Women have been told for centuries by others who God says they are and the roles they should play in our society. This is a journey outside your Sunday school, one size fits all teaching. This is a journey into the things we have been told are not acceptable to share. This is a journey into the life of a woman who broke societies molds, statistics, and views. This is your journey into what God says about the woman He created. This is your journey into finding H.E.R. I was born and raised in Florida and currently reside there with my family. Writing has been a passion of mine since my elementary school years. As women we get caught up in the society and even the churches view of who we are supposed to look like and be. I wanted a way to tell women that God made them for so much more than appeasing these views and standards.
What can happen when you run away from God's calling?

People in general seem to not focus on the most important thing in life. we have a tendency to not care about life after death even though we have been urged to seek first the kingdom of God and his Righteousness. I remember as a fourth grader to find the reason for my existence . I could not accept the fact that I had been created and allowed to live and then exist anymore. My second desire was to become a Dentist so I could help people . I accomplished both. I learned how to receive eternal life and how to share this very important information to others while giving God the Gory for all he has done.

On April 12, 1972, twenty-three-year-old Susan Brotherson found herself in a situation she never thought she would be in. A single mom facing an unexpected pregnancy without the support or funds needed to raise another child, she felt that abortion was her only option. Motivated by fear and shame, she underwent the procedure. She didn't realize, however, how lasting and devastating the effects would be. Redemptive Love by Susan Brotherson is an inspiring book which follows the author's journey of healing and transformation after abortion. Detailing the emotional pain she experienced in the years after, Susan describes how the enemy tried to derail her faith with lies and accusation but that through finding a supportive church and receiving baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues, she gained the spiritual strength to overcome and began to seek opportunities to help other women who were dealing with the aftereffects of abortion and prevent others from making the same decision she did. Throughout the book, the overarching theme of how God put Susan's broken pieces back together rings true, with the Lord revealing to her that she had been carrying twins and giving her the opportunity to encounter them in the heavenly realm and name them. Susan's testimony is a powerful one that reminds readers that God is good and faithful to bring healing to every area of our lives and restore our joy when we surrender to Him, and through her words, readers will be encouraged that it's not too late, they aren't beyond saving, and their story isn't over.
As a person of faith, we believe in the things we cannot see. We believe in God. We believe in eternal life. We believe in the soul of human beings. In the rational world, we believe that one plus one equals two. However, there is something within us that compels us to believe that one plus one also equals three. I believe that unity will one day come from diversity. It is my hope that more of us, will release our blind trust in rules and politics. That we will painfully and faithfully unpack the reality of race, the social construct, that puts one against the other, and begin to see that in the landscape of the US there is really just us. While we all seek to negotiate this short path we call life, may we long to live and love like Jesus, til the war is won. Dr. M.

What happens to seed when planted in fertile soil? In a natural sense when a farmer plants seed in fertile soil, he expects his crop to yield fruit according to the seed planted. The soil was chosen by the farmer as was the seed. When a farmer plants he expects the seed to germinate and grow and eventually produce fruit. Fruit that could be counted for some hundred, some sixty, and some thirty. God who we can say is the farmer has chosen the soil and called it "good ground" meaning as a believer "I was predestined". "He predestined us to be adapted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will" Ephesians 1:5 (KJV). Similar It was the pleasure and will of plant seed, in his chosen soil, expecting to yield fruit. So, Jesus chooses the same analogy for those who are called, choosing to plant his "word" on the fertile soil "me" and every other believer. The book will contain how the word of God which is seed has grown and will continue to grow as it bears more fruit. Even as the farmer expects to yield fruit because of his investment "labor" so does Father God expect for every believer to yield him a return, and the return is fruiting some hundred, and some sixty, and some thirty. The Father in Faith expects His children to produce what He hopes for, meaning He expects us to bear fruit. The evidence not seen by His children, however seen by God the Father. Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen Hebrews 11:1 (KJV). The seed planted in choice soil will produce fruit. This author being "good ground" received the seed, heard the word of God and understood it which bear fruit and brings forth some a hundred, some sixty some thirty Matthew 13: 23 (KJV). The book contains the evidence of seed being planted in good ground. Margaret Majors is a teacher, a wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Her ongoing learning is equivalent to the progression of life. Like the life that is in a seed when it is planted in fertile ground and given the necessary sun/son needed for it to grow! Inspired by my heavenly Father to write about the evidence seen from this walk of faith he has for all His children. One of Margaret's main investment of time is enjoying uninterrupted time with Him. Followed by the time with her husband especially on our weekly date night that we have kept with for years, being the proof and evidence of our love affair for 35 years.

In "So Far...A Life Lived For Others," you'll read about the story of a young teenager named David. With his ailing parents and three younger siblings needing assistance, he is faced with the difficult decision of becoming their caregiver or of just moving on living his own life. As he embarks on the journey of caregiving, David faces many challenges and struggles along the way bringing him to a point of frustration and discouragement where he wanted to quit. Until one day, David receives help from an old friend which enables him to be encouraged, strengthened and have the renewed faith and love to fulfill the ministry of giving care. My name is David Robles and I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Born into a humble family but rich in knowledge of the family life.

That is why I wrote this book titled, So Far...A Lived For Others. It is dedicated with gratitude to God and all the caregivers around the world letting you know that you are not alone.
YOU ARE VALUED, ACCEPTED, AND LOVED Most everyone has been through a situation that will change the dynamics of the rest of their lives. How we move forward can either cripple our future or help us find hope and healing which leads to a life of victory. It boils down to choices we make. We can remain in our pity party ask God "why" did this happen to me or we can ask God "what" do you need to do in me now that this has happened? If we ask 'why', we often times take on a victim mentality as where asking 'what' can help us learn to trust that God really can use all things for our good and His glory.

For the past year, Mark McGee and his friends have shared some pretty exciting adventures that all began when he moved to Gateway, Florida. They've battled demons, monsters, a dragon, and even the devil himself. Just as it seemed they might get to enjoy what was left of their summer break, Mark is told there is only one way to end the generational curse on his family. He has to go where even the angels cannot go. He must destroy the dragon that has been killing McGee's for hundreds of years. Leaving his friends behind, he must do this alone...or so he thinks. Meanwhile, in Gateway, the dragon is planning to keep a promise he made to Mark in the Valley of the Shadow of Death. "I am about to take everyone from you! Every! Single! Person!" Nobody is safe as Mark's friends and family come together to take on the powers of hell...with a little help. Billy Stancil lives in Jacksonville, Florida, with his wife Rachel. He has been involved in youth ministry, drama ministry, and Christian comedy. His goal as an author is to offer the message of the cross of Christ in an exciting way to children of all ages.

The book sheds light on some Biblical texts and archaeological documents related to successive important events that took place in Mesopotamia (Greek interpretation of ancient Iraq), from the time of creation and until the return of the exiled Jews to their homeland after the fall of Babylonia at the hands of the Persians in 539 B.C. The idea of presenting the two accounts separately in the six chapters, might help to examine and assess whether God is really a God of love, and is able to preserve the dignity of the human race that He created in His image and likeness, and whether the world is stable, prosperous and carrying high moral human values due to the dedication and diligence of these inspired believers to fulfill God's will over the course of 6000 years. On the other hand, to evaluate the contents of archaeological documents extracted from Mesopotamia that reveal the natures, functions, and achievements of the goddess of creation, sky, air, waters, and storms, as well as the accomplishments of gods of Nations, Kings, and heroes of Epics and whether they can be adopted by generations as a constitution for life and inherited cultural civilization. The last chapter introduces some Biblical prophecies that have been literally fulfilled regarding the fall of Assyria and Babylonia, in addition to other prophecies recorded in the book of Revelation that are also supposed to be fulfilled at the end of ages, but not before the collapse of the city of Babylon which was announced by the second Angel in 14:8, nor before the action of the sixth Angel in 16:12, when he (poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East). The Author is an accredited Iraqi civil engineer, who managed and accomplished numerous building and road projects. He was appointed to complete construction projects in the heart of the archaeological site of the ancient city of Babel in the late 1980's. Being proud of the heritage and civilizations of his country that are recorded in the texts of The Holy Bible, and for those reasons, the idea began to develop into the belief that God devoted him to the diligence to produce this book. Despite the fact that the dates of some artifacts precedes the dates of any written text in The Holy Bible, acknowledging that the amount of documents extracted from the Land of Mesopotamia, which is very modest in relation to the enormous volume of information in the contents of The Holy Bible that does not decrease, increase, or change. As matter of fact, The Holy Bible remains as the main source for the success of the archaeological exploration projects, that's the reason why the title of the book begins with "The Holy Bible". The Author presents various opinions selected from some publications that show the multiplicity of assumptions regarding successive topics related to each other. In the absence of concrete evidences and to reach a single conclusion; the remaining possibility is to adhere to one hypothesis or find a suitable new one that corresponds to the sequence of events that took place in Mesopotamia. For instance: The Creation, The existence of the four rivers branching from Garden of Eden (Genesis 2:10), The reality of the flood which was confirmed by the epic of Gilgamesh, Nimrod is not a sinister but a builder, king blessed of God (Genesis 10:9-10), and Abraham crossed the Euphrates River once, not three or four times! (Joshua 24:3)

Using animals of the forest to tell the story, the book centers on Mr. Owl who welcomes a variety of animals whose homes were lost in a fire. He invites them to live together in the tree where he lives. At first, the animals are confused since they did not live with those unlike themselves, but with loving encouragement they finally come together, and the tree becomes the most beautiful of all.

Part personal experience, part history with humor, part Christian teachings, and a narrative of two heavenly visits. This book is written to fill the reader with hope, joy, a little humor, and much encouragement. The starting narrative is a three-year-old showing her faith and trust in God. You find her walking and growing in God's Word and staying the course God planned for her long life on earth. These stories will fill the reader with a better understanding of God's voice and that God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit (one God) is willing and able to communicate with His people in many ways. Such as (1) speaking to you in an audible voice when no one else in the room hears Him speaking. (2) He speaks through dreams and visions. (3) He uses the power of the Holy Spirit speaking through His anointed messengers with tongues and interpretation. (4) His magnificent creation of heaven and earth bears witness, and He speaks through His written Scriptures: reading your Bible. God can send an angel dressed as an everyday person with a message, and you are unaware that an angel is visiting you. Yes, God speaks to people today, and we can be in constant communication with Him. Our job is to listen and have faith: God calls us to be available and faithful.

This is a story of two sisters who God has brought through the wilderness, two sisters who have had immense pain, trauma, heartache, abuse, neglect, rejection, and the heartbreaking loss of a child. We are these sisters, and we are survivors. Better than that, we are thriving, thanks to the love and redemption of Jesus! There is nothing God cannot do. We are living proof of that. No part of either of us wanted to write this story to face the pain all over again and to open wounds that we have pushed down. But the Holy Spirit would not let it go.

American Christians often hear stories of religious persecution in other countries. Bibles considered contraband, witnessing a crime punishable by imprisonment-being a Christian in some parts of the world is a dangerous undertaking. But what if it were like this in the United States as well? Considering the rise of evil in America, could this be our future? One Family Under God: The Final Revival by Ken Nellis is a compelling novel that describes a near-future dystopian America where Christianity is no longer welcome. In this world, the Johnson family has been chosen by God to usher in the final revival in history, with a four-year-old family member becoming an unwitting hero in the chain of events.
