Prove It: A Climate Revelation for People Just like You! presents a readable, nontechnical explanation of what does and does not cause "climate change." The conclusions are new to the climate debate, they are demonstrably proven, and they convey the feeling of comfort that follows naturally from plain spoken truth. The book's theme, "Climate cycles, not climate change," is supported by proven science in many disciplines. Because highly relevant proven facts are being widely ignored, there is a need for understanding by the "people" of all the facts before prudent policy can be set.The book directly challenges the prevailing "settled science" of climate theories in the United States, which is demonstrably incorrect. If left unchallenged, these theories will cause economic and psychological damage to many people for many years to come. Short chapters in the book are devoted to what is in fact very complex science (e.g., photosynthesis, changes in the earth's orbit about the sun, and the critical importance of CO2 in the oceans and atmosphere to sustain life on earth). The perhaps surprising definition of fossil fuels as "stored solar energy" is directly related to the documented decline of atmospheric CO2 content over the last 500 million years. We present a hypothesis as to why this decline in CO2 is happening.There is a playful tone; for example, CO2 is introduced with the metaphor of Beauty and the Beast, with CO2, the source of life, widely feared as the Beast embodiment of the evils of industrialization! The story is child-friendly, definitely not nightmare material.In summary, the ultimate aim of this book is to inform and teach, and the ultimate audience is the students of present and future generations.

This book was written in the hopes of strengthening the faith of believers and of presenting strong evidence to nonbelievers of the veracity of the Scriptures.Over and over again, the Bible has come under attack, only to be vindicated. And over and over again, professing atheists have become strong believers in God after doing research, with the very purpose of disproving the Scriptures.I believe there is overwhelming evidence from various fields of study to support Christian beliefs.This book could be valuable in helping teachers to address areas of doubt that students may have regarding the Scriptures. The chapters could be used as individual lessons.For nonbelievers, the gospel message is for us to realize that we are sinners in need of a Savior and that Jesus, the sinless Son of God, provided the perfect sacrifice to pay for our sins on the cross. By acknowledging this to God, we are saved by grace.The story of the prodigal son is a well-known Bible story. Really, it is much more the story of the father than of the son. It shows that if we repent and come to God, he will run to meet us with open arms.Instead of seeing God as someone with a spindly finger shaking at you, I hope you will realize his great love for you and come to him. He is just a prayer away.We are all left with our own choice to make. I hope you choose Jesus.

So I wanted to share who you are with you. So in fiction form and with much anticipation, I bring you up to heaven to the Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother as they begin their journey to find you.

This book of short stories is for the enjoyment of the child who hears or reads each story. Although these stories, of course, are fictional, the cats named in each story are or have been a real family cat at one time or another. And when the reader reads with enthusiasm, suspense, and laughter, the child will become engaged and will want to hear it over and over again, which instills in the child the good behavior implied in each story.The moral or good behavior in each story suggests a Christian character followed by a scripture that applies to that characteristic, such as being kind, loving others that may be different, not being a bully, and acknowledging and being thankful for the gifts and protection that God has given each of us. This is also an opportunity for the reader to interact more with the child in the teaching of these characteristics, which will ultimately and hopefully become a vital part of their lives as children and adults.At the end of each story, there is a short biography of the real cat and the true facts that are written within the context of the story. Also, at the end of the book are a few pictures of each cat in real life.

The story of the Liberian civil war may have fizzled out of the minds of those who were old enough to read about it or watch it on television. It was one of the many recorded atrocities of the twenty-first century when humans turned on themselves for no reason other than the vain pursuit of power. To the author, it was a period of loss, pain, anguish, disease, starvation, and a life of uncertainty. This memoir gives an account of how the author and his sister lost their parents in the civil war and survived under inexplicable circumstances when adults fully capable of fending for themselves did not. It simply shows that the strong hand of God keeps those who are helpless and shows up for them in ways and places that are beyond human explanations. You need to read this book to know how helpless humans are without the help of God. When left to our own devices, we will go to whatever extent to unleash pain and suffering on our fellow humans to get and keep power.

ADAM SMITH was a Scottish philosopher who developed a theory of government that would promote his free market capitalistic ideas. This system, if followed carefully would create the wealthiest and most successful country ever. His book called The Wealth of Nations, which described his proposed system, was published in 1776. Our founding fathers read and studied his writings over the next ten to twelve years, melded it with our Declaration of Independence and produced our constitution. Alexander Hamilton, perhaps our most intelligent founding father, spent most of his years as Secretary of the Treasury under President Washington developing and implementing policies that would facilitate and promote Smith's ideas. Over the next 125 years our country closely followed Smith's teachings and we did become the richest most powerful country the world had ever seen. This treatise examines the lives of the presidents, giving insight into what in their formative years helped shape their philosophy of leadership. It also addresses how well they followed Smith's teachings while in office. Since 1913, we have had four significant turns away from Smith's guidance, which have cost us much blood and treasure. The last turn began in 1988, and we are still dealing with its ill effects.

My first youth book, Aria, was fun to write, and this book is a continuation of Aria's journey as an angel of hope. This book is for a slightly older audience. It was interesting to research places of good and evil for this story. The demons got what they deserved! I am sure you approve. Free will is a gift from God, but he does allow us to make mistakes. Aria has me mesmerized. I hope you have enjoyed her! She may show up again with a new adventure. God bless your day.

Youth and coming of age in the latter half of the twentieth century offered countless challenges, exposures, and opportunities. For an African American female born and living in the South, challenges, exposures, and opportunities had a decidedly different perspective than the realities of White contemporaries. Understanding quite early that the playing field was far from level, finding ways to discover one's gifts and abilities, to have ones worth validated became a lifelong quest. And to learn that the validation of ones worth when personally discovered is a liberating reality.Meeting a litany of hurdles, some self-imposed and a great many incited by the indelible elements of the times, finding ways to circumvent and overcome challenges were integral necessities. Learning to see, absorb, and advance beyond obstacles became lifelong strategies, while finding strength and even joy in the ultimate process.My Amazing Journey: A Celebration of Seasons and Travelers Along the Way captures the impact that everyday individuals make helping to weave the tapestry of a single life. Gratefully, all along the way were balcony people making seismic contributions, often persons with no point of reference or hope for what could actually be attained. These contributors to activities and experiences that in themselves seemed inconsequential shaped a life to not just survive, but to thrive against the ceaseless barrage of insurmountable odds. In spite of the ever-present realities of injustice, inequity, and racism, hope burst through in unsuspecting ways again and again, daring failure to win.

God placed a desire to write a book about my faith and share it with whoever would seek to read it. It was written initially as a guide or counsel to my kids in hopes they may avoid some of the pitfalls in life I experienced. As the book was being written, it became clear that many others might benefit from my experiences in life and how ultimately it was faith that rose to the top and made all things possible. The desire is to grow the kingdom of God. Hopefully this book will serve that purpose.

As a young man, he elected to go to Vietnam as an enlisted soldier. While there, he fathered a daughter that he kept secret from his family his entire life.
