A Grandfather's Life
 Kindle Book $10.00 
 Paperback 

A grandfather shares stories for his grandchildren about his life growing up, going off to college, getting married and moving a lot.

 As a grandfather with seven grandchhildren and one great-grandchild,  the author wonders what wisdon  he can impart to them that will make any difference in their lives. Does he have anythin for then? Even if he does, do they care to take notice? He gives them stories to ponder.
At The Table
 Paperback 

For those who give communion meditations, this book is an attempt to focus completely upon our Lord's role in our redemption. Reverent remembering it the goal.

These short meditations focus one's attention on Jesus Christ and what He accomplished by being crucified on a cross. Because of His resurrection, Christians rejoice and remember the Lord in a ceremony called "The Lord's Supper" by eating and drinking some elements of no consequence that are anything but inconsequential.    
Driving the Devil Crazy
 Paperback 

"He drives me crazy" is a phrase we use many times about people who get under our skin. A good way to get even is to let God do the "getting." Here are 365 ways, a whole year's worth, to drive the devil crazy by exposing his lies to God's truths.

 Everyone has a story. At some stage in that story there is a crisis of eternal consequence. It is at that point that the story pauses, reflects, and comes to a decision of what to do, where to turn, and consider the cost - life or death - good or evil - God or Satan. Of course one doesn't usually think in those terms, but all the same, those are the choices. Here is a book to help the individual who has chosen life, chosen what is good, and has chosen God's truth over Satan's lies. It's enough to drive the devil crazy!  
Equipping the Pilgrim
 Paperback 

I have put together various thoughts, ideas, concepts, yes, and some opinions that have helped me on my pilgrimage. Some are my own, some are others whom I endeavor to give proper credit. There is an old hymn that says, “This world is not my home, I'm just a'passing through.”i It is a sentiment that we really don't believe, at least believe enough that we plan adequately for THE TRIP. Hopefully, as you read through the following thoughts and convictions, you will ponder the meaning of life, where it is headed, and hopefully find your way. I encourage you to wonder about the magnificence of God in your wanderings. Ponder, meditate, imagine what a trip we are on – especially knowing we are not in it alone!

The most important journey that a person takes will always lead to a fork in the road (that's usually just up ahead). If he or she is not well equipped with the proper stuff to decide which way to go, it could be an unfortunate choice if the wrong way is chosen. A pilgrim would be wise to check his baggage.    
It's a God Thing!
 Paperback 

A message for believers in Jesus Christ: you've been given the right to be in on a God-thing! You have an inheritance that is unlimited. Do you want it?

 When God appeard to Moses on the mountain, He gave him, among other things, instructions on how people were to live. What we realize in those statutes is that they gave punishments for not following them. When Jesus came to this earth (representing the very nature of God), His mission was to show people that they could find freedom from punishment by taking the punishment for us. Then, then! He would give us His Holy Spirit to change us from a life of spiritual poverty to a life of spiritual wealth - our inheritance from His Father! Believers really can have a mountain-top experience
My Christmas Letters
 Paperback 

These are annual Christmas letters that have been written to family and friends from 1981 through 2010 from Indianapolis, Indiana. In some ways they are traditional. In other ways they are unusual.

 This book is a collection of letters that were sent to family and friends every Christmas Season for the past 29 years (1981 - 2010). This was before a computer was used (that saved everything). Letters were type written and duplicated on a spirit duplicator or later photo copied, and even in the early years typed on a stencil and "run-off" on an old A. B. Dick mimeograph machine (but those letters have been lost). Please don't bring back the old days!  
My Father, My Brother & Me
 Paperback 

My father was addicted to alcohol; my brother to drugs; and me, to porn. In ancient Greece, a trilogy was a series of 3 tragedies in a play. It wasn't until the conclusion that you knew how bad (or good) the ending would be. It is the same in real life. Beyond the epilogue is eternity, and that can be awesome (or awful!).

These combined stories give a glimpse of what it is to grow up in a very normal dysfunctional family. What you come to nervously realize only later in life is that people, especially the family kind, take on an inquisitorial role as you endeavor to figure out your own life. It is in the figuring that you begin to reckon what was normal, or at least representative of the norm, that standards become either acceptable or unacceptable later in life. And, that is where the "fun" begins.      
My Prayer Book
 Paperback 

My Prayer Book is an assortment of articles and "handouts" that have been used in prayer ministries in various churches. It speaks to the heart of prayer and answers the question: What is prayer?

 This is a collection of many thoughts on prayer by a number of people - people who have had a close relationship of none other than the God of this universe!  
Why I Took a Vow
 Paperback 

Essays on various subjects where a vow is necessary.

 A vow is a promise committing one to a prescribed role or course of action. Consider your vows. They can have consequences of eternal significance!
