Parables for Purposeful Walk
Price range: $3.99 through $21.99Parables For The Purposeful Walk follows in the tradition of Jack Worril’s first two books, “Parables for Plain People” and “More Parables for Plain People,” offering brief devotional messages for daily encouragement and inspiration. It was in the metropolitan Atlanta area that he made his living, raised his own family, carried out his various ministries, and witnessed the events and news items that have served as the basis for his writings. Since 2012, Jack’s ministry opportunities have expanded to include medical and evangelistic missions to Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Myanmar and Brazil, as well as several local Mission projects. Each of these personal experiences has added new perspective to the concept of walking the Purposeful Walk, and contributed to the enrichment of Jack’s observations of the working of God in the everyday lives of those with whom he has come in contact. The result is a collection of articles composed with the objective of focusing the readers’ attention on the Presence of God in each day’s events, whether personal, local, or worldwide. Jack’s desire is that these Parables will serve to give encouragement, guidance and inspiration to each one who engages in the purposeful walk through life.

We’ve Done Them Wrong: A History of The Native American Indians and How The United States Treated Them
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99“From the mountains, to the prairies
To the oceans white with foam,
Every Native American
Must leave his home.” I.
Imagine that someone comes to your home and forces you at gunpoint to leave. Your response might be termed “savage”
“Savage” was how the New World invaders described American Indians. Settlers chased them across the continent, as the government signed treaties that they later broke. They also subjected the native inhabitants to horrible atrocities.
Author George E. Saurman, a World War II veteran and proud American, explores what really happened to Native American Indians, examining
- Native American Indian tribes and their customs;
- the actions of early settlers, including William Penn and his holy experiment;
- contributions of the Native American Indians; and
- conditions on reservations today.
Saurman also considers how the Bureau of Indian Affairs handled relations between natives and settlers, as well as what Native American Indians from the past and today have had to say about events.
Even today, broken promises obscure what’s really going on in Native American Indian Communities, It’s time that a serious effort be made to rectify the situation, and it starts by realizing that We’ve Done Them Wrong.

The Spanish Teacher
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99Winner of the Gival Press Novel Award
“…De la Cuesta’s novel maintains an accumulating power which holds onto a reader’s attention not only through the forceful figure of Ordóñez, but by demonstrating acutely how ordinary lives are impacted by the underlying social and political landscape. Compelling reading.”
-Tom Tolnay, publisher,
Birch Brook Press and author of Selling America and This Is the Forest Primeval
“Barbara de la Cuesta’s The Spanish Teacher has everything to thrill you-pace, a great balance of description, gesture and action, charmed, perfectly-tuned dialogue, and most notably, a character we follow as closely and sympathetically as if we were living right there inside the story with him… So many books show us a character who seems to capably hang and move like marionettes from the strings of a fairly competent puppeteer, but rarely do we see a full drama like this, where every bit of the writing extends from, grows out of, is part and parcel with the author’s complete realization of and connection to her character…”

Much can be learned from them.
The Men of Genesis was written for young readers to get acquainted with God’s handiwork in the first six days of earth’s creation.

As the reader turns the pages, he or she will be reminded of God’s immense love for His people-His desire to have a relationship with those who truly seek Him, yesterday and today.

The Impact of Organizational Capital Investment on Employee Innovation in the Manufacturing Industry
Price range: $3.99 through $8.95This study involved an exploration of the impact of organizational capital investment on employee innovation in the manufacturing industry. The
overarching question was: Does organizational capital investment impact employee innovation in the manufacturing industry? Organizations tend to
place much emphasis on how skill drives innovation, but not on how capital investment impact employee innovation. The research was guided using a
qualitative phenomenological case study design to probe the impact of capital investment on employee innovation. Participants were selected through a convenience and purposive sampling method using the researcher’s personal professional network as well as the snowball method to seek participants from individuals’ referrals. Data collection involved personal interviews, audio recording, and note taking. The assumption was that employee innovation is not an option but a necessity, because organizations compete on global fronts for resources and market share. Consequently, capital investment in machinery and employee innovation becomes symbiotic in nature, not mutually exclusive. Results showed employee innovation can be impacted and enhanced through the acquisition and application of appropriate technological capital investment. The researcher recommends further research to ascertain whether the amount of organizational capital investment is proportional to the development of employee innovativeness.

With the pandemic as standpoint, here is a look-back at the itsy-bitsy events that form the collective tale of my family and me – and my pursuit of the American Dream.
