Come, discover yourself in the eyes of Love.

Phantom Fathers
Another story about Maggie Barnes and her family. By digging into online genealogy records and talking with their chatty Aunt Lillian, Maggie's children discover the World War II struggles of their paternal grandparents and their silent father, Ross. It's not a story to make kids proud. They find it easier to be critical of their flawed family and assume the next generation will do better. Like an autopsy, Phantom Fathers exposes the problems of this thinking. Soon enough these critical children will be the parents of their own adult children, and they will have their day in court. As Maggie's children discover the trauma that tore through their father's life and the way their grandparents dealt with it--brutal events during World War II, desperate decisions that fractured the family, and a dishonorable emigration to the United States--they wonder if they could have done better under the circumstances. Ross's silence begins to make sense. Most surprising are events that stir the sympathy of disappointed children and open the way to admitting the truth about imperfect ancestors.

The mountain wilderness of her family's home in the Canadian Rockies is all Hannah Grant has ever known. Now at the age of twenty-four, she's on a journey to help her father to find the son he gave up for adoption three decades before. This is Hannah's chance to discover the life she's missed out on so far--and hopefully find a husband along the way. But she certainly doesn't plan to fall for the first man she meets. Years in the cavalry provided Nathaniel Peak with more than his share of violence and adventure. That life behind him, he wants nothing more than to settle down in the beautiful Montana mountains and raise his own stock--in peace.

Hannah can't help but fall in love with the brave Indian child who so desperately needs her, but no matter what, she can't let herself fall for the man whose past choices go against everything she believes in. As the situation grows worse, Hannah and Nathaniel are forced to make a heart-rending decision to save the girl's life. Little do they imagine, the choice they make could spell disaster for them all.

Is the Gospel You Are Being Taught, the True Gospel of Jesus Christ
Many people today talk about Jesus Christ, but they do not understand the complexity of who he is. They talk about him, about the miracles he performed and how you can do the same. They say to get the power of God, you need to do this or that. Have you ever asked your leaders, "What does it mean to be a living soul?" However, to understand the truth about Jesus Christ, you must explore him completely. Have you ever wondered why Jesus only taught about the kingdom of God? Have you ever asked about his family line? What about the connection between Jesus and Adam? Or what does it mean to be the Son of God? Is my Christianity "WOKE," or is the church a hospital for sinners or a sanctuary for saints? This book is designed to have you become a critical thinker about the things you have been taught about the nature and person of the Lord Jesus Christ. The apostle Paul tells us the "study to show yourself approved unto God..." Will you take the challenge to determine, "Is the Gospel you are being taught the true Gospel of Jesus Christ?" Our purpose is for you to do that which Jesus did, ask questions about your faith.
