Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are There: Restoring Churches, People, and Places is a pastoral conversation about creation care. It is a pastoral voice shepherding Christian people in Christian churches towards discipleship that is all the way down to the dirt. In it you will find a pastor with time to talk with you and walk with you so that the fruit of the redemption earned by Jesus' life, death, and resurrection will make a real and substantial difference in your very own backyard. This book is not actually about you; it's about us as local churches. Each local church should care about its place because the church is where God uses the gospel to restore people, and God's restored people restore both people and places. This is what we mean by creation care. You, church, are a gathering of people defined by your faith in Jesus and the dirt you walk on. You are a people sent to that place. This is why it is good news that you are there.

Book excerpt: A heart-warming tale about magic, responsibility, mothers and daughters Eleven-year-old Shelley only leaves her bedroom for two minutes, but when she gets back, there's a real, true-life, lavender-eyed baby on her bed. It's far too noisy, smelly and heavy to be a ghost baby - so whose is it? It can't be her mum's - Shelley would have noticed - but it's not like she's around for Shelley to ask, anyway. She's too busy trying to get her horrible ex-boyfriend Scott ('the Toadstool') back, who Shelley definitely does NOT like as much as her mum does. But someone's got to look after the baby, and give her a name. 'Celeste' sounds good (in fact, it sounds kind of magical) and so Shelley and little Celeste embark on some rather messy adventures, gain some new friends and realise that maybe some wishes can come true after all...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This action adventure Maori warrior period piece begins in 1950s New Zealand as mourners are arriving at a Marae (meeting place) for a funeral. When a young boy shows no respect for the deceased, his great-grandmother, an elder sits him and his two companions down to tell them the story of Aroha and Arapeta, the daughter of a chief and the warrior she loved. The story shifts back to the 1880s, as the old orator tells them how Aroha is wrongfully taken when another chief's son is injured, and how Arapeta must go against his chief and century-old customs to get her back. On his travels to find her, Arapeta meets a ragtag bunch of misfits who rally behind him. The seven pull together using their individual skills and wits in an attempt to defeat an entire village and save Aroha from a life of slavery. This story of young lovers tells of undying devotion, deceit, and the evil that burns inside a man who schemes to make Aroha his own. The Greenstone Princess is also about clashing cultures, the dawning of a new era, and the forging of lifelong friendships. About the Author Raymond A. Porter is a martial arts instructor and writer. He divides his writing time between books, movie scripts, and a regular column in a newspaper. This is his second book. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/RaymondAPorter/

On the verge of a psychotic break, Adam begins to have a recurring dream of his early childhood and the hauntingly rustic town of Mendocino, California, where he grew up. Convinced he has left something behind there, something vital to his present sanity, Adam walks away from his current life to figure out what that is.One evening, out on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Adam has a chance encounter with a mysterious woman, only to later realize that she may be a long forgotten childhood friend.

As Adam awakens to the possibility that his life could be destined for more than a bleak virtual wasteland, he soon finds himself a crucial pawn in a game that pits forces intent on enslaving the human spirit against those few quixotic souls who still search for meaning, beauty, and magic in the world.
