This book is a graphic format regarding events to come forth in the latter days.These great disasters will initiate with the saints in Utah-for the lack of obedience to the commandments of God. Events are well described as to what is going to take place in the latter days, backed up with proven evidence that the Lord works with all of his children with open hands, hoping they themselves will reach out and ask, knock, seek, and find for themselves the answer Jesus Christ is more than willing to give.As we honor our covenants and commitments to the Lord, His church, theChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, we will find those talents through our obligations and opportunities to serve that will be multiplied, which will not just help us, but many others as well.We know the time of the Lord is at hand, and those that assume that they will have many more playful years to repent are simply not seeing the signs in the heavens and are not reading their scriptures. They will be sadly mistaken when these devastations take place, which is explained in this work.It will be from the destructions that take place to the saints, and all those who live within that region, that will initiate the remainder events.Pay great heed to the words of Isaiah, for Nephi himself told us that Isaiah's writings were meant for our day. That through dreams, God will still give warning and guidance as long as we seek out the Holy Ghost for the correct interpretation of those dreams and/or visions we are seeking for ourselves and our families, knowing that these revelations were meant for you personally. Understanding that your dreams and/or visions will never go against the council of our prophet and apostles.¿

Pope Nicolas V issued a Papal Bull in 1452 mandating the enslavement of Black Africans in the name of Christianity. On August 23, 1619, twenty Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia. It is noteworthy that these twenty Africans were neither Christians, nor were they slaves prior to boarding that slave ship. There is no evidence of how many Africans actually boarded that ship with them and didn't survive the trip. The facts are clear however, upon arrival in Jamestown, Virginia these twenty Africans were forced to become Christians and they were enslaved. Today, 401 years later, their descendants are still Christians and still enslaved. -The Author For years I have heard us (Afrikans/Blacks to include myself) ask "What's wrong with Black People". Ask no more for the answer has been revealed in Baba Jerry Smith's book "Christianity: The Real Deal! Read it and free your mind, soul, and spirit. -Afia Nlongo Brother Jerry Smith has done a masterful job presenting the real deal of christianity. After reading this enlightening and entertaining account of the truth discovered when one looks at christianity without the shackled blindness of an enslaved mind; the following words of the honorable Afrikan Ancestor, educator, historian and author Nana John Henrik Clarke could easily be applied to the powerfully valid words and concepts of this book. "Nearly all religion was brought to people and imposed on people by conquerors and used as the framework to control their minds." "I think the world would be better off if it had been given common sense instead of religion" -Kwaku Ndombe Nlongo Moderator of the "John Henrik Clarke Historical Society" (Afrikan history and culture study group) "The 'real deal' about Christianity is that it has been one of the main tools of oppression, especially for the Black people. In order for us to move forward, it is important to have a better understanding of the history, as well as the psychological effect on our communities in the present, and how our futures can be impacted. If you are looking for a critical analysis of this institution as well as looking to confirm any doubts about the Christian faith, then Jerry Smith's book is a good place to start." -Mandisa L. ThomasFounder/President of Black Nonbelievers, Inc. www.blacknonbelievers.orgThis book gives a different perspective of Christianity, while providing the readers with several cites to justify the writer's premise. Also, allowing the readers to come to their own conclusion on what they believe to be the "Real Deal"!-Felton Hodges

This is a collection of inspirations by a naturalist and lover of nature. They arose from the opportunity to do walks, hikes, runs, and cross country skis during which time was spent sitting alone in silence and stillness in nature. These inspirations describe both what was seen by the eyes and heard by ear and the heart at each location and each has a photo taken at the site where the inspiration occurred. This book is the result of practicing not thinking when alone in nature and instead just observing and listening. The locations are in the tallgrass prairies of the Flint Hills of Kansas and the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. This book is created in the hope that others will find inspiration for their own mind and heart in reading it and be inspired to pursue their own encounters with nature, even if through the simplicity of looking out a window. The book title comes from the author's adopted nature name, Falling Snow, and because the inspirations arrived like snow falling.
Life is a scary thing, we go through it with very little of an idea on what we should do. Sometimes we'll find our mind is out to get us, other times we'll be faced with situations outside of any rational explanation, and every so often we just have to sit through unsettling times of boredom and have to make out the beauty which lurks in the dullness. The stories in this book are reflections of these ideas and more, a journey within the depths of loneliness, the relentless horrors, and confusion which hide within the dark corners of our world, and of our fragile mind.

Peggy Hinaekian's short stories are a quirky collection of life's experiences interjected with honest yet playful sexual overtones and perceptions about love and attraction. Her observations on human behavior are spot on, as she travels the inner thought worlds of a fascinating combination of men, women and even animals. Bravo to Peggy for illuminating the human psyche from a spectrum of viewpoints from Old World European to modernistic-and a variety of ages. A wonderful tapestry of tales from the heart and soul.

Father Paul Wesley's journey through life had proven to be a turbulent one. It began with his ignoble conception and continued through a tempestuous childhood and early days as an adult, as he rebelled in a truculent manner; seeking to overcome the stigma his mother's unsavory lifestyle and the emotional misery it brought with it. Then, after causing the death of his best friend, Paul Wesley had an epiphany. His eyes were opened, and his life changed.Now, as a Catholic priest, he felt free of the emotional duress that threatened his existence. He was ready to atone for the raucous deportment of his youth through the ministry of the Church and leave his less than desirable past where it belonged ¿in the past! But, unbeknownst to him, there were challenges still to be met. Amends that needed to be made. Decisions to be rendered that would define him as not only a priest but as a man.The archdiocese was in the process of downsizing. There were a glut of churches and some had to go. The architect of this downsizing scheme was the cardinal's personal secretary, Father John Moore. He had a greedy plan in progress to fatten his family coffers. But his plan hit a snag when his next prized takeover was the Church of St. Theresa, a church that had been under the spiritual guidance of Father Ronald Coniglio; the cardinal's seminarian roommate and close friend who has fallen on harsh times emotionally and physically. It is onto this scene that Father Paul Wesley is asked to be the answer to the cardinal's guilt-ridden conscience for his negligence regarding the downward plight of an old friend. In the meantime, the cardinal's secretary has a totally different objective for Father Wesley. He is to be the designated sheep in wolf's clothing and oversee the demise of the poverty-ridden parish. What neither of the prelates in the archdiocesan hierarchy counted on was Father Wesley being his own man. He makes the decision to return to the church of his youth but not as the cardinal's answer to ease his guilty conscience or Father Moore's executioner of a ruthless plan to lull the parishioners of St. Theresa's into a false sense of security. It is Father Wesley's intention to, somehow, save the place.Once back in the old neighborhood he is forced to tackle the parishioners problems of infidelity, an unwanted pregnancy, intimidation, pedophilia, bigotry, poverty, marital discord and an attempted rape that will force him to revisit a past he wants to forget. His mettle will be tested, and his resolve challenged. Will he meet the daunting task he forced on himself? That question will be determined by the reader as materialistic matter crumbles but spirituality reigns on.
