The King has come. The God of love planned reconciliation and transformation for the people he created. He planned liberation from bondage for all creation through the life, death, and resurrected life of his Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus the King has come. He has inaugurated the kingdom. The Sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5-7) is the constitution of that kingdom. The constitution is intended to make Christlike disciples. The central dynamic of the constitution is godlike love and is based on his grace. The Sermon begins with the essence of character, which is the foundation of all relationships and conduct. Who we are determines the influence we have and controls our conduct. Our conduct is based on right relationships with God, others, self, and the material world. The Sermon is practical, dealing with every aspect of life. Our relationship with God is to be one of reverence and self-discipline. Our relationship to possessions calls for rejection of slavery to those possessions and to worry. In relationship to self, we must avoid destructive criticism and exercise discernment. Many areas are discussed in our relationship to others, such as murder, sex, retaliation, and more. Join me in the study of the kingdom constitution as it reveals how to live life in the image of God. All who will may become a part of the kingdom by offering full allegiance to the King and by living life by the rule of godlike love.
Upon moving to Minnesota and living next to an Amish community, I was intrigued to learn about Amish life. That moment came, when I was working in my garden one Sunday. A brother and sister of the nearby Amish family decided to come over and talk to me while they went for a walk. I was flattered to get to know some of the family. My husband came out to greet them as well. I knew in my heart that I was going to be a part of this moving, beautiful story of which this was only the beginning. I, being a patient soul, was prepared to get to know, learn, offer help, and advise, if they asked of me, or when I thought they needed to know something. I only wanted to help them, especially a young Amish woman, succeed in their way of life. All human emotions from sad, happy, indifferent, and outright hilarious, at times, are evident. There is an element of suspense in the story. Shortly after, it was time to end and put down my pen.
We never know when we will be called upon to act as God's servants, but we must be ready to accept the work to spread the message of the gospel and the kingdom of God. In The World Loves Its Own, minister and author David C. Dawson provides a unique, in-depth discussion of becoming a servant and what it means. Through scriptural examples, Dawson reiterates the requirements the Lord has placed on his servants, some of which have been disregarded or taken lightly. A real person who discusses real situations, Dawson describes the true servants of God and their history, the reason for their calling, and what they should expect from society for performing their roles. During his earthly ministry, Jesus Christ informed his disciples they would face harsh persecution from society for their faith in Him. True Christians today will also face severe persecution. The World Loves Its Own is an intense probe into the warning message Christ left for all believers today.
This book is my translation of the Bible's prophecy as well as how it ties into today's events. It breaks down a couple of books within the Bible.

The Paleolithic Paradigm takes us one step further in the nature/nurture debate. Certainly a certain percentage of our behaviors are biologically based. However, culture has the power to override much in genetic commands. The Amish exemplify this, no matter how much "we" qualify them as "quaint." Painting with a wide post-modern paint brush, Stocker takes on a journey through four cultures to show how different people can be. He offers the analogy: our genetic structure is the framework of any house. How we cover and decorate that frame is often the product of ancient traditions. However, we are all products of the same cognitive processes, thus explaining why we take ideas put into our heads as children to the grave whether we accept them, reject them, or alter them. It is this commonality the author examines. Accordingly, he wants to know, if we understand our cognition processes, can we change out behavior at will?
God, what's it all about? How often have you heard these exact words? How many people ask that question? What is it that they are asking? Why are they asking such a question of God? When do they ask these questions? Most importantly, how do we get our answers to what it is all about? These answers, just like all of the answers in the universe, come from God's will. This is why we always confirm with God, "God, your will, not mine be done " God loves us more than we could ever understand. That's why deep in our soul, we know God's will will be the driving force for our success here on Earth, but most importantly in heaven. With God's help, you will create an ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit's message. Once you accept God's Word and you listen openly to it, you will only need to listen, and you will hear what God is saying to you.
Battered and psychologically abused by an alcoholic father and neglected by an equally abused mother, Michael, age seven, descended into rage at the murder of his beloved pet rooster and the death of his adored sister. Consumed by murderous hate, Michael was exiled to an obscure monastery between China and Tibet in the back of beyond, from a place it was assumed he would never return. A very special Buddhist monk, Kako, made it his life's work to reclaim the wreck that was this belligerent boy. It took Kako eleven years to transform Michael into the man of peace and charity he is today. The path was difficult and often seemed impossible as Michael resisted all of Kako's patient teaching. Michael's transformation was aided by a handwoven soccer ball made from bamboo and coconut skin and a team of young monks who played a game they had never seen before in their lives. By the time Kako passed away at the age of forty-four, Michael was ready to return to a world that had long ago forgotten him. Shinawa: The Story of a Reclaimed Life is the remarkable story of the long and difficult path to Michael's transformation.

If the reader is a strong believer in a Satan and is searching for truth, he or she will never think of Satan with the same perspective as before upon finishing this book. It draws from History and Scripture to provide harmonious answers to questions in context of God's love and purpose. That knowledge, truth, justice, righteousness are links in the symbolic chain, which binds evil as the Gospel Age metamorphoses into the Kingdom of God as willing hearts overcome fear, sorrow, guilt, greed, hate, prejudice, jealousy, etc. Evil fades from the hearts of most people as Jesus the Christ's Kingdom grows in righteousness and justice, love and mercy with willing minds creating or supporting hundreds of financial, mental, medical, physical and religious activities that counter evils plaguing mankind and improves the wellness of all. Evil; Apostle John calls it Satan, Devil, Serpent, Dragon, conceived in the minds of men, has brought neighbor against neighbor, nation against nation and religion against religion, but now evil is being bound as the Kingdom of Jesus the Christ slowly envelopes the earth.
In Spirit and in Truth encapsulates the idea that God wants to be our friend as well as the God we worship. It looks at what stops us from entering into a one-on-one relationship with Him and how this can be overcome, as well as the concept of living a lifestyle of pouring out our love (worship) to Him. The book also looks at worship and its true meaning, and to what extent music has to do with worshiping our God. In Spirit and in Truth is written with a scriptural outlook toward the reality of how God's manifested presence can reside within us and the outcome this can have on our society when we walk through life with the realization of this truth. This book is a short, easy read for all people who have a desire to know God more. It will either confirm your walk with Him or stretch you right out of your comfort zone and into the presence of God.
