God was manifest at the birth of Jesus on earth. He was not created
at the birth of Jesus. Most Christian doctrines and church dogma
have this unrealized foundation. The Bible did not start with
Matthew any more than the revelations of God to mankind. The New
Testament stands on the Old Testament. Jesus said, "Think not that
I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to
destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and
earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the
law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of
these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be
called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do
and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of
heaven" (Matt 5:17-19). The response heard countless of times in
Bible discussion is, "But that was under the Law and Jesus came to
do away with the Law." Really? Bible prophesy will not be fulfilled
until the creation of the New Heavens and Earth at Revelation
chapter twenty-one. According to Jesus; the Church and the New
Testament stands on God's unchangeable Law. The Church was born as
a Jewish child. That is her birthright.

school. He is extremely serious about his beliefs and strives to
live accordingly. He faces opposition spirit, soul, and body in the

in the spirit realm. He is aided by the companionship of good
friends and strong parents. Life is good (most of the time) but not
without everyday struggles. Only Terry's everyday struggles are
different from most teenagers for his are not all in the physical
realm.
Does God operate in the supernatural in the world today? Or did He

story of one seeker's search of supernatural Truth. Journey with
Barry from childhood through his adult life, as God slowly unfolds

Jesus At Twelve is a factual novel which concerns the life of Jesus
when He was twelve years old. The facts are taken from in depth
historical studies. It is written so the average Christian does not
have any problem understanding the text even though it contains
research on Bible college level. Jesus is portrayed as a normal boy
who plays with his friends but with an extraordinary discernment
and wisdom. The political climate and spiritual aspects of the day
are demonstrated in the story. The center of the narrative is the
festival of Passover. The reader walks to Jerusalem and celebrates
the Passover with Jesus and His family. They get a look into the
possibilities of Jesus' visit with the teachers of the Law. This
includes some of the actual discussions of Hillel, the head rabbi
of the Pharisaical Sanhedrin the year Jesus was there. The walk
back, the descriptions of the average homes, and glances at the
carpentry business give more insight to the life Jesus lead while
on earth. The reader joins Jesus and His family as they observe the
Sabbath, one of the mainstays of Judaism Nazareth is only a short
walk from Sepphoris, the capitol of Galilee. Jesus accompanies His
earthly father Joseph to this Roman designed city where He observes
the practice of the theatre. Details such as the Mosaic floor are
drawn from actual excavations of this theatre. Two of well-known
rabbis of the time who lived close to Nazareth visit Jesus' school
and, like Hillel, some of their actual teachings are included. The
reader will leave this book with an understanding of Jesus as a boy
most never dreamed possible.

Roderic B. Davis, Sr., is better known as "Coach Barry" or "Barry."
Coach Barry has been coaching since 1976, when he was 19 years old.
Due to his coaching and interacting with youth and their parents,
he has had plenty of opportunities to talk to both, his players and
their parents, about different situations in their life. He soon
found out that coaching just for that particular sport was not the
only reason why he was coaching. Everyday issues and situations
about day-to-day life was the priority. When Barry talked to them,
not having the time to think of a politically correct response or a
perfect answer, God blessed him to be able to speak to them from
his heart. Barry realized he was coaching for life. Today, he still
teaches and coaches basketball, while giving life lessons with a
common sense approach. It is said, "Common Sense" is not all that
common. From My Heart shows how regular everyday issues and
situations can either be solved, or changed for the better, by
using plain old common sense. From My Heart will make people sit-up
and take inventory of their lives to see if there was anything they
could have done better, and if there is anything they can do better
to improve their life. From My Heart is a book filled with God
inspired messages. It was written to help people deal with life's
issues and situations. As you read, you will see Barry has a
passion for children, families, and people in general, who are
trying to live their lives the best way they can. These messages
are about all different aspects of life. Even though common sense
may not seem to be that common, sooner or later, common sense has
gotta kick in.
