While this is a novel--a work of fiction--it is also a glimpse into part of the world of the intelligence operations carried out by the United States of America. It is not the stuff of James Bond or Jack Ryan. It is the stuff of real people that work their jobs, often with long hours, sometimes with their lives at risk, almost always without any public recognition. It is usually a satisfying job, but one still rife with bureaucracy and the normal government politics.

The "silent night" of Jesus's birth, as the popular Christmas carol would lead us to believe, is not so silent after all! In the account of the nativity of the Savior and what happens before and after that holy and blessed night in Matthew 1:18-2:18 and in Luke 1:5-2:40, there are twenty-one voices of individuals or groups giving their own perspectives on this sacred event. These twenty-one persons or groups form three circles of seven each who respond in significantly different ways to the nativity. This collection of Christmas poems is designed to give a voice to each of them and to encourage all of us to raise our own voices in praise of the newborn King!

Teaching for the first time? You know the big picture--Bloom, Piaget, Skinner, Marzano, Ruby Payne, et al. What about the little things? The day-to-day stuff?

I wish a resource like this was available when I started teaching in 1985, and I hope that this book will help you thrive in your first year in the classroom.

Alesha finds herself in a world where her internal instincts are contrary to what she is often taught. In some instances, what she has been taught as a negative is now being promoted as a positive. It is a world of confusion and misdirection, so her choice had become to seek refuge where other individuals thinking as she does might reside. However, the allegorical trip there is not so easy, nor is the path always clear. This is the first part of her journey through the villages, lands, and cultures where many of the locations she passes through are hauntingly atrocious, others magical, while many are ridiculous. Nonetheless, they are all along the route she has taken in order to reach her final destination.

The purpose of The Spiritual Self-Assessment Interview is for individuals to take a deeper look at their spiritual relationship with God and evaluate themselves on how well they are living out what they profess. This first-of-its-kind book will encourage you and provide you with a tool to help measure areas that can be improved upon. It will also give you a sense of accomplishment as you will vividly see areas where you have done well. This is a fresh perspective to challenge the way we think in our current culture. We are evaluated at our place of work and given a ninety-day review, a midyear review, and an annual review. We then strive to do our very best to improve in areas where we fall short for our employer. If we are willing to challenge ourselves to do better due to the critique of man, how much more should we be willing to do whatever it takes to improve ourselves for our God?

Hi, my name is Leslie, and I am a sixty-eight-year-old woman. I remember when I was a young child that I had a lot of problems with the way I learned, so I wasn't one of the best little people during that time of my young life. You all are God's special people. I was also, but at the time I didn't know it. Now I do. So, boys and girls and young at heart, you are the people whom I am focused on. I write these books because I love people. I don't have any other reason than that. I pray you will get close to God while you are young; God is really worth knowing while you are young. My subject is really about the way people treat people, and inside this book is to try to show that people can be wrong when they think they are right. I have seen that children can be cruel. I was once a mean girl, but I thought that would have changed a little by now. I guess I have been wrong. With some good advice and help, I am positive that children can be kind and caring. In the story, you may say what the little girl does to the horse really doesn't matter, but we know what is wrong and what is truly right, no matter if he is an animal or a human being. God has given us that built-in knowledge that one day we will need, to help guide us in the right direction. Don't throw away the present that God gives us freely.Bible verses to read: Matthew 5 and 7, 1 Samuel 18:1-4, 1 Corinthians 13:11-13My other books are The Wingless Eagle: A Story of Hope, Shining Spirit Lets His Love Shine, and A Weak Little Tree Beside Me.
