For example, in the Lewis and Clark Expedition, they went through the northern states. The only way they could have survived was with the help of the Native Americans there.

Dalton wants to inspire a love for history and family heritage. A few months before launching this endeavor, she heard a historian on CBS Early Show encouraging people share their family histories with their children, as it will have great relevance to future generations.

"God constantly speaks to us in some way or form. Sometimes to invite us; sometimes to comfort us; other times to encourage us, or on occasions to beseech us; but never to condemn us. I 'met' Diane Ranker Riesen during August 2015 during what was called (where I was employed at the time) the Nigerian 'rainy season.' Not in person, but through the magic of her words. After reading a number of her poems that she shared on Facebook I realized that this lady was someone special and that God uses her in a special way as an instrument of hope and love. Diane, even though she had published three books, was not yet widely known or recognized for the quality of her work as she most definitely deserves to be. I felt, and I told her, that her work deserves to be read and appreciated by millions. In this new collection of 400 poems, she again gives us a glimpse at the massive beauty that God has invested inside her heart. My wish is that God would bless many through her words and that she will continue to comfort, inspire, and encourage us with her beautiful poems for many years to come." -Coenraad Marneweck"Diane's poetry moves me, and I, too, feel FAITH, HOPE, PEACE, and PRAISE for our Heavenly Father. My soul sings when I read Diane's very deep and amazing words. Her poetry is like a 'sermon' that God has written, through Diane, who seems to have a direct line to His Power of Love for His children." -Leah PallarisAbout the Author"No one can tell me how to grieve…no one knows how I loved them." -Diane Ranker RiesenDiane Ranker Riesen lives in Tiffin, Ohio, with her husband, Mark, of forty years. They have three children: Luke Andrew, Brent Christopher, and Pamela Grace, along with their spouses, and three grandsons: Braden, Jace, and Axl! Diane has written poetry for as long as she can remember and has used it to help express her spirituality, faith, and all the emotions that we experience in life. This is her fourth book.

They explore the planet and discover that the planet is a drop-off place for mental patients, misfits, and lifers from planetarium prisons.

Books are written. Sometimes people write the book; other times, something comes through the person. The question becomes, "what comes through?" Many writers, artists, musicians have recognized this distinction, and most have been at a loss to describe it, although they know and sense the "something." Perhaps in the reading, or the listening, we also connect to the "something," and in the connection, there is a shift in mood, awareness, and state of being. David MacDonald trusts that, in the reading of The Meeting Place, readers will connect with the "something" and that each time readers embrace it, they will leave with something more of themselves.About the AuthorDavid MacDonald was born in Scotland in 1950. A co-founder of Scotland's first organic restaurant in 1970, he moved to Lake Tahoe in 1973. After his first experience with Rolfing, he has devoted himself to the healing arts and sciences. Exploration of consciousness is a lifelong passion of his. MacDonald maintains a private Rolfing practice in Reno, Nevada, and also offers Attunement meditations. He has been married to Kathleen for thirty-seven years, and they have a twenty-seven-year-old son, Ossian, who works in the family healing center.www.renotahoerolfing.com

The minefield that is public school administration is littered with the bleached bones of both new and established principals who could not successfully traverse the period between their first day as a principal to their retirement party. During that time, you will be a high-wire aerialist, traversing the wire from the beginning of your career, as you step off the platform and onto the wire-high above the ground, until you step off the wire at the other end and onto the platform that is retirement. As you place one foot in front of another you are, in most cases and in most situations, alone. As you look at the long, thin strand of wire ahead of you, is that grease you see and who the hell put that there? Knowing where the high-wire is greased will allow you to successfully grow old on the high-wire. Success can simply mean making it to retirement. However, success can also mean (and should mean) facilitating the creation of a school that fully supports student learning and teacher growth. You choose. It is your career; it is your high-wire.

Emilia Casillas has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. She believes faith is an intangible muscle that can be developed to become a more stable and healthier soul. But her spiritual life was not always so grounded. It all started at the early age of five. She held on to a shameful secret deep in herself for many years. She swore to herself that she would take it to the grave, where no living soul could ever find out. As Casillas struggled to find freedom from her past, due to the abuse she experienced, her battles with feelings of entrapment, her fears, and social anxiety got out of control. Such feelings of entrapment lead Emilia to the arms of Jesus Christ, her savior. On this path her faith began to soar higher than ever before. The sudden grace of her heavenly father began to manifest in her life. God's hand was at work day and night, healing the broken pieces from her mind, heart, and emotions that no self-help book or counselor could ever do. Through the years, Emilia's relationship with her omnipresent best friend, Jesus, has become a daily, tangible force in her life. There is a power in prayer. Jesus stated all you need is faith the size of one mustard seed. She likes to say, "You only need one mustard seed to make a whole lot of mustard." Spending time in God's word is never time wasted. Every trial leads to a testimony. In the Bible, the book of Romans 12:2, it says, "Do not be conformed to the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." The life struggle is challenging, but so much more is your faith, because "Jesus restores stronger than your past."About the AuthorAuthor Emilia Casillas attends the Cause Church in Brea, California, hosted by Pastors Bob and Sherry Reeves.
