God's story. The most amazing story that has ever been told. It began a forever ago as God surveyed the endless space. He foresaw the future which was soon to appear. With the power of his will, he spoke. Angels filled the skies. Innumerable angels, all singing praise to their Creator. Imagine the angels' surprise when they heard God's words call forth numerous amazing creations--seas and creeks; trees and plants; mountains and valleys; animals, some so tiny they could hardly be seen, others massive.Then God paused. He would now create the crown jewel of creation, the reason for which he created the world. But this time he would not use words. He would form this creature using his own hands. God gathered some dirt, worked it with his hands, shaping it carefully. And then the moment came. God lifted the lifeless creature to himself and breathed his own breath into this first ever person, Adam. God's heart was pleased.God observed his world. He saw creatures of all sizes and shapes, male and female. God then paused, realizing that he was not yet done. He put Adam into a deep sleep and removed one of his ribs. Using it, he created a woman. When Adam awoke, he was amazed. A creature so like him yet different in such interesting ways. Together they explored their new world and each other, experiencing a thrill beyond description.God's amazing world, perfect in every way. That is, until...

Walt Thrun connects Scripture together better than anyone I have read. This book on America and her future prospects is a considerate, solemn, and hopeful offering.

Keith Wiginton II, Pastor, Claremore First BaptistWalt Thrun is one of America's prophetically insightful writers. This book 'Does America Really Know God?' introduces the reader to Israel, America and the other nations of the world in prophecy. Abraham and his two sons, Ishmael and Isaac are presented as they relate to successive generations and find their relationship reflected in today's news. Mr. Thrun's book also helps to disclose how the 'Fertile Crescent' plays a significant role in today's world. This book will confirm the place of Israel, America, and other nations in prophecy.

His latest book 'Does America Really Know God' is extremely relevant to current times for America. Walt stresses that God's standard of righteousness has not changed over the ages. Then it is stressed that Israel, as God's chosen nation, disobeyed God's laws which brought on severe consequences. This is a book serious Christ-followers should read.

What Would Moses Say? is a carefully researched and crafted book. The author began with the premise that Moses's Law, in fact, much of Old Testament history, is nonbinding for today's believer. Her journey and findings brought a surprising revelation that all of God's word is useful for our spiritual growth. As she explored each of the Ten Commandments, the truth became even more clear. The moral principles that God had established as a standard for the Israelites still hold true for today. In fact, as society continues to break down with prevailing lawlessness, there has never been a better time than now to address our application of God's commandments.Could it be that a careless disregard for the obsolete law is the reason for the lukewarm state of many believers in the twenty-first century? Decreased church attendance, high divorce rates, disobedient children, loss of young adults to secular pursuits, and an absence of God's name in day-to-day conversation all characterize the problem. Could it be that good people who call themselves Christian could benefit from a deeper look at the Ten Commandments? According to the findings, the answer is yes!The evidence points to the need for a new or renewed relationship with God's appointed head of the church, Jesus Christ. There cannot be any substantial law keeping in the absence of the lawgiver. We must first love God (the first commandment) before we can love others. The worldliness of today's church has impacted Christianity as we know it. There is no other answer than to be unique and separate.This book was written for readers in all stages of their spiritual journey. It promises to be interesting, challenging, enlightening, and instructional. Use it for personal reading or a group study.
Growing up in as a young girl and transitioning into womanhood can be complicated. Satan, the Master of Disguise, known as the Deceiver, offers 24-7 young women and men wrong choices that lead to harmful and hurtful consequences. Often there is no quick fix. As they are confronted with multiple issues, making choices based on the appealing voices of Social Media, friends, and boyfriends can lead to taking dangerous risks they deeply regret. A number of teens consider their parents' advice "crazy" and "old-fashion". Insecure and unsure of what is right, many young women are looking for answers to the following questions: "Does being a Christian involve living by a bunch of rules?" "How can I connect with God?" "Will God forgive and forget the bad things I've" done? "Does God really care about me?" "Does God have a thought-out plan for my life?" "How can I feel good about my life when others don't accept me?" "What should I do when a guy is too friendly" "What are God's sexual boundaries?" "How can I avoid temptation?" "How can I satisfy my need to be loved in healthy ways?" "Is having or living with a boyfriend the answer to my loneliness?" "Does God have a soul mate designed just for me?" How will I recognize him?" Many of these questions will be answered in From A Daughter In Disguise to a Daughter in His Eyes. As you find answers to many of your soul-searching questions, may you find deep peace, love, and joy in becoming the daughter of God He created you to be.
Ten-year-old David is caught in a dilemma. His reputation precedes him, yet it's not really his true reputation at all. Who is David for real? What is he really like? Can he be trusted? Can he be a true friend? Many times people make up in their minds who you are. However, only God knows the real you. "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago" (Eph. 2:10, NLT).

This is the diary of the author's tumultuous journey from childhood to adulthood. The road she has traveled has been full of many unexpected twists, turns, detours, and cliff-hangers. Her trip itinerary has included poverty, sickness, molestation, rejection, domestic violence, betrayals, divorces, single-parenthood, being a first lady, and many other treks.I believe that you will be captivated by the author's many excursions, some self-directed and some led by others, some good and some not so good. She experienced the contrast of being on a ship like Jonah running from God and being on a ship like Paul in the will of God. But they all drove her into the arms of the blessed Savior, who took what was meant to cause her life to be permanently shipwrecked and used it to make her more resilient for the voyage ahead.I trust that you will be intrigued by how the author reveals the cycles in her life as she explains how the last became first, and the first became last, relating it to the scripture in Matthew 20:16. We all can relate with the alternating cycles in our lives of being last and then first, and first and then last. These seasons affect the just and the unjust, but they are weathered so much better with the Lord on our side. He works it all together for the good for those that love Him and are the called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28).The writer believes that the Lord led her to be transparent and to share her life experiences as a means to inspire, motivate, encourage, and challenge her readers to keep running the race that has been set before them, regardless of the obstacles they may encounter. Remember, many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord will deliver us out of them all (Psalm 34:19).
The purpose of this book is to help couples to build solid marriages devoid of financial conflicts and marital dissolutions due to money arguments in marriage; by understanding financial planning in marriage, God's design for marriage, commitment in marriage, and the need to put one's spouse above the love for money. This book will help rescue couples teetering on the edges of separation, and divorce because of money arguments in marriage. Scholarly research has found that thousands of couples are separated or divorced yearly because of money arguments in marriage. The enemy of the family knows that once couples are separated, those under their care, such as their children, will be vulnerable to all kinds of social vices such as drug use, dropping out of school, ending up in jail, prostitution, and having children as single parents. Children raised in broken homes do not perform well in a society like those born and raised in two-parent homes.

Never let anyone extinguish that beautiful light that surrounds you and also that light deep within your heart and soul.

Many sincere Christians are in bondage to all sorts of addictions and bad habits that have become strongholds in their lives. These strongholds can be anything from pornography, drugs, food, sex, gambling, etc. that ruin their marriages, employment, and most importantly, their Christian witness. I've experienced the shame and guilt that comes with these sins, and by God's grace, the Lord revealed how to use His Word to pull down these strongholds. I have written this book to help those who are frustrated with being on the roller coaster of guilt, repentance, and failure again. It is an easy read and simple to understand, pointing out God's plan in His Word for you to be free as Jesus stated in John 8:36, "Whom the Son set free is free indeed."
One theme that echoes throughout this book is that God had been preparing me for a personal encounter with Him. I recounted how things were during my childhood years. Through a series of circumstances, He set the stage and laid the foundation so He can in the future shape me into whatever form He wishes. In almost all of these testimonies, it's clear that He (El Shaddai) wanted me to understand what I can be through Him. He guided me through endless crucibles, all for the purpose of allowing me to see His greatness and His ability to transform my life. This book helps to unveil the secret of the inner man, that carnal nature that is in constant battle with the desire in you to do good. It explains that it is absolutely possible to win the battle between good and evil. The last chapter was very challenging to share because it exposes the weaknesses that we sometimes choose to deny. This book brings you face to face with your stubbornness and with one of the most destructive traits lurking within--it's called pride. You will be surprised to discover how deeply it has embedded itself in your consciousness, but you can get victory when you take action to deliberately surrender to God. You will discover perhaps for the first time that empowerment comes with surrendering. I wish you a life-changing experience as you share in this blessing.
When you read chapter 18 in the book of Revelation, you can easily become curious as to what country this place called Babylon the Great could be referring to. Theologians of the past said it was the literal Babylon located in Iraq; however, upon a more current review of the clues woven within the verses, we find that the evidence points to America.In this amazing comparison of up-to-date facts between a city in Iraq and the United States, ample proof has been uncovered and presented that was not previously seen. The author, a theologian himself, has hammered out another interesting read.

Marriage is a divine covenant! However, today, we are witnessing the total disintegration of this sacred institution in many societies globally as the divorce rate continues to escalate. This holy union is under attack more than at any other time in modern history. Our prayer is that this kingdom love manual will bring God's perspective on what we must do to restore sanity to this sacred union. Marriage, as instituted by Elohim, was designed to be a union that brings joy, fruitfulness, and the fulfillment of divine purpose.We write from a strictly biblical paradigm. We will not attempt to impose our personal opinions on such a sacred institution. Yes, we will draw from our experiences gleaned from our years of friendship and marriage. We will also draw insights from the hundreds of couples we have counseled and weddings officiated as pastors for well over thirty years now.We pray that our blessed Holy Spirit would grant our readers deeper insights and understanding necessary to craft a blissful marital journey. Marriage is a divine gift that the Lord designed to bring joy and fulfillment to both parties. But like any of life's endeavors, it comes with its own sets of challenges and complexities. We now live in a fallen world and are, therefore, subject to human errors and weaknesses. Fortunately, we don't have to navigate this journey alone. God has provided ample information to assist us in successfully navigating this journey.God instituted marriage, and in His wisdom, He left us a manual to help us navigate this journey--the Bible. He never intended the marital experience to be one of trial and error. Yes, He foresaw the many challenges, but with adequate preparation, moral support, and guidance from the Holy Spirit, we would be able to make it to the finish line successfully. In Christian marriage, failure is not an option. We commence this journey to win.
Death and destruction are the result of man's fallen nature. This world's history is filled with wars and rumors of war. Untold millions have lost their lives in these endless battles, and sadly, more battles are on the way. This book identifies the major wars approaching the people of this world, according to the Holy Word of God. Terrifying times are drawing near for those who are not saved and, as a result, will remain on this earth during these catastrophes. Praise God; this book also reveals God's simple plan of salvation and clearly describes what a person must do to be saved and escape the horror to come. God desires that all come to the Lord Jesus Christ, receiving forgiveness of their sins and an eternal home in heaven. He has done all He can by sending His precious Son into this world to die on a cruel Roman cross. We thank God that not only did Jesus die for us but that He was also buried and, on the third day, gloriously raised from the dead, giving eternal life to all those who receive Him as their personal Lord and Saviour. God never turns anyone away who comes to Him with a repentant heart. His grace is sufficient to take away our sins and gather us into His loving arms. If you are not yet saved, our prayer is for you to receive Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour today, finding the peace and joy that only He can give.
Writing my true-crime autobiography is only half the story. The second half is my redemption and repentance to my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. The book is 100 percent truth, from my wild childhood days in New York City to me joining the US Navy at age sixteen and serving eight years honorably. The only problem, I was living a double life. I was also a mob associate and worked with a crew from one of the five families. It was the early 1990s, the reign of the Teflon Don. I want people to know I'm Irish and Polish, not Italian. I did a couple of successful heists by myself after I was betrayed by my mob connections, who were also childhood friends. I tell my complete story where I was charged with the RICO Act, which is organized crime; conspiracy to rob an armored truck; as well as conspiracy to transfer currency across state lines. I never did no major time because of one mob contact, I'll call Big Loser, who was a total idiot. Every job he planned in New York with me went bust. Besides all that, he screwed up my job of a lifetime. My biggest mistake was picking him and his neighbor to take the money from the armored truck company I worked for.
