As the author states, "This book is written for all those frustrated looking for hope in all the wrong places." This fast-paced fiction novel has a surprise ending and twists throughout, leaving the reader to ponder reality. The author has planted seed that describes the unmerited grace of God. Despite the futility of life, there is hope, because as the author writes, "Life is a gift …". And life is a gift that is not to be wasted.

Journey through the pages as the author takes the reader into time's past and the future in America. Filled with science fiction, time travel and a 2016 futuristic view, this novel is packed with descriptive imagery that takes the reader through the travels and lives of several interesting key characters. You will find yourself wanting to get back to the novel, wondering what is happening to each main character. This fiction novel is a page-turner, filled with intrigue and wonder as the author ingeniously weaves the lives of each person together into an intricate connection.

One will ponder the deeper meaning of life, their purpose and the world upon reading this fiction thriller novel. The book draws the reader into each reality of each character with the author's keen use of word plays and dialogue that sets the tone for each chapter. Each chapter unfolds as if the reader were there. If you enjoy fiction novels that keep you involved with characters that have science fiction, tech talk and time travel, you will enjoy this book.

The message within the pages is life changing. This book will leave you with the thought that happiness is not derived from external circumstances and is quite amazing in that it takes the attitudes of worldliness, exposing that the accumulation of wealth in our materialistic society cannot buy inner happiness; rather the author seems inclined to elaborate and peel away at the philosophy of the American life of "get more and do more" as a great lie that all of humanity has bought into, therefore, exposing the futility of life and living in selfishness that many in our modern day society participate in. This book is quite a wake-up call.

This thought provoking novel is highly recommended to those that wish to reach the secular community or for those that are not really walking with God, but desire something better. An amazing story that will leave an imprint on your soul and a longing for a better understanding of what that hope and faith is.

What Does The Bible Say About Adultery and Is There Hope for the Adulterer - No Innocent Affair

While some in today's modern society may claim that adultery is acceptable, God's Word, as laid out by the author, is extremely clear- "there is no such thing as an innocent affair." Author and lay minister with 50 years experience, Edward F Mrkvicka Jr. with co-author Kelly Helen Mrkvicka have written, No Innocent Affair, that addresses the sin of adultery in our modern day society. While many often ignore this sin, even clergy, Mrkvicka and his co-author, Kelly Mrkvicka, have written a book that gives hope and guidance, while reclaiming lives through the forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ.

Mrkvicka stresses that by far many are choosing death, including spiritual death, in their lives, instead of life by choosing to be part of an adulterous affair. The author gives the reader a firm biblical foundation on the subject of adultery, arms the reader with the truth of God's Word, while exploring society's view on adultery and relationships.

Candidly stating the truth in love, the authors, write with compassion and mercy to others about this often controversial and delicate subject. The author is concerned that this 21st century plague has become such an epidemic, therefore, compelling them to write this book so that help and guidance can be offered to the many innocent that are being led to the slaughter in droves by the sin of adultery without their knowledge. The author notes that most people view adultery as wrong, in fact over 88 percent feel that adultery is a sin; the statistics state, however, that over 77 percent of marriages today have been involved in an adulterous affair.

It is the author's hope that many an eye would be opened and likewise that many will come to salvation through repentance and step into the light of the Lord, versus walking in darkness. This book offers no excuses, nor apologies, but gives the truth of the Word of God. This book is truly a blessing to the body of Christ and to all who read it.

As the author reiterates over and over, there is hope. There is a way out. There is truth and life to be found, but only in Jesus Christ. For there is one hope, and that one hope is the forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ. Come, read, know the truth and be set free.

What began for Ryan Tipton as a journey into the heart of Maricel Arcamo, a woman he met online just six months ago, deepens considerably after he travels halfway around the world just to meet her. After spending one perfect week together, everything quickly crumbles one week later, after he informs his new girlfriend that he never went back to the States after all. This comes as a complete and total shock to her, because she actually saw him off at the airport last week. They even shared a tearful embrace as her family looked on, before he boarded his plane supposedly headed back to the US. But that simply wasn't the case. Instead, he remained in the Philippines another week to meet with two other Filipino women he'd also met on the same online dating site, both of whom were just as much in the dark about his secret betrayals as Maricel.

Full of utter remorse for lying to the woman he knew deep down inside he truly loved, Tipton finally places a frantic 3 a.m. call to a man he met just last week, Ernesto Angeles, owner of Agape Coffee and Pastry Shoppe. After losing a daughter to suicide twenty years ago, a senseless death brought about by nothing more than a broken heart, he and his wife, Gloria, eventually turned their pain and grief into action, and set out to do all they could to help prevent anymore of these senseless suicides from occurring in their city. Since that time, thousands of lives were forever changed, most of them mixed couples, prompting many to believe that God Himself had ordained this loving Filipino couple to become guardian angels for so many of His hurting and needy people. But in an establishment where love, forgiveness and redemption reign supreme, after what Ryan did to Maricel, was it possible for them to ever be added to the long list of satisfied customers, or were they already too far gone for reconciliation..

The author begins first by explaining the difference between prayer and intercession, including information on the different watches and why certain watches are more critical than others. Discussing the three levels of intercessory prayer, the author gives an overview of each: priestly intercession, prophetic intercession and kingly intercession. The author reveals how each of these levels function and intertwine in our lives. The author encourages the reader to desire that which is above in the heavenly realm and teaches how to function in such an anointing

The author encourages readers to function in the anointing in which they were called.

Read More about Times of Trouble: an End Times novel-

Thirty years in the future, the U.S. government has turned into a tyranny as the EPA and TSA grow with ever more power.

Brian, the main character, tells his story from first person point of view. His work with the FBI involves mostly cyber terrorism and actual cases of potential real world terrorism. Eventually, his wife gives birth to their third child, who has Down's Syndrome, which does not please the U.S. Health Administration because there are rules and regulations set-up in cases like these to prevent "genetic freaks" as they like to call them, from sucking up a lot of Health Admin money. Because the Atwoods are born again Christians, they never considered aborting the baby, so now the Health people have to take him away to deal with the problem later.

Meanwhile, the Secret Service decides to recruit Brian to be the personal agent of the President of the United States, David Collins, due to his great work involving a case that dealt with terrorism that would've involved Offutt Air Force Base. Brian's faith is tested every day as he deals with a man who has no morals from what Brian can see, and is tested even more when his wife finds out that she's dying from a fast growing form of breast cancer. Trouble in the rest of the world occurs as Iran attempts to nuke Israel, which fails spectacularly, so Israel takes care of the problem. This brings condemnation from everyone, including the U.S., which takes the side of Iran.

When the re-election of Collins doesn't turn out the way he wanted it, he and his people declare the election nullified because of supposed "irregularities" with the ballots. Collins claims that the new President-elect may take the seat sometime in the middle of next year, if everything looks to be sorted out. Collins purges his staff of what he considers unloyal people, including Brian. At the same time, he loses his wife, but regains the son he thought he had lost.

Brian moves back to his family home in Nebraska, where we follow what happens as the country slowly falls apart. Events play out as Brian and his family sees the End Times approach.

Author, Pastor, Robert P. Holland, from his many years of experience as a Pastor and a believer has written a comprehensive booklet on "The Chosen Fast", as spoken of in Isaiah 58, while comparing the purposes, meanings and technicalities of Traditional Fasts, the Daniel Fast, to include Public Fasts and 21/40 day Fasts for individuals.

Holland addresses, "The Chosen Fast" as a lifestyle that should be embraced by every believer. If you find yourself lacking passion and drive, this book will inspire you to come up higher, and will ignite in the heart a passion to serve others, find wisdom and serve the Lord with all your heart, mind, body and soul. The author also dispels many of the false presumptions Christians may have on the subject of fasting and prayer alike, causing readers to examine their lives through the perspective and lens of "The Chosen Fast" as spoken of in Isaiah 58.

Filled with Wisdom and Truth from the Scriptures, the author addresses the lifestyle of a believer and what that lifestyle is to emanate from the born-again, spirit-filled Christian. This Chosen Fast is the culmination of Old Testament and New Testament teachings on what believers are to do while we wait upon Christ's return. Written to help encourage and exhort others to live as they should and as Christ commanded until He returns, the author has compiled an easy-to-read and fast-paced booklet that will not only educate and encourage readers on fasting, but instills the desire to live in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth and to be a doer of the Word, rather than only a hearer of the Word.

This is a much-needed book in today's materialistic, self-centered society that will benefit the body of Christ greatly and the world fulfilling the Great Commission. This book is a highly recommended read for every Christian. Considering and acting upon these teachings which follow Jesus' teachings will revolutionize your life, your walk with God, your prayer life and intern you will find new life, Jesus' life.

Overcoming in the Lap of The Father by Author T.R Lipscomb

In The Father's Lap

"What shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?" (Rom 8:31 & 32 NASB)

Doubt, pain, frustration, confusion, tears, a roller coaster of emotions; all have been my companion over the past few months. Reassurance, reminders, expressions of love, holding me close, peace where there is no peace; all have been The Father's response to my questions.

Yesterday's Daily Bread devotional was in Romans 8, my favorite NT chapter. When I checked my email and Facebook this morning I am again edified by the things I read. I am an emotional mess and He knows it. I need a daily reminder of His love for me and He is very much aware of it. I fight doubt as I recover from losing yet another house, fight fear as I face a mountain of debt and fight intense emotional pain as I face another Resurrection Day without my children. The loving Father that He is brings my attention back to Himself.

Over the past few days He has brought many reminders to me as I keep myself in a place where He feeds my spirit. He has good plans for my future (Jer. 29:11). He will restore the years the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). He has His Spirit interceding on my behalf with groaning too deep for words (Rom 8:26-27). He helps me to wait for Him, to keep His way (Ps 37:34).

How much longer must I wait for the promised restoration of what was taken from me? How much longer must I wait for the return of my prodigal children? How much longer must I wait for the promised Joy that comes in the Morning? I don't know, but I do know the God of the Impossible. I do know that He loves me. I am even more reminded of this as we have just celebrated the Holiest weekend of the year where we remember our Savior's death and resurrection. He is risen – so how could I continue to wallow in my pain and sorrow? He who spared not His son will also freely restore to me what I am waiting for, just as He restored Job when the fullness of time has come.

Struggling Through Intense Hardships - Elizabeth Chalker's Hanging On by the Scratch Marks My Nails Left Behind Raw Faith

 has written a powerful, God inspired book that will encourage and help strengthen anyone who reads it. If you are in the midst of suffering, or struggling through intense hardships, then this book will provide solace and hope to pull you out of the darkness and into the light!

About Elizabeth and her book: The following is taken with permission from Elizabeth's website. Foreword (from Elizabeth's book)

I don't know if there is really a way for anyone to understand the depths of pain and suffering from which this work of Elizabeth's springs. As one who has witnessed this firsthand, being physically with her in the day-to-day more than anyone else, it's still unfathomable to me what she goes through. The reality of her minute-to-minute existence is far too unbelievable to wrap the mind around. Most of the writing was done in a very dark, cold room in complete silence. Much was done with the computer on Elizabeth's lap, with her typing with her eyes closed, as the light even from the computer screen was too much, too painful. All of it was done with a continual headache/migraine, as those only change in level of severity. She worked in small increments in between excruciating, unbearable physical pain and exhaustion, and moments of reprieve where the physical pain/symptoms and migraines were "bearable enough."

Most of us will never know the loneliness that she experiences or the fear as she watches uncontrollable things happen to her body each day. Even though I am with her as often as possible, and she is never out of my thoughts or my heart, most of this she suffers completely alone, except for her constant companion and angel of God, Symon.

Yet in this existence, that is impossible to call a life, she has never wavered in her faith. She has sought, screamed, challenged, asked tough questions, and been candid in her queries, and also candid in all of what she experiences. However, she has never abandoned her faith. Additionally, she has always been there to support those she loves in spite of the constant abandonment, with words of faith, encouragement, love, and wisdom, always giving beyond her strength and capabilities and often paying a huge price of increased physical pain and other symptoms for days or weeks, as her own health deteriorates.

To me, she is the epitome of what God wants for all of us. To love where there is no evidence, give when there's nothing left and believe where there is nothing left to hold onto except "the scratch marks our nails left behind."

Elizabeth, you are and will always be a daughter, very dear friend, and mentor to me. I congratulate you on completing this amazing project, this work of raw faith. Your perseverance is astounding and awe-inspiring. To witness the tortures you live every second of every day, the loneliness, the travesty, and injustices, and then to see the incredible genuine love you are, is truly phenomenal. God shines through you so brilliantly, such is evident to all who know you and know of you—and is equally evident through the God-inspired writing you have completed and now share with the world. I love you forever.

~~~ Dr. Corey Cameron

Experiencing Jesus’ Joy, A Must Read For Every Christian

Experiencing Jesus' Joy
by Dr. James B. Joseph

Experiencing Jesus' Joy is a must read for every Christian, whether a new or mature follower of Christ. This book will provide those who read it a deeper understanding of God's Word, will, and direction for their lives. Through the reading of Experiencing Jesus' Joy, Dr. Joseph invites everyone to consider anew a close relationship with God in order that they may experience Jesus' joy on a daily basis as they help others know God more fully. By putting aside selfish desires and ambitions and being willing to give of themselves, Christ teaches His followers how to help others see the reality of God's love and enter into His eternal family. As individuals truly surrender their lives to the Father and His good purposes, they start realizing the same type of joy that Jesus did when He died a sinner's death on a cross making eternal life available for all who would start listening to God. Those who listen do so because they start realizing how much God really loves them and all others.

Brother James' main passion is to help as many as possible come to understand God's heart-felt desire for them to join Him and His eternal close-knit holy family for eternity. Through the reading of Experiencing Jesus' Joy, Dr. Joseph will show his readers that following Christ will open the door to a new life that allows God to developing His personal attributes of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control in them. The benefit of following Christ who also obediently follows His Heavenly Father starts immediately not waiting for some future time in Heaven, which will be great.

After over thirty years of ministry, Brother James has written this particular book to help as many as possible come to know their God-given purpose in life and experience more godly joy as they follow God's lead day-by-day. Dr. Joseph is well aware that one of the most common complaints among Christians today is that they lack the love and joy that they felt when they first submitted to Christ and became a Christian. Godly joy, inner peace, and excitement can be re-kindled in their life to burn brighter than ever before as individuals realize anew how worthy God is of their submission to His lead and start following Him as He saves as many as will listen from a life of eternal suffering and shame. Jesus wants us all to experience the joy that He experienced at the Cross and that He still is experiencing as He leads as many as will listen through His followers into the eternal presence of His Father and ours.

Dr. Joseph learned the ancient languages of the Bible so that he could understand in-depth God's message of love for all and then help others understand this great message more fully. He holds graduate degrees from Wake Forest University, Hood Theological Seminary, and Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He was licensed as a Gospel minister in 2000 and ordained as a pastor in 2007. He presently teaches the Bible in the seminary at Liberty University. His earlier book, Victory in Jesus: Being a Child of God (1997), brought great reviews from many Christian leaders of various denominations. It is clear from his writings, that Brother James wants those who will follow Jesus to work together as the Family of God and minister to a world that desperately needs God and His salvation.
