Book Description
The purpose of this book is to bring glory to God by promoting the Christian values that made America great - values such as biblical masculinity; biblical marriage and biblical family life; the God-honoring values that are directly under open and vile attack; to influence a generation of American men to live God-honoring lives worthy of the calling and appellation of "Christian;" to demonstrate the importance of male servant leadership in the home; to demonstrate the imperative of Christian fellowship and discipleship; to encourage believers to persevere in their verbal witness in spite of ostracism and/or legal action against them; and above all to awaken Christian American men who are serving the nation to the realities of the conflict we are in, and what we stand to lose if we do nothing.

Book Description
In today's uncertain world, storms will arise that test your faith in a loving heavenly Father. At times, the winds and waves of the world's deceptions will roll in and seek to erode your confidence in God. Without a firm foundation in the truth of God's Word, you may be tempted to go off course and accept less than God's best for you. However, when you hear Jesus' words, receive them, and put them into practice, you will construct a life the torrents cannot shake, "because it was well built" (Luke 6:48). The Purple Book will help you understand foundational truths that God wants you to hear on topics such as sin, salvation, spiritual gifts, prayer, worship, generosity, and evangelism. It will show you how the Bible is "God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16). It will help you understand that the faith you hold has true power to change lives and transform nations. It will give you a solid foundation the enemy cannot dismantle—and a heart shaped by knowledge of God's Word.

Book Description
For decades, the drug abuse epidemic has been growing. The government has declared opioid addiction to be a crisis. But with all the money and effort spent, we are not winning the war. All the king’s horses and all the king’s men can’t put the drugged up Humpty Dumptys back together again. The church offers the solution to the drug problem. As Iron Sharpens Iron opens with “Katherina,” a woman struggling with drug addiction who is crying out for help, she experiences the horror of the drug world and how it is destroying her life, including her relationships with others. She becomes isolated and looks for guidance to stop her out-of-control life. Katherina meets the author and reluctantly asks him for help to conquer her voluntary slavery of addiction. He takes her to faith-based meetings, to church and church functions, where she was ministered to and shown the light. The people, including the author’s parents, are a good witness to her and brings her away from the dark drug world and into the light of Jesus. Katherina accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior, and his work is evident in her life. After God calls Katherina home, the author connected to a faith-based ministry for drug addicts and those suffering from other hurts and hang-ups. The story of Katherina’s struggle with drugs and her victory, through Christ, is interwoven with an in-depth look at the root of the problem.
