Biblical and Non-Biblical Evidences For The Book of Mormon: That Show Its Validity As Scripture: A Layman’s Thesis
Price range: $3.99 through $24.99What about the Book of Mormon? That it is a controversial book cannot be denied. Many do not accept it as scripture. They believe that Joseph Smith, Jr., “wrote” it. They also believe that the Bible is the only scripture ever written, but nowhere does the Bible make that claim. This belief is not biblical. In fact, just the opposite is true. The Bible testifies to the existence of other written scriptures and specifically a second scripture written about the tribe of Joseph (Ezekiel 37:19). This Joseph is the same Joseph of the coat of many colors, the same Joseph sold into slavery in Egypt and the Same Joseph that saved Egypt and all of the tribes of Israel from the seven-year that occurred.
Due to his lack of knowledge and education, if Joseph Smith, Jr., has written The Book of Mormon, it would have been disproven years ago. Instead, as time passes, more and more of it is proven to be correct. Joseph Smith could not have written it for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that he was a barely literate man. He knew very little of the scriptures and no Hebrew at all. Yet The Book of Mormon is clearly written by highly educated men with a strong background in Hebrew customs and writing techniques, none of which were known by any American in the 1800s. More information on this subject will be explored within this book.
This book was begun by the direction of the Holy Spirit and written to the entire body of Christ. Some might ask why they should read it. Some will read it to try to refute it; others will read it to learn and still, others will use it to further their own agendas. However, you should read it and pray over it, asking God through His Holy Spirit to give you a witness as to its validity
We need direction from the Holy Spirit because we are always vulnerable to error. Even prophets can be deceived (2 Chronicles, Chapter 18). Satan will do anything he can to prevent us from gaining unity in our fight against him. For years he has used the “divide and conquer” plan, and we have fallen prey to it. It is time we stop fighting over our petty differences and start working together for the salvation of all mankind. The harvest is plentiful; it is time to bring it in, and we can do it! With the help of God through His Son Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit, we can accomplish what would otherwise be impossible on our own.

The Revelation of a Mystery: God’s Remedy for Sinful Nature of Humanity
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99The Revelation of a Mystery is a text and workbook that teaches the relevance of the book of Romans to life today. The epistle of Romans is the most comprehensive teaching of Christian doctrine. To everyone who thinks the Bible is outdated, the Holy Scriptures are just as relevant today as they were when God first gave them to mankind. While our means of travel, way of living, and technology changes, human nature does not change. Murder is still murder, stealing is still stealing, lying is still lying, and sexual immorality is still sexual immorality. Our society has disregarded this fact; therefore, it has been plagued by social ills that have been leading us down destructive paths and bringing us sexually transmitted diseases, HIV and AIDS, abortion, greed, hatred, and violence. The only way to overcome these social ills and live a life of victory is through the Lord Jesus Christ and His teaching.
The Apostle Paul was God’s chosen vessel to bring to the world a written record of His plan of salvation for the world. When the Apostle finished this epistle, he ended it with this verse: “Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began . . . ” (Romans 16:25 KJV). God’s plan of salvation for the world is fully revealed. The Old Testament prophets taught it, the Lord Jesus Christ brought it, and the Holy Spirit is sent to complete it.
• Justification by faith in the Messiah
• Salvation and its benefits
• The outpouring of the Holy Spirit
• Empowered to walk in the Spirit
• Victory over sinful flesh and death.

Price range: $3.99 through $9.99The Mark of Cain is the true story of Isaiah Baity, Jr., a young black man growing up in the South. After hearing a Klansman speak to an enthusiastic audience on a talk show, Isaiah is left pondering the implications of the Mark of Cain.
In his struggle to come to terms with racial prejudice with biblical “sources,” he investigates the view that the Mark of Cain is a curse inherited by the blacks, branding them as outcasts who must pay for Cain’s sin. This has a great impact on Isaiah and his family as he grows up in the South, a victim of racism and hatred. For years he believes that they suffer because they are cursed, but then as he matures, a caring friend helps him to realize that there is no curse. . . only senseless prejudice. After this spiritual awakening, Isaiah devotes his life to helping those less fortunate and to bringing people together.
Isaiah learns that though he has gone through many hard years, it is serving God that counts in the end, and that there is nothing like sitting at God’s feet. The Mark of Cain tells a story that is a testament to the power of God’s love to sustain us despite man’s mistaken hatred and fear.

Incarnation of Divine Consciousness: The Holy Trinity Beyond Conventional Christianity
Price range: $3.99 through $18.99The main focus of the Incarnation of Divine Consciousness: The Holy Trinity Beyond Conventional Christianity is to showcase the presence of the Holy Trinity construct, along with demonstrating its vitality and to present it as being the pivotal seed of Christianity. The book delves into just how the relatively un-historical storyline of the New Testament could be taken for a drama script, a spiritual excerpt, or at the very most an allegory for a metaphoric Christ. Any historicity around the Christ figure and the apostles in this work is secondary to the concept of the relationship between the Holy Spirit and the human soul. The text insists that more than at any other time a strong mystical stance to Christian practice is needed, and one based on the gift of prophecy and wisdom. Though largely ignored for almost twenty centuries, contemplative and intuitive mystical Christianity is essential and of paramount value to the serious and practical side of the Christian faith. The Author expresses that he supports Christian values but questions the dogma of Christianity.

Victims of Ineptitude: An Insider’s Account of Injustice within the World Health Organization
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99For years, critics have demanded reform of the World Health Organization. Its management structure in particular is said to be archaic, its staff deeply demoralised. But, since WHO like other UN bodies, is accountable to no-one but itself, it dodders along unchanged. It is left to the ground staff of International Civil Servants to grapple with the real difficulties the ivory-tower academics pinpoint in long winded reports. The work of these International Civil Servants in distant lands among foreign cultures is often hazardous and lonely, and requires good management by those at the centre if it is to succeed. Instead, as this story shows, there is often lack of support and callous disregard which matters deeply because, if staff are as a result, unable to meet the extremely difficult challenges they face, no blast of grand talk at a conference, no high flying plan on plush paper, will save millions of dollars donated by the developed world from sinking like water into the sand. The individual human story related here reveals weaknesses in this great Organization which, multiplied over the region, help to explain why Africa remains the most disease-ridden continent on earth.

From Dean’s List to Dumpsters: Why I Left Harvard to Join a Cult
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99Jim Guerra was recruited during his sophomore year at Harvard College into the religious cult known as “Th e Brethren” or “Th e Garbage Eaters”. For the next decade, Jim was transformed from a happy, self-confident Christian college student to a highly controlled devout follower of Jim Roberts, a charismatic leader of a nomadic Bible-based ministry. Forsaking Harvard, family, career aspirations and all his possessions, he departed Harvard to join with a vagabond ministry that subsisted on food from supermarket dumpsters and fast-food restaurants.
This book captures the mind control processes that prolonged his departure from society, alienation from his family, his forced celibacy, and the rejection of all Christian churches outside this small ministry. Jim is careful to chronicle both the growth and the metamorphosis of his mindset as he isolates himself from society for ten-and-a-half years in order to be saved with a small remnant of end-time believers. Follow him from Harvard to the woods and finally back to his family, and experience it through his 20/400 vision. You will see why bright young people are sucked into cults, and how he eventually escaped. -
Songs for the Last Sunrise: Poems and prayers from the edge of eternity
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99Poetic Prayers for the End of Night and the Coming of Light
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a journey through darkness toward the first glimmer of forever. These poems and prayers rise from the edge of exhaustion and the brink of hope, written by a man who has stood in the fire, walked through ash, and learned to listen for God in the quiet before the dawn.
In these pages, faith flickers and flares. Shadows speak. Lamps burn low but never go out. From the long night of suffering to the holy expectancy of Christ’s return, each piece leans toward the horizon-toward the moment when the sky splits, the trumpet sounds, and every weary watcher is finally met with light.
This is a book for those who have waited through the ache…
for the ones who still believe He’s coming…
for souls who refuse to close their eyes, even when the night feels endless.
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a companion for the midnight hour and an anthem for the morning that’s almost here. Continuing the journey begun in Tod Truettner’s first book, Creation to Christ, this work follows the soul from the edge of surrender to the threshold of glory. Tod writes with the grit of a builder and the heart of a watchman, reminding us that hope has a pulse even in the dark-and that heaven is closer than we think. -

Price range: $3.99 through $11.99In every life there are those milestones that are transformative for our souls such as baptism, receiving saving ordinances and marriage in one of God’s temples, and certainly the birth of children.

These are less visible experiences, but I see in them the Hand of the Lord providing education and blessings that may be unique in their impact on me, as they would be for each person. However, they are vital to our spiritual wellbeing and progress in mortality.
God does not perform inconsequential works. I have come to know them as ENNOBLING. -

The increasing amount of data raises both the opportunities and the challenges of managing it. Today’s organizations depend on data and insights to make most of their decisions. This huge trove of data is now presented under the umbrella term “big data.”
Big data refers to extremely large and complex datasets that exceed the processing capacity of traditional data management systems. It is a combination of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data that organizations collect, analyze, and mine for information and insights. Big data comes from many sources, including transaction processing systems, customer databases, documents, emails, medical records, Internet clickstream logs, mobile apps, and social networks. It has gained significant popularity and application in various industries, including finance, architecture, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, transportation, supply chain, media and entertainment, oil and gas, space exploration, maritime industry, and the military.
This book is an extension or supplement to a former book, where 16 applications of big data are covered. In this book, we cover additional 11 big data applications. This is a must-read book for anyone who wants to learn about the various applications of big data, which has become vital in many areas of life. -

Turtletoes: Following the Steps of An Angel
Price range: $3.99 through $25.99Life seems to always provide the experiences and people we each need for our development and maturity, even happiness. Turtletoes is about one of those people, a daughter born with birth defects, whose influence helped raise the author, her father, to become a better man than he could have on his own.
The book is about Tracy Purles, who was born with congenital heart disease and intellectual disability. Tracy endured being different. Physical, and mental challenges became a life-light for her family and friends. Her faith in God, determination to “be like everyone else,” resilience, and enjoyment of life’s little pleasures blessed the lives of her family and many others throughout her 20 years of life.
This is not a book about tragedy, but about the value and beauty of life, no matter at what level it must be lived. It is a story about how one little girl meets the challenge of staying alive with such faith, hope, and grace that her influence invites Heaven’s blessings for all. Her father writes that her passing from this life and going “Home” was one of the most spiritual experiences of his life. If you want an uplifting, “real world” experience that will touch your soul and invite you to thank God for your own life, read Turtletoes, Following the Steps of An Angel. -
Beyond Mind: The Adventures of a Soul in the Midst of a Spiritual Awakening
Price range: $3.99 through $18.99This is the earliest Beyond Imagination expression captured starting in March 1993. I was indeed going Beyond Mind, experiencing something that no metaphysical training had come close to preparing me for. My mind literally went beyond itself and became something far more … never to return to its former limits. The extensive comments from recursions 12 and 22 years later illustrated this was an evolving process, providing wonderful additional insights from fresh perspectives that enriched and deepened the original book. ENJOY!

The Search for Center
Price range: $3.99 through $20.99The Search for Center documents a search engaged at many levels of being concurrently. It started as a modest newsletter, growing month by month into a formidable production, primarily showcasing the work of one consciousness in all its frailty and all its glory, as it encountered and unveiled the unknown step by step following a process that spirit herself directed and orchestrated. In all, 9 newsletters were created, the 8th of which exceeded 75 pages. Never were more than a few dozen people engaged, and these fairly loosely with the exception of Dawn Kalin, whom Wayne actually met in person once in Redondo Beach. The newsletter explored a variety of metaphysical topics in sections that evolved from month to month. The project for finding a center concluded in July of 1996 … at the time believed to be a failure in Wayne’s experience but clearly not for spirit. This was a prototype of what could be done using the latest technical capabilities to enhance spiritual expression.
