Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Journey through Faith is an account of one man's journey experiencing and learning obedience to God's word. Jack is a marvelous storyteller. He uses that skill to illustrate from his own life how he walks out his faith in everyday life. It will stir your heart to perfect your own faith. Many have written on this foundational subject. But no one can tell the old story quite like Jack. He is a member of Fullness in Christ Church, Fort Worth, TX where he demonstrates his faith well. Ras Robinson, President Fullness in Christ Ministries, Inc. Fort Worth, TX 76179 A Journey through Faith is full of present-day experiences and lessons learned that have taken me from a lost soul to faithful Christian living. My journey through faith is not over. I know that I will continue to follow Jesus through this world until I pass from this world into Heaven. I pray the readers will gain insights with these experiences and lessons that will ease the trials of their own walk as Christians. But the greatest knowledge I can pass on is we will be in Heaven with Jesus if we can learn to take up our cross and follow Him.----Jack Snyder Jack sees a need, and moves to meet it! That expression speaks to his writing "A Journey through Faith." Jack's writings come from his experiential faith and love in action. The reader will enjoy his down home, often humorous practical interpretation of Scriptural truth. I highly recommend a thoughtful consideration of "A Journey through Faith." Pastor Eddie Howard, Christian Fellowship Church, Albuquerque, NM Jack Snyder lives in Fort Worth, TX with his wife, Shirley. They sing southern gospel songs in an Alzheimer/memory care center. Jack leads adult Bible studies and a prayer group on Thursday evenings.

Book excerpt: Proof of Divine presents the journey of author Andrew Murtagh as he straddles the fence between faith and cynicism. Coming off autopilot in the race to the top of corporate America, he goes for an all-or-none look at the greatest story ever told. Blending his family's incredible stories of survival, faith, and hope--matched with his own walk from hockey player to coach to husband, father, and career man--he embarks on a five-year journey on the question of a greater meaning and critical investigation of theism and Christianity. Is there a God? Are science and faith mutually exclusive? Are all credible scientists atheists? How do the sciences' founding fathers and scientific thought leaders of the modern day weigh in on the matter? What is the state of the union with the origin of the universe and life? Is the Bible historically and archaeologically reliable? What of morality, purpose, and meaning? Who is the historical Jesus, and why Christianity? The graze of a bullet, a soldier surrounded, an armed robbery, and a fateful desert drive--Murtagh puts the faith of his youth to the ultimate test: the Proof of Divine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the oppression and terror of the killing fields in Cambodia, this is the story of how one man's conversion led to a rebirth of faith that brought hope to a nation. Commissioned by Communists to spy on a Christian evangelistic crusade, Barnabas Mam instead discovered Jesus and came to faith in Him. After spending four years in prison camps at the hands of the Khmer Rouge Barnabas emerged as one of only 200 surviving Christians in all of Cambodia. God raised him up to became the foremost evangelist and church planter in a land broken by genocide. An inspiring story on a personal, church, and national level, this is more than a narrative--it's a blueprint for success for church growth of the most powerful kind.

Book excerpt: An ECPA 2003 Gold Medallion Finalist!Listed inBooklist'sBest Adult Religion Books of the Year in 2002!His books have sold millions, including classics likeMere Christianity, The Screwtape LettersandThe Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.Yet C. S. Lewis was not always a literary giant of Christian faith. How did he leave behind a staunch atheism to become one of the most beloved and renowned Christian authors of our time?Other biographies of Lewis explore his childhood or his dramatic conversion to Christianity. But as David Downing reveals in this fascinating book, the rarely discussed period from Lewis's childhood to his early thirties took him on a tumultuous journey of spiritual and intellectual exploration before he became a "most reluctant convert." It was not despite this journey but precisely because of it that Lewis understood the search for life's ultimate meaning so well and went on to become one of the most compelling authors of the twentieth century. Weaving the people, places and events of Lewis's life together with excerpts from Lewis's own writing, Downing shows how Lewis's spiritual quest can also light the path for other seekers.

Gustav, who one day came home from work and discovered an empty house, shares poetry that provide a realistic glimpse into what it is really like to experience the breakup of a marriage, to lose your children, to endure monumental financial challenges, to survive betrayal from other family members, to grapple with a variety of emotions that accompany such a life-shattering chain of events, and finally, to be guided to change. Through it all, Gustav provides inspiration to others that it is indeed possible to find hope, inner-peace, and love after suffering a personal tragedy. From Hell to Heaven, One Mans Journey shares introspective reflections from an honest man as he learns to survive lifes greatest heartaches and transform his anger into understanding love.

Book excerpt: A truly inspirational read. Ken Johnson not only speaks to the reader from an honest and open perspective about his personal life, but employs the use of insight and metaphor to challenge the reader to self-reflect upon his or her life as well. Born into an impoverished situation, both monetarily and spiritually, Journey to Excellence is an autobiographical story of one man's journey to challenge his birth-given circumstance and rise above his childhood influences to lead a life committed to God. Born the third child of a family of six to a father addicted to heroin and a mother attempting at all personal and moral cost to keep her children fed and together, the reader will walk along side Ken at various stages of his life as he learns to overcome the many temptations placed before him and decides to live his life to influence others to live their lives through Christ. The reader will be captivated by how candidly Ken Johnson speaks about his early childhood experiences, his un-adhered pact with God when faced with a serious neck injury, and his triumph against many modern day vices that led him to be the influential speaker, motivator, and leader that he is today. Join Ken Johnson on his Journey to Excellence and learn how he motivates others to live life taking responsibility for self, family, and community.
