"Deep In The City" uses modern setting and characters to retell the familiar and favorite story of "Goldilocks and The Three Bears." Rather than a fantasy tale of a little girl lost in the woods who finds porridge and beds who belong to bears, we have Kaitlyn and her family who live in a condo in the middle of a big city. They go out for a morning stroll while a young visitor, Sandy, visits their home after entering through an unlocked door. The events that follow parallel the familiar story with a surprise ending.

"There are painted, red doors, On the barn that number four, Near the three, big, apple trees, That are flowering for the bees, Close to the cows that say moo, That number well more than two, Under one bright sun, For me to have fun, Here on the farm."

The Word of God is a source of affirmation and encouragement, particularly for young children still discovering who they are. Verses such as 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 - "Anyone who belongs to Christ is a new person. The past is forgotten, and everything is new," remind us that our past does not determine our future, because God has promised us new life in Him through Jesus Christ. Written as an affirmation for every child who has accepted the precious gift of salvation, and an encouragement for those yet to make the choice, I Am A New Creation reminds us of the hope we have in Christ and the opportunity to become who He wants us to be."In Christ, we are a new creation. In Him, all things are made new!" As part of an introductory collection by the author, I Am a New Creation is filled with declarations inspired by and pulled directly from passages in the Bible. Whether read aloud with a parent, memorized as simple poetry or translated into song, these declarations will be enjoyed over and over again, helping children to understand and appreciate God's design. Simple language combined with rich vocabulary supports the needs of emerging readers, while carefully-selected imagery, diverse portraits and graphics in a hand-drawn style, provide a relatable reference for young children of any background.

Five Levels of Love -Why do people do what they do? How can I understand why I do what I do?We know God has given us the ability to reason and to make choices; but those choices are dictated by a power bigger than we. How can we understand what this power is, and how can we learn to control it? We live in zones of love. Jesus said we are to love the Lord God with all our heart, and then love our neighbor as ourselves, in that order. These are the great commandments! If we do these two effectively, all will be well! How can obeying these two commands fix all our problems with man and God? I believe as you read this book you will see how God teaches us about five love levels that are the most powerful sources of influence in our lives, dictating our every move!Level one - self loveLevel two - family loveLevel three - love of missionsLevel four - love for our enemiesLevel five - love for GodJohn 14:23 "...If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him and make our abode with him."John 21:15 "...Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me, more than these?"What does it all mean? How does this translate to life?The answer to man's problems is one basic truth: love God at level five and everything else will fall into place. All through the word of God we see examples of these levels, and how our dwelling in one or another of these love zones (or levels) dictates our every action.May this material give you answers to life's questions! Remember, love is the motivator of every aspect of life!

I am an award-winning artist and my works hang in private residences, community hospitals, businesses, and restaurants across the US and also abroad. I live in Pierre, South Dakota. Since 2008 I have owned Sharon Welch Gallery and Studio where I paint and teach classes. My theory is have fun, remove the fear of failure, experiment and let the child inside of you play.Very often my work begins with a heavily textured, boldly painted surface. My next step is to work within designprinciples, adding color, texture, pattern and line allowing the canvas to speak to me. The result is that my paintings are often eclectic, covering a wide range of subjects but cohesive because of color, bold marks, and movement.
