Politics has always been a blood sport. It seems that over the past few decades this blood has spilled over into our society. People are now routinely being murdered at "peaceful" political protests, while rabid partisanship has replaced civil debate. This book is a discussion of how hate is now the only game in town. It clearly reveals how powerful political groups are using hate to politicize all aspects of society, including the delivery of basic public services. Various real life examples are presented to support this assertion and reveal the depth of this problem. Also solutions are proposed to improve outcomes for citizens for all communities, particularly those who are most vulnerable.

Many of today''s historical stories offer total fiction or cold facts of history. When a Sparrow Falls is a powerful story of faith lost and faith restored, fused with reality and drama surrounding actual events. The novel is seen through the eyes of David Spence, a seminary student who lost his faith and dropped out of divinity school after the loss of his mother. He would later serve in the civil war under the command of the legendary General Stonewall Jackson. Spence encounters a moment of truth in the heat of battle. Rather than a bland spew of facts or an unrealistic gush of fiction, When a Sparrow Falls is a reality check for all of us when facing a crisis of faith in God.

Father Act In The Hour is a God ordained book which illustrates the mind and intent of Abba Father for His children concerning the Christian Faith. The author goes to the roots to explain the meaning of faith and how to unleash the faith that has been dormant in the lives of Christians. The purpose and the aim of this book is to edify both believers and non-believers on the power which we possess and the benefits of faith in our lives. Faith is many times over emphasized and misunderstood which cause us as humans to see faith as this big word when in-fact each and everyone of us received a portion of faith. This book is designed to take the reader from faith to faith through the application of the word of God.

Las Vegas—the name evokes images of divorce and dice, gangsters and glitz. But beneath it all is a sordid history that is much more insidious and far-reaching than ever imagined. The Money and the Power is the most comprehensive look yet at Las Vegas and its breadth of influence.
