The New Tower of Babel
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99Do we really believe in God? What difference does it make if God exists or does not exist? Are we better off with God or without God? Are we made in God’s image or is it God who is made in our image? Is God our creator or are we the creators of God the way we create other gods? Does God tell us from on high what to do or do we go on building higher and higher towers and defy the God of heavens? Does God have rights? Do we have rights? Are these and those rights the same, different, or incompatible?
Obviously, it is not easy to fi nd adequate answers to such fundamental and life or death questions. In this book, philosopher Jean Maalouf helps us to find our way around. With “[his] gift for writing about the most sublime truths in the most simple language,” as his style was once described, he masterly walks us through the eras of Enlightenment, modernism, post-modernism, existentialism, and the deconstruction and cancel culture projections. With clarity, lucidity, and boldness, he explains how we are building the new tower of Babel, what the meaning of it is, and what the next step in our human journey could be.

Heart Journey

Throughout a troubled childhood and into abandoned years as a teenager, he struggled to maintain a belief in a caring power greater than himself. But by the time he reached adulthood, circumstances had merely strengthened his doubts in a loving God, until a woman of faith and conviction transformed his misgivings into a love and assurance he never dreamed existed. However, the young doctor is severely tested through a tragic succession of personal losses. His newfound faith is destroyed, his confidence replaced with a dark sense of foreboding, and his compassion and optimism exchanged for angry indifference and doubt. Yet through all of his trials stands Callie Jordan, whose unconditional and undisclosed love for Joe knows no boundaries. While she struggles to restore his angry and disillusioned spirit, she also touches his heart until an ironic twist of fate threatens to shatter their promising future. Will Callie have enough courage to hold on until Joe reaches the end of his heart’s journey?

The Alzheimer’s Guidebook
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99Alzheimer’s/Dementia is out there in our world and creating distress and sadness in the lives of millions of people every day, and more in years to come. The number of people with this disease is staggering-MILLIONS! Who is going to be taking care of these people? If it’s not the family, it will be hired caregivers at home or staff in facilities. The concern is, will they be prepared!
Does someone you know–a loved one perhaps, have Alzheimer’s?
Are you concerned for a loved one that has increased forgetfulness, behavior changes and/or has wandered off and forgotten where they were or how to get home?
Do you work with Alzheimer’s patients and feel you would like to have a better understanding of this disease?
Are you having a difficult time coping with someone with this disease and you just don’t know how to handle things or even how the disease will progress?
IF YOU ANSWERED “YES” TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU.
This is a simple, easy-to-read, guidebook. It is designed to help you care for and better understand a person with Alzheimer’s. Many people have not been educated on what to expect or how to properly care for someone with this disease.
As a Registered Nurse, working for hospice, I had the opportunity of managing the care of Alzheimer’s/Dementia patients for over nine years, on a daily basis, in many aspects of their disease process. I shared in the lives of their families as I listened, watched, learned and took notes. From those notes, I comprised this guidebook. It includes actual stories told from the families who have dealt with this disease, personal experiences, factual information, and is put together with tips and scenarios.
MY HOPE, AS THE WRITER OF THIS BOOK, IS THAT BY SHARING THIS INFORMATION, PEOPLE WILL HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THIS DISEASE, AND THEY WILL RESPOND TO SITUATIONS WITH COMPASSION, SO THAT THE DIGNITY OF THE PATIENT IS MAINTAINED AND BETTER CARE IS PROVIDED. AT THE SAME TIME, BY HAVING THIS INFORMATION, THEY WILL BE FILLED WITH MORE ENJOYABLE, EASIER DAYS AS SITUATIONS ARISE, VERSUS DAYS WITH TROUBLES, STRESS, SADNESS AND THE LACK OF ADEQUATE CARE.

To Then and Back Again: A Memoir Part One A Collection of Uh-Oh’s, No No’s and A Few OMG’S
Price range: $3.99 through $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.

Heaven!… Boring?
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99Eternal life-is it a dream come true or an ominous threat? For those who worry that floating on clouds and playing harps sounds incredibly dull, this book offers a unique, engaging, and compelling perspective on heaven. Heaven! Boring? departs from typical explorations of Heaven to inspect the concept of life-ever-after from fresh vantage points. Author Greg Thomas, MD brings history, biology, cosmology, philosophy, and life experience, together with whimsical and relevant anecdotes to stimulate the intellect while simultaneously entertaining. Examine how modern science sheds light on the relationship between the temporal and the eternal, and how this can actually deepen our appreciation for the biblical promise of eternal life. Explore how our present sensory experiences both reveal and conceal the eternal. Most importantly, Thomas offers reflections on how the gospel promise of eternal life is indeed good news! The promise of eternal life is not a sentimental notion or wishful thinking; it is serious business. This book is for everyone who has ever asked, Will I get bored in Heaven?

Reflections of Humanity: A Tapestry of Perceptions
Price range: $3.99 through $8.99This collection will take on different meanings at different points in time. Many of the key themes have multiple messages. This is also the case in many interpretations of the vocabulary. Everyone has an individual perception of what truth is. These works are representative of this writer’s understanding of that entity.
It is my hope that this collection will inspire the realization within each reader that the true wisdom in life is one’s ability to believe in oneself. Thus, will it become possible to accept responsibility for our own actions? Once this end is accomplished, we can, each in his own right, make beneficial changes. Many have had this same dream since the dawn of time. It is this writer’s most ardent hope that this work will find acceptance within the heart of each reader. A further hope is that these perceptions will serve as an inspiration to each to establish a positive sense of self and a more cohesive view of the people around you.
Try to set gender aside in these works. Wherever possible, substitute people and situations within your own life and the lives of the loved ones around you.
