PANCAKE by Robert E. Cartmell Chris Pancake loves the Lord and loves baseball. He is the best high school pitcher in his district, perhaps even in the state. A major league scout pursues him and informs him that the Pirates intend to draft him second overall, but Chris has other plans. Then, he accomplishes a feat that has rarely been seen before from a high school pitcher. Still coping with the loss of his mother, he has a near perfect relationship with his father, Charles. Conversely, his faith and his relationships with his best friends are put to the test. On the cusp of turning 30 years old, Chris looks back and reflects on two tragic events that shaped his character as an adult. Pancake is a tale of faith and forgiveness, tragedy and triumph, and lives transformed. Throughout his young life, Chris retains an unwavering commitment to his faith despite societal pressures and personal struggles that threaten to pull him away. His is an amazing journey of sports, family, and the love of God. Robert E. Cartmell is a lover of baseball and the Bible. He is a veteran of the United States Army and has an associate’s degree from Blue Ridge Community College.

The Truth About Your Healing: Anyone Can Be Healed of Any Disease by Adelle Penn-Brown, D. Min. If you are fed up and exhausted of being sick, this is your book. When medical science says it’s a chronic disease, you don’t have to live stuck in that dimension. There’s healing for every disease and every sickness. This book tells you why anyone can be healed of any disease and how you can be healed of any disease. Adelle was born and raised on the island of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. In her early teens she made Jesus Lord of her life and had her first missionary trip to the island of Anguilla shortly thereafter. Her salvation dramatically changed her life. She went from an extrovert to an introvert because of her lack of understanding that the new birth was indeed truly a new birth. She had several supernatural experiences. Her first missionary trip opened her eyes to ministry. She completed her bachelor’s degree in three years from Creighton University in Social Work so she could use the finances designated for her fourth year to attend Rhema Bible Training Center in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. In 1982 she graduated from Rhema. In 1983 she returned to St. Thomas and was instrumental in the establishment of VI Christian Ministries. In 2005 she received her Doctorate of Divinity in Conflict Management from Trinity Theological Seminary which was endorsed by the University of Liverpool, England. She’s authored several books, one of which is “The Truth About Your Healing (Anyone Can Be Healed of Any Disease).” Adelle pastored over 30 years and has traveled and ministered in several countries including Australia, Belgium, Kenya, China, Hong Kong, Czech Republic, Croatia, Sarajevo, Taiwan. This new season is a compilation of everything over the past 40 years for the purpose of building, engaging and strengthening Christian communities and leaders, as was God’s original plan. This is being accomplished through writing, short term missions and ministry of the Word. https://www.amazon.com/Truth-About-Your-Healing-Disease-ebook/dp/B0BVNPC2R1/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=%22The+Truth+About+Your+Healing+Anyone+Can+Be+Healed+of+Any+Disease%22&qid=1693485965&s=books&sr=1-1 https://www.amazon.com/63-Days-Your-Healing-Miracle-ebook/dp/B0BVNZ18HT/ref=sr_1_1?crid=SR0WJKN01FSO&keywords=63+Days+%2B%2F-+to+Your+Healing+and+Mira https://covenantbooks.com/books/?book=the-truth-about-your-healing https://covenantbooks.com/books/?book=63-days-plusminus-your-healing-and-miracle www.AdelleBrown.org info@adellebrown.org http://www.KingPagesPress.com http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/9723kpp1.mp3

What is Eternal Salvation?: A Big Lie or Simple Truth? by Joe Clemons What is Eternal Salvation? A Big Lie or Simple Truth? is a Christian theology book designed to help its readers check their spiritual intelligence quotient. Joe Clemons believes that a person’s intelligence quotient may be suitable for making a living. It is one’s S.I.Q. that makes a living and dying a good experience. The book has six Bible-based questions that will make readers think and reflect as they try to answer them. It will help them know where they stand regarding their S.I.Q. The book also details what makes eternal salvation the most crucial concept people should know and understand. Author Joe Clemons wrote his book because of the problems he experienced. He wants to help others have a clearer understanding of why eternal salvation is real. According to Joe, until one understands salvation and what makes it infinite, the Good News of the Gospel will never make good sense. Joe wants to make others smile because of the joy and love that comes from Jesus. Joe Clemons became a Christian in 1983, and it was the best decision he has made for dying and for living. Joe has a caring, loving family—his wife of 38 years and two sons and a daughter. Because he was a victim of dumb doctrine and bad theology, He wrote the books: An Open Letter to the Human Race, The Solutions to Life’s Greatest Problems, and What is Eternal Salvation: A Big Lie or A Simple Truth? https://www.amazon.com/What-Eternal-Salvation-Simple-Truth/dp/1645315754/ http://www.ReadersMagnet.com http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/9723jcrm1.mp3

From Goo to God: A Science-Based Defense of Creationism vs. Evolution by Bruce R. Matson Author Bruce R. Matson explores and explains the idea of creationism as a natural and accurate means of describing how life came to be in the vast cosmos. The concept of creationism is examined and explained by author Bruce R. Matson as a rational and accurate way to explain how life came to be in the enormous cosmos. He attempts to demonstrate this view by using science, a methodology commonly employed by atheists, to demonstrate that the clever designs of every creature must have been created or molded by some higher power and that we are all excellent works of the Lord God. According to Bruce, almost every media mode, including children's textbooks, considered evolution an unquestioned fact. He explains that if anyone dares to speak against it or even mentions "creation" as an option, they will be thrown to the lions of public disdain, similar to what happened in the Colosseum of Ancient Rome. Bruce successfully advances his creationist viewpoint while refuting the theory of Darwinian evolution. Bruce Matson helped his readers understand the Lord God's omniscience by fusing scientific ideas with religious doctrines. The science-based information in this book rips evolutionary theory to shreds and exposes it for its useless propaganda. It inspires readers that it's time to stop teaching evolution propaganda to Christian children in schools. Bruce Matson is an educator of 30 years who has taught kindergarten through 8th grade. He has also been a principal, athletic director, bus driver, and football, basketball, and track coach. Most importantly, Bruce is a survivor of stage four non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. After 18 rounds of chemo and a month of radiation, Bruce was humbled to the core of his existence. Seeing his mortality, he made it his mission to let people know they are so much more than fate, by-products of evolution. So Bruce wrote a book using science-based facts to expose evolution's faulty foundations and reveal how intelligent design throughout the universe leads us to a Creator. https://www.amazon.com/Goo-God-Science-Based-Creationism-Evolution/dp/1640883215 https://brucermatson.com/ http://www.ReadersMagnet.com http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/83123bmrm.mp3

Gorky, Russia; First man in: Memoirs from being the first American allowed inside Russia's closed exile city by Donn G. Ziebell, Ph.D. ​Russians needed internal visas to travel outside their place of residence. It was rare for foreigners to get such travel permission. After 30 years of corporate employment the author made an improbable career change. His new boss and two VP’s were black-listed by the KGB and could not enter Russia. The author was asked to write a business seminar proposal for Russia to see if he could open a door and get in. One of the three Russians who received the proposal got approval nine months later by Moscow’s Ministry of Education and the KGB . Surprisingly the seminars were designated to be held in Gorky, an exile city for political prisoners and closed to foreigners.The Russian Embassy in Washington D.C. and the officials in Moscow would not issue a travel visa to Gorky. So the author took the chance to be driven 250 miles to Gorky without a visa. The Russians in the city had never seen an American before. The seminar was attended by 60 top industrial personnel, including some suspected to be KGB. The author describes seminar incidents which reveal the thinking and unexpected responses by the Russians. He was taken to meet with many different people and visited many sites during his stay. The memoir is filled with events, pictures and entertaining cross-cultural experiences. From his time inside Russia, readers follow the many twists, turns and surprises the author encountered which entertain and hold reader’s attention. Gorky was not opened to foreigners until the year after all these events took place. About the Author: Donn Ziebell's pursuit in doctoral studies with The Union Institute University, Cincinnati, Ohio, intersected simultaneously with his receiving of the approvals from Moscow's Russian Ministry of Education and the KGB to present business seminars in Russia. Delivering his first in a series of lectures in August 1990, the seminar program proceeded with his sending a number of US instructors with specific disciplines into Russia to lecture on their business areas of expertise. Their trip reports provided original research for writing a cross-cultural experiential doctoral dissertation to receive his Ph.D. degree. Previously, his B.S in Metallurgical Engineering from the U. of Missouri, Rolla, and a MBA degree With Distinction from the U. of New Haven, West Haven, Connecticut, expedited his earlier career in manufacturing and consulting roles within Fortune 500 Corporations for thirty years, including five years in his own manufacturing consulting firm, Ziebell Associates, Inc. https://www.amazon.com/Gorky-Russia-First-man-American/dp/0989474534/ref=sr_1_1?crid=YUXMOGPHW0MD&keywords=Gorky%2C+Russia%3B+First+Man+in%3A+Memoirs+from+Being+the+First+American+Allowed+Inside+Russia%E2%80%99s+Closed+Exile+City&qid=1692650972&sprefix=%2C http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/82423dzec.mp3

Eric Gribble has a broad interest in economics, horticulture, and astronomy. He has owned and operated small horticultural businesses in New Zealand and Australia and taken an interest in Politics. He served as an electorate secretary for a small political party in New Zealand. He has diversified life experiences in New Zealand and Australia. Due to tragic personal loss during his life he has become very aware that we all have a relatively short existence. The Question we all must ask is “what is the purpose of it all”. Eric’s belief is that we all contribute is a very small way to the steady advancement of humanity, that is our legacy. That legacy becomes less obvious if society does not appear to be advancing. This is why he anticipates that his book demonstrates to people that there is a future, that the current crisis that humanity is going through is totally solvable. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/individual-empowerment-eric-gribble/1143812140 http://www.HistoriaAdvertising.com http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/82423eggwm.mp3
