  My name is James Jerome Hankins. My mother, Faldenia, an AMEZ teacher gave me my first name James after St. James who said" if you have faith but don't do any work to help others, you are "nothing". My father, Edward, a Catholic barber gave me my middle name Jerome after St. Jerome who translated the bible from Greek to Latin and is the patron saint of writers. My last name, Hankins, came from my brave slave ancestor, "American Hero" Abraham Galloway. My cousin Abraham Galloway lived only 33 years (1837-1870) but he accomplished so much for our people. His country treated him as a 3rd class piece of property, but he like Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Medgar, Martin and Malcom refused to bow and worship a man -made golden idol. 
  My education started at St. Thomas Catholic private elementary school in Wilmington, NC to Shawtown High school in Lillington, NC to Williston Senior High in Wilmington, NC to North Carolina A&T State University in Greensboro, NC. 
  I have written guest commentary in three great black newspapers, Wilmington Journal, Greater Diversity and The County News. I also post on Facebook at least three times a month. This is my second book. 
  I have served as an Estate Administrator, power of attorney for a family friend, caregiver and court appointed guardian. 
  Last but not least I have been a 98% voter, volunteer register and precinct official in my Democratic party.

  Zion, a unified community of people, has been the focus of prophetic teaching for millennia. Establishing Zion: Foundations for a Millenial Society looks at how Zion will function practically, beyond the personal righteousness of those who live there. It looks at questions like: Who will pick up the garbage and fix the streets? How will poverty be eliminated? In what ways will family life differ? How will organizations and governments change? 
  Dr. Lawrence Walters has devoted his career to. improving local governments. The vision he puts forward is not a distant view of a future Zion; rather, he lays out five foundational principles to guide the efforts of those who actively seek to establish Zion today. he explores how the role of the Church has evolved. Through scripture and professional insights, he outlines an approach for eliminating world poverty. Drawing on prophetic teachings, he identifies the inspired principles that will underpin governance in Zion and illustrates how engaged citizens will influence their communities. 
  Building Zion requires that we create and actively lead our communities and organizations to a higher and holier plane. Establishing Zion: Foundations for a Millenial Society identifies principles and provides guidance on their practical applications. It offers Latter-day Saints a richer, more constructive vision of Zion and what they can do to make it a reality.

  Men's Journal Best Wine Books 2023 and André Simon Food and Drink Book Award Longlist
  "This is the story of how wine brought me back from the dead."
  Thus begins Adam McHugh's transition through the ending of one career—as a hospice chaplain and grief counselor—into the discovery of a new life in wine among the grapevines of the Santa Ynez Valley of California.
  "This is the corkscrewing tale of how I got to Santa Ynez, eventually, and the questions that came up along the way," he continues. "You and I are going to take a long wine tour together on our way there, and we will make plenty of stops for a glass and some local wine history. As you will see, I reached into the old, old story of wine in order to find my new story, which begins, as so many wine love stories do, in the French countryside."
  With warmth and wit, Adam tells the story of what happens when things fall apart and when where you live no longer feels like home. From the south of France to Champagne to the California central coast, the trail winds toward new life and healing through the good gifts of wine, friendship, and a sense of place. Pour a glass and join the adventure.

  An Engaging Rendition of the Prodigal Son Parable for Kids
  In this creative retelling of the parable of the Prodigal Son, the youngest son, Wander, was willing to give up everything for his independence—including a relationship with his father and brother Goodness. With his father's cash in hand, he left for the alluring towns of Perfection, Prosperity, and Popularity. Each new town brought a brief sense of happiness, but eventually, as the excitement wore off, he was overcome by a deepening sense of emptiness. It was then that Wander remembered his father's words, "Wherever you go, my son, I want you to remember that I love you with a never-ending love." 
  The Long Road Home retells this powerful parable in a creative and understandable way for children ages 6–8. As kids hear about Wander's difficult experiences and discuss them with their parents, they will learn joy is not found within themselves or in the world. Instead, children will rediscover the never-ending love of their heavenly Father, who gives them worth, hope, and identity when they put their trust in him. 
  
  - For Children Ages 6–8: Engaging story keeps kids focused on biblical truths 
  - A Retelling of the Prodigal Son: A classic parable told in a fresh and creative way 
  - Influenced by The Pilgrim's Progress: Comparable storyline and tone to the famous novel The Pilgrim's Progress
