  Ordinary Man An Extraordinary...

  After retiring as a veterinarian, the author had much more time to spend with others, so he related stories of many of the experiences in his life. He was asked by family, friends, and others with whom he had shared if he had recorded these stories. Ernest never wanted to write his life story, but God revealed to him that he should record his experiences and title the book An Ordinary Man, An Extraordinary God. 
  His procrastination to write ended when he had a back fusion with two rods and ten screws which required him to lay on a bone stimulator for four hours a day for six months; and during that time, he was not able to do any physical work. The book would show how God could take a country boy raised on a farm and use him to bring glory to God. Explaining how God used him could encourage others who also thought they were "nobodies" to realize that God could use any person that believed in God and spent time in His Word to walk in the Spirit and be led by the Spirit. 
  The book begins just before Ernest received Jesus as his Lord and Savior and continues showing how, through His Word, the author received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, learned to walk in the Spirit, witnessed about God to others, prayed the prayer of faith for healing, cast out demons, and did other works of God. His walk with God and how he grew in faith is shared chronologically in the book. Now he could understand the groaning of the spirit within a Christian for the day of redemption when he would enter God's presence and be with Jesus for eternity.

  The reason for the great flood becomes the catalyst for a second drowning of the earth 
  In a world forever changed by the Second Great Flood, humanity struggles to rebuild amid the ruins of a drowned Earth. When ancient waters burst forth from the depths, entire continents were consumed, leaving behind scattered islands and submerged cities. Amidst the chaos, a new civilization rises—resilient, determined, and seeking hope in the face of cataclysm. 
  But beneath the surface of this shattered world lies an even darker mystery. As survivors harness new technology and forge a fragile peace, they discover that the ancient fountains of the deep have not truly been extinguished. Unleashed by their awakening, the primal forces threaten to plunge the Earth into chaos once more. 
  Amidst this chaos, a brave group of explorers and warriors confront betrayal, ancient secrets, and the terrifying power of the Nephilim—gigantic beings who once walked the earth and who now threaten to reclaim it. In their fight to expose the truth and prevent history from repeating itself, they face impossible odds, risking everything to ensure that hope endures.

  Her identity is false, but her love for the earl is all too real—and so is the danger that engulfs them both . . . 
  Gypsy fortune-teller Mademoiselle Magda has taken London by storm with her uncanny predictions—and only Lord Kerrigan suspects that she is not what she claims to be.

But lacking her mother's powers, Magda drew the wrong card and made an enemy of the earl, who causes her pulse to race whenever he's near. He sets out to expose her, only to find himself captivated by the beautiful young woman. 
  But when Magda's predictions threaten to expose a villainous plot, she finds herself in mortal danger. Now Magda and Lord Kerrigan must join forces to solve a decade-old murder, and Magda fervently wishes she could indeed predict the future—to see if her deception will cost her a love that promises bliss . . .
