I ALWAYS TOLD GOD, "TAKE ME TO THE DARKEST PLACES, SO THAT I CAN HELP THE LOST."I NEVER THOUGHT OF THE DARK PLACES LOOKING LIKE WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING. I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD CAVE TO TEMPTATION AND BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS NO NEED TO SEE THE JOURNEY THROUGH TO COMPLETION.After losing her husband to brain cancer, the author, Cecily Williams, found herself isolated by the pandemic.

He is the Author - we are the pen.If we give God our time, He will bless us with wisdom and understanding far greater than we could ever comprehend or expect. It is my prayer that by reading my journal entries inspired by Scripture, you too will come to write and allow the Lord to speak into your life through pen and paper.
Society thrives when the family thrives, and family thrives in wholeness and completion. Take the king or queen off a chessboard, and the game doesn't go as it should. You take the queen, and every other piece is exposed and vulnerable. You take the king, and the game is over.Sadly, we've watched incompleteness in the family increase dramatically. There are certainly many factors at play in that reality, but the one I want to target here is a powerful one. It's the Dad factor.Too many times, when our presence is needed most, we as Dads have either quit or allowed our game piece to be taken off the board, leaving the rest of the pieces to function at significantly less-than-full strength.What's the solution? Restoration starts with humble, strong, and faithful men getting back in the game. Men who will love, pour into, and call up sons and daughters to be all they were meant to be. That's the power of a Dad.
The subject of abortion is one of the most contentious and emotionally charged issues of modern times. It divides friends, families, and Christians alike. The abortion issue demands clarity. This book is the result of two Christians seeking a deeper understanding of the issue at the individual level. It is the result of searching beyond the emotionalism that typically accompanies any discourse on abortion. It also seeks to get underneath the superficial Christian response of "because the Bible says so." This book seeks to look at the issue of abortion from both a secular scientific perspective and a Christian perspective to provide a reasoned exploration of this inflammatory topic to help Christians build a broader and clearer perspective.

LESSONS FROM THE FARMERTake a spiritual walk through the past and pastures that will lead you to God's truth and promise in your own life. Travel with Cheryl J. Harris to her childhood and the spiritual lessons God has revealed about Himself and His Word through those experiences. You will see how God is revealing His Kingdom in everyone's story, including your own. Jesus explains evangelism to his disciples as planting in different types of soil (Matthew 13)Paul tells Timothy to be strong in Christ by pointing toward the farmer (2 Timothy 2:6)Paul exhorts the Galatian churches toward endurance when he speaks of perennial planting and patiently waiting for the harvest (Galatians 6:9).A farmer, perhaps more than most, knows something about faith. It's no wonder that God's Word encourages us to look to the farmer and the harvest as an example.
The question Jesus asked, past, present, and future, demands our answer. Whether we know it or not, we answer His question every day. Our path in life is not determined by chance but by us. Regardless of what happens, our words and actions reflect who we say Jesus is. God places memory stones throughout our life; therefore, we all have God's visible hand all along the road of life. As God gave Joshua and the Israelites memory stones to remind them of who He is and what He had done, He provides us with memory stones also. The world is profoundly dynamic in every way. Every day we are bombarded with instability, confusion, and fear of one kind or another. The news media dramatizes lies as truth to sway public opinion. We tend to listen to the media far more often than we fill our minds with the goodness of God. To add to our undoing, family, friends, neighbors, and others pressure us with their viewpoints, trying to persuade us while stealing our peace. If we are to reflect the presence of Christ in this world, we must rise above all the earthly noises and declare and believe Jesus, the Word of God. God has provided His solid foundation of truth throughout all generations. We, along with millions before us, have trusted, lived, and overcome the things of this world based on God's Word, His holy and living Spirit, and His abundant grace. God's Word is easy, straightforward, available, and free of charge. His relentless love, His Word, and His Spirit are clear, concise, and continually breathed into our lives, but how we answer who we say He is, is up to us. Our answer to Jesus's question determines how we choose to live our lives. Every minute of every day, we consciously choose to live for or against the Lord. There is no in-between, no middle of the road. No one needs to tell us that our words, choices, and actions influence everyone around us. No one lives in a vacuum; everything we do and say affects someone. Others notice how strong or weak we stand and in whom we put our trust. Regardless of what we believe or think, our Book of Life contains every Word and action. When our last day on earth comes, and it inevitably will come, "how" we answered Jesus's question tells our story. Our story is our legacy to those around us and the world every day. I write with love, excitement, and anticipation that every reader may continuously ponder and polish our response

Rain, hail, snow, or sleet, we'll be there as soon as we eat. We always liked to eat before we left because we never knew how long we were going to be gone.When you read this book, you will see how God can use ordinary people to show Himself through us. Be a yielded vessel. You will also see how He can take situations that look impossible and make good things happen that you did not see coming. You will also see times God showed up and showed me that He is God, He loves me, and I am His child. These are some of my experiences over the last forty years. I believe you will enjoy it.
The closer you come to God, the closer He will come to you. I found that verse in the Bible to be true. Some scriptures did not yet make sense to me, so I studied harder, and God gave me understanding. I have included them in this book. The knowledge about God travels around the world from one person to another, and so, I am telling you, one person to another.
Do not allow our walk, talk, and performance to be like the scribes and the Pharisees. As born-again believers, we allow God to use us as vessels to show love as an outward sign of Christian love for others that bring glory to God-not to be seen or heard like the scribes and Pharisees. When we pray and seek the face of God, we do it to have a relationship with God and not to be seen of men like the scribes and Pharisees.But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.- John 4:23-24, KJV
THE POKANOKET TRIBE BELIEVE AND LIVE BY A FUNDAMENTAL RULE: THE STRONGER MUST CARE FOR THE WEAKER. THEY ARE TO TEACH BY EXAMPLE THE NEXT SEVEN GENERATIONS THE WAYS OF YESHUA THROUGH STORYTELLING. WHEN EACH GENERATION DOES SO, THE TEACHING WILL CONTINUE UNTIL HE RETURNS AND BRINGS US INTO HIS GLORY.Kepenum Nepauzshad (Harvest Moon), a modern-day Pokanoket Clan Mother and storyteller, tells a story of the time prior to European contact. This was the time of her great-grandmother twelve times over, also a storyteller, Ukquonokquot Ayeateanen (Rainbow Warror). Painting the story of their past, of the events that impacted their community then and continue to impact them, helps to improve their future.
GOD WANTS TO SPEAK TO YOU.Have you ever wondered why you have not been able to stay married? There is hope and restoration for you if you have pondered these questions:Have you lost hope for ever being a happy wife?Have you ever felt that you had to fight for your sanity?Do you know what you want?Do you feel as if no one gets you?Have you cried until you couldn't cry anymore?Have you ever thought to yourself, I just don't get it?You are not alone. You have been braver than you ever got credit for; you have been strong even when others called you weak. You have survived; now it's time to live. It's time to hold your head up high, smile, and see the value in yourself as God does. It's time to stop looking for love in all the wrong places. It is time to realize God has a set appointment with you, and that time is now.
Sometimes our lives have to be completely shaken up, changed, and rearranged to relocate us to the place we're meant to be. -Adrianne Hemenway Lena is taken away from her dysfunctional family and placed in an orphanage in a small Russian town. She is terrified but determined to figure out a way to survive in a place where children live by the rules of their own, wear matching clothes, and are occasionally dragged off to "crazy houses." Will Lena choose to fit in and risk eventually ending up amidst the drunks, the prostitutes, the criminals, and the dead-the dire statistics surrounding orphanage graduates that feed the so-prevalent social stigma and stereotypes? Or will she turn to God and fight for a better future?
In the book of Colossians, Paul mentions a fellow worker named Epaphras as one who is "always wrestling in prayer for you." Our Epaphras, born in 1975, shares that quality, but will he be able to "walk the walk" even through today's darkest valleys?Epaphras hates his "weird" name! Wouldn't you? But only until his dream girl, Teddy, comes back into his life again, and everything changes for the better! Epps organizes and leads a small men's group (MG) at his church and finds that the only problem with serving people is... the people. But despite some, and with the help of others, a terrible thirteen-year-old mystery and a deeply spiritual challenge are both finally successfully resolved.

Father Hunger describes the emptiness that many of us experience because we still crave the comfort and security that our fathers did not provide.Your relationship with your father not only affects your emotional style, your relationships with your children and spouse, and your ability to handle life in general, but it deeply affects the way you think about God.If you're looking for a "feel-good" book about father and child relationships, this isn't it... If you and your father have had a little spat and are still holding a grudge against each other, find another resource to help you! This book is for (1) people who, as children, didn't receive the quality and quantity of love they wanted and deserved from their fathers and (2) others who are currently related to such people. Although I have had a wonderful loving father, I have always experienced a certain "father hunger" because he was away so much during my childhood. I now know what I missed. This book offers so much understanding and hope for all who suffer the various emotional pangs of "father hunger."-Gigi GrahamPast National Advisor for Women's Affairs, RaphaRobert McGee has zeroed in on a topic that has practical relevance for all of us. He has produced a book that is practical, interesting, creative, and sprinkled with good case histories. I found it to be helpful. I predict you will too.-Gary R. Collins, PhDI can't think of a more timely book than Father Hunger. I am surrounded by people-me included-who have grown up with a hole in their heart from an emotionally or physically absent father. Don't look for quick-fix solutions or pious pronouncements in this book. But if you really want to see the hunger pangs subside, this book is for you.-John TrentAuthor, Speaker, President of Strong Families
