Jesus said He came not to bring peace, but to divide us one against another, in His name. Are we surprised then, the world has known only war and division since His coming? Whether they believed Him or not, those who crucified Him thought His death would settle His influence. His resurrection proved them wrong. Not long from now, they will lift the Holy Spirit on the cross. Peace at last will reign when the Great Divider has no place in the One World Church, known simply as the Faith. Might a second crucifixion accomplish what the first did not? We who are the Body of Christ, will we answer His resurrection call to live in faith?

CARNAGE - a Tony Petrocelli Mystery Twelve days before Christmas small town detective Tony Petrocelli is called to process a murder suicide. When he and his partner, Michelle Baxter, enter the crime scene they discover some of the evidence points instead to a multiple murder. Who would want to kill one of these family members?

Is it a mob hit straight from the annals of the Godfather? An act of retribution for a business deal gone bad? Or is it the fury of a spurned lover? A mystery person attempting to cover their tracks? In Tony's quest for evidence, long held secrets from his past come to the fore. Secrets that threaten to derail his romantic interest in Brooke, who keeps watch over his teen daughter Brianna. The clues the detective duo uncover lead in all directions. In the end it seems the perpetrator of this crime might get away with murder.

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord, ' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness ' Mt 7:21-23.Would Jesus give such a warning if there were no way to heed it? And if we should respond, can we have His assurance that when we come before Him at that narrow heavenly gate, He will know us?That was my desire. I prayed to know now that I will be known then. I began a search for a single verse I never needed to find. God's answer was far more clear and certain If you desire to attain authentic, unshakable, undeniable, absolute, rock solid assurance of faith, you must ask of the Father, through His Spirit, in His Son's name.God's answer is given as we follow Christ, led by His Spirit. Only as we seek do we find. This is my search. I pray you will ask God to make it yours.

Bedeviled by false leads and attempts to scuttle her investigation, she homes in on a killer who checks her every move.

Nazi Submarines? Life-and-death battles with huge rats? The Cuban Missile Crisis? The assassination of JFK? These are not the predictable topics you'd typically associate with a book that appears to be about cleaning up toxic, abandoned industrial sites, urban redevelopment, economic growth, and job creation. But if your name is Bob White, they're all part of an improbable journey from naive farm boy, to Cold War-era U.S. Marine, to the executive directorship of the Redevelopment Authority of the County of Bucks. He's been referred to as "a beefy, fast-talking construction expert," a "larger-than-life visionary," "a superstar in economic development," and numerous other glowing accolades by Bucks County's press, politicians, and redevelopment and real estate industry executives. There's good reason for that: During Bob White's tenure at the helm of Bucks County's Redevelopment Authority, more than 50 large-scale, transformative projects were completed and over 20,000 jobs were saved or generated in the process. Dozens of environmentally contaminated, blighted buildings-relics from the county's past glory years as a major East Coast manufacturing center-were replaced by beautiful parks, sparkling office complexes, research centers, upscale residential communities, new roadways, and a thriving deepwater port.Repurposing the Past is HGTV on an industrial scale. In addition to Bob's unique and inspiring story, this new and unique book gives you a ringside seat to several dozen of his most significant, far-reaching projects. More than 80 photos provide a before and after look at each site, along with a narrative depicting its history, the environmental challenges and remediations involved, and the demolitions, budgets, grants, redevelopment plans, and community and political participation that helped Bucks County boldly step into the 21st century.Whether you're a student or a professional in the fields of environmental sciences, economic development, and urban studies, or you're simply looking to read a unique, inspiring story, Repurposing the Past will prove to be a page turner.
