-the importance of authentic living
-putting on the whole armor of God
-overcoming obstacles in life
-the key to avoiding sexual temptations
-focusing on that which is most important
The perfect gift for the hunter, fisherman, or gun enthusiast, "Faith Afield" will challenge men as it brings them closer to God.

Tender and tough, honest and true, Fatherland is a vital and necessary show about what we were, who we are and what we'd like to become. The world premiere of Fatherland took place at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester on 5 July 2017 as part of Manchester International Festival. This is a revised version of the original text which coincides with performances in London at the Lyric Hammersmith as part of LIFT 2018.

What is success in war? Who defines success? A review of past theorists such as Sun Tzu, Thucydides, Jomini and Clausewitz along with modern scholars such as William Martel, Azar Gat, and J. Boone Bartholomees produces a model for understanding success. First, success must be defined using political terms. Since war is a political endeavor at the strategic level, success in war must be defined using political language. Politicians and military leaders must define the objectives of war and convince the population that the political condition has improved using whatever political language is required for the given situation. Military tactical language is not sufficient for defining success at the political level. Second, the political leaders must define the desired objective for the military campaign. Political leaders understand politics and the nature of the population. Military leaders should help political leaders define success in war. Politicians understand the population and military leaders understand the theory and history of war. Third, the political condition that exists at the end of the war determines whether the war was successful. Victory in battle is important but is not always necessary for success. War must improve the political condition. Finally, a review of two US conflicts in Lebanon against the success model demonstrates its utility. The political and military leaders in Lebanon 1958 followed the theory of the model and achieved a successful outcome for the conflict. The political and military leaders of Lebanon 1983 did not adhere to the theory of the success model and were unable to achieve success. Although adherence to the model will not ensure future success, it can be used to help political and military leaders better prepare for future conflict.

Natalie, a typical 21st century California teen, is an unlikely candidate for savior of the Native American tribes, but across the United States, tribal elders are meeting in secret locations to ponder a petroglyph of a girl dressed in red leading the people through a cave-like opening to a new land. The story is very old and originated with a single tribe on the west coast thousands of years ago, but over the centuries this tale of a girl who would lead them to a new world spread throughout the tribes. The time for her to lead them through the mysterious opening in the earth has arrived. Natalie's young life is shattered when she learns her parents have died in an auto accident, but she has no idea the extent to which her life, and indeed the entire world, will soon change. When she visits her grandfather at his ranch to deliver the news his daughter and son-in-law have died, her Grandpa Jeb tells her of the new world awaiting at the end of a lava tube his own father discovered many years before, the tube's entrance now hidden in Jeb's barn. The characters speculate that the tube is actually a worm hole because it takes them back more than 9,000 years, to the western coast of the North American continent during the Paleo-Indian period. Natalie's grandfather has discovered that the world as we know it will end in a few short years, and he makes plans to transfer as much of the best of our modern knowledge to the old world as he can before the coming cataclysm. A central question in the novel is the possibility of remaking the world without making the same mistakes (the abuse of the earth, the invention of nuclear weapons, relationships between peoples defined by power and military might, and etc.). What if, one of the characters asks, the Native Americans had been left to develop toward some unified civilization instead of being nearly wiped out by the European invasion? Beyond The Barn Door is at once an apocalyptic tale of the end of modern civilization and a tale of hope in the rebirth of a new civilization to take its place. It is also a love story, and a story of human creativity and resilience.

This is the LIMITED WRATH EDITION of Hellucination. A drug-fueled trip through the gruesome levels of Hell may sound like a fictional horror story to some, and since the traveler in question was movie distributor Stephen Biro, it could just as easily have been one of his film projects. But Stephen's experiences were the real, life-changing sort. They're also proof that the Lord does work in mysterious ways -- extending all the way to squares of LSD and nitrous oxide cartridges.
Armed with psychedelics, hallucinogenics and a brave desire to meet God no matter the personal cost, Stephen pushed beyond the boundaries of safe drug use. He took the most nightmarish of trips from a cramped one-bedroom apartment that he used for running his underground video business. With initial difficulty finding God in his altered state, Stephen instead encountered depravity and grotesquery enough to make his soul weep, but he pushed on. And if that wasn't bad enough, his Hellish experiences bled over into his waking days, and his friends and acquaintances began identifying themselves to him as Antichrists, deities and other assorted beings from "the other side." Reality was blurring and shifting, and Stephen was run utterly ragged. Could he fulfill his quest to learn universal truths before his extreme drug use took its toll?
Hellucination: A Memoir spares no disturbing detail of the unusual route that one man took to find Christ and the God of the Bible. The memoir also follows younger Stephen through his 1970s childhood and his bizarre early encounters with religion that drove him to Atheism.
""An utterly surreal memoir. I'd say it was 'mindbending, ' but" "HELLUCINATION" "doesn't just bend your mind, it twists it, stretches it, stabs it, and tosses it on the grill "" - Jeff Strand, author of the upcoming book, "PRESSURE" and "WOLF HUNT" He's been nominated for the Bram Stoker Award in 2006, 2008, and 2010.
"HELLUCINATION" takes the form of a page-turning memoir, combining personal trip reporting with science fiction, horror movie, and religious mythologies, philosophical speculation on the nature of the author's experiments with psychedelic drug combinations, strange encounters with other people who may not be what they seem, and the rationale behind his spiritual conversion from atheism to Christianity." " --David Jay Brown
Author of "Mavericks of the Mind" and "Conversations on the Edge of the Apocalypse"
"HELLUCINATION" is a powerful read. In fact, it might distinctly appeal to fantasy readers, film lovers and lovers of fiction. Biro writes passionately with a purpose... you may end of ripping your eyes out afterwards though." " -- Review, Horrornews.net
"Mind-boggling and enthralling. The visualization techniques used is astounding." - Paul White - "Producer of Bride of Re-Animator and Brian Yuzna's Society"
"I felt myself questioning my faith, or lack of faith, on religion, Jesus, God, the Devil, and what the purpose and point of my life and existence really was/is. I think that is the point of the book. The book raises awareness and makes readers think about the meaning of life and what their purpose is in it. That, in itself, is a pretty scary thing to think and ponder about. - Hellucination - Book review by" www.shuizmz.com
"Cinematic... it's going to scare the Hell out of some Christians." - Jim VanBebber - "Director of The Manson Family and Deadbeat At Dawn"
