Quince Melville has survived his introduction to the Revolutionary War, though a limb lighter. In this second book in the trilogy, he has become a hardened warrior capable of vicious soldiering under the harshest conditions; in his continued amorous soldiering, not quite so vicious. As the war nears its conclusion, to the delight of the colonists, a new enemy emerges, crueler than the redcoats and their allies. Things will not become appreciably better. Perhaps it will in the third novel of the trilogy!

Experience is the best teacher. This book is based on the truth concerning the centuries of unfair treatment of people of color here in America and abroad. All people need to understand the higher spiritual purpose behind the lasting tribulations. The greater goal is to make people of color aware that they are indeed Israelites. They are God's chosen people that emerged from the Twelve Tribes of Israel spoken of in the Bible. According to the word of God, mankind's journey to Arsareth/America began with the Israelites being the first people to reside in Arsareth. Ten of the Twelve Tribes of Israel founded their new homeland here in a country where no man had ever dwelt. They were and are the Native Americans. Now in the minority, Tribes, Hispanics, and Blacks are at the bottom of the totem pole. They are subjected to racism, health and wealth disparities, education and opportunity inequities, and police brutality. Being Black in America examines the cause, the effect, and the history of the people of color. None of which is by chance, but of prophecy.

I was knocked down by a shell. As I found myself laying on my back, the half-full flamethrower tank pinning me to the ground, a North Korean soldier came at me with his bayonet. In his quilted suit, he seemed to come out of nowhere. I can still see his face and smell the garlic on his breath. As he lunged at me, I was able to turn, but he stabbed my upper left arm with his bayonet. I had a double-barrel shotgun taped on the arm of my flamethrower and gave him both barrels. I think I blew him in half. The battle kept going on around me. Weapons fire was all around me, and I heard other boys being hit and falling. I laid there feeling weak as blood from my deep wound seeped out on the Korean dirt. I must have been ready to blackout when I heard a familiar voice say, "e;Joe, if I don't close up that wound, you'll die."e; (Paragraph italicized.)From growing up in a small Pennsylvania town, through Marine Corps boot camp and training, and finally, remembering and coping with buried memories decades later, Korean War combat veteran Joseph Barna recounts his life events that will put a tear in your eye and a smile on your face.

This book is intended to be an encouragement to all readers that no matter how difficult life is, we can always trust the Lord and know that He will be there for us and help us through tough times. As you read my story, you will see that I had a very difficult childhood with abuse and a self-destructing young adulthood with alcoholism and constant fighting. However, with God's help I was able to run away from darkness and find shelter in His mercy. Throughout my life I have had a lot of fear, sadness, and depression because of my father's abuse, but God was always there with me. Although during my childhood I did not believe in God, now I know that He protected me all the time. I could have died many times due to the abuse, but I am still alive. When I learned about God and accepted Him as my personal Savior, my life took a 180 degree turn for the better. From a drunkard and a street fighter I became a sincere Christian who loves everybody. God also blessed me with a wonderful wife, and I am so thankful for that. I cannot praise the Lord enough for all the things that He has done for me. With the Lord's help I was able to overcome the difficulties. I did it and you can do it, too! Just believe in Jesus as your personal Savior, and you will see the positive changes in your life.

What does the Gospel mean? That's a question I've asked hundreds of Christians, and for the most part, the response was always a look of bewilderment and confusion. Sadly, I dare say that many Christians do not know the real meaning of the word Gospel. Some say it means preaching hellfire and damnation. Others believe it means to always confess and repent of our sins. But what if the Gospel means Good News and that, in reality, it really is good news?This book was written in hopes of helping the confused Christian (as I was for so many years) that's had religion shoved down their throats to understand that Jesus didn't come to establish a religion-ship but a relation-ship based on the work He did, not the work we do. I hope this book helps you the reader to come to a glorious conclusion that The Gospel Really Is Good News and that the real issue is not the devil, sin, or our piety-things we've been taught to focus on-but that the real issue is Jesus Christ and Him alone, what He has finished for us at the cross and how we are completely complete in Him.

This novel dramatizes the underdog's fight for survival against an unjust system. It is about the brutal, shocking, and horrific world of Navy boot camp during the Vietnam conflict. The story's protagonist is nineteen-year-old Carl Travis, an anti-war activist who flunks out of Kent State because he spends more time protesting the Vietnam War than keeping up with his studies. He then forfeits his student deferment and risks being drafted into the Army. He does not want to flee to Canada to escape the draft nor does he want to go to prison for five years, so he enlists in the US Navy's hospital corps to avoid combat and the killing. He enters basic training and boasts to his shipmates about rioting at Kent State in May 1970, when National Guardsmen fired on protestors and killed four students. Carl's Navy superior officers learn about his anti-war past and threaten to make his life a living hell if he stirs up any trouble with his shipmates. Carl endures the harassment and brutal disciplinary action against him for resisting Navy rules and regulations and for protesting the mistreatment of other recruits. He struggles to survive and regain his identity, freedom, and dignity in this vulgar, abusive, sometimes violent, and dehumanizing world of the military.

OverflowYou prepare a table before meIn the presence of my enemies.You anoint my head with oil.My cup overflows.(Psalm 23:5 REV)I used to ask the Lord to fill my cup. Then one day, it occurred to me that if my cup was only filled, then that's only enough to bless and hold me. So I prayed to the Lord about it. He (?) me to my heart a to the Holy Spirit, who put a little extra somethin', and I began to experience an abundance of the Spirit. I thanked God that day because I had experienced overflow. Overflow allows every willing human being to spread that extra spiritual energy to someone whose cup isn't quite full. It's commonly manufactured from within and spills out like lava from a volcano. It is extremely contagious. But the feeling is simply unbeatable. Christians that are working a foundation from inside out most times will always experience overflow. Overflow is that substance that starts churning and burning within your soul. It's too much to keep to yourself. Like patterns of the Holy Spirit, it spews out without permission or warning. That's when you know deep down in your soul that you have experienced exactly what you were created for: sharing the joy and good news of Christ, helping others, lifting spirits. Once you experience overflow, it's an act that you will crave for eternity. When our cup is full, we begin to feel inadequate and may even sometimes question God, especially when we see others going through hard times and we can't help. We tend to feel useless. We need overflow to conquer those feelings. The Bible is always urging us to help and serve others. If you are only serving God and not serving your fellow brother or sister, then sadly that person will not experience overflow.
