John A. Kinley is a forty-two-year-old disillusioned United States Congressman from Indiana. Following John's retirement, an old friend introduces John to a mysterious group of investors. Their proposal stuns him--they want to provide a trillion-dollar budget for John to found his own country from inception to fruition. Though D.C. has made him skeptical, John hasn't given up on his dreams of creating a great nation. John accepts this task naively, with no idea of the strings attached to their deal.
Along for the ride, his loyal companion Mary is as supportive as ever, though with power and money comes temptation from his acquaintance Carlene, a tantalizing brunette with whom John shares a history.
Not only does John need to determine how to best run a country, starting from the ground up, but he's also determined to share his new life with the right person--though the wrong choice may have dire consequences.

David was a man after God's own heart . . .
What does it mean to be someone after God's own heart? David, King, psalmist and shepherd, gives us a picture with his own life.
In many ways he is an extraordinary role model, a man who was fully human but exceeded expectations and pointed others towards God. While the other side of David is most ordinary showing a life filled with destruction, chaos, tragedy and his personal struggle with sin. How then did David become the national hero of God's chosen people? Why is he the one character in the Bible described as a man after God's own heart? David's life offers hope to all of us. It shows that God can do extraordinary things through ordinary men and women. And David offers an insightful perspective on what it means to be truly a man, to become like David―men after God's own heart.

Soul Cats carries with it a very special and personal mission. The dying wish of soul cat Max was for his human guardian to write this very book, as he passed away just a few short weeks after.
Within the pages lies a story overflowing with deep love between Max, Flix, Howy, and their human guardians. Together, their love is the prevailing force that sees them through times of significant challenges.
Our animal-human relationships exist on a plane of consciousness that transcends that of our relationships between other humans. Soul Cats puts the reader in the perfect center of our animal-human relationship, engaging in a journey about communication, true connection, distress, and the light that gets us all through it.
We all come with our own mental and physical baggage, something that older cats from the animal shelter share in common with us. Soul Cats explores the symbiotic healing power of cats and their humans caring for one another until they one day cross the rainbow bridge on their own terms.
Soul Cats is teeming with stories--following the alpha cat Max, cerebral thinker Flix, and the ever-bright Howy. The cats and their human guardians experience situations laced with joy and emotion, but also those of profound and sobering reality.
At its core, Soul Cats makes an indisputable case for how conventional medicine, natural healing methods, and energy clearing work can create a powerful trinity of relief and deep meaning in our lives.
The experience of reading Soul Cats is one that touches the soul of the reader. It's a beautiful story that weaves together courage, deep care, and shows the power that a legacy of love can produce.
Let love and joy be your guiding principles.--Howy

She heard the call as a young girl growing up in a loving Mexican American family in Los Angeles, California. Then after high school, Rosie Robles joined the convent and became a Catholic nun. She enjoyed spending decades serving the Church, leading retreats, comforting people in hospice, and even counseling a man on death row.
Then Rosie followed her heart to leave her religious community and embark on a new life, ultimately marrying and enjoying family life while continuing to serve people with her spiritual gifts.
Now, in her engaging and inspiring memoir, Memories of My Life: Reflections of a Former Nun Led by the Spirit, Rosie shares her inspiring life story.
The book includes a Foreword by Rosie's cousin, Cheech Marin, the Hollywood movie star and comedian in Cheech and Chong films.
Though she expresses her reverence for God and the divine throughout the book, Rosie does not sugar-coat her religious experience. She writes candidly about how the Church hierarchy and parishioners alike restricted her as an ambitious and talented woman in the religious patriarchy, and how she questioned the existence of God. She also reveals incidents of inappropriate behavior by priests toward her, and how she counseled women who had been abused by priests.
All the while, Rosie's witty storytelling escorts the reader along a unique trajectory during which she formed deep friendships, trusted God's guidance and grace to lead her path, and enjoyed life's simple pleasures.
Rosie also writes about the beautiful, lifelong love that her parents shared, and how she and her husband Ron and a care team kept them happy and comfortable until they went to heaven.

Outnumbered 20 to 1 story is a force that transcends ages. Through the development of humankind's culture, the holy vessel of story has exerted a power that defines generations. A good story has the ability to entertain; a great story has the ability to inspire. But a story like Outnumbered 20 to 1 possesses the ability to transform, and so much more.
Now retired, Colonel Bill Collier fought firsthand through the devastation and brutality of the Vietnam war. And like many of his fellow soldiers that returned home, he kept many of the stories of his experiences to himself. However, there is one story that Collier knew must be shared in his lifetime. This is the story of his harrowing experience at The Battle of Mo Duc -- one of Vietnam's final battles leading up to the signing of a peace agreement that would conclude the war.
The Battle of Mo Duc follows then-Major Bill Collier and his team into a hopelessly unwinnable situation with all of the odds stacked against them. Yet even as they stared down their seemingly certain defeat, Collier and his men persevered to victory through what can only be described as the grace of God Himself.
Outnumbered 20 to 1 is a one-of-a-kind war story and so much more. It's a recounting of a remarkable life experience that occurs even less frequently than once in a lifetime. Collier's story is not only a story of perseverance and heroism but of our communion with the divine fabric of existence itself.
