The Journey: The Dream of a 6th Grader
$4.99 – $20.99It’s often been said that every person has at least one book inside of them. The main purpose of this book is to express in written form my experiences I had throughout my journey to North America for my children and grandchildren.
But, if this book will have an impact on someone that is going through a similar experience or has been in my shoes and it will help them not to stop or give up, it will definitely accomplish its objective.
My motto for this book was to learn from the past, to live in the present, and focus on the future. My guide: Proverbs 3:5-6; Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all the ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Like a Tree Planted
$3.99 – $8.99Most Christians have had periods when they felt alienated from God. Circumstances and life situations propelled them into seeming darkness and despair. In such times Satan takes advantage of the Christian’s confusion and ignorance to launch a subtle attack. This book describes such a period in the author’s life, but focuses on God’s deliverance from the darkness via a powerful revelation – the revelation of the tree.
Jannah Mitchell was born in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Early education was in Indianapolis, Indiana. Jannah graduated with a B.A. in Journalism and Criminal Justice from Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago. She later completed her MEd at the University of Illinois at Chicago and an MPA at Roosevelt University in Chicago. Jannah reconnected with her childhood religious roots at Living Word Christian Center in Forest Park, Illinois in 2000. She graduated from the Living Word School of Ministry in June 2002. Jannah has served with missions’ teams in Bogata and Cali, Colombia, S.A.; Hyderabad, India; Panama; and Haiti. Jannah has a heart for new Christians and any Christian who is struggling. She hopes that her works will speak to the commonality of obstacles confronted when Christians are moving from darkness into the Kingdom of God. Hopefully this book and her other works will point the way to victory through spiritual development and renewal of the mind.

Have You Seen My Daddy?
$3.99 – $12.99Who is your daddy? If Pastor John R. Peyton was asked this question when he was a boy, he might be ashamed to admit who his daddy was, having grown up in an abusive household with an alcoholic, womanizing father.
However, now as a faithful servant of God and pastor of a loving church, he can now say his true daddy is that of his heavenly Father God.
His new book, Have You Seen My Daddy?, is Pastor John’s detailed life story, beginning with his birth and childhood in Virginia to a strong Christian mother and an abusive, lost father. As he grew up, he witnessed hypocrisy in his home church and racism from other churches, wondering if this Jesus that was spoken of was really someone to be praised and worshipped.
He was soon drafted into the army and traveled to Central America and, all while struggling with his hatred toward white people that intensified through his involvement with the Black Panther Party. It wasn’t until the most unlikely of people witnessed to him of God’s love and Jesus’s sacrifice that Pastor John’s life turned around and because of this he was sent to Vietnam.
As Pastor John moved forward with his life, becoming a husband and father to three daughters, he began to feel God leading him down certain paths where his testimony of God taking away the hate and bringing him peace was impacting people’s lives.
Pastor John, as an agent of reconciliation for God, has been the vessel to change the lives of many, from lost lives in prison ministry to the well-to-do and various races and statuses. The hope is that readers will understand through his life story the need for God in our lives and that change for the better can only happen through Jesus.
Have you seen your Daddy? Because He’s looking for you!

$3.99 – $22.99“Having been a close observer of the tumultuous events that have transpired and the change of course that has taken place during the past few years in the local churches under the leadership of Witness Lee, and having been myself an intimate co-worker of Witness Lee’s and an elder in the local churches for more than twenty-five years, I feel it is appropriate and indeed obligatory for me to relate an account of my own observations, inward exercises, and responses.

Struggling To Be Me: No Longer Silent & Invisible At The Table
$3.99 – $9.99As a black woman in the United States of America with a career in STEM and Ministry, my life began with two strikes from birth. People made choices for and about me based on how they saw me through their presupposition. No matter how much I changed my appearance, worked on my vernacular, educated myself and assimilated into a patriarchal world, it was still a struggle to be seen, heard, respected and trusted.
Today, women in leadership like myself continue to experience gender discrimination by men and women, especially as black, brown and indigenous women advance their careers in academia, institutions, politics and corporations. It’s the verbal and non-verbal communication that tells women this isn’t your place. -

To Then and Back Again: A Memoir Part One A Collection of Uh-Oh’s, No No’s and A Few OMG’S
$3.99 – $19.99To Then And Back Again is a memoir written in two parts. It’s a book for those who enjoy the trials and tribulations of real-life people and feel they can or would like to relate to those whom they are reading about. It’s a memoir about only those richest, most interesting details concerning my life…or so I would like to think. It was written to convey those sometimes simple, sometimes complex, but many times emotionally charged experiences I’ve had during my life. Whether these emotions were elicited by the harsh realities of adversity that I, like many, have faced and overcome, or by the personal triumphs achieved through perseverance, and at times, through sheer willpower alone is for the reader to decide. I will, however, try to express them in such a manner as to allow the readers the chance to decide for themselves. We will embark on a journey to then and back again; an odyssey that will encompass a multitude of adventures that are at times disturbing and chaotic, and at other times fascinating and humorous. These adventures will range from overcoming desperation and loneliness as a result of a hidden identity, to the anguish of a best friend and his suicide that served absolutely no purpose nor had any meaning; a suicide that gained nothing for anyone…especially himself. From an insidious monster’s theft of a child’s innocence to things that just happen; catching you unaware, then kicks you right square in your pearly whites. The journey will certainly run the gamut of human experiences and emotions, and I will share my life with the reader if they wish to take the ride. And of which I’m also certain, if I do it suitably, then they will vicariously become the reader’s adventures as well. The first part is about my life from the time I was about eight years old, when our family home was destroyed by fire to when I was just out of high school and first went out to live on my own. The second part will be about my life from when I was about twenty until I was thirty something. It will begin when my dad and I built my first home until I finally moved from my hometown to go off to medical school.

Havana 1995: English Version
$3.99 – $10.99“The work between a dream and reality, is a symbolic encounter of two individuals who represent one, the Cuban exiles, and the other the new cuban generation who developed in Castro’s Cuba. The story isa deep reflection on the future of Cuba, the fragmented identity of Cubans and their conflicts in the face of the possibility of what is becoming more and more inevitable: the freedom of Cuba.
The primary value of the book is that it will have meaning before and after the fall of the socialist’s regime. Ileana contrasts the generation of the Cubans in Cuba and those who live in exile. We must read these revealing pages, so literally beautiful and so shockingly Cuban. We all learn a lot from this magical form of this writer who now surprises us with this volume that cannot be ignored. She will prepare the mood and the attitude for the day.”
