You’ll read of the years of continued drug and alcohol abuse, the self defeating sabotaging of good things in my life, even when I was not aware of how I was destroying any hope of recovery. To be perfectly honest; I did not know if I wanted recovery. All I could feel was guilt and shame.
Then it happened; a supernatural experience with the Lord of all the earth. at night I received my salvation. Now I had hope! My life has not been the same since that night. Yes, there was still ups and downs and four more years of hospitalization, but this time it was different; I had a whole new outlook.
Today I am a totally free man and it is all because of Jesus.
If you decide to read this book I hope you will not be disappointed.

The Care and Feeding of Harry
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99It seems Harry Flapper leads a charmed life.
But then again, maybe charmed isn’t quite the right word. Because when Harry is around—and even when he isn’t—very strange things seem to happen. Like a moose goring a dune buggy to death. And the fixation of the local police with the mysterious Flapper Gang. And who could forget Victoria, Harry’s winsome mother who daily faces the many challenges of keeping her husband Bull alive and in one piece and her family one step removed from another calamity. Add a full cast of grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and several other hapless and sometimes flirtatious creatures, and you have a recipe for mishaps and hilarity.
And then there’s Harry himself: only son, besotted with his ever-expanding bug and coin collections, naïve to the wiles of certain young ladies of his acquaintance and never far from his own misadventures. The Care and Feeding of Harry is a fun-filled tale of Forrest Gumpian proportions. Prepare to enter Harry’s world, where nothing is sacred and each story is full of wit and irreverence. And find out why he detests chocolate.

TRACKS
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99America – land of opportunity – nation of immigrants.
There is a special magic to America. It comes from the diversity of its people.
Like the characters in Tracks they come from all over – places like Guadalajara, Chapala, Chihuahua and Zacatecas, Mexico, Kirkaldy, Scotland, Barnmeen, Ireland, Copenhagen, Denmark, disputed territory in the shadow of Mt. Ararat in the Caucasus Mountain Range, Bremerhaven, Germany, and Padua, Italy.
In 1919, when young Pedro Figueroa and Antonio Flores were refused seats to a travelling Shakespearian and Broadway show on a Saturday night in a saloon in Socorro, New Mexico, the lead actor stopped the show and took them aside. He offered these words of encouragement:
“You boys got to do the same things my folks did. Work hard. Raise a family. Make sure your kids get to school. Your day will come. This is a great country. Look, we got rid of slavery. Things get better all the time. Lives are lived in stages. Look at the caterpillar, crawling about, making little tracks
on the ground, and then it’s into a cocoon, and before long, it’s flying about, a butterfly.”
Tracks is a testament to the spirit of immigrants who come to America and make it a better place.

Divided We Fall
Price range: $3.99 through $18.99What will the American people do when tyranny and political correctness become the law of the land? Where are the George Washingtons and Benjamin Franklins that we need today? Liberal leftist educators deliberately ignore the tyranny of the increasingly socialist movement of government under the guise of political correctness. What freedoms are we willing to surrender? Who of our youth are willing to serve in the armed forces?
Politicians continue to consolidate political power in their hands under the banner of political correctness and socialism, of spreading the wealth for everyone. The tyranny of socialism is being whitewashed by liberal educators who ignore the loss of freedoms it requires. The armed forces are controlled by the politicians which can become tools of repression. Will individual patriots rise to protect the Constitution as written by the Founding Fathers? Where are the George Washingtons and Benjamin Franklins of today?
As the tyranny of political correctness grows to become the law of the land at the expense of individual thought, liberty, and justice, who will abide by it? Who will resist it? As politicians concentrate political power in their own hands, disarming the American people to deny them the means of physical resistance, where will the armed forces, allegedly under civilian control and commanded by the President, stand? What price are we, as individuals, willing to pay for our God-given freedoms?

Act of God
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99So often we ask, “Where is God?”
In tragedies like cancer, life long disabilities, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, wild fires, famines, earthquakes, and pandemics of late – it is so painfully human to cry out from the darkness with a desperate, yearning soul for an answer to this dire question. In our suffering, it is easy to forget just where He was over 2,000 years ago, and that is on a bludgeoned and bloodied cross where He absolved the sins of the world in His own flesh, mind, and spirit. You see, of all religions, Christianity is unique. We do not presume that we go to Heaven because we have been good. As any faithful student of proper doctrine knows, we go to Heaven – because Christ has been good. And that is the most significant and paramount act of God that can sustain us in the bleakest, most overwhelming times. So the real question should be…will we let it?
In this collection, you will be taken into the depths of human suffering through autobiographical short stories and poetic verses. But from that suffering, you will see the glorious ascension into victory that can only be afforded through this: The unyielding truth, yet amazing grace, of Jesus Christ.

In my quest to gain an understanding of the mysteries Paul spoke of, I examined the Pauline epistles. I found a treasure of revelation as I was led through the labyrinth by E.W. Kenyon and later Derek Prince. They had years before delved into the secrets revealed by Paul’s writings.
One thing about God’s Word – it never dries up. Its revelations are never depleted or exhausted. As long as one studies and longs for revelation and understanding, one’s desires will be rewarded. God’s Word is an endless fountain of thirst-quenching water for the soul.
What did I find? I found GRACE, — which is the reality of redemption. There is a lot of talk about grace these days. But what is grace really? This book explores the many facets of God’s gift of grace, freeing the Christian reader to live in a space free of guilt, shame, and sin-consciousness. The finished work of Jesus Christ created that space for every born-again Christian. Walk into that place of liberty and power. God’s GRACE awaits your recognition.

The Dragon Commons
Price range: $3.99 through $19.99The year is 2048. In lands beyond a wall-enclosed city known as the Tiered Nations, a war is waging between dragons and Wyrms. Ardyce, a Tree Crown Drake and leader of her people, ventures out to investigate a gaping hole in the land. She is joined by her kin and friend, Sasithorn, who soon must fight for their lives when a Wyrm suddenly attacks. Within the Tiered Nations, a mantra exists: “Live beyond satiation,” and consumerism is the only religion. Hadryn and his best friend Thaddius are soldiers, investigating an unusual death at the city’s morgue: a limb-hewn corpse, which appears to have been mauled when animals are no longer of this world. Meat products, as well as all foods, are grown in laboratories and manufactured as “cubed food.” Before Hadryn and Thaddius can further their examination of the body, two letters arrive for Hadryn. One is from a woman, Oshin Rysing, who is Hadryn’s long-time epistolary paramour, living outside the Tiered Nations in a rebel colony which resists the gluttonous ways of the city. The second letter is from his father to notify Hadryn that he will be wedded to an unknown man, as is customary for young women of marital age. Hadryn attends his engagement banquet with the intention of confronting his father, but strange occurrences of people, who seem to be infected with a terrible disease leading to self-cannibalism arise, and a creature out of nightmares emerges

The Saga of a Bent Nail
Retired missionary, Bob Leland, recounts adventures from his more than thirty years in the mission field in Indonesia (1971-2002). Both he and his wife answered God’s call to missions when they were just children (6 and 8 years old).
Their first posting was to Senggo (church-planting) followed by several changes of duties including house parenting, field administration, Bible College teaching, training missionary appointees, and translating the Greek Lexicon from English into Indonesian.
Bob’s book opens with a moment of deep crisis in the early days of the Senggo mission, is enhanced with Bible verses, black-and-white photos, frank admissions of shortcomings, and a lively sense of humor. The intriguing narrative shows how the couple survived sickness, accidents and unexpected challenges in their ministry. In spite of language and cultural differences, they were encouraged with how the Citak people and their students responded to the Word of God.
Bob and Amber remain active in church work in the U.S. and helpfully offers this memoir as guidance for all Christians, but especially for those contemplating the mission path.
