When Steve Davis became pastor of the First Baptist Church in Carrollton, Georgia in 1995, one of the first things he learned was the expectation that he was to write a weekly newsletter column. They were to be about 300 words and could be on any topic he chose. Some pastors make these columns into promo pieces about upcoming church events. But Steve decided that this would be a good opportunity to bring a smile to the faces of parishioners and bring a touch of inspiration as well. Steve had never done much writing but nonetheless undertook the weekly assignment with enthusiasm. He began to get much positive feedback, which only inspired him more. Over the years, his articles have covered topics such as Christian living, Church, Sports, Holidays, and Family. Many people in the church had encouraged him to put his articles in a book. Well, after about ten years of articles and some prodding from others, he did just that. He chose to focus, in the first book, on articles dealing with the subjects of Church and Christian Living. When searching for a book title, he came across one of his articles with the title, Steeple People, and he quickly settled on that. You will find these articles easy to read, humorous and inspiring. They will make excellent stories for preachers and teachers who need to illustrate a particular point.

California Highway Patrol Lt. Ryan Foster glanced down at the smoking gun in his hand. This certainly wasn't the way he envisioned his life turning out. Yet here he was, standing among four dead young men in a dark New York alley; men he had just lured into an ambush and murdered in cold blood. How could a highly regarded career CHP veteran turn into a cold-blooded murderer? He didn't even know their names. Men he'd never seen before tonight. He couldn't ponder the question for long, though, the sirens were getting closer, and he had to plan his next murder, in Florida. Of course, the date his life went awry was very clear; that would be May 26, 2013; the day his seventeen-year-old daughter was murdered on a remote beach near Mendocino, California. And then, a week later, when a devastating fire at the Department of Justice Crime Lab destroys all the evidence against his daughter's murderer, Ryan is forced to resort to Plan B, street justice.But when his first attempt to confront the suspect is thwarted, he is forced to attend a 'Forgiveness Retreat' put on by television personality 'Dr. Stan' Berkeley. Instead of confronting his inner demons, however, he meets another man grieving his son's murder, at the hands of a professional athlete, who was wrongfully acquitted of the crime. Together, they contrive a murder conspiracy to kill each other's loved one's murderers. But that plan is also compromised when their scheme is overheard by a third member of the retreat, a high stakes New York City Realtor whose husband was murdered by a subway gang, and who demands to be included. Reluctantly, they agree to her demand, and the conspirators begin to plan and execute a series of perfect crimes, with perfect alibis for the participants.Along the way, Dr. Stan smells a story, and reports his suspicions to the FBI. Soon a national FBI Task Force is formed, with detectives from New York and California, and Florida, to catch them before they can kill again. Can this trio of unlikely amateur assasins pull off three perfect crimes, in three different states, including three 'perfect alibis', while the FBI, California and New York Detectives, and a ratings-hungry 'TV Doctor' watch their every move?

The essays in this volume originally appeared over a period of some years in Voice magazine. All were published well before the global financial turmoil of October 2008, to which all are linked. Other essays in Voice covered a variety of topics, but those appearing here developed a common theme, a belief that representative democracy has not just outlived its usefulness, but has become a danger to the survival of humanity itself

Steve Davis was just a rookie from Plumstead, south London, learning how to play from an old book his snooker-obsessed father had given him, when an encounter with Barry Hearn changed his life forever. With his backing, Steve began touring the country in a clapped-out car as an amateur. Challenging established professionals and winning titles, supported by his loyal following the Romford Roar, it wasn t long before he progressed to the world s stage.By the eighties, Steve had helped transform a previously shady sport into a national obsession. He and a cast of legends such as Ray Reardon, Dennis Taylor and Alex Higgins, with other young guns like Jimmy White, were doing silent battle in front of huge audiences. Tens of millions of viewers would witness the nail-biting conclusions of his world championship finals; this was snooker s golden era.The man behind the boring tag has always been the sport s smartest and sharpest man. With his cool, obsessive approach, Steve rewrote the rule book and became untouchably the best player in the world and the best paid sportsman in the country. Interesting lays it all bare: what it was like to win in those pressure-cooker situations; how to cope at the top, when everyone wants you to lose; and how you deal with the moment when a man comes along who is finally better than you. This is a memoir that closely evokes the smoke-filled atmosphere of those arenas, the intrigue behind the scenes and the personal psychology and sacrifice that is required to stay at the top of such an exacting sport.
