The Genesis Men-Noah & Sons, is the second book of a Bible Study Series designed for small group use or individual study. The questions aim to inspire readers to really look at each scriptural passage, especially the terminology used and the setting in which the story is told by the Biblical author. This book continues the history of the men of Genesis by following the family of Noah from chapters 7 through parts of chapter 11. These verses involve the first rains that ever fell upon the earth, lasting 40 days and 40 nights resulting in the first flood and destruction for all humans and animals not housed on the historical boat that Noah and his sons built. Noah's sons repopulated the earth after the flood ended.
History often proclaimed the Blackfeet Indians as the most feared of all the North American tribes, who thought nothing of committing the cold-blooded massacre of the warriors protecting another village, but also the slaughtering of old and young alike, including women, children, and their dogs. They fought with overwhelming brutality, and felt no remorse for those they destroyed. Blackfeet warriors spilled the blood of their enemies everywhere, including onto their own bodies as a symbol of their triumph. Their battle-axes, clubs, tomahawks, and spears were permanently stained with blood. They fought to steal, to overwhelm, and to survive. Men that celebrate their shared love is against tribal laws, and the custom is to either cast out or kill the offending boys. Windtalker and Kiyo grew up using their excellent hunting skills to keep the village supplied with fresh game. During the winter season, when the tribe moves into the deep gorges to escape the frigid winds and deep snows, the fighters teach the young men to attack like warriors by killing without mercy. The young men are exceptional with bows and arrows, accurate with spears, and deadly with battle-axes. By spring, they devise a plan to leave the village by riding across the treacherous ridges and rivers in the Glacier Mountains. Collecting their cache of supplies and weapons, they make their escape, seeking a secret valley far from home. They make many discoveries along the way, including befriending a settler family, and aiding the cavalry against the fierce, bloodthirsty renegades. They endeavor to carve out a life together in a valley so remote, they hope no one will ever find their new home. Their skills as hunters and warriors are often put to the test, but nothing can separate or challenge the love of The Blackfeet Boys.
Revised 2010: On an island, these two teenage boys spent seven years in exile. Exile is what we land lovers would have called it. They would call it paradise. It was a special place. They landed at the age of ten. They knew no prejudices, had no vain reasons to lie, and felt no effects from political attitudes or wars. They lived each day happily, knowing and feeling loved and nurtured. Society missed its chance to ram its inhibitions down their throats. They experienced no Bible-thumping television evangelist threatening their souls, nor were they mocked or scorned. No stuffed shirt generals could threaten to kick them out, and thankfully, no Sunday schoolteachers spit at them. They felt contented. They were in love. They were special.
Edited Revised Edition 2010: Josh and Zeke's penchant for adventure, passion for love, and a monumental fear for their lives, have caused them to flee the family plantation in coastal South Carolina with no destination in mind, only a direction, to head west to live on the frontier in a land where no one knows who they are. Lacking experience in a wilderness life, and having little knowledge of dealing with and defending themselves from the highly experienced Indian warriors, they willingly leave their eastern civilization in hopes of finding a place so remote, they could finally be alone to allow their relationship to grow. Only the power of their love gives each man the strength, determination, and fortitude to endure all that the wilderness could fling in their faces. Their life and love inspire new friends, as they often use their skills learned in war to put their lives on the line to help total strangers survive as well. They learn how to hunt wildlife for food, and track the ferocious Kaga Ozuye demon warriors to ensure the survival of their new friend Yuma. With the help of an old ally from their past, and John Bridger-brother of famed mountain man and explorer James Bridger, they battle renegade former confederate soldiers, and attacks by a vicious Sioux tribe. They sought paradise, but soon learn that finding a haven for love is a constant battle they must fight for, and they would do so, because they would let no man, beast, or wild Indian stop them. No matter how tough the fight, their love for each other still remained supremely more important than all that the world could throw at them.

Brett and Chase were complete opposites when they met and fell in love. Brett, tall and handsome, worked hard every day, never bounced a check, and continually looked towards a better future. Chase went from job to job, could not balance his checkbook, and did not think about the future. Brett loved watching Chase ramble on like a kid on maturity hold forever. He would not have changed a thing about Chase, and like many others, watching him dance with such pure frivolity and happiness, always brought a smile to his face, and joy to his heart. Their love exceeded their differences, and the ensuing painful tragedy created a stronger love and deeper commitment. Chase and Brett's story begins with plans for an exotic tropical vacation, but their difficult journey takes a tragic turn within ten miles of their house. Their story is fiction, but unfortunately, the events of their story continue with gay lovers all around the world.
Thad Nigel Thompson, often called TNT by his fans, was by far one of the best young racecar drivers on the circuit. His big break came two years ago after obtaining a ride in the top racing series, and winning the championship his first year. T had money, a beautiful house, the best racecars, and considered the top star on the track. He thought he was happy, but away from the track, he often felt alone. When T met Jack, and everything changed about the way he thought and felt, but keeping it a secret in the giant sport of racing was nearly impossible. He felt happier than he had been in his whole life, but a determined blackmailer set about a plan exposing his secret to the world. He survived hundreds of wrecks, including spins, flips, and massive impacts to the wall, and more, just so he could win. He didn't care about anything that happened to him, as long as he didn't lose Jack.
The joy of falling in love is fractured with the cannon firing on Fort Sumter, creating chaos for the military academy cadets, especially two men from opposing sides. As soldiers, they must fight, but as lovers, they must flee to the west to avoid fighting against each other. While the plan for their journey together seemed simple enough, the invisible walls of war trapped the cadet from Charleston, while leaving the man from Maine stranded in Saint Louis. His family abandoned him until they needed him to defend the plantation, and eventually their Southern way of life. War changed him, he became a fearless killer, and on many fields of battle, it nearly killed him, but nothing could stop his determination and search for the man he loved, and return to their trail to the west. The War Apart - Part I begins the series, followed by The War Ahead - Part II, and soon The War Beyond - Part III.
TJ Johnson's latest book, Chapter & Verse, Crosswords And Other Puzzles, Genesis Book Two, is the second part of a puzzle series. It covers Genesis from Chapters 26 through 50, and includes a few puzzles that weren't fully reviewed in the first book, which encompassed Genesis chapters 1 through 25. Many Bible Crossword books present clues which are located in various verses located throughout the entire Bible. This prompts a person solving these puzzles to repeatedly search from one verse in one book to other verses in different books, Old and New Testaments. This can be a little unsettling, unless the person already knows the answer. The uniqueness of TJ's books is that her puzzles are designed to review information taken directly from specific assigned chapters and verses. Further, each puzzle concentrates on a particular Bible story, including verses that apply to the situation being depicted, ergo, the title of the series, Chapter & Verse. These books actually promise to help you review and sharpen your knowledge about a particular circumstance in Bible history which may be covered in one chapter, or several chapters. TJ says that you may think you know scripture that you read several days ago, several weeks ago, or even years before. However, it's recommended that you review the content often because it's so easy to forget some of the details. These puzzles can be used as an alternative or addition for your personal Bible study, or even for group Bible study. They've been used successfully in presentation of Bible lessons during Sunday school classes that TJ teaches. She assures the puzzle lover that even though some are easy and some are challenging, they all provide a degree of fun as you study the Bible.

They were opposites in talent, height, scoring, rebounding, writing, typing, and designing, but the attraction happen, and fate took an interesting turn. Though the trend today is for fast romance, quick break-ups, and instant heartache, they were determined to beat the odds for true love, by overcoming their secret relationship in the giant world of ardent fans and mammoth media coverage. It is a fun story that'll make you laugh, cheer, scream, and applaud as the team seeks the national championship, while the two boys in love seek nothing less than pure joy
This Book is a serious wake-up call for Mushrooms, Lemmings, and
Ostriches. The deeper problem is that most of us humans would
easily fit into any one or more of those three categories much of
the time. Do you really want to know what's going on, even though
it does not seem to be affecting your source of income, food or
general security, and does not interfere with your recreation or
bad habits?
