Summary

The heart finds its way when one least expects it--even in the most unforgiving frontiers. 
 
Invited by a friend to trek west and help establish the newly formed town of Cheyenne, Edward Vogel is prepared to leave the haunting memories of his wife and son's deaths behind him. The only problem is the corrupt new railroad town wants family men who can establish law and order, and desperation leads Edward to his friend Marybeth with a proposition of marriage. 
 
After her father's death leaves her with no means of support, Marybeth Kruger is in danger of having her two-year-old half sister taken from her. So when Edward Vogel, the widower husband of her late best friend, offers her a marriage of convenience to escape both their troubles, she has no choice but to accept. 
 
Life in Cheyenne is fraught with danger, but will this arrangement be enough to save Edward and Marybeth from the pasts they tried to escape? Or will life with each other put them--and their hearts--in more danger than ever?

    A Case For Salvation is a comprehensive Biblically based experience of redemption, identity, and the relentless pursuit of grace. It offers a deeply immersive journey through Scripture, personal testimony, and theological insight - designed to awaken hearts and challenge minds.

    With clarity and conviction, the author builds a compelling case for salvation as both a divine gift and a personal invitation.

    Whether you are a seeker, skeptic, or seasoned believer, A Case For Salvation offers fresh perspective and practical wisdom. It speaks to the lonely, the broken, and the disillusioned - those who wonder if grace is still available, if God still speaks, and if change is truly possible. 
    This edition includes a free downloadable 16 lesson workbook complete with questions, answers, and chapter summaries ideal for personal study or group settings. It is more than a book – it is a spiritual roadmap for anyone longing to move from guilt to grace, from religion to relationship, and from questioning to confident faith.

    Half My Life - How Jesus...

    How can I introduce my life without tipping my hand to enough detail that you will not need to the rest of this book? I am thinking this as I write the Introduction: Take Two. I wrote so much, and that which I wrote, I absolutely loved, but it was too much, it tipped my hand, it was a spoiler of the story to come. So I hit the delete key to write a simple message instead. 
    Within the pages of this book I will tell you my story. It’s a story of a latch-key kid born out of time; a boy who lived a latch-key life before that term was coined by social scientists concerned about all these kids coming home from school to an empty house. I am here to say that their fears are justified. Indeed, I agree that idle time is the Devil’s plaything, and my life shows how unsupervised children can become rotten to the core. I reject that we are blank slates waiting for moral input. If I was unsure of that as a child, I am convinced of it now, as I look back! 
    I do not mean to suggest that growing up with supervision will prevent us from being sinners, nor that every unsupervised child will grow up as I did, but rather, I want to show you the impact untempered sin has in a young boy’s life. I want to show you that growing up without God leads to a life of sin. I want to show you that sin begets sin. I want you to learn that following God is truly the most important thing you can do!

  • It's Time to Question HOW Christians Believe - Instead of Another Debate About WHAT Christians Believe - cover

    It's Time to Question HOW...

    Luther R. Palmer III

    “A bold and thought-provoking exploration that flips the script on centuries of debate about Christianity, challenging readers to reconsider not just what they believe, but how they come to believe it.”  
    “A compelling and deeply insightful journey into how beliefs are formed, exposing the hidden flaws in faith-based thinking.” 
    Many debates focus on what Christians believe, but it's time to question how Christians believe. A controlled, double-blind, randomized trial is a complex process developed over centuries to counter the influence of human bias. Christian practice, by contrast, hasn’t changed in thousands of years. Today’s believers still access God through tools like prayer, scripture, faith, miracles, prophecy, and spiritual discernment — just like their ancient counterparts. 
    The kindest, most compassionate Christian and the cruelest, most exclusionary one both trust these tools — the how of Christianity — yet each sees the other as proof of how vulnerable those tools are to bias, fear, tradition, and personal desire. Despite this, few discuss whether these tools actually produce reliable beliefs. This is that discussion. 
    Does Christianity have a problematic how? 
    Luther Palmer shares his journey out of Christianity—not due to trauma, but from a thoughtful examination of the tools used to form religious belief. Drawing from personal stories, philosophical reflection, and years of honest questioning, Palmer unpacks the role of faith, personal experience, and spiritual practices that often go unexamined. This book isn’t just a critique of Christianity. It’s a challenge to all of us to examine how we come to believe anything at all.

    Instrument of Peace -...

    Lord, Make Me an Instrument of Thy Peace. 
     
     
      
    Thus begins the beloved prayer of the Italian friar Saint Francis of Assisi, which well expresses his sentiments as a preacher of peace, love, and unity. Author and anti-apartheid activist Alan Paton drew upon the Prayer of Saint Francis to write Instrument of Peace (originally titled Instrument of Thy Peace) while his wife Dorrie lay dying of emphysema. Among many others, Paton said he wrote this book for those who wish with all their hearts to be better, purer, less selfish, more useful; who do not wish to be cold in love, and who know that being cold in love is perhaps the worst sin of them all; who wish to keep their faith bright and burning in a dark and faithless world; and who seek not so much to lean on God as to be the active instrument of His peace. 
     
     
     
    "Sometimes we cannot pray because we are fallen into a melancholy and therefore have for the time lost our hope and our faith and have no one to pray to," Paton wrote. "I am in unrepayable debt to Francis of Assisi, for when I pray his prayer, or even remember it, my melancholy is dispelled, my self-pity comes to an end, my faith is restored, because of this majestic conception of what the work of a disciple should be."
