Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1896, an argument over a butter churn resulted in the death of Katrina "Katy" Baumli, a thirty-five-year-old wife and mother of three young children. In 1910, poker losses resulted in the murders of Oda Hubbell, his wife Clara, and their two small children, as well as the burning of the family home. What did these two crimes, fourteen years apart, have in common? They shared a common acquaintance with Hezekiah Rasco, a handsome, intelligent, charismatic man from Nodaway County, Missouri. Hezekiah "Hez" Rasco committed his first murder in 1896, at the age of fifteen. The sheer brutality of Katy Baumli's death shocked the people of Arkoe, the quiet farming community near where they lived. The community was stunned again a week later when Hez Rasco confessed to the crime. Ultimately, it would take three trials to get at the truth and secure justice for Katy and her family, and to restore the peace of the community. In late 1897, Hez Rasco began his first prison sentence in "The Walls," the Missouri State Penitentiary at Jefferson City. There he lived the life of a model prisoner and learned a trade. Hez gained his freedom in 1905, but it was short-lived. He returned to The Walls in October of that same year to serve a two-year sentence for grand larceny, after being found in possession of a stolen horse in Buchanan County, Missouri. Upon release in 1907, Hez Rasco made his way back to Nodaway County to resume his former life as a farmer, helping out on his father Henry's farm near Guilford, Missouri. On November 19, 1910, after a long day's work, Hez cleaned himself up and went to Guilford in search of some entertainment. There he met up with two acquaintances, Oda Hubbell and Charles Wallace. The men went to an empty boxcar parked on an unused side track at the Guilford depot and began to play poker. Eventually Hez and Oda were left to play until dawn. Hez's losses to Oda during the course of the game resulted in an argument the next morning. Oda refused to acquiesce to Hez's demand to continue playing. Instead, Oda went home that Sunday morning to be with his family. Hez went looking for a gun. By seven o'clock that Sunday evening, the Hubbell family was dead. By ten o'clock, their home was ablaze. Within twelve hours, Hez Rasco, age 30, was under arrest for their murders. But, was he guilty of murder and arson or was he a convenient suspect for predisposed minds? Only the evidence and a jury of twelve men could answer that question. Hezekiah Rasco: Child of Woe - Man of Sorrow recounts the story of Hez's life, as evidenced through available records.

Book excerpt: On what are you basing this confidence of yours? Have you ever wanted a peek at the devil’s playbook? This six-week Bible study does exactly that, as revealed to us through Isaiah Chapter 36. Utilizing the framework of the king of Assyria’s threats to Judah’s King Hezekiah, this spellbinding Bible study delves into the enemy’s attack strategies and our best defensive tactics, while expounding on God’s purposes and character. This Bible study does a line by line examination of Isaiah Chapter 36 analyzing each statement from the enemy and either provides pragmatic ways to refute the accusations or else demonstrates the fallacy in the enemy’s logic through word studies and other scriptural references. The six weeks of study are grouped into Introduction, Initial Attack, Temptation, The Fall, Choosing to Stand, and Deliverance. Join Liz Lyon-Hall as she: • Delves into subjects such as how God uses Satan for His purposes, suicide, atheism/agnosticism, and the consequences of sin. • Reveals the devil’s weapons including his use of shame, secrecy, doubt, deception, and other strategies targeting Christians today. • Discusses practical ways to counter these attacks. • Encourages stimulating conversations in small group study. God’s character shines through this study to encourage and enlighten readers to fight the good fight.
