Do You Believe In Miracles?
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99The main source of the stories in this book comes from the experiences relayed to me by our customers visiting the Catholic store which I and my co-partner opened the last years of our careers in teaching. (in preparation for a transition to retirement)
A majority of my shoppers were Catholic, but there were many of other faiths including Protestants, Buddhists, Jews, Muslim and those who described themselves as atheists or agnostics.
Readers of this book may be moved by the expressions of faith by residents of our community. Reared as a Catholic I have had questions of faith. However, I have been deeply moved by the religious fervor and faith of those who have related their experiences to me. It has truly made a difference in my life. My husband, also reared in a Catholic family, has been more skeptical of miracles of those about which we have written. We shared an encounter together in Eloy, Arizona with the “Lady in the Bell Tower” which has had a significant impact on his life, This miraculous event has been witnessed by several hundred people of different faiths and nationalities.
The narratives of miraculous encounters in this book may have an everlasting effect on those who read it and may serve as a segue of common values to a sometimes politically and religiously divided people.

God; U.F.O.; Antichrist
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99God; U.F.O.; Antichrist comes from me talking to God in private as if a young man now putting it into a book as an older man. To let those things God showed me be displayed. I wanted to write this in the year 2000. I had a publisher, but God said, “No, not yet ready are they.”
After Covid-19 started, He said, “Now is the time. They are ready now. The world is at its weakest point.”
I closed my eyes, began talking to God the Creator of life, and He poured into things He wanted humans to know like UFOs are not our God and things about heaven and what plan He has for us in the universe. I must be honest I never thought to live this long. My two friends, Kevin, Thomas and Derick Edwards, were ironically shot in the head. I, at fifteen, had my first gun pulled on me. The guy on top had a gun to my head on my temple. I scared him and yelled, “Get off or shoot me.” I should have died that day. Why am I still here? Maybe this book is the reason? Yes, let’s see.

Bread and Butter: Poems of the Spirit
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99From an early age, I wrote an occasional poem about many varied subjects. I love nature and animals, thus in my youth, I wrote about the world around me. As I got into high school and beyond, I began writing a little more regularly and began to narrow my themes to the religious. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the mainstay of my life, thus the majority of my poems are religious in nature. Jesus Christ is the Bread of life and this concept is reflected in my title, the butter in life, is everything else!

From Blunder to Blessing
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99Born at the edge of an open-pit copper mine in New Mexico, Jan Thomas comes from a background of working-class people, cultural Christians, but not committed believers. Growing up, he had influences and experiences causing doubts about himself and his ability to become more than his environment would have predicted. Influenced by teachers, Air Force buddies, and others, he began to trust God to do in him what he could not do for himself. As a youngster he thought he had no academic ability, but got BA and MDiv degrees. As a pastor he felt like a failure and began a career working in prisons. Struggling with life, he continued to try to serve. He married Fern, a widow with two children, and they had another child together. He became an administrator after only a few years; but his codependent nature, the desire to fit in, and to be liked at any cost nearly cost him his life. An old alcohol issue came back, at a time he was involved in two of the most amazing ministries of the twenty-first century, Celebrate Recovery and Kairos. Retiring in 1997, he began using CR in the prison he retired from. He was asked to help get the program into jails and prisons and became the first national director of Celebrate Recovery Inside. Celebrate Recovery Inside stretches across the United States and Canada as well as in many nations elsewhere. His own struggles have helped him become dedicated to the purpose God intended for him from the beginning. His ministry was not as a pastor but to those, like him, who struggled with life’s issues. When he stopped teaching and started the healing process for himself, God helped him to stop blundering and begin to see more of God’s blessing. He also used material from a course he taught at the New Mexico Corrections Academy to develop a curriculum for Christian communication to be used in the program called: How to Say What You Mean: Without Being Mean. His life has been one of service to people who struggle and find real help and meaning from a relationship with Jesus Christ. His autobiography is called: From Blunder to Blessing.

Have You Seen My Daddy?
Price range: $3.99 through $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!

¡EL CIELO!… ¿ABURRIDO?
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99La vida eterna: ¿es un sueño hecho realidad o una amenaza ominosa? Para aquellos que se preocupan de que flotar en las nubes y tocar arpas suene increíblemente aburrido, este libro ofrece una perspectiva única, atractiva y convincente sobre el cielo. ¡El Cielo! … ¿Aburrido? se aparta de las exploraciones típicas del cielo para examinar el concepto de la vida eterna desde nuevos puntos de vista. El autor Greg Thomas, MD, combina historia, biología, cosmología, filosofía y experiencia vital, junto con anécdotas caprichosas y relevantes, para estimular el intelecto mientras entretiene al mismo tiempo. Examina cómo la ciencia moderna arroja luz sobre la relación entre lo temporal y lo eterno, y cómo esto puede profundizar nuestra apreciación por la promesa bíblica de la vida eterna. Explora cómo nuestras experiencias sensoriales actuales tanto revelan como ocultan lo eterno. Lo más importante, Thomas ofrece reflexiones sobre cómo la promesa del evangelio de la vida eterna es, de hecho, una buena noticia. La promesa de la vida eterna no es una noción sentimental o un pensamiento ilusorio; es un asunto serio. Este libro es para todos aquellos que alguna vez se han preguntado: “¿Me aburriré en el cielo?”

THE DIGNITY OF PROFIT: Creating Community through Entrepreneurship

Unlike engineers, who will tell you how to make a watch when you ask them the time, consultants will take your watch and then tell you the time.

Bible Lessons for Broken People
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99This is a book to hand to a broken teenager captured by pills, pot, or meth. This is a book for a woman from an abusive background who feels unworthy of love. This is a book to hand to a recovering addict, desperately seeking Tough, forceful, and poignant. This is exactly the Bible-study book ministers and Christian counselors have been waiting for! So very many people in the modern world are deeply broken – some are so broken that they refuse to even enter a church. Whether victims of child abuse, neglect, addiction, or sexual exploitation, these broken people, young and old, are crying out for help even as their fierce pride forces them to refuse any help that is offered. When pride is all you have, pride is what you cling too. These broken individuals have lived in hell already, and that fierce, desperate pride kept them alive even as it now blocks their progress.
For those deeply broken people, this book is the answer. It speaks to the brokenness – directly to the heart of the darkness that many broken people feel with each breath, speaking with an authentic, direct message of Jesus’s love and compassion. The Roque Warriors document at the first of this book grabs the broken reader by the throat and lets those individuals know that many others have been in their situation before and have found help in these pages. The Bible lessons themselves tackle the harshest issues facing people today: fear, frustration, a complete, desperate sense of aloneness, homosexuality, child sex abuse, the problem of evil, contemplations of suicide, overwhelming guilt, dark rage, unforgiving hatred, and the deeply felt need to find peace amid the darkness of one’s lost soul. This book does not mince words, and the most challenging issues facing broken people today are presented and discussed herein using the Bible and, when possible, Jesus’s own words.
The minister or counselor should discuss each lesson with these broken ones, leading them through these pages as the broken grow stronger in their newly-found hope: their faith. Even when they read alone without a counselor, this book can reach broken people. It could be a gift for many. It will be a lifeline for some.
As Christians, we know that Jesus can and does change even the most broken lives. This book, presenting Jesus’s love and compassion, will help him do exactly that.
