Book Description
Whether you like it or not, if you have a dog you are training it. The question is are you training it for good or are you training it for bad. Training starts before training starts. How you live with your dog dictates how your dog lives with you. They learn from everything we do, good and bad. They miss nothing. They know us better than we know ourselves. They learn from everything we don't do. Obedience commands don't create a well behaved dog. Raising a dog and teaching along the way does. No parent says they are going outside to train their kids. We just raise them and teach them 24 hours a day and try to provide guidance so eventually our children can make the right decisions on their own. Dogs are no different. Live right with them. They are not children. They are animals and must be respected as such. And they are a precious gift that are not here long enough so enjoy every minute and never take them for granted.

Book Description
Living authentically was the message that Pastor Eddie Lawrence preached to his flock, but his truth went no further than the pulpit. Although he was openly bisexual on social media, the cleric was often sidetracked by being closeted within his church. Living in the light with Tiara for all his congregation to see was one thing. Living a separate secret life with O'Neill, however, would completely flip his life all the way around.Trapped between living authentically and maintaining a façade for family and Church, forces Pastor Lawrence to make some choices that are detrimental to all those around him. Taking a break from the secluded life of his ministry and preaching virtually seems to be the solution to his unholy dilemma, until his real life inevitably catches up with him.New relationships-- both male and female-- give the cleric temporary pleasure, albeit with lots of drama. Tiara is pushing Pastor Lawrence to marry her, while O'Neill instead encourages him to live in his truth. Finding himself entangled in lies, sex, addictions, and webs of deception, Pastor Lawrence must struggle to reconcile these soul-wrenching contradictions, all while trying to preach the word of God every Sunday!.

What is so special about Jesus that He could die for the sins of all humankind? Why was His death a requirement for salvation to be accomplished? What takes place in the soul and spirit as we hear the gospel of Christ? What are the changes that occur in those who accept Jesus as their savior?

Book Description
Wayne Cordeiro found himself paralyzed by burnout. He had been in ministry for 30 years, and 10 years after founding what is now the largest church in Hawaii, he found himself depleted. Wayne took a season out of his growing ministry to recharge and refocus on the truly important. He was able to get back in touch with his life, get back in proper balance, and re-energize his spirit through Christ in a way that propelled him forward to greater levels of service. Wayne first gave this message at a recent Willow Creek Leadership Summit, where it was the highest-rated presentation by those in attendance. Pulling no punches, Wayne talks about the walls leaders must break through and how to move on with integrity. Included are ways to care for oneself physically and emotionally as well as spiritually.

Book Description
Red Neck, Blue Collar, Atheist - Simple Thoughts About Reason, Gods and Faith follows in the footsteps of recent best-sellers such as Christopher Hitchens' God is Not Great, Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion, and Sam Harris' The End of Faith. Whereas Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris have written mainly about the rational basis, the WHY of atheism, this book looks at the HOW - how it feels, how it works, from the inside. Coming from a writer who grew up in Texas and worked as a real cowboy and draft horse teamster (the cover picture even shows the author riding a bull!), as well as a carpenter, roofer and truck driver, the book is based on decades of examining the process in his own mind as he moved from Christianity to atheism. Putting it simply, here are some of the things an atheist might think, and the way he or she might think them. More than once called a master of metaphor in the blogosphere, author Hank Fox tackles the subject of atheism with subtle humor and a friendly, informal tone, in two dozen chapters with names like Sundae Worship, The Parable of the M&Ms, Batman Almighty, The Wellspring of the Gods, Sucking Up to the Virgin Mary, The Evidence of True Things, The Headwaters of Reality, Hello Mr. Death, and Saying Goodbye to Gods. Primarily aimed at young adults, especially those from religious backgrounds and new to thinking about atheism and freethought, this book will also provide ammunition for those of a more intellectual bent faced with the necessity of explaining atheism in simple terms to friends and relatives. Best of all, the book focuses not just on the negatives of religion, but on the positives of atheism - the freedom and mental clarity for individuals, but also the hopeful future for our entire world as we proceed with a social revolution already in progress.
