A Prayer for the Devil by Dale Allan, a winner in three categories of the National Indie Excellence Book Awards

Did Dale Allan's New Political Thriller Foretell of the Terrorist Attacks in Boston?

The Similarities are Uncanny!

Even though Allan's Boston-based novel was written before the marathon terrorist attacks, the similarities with the tragic real-life events of that day are hard to ignore. 

Allan states, "As soon as the bombing took place, my phone started ringing and I began receiving tons of text messages from friends, family members and fans."

A Prayer For The Devil has been described as a fast-paced political thriller. It follows the life of a priest whose brother is killed in a terrorist attack in Boston, but the similarities don't stop there. The book deals with the dark side of radical Islam, with a fictional terrorist who attended American schools and even the worshiped at the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center. 

 Some call it 'sizzling' and others hail it an 'important cultural marker'. In short, Dale Allan's debut novel has done a whole lot more than simply test the literary waters. Its cultural significance adds weight to what could be the most powerful new release this year. 

Allan's novel is proving a magnet for 2013's best book awards, even winning multiple genres in the same competition. Depicting the compelling and thought-provoking intersection between faith and justice, 'A Prayer for the Devil' is allowing the author to stake his claim as a literary force to be reckoned with.

But let the awards do the talking. To date, 'A Prayer for the Devil' has been a winner in three categories of the National Indie Excellence Book Awards, awarded Silver for Best Thriller and Suspense in the Book Of The Year Awards by Foreword Reviews, achieved finalist positions in two categories of the International Book Awards and even a 'Top 10' fiction place at the Paris Book Festival. Due to an overwhelming call from readers to make this a movie, and preliminary queries from Hollywood movie producers, Dale Allan has just completed the screenplay for this exciting tale.

Synopsis:
Twin brothers Luke and Aaron Miller could not lead more different lives. Aaron is a rising political star who manages the campaign of a man many believe will be the nation's next president. Luke, on the other hand entered the priesthood. When Aaron and the candidate he supports are killed in a bombing at a presidential stump speech, the Miller family's core is destroyed. Fear of a terrorist threat grips the nation, but the FBI and the press seem more focused on the death of a presidential candidate than on the other innocent victims like Aaron. Suddenly, Luke begins to feel the lure of a vengeance that is stronger than the bond of faith.

As he falls deeper into the abyss of political intrigue that surrounded his brother's mysterious professional life, Luke is tempted to break his promise to God and reassess his own sense of right and wrong. Luke's comfortable life in Boston collides with the faraway world of the Middle East as he sets out on a journey to unravel the truth behind Aaron's murder. Will he take an eye for an eye? Luke's journey through his own darkness propels him to a shocking ending that will leave readers breathless.

As the author explains, his narrative is unintentionally but powerfully timely, "This book reflects the current climate we live in via a suspenseful plot line with many unexpected twists and turns.  It shows the sharp contrasts between moderate Muslims and the far reaching aspects of Sharia Law," says Allan. Continuing, "The subject matter is resonating very strongly with readers. We can't ignore the current debate between faith and justice, so hopefully my narrative will give readers something to think about well after they finish the book."

PR - Christian Book Release - Who's Your Father? by Robert Bernecker of Waxahachie, Texas

For Immediate Release

CBM Christian Author Press Release

Robert Bernecker of Waxahachie, Texas releases Who's Your Father? – a revolutionary book that challenges readers to develop a radically different perspective of God. Bernecker's new work is an amazing eye-opener for Christians everywhere. Rich in Scripture, and written in a well-informed and easy-to-understand manner, this book will powerfully transform the reader's relationship with their heavenly Father—this transformation is ushered in by the pivotal realization that the church of our day is laboring under severely misplaced boundaries which it has put on both God's sovereignty and His loving involvement in our lives. This book is a compelling cry for the church to return to the high view of God that was held by the Reformers and the champions of the faith from past years; in fact, Bernecker reinforces the solid scriptural foundation from which he writes with many relevant quotes from great Christian leaders and thinkers such as Spurgeon, Augustine, Edwards, Luther, Tyndale, Lewis, and many others. The book invites all to experience the incredible benefits which inevitably flow from correctly understanding the true God who is revealed in the Bible, showing readers how they can truly rest in God's loving purpose for their lives, and it makes plain the certainty with which they can trust God to fulfill His purpose.

As a lifetime student of the Bible who has been deeply involved in his church and ministries for over thirty years, this recently retired CEO of a multi-million dollar company brings the unique perspective of a layman to bear on weighty biblical issues in a way that make it easy for all to understand. His non-theologian's approach to difficult theological issues is refreshing and inspiring. Bernecker's lifetime experiences and intensive study of the Bible have opened his eyes to the inseparable connection between God's sovereignty and God's love, and he explains brilliantly how much of the church of our day misses this vital link. He shares this biblical viewpoint in a new release that is both unique and thought-provoking, a book that carefully challenges old thought patterns and preexisting notions of who God is and how He works in our world today. New and mature believers alike will come to know God as never before, and they will develop a wonderfully satisfying relationship with their loving Father that was previously unimaginable. Developed for either individual reflection or a weekly study group, this new book is an essential tool for building a biblically correct perspective of God.

Why There Is Suffering In This Fallen World - Suffer the Slings and Arrows: A Dialogue of Job

Multi-published author Wayne Wilson takes a look at Job fifteen years after his sufferings in his new book Suffer the Slings and Arrows: A Dialogue of Job. Relying heavily upon scripture, the author creates a fiction tale of the character Job and his friends. Building from the foundation that "time heals all wounds" the author poignantly gives a historical background, spanning the landscape of history, to tell the meaning of Jobs sufferings, answering the questions as to why there is suffering in this fallen world, giving hope and pointing others to the sacrificial offering of the Cross.

Wayne Wilson's writings attempt to depict life in a fallen world where God is more interested in our character than our comfort. It is an attempt to make the Good News of the Incarnation relevant to the Westerner who wallows in comfort as well as the suffering billions in the so-called third world. The relevance comes in the fact that this is a fallen world with more inherent lows than highs, yet the Incarnation, i.e the fact that God visited earth in bodily form to live and die on our behalf, gives meaning to these lows and the highs of life. And it is this meaning that infuses life with joy and purpose. Furthermore, it is the author's belief that a sacramental approach to life and worship is the best way to implement this understanding.

"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you." Confessions by St. Augustine.

The Wonderful Work of God That Comes From Justification

Justification by Faith Alone in Christ Alone by Christian author Grace Dola Balogun is an uplifting book that encourages the Body of Christ to persevere through various hardships and trials because the hope of Christ does not disappoint, nor does His salvation by grace alone fail.  The one requirement to salvation is faith in Jesus Christ as the author and finisher of our faith.  Grace Dola Balogun encourages readers to come up higher and gain a new perspective that is biblically based on subjects such as faith, grace, salvation, redemption, sanctification and justification.  All are revealed from a biblical foundation, displaying the truth of the Gospel.  Christ won for us on the Cross justification by faith alone.  The author thereby reveals the wonderful work of God that comes from justification that produces the fruits of the spirit in the believer.

By discussing such topics as: interpretation of faith, God's work of justification, grace, redemption, Abraham's faith, Christ's obedience to the Father, the peace of God, holy faith that produces works, no faith equaling no good works, the results of good works, the fruit of faith, post reformer teachings on faith, examples of faith, living by faith – not by sight, faith, Christ, sanctification and glorification, Christ as our hope of glory and the gift of grace - the author has given a comprehensive study on the matter of justification by faith in Christ alone.

Once one comes to Christ, they are a new creation in Christ.   This new creation experiences a remission of sins and a righteousness that is imputed from our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ to the new believer.  We must understand the justification that has taken place that enables the Christian to enter into eternity.  All have come short of the glory of God and all go their own way; we can praise the Lord for this justification that comes by faith alone in Christ alone.  Hallelujah! Amen.

Title: How Modern Science Exposes Atheism

By: George Chernish, Ph.D.

ISBN #978-1490950075

Review Date: August 3, 2013

A Christian Book Review

10.0 out of 10.0 Stars

How Modern Science Exposes Atheism by Ph.D. George Chernish is a remarkable read "confirming the Book of books" – the Bible.  Addressing and, "Exposing Atheism's dogma of deceit about the Bible," the author poignantly writes a well-informed and much researched book derived from years as a scientist and Bible scholar.  The book unveils evidence supported by true science that will in fact bring an overwhelming confirmation that the Bible is truly a book written by God by men inspired of God.  Answering many questions, such as, "Was there really a worldwide flood?  And, "Where is the Garden of Eden located?"  This amazing read keeps the reader engaged throughout, giving firm evidence and offering a well-rounded discussion on the subject of science supporting the Bible. 

This incredible book will take the reader through a list of A to Z in regards to the sciences from Anthropology to Zoology and begins with a preface that is impressive, as it speaks of the Bible as the most published book of all time throughout all of history since the invention of the printing press.  Full of history and scriptures, the author has given a foundation that substantiates the Bible's claims, that infact, God created the Earth, man and everything contained therein. 

This is a fascinating and fast-paced read that will give the average Christian knowledge to cordially address atheistic claims regarding the Bible being a "fairy tale" or "written by a bunch of men."  A highly recommended and informative read that will enlighten even the most critical of skeptics.

Find new purpose and renewed faith as you gain a better understanding of God's eternal purpose for His Children in Beyond Heaven – A New Earth

Beyond Heaven-A New Earth by pastor and evangelist, Joseph Keibler, dispels many misconceptions concerning eternal life, Heaven, Hell, the first resurrection and the new Earth that is to come.  This book is an incredible journey presenting an eternal perspective through God's Word of the glorious destiny awaiting believers in Christ.  Not only will one discover that as God's chosen people they have a calling and purpose in the Kingdom of God on Earth, but also beyond Heaven and this Earth.  One will discover that Heaven is not the final destination for believers in Christ. 

Rich with scripture, the author builds a firm foundation from God's Word, presenting to readers a challenging and thought provoking read giving concise details on the aspects of eternal life.  Engaging and informative, the author gives readers an inside look into his own life that led him to this firm stance regarding salvation and eternal life.  These eternal viewpoints and rewards are discussed in depth, giving understanding to believers and enabling one to live a victorious life here on Earth, while looking forward to the eternal destiny in the Kingdom of God. 

The glorious future with God in His Kingdom will ignite a passionate faith, birthing a stirring and awakening in the reader's spirit to look beyond their current circumstances, and propel them to find purpose and new meaning in life by looking ahead to their future in Christ.   

Joseph Keibler had a bona fide, born-again Christian experience in 1967. He has pastored two churches; taught at a Bible college; ministered in Mexico, Europe, India and China; and served as a missionary evangelist to Nigeria, West Africa. He has seen the door of Heaven literally open and God sweep fields of lost souls into His kingdom like a mighty wind, and seen and experienced miracles that few people are privileged to witness. He is now retired and spends time writing and encouraging others to find that narrow gate and straight way of truth.

He is what is described as both a literalist and an apologist. As a literalist, he believes a person should take the Scriptures literally, except where there is evidence that another meaning should be applied, such as an allegory or a parable. He believes in studying Scripture without having a predetermined belief about its meaning, and letting it speak to you, rather than speaking your beliefs into it.

As an apologist, he writes in the defense of the things that are so clear that there can be no misunderstanding of what they mean, not to put forth some new truth. Those things that remain in silhouettes will be unveiled in their proper time, when the Light of Heaven appears and makes them plain. Upon those Scriptures that are clear, he has built and defends a belief in an eternal destiny…Beyond Heaven.

Calming the Storm Within has all the makings of a classic, but for now I recommend making it your personal and valued companion."

Lee Powell, Senior Pastor at CedarCreek Church in Toledo, OH added, "I have read countless books on this subject matter in preparation for delivering sermons and I honestly didn't expect to be impressed, but impressed I was! In fact, with Jim's permission I may use some of his highlights for sermon notes. I found the book to be: fresh, thought provoking, challenging, emotionally moving and encouraging. In addition, the way it's written makes it easy to make immediate life applications."

Calming the Storm Within: How to Find Peace in this Chaotic World is available at Amazon, in Kindle Edition and at other fine online bookstores.  Lange has also included some great free resources at Calming The Storm Within.

Jim Lange also serves as Chapter President of Truth at Work, where he facilitates monthly roundtable meetings with Christian business and ministry leaders in which they act as a board of advisors to one another in helping each other to grow professionally, personally and spiritually. Jim is also the founder and President of Five Feet Twenty – an organization that assists doctors and business owners in helping those they serve to grow closer to Jesus (delivered through a customized monthly magazine). He resides in Lambertville, Michigan with his wife and three children.

In the News - The Button Legacy by Ginger Marcinkowski

The Button Legacy Book Description:

"My Dearest Emily...

When you were a little girl, a change occurred in you. You lost a piece of yourself somewhere....But when you were here in Plaster Rock, you bloomed. The stories we told with these buttons made you smile. With your smile came hope.

Repeat the stories you've been told to your own children, never forgetting that God was there in every situation, in every story held inside this box..."

Growing up, Emily Evans of Run, River Currents had always shared a special understanding with her grandfather, John Polk, even when she couldn't fully see beyond the darkness of her father's abuse. Yet John looked to the future in faith to what his God could do.

Years after her grandfather's death, the unexpected delivery of the decorated tin, still brimming with odd-colored buttons, unlocks the joyous memories and lets Emily realize she has finally discovered the secret her grandfather promised lay within the stories of the worn button box.

Told through the eyes of a godly grandfather, The Button Legacy laces together a godly heritage and the power of one man's prayers, offering a lesson of how God's grace can be seen even in the simplest thing--a button.

From the Author:

Instructors of Creative Writing said, "The first book any new writer pens is the book that had to be written." I now fully understand those words. For three gut-wrenching years, my debut book, Run, River Currents, begged to be put to paper. My intent was to write a humorous biography about my mother, a woman who raised a boat-load of children on her own. But for some reason, I could not make the stories resonate, so the humor turned to heartbreak as the story was released from me...coaxed by a writer whose own heart somehow understood the story that was within.

The Button Legacy tells the much happier "rest of the story," as well as the background of my godly grandfather, whom God used in Emily's life to ultimately lead her to Himself. Lacing together a godly heritage and the power of one man's prayers, The Button Legacy offers a lesson of how God's grace can be seen even in the simplest thing—a button.

Author Bio:

Ginger Marcinkowski's debut novel, Run, River Currents, was published in August 2012 and was a 2012 semi-finalist in the ACFW Genesis Awards, also winning an honorable mention in the New England Book Festival in the Spiritual category.

A Call to Love - New Book Release

Title: A Call to Love

By: Rebecca Sundberg

ISBN#978-1449786618

Review Date: April 23, 2013

Christian Book Review

9.9 out of 10.0 stars

A Call to Love by multi-published Christian author, Rebecca Sundberg, is a heart-warming novel displaying God's mighty hand and the power of Isaiah 58 (giving to others in their need), while readily revealing the theme that, "…all things work out for good" (paraphrase of Romans 8:28) throughout. 

How many of us are so busy, we don't pay attention to anyone else's needs, but our own?  The author has written a poignant novel of a young woman named Maddy, whose life has not been so easy as a single mom.  Yet, through her trials, Maddy has trusted God and has prayed that the Lord's love might pour through her to others.  She has no idea how the Lord will answer this prayer, but realizes the magnitude of this prayer as she is called to not only minister love and support throughout her hurting community, but also when she is called to aid a woman named Isobelle.

You will not want to put down the pages of this fast-paced and intriguing novel of real life drama unfolding before your eyes.  This story is heart-warming and will touch the soul of everyone who reads it.  It's a story of triumph over trials and displays that the Lord is good.  The book invokes a sense of hope for putting your trust in God and encourages all to come into a relationship with the Lord. 

This is a wonderful, intriguing drama that will leave a smile on your face.
