Story telling has been a means since the beginning of time to relate the history, humor and happy times of life. It may contain a gory tale of battle, a glorious happening in one personal life, a grand sharing of the way it use to be, a goodnight story for restful sleep or maybe great events to be remembered as history unfolds in time from generation to generation. Story telling has always brought fancies and fact to life. Many stories portray deep truths of life. Some are simply fairy tales. However, you will always catch the attention of someone when you speak "Once upon a time" or as we say in the Deep South, "You ain't gonna believe this." Jesus spoke in parables (story-telling with spiritual motive). He shared forty parables during His ministry on earth as recorded in the New Testament. Each was dynamic and directed to emphasis a great nugget of truth in living the Christian life. I have collected, over the years of my ministry, many short stories that meant so much to me. I have shared marvelous truths applicable to daily living. I have written little stories that revealed spiritual truths. Many of these short stories I formed into "parables." I have preached some of these "modern day parables" as sermons to my church congregations. Therefore, I pray that you will be blessed and benefited by each one shared in this first edition of "Once Upon a Time". I hope a thought will grab your attention for brief moments from time to time as you scan through this book and allow the stories to seal within you the spiritual point or purpose of each little story. You will laugh at you read some. You may cry as you read others. You may shake your head in belief or unbelief that we have so many objects of life that reveal divine truth to us. It is amazing how the Holy Spirit reveals great nuggets of truth from grains of earthly things. So, get comfortable, confine yourself from distractions and consecrate as you read each story.
The 16th Century was an intriguing time in which large changes occurred in Western Europe. Martin Luther published his religious theses, principally against church indulgences, and the Roman Catholic Church lost a large part of its membership to what became the protestant Lutheran/Calvinist sect. Nations were divided and wars took place over the separation. Even secular culture changed. Printing had been invented so that people could read the opinions of others -- a very dangerous concept. Far away lands had been explored by enquiring sailors and in the east the Spice Islands were in full swing while the Americas had been discovered and even populated. Printing and travel, both opened people's minds to the wider world and to its variety. Trade expanded across the globe. What had been a trickle of goods from China to Europe through Venice became a flood of new goods brought under Portuguese and Dutch flags through Lisbon, Amsterdam and Antwerp. No longer were people confined to their homes and towns by servitude. Moreover, if they could not afford to travel at least they could dream of other worlds through the talk and tales of travellers. And the tastes of other lands came to their own markets: potatoes and tomatoes had just been introduced. This story explores the possible adventures of one young man, Samuel, poised on the edge of this change, who sought something different. He is a composite of people of his age. He meets people of all types, some good, some bad and some downright evil. The story is placed in the middle-to-late 16th Century and complies mostly with historical fact. Some small liberties are taken with dates and ages in order for the tale to include most of the important changes to people's lives in that century, so this is not a historical reference. It is intended to be an enjoyable tale, historical fiction, which could lead the reader to investigate the 16th Century and find that it is vastly more intriguing than even this story shows.
The term "partnership" means "the cooperation of two or more in a venture or challenge." "It is a union of two in a relationship in which each party has an obligation to the satisfaction and success of each other yet maintains a certain individual independence." Such partnerships exist in business and brotherly companionship, marriage and ministry, law enforcement agencies and laboring, and in government. However, it should also exist between the Holy Trinity and Humanity. As you can see by the passage of Scripture (Philippians 2:13) written on the previous page, man was created by God to work together in fulfilling His plan for Planet Earth and the people thereof. The Heavenly Father, The Humbled Son of God and the Holy Spirit designed a plan in which they would work within humanity to create a life style that would be pure, positive and profitable; as well, as inherit a promise of eternal life. The Apostle Paul wrote in both of the recorded letters to the church of Corinth that "we are laborers together with God." (Check out 1 Corinthians 3:9 and 2 Corinthians 6:1). The Apostle also declared that we would achieve our expected goal only as we unite with the Spirit of God while walking and working in this life. He declared that we must yield our self and become yoked with God (that is, enter into a partnership) in order to possess the power to overcome the obstacles and take advantage of the opportunities to become what was originally planned for our life. Listen to his comments found in God's Word. "I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency]" (Philippians 4:13 AMP). "We are made more than conquerors through Him that loved us" (Romans 8:37). "I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me" (Galatians 2:20). Each of these verses produces comfort, courage and confidence in a genuine partnership. Let us accept the challenge to unite with God and allow Him to work within our fleshly nature to become

This is the autobiography of John Graham ... a nuclear scientist, a world traveler, a multi-marathon runner, a writer with over twenty books, and an art lover, and, more than all of these, a family man who has been blessed with two families, forty years apart. This part of John's life takes place during a period (1933 - 2009) when the world was changing: the status of women took a step forward; the electronic world took over our lives; publication and communication changed; war moved from set battlefield enemies to terrorists; global warming became a rallying cry by activists for all manner of purposes; and more. 5 days after John was born, Adolf Hitler came to power as Chancellor of the Third Reich, while, as the book is published, Barrack Obama completes his first 100-days as American President. The world has changed. It is no wonder that John's autobiography encompasses strong opinions and makes no apology for strong likes and dislikes.

This is an adventure story set in the People's Republic of China in the early eighties before the nation was opened to the Western world. An engineer, Toby, from Hong Kong follows his mentally disturbed brother who has entered China. He fears the worst: illegal entry without a passport to be sure but perhaps also an act against China itself. Toby's colleague, Donna, his lover, helps in his quest while a mysterious college student, Kathy, invades the scene. The path leads deep into China. The story is a vivid picture of what the country and its people were like in the seventies: full of intrigue under a totalitarian regime. Guangzhou, Guilin, the Yangtze, and Chongking lead to Beijing and a triple-whammy ending.

However, most of us do not pretend to be divine with infallible judgements about others. Their tales are exciting, sometimes unbelievable even and always worth revealing.
