The one who spent most of his life lying, cheating and posing as a Christian. I was an impostor. A phony. I thought I knew Jesus. I heard all the sermons. I even owned a Bible with my name engraved on the cover. As I said, I was an impostor, and I fooled a lot of people...just not Him! My story is simple.

Book excerpt: What makes an ordinary man, husband, coach, or restaurant owner suddenly wake up one morning and wonder about God. David Stevens was just a regular guy making a living and providing for his wife and family and who loved to spend his weekends with friends having drinks, dancing, and sleeping in on Sunday morning. Dave figured he had plenty of time left to get things right, until the night he had the dream that made him realize that his life could end at any moment before he got things right with God. Daves search brought him to the realization that his life was not about Dave, but it was about God. Dave discovered that God had not just a plan for him but a calling on Daves life to go and tell people about the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Dave went from just an ordinary man to an extraordinary man of God who preaches and teaches about the salvation we can all receive through Jesus Christ. Through the incredible teachings of Christ in the Bible and the testimonies of other godly men, Daves life was transformed from a man centered on what the world said was acceptable to a man who desired on what God said was acceptable. He met men and women whose lives had been changed because of their interaction with Christ through dreams, through life experiences, or through the revelation of Christ. Pastor Dave, as he is now known, shares his journey of coming to Christ through his own experience of meeting the Savior. As he was mentored by other men of God, Pastor Dave began to see the urgent need to share the love, mercy, and grace of surrendering ones life to Christ and sharing that message with his friends and family and finally to others. Minister Bonetta J. Hutson

Download or read book As Nature Made Him written by John Colapinto and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “We should aspire to Colapinto's stellar journalist example: listening carefully to the circumstances of those who are different rather than demanding that they conform to our own.” —Washington Post The true story about the "twins case" and a riveting exploration of medical arrogance, misguided science, societal confusion, gender differences, and one man's ultimate triumph In 1967, after a twin baby boy suffered a botched circumcision, his family agreed to a radical treatment that would alter his gender. The case would become one of the most famous in modern medicine—and a total failure. The boy's uninjured brother, raised as a boy, provided to the experiment the perfect matched control. As Nature Made Him tells the extraordinary story of David Reimer, who, when finally informed of his medical history, made the decision to live as a male. Writing with uncommon intelligence, insight, and compassion, John Colapinto sets the historical and medical context for the case, exposing the thirty-year-long scientific feud between Dr. John Money and his fellow sex researcher, Dr. Milton Diamond—a rivalry over the nature/nurture debate whose very bitterness finally brought the truth to light. A macabre tale of medical arrogance, it is first and foremost a human drama of one man's—and one family's—amazing survival in the face of terrible odds.

Bailey, who wants absolutely nothing to do with her new stepmother.

And that Bailey just may hold the key to figuring out Owen’s true identity—and why he really disappeared. Hannah and Bailey set out to discover the truth.
