Bride of Covid Chronicles is a daily trip through the wayward thought patterns of a 76 year old man. A word, phrase, idea, would strike me and I'd be off and running with whatever rose into my compost heap of a mind. Something like stacking bricks to lay a wall without a level. A few times the wall would end up plumb and straight, most times it would wander like a drunkard trying to find a dimly lit men's room in a low rent district bar.

The Cooking Manual: Demystifying the Cooking Process and over 80+ Great Recipes has everything you need to know about cooking indoors and outdoors. As an entrepreneur, I have traveled and eaten/dined all over the world, and I have been cooking and creating my own recipes for over forty years.I cover all the kitchen accessories--types of knives, mixers, processors, and many other useful gadgets--and how to use them, also outdoor grills, smokers, and pizza ovens. This book also contains wine tables and information on basic herbs and spices, how they are best used, and the different cuts of meats (from cow, pig, lamb, and poultry), including a section on cooking terms. I have also included pictures; I dislike cookbooks that don't show you what the food should look like. In my book, I have also included eighty-plus of my recipes that I created for friends and family from scratch, using fresh ingredients. In the recipes I basically create meals with drink pairings as well. So enjoy!

For sixteen year old Danny Anderson life is about to change. School is out and summer is here and hanging with his friends is all he wants to do, but there are some things he just can't share with his best friend, Nate. And then a handsome young stranger, not much older than he is, arrives in town and his world is turned upside down. The summer was now turning into something he could only ever dream of as he begins a journey of self discovery filled with new adventures and experiences, a new friendship and just a hint of danger.

Draftee (A Buffoon in Vietnam) is the true tale of a young man's days in the U.S. Army from October 1968 to September, 1970. Draftee is a story filled with dark humor, deep irony, life and death in combat, the author's reflections on his role as a grunt in Vietnam and finally, his days at Schofield Barracks. This is not a tale writ large on world affairs, instead is the story of a man caught up in forces he could not control.

A young man grows up in the 1960s with the guidance of his unusual uncle. Together they explore the wilderness of northwest Manitoba by canoe, build a cabin in northeast Minnesota and come to know each other deeply through the young man's letters as an infantryman in the Mekong Delta.

In 1980 a young couple bought nine acres of land in northern Minnesota and built a cabin. A real cabin that is, with electricity, no plumbing, and the finest outhouse in Christendom. Over the years friends and relatives visited to share in the joy of mosquitoes and ticks. Eventually the cabin became the center for wilderness canoe fishing. A large dollop of humor and a seasoned hint of thought complete the stew of this memoir.

Do you believe you will live for eternity? Or do you believe that life on this earth is all there is? If this life is all there is, what is the meaning of it? Are you sure you know? Many, if not most, of the people in this world never even contemplate these questions.When you do, you must realize that each of us could be wrong in our assumptions about this present life, as well as what is waiting for us after our lives have run their course! Some of us seem to have everything that could make us happy-yet we struggle with heartaches that keep us from the true happiness we should have. After all, isn't that what we are all seeking: true happiness? But what if the "happiness" we are so intent on achieving is really a lie this world imposes on us? Is there anything in this world that will indeed give us true joy? Come along in this compelling read to get some answers to these questions and others you may have about what you are really seeking in this life-and in the life to come!What people are saying about If You Die Today!"'Jesus is not as concerned with what we do, but with what we are.' This is a precious pearl of truth that Dr. Mark Peters holds up to the light in his new book, If You Die Today! Where Will You Be Tomorrow?Dr. Peters employs a format similar to his previous two books, wherein he bases each of the 11 chapters upon a singular element of the title, be it word or punctuation mark. These individual elements provide a springboard for diving deep into the different components of the title question.What especially struck me about the way Mark brought answers to the surface, was how he attached a beatitude to each one and allowed the teaching of Jesus to float it up to the top. Thus, each chapter builds upon the preceding chapter in much the same way that the beatitudes build upon each other. This really depicts the transformative progression that occurs when one is drawn to Christ by God's grace, dies to self, and is nourished by faith in Christ to produce spiritual fruit. This is the kind of fruit that is good today, will be good tomorrow, and lasts forever.Thanks again, Mark, for not only being a hearer of the word but a doer who encourages others by your candidness, transparency, and steadfast commitment to the Word of God and the love of Jesus Christ!" -Mr. Bob Leffingwell"Fantastic book! Best of the three that Mark has written! Drives home the point that we let our busy lives keep us from spending time with our Lord and Savior. The pivotal question we all must face is in the title: If You Die Today! Where Will You Be Tomorrow?" -Dr. Buddy McClung"The eternity of man is at stake, and the solution is the gospel for it is the power of God for salvation. How will we respond to a world that desperately needs to hear this message? Mark unashamedly proclaims the good news of the gospel and shares his life experiences of living this out. His stories are captivating, his exhortation for believers to deepen their faith is unfeigned, and his passion for sharing Christ is encouraging. The question of one's eternity is paramount and as I read this book it challenged me to think about how I should be sharing the gospel with the people who God has put in my life." -Mr. Jon Helander

Who's in charge of your family...ANYONE? WILL YOU BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE? Our society is rapidly changing, and many would say things are not changing for the better. As the family deteriorates, who can help us with the huge deficit of moral truthfulness that we all face in our world? It seems impossible to stem the tide of information overload threatening the existence of our current families. If we don't make effective inroads against it there is little hope for the generations of those who follow us to have loving families of their own. What priorities are you focused on? Who and what are winning the battle for your heart, soul, & mind? The "dumbing-down" and elimination of the father as the Spiritual leader of the family is tragic. Many families are broken, splintered, and injured, strewn along the roadside of convenient and easy divorce. We are seeing the tremendously high price paid by all of us within this catastrophic debacle! In fact, some would say that even the "Christian" family is in "MELTDOWN!" mode... There is only one hope for the state of affairs in our modern, broken families, and that hope is under attack from the media, judiciary, and even our elected officials. Our nation has turned its back on the only Savior Who can truly save her! Join author Mark Peters as he looks at where our families seem to be headed in these difficult and tumultuous times. READ this book if you want to take a serious look at yourself...your family...and your walk of faith!
