In book # 7 of the 'idiot spy' series, there is the usual-good news and bad news The good news is that there would be no further legal actions to surreptitiously defraud the Aborigines of lands that are rich in natural resources. The bad news is that the group remains in danger because of the Carbon Factor formula and the Sarge's cousin, Walter. Walter is the source of evil that is attempting to annihilate everyone allied with the Sarge. Only divine intervention can help the group. The choices for consideration are epic in that there is no good resolution-should they sell the formula to a country that hates America for billons, and subsequently be without a country-or turn it over to their government and politicians and watch the creation of another weapon in its arsenal to wage wars? Or perhaps they should attempt to destroy the very essence of the formula, publicly, once again No matter the selection; many will die but new alliances will be formed.
In book # 8 of the series, the group continues to expand as a result of the single men earnestly seeking meaningful relationships. A few of the guys find unadulterated love and passion, and others find abject betrayal. The group plays a significant role in managing, monitoring, securing, and organizing the diamond and gold mines discovered on historically Aboriginal land and designated as such after a series of long court battles. This soon makes all Aboriginal people in Australia rich. As word spreads around the world that a bunch of Aboriginal people own the rights to land that has diamonds lying around for the picking, unsavory characters start looking for an easy payday to arrive. Through legal manipulations, intimidation, beatings and murder, group after group make this one-way venture to take what belongs to the Aboriginal people. Ben Beckmire's group won't accept any of those machinations and, therefore, as a result of their mindset-the number of bodies waiting on them in Hades grows incrementally. Diamonds, plus gold, divided by cash truly equals treachery
In book # 9 of the 'idiot spy' series, and at one of the most prestigious and elite sporting events ever held, a device is detonated that will attract the attention of the entire world. At the National Basketball Association's Hall of Fame (NBA-HOF) inductions in Springfield, Massachusetts, the Carbon Factor, or some derivative of it, is unleashed upon the innocent attendees and the community. Thousands of unsuspecting people are consumed by this new monstrous and deadly weapon, the same weapon that the 'idiot spy' allegedly had in his possession at one point in time. With the expiration of old handlers, new ones arise and attempt to manage and direct the group to targets that are more personal than professional. The gold and diamond mines become magnets for marauding mercenaries, some of whom will get a chance to see and touch the booty, but never live to enjoy it.
THE POWER OF HUMILITYIf my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14Oftentimes we in the church emphasize what a person can do more than what a person should be. Molding Christ-like character is the most important element in a person's life that determines the trajectory of their talents and influence.Man's character is his fate. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.One of the most important aspects of godly character is humility. God emphasizes it more than any other character trait in the Scriptures, except love. It is the most underrated trait but perhaps the greatest indicator of how far a person will go in life.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." A phrase from the most celebrated speech by American civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr., delivered at a large rally in Washington, D.C., for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963, in which he called for civil and economic rights and an end to racism in the United States to supporters of the civil rights movement. King stressed the importance of nonviolent resistance and vividly painted his vision of a better future for people of all colors in the United States.We are talking about Joseph's dream in this book. The exposition contains Joseph's' beginnings as a dreamer; this leads him into trouble as, out of jealousy, his brothers sell him into slavery to desert merchants, who took him to Egypt. There he is made the servant of a wealthy Egyptian who misunderstands him, and has him thrown into prison. Where he shows his God-given gift by interpreting the dreams of two other prisoners. Eventually, Pharaoh begins to be plagued by dreams, and sends for Joseph, who interprets them and saves Egypt in the process. He is made second in command to Pharaoh, and has most of Egypt's grain stored. Eventually his brothers arrive in Egypt to buy food because of famine, and he must forgive them. Then the dreams that had angered his brothers, were in reality prophecies that had come from God.Don't give up on your dreams, "vision is for an appointed time, though it tarries, wait for it, it must surely come to pass". The enemy did all to abort the dreams of Joseph but he ended up being used by God to fulfil the dreams. Martin Luther had a dream and he was killed because of his dream. 40 years later, Barack Obama a black man was sworn into the white house as the 44th president of the United States of America. Alas The dream came to pass. Who can ever believe that a black man will rule in the white house, a man had a dream and it came to pass. I dare you to dream, it must surely come to pass.

John Stevens Cabot Abbott (September 19, 1805 - June 17, 1877), an American historian, pastor, and pedagogical writer, was born in Brunswick, Maine to Jacob and Betsey Abbott. Early life: He was a brother of Jacob Abbott, and was associated with him in the management of Abbott's Institute, New York City, and in the preparation of his series of brief historical biographies. Dr. Abbott graduated at Bowdoin College in 1825, prepared for the ministry at Andover Theological Seminary, and between 1830 and 1844, when he retired from the ministry in the Congregational Church, preached successively at Worcester, Roxbury and Nantucket, all in Massachusetts. Literary career: Owing to the success of a little work, The Mother at Home, he devoted himself, from 1844 onwards, to literature. He was a voluminous writer of books on Christian ethics, and of popular histories, which were credited with cultivating a popular interest in history. He is best known as the author of the widely popular History of Napoleon Bonaparte (1855), in which the various elements and episodes in Napoleon's career are described. Abbott takes a very favourable view towards his subject throughout. Also among his principal works are: History of the Civil War in America (1863-1866), and The History of Frederick II, Called Frederick the Great (New York, 1871). He also did a forward to a book called Life of Boone by W.M. Bogart, about Daniel Boone in 1876. In general, except that he did not write juvenile fiction, his work in subject and style closely resembles that of his brother, Jacob Abbott.... Benjamin Franklin FRS, FRSE (January 17, 1706 O.S. January 6, 1705] - April 17, 1790) was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Franklin was a renowned polymath and a leading author, printer, political theorist, politician, freemason, postmaster, scientist, inventor, humorist, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the American Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity. As an inventor, he is known for the lightning rod, bifocals, and the Franklin stove, among other inventions. He facilitated many civic organizations, including Philadelphia's fire department and the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League institution. Franklin earned the title of "The First American" for his early and indefatigable campaigning for colonial unity, initially as an author and spokesman in London for several colonies. As the first United States Ambassador to France, he exemplified the emerging American nation.Franklin was foundational in defining the American ethos as a marriage of the practical values of thrift, hard work, education, community spirit, self-governing institutions, and opposition to authoritarianism both political and religious, with the scientific and tolerant values of the Enlightenment. In the words of historian Henry Steele Commager, "In a Franklin could be merged the virtues of Puritanism without its defects, the illumination of the Enlightenment without its heat." To Walter Isaacson, this makes Franklin "the most accomplished American of his age and the most influential in inventing the type of society America would become." Franklin became a successful newspaper editor and printer in Philadelphia, the leading city in the colonies, publishing the Pennsylvania Gazette at the age of 23.He became wealthy publishing this and Poor Richard's Almanack, which he authored under the pseudonym "Richard Saunders". After 1767, he was associated with the Pennsylvania Chronicle, a newspaper that was known for its revolutionary sentiments and criticisms of the British policies. He pioneered and was first president of Academy and College of Philadelphia which opened in 1751 and later became the University of Pennsylvania. He organized and was the first secretary of the American Philosophical Society and was elected president in 1769. ....
