Book Description
This book lets the reader see into the personality of God and His love for all. He is a very diversified God and allows us to laugh or cry in these poems. We can move on from the spiritual to the very human comedy of errors that we are prone to make and we can laugh at ourselves. Some poems also describe the beauty of the world that God made exclusively for us. We can touch the face of nature and know that God is giving His approval. These poems are not so deep that they cannot be enjoyed by anyone who reads them. They were meant to be enjoyed with your favorite beverage of choice, sitting in a comfortable chair or beside a loved one in a quiet setting. Good poetry links heart to heart, mind to mind, and promotes an understanding that heightens spiritual love. May these poems do that for you, the reader.

Book Description
Captured By His Mercy...Transformed By His Love is a sequel to the book Words From The Inner Chamber. It was divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. Within its pages are quips and quotes that can be applied to our lives as we walk in the purpose and destiny God has planned for our lives. There are also poems of honor and appreciation for loved ones that have gone on before us. The Word says, "We are to give honor where honor is due". God is the "great rewarder" and has rewarded us with the privilege of having them in our lives. May this book be a blessing to all that read it and encourage you to seek His face. I pray you find that place in Him where you are Captured By His Mercy and Transformed By His Love. Susie Farina was born in Pleasantville, New Jersey. At the age of seven her family relocated to the East Greenbush, NY area, a little suburban town just outside of Albany. At the age of 15 she received the Lord as her personal Lord and Savior. It was then that she gave her heart to Him. She is married and has two children. She serves as an Administrator at the Solid Rock Church in Glenmont, New York. She is an Ordained Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The experiences she has encountered in life have caused her to seek after the Lord as He has Captured her heart By His Mercy and Transformed her away By His Love.

Author and motivational speaker Jonathan Robinson asked 40 of the most respected spiritual seekers in the world for their expert advice and personal methods for knowing God (and he also offers his own wisdom in this regard). In an attempt to gather together all the best ideas and techniques in a single book, Robinson asked each person questions such as: How do you remember and/or tune into the sacred during your everyday life?; When you meditate and/or pray, how do you connect with the Divine presence?; What miracles have you experienced on your spiritual path?; If you had one piece of advice to give those who want a deeper relationship with God; And what does the experience of God feel like to you? The secret methods and mind-expanding ideas of these spiritual leaders can help you to experience God in an entirely new way. Contributors include: Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Marianne Williamson, Louise L. Hay, Bernie Siegel, M. Scott Peck, Dalai Lama, and Mother Teresa, and more.

Book Description
Henry's is a life filled with loves and losses, hopes and dreams, with happiness and tragedy balaned by humor and kindness. His life is full, yet empty -- crowded with emotional, psychological, and philosophical dichotomies. He is John Doe wandering across the landscape and recent history of America. Henry Canary, a middle-aged writer and part-time truck driver, receives a surprise visit from Kelly Kane, the illegitimate daughter of his first girlfriend. Although Henry is not her father, 25-year-old Kelly wants to write a story about him for her magazine. She tracks him down with the intention of interviewing him, but gets involved in his life. As they travel from Santa Cruz to Los Angeles in his truck, she learns the story of a boy growing up in a factory town in Connecticut in the 1950s. During trips from L.A. to Las Vegas to Death Valley and Arizona, Kelly learns about the happy, sad, humorous and tragic events from grade school to college to Vietnam and back and hears about his succeseses and failures in love and life. Henry tries not to fall in love with the girl who reminds him so much of her mother Kelly tries not to fall in love with Henry as she learns about his family, friends, lovers and other strangers. She hears loving descriptions of favorite people, places and things as well as the tragedies and losses that we all endure in our own lives. Henry talks about his first crush at 14 on a 26-year-old woman; a high school street battle dubbed the Creampuff War; his on/off, love/hate relationship with Kelly's mother; his tour in Vietnam where he kills an "enemy"; his move to New York City after the Army; his girlfriend who was a third generation orphan; his job at a bank where the workers plot to kill their boss; his cross-country adventure with a friend and two call girls; his whirlwind marriage to a girl he hardly knew; the Summer of Love in San Francisco; graduate school; the birth and death of his son; driving a taxi in New York City; his short-lived career as a TV sit-com writer in Hollywood; the various women that came and went after his divorce; the sex, drugs and rock and roll of Greenwich Village in the early 80s; his third move to California, and his philosophis on life and God's mistakes. The story ends with an unpredictably surprising revelation.

Book Description
Why is the city a battleground of hostile principalities and powers? What is the mission of the church in the city? How can the church be supported in accomplishing that mission? These are the questions that Robert Linthicum treats in his comprehensive and probing biblical theology of the city. In the Bible the city is depicted both as a dwelling place of God and his people and as a center of power for Satan and his minions. The city is one primary stage on which the drama of salvation is played out. And that is no less the case at the end of this pivotal century as megacities become the focal point of most human activity and aspirations around the world. This is a timely theology of the city that weaves the theological images of the Bible and the social realities of the contemporary world into a revealing tapestry of truths about the urban experience. Its purpose is to define clearly the mission of the church in the midst of the urban realities and to support well the work of the church in the urban world.

Book Description
Josh Roosevelt is in love. And that's only the beginning of his problems. Returning from college to the small town of Morgan, Josh is smitten with Erica Chamberlain. But the course to true love is lined with traps and hazards, from Josh's inability to decode female signals to her missions trip to Haiti and the threat of tropical romance to introspection over the purity of his motives. Meanwhile, his lifelong church has lost its mind-if not its soul. The new pastor has a different gimmick every week and the quirky young adults group is constantly on the verge of revolt. Nothing's sacred anymore, but Josh doesn't know if he's just bitter or if dear old Morgan Bible has gone off the deep end. With the help of his best friends Scotty and Cassie, and with plenty of metaphorical advice from Scotty's golf-loving dad, Josh spends a summer pursuing Erica and contemplating his relationship with God. Will he ever get his chance to win her heart? And in what condition will he ultimately find his?
