Free at Last in the Promised Land goes into detail as how and why Moses, a common person, and the people of Israel left the slavery of Egypt to enter the promised land. Moses, the leader of the people of Israel, with great sacrifice and with God's help, forced Egypt's Pharaoh to let the people of Israel go, which put them on their way to the promised land. On their way to the promised land, the people of Israel committed great sins against God, and they were punished for their behaviors. Moses also disobeyed God, which caused him and his brother Aaron to not be allowed to enter the promised land. Also, along the way to the promised land, Moses and the people of Israel fought with their own distant relatives, and they were able to defeat them with God's help and with God turning them into a great nation, as promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.There may be many who don't know that there were two partings during Moses's and the people of Israel's march to the promised land: God's parting of the Red Sea and Jordan River. There were also other major partings from the beginning--God separated the waters of heavens and of the earth. Elijah and Elisha were allowed to part the Jordan River with God's help. Free at Last in the Promised Land is an essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest parts of the journey of Moses and the people of Israel's march toward the promised land.

2021 Gold MarCom Award Winner (Creative Writing/Novel) IT'S 1939 AND EUROPE IS ON THE BRINK OF WAR.Rumors have circulated for years that Lady Miriam Asquith, a distant cousin to England's King George VI, suffers from seizures where she seemingly predicts the future. But no one really knows for sure. When a kidnap attempt of Lady Miriam goes wrong in Paris, it's believed the German S.S. is behind it. Working for British intelligence, a U.S. Army officer, Captain Sam Burke, is sent to the Asquith country estate to determine Lady Miriam's abilities and, if necessary, protect her. What Sam finds is a free-spirited woman with amazing abilities dismissed by her father as a "sickness." He also discovers German operatives are still after her, and a who-done-it betrayal straight out of an Agatha Christie novel. What Miriam finds is an American with a troubled past who'll do anything to keep her out of harm's way.
