Book Description
Pateros In My Spirit relives cherished fond memories and blissful narratives in the small river town of Pateros in the Pearl of the Orient Seas, that is the Philippines. This passion book captivates nostalgic aura and flavor of the decades 1950 to 1970 replete with baby boomer heritage, traditions, poetry, arts, and experiences expressed through the author’s memoir and heartily enriched by town mates’ contributed family stories and vintage photographs that eventually made it a love offering book for the appreciation of present and future generations. The storytelling’s folksy shift from light wordsmith anecdotes to historic accounts makes the book an enlightening reading experience harboring on the quality of life during the period also best portrayed by a montage of images already lost to invasive urbanization. The collective project sprang from the author’s shooting of his Soul of Fandango documentary film which revealed old town folks respondents’ endearing vivid stories better published in a book rather than presented in flickering celluloid screen. Old and young, friends of friends, and strangers in the true Filipino bayanihan (unity) spirit even raised funds for the publication of the coffee table hybrid Pateros In My Spirit and its twin book, Tale of Two Pateros, just to get their momentous chronicles pronounced and recollections preserved, if not appreciated, outside of their world. Enjoy the sojourn to memory lane of the people who dearly call themselves Paterosinos.

Book Description
Tale of Two Pateros chronicles the collective endeavors and triumphs in achieving sisterhood unity of the peoples of Pateros City in Washington State and Pateros in the Philippines, sparked by the circumstantial encounter and curious exploration of a group of Filipino-American travelers motoring back from a Canada visit. Originally envisioned as the last chapter of Pateros in My Spirit collegial memoir book, the author spun it into a separate pictorial publication after townmates (who love being called ka-Paterosinos) enormously contributed a rich photographic collection of interrelated events and even entailing the funding to produce this touching love offering to their cherished homeplace back in the Philippines and the other Pateros enjoyed fondly as a paradise by the Cascade Mountains in the Okanogan Valley. The two Pateros, though oceans apart and linked only in 1900 in name by a homecoming Washington military officer veteran of the Spanish-American War, rediscovered each other’s history, heritage, and culture by majesty of diplomacy and blossomed friendship, formalized during the signing of sisterhood agreement amid the momentous celebration of the one hundredth year anniversary of the founding of Pateros City in 2013. Tale of Two Pateros is a clarion saga of that attainment of accord and unification preserved in engaging narratives and a feast of images offered to the future generations of the two Pateros and enticed readers.

Book Description
God has a unique calling for every individual that fits His special plan and purpose for your life. This calling is the way you are to live on the earth and encompasses all your being and doing. Essentially, calling refers to belonging to Christ and participating in His redemptive work in the world in the special way He has called you. The two books in this series will help you to discern your calling from God and then pursue that calling with passion and obedience, relying on the Lord Jesus Christ to fulfill the calling by doing His work in you and through you. In the process, you will experience miracles from God – all to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ! You will benefit by getting to know God in a personal way, deepening your daily walk with Him, and fulfilling your calling. By discerning, responding, and fulfilling your calling, you will experience the abundant life God intends you to have (John 10:10). In his books, Dr. Naresh Malhotra thoroughly explains the various callings of God with great insight from the Scriptures. Whether you are trying to discern and respond to the calling of God on your life, I encourage you to read both books, starting with God is Calling You: Discerning the Calling of God, and following it up with his second book, God is Calling You: Responding to the Calling of God. Dr. Charles Stanley Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church, Atlanta Founder and President of In Touch MinistriesThese powerful and compelling volumes will not only inspire and challenge you to greater Christian living but could very well bring spiritual renewal and revival to the Christian Church.Dr. J.

Book Description
Colorado is the scene of a thriving culture of breweries. From Coors, America's largest single-site brewery, to Three Barrel Brewing Company, found in the back of an insurance office, each and every one holds a unique place in the state's brewing scene. For two years, author Ed Sealover traveled the state, speaking to more than one hundred brewers and learning what makes each place special, detailing their histories, quirks and signature beers. With profiles of breweries ranging from the world-renowned New Belgium Brewing Company to the Silverton Brewery, whose location is so isolated that its taproom shuts down six months out of the year, Mountain Brew: A Guide to Colorado's Breweries is a perfect companion for beer geeks and thirsty travelers.
