The Book of You: Discovering Your God Story by Ericka P Greene

“No matter how your life story may read, God has another story, a true story that was written long before you were even born. Better yet, God wants to co-author that story with you.”

The Book of You is for the woman who has been broken by life, the woman who struggles with what God says about her and what she has experienced, or how she views herself.

The book takes you on a journey through the interwoven stories of five women in the Bible who were broken and discarded yet valued to be included in the lineage of Jesus Christ. Through the pages of their stories and others’ stories, Jesus wants to reconcile the seeming contradiction of your life story and the events that have left you feeling alone, without value or purpose. He wants to reveal your true identity and purpose throughout the pages of your life so that you can stand at the last chapter of your life having become who you are created to be and fulfill what you were created to do.

Are you observing the collapse – or discerning your role in it?

________________________________________

In an age of moral compromise, fractured identity, and silent surrender, Take a Stand: A Look Within confronts a truth many refuse to face:

The instability shaking nations is rooted in the instability within individuals.

This is not a political argument.

It is not cultural commentary.

It is a summons to accountability before God.

Dr. Shanequa E. Wilson exposes the war within – the internal erosion of conviction, the distortion of identity, and the quiet agreements made with fear, culture, and compromise. From generational foundations to modern-day deception, she dismantles false narratives that have shaped minds, weakened families, and diluted spiritual authority.

Through biblical examination, national reflection, and personal confrontation, this work moves beyond observation and into repositioning.

It challenges readers to:

– Examine the internal agreements fueling external chaos

– Discern the spiritual forces influencing societal direction

– Reclaim identity grounded in truth

– Stand with clarity in a time demanding courage

This book is not designed for passive readers.

It is written for those willing to confront themselves before confronting the world.

The battle is not merely around you.

It is within you.

And where you stand internally determines what you will stand for publicly.

Children of Light by CB Anslie

A rabbi with a secret will surrender his life in an incomprehensible battle against evil, while his friend, a priest with a dark past wrestles personal demons. The priest is called upon to prevent divorce and comfort grieving widows as he attempts to unravel the mystery of Masada with its deep connections to a unique vision heritage.

The priest must confront the truth about his connections to an ancient race when the responsibility falls to him to take up the torch as the next keeper of the Light.

“Children of Light” is a unique premise that uncovers the power of collective memories. Despite the premise having the potential to build a horror story, it was great to see the the author takes the story’s direction to an unexpected turn instead by focusing on relationships and the age-old debate of “Destiny vs. coincidence.
