Is God still active around the world today desiring to reach mankind with a personal relationship, or is He just a God from the pages of a two-thousand-year-old book? Jeff Jackson takes you on a few personal journeys to find out the lengths that God is willing to go in using ordinary people to make this relationship a reality no matter where people are found.

We live in a world today where chaos and uncertainty rule the world. God's story offers the opportunity to thrive and coexist in our own communities. This book offers a chance to help people to connect with God in a relationship that is very different than the fearful world that surrounds us. Our World... God's Story is about a road that leads to the path of righteousness and the kingdom of heaven.

We all face and respond to the different circumstances surrounding our lives in different ways. Spending time in God's Word can help one to recognize that God desires to spend time and hear from each of His children and is very similar to how a parent loves to spend time and hear from their own children. No matter how good or how bad these daily circumstances are, He is always waiting with open arms to spend time with us. Whether we just need to thank Him for His many blessings or simply ask why things are the way they are, He is always standing at the door waiting. Since the book of Psalms deals with many circumstances of life, hopefully one can begin to understand that God really does care and will listen. In this book, each Psalm or part of the Psalm can be read out loud or quietly, and then there is a simple heartfelt prayer after each one to assist in recognizing how sovereign He is and how dependent we really are on His protection every second of our life.

A Miracle in the Midst is based on my out-of-body and the present experiences with the Lord anointing me and giving me a chance to show His mercy and grace, sending me back and showing those that He is the same as yesterday, today, and forever as He said in His word.

Seven days. Is this wisp of time enough to save a life, a family, or even a nation? As shrewd as he is charismatic, Congressman Nathan Perry has strategically vanquished each of his opponents to emerge as the champion of the Freedom Party in the presidential race of the year 2000. He is driven by a secret agenda that allies him with a powerful, unscrupulous mentor and that threatens to divide the Union politically and racially. Clearly, Perry's meteoric rise has not been without moral compromise. Neither has it been without a desperate inner urgency.Since the death of his father, Nathan and his mother, Dr. Olivia Perry, have grappled with the specter of a generational evil that kills the firstborn Perry males at or not long after age forty. This was just the stuff of old family superstitions passed down from antebellum days...wasn't it? But now, the presidential campaign has led Congressman Perry back to his hometown, Vicksburg, Mississippi, which proudly and joyfully receives its native son. However, not all are happy about his bid for the White House. Opponents seize this time to strike, and forces for and against Nathan Perry clash--as his fortieth birthday relentlessly approaches.

Have you ever said or been told, "You don't have a choice"? We live in a time where many believers feel that they don't have a choice and must bow to the ways of this world. I hear believers saying they don't want to do something, yet they say they have no choice. But they do have a choice. You Choose will help believers to understand they have a choice. What they often don't like is the consequences of a choice. You Choose looks at accounts in the Old and New Testaments showing choices made and the results of those choices. Through Scripture, you will discover that God gave man the ability to choose and that we always have a choice. You will know the most incredible choice God has given man. You will also learn of an eventual choice every living person must make.

A Vagabond Life is a true story of a family lost. Told by Michael, the oldest son, it chronicles the challenges that arise from a lack of nurturing and a deep hunger for fatherly attention. His father is a man with demons, no paternal instinct, and no desire to improve. Michael, however, longs for the tender, intelligent father often exposed when demons allow it. His mother means well, but her youth and lack of education or marketable skills leaves her struggling to keep a roof over her family's heads. The births of six siblings over the course of nine years combine with ongoing evictions, neglect, and cyclical despair to form the backdrop for Michael's childhood and coming of age. With resilience, determination, and some glimmers of good fortune, Michael ultimately rises above his circumstances. Rich with both heartache and inspiration, A Vagabond Life digs deep to untangle the elements of his upbringing and make meaning of the factors impacting not only his life but those of his siblings and future generations.

In 1997, Tom Holmes was diagnosed with a neurological disorder called primary lateral sclerosis (PLS). As he struggled to adapt to that disability, he realized that he had experienced several other losses during what were then the middle years of his life, and it dawned on him that gradually he began to view those losses not only as tragedies, as "bad things that happen to good people," but also as profound opportunities to grow up in the way he relates to the world as it is, to the people in his life and to God. He uses the term response-ability for the art of using losses as opportunities for maturing in faith.

A map almost ruined our honeymoon. It was our second day of marriage, and as we were driving up the Olympic Peninsula to Port Angeles, I found it difficult to read the map and drive at the same time. So I handed the map to my Debbie and asked her to tell me where to turn.As a new believer, I felt like Debbie: Someone hands you a Bible and expects you to know how to read it. Jesus had transformed me into a new creation, but I was a baby who did childish things and needed a parent to nurture me along and stimulate my spiritual development. I hope that in a way, I can be that for you as you read the lessons I learned in my pursuit to be a follower of Christ, such aslearning to effectively tell people how Jesus changed my life,becoming consistent in spending time alone with God,letting prayer be a vital part of my life,discovering what helps grow my faith,finding an easy way to study the Bible, andmastering sin in my life.I thank my heavenly Father and Lord Jesus for my journey because with each lesson, I have grown closer to Them. As that intimacy deepens, so does the longing to be with Them in heaven. My prayer is that this will happen to you as I share my journey with you.

Can anything good come out of conflict? Whether we like it or not, conflict is an important part of our lives. Jesus plainly told us we would have tribulation but also encouraged us to take heart because He has overcome the world (John 16:33). The world offers many solutions to conflicts, and too often, we borrow its methods. Unsurprisingly, we obtain similar results with divorce rates, infighting, power struggles, broken relationships, and church disunity. In this book, we explore God's purpose in allowing conflict and how to handle it according to His plan. Jesus is building His church, and as we cooperate with Him, we will reap the eternal rewards of overcoming through conflict.He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. (Revelation 3:21)
