Ask yourself honestly have you ever defined who God is to you? I'm not asking you what the Holy Scriptures said, what your preacher said, or what your parents said; I'm asking have you ever defined God for yourself, based on what you know and feel? Everyone else's thoughts and opinions (including Holy Scriptures) can be taken into consideration, but it's time you developed a personal relationship with God. Many of us see God as an important entity in our lives, so it's time we do away with the myths and fairy tales and get down to the truth about God. I dive headfirst into a dirty pool of religious beliefs with the God of Oneness & Love as my cleaning utensil. I swim through this abyss seeking to dismiss all thoughts and views that don't define or describe God as the essence of Love and Oneness (unity). I discuss things you wanted to know about God, things you need to know about God, and perhaps some things you didn't want to know about God. I tell you exactly who or what God is. I tell you who and what God is not. I also discuss human beings concerning their relationship with God, seeking to reunite and release the Divine within each of us. There are many people who have tremendous faith in God, or who seek to have a better relationship with God, but feel trapped because of religious doctrines and beliefs. The information contained within this book will help release these individuals from this self-imposed bondage. As an author it is my intention to raise the awareness level of all religious and spiritual people by showing how we are 'One with God.' It is also my intent to remind all that God is Love. GOD Redefined was written to challenge your mind and to awaken your soul. It's purpose is to raise the awareness level concerning the word 'God' and to unite all who truly believe that God is Love. You will be pulled out of your comfort zone as you read this information so take your time and digest it slowly. Some readers will not be able to swallow this 'Soul Food', and will be deeply disturbed by the contents of this material. But for those who are ready for the sweet delicate taste of Spiritual Truth, prepare for a feast that your spirit has been longing for.

Herald Wilton is considered one of the best lawyers in the state, but has an unorthodox approach regarding the cases he takes and the clients he defends. He refuses to work with individuals who are not truthful and has turned down millions of dollars from wealthy dishonest individuals. However, when the most unlikely being calls for assistance, Wilton's principles of truth and honesty are put to the ultimate test. The world celebrates as it is announced that Satan is finally captured and charged for being the source of all evil on the planet. Following the arrest of Satan, Wilton is soon contacted by Satan and asked to be his lawyer. Being taken aback by this request, Wilton begins a dialogue with Satan that has him confused yet intrigued. Satan proclaims his innocence but Wilton is not convinced. Satan then presents Wilton and his staff a challenge to find five evil acts he has committed in the Holy Bible. Wilton accepts the challenge and promises to meet Satan if they cannot find five evil acts. Wilton and his co-workers begin a deep and heated dialogue regarding the merits of Satan's case. As they explore the bible to dissect Satan's involvement within the scriptures, emotions begin to run high and tempers begin to boil. Unable to complete the task, Wilton keeps his promise and meets Satan at the prison. During his conversation with Satan, Wilton finds him to be honest, but uncovers a truth that has his world turned upside down as the conversation stretches the limits of his mind. As word gets out that Satan has been communicating with the law firm Wilton & Associates, the lives of Wilton and his colleagues are forever changed as they become infamously labeled ?The Devil's Defense?. Their beliefs are challenged and their faith is tested as they confront family and friends who question their association with Satan. The Devil's Defense is a short novel (35,000 - word) for Personal Growth and Development. This story will have readers mystified and galvanized, as the dialogue explores the realms of religion, science and mythology. Avid readers of the bible will be challenged on scriptures once considered easily explained, and non readers of the bible will develop the desire to review the scriptures of old. But more importantly this book will encourage each reader to enhance their perspective of God, because masked within the storyline and dialogue is a call for Oneness, Love, and Truth.

The "gay agenda" is a rhetorical strategy deployed by the religious right and other social conservatives to magnify fear and hostility of queers. Queers are accused, among other things, of strategizing to recruit children into sexually deviant lifestyles; dismantling family and marriage as cornerstones of civilization; and forcing the entertainment industry and court systems to do their bidding. Queers certainly do have an agenda but it is not the one that the religious right claims it is. It is to assert their presence in the public space; claim and name their identities; and strategize for social justice in law, schools, and workplaces. The Gay Agenda: Claiming Space, Identity, and Justice claims and reclaims the language of "agenda" and turns the rhetoric of the religious right on its ear. The contributors provide insightful and sharp commentary on gay agendas for human rights, marriage and family, cultural influences, schooling and education, and politics and law.
