Throughout his childhood and during his twenty years of professional service in the New Zealand Army, author Michael J. Roberts repeatedly heard a message: grown men don't cry. To cope with life's ups and downs, Roberts put on a mask and effectively concealed his emotions behind it-that is, until he was diagnosed with cancer. In Grown Men Don't Cry, Roberts shares his story and describes how he found inner peace by allowing himself to cry and by turning to be Jesus to be saved. This memoir narrates his personal journey as he faced recovery from a major operation, the fight against late stage-three cancer, radiation, and chemotherapy and ensuing depression. He tells how through these challenges and despair he found hope and God. A story about one man's triumph over great odds and the fear of death, Grown Men Don't Cry shows that no matter the despair or the pain, one must always have hope.

The first comprehensive and consistent philosophy of consciousness has been developed based on the unique hierarchical approach and hierarchical logic, with applications to the methodology of science, psychology and everyday life.

Author's Corner My name is Jennifer V. Spersrud and I am 42 years old. I have celiac disease. That might sound awful to you, but not for me My regional gluten-free life style books will be a wonderful resource to inform you of gluten-free supermarkets to gluten-free bakeries in your entire region. Having celiac disease is more than just an allergy to gluten, but it is a lifestyle change. In these books I have included points to help make life easier for those people living with gluten allergies; for example, eating out at restaurants. You need to be proactive in dealing with this situation. For example, when eating out at restaurants, be sure to ask the right questions: 1.Do you have a gluten-free menu? If the answer is no, I myself would not eat there. Taking a chance of receiving gluten is not worth it to me. 2.Does the kitchen chef have a section on the grill/stove for gluten-free items? This is a crucial question because if it is at all possible that gluten can reach the clean area of the grill, you should not risk ingesting it. But as I said you need to ask the specific questions to get the right answers. 3.Does the kitchen staff prepare meals in stainless pots and pans with stainless cooking tools? This is important because plastic utensils absorb the wheat and other gluten-containing elements. These are just a few questions that can help you learn to cope with eating out, and continuing your normal life. I say normal because having a gluten-allergy is just another part of your life and that should not hold you back from any part of your previous lifestyle. My resource books cover a lot of knowledge on gluten-free lifestyle; let's do this together Sincerely, Jennifer

Harold Watkins gets a wake-up call after his annual physical. He is out of shape, inactive and almost needs to go shopping for a coffin. The grim reaper is out looking for him. He could try and hide.

Instead, he decides that drastic changes are needed in his life and so he enlists the help of two friends and sets out on a long journey to fitness through the unlikely (for him) sport of running. He soon discovers that there is a lot more to life than sitting in front of a television set and chomping down on burgers and fries.

Throughout the journey Harold experiences every emotion possible from the pain and low esteem of the early beginnings, to the sheer joy and satisfaction of achieving long term goals he had not thought previously possible.

Harold's helpers turn out to be his best friends as well as two very good coaches and have many hilarious runs and training incidents on the way. Harold pushes the word friendship to the limit. At the end of the journey he emerges a completely transformed and totally different person with a whole new outlook on life.

Anyone who runs, or is thinking of taking up running, needs to read this book and use Harold's motivation and perseverance to help with their own personal journeys. If Harold can do it, so can you.

If there is ever a chance to understand fasting once and for all and incorporated it into your spiritual life, Fasting Outside the Box will exceed your expectations and revolutionize your walk with God. The differentiation of fasting "inside" or "outside" the box is very thought-provoking as it reveals the contrast between one's motives and the condition of the heart. Fasting was commonplace with the early leaders of the Church and it is still one of the most impactful disciplines that draws us into a closer intimacy with God. Pastor Bankas maintains that fasting not only ignites the "fire" of our devotion and commitment to God but also intensifies and strengthens our prayer life. With great insight, he shows you how to... Hang out with God Purify your heart Come near to God Receive the secret pearls of fasting Know why you should fast "John Bankas leaves footprints wherever he goes. I see Fasting Outside the Box as a written expression and extension of this pastor's love for everyone he meets. Here is a book that will definitely leave indelible footprints on your heart." - Bruce D. Johnson, Superintendent of Redwood Christian Schools, Castro Valley, California. "Fasting Outside the Box is born out of a consistent life of prayer and fasting led by Pastor John. He is not theorizing about fasting or writing about a vicarious experience he has had with it. This book describes a firsthand experience." - Dada A. Daodu, Special Education Teacher; Technical Assistant, Kogi State, Nigeria. "Fasting Outside the Box takes the fear and mystery out of fasting and gives a clear, step-by-step understanding of how fasting can benefit you, especially in developing an intimacy with God." - Joy J. Zandona, final-year MAT student at Fuller Theological Seminary, California.
