Thoughts of Family
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99As a young kid, I think I was part of the last generation to experience a viewing for a family member in the person’s home.
Death of a loved one is painful enough, but when you see them in the environment which held memories of laughter and games and apple pie; The comprehension of those times are now tainted with sorrow that haunted the minds of young kids that were not mature enough to experience such a sad event.
The events depicted in this story are reminiscent of time more than 60 years ago when some young children were required to pay their last respects to departed family members and friends. The sadness, the fear, the lack of comprehension inundated the very soul of a child, yet it was believed the very spirit of the departed would not be at peace until all family members acknowledge there love.
This is a story of the weakness of one child in a very desperate and unrelenting situation.

An Angel is Born: A Family’s Story
Price range: $3.99 through $24.95It would be impossible to keep track of all the people that we encounter during the course of a lifetime; however, the few that affect and change us forever could be counted on the fingers of one hand. There are people such as those depicted within this book. There are a lot of people whose stories are told here: their lives, their times, and their fate, but there was one who changed everyone around her without ever trying. An Angel is born spans the course of nearly seven decades, and looks back at a time when things were simpler yet not always better.
If you are nostalgic you’ll reminisce, if you are a parent you will appreciate, if you are spiritual you will be sustained, and if you have a heart you will be forever moved. Their lives, their world, their future lay before them sweet and dying… Angel’s parents sat at her bedside holding her hand and whispering sacred words of encouragement with agonizing thoughts of farewell. Then a voice from the Holy Firmaments of heaven spoke to them saying, ”You are now separated…”
…a story about how generations shaped by the unique demands of Appalachia helped one kid to thrive against all odds.
An Angel Is Born is much more than a story about the life and death of an amazing girl with special needs. Nostalgic, honest, and moving, this is a contemplative history of how every life–and every death–adds its own thread to the tapestry of a family and community.

I believe everyone in life’s first love is God, everything else comes after. One should become successful at anything that holds their attention. One should become a successful husband or wife and a parent. The impact of my legacy should be one that shows a history of stability and achievements that were not supposed to happen to an individual such as myself. I would like people to speak of me as a devoted husband and father, a conscientious family member and a caring and loving friend. I must be remembered for being a hard worker, one who worked hard to achieve much. People will remember me for my self-worth, but above all, my greatest achievements in this life have been my marriage to my wife and the raising of my son. -

Your Mouth Confessing God’s Healing Promises Will Heal Your Disease: I Was Healed of Multiple Myeloma, an Incurable Blood Disease!
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, an incurable blood disease, in February 2019. I looked up God’s healing scriptures in the Bible and confessed them daily, and my disease began to disappear.
After a few months of speaking these healing promises out loud, the disease was no longer present in my blood.
The teaching in this book is God’s method of healing. It is not the only method, but the Christian’s reading this method, must develop faith in the healing scripture. When one speaks the healing scriptures out loud, a certain amount of faith comes to you.
Keep speaking out loud, faith keeps coming. Then you believe — healing is the result.
Thousands of Christians, believers, are going to be healed, if you can believe God’s Word.
So, then Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 10:17 NKJV)

The Perils of Beginnings: A Cavazos Historical Memoir
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99In 1967, the 18-year-old author hopped into her spicy Auntie Eloisa’s new GTO to embark on a road trip from San Antonio, Texas, to Tampico, Mexico. While searching for her baptismal certificate, Auntie shares the history of Narciso, a bold visionary who, in 1793, left an aristocratic life in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, to cultivate the 600,000 acres of land awarded to him by the King of Spain. As Narciso’s story unfolds, so do the secrets of the two women. Told with humor and warmth, I delighted in Bernadette’s tales of a cow greeting her while using an outdoor toilet, Auntie dropping her bloomers while dancing with abandon to the mariachis’ music, and a “gentle” horse baring her teeth at the author before riding her into the river. This book is a must-read for anyone who enjoys history, romance, and colorful characters.
Bernadette Inclan does an outstanding job weaving two periods of history to tell the story of her life and ancestor, José Narciso Cavazos, one of the early Texas settlers.
