Book Description
On a warm summer’s evening, while riding his bicycle with his girlfriend down a gentle slope something inexplicable happened. Suddenly, Adam flew over his handle bars, bounced on the street, and crushed the back of his head. TBI—traumatic brain injury. In that moment, as told by his father, Robert V. Bullough, Jr., Adam’s life and the life of his family changed forever. Like tens of thousands of other young people who probably rode their bikes that day, Adam was not wearing a helmet. “Adam’s Fall” tells a very personal story of a young man’s struggle to survive first while in prolonged coma and then to heal and to recover himself. It is a story of the heroic efforts of doctors, nurses and therapists who saved his life and of those who have since supported his healing. But mostly, it is a story of a family facing every parent’s worst nightmare, a story of faith and of hope that continues to unfold in often surprising ways.

Book Description
"I didn’t see my father again until the morgue yesterday. He looked all right, a little pinker and puffier than usual. Then they closed the lid." For Adam Lamb, this loss is definitely not an existentialist experience. Instead, the funeral guests - who slowly drift in to a service where the pastor’s only role is to keep his mouth shut and let the music play - open the lid on his dad’s own philosophy. In a tender moment, with the friends, ex-lovers, and colleagues of the late Charley Lamb raising a drink and sharing memories, Adam experiences the peeling back of accumulated years. …as the evening wore on, all these people around the table, though at least a half a century old – except Barbara Chardon and myself – started looking much younger. I began seeing their faces as if they were the ages they were when all these things happened. Lou-Lou was seventeen. Isabella was twenty-five. Pittet and Danny Dapper were cruising through their forties and fifties. And I was seeing my father through the years after he moved to Switzerland and made a life for himself – both before and after he made me. But the life-changing surprise for him isn’t his dad’s colourful past, or the momentary shift in time and space. It’s connected to the hand that gently touches his elbow and escorts him to the cemetery, as the moon hangs like a streetlamp over the Alps.

Things weren't supposed to turn out this way. My story should have been different. Happier. Maybe in another life, it would've been. But, life isn't a fairy tale, and the good guys don't always win.I didn't mean to cause anyone pain. I just wanted to end my own. The letter, his words-crushed me. It seemed as if there was no other way out. Nothing can change what happened, and nothing could have prepared me for what came after those two words: Dear Adam.**WARNING: This story contains suicidal material that may be sensitive to some readers. **

Book Description
I am writing this book "The Life as a Minister" to share with the Christian faith and leaders my lasting excitement while serving in a leadership capacity as a minister. No other area of intellectual work has gotten my attention that overlaps so many fields of knowledge. I looked at how science and humanities offer such varied insight into troubling questions of our time. I believe any one who use this text will come to an understanding that ministry starts by serving, which is the door for the blessings to flow. As a minister, I found that the way ministry is conducted has a social change as well. The church is affected by how we live and respond to our surroundings. This is also found in my introduction as well. The inspiration by the Holy Spirit to put in writing the uniqueness of how God deals with His highest creation (man). In this book you will find some richness that will guide you on your road to victory. I believe without fail that in great specifics throughout the book that you will come to an understanding of how the Life as a Minister really is. There is no glamour by far in the position as a minister however I was compelled to share my walk with you. I believe that while you are experiencing the particularly chosen words demonstrating some characteristics that will cause you to look at your walk. God will be in your mist and will quicken your spirit illuminating His word to you. Also I want you to understand your walk may not be like mine but if you achieve the elevation to this position you would have some closer insight on what could possibly be awaiting you. Within these pages hold some dear events that have molded my character and way of life. Surely there will be times of mourning but when God is for you then who in the world can be against you. Enjoy the richness.
