"Tapestry: A Medieval Tale of Curses, Crowns, and Courage"
introduces a wonderful world of dragons, knights, and powerful
wizards. They wind their way through a maze of lies, jealousy, and
madness in search of truth, justice, and honor. As imagined by
author Jerry Smith, this world comes alive through a poetic
narrative that follows the story of a gentle princess and her
reluctant hero. Fortified with courage and stealth, they find the
strength and perseverance to overcome the death, darkness, and
destruction unleashed upon their land by an evil, power-hungry mage
and a scheming sorceress.
Written in the style of the great Greek and Roman poets,
Tapestry presents rich imagery and eloquent rhyming couplets
portraying the adversity encountered by its characters. It follows
them as they struggle-evil against good, death against life, and
destruction against rebirth. Feudal lords, evil enemies, and noble
knights emerge and entwine into colorful strands, creating this
carefully woven tale as a vibrant tapestry filled with hope and
promise for an age consumed by darkness and despair.

Here are Jerry Smith's hilarious life stories from his boyhood days
growing up in the Ozark Mountains during the 1950's and 60's.
Characters and situations come to life from the perspective of a
young boy caught in the struggle to deal with fear and
self-identity. These are not just outrageously funny stories but
they drive toward serious answers to important life issues.
River of Courage, is set in the beautiful river bottom community of
Boswell along the White River in the Ozark Mountains of North
Arkansas; the author's boyhood home. Here, author Jerry Smith
documents the struggle of three generations of common people who
showed uncommon courage in a time of crisis. Couched in the
prophecy of an old Cherokee visionary, courage is revealed and
forged through the lives of various people along the "Big White."
The great, and sometimes terrifying, adventures these common people
experience in the hills they call home, will prepare them to face
greater fears and crises to come even half way around the world and
in the deepest recesses of their hearts.

Author Jerry Smith lays out a unique presentation for understanding
God's plan of the ages; a "birds eye view," as he calls it. With
his outline from Genesis to Revelation the reader can visualize the
unfolding drama of the Apocalypse and the triumphant return of
Jesus Christ. Author Jerry Smith began to discover early in his
thirty plus year tenure as a pastor that most people are confused
instead of comforted by end-time and apocalyptic teachings. He has
outlined for every layman and Bible student a simple "skeleton" and
framework for understanding God's plan of the ages so that we don't
have to be confused. Going from the original creation to the new
creation he displays the different ages and dispensations and shows
how they form a pattern to help us understand the greatest
revelation of all - the return of Jesus Christ. Included are
original charts drawn by the author and a concise commentary on the
book of Revelation. Whether you hold to a certain millennial or
rapture view or not, this material is designed to give you a
framework to build your own viewpoint. It is recommended reading
for every true believer in Jesus.
The Disciple's Hands is a practical and simple guide for helping
any believer reproduce disciples of Jesus. The Author, Dr. Jerry
Smith, has spent over thirty years as a pastor, teacher,
missionary, and disciple maker. Much of the content of the book was
used to help make disciples, many of whom are still reproducing in
like kind. The author believes that the command of Jesus in The
Great Commission is still viable today. But many have
misinterpreted it, misapplied it, or simply ignored it. He
confesses that The Disciple's Hands book is not exhaustive, but
rather an important starting place for those concerned about making
disciples.
Word Dynamics is about understanding the power of words in our
daily life. It is about getting a word on our heart - acting upon
that word by faith - and seeing a wonderful result. Jerry Smith
pulls together nearly half a century of struggle and discovery,
knowledge, insight, and passion to unfold for the reader a concept
that can literally change one's life. Jerry relates how childhood
circumstances and negative word dynamics forced him to seek out a
way for success and blessing. He shares how his discovery of a
positive word dynamic, a powerword, changed his life and how it can
change yours. You will come to understand how everything in life
hangs on a word or words. You will discover how words affect us and
how you can use words to turn negative situations into positive
blessings. You will learn the difference between the head and the
heart, and how words relate to each. You will learn why it only
takes a small amount of faith to move mountains, how prayer can be
real and effective, and how to apply positive word dynamics to
nearly every area of your life for success and blessing.
