The Twelve Steps program of Alcoholics Anonymous has helped millions of us. Without it we would not have found our way. I for one am extremely grateful for this life saving gift. My concern for its continued life is the drifting from its foundation. The Twelve Step program has lost its fire. The fire lost is the spirit, the spirit of God. The spirit is still smoldering in the Twelve Step program, just waiting to be ignited again. I will introduce you to the founding fathers of AA; show how the program's foundation was originally based in Christianity and a relationship with Jesus; share my experience with the Twelve Steps developed by the founding fathers; and provide you with a method to apply the Twelve Steps as originally developed by the founding fathers to your life. Working the Twelve Steps as they were originally intended can change your life dramatically, break the addiction cycle and create a relationship with Jesus. The fire of the Holy Spirit will become part of your life. Gary Agnew has recaptured the original and true spirit of the Twelve Step Movement that was founded upon explicitly Christian principles; namely, that without Christ we can do nothing, but in Him we can do everything. A Higher Power of this Movement was originally the Holy Spirit of the Christ who lives within. Faith, hope, love and forgiveness are the essential principles of AA. Rev. William McCarthy, MSA An essential role of healing is turning our minds and hearts toward God. Gary Agnew captures the centrality of this wisdom in a remarkable way in his Twelve Step book. In recovery sometimes therapy is needed; sometimes medication, but ultimately the healing is between the person and God. The Twelve Steps are a way of life-a guide that everyone can use to live in freedom and peace. The Holy Spirit is the Guide within it who heals us. I am thrilled to have this book as a resource in the healing process. Mary Alice Rossini, NP Nurse Practitioner/Psychiatry

These poems deal with how God, with tender love, powerful wisdom and patient invitation, intersects the lives of people, and how we may, if we wish, respond to such intervention. They touch on a variety of circumstances and influences that are the common experience of all, whether Christian or non-Christian: confusion, decision-making, defeat, disappointment, entanglement, forgiveness, marriage, national life, personal private devotion, prayer, resentment, success. It is hoped that the index of scriptural references will encourage the reader to build worthwhile bridges between scriptural truths and daily living; that the built-in metrical arrangements in the poems will encourage the singing of some of the poems as hymns, and that the content, convictions and connections expressed in each poem will, after the final poem is read, enable the reader to respond positively and sincerely to this powerful invitation from the triune God: I kept the cruse of oil from running dry; The loaves and fishes I did multiply; I rescued Daniel from the lion's den; I even gave my life for you. But then Your doubts still hold you in captivity. I'm in control, my child Just trust in Me

HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO REALLY UNDERSTAND BIBLICAL PROPHECY? NOW YOU CAN. There is an absolute Truth that everyone should know: The world as we know it will come to an end, and it will be in the near future. There is going to be a day of reckoning for our world. God Almighty is going to judge the Earth and the entire universe and it will all be destroyed in an instant. This is an absolute fact, whether you choose to believe it or not. Within the pages of The Ultimate End, you will find a clear and concise explanation of the very synopsis of the end times written by the Apostle John in the Book of Revelation. Here you can discover that The Revelation is not a book of vague mystery, but rather a writing of true revelation, which is intended to be understood by anyone who will trust and believe God's Word.

In today's chaotic and challenging world, we all need encouragement. For the past fifteen years, my wife and I have utilized various daily devotionals for that helpful dose of inspiration to start our day. This book is written from the perspective of a not-so-perfect Christian in a manner that will speak to men and women of all ages and faiths, and provide them a simple encouraging, uplifting bit of insight for each day of the year. I believe this book will allow those who read it to gain a fresh understanding of God, His love for them, and His plan for their life. And as they begin to understand God's love, they will experience the joy and peace He offers to those who love and trust Him. The first 105 devotionals deal with Bible verses from Genesis to Revelations that speak about not being afraid. The second phase deals with verses from Matthew through Revelations that speak of God's love. And the remaining days of the year are writings on verses from Matthew through Revelations relating to joy and peace. The writing of these encouragements has blessed me beyond measure and brought me closer to the Lord than I ever thought I could be. I pray they do the same for you.

This book is the diary of an Egyptian soldier of Armenian descent who served the Egyptian Army during the critical years 1968 through 1972, when Egypt was making preparations for the 1973 war with Israel. The book relates the details of his compulsory draft, his various unforgettable experiences, and after serving more than four years with no end in sight, his daring escape from the Army and the country.

The story is the Author's first-hand description of daily life in the Egyptian Army, his trials and tribulations with a variety of circumstances and characters and close calls with Israeli planes at the Suez Canal.

Finally it relates the nail-biting journey the Author took to freedom, to safely arrive, with God's merciful intervention, in the Promised Land, America.
