New Release from Dr. Wanda Ann Rogers
Someone may be eager to get a better understanding of God; this book will help you along the way. You would think that a "night out with Yahweh" would be all about good. That is not the fact. Although we know all things work together for the good of those who love him, there are some trials and tribulations that we must go through to develop in the different stages until we reach all that good. We will discuss in this book the three stages of maturing in Christ:
1. Baby stage
2. Young-adult stage
3. Adult stage
God's promises are true, but as you read this book, you will understand things you might not have understood or heard before. We must accomplish tremendous oppositions along the way to our growth and development in becoming God's disciple, servant, teacher, and friend.
My Ultimate Hope - New Release

Don't let anything-especially the negative influence of others-destroy your dreams.

This is a story of how one young soldier recalls the events of war. He remembers the men he served with who had such a great impact on his life during and after war. His love and respect for the leaders who became his mentors and role models, SSG Ben Garza and 1SG Bill Perry, are evident in his story. These are the people he regards as "true heroes." He recalls the sheer terror, pain, grief, and physical hardships that come with combat in a foreign country. This is a story of duty, honor, country, patriotism, love of one's fellow man, and camaraderie. It demonstrates how a soldier fights for his country but more so how he fights for the lives of the men he serves beside. Darkness Bravo: A Soldier Remembers follows the events of the First Infantry Division (the Big Red One) during the author's two tours in Vietnam 1966-1967 and 1968-1969. Battles he participated in and remembers include Operation El Paso, Operation Attleboro, Operation Charleston, Operation Cedar Falls, Operation Junction City, and Operation Manhattan.

New Release from Paul D Forgay
I am not great because I follow a script; I am great because I am the script.
-Paul D. Forgay
Sometimes we read books about how to be like someone else. This book doesn't mirror that, it is about having the prowess to be you and not what others want you to be, it's about Turning Pain Into Triumph and Adversity Into Opportunity. It has always been a dream of mine to write a book-and not just any book, but a book that would impact others' lives in a hopeful, inspirational, purposeful way. I envisioned a book of substance and meaning that would truly matter to people, filled with my own inspirational life experiences. I know if I can Turn Pain Into Triumph and Adversity Into Opportunity, you can too.

My Mommy Says God Loves Me - New Release
Have you ever felt like everyone seems to know God better than you or that their day-to-day is somehow more Christ-centered than yours? Discovering how God can manifest His love in our daily lives is no easy feat. Early childhood provides a great opportunity to instill the idea that we can find God in everyday activities as long as we look in the right places. Children see God through their family and friends and have the opportunity to see their loved one's experience a personal and special relationship with God. This book shows firsthand that baseball, hot dogs, and lots of glitter can all be unexpected examples of God's love for us.

Co-authors Lloyd W Fig Newton and B J Harvey Hill recently did a local interview!
Living the Dream tells the story of an African-American boy who had dreams of serving in the United States military, wearing the uniform, and demonstrating that he could be more than what his childhood circumstances and others predicted he would be. Not only did Newton break the bonds of segregation and disenfranchisement, but he also went on to accomplish much more than he could ever have imagined during his early life. Strong parents and education opened doors for him to dream and dream big. He made many of his dreams a reality along the way. He became a fighter pilot in the US Air Force and was the first African-American pilot to fly with the US Air Force Demonstration Team, "The Thunderbirds." Newton retired from the Air Force in 2000 as a four-star General.
