for me.As I stepped from my bath, I knew that God had wrapped His arms around me in such a way that joy would return to my days. I’ve known God all my life, but in October 2018, God came and spoke His love in such a way that healing began for me. This day in my ministry began new life for me. This day was the day that I began knowing God and His love for me in a new way.

The word Shattered refers to the sound akin to when someone crashes a car. Usually the windshield gets shattered or broken.
