The Open Road: An African Walking
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99The Open Road is a sojourner’s tale. Each day, an immigrant lands on America’s shores in search of opportunity. For Africans, coming to America has largely in the past been in search of education followed by a return to the homeland. While on the surface, The Open Road is the author’s experience and firsthand observations, it unfolds complex relationships that face immigrants of African origin as they struggle to get a slice of the American dream. It presents a close look at race, apathy and indifference toward an African immigrant, whose adjustment sometimes-alien environment is determined by the effects of the colonial culture. To cope, the author develops the ability to glide like a swan between white and black races without being a victim or captive of race. It is a quest that all might not achieve; but one that, despite all the bruises, is worth fighting for.

Courage and Devotion
Price range: $3.99 through $23.99This battle flag was given to the battery just before the Battle of Shiloh. I wrote this book with the purpose of having the historical narrative separate from stories of the men. If the reader wants to know about an individual, there are sections within the chapters about the officers and enlisted men. It is the intention of this book to describe the battery’s place in the large scheme of things. On the maps in this book are marks that show the location of the battery at each battle. In each chapter, after the narrative, there are descriptions of the officers and what they were doing, followed by information about the enlisted men. At the end of the book, there are several appendices that present lists of men for various times. The names are listed chronologically first and then alphabetically.

Suspicion
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99When Ivan’s Jewish parents smuggle him out of Germany during World War II, they leave him a letter with two pieces of advice: work hard, and be wary of those offering help.

When the US government offers him a top-secret assignment working with German and Russian scientists in Iran to develop a new weaponized drug—along with a significant pay raise—Ivan jumps at the opportunity. Soon, however, his suspicious nature forces him to question the work’s real purpose. He discovers the German-Russian team are creating a weapon of mass destruction, and his suspicions are confirmed: the CIA didn’t plant him as a scientist but as a spy.
Meanwhile, Ivan’s son, Michael, has become a member of a US Special Operations team. Michael hasn’t spoken to his estranged father in years, and he never expects them to meet again. When they do, the circumstances will demand that they rediscover their ability to trust in each other. Their lives may depend on it.

Children Do Come With A Manual
Price range: $3.99 through $7.99We wrote this book as a companion to our book on parenting to; encourage parents and potential parents to daily use the Bible as a manual for the guidance and wisdom required in raising a child into a follower of Christ Jesus and a productive successful adult, as well as our manual for living a full, joyful and productive life while here on this earth in preparation for an eternal life with Him after his return.
A friend of mine told me that in his opinion the Bible is; Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth, that has stuck in my mind, and I like that prospective even more as I unpack all of the information the scriptures reveal to me.
Unlike most manuals this one tells us how it all started, what the intent was, what happened to change things from the initial intent, our history of rebellion, and what will have to be done to restore both us and this earth to its intended state and purpose.
Like most manuals it is seldom opened until a problem arises and malfunctions occur. Th is manual is most useful when read on a daily basis and in preparation for all we plan to do instead of after we have done it. As a manual – the Bible is filled with promises from our Creator, guidelines, warnings, and examples to help us become the people we were created to be, it overflows with a historical review of His love, goodness, mercy, sacrifices and forgiveness as well as proofs of his desire to enjoy life long fellowship with us.
This manual is very comprehensive as it covers everything from what to eat to maximize our earthly body function, the importance of both work and rest, the value of a godly woman and the expected behavior of a godly man, what to look for in a mate and what to avoid, who to trust and how to know if you are being deceived. This manual tells us what is expected of us and what we can expect from our creator. I would encourage and challenge everyone to exhaustively explore all that the Bible has to offer.

The Helpmate
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99This is a well-orchestrated prose-work, fiction. Although events in the narratives are mirrored to reflect real life occurrences. It is a tragic story. A tale of struggles, hardship, fortune, survival and death. The Book has fifteen chapters in total running into 108 pages with intriguing starting ending narratives which qualifies the story as comical tragedy.
It touches on some cultural demeanors of people from certain tribes in Africa (Nigeria as a focus) where extra-marital affair is silently prevalent despite legality to engage in polygamy. The book: Helpmate muckrakes the evil of broken-homes and parental negligence on young adults. The strenuous roles of fending for self as a child and taking up the responsibility of an adult in the process of survival is pivotal incident within the pages.
Man’s love for beast is not always without the influence of what they could produce. This statement is justified by the roles the Dog: ‘Riro’ plays on Dara’s path to fulfillment. These unique roles have usually been sanctioned to be the reason why many pet-owners (especially in Africa) own their Dogs and cater for them and not really because of unaligning love for these animals. The story justifies this more with the dramatic risk of life efforts ‘Riro’ (the Dog) had to make to preserve Dara’s life whle the Dog owner-Dara could not be said to attempt similar efforts to the turn of substituting his own life to rescue the Dog when her own (the Dog’s) critical situation beckoned.
We dream, we hope, we expect with longings in life, but we do not know what tomorrow holds. This is explained by the unexpected and sudden end of Riro. For this sudden and unexpected end of Dara’s lover bring him back to a zero level of fulfillment, bruising his desires like the impact of the sun upon a fallen leave…

In Christendom, the air [the Word] of our intake is more valuable than can be fully expressed, for its importance drives both our physical and spiritual existence. The intake of God’s Word is the breath of spiritual life that fuels our living. By it, we take in Jesus.
The INHALE compilations are designed and given by God to reflect the many facets of that inhale—what we take in, what it is designed to accomplish and to fortify in us, and what should come out of us as a result of its life-sustaining provision. May you soak up Jesus with every page. My prayerful desire is to inspire, edify, and encourage. Above all, I desire to drive you, to pull you into a greater depth of desire for my Jesus that you inhale deeply and in all that you get, get God.
