The Bible has always been the perfect example of a completed story. However, our history books in the United States have always been incomplete for the African Americans. Why? Because in the beginning days of Negroes (as they were called in those days), they were considered nothing but property. They had no history or voice, therefore were not felt to be important by the writers of history. So the Afro-American history was omitted and passed over.
This book explores the omitted African American history through a fictional character, the Unknown Voice. Our journey unveils spectacular creations, amazing acts, outstanding accomplishments, disturbing acts, catastrophic events, and the advancement of a culture. We will give an ear to the unknown voice destined to be heard.
Have you, at any point, seen your shadow? That is it--just observed. 23:4 Spiritual Guides through Life takes you on an excursion through the "valleys of shadows of death"; however, prepare to have your mind blown. You are going to come out more grounded than when you went in. We have perused Psalm 23; however, it is an eye-opener as you get more seasoned and you see the torment and battles of life. Just getting by can be a struggle yet our God is greater than our issues.

Sam and Violet thought they were living the good life in a great home. But during a routine trip to the park, things turned ominous. Sam and Violet had lots to worry about, and their faith was truly tested. They will need to use all their skills and rely on God to see them through.
Jesus clarified the requirements of every believer. He simply said, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me" (Matt. 16:24). Sounds simple enough...until you begin to break it down.
In today's affluent society, most are not accustomed to denying themselves anything, even if they don't have the means to pay for it. Personal responsibility is at an all-time low. When tragedy strikes, we look for someone or something to blame. Certainly not my fault.
Jesus requires us to take up a cross. Well, that's easy enough...gold, silver, or platinum? But don't forget the cross is not jewelry to be worn; on the contrary, it is an instrument of death. Our death.
Have an addiction that you are struggling with? Perhaps you have concluded that God made you to live as a homosexual. God's fault there. And that alcohol or drug addiction, well, it's a disease. Not my fault there either.
So open the pages and take a look. Dare you. The hard truth for all is that the Bible, God's Word, is a mirror. You and I must see ourselves, in light of His Scriptures, as He sees us. But read on. The Bible contains all the power and tools you and I need to obey Jesus' command. So take up your cross and follow Him!
God. Immeasurable is His love. Countless are His benefits. Perfect is His care.
This book is a personal remembrance and celebration of it all.
"Oh, thank God - he's so good! His love never runs out. All of you set free by God, tell the world!"
Psalm 107: 1 The Message
Remember. Tell the world!

The trial of the Nazi war criminals, which took place in Nuremberg, Germany, from November 1945 through October 1946 is perhaps the quintessential story of good versus evil. These twenty-two men authored some of the most shameful, depraved acts in the annals of human history; but now, shorn of their brief authority, they would be given something that they never afforded millions of their victims-a fair trial.

When humanity questions the purpose of existence, they often turn to science or religion for answers. Unfortunately, both science and religion contain inconsistencies. These inconsistencies touch the human spirit in the most profound ways, resulting in an uneasiness about life.
"Do I really have a purpose?"
Seeking to address the spiritual unease, the history of humanity documents the development and pursuit of religion with a concept of a divine creator with a plan for humanity. However, in more recent history with an increasing emphasis on scientific knowledge, the concept of a divine creator is increasingly discounted as inconsistent with the material world revealed by scientific discovery. Via the scientific method, humanity is turning its focus to the material world, creating new gods of science and the purveyors of scientific knowledge.
But rather than provide definitive answers, as science continues to advance, the theories of creation point increasingly to inconclusive and inconsistent results. These shortcomings of science are often veiled in the expression "Someday, we will know," but many in the scientific community are beginning to question that hope. With science and religion each plagued with inconsistency, perhaps appropriately integrating them will lead us to the real answers we seek!
The Model of Everything-A Divine Universe relies on both scientific and biblical knowledge to fully integrate science and religion in a consistent, complementary, and interdependent fashion. This confluence and synergy of knowledge reveal a comprehensive model that accounts for the totality of human existence-the physical and spiritual. The reader, via personal and straightforward experiments, participates in developing the model. Biblical knowledge is the pointer for a unique application of scientific knowledge. Then, the incredible and sometimes bizarre world of science reveals how God teaches us about our existence and spirituality.
The integration of scientific and biblical knowledge results in several new mental constructs, providing an account for the totality of creation-the material and immaterial-and a genuine hope and understanding of personal existence. The model presents some eye-popping implications and applications as well as predictions on future scientific progress and outcomes. Each reader is invited and encouraged to become a scientist; a scientist prepared to chart a life-changing personal discovery.

The mountains are calling and I must go.
-John Muir
Another in his series of exciting mountaineering stories, senior citizen adventure author Walter Glover continues his quest to climb the world's famed Seven Summit mountains. After reaching Mount Everest base camp, the summits of Kilimanjaro, and the highest peaks in Russia and Australia, the popular series turns to South America. Mount Aconcagua is the highest mountain in the southern hemisphere, its peak reaching 22,000 feet. The expedition is marked by camaraderie and peril. Walter then turns his climbing boots homeward to Mount Rainier to prepare for the Seven's final two peaks. A fall and the discovery of three aneurysms, one which required open-heart surgery, sidelined him-temporarily.
A retired hospital chaplain, reviewers frequently remark that the centerpieces of Walter's books are spirituality and inspiration. Walter's altruistic aim was to raise money with his climbs for children's wellness initiatives-$140,000 to date.
Now more than going high, he goes long trekking the pilgrimage across Spain the Way of St. James, El Camino, and across England. In February 2019, he and friend Nancy Conner and his cousin Pilar French trekked, kayaked, and bicycled across South American Patagonia near Cape Horn.
Book III contains vivid accounts of tumultuous weather, making friends, and unexpected challenges. Walter writes with the warmth of a real person and includes his spiritual journey as well as the physical challenges of high-altitude mountaineering at age 64. His stories are told with a healthy dose of self-deprecating humor as well as with prayers and psalms.
