We do not need to fear Satan in the world near as much as we need to fear him in the church. As in my first book, this addition seeks to evaluation the present condition of the church in the world. The workers of iniquity do not bother those from whom there is no threat. For that reason, this addition seeks to look deep within the modern church to sees where the modern world has slipped in among us, because we were unaware. And so, the Threat from Within Revisited, come to the reader with eyes wide open, exposing the threat of Secular Humanism within the church, the assault on the family, and the unceasing attack on Biblical inerrancy. Let's look at the path of encroachment, brick by brick, that has taken the church to the brink of becoming irrelevant to a lost world looking for a Savior.

Simon's name appeared only once (few hours) in the New Testament in the life of Jesus. Simon is as a common name for Jewish, Greeks, and other people during that time as Joe or Charlie is today. Yet one of these Simons, called Simon of Cyrene, became a figure larger than life in God's plan of salvation for mankind. They called him "of Cyrene" because he was born in a city named Cyrenaica or Cyrene and whose role in the life of Jesus and in God the Father's plan of salvation was to help Jesus carry his cross, during more than half of Jesus's journey to Calvary.According to history, this man was an unknown man, an African from Cyrene in North Africa, east of Egypt, whose life changed forever.Note that it will be very nice if in every fifth station of the cross, Simon of Cyrene would show up as he really was a black man.
One afternoon during a quiet time with the Lord, my eye was drawn to a small angel on the bookshelf. On the angel's skirt was one word: joy. While contemplating on the word, a verse immediately came to mind: "Weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning." Suddenly, the outline for the book came so quickly that I could not write it down fast enough. Even though I wrote this novel prayerfully with the Bible and concordance by my side, I truly feel this work belongs to God 100 percent. As you read through the chapters, may you say I feel like Charles. I'm Kay. My daughter is as outspoken as Evie Grace. I feel like James with the problems of this world on my shoulders. I'm dealing with grief like Thomas. I hope that you find this fast-paced book not only a compelling read but that in the process readers are drawn closer to God and others with love and true unity. A welcoming beacon shining brightly at a time of such darkness and hatred in the world.
When my children were small and my husband in college, I continued to recreate the stories my parents told me as a child about animals having personalities and their teaching abilities. I used the stories to teach my children moral principles through fables. They knew if they went to bed by 8:00 p.m., they would get another chapter of some favorite pretend stories, spun out night after night, chapter by chapter. Many of these stories led to daytime adventures as the kids lifted up flat rocks in search of Harvey Rabbit's magic hole with the candy factory. They made horn toads into pets and few a mouse in box fitted with a running wheel. In 1989, I decided to write down some of those favorite stories to give my now grown children as a Christmas present. My artist sister illustrated these stories for me. The compilation of stories has been sitting in my cedar chest for 30 years, until recently, when I had them re-printed for my now growing family of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. God bless each and every child out there, that they may come to know in their head and heart that we are all God's angels placed here on earth with extraordinary abilities in order to love and bless each other's lives.
The world is drowning in a shoreless and bottomless ocean of beliefs. Almost every conceivable theological, philosophical, ideological twist and turn is in play. Truth has become a rare treasure. Never before have so many people been so informed and so detached. The good news is that you can know for sure and you can make a difference. The purpose of the book is to introduce a biblically solid and objective way of thinking that gives the Christian a proper foundation and advantage for managing encounters with friends, family, work, and classroom. Thinking like a Christian and thinking and acting like Jesus should be the norm. Each chapter is a different approach to some older and newer methods. The truth is that all of reality proves the existence of the Triune-Creator God, and without Him, nothing makes sense. Reality either rests on the absolute God or subjective relativism. There is no neutrality as much as some try to pretend. All ground is common, but none is neutral. Today, the battle lines could scarcely be clearer.America is at a tipping point. Where the roller coaster goes is in the hands of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. This book is my attempt to make a difference in a world that is increasingly chaotic. Peace and blessings to you.
The Book on the Shelf of Love is a historically sound declaration of recycled truths and hidden crumbs that have fallen from past writers, Christian history overlooked and ignored. The gospel should be simple, and what is being revealed goes directly against our traditional biblical teaching. But with the same teaching, this work brings out truth that has been buried. People want the truth. Five hundred years later and here comes the reformation that Luther or Calvin never finished. For centuries we have hid, covered up, and swept under the rug profound information about the Bible, now to interpret complex language of scholars, uncovering important biblical truths. Truth that has been left behind, that has been erased for centuries, that has left us with unanswered questions and important details that could determine the fate of a person's soul.God does not need us to take up for Him. However, Christianity has become so complex. Christianity, its doctrines, leaders, and their agenda plague Christians with doctrinal complexities, and with such a wealth of biblical and historical records, most Christians still do not know enough. God's moral law has been left behind, where men have corrupted the principles of the gospel with messages of passed-down traditions, distorted teachings, and doctrinal unity. This is a real-life reformation, uncovering truth to correct the mistakes of past generations, improving the conditions of the church, strengthening the body of Christian believers, and opening the Christians' eyes to the truth being told. This is an inspired revelation that goes against man-made doctrines where churches have become comfortable and complacent. The world is changing, and while we think we are in a relaxed position in Christ, we are under attack in a spiritual battle for our lives. This is an inspired revelation that will educate and warn the reader to serve the Lord God with all our mind.
What the heck is a prickly pear? Webster defines it as a spiny pear-shaped edible fruit that grows on the Opuntia cacti found in dry arid climates. So, what correlation does a prickly pear have with us? Well, it's been said that the world is our oyster, and we are the pearls it produces. However, in this book we will discover that the world is our cactus and we are the prickly pear people it produces. As prickly pear people, we've learned to love conditionally, where love must be earned and deserved to gain it, and performance is required to maintain and keep it. That is NOT true of God's love! Therefore, this book provides a powerful resource to learn to love beyond what we've been taught. Within its pages, the attributes of true unconditional love are defined in vivid detail to explore what it is and how it acts. There is also the opportunity to reexamine the common beliefs about love and discover the stark contrast between God's love and the way the world loves that has been promoted through the media, music, opinions/influences of our peers, and those in our Christian circles. This is a contemplative, life-changing journey that is sure to inspire us to think, speak, and act differently than the world around us in the way we love one another. If you're ready to find true love in this prickly pear world, your search for a love worth finding begins here!

She was a very curious little goat and was not afraid to approach any other animals, and she was very brave to wander in dangerous areas of the farm.
Soul satisfaction. It's what we all seek yet find so elusive. In this crazy, upside-down world, where it seems we walk a tightrope of fear, insecurity, and helplessness, where can we go, or to whom can we turn for relief?When we realize that we were made by God and for His glory, we understand that in that glorious creation, we were given a soul. Our souls are invisible to doctors but very special to God because that is the inside part of us that is made to know Him. It is also the part of us that can only be fully satisfied by relationship to Him.God invites us, even welcomes us, into relationship with Him. It's a high privilege to talk with Him and work with Him. In these short, anecdotal devotionals, the attributes of God are interwoven with daily experiences and supported by Scripture. May you see God in a refreshing way through reading them, and may your soul be satisfied to overflowing.
