'The Rabbi' is a biography of Jesus Christ intended to present a more accurate depiction of His life than what is commonly believed by church laity in our times. Human as we are, each nationality and culture have a tendency toward making Jesus in their own image and after their own culture rather than seeing Him for who He truly was and understanding the culture in which He lived. Those who have the most accurate picture of who Jesus was and what He was truly like during His earthly incarnation are Bible scholars who search more deeply into His life than does the average church lay person. However, these more accurate understandings of Christ are mostly presented in scholarly works which only fellow scholars and seminarians can best comprehend. This again leaves the average church person out in the cold when it comes to getting a more accurate picture of the Messiah.'The Rabbi' will greatly help the church laity's understanding of Jesus Christ, as well as the people, places and events surrounding His life. It is presented in novel form which is easily readable, and includes the gospel record together with extra-Biblical 'gap fillers' that are more likely scenarios in the progression of Christ's life than are the many traditional but inaccurate beliefs. In some cases where no Biblical or historical documentation was available, speculation has been unavoidable and in other cases where there is disagreement among scholars, the seeming best scenario has been applied.What is sure is the average church laity member will find, probably to their surprise, many of their long held beliefs about the life of Christ are quite simply erroneous. This is largely due to periodic Biblical mistranslations from the original Greek to the English language, in addition to translators not selecting more accurate meanings of certain Greek words than what appears in English language Bibles. The story also includes full use of Hebrew, Greek, Latin and Aramaic names of persons and places within the gospels rather than their English translation counterparts. Though not a scholarly work itself, the story does offer gleanings from the writings of several Bible scholars, historians and commentators from around the world. Its novel format expresses probable attitudes and emotions of its characters not otherwise conveyed in the English language gospels, but does absolutely no violence whatsoever to the scripture. This is an enjoyable, inspiring, as well as insightfully educational book that, among its presentation of many little known facts among church laity, will draw the hearts of it's readers closer to the wonderful Savior of the world, Jesus Christ.

This story starts in the year 1846, when local folks sought to establish a railroad and train service to ship goods in and out of their counties, in order to bring prosperity to the citizens. Central Indiana was thought to have an unlimited supply of hardwoods, a necessary product for the building of America. The railroad faced many hardships and went through several owners before being absorbed by the Big-Four RR. Co. It was then taken over by the New York Central RR Co, which merged with the Pennsylvania RR. Co. in 1968. That Penn-Central RR Co. was the final owner and shut the small Indiana railroad down in 1973. The story contains information about the construction, maintenance, and all operations during the 127 year life span of this small railroad. Accompanying information and stories of associated enterprises and the people involved are included. The way in which everyday life and events in America affected the operations are also within. Interviews with twenty-two individuals involved with this railroad are included. They contain interesting facts and details of everyday life around the railroad, which cannot be found in other writings. This account is written with intent that the non-railroad person can read, understand, and learn about the railroad almost as well as those familiar with railroading.
Society is in the grips of a devastating pandemic. Individuals, and culture as a whole, are being overwhelmed by an epidemic of ills they are unable to understand and are struggling to deal with. The symptoms are everywhere: in the huge drug crisis, exploding domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assaults, rage and violent murderous activity which is ravaging culture. It is manifest in the flood of depression, despair, mania, fear, hopelessness and suicides which characterize people and society today. While many in society, at all kinds of levels, are engaging in forums, meetings, conversations and various proposals to pin point the cause and find a solution; it is all proving futile. The failure to find a solution is because they do not understand the source. Culture is blind, and so is being blindsided. There is something far more sinister and deadly at work than is generally known or understood. We need to get to the real source to find a solution. The source and solution is the subject of; "The Devil's Best-Kept Secret".
