Search "Crazy Russians" on YouTube and you will find videos with millions of hits. Imagine moving your whole family to Siberia. Texas Tales follows a sixth generation Texas boy who struggles to adjust to life in Siberia. Hilarious misadventures follow one after another as he learns to navigate the cultural divide between the Lone Star State and 1,000 years of Russian life. In time he discovers that the greatest challenges are not from his new environment, but from within. Had he been a salesman or worked in petroleum it would have made no difference. The fact that he is a preacher is beside the point. Adjusting to life in Russia will continue to be an interesting challenge for any westerner who ventures there. Texas Tales in Siberia is an inexpensive and painless way to visit Russia. This humorous autobiography covers a period of orientation into a Siberian lifestyle. Russia was still operating on the Soviet Model in many ways. Between the strange way of doing things, and the colorful characters they met along the way, life was so absurd it became amusing. If you need to escape to another time and place, if you want to laugh out loud, then this is your ticket. Run in*s with Russian Rednecks, Babushkas, and the Police guarantee that Slavic life is never dull. Complete economic meltdowns, brutal winters, and stubborn bureaucracy were roadblocks to survival. Dealing with difficult taxi drivers, soviet shopping malls, and horrible roads were strange aspects of the daily routine. You will fall in love with the Russian people.

The concept for this book developed from a series of advent sermons I heard several years ago. During each of the four weeks of advent, a different main character was presented from the passages in Matthew and Luke. It was a fascinating series and piqued my curiosity, leading me to ask, "Wouldn't it be interesting to take a look at each of the individual characters involved in the Christmas story?" I later incorporated the idea into a series of Sunday School lessons, expanding from the four original characters in those advent sermons. As I began to do research on each of the main characters I came across Galatians 4:4. It was at that point I realized there was so much more to the nativity narratives than just the story of Christ's birth in a manger with shepherds attending and wise men visiting later. God's plan for a redeeming sacrifice to atone for all sin followed a perfect time schedule set forth by God. His control over all things displayed such precision as He moved people's hearts and changed their plans. He allowed major events in history to occur at the proper time while also allowing minor events in people's lives to take place at specific moments. All of these came together "when the time was right". As you read, it is my hope you will be encouraged by the knowledge of God's concern for you in every area of your life and of His sovereign control over this world and its events. I also hope you will discover again, perhaps from a new perspective, the wonder of the Birth of Christ.

The Red Hill is a story about two different events that occurred over a century apart It is the story of a family of battling Queensland squatters trying to build a future in the harsh conditions. In the 1880's, the district around Mitchell in Queensland had been severely affected by a devastating drought. With their cattle slowly dying from lack of food and water, John Barlow and two of his sons, decide to gamble all and drove their herd down the Darling River system to the new boom mining area in western New South Wales known as 'Broken Hill'. It is an arduous journey that will see them away from home for six months and travelling through wild, almost unknown bush. On the return part of the journey, tragedy strikes. Then over a hundred years later, a small plane crashes on route to western Queensland. The pilot, gets out a Mayday call that alerts the emergency services, but as the night goes on nothing more is heard from him. The following morning, a radio crackles back to life and a very faint voice is heard saying that although injured, he is alive. He adds only that he can see a red hill, and then the radio goes silent for the last time. With that clue as their only lead to his whereabouts, the searchers begin looking for the downed plane. As fate has it, the two stories meld into one.

In the future, all of our latest technology is antique. The Earth has advanced much further in the next hundred years or so, but at what cost? The economy saw the disappearance of art and creative thinking, so that only math and science prevailed upon the world. Without them though, the world is a lonely place. When alien life-forms are discovered and appreciate our old art forms, there is a sudden demand for it everywhere. Now old art forms are the most valuable commodities on the market and people would do anything to get their hands on it. Scott was just a simple, out of work, office worker with a few poems he wanted published, but when he is taken advantage of by a corrupt money hungry industry, he gets thrown into the dark side of the world. Pirates, mobs, corrupt politicians, love, civil war, aliens, and all the problems that come with them, come his way. He must get what is rightfully his and put a stop to all those who would kill him for a little art.

All the power of Hell was unleashed on the followers of Jesus Christ during the first five centuries of our era. When persecution did not work, corruption from within was employed by the enemy. Facing down the powers of this world the believers held on to Jesus as the Author and Finisher of their faith! In our time the Old Adversary has spun a tale of a single Church that ruled Europe for 1,000 years. As his story goes, all congregations that exist today flow from this idolatrous universal spring. Because of destruction of evidence coupled with powerful and constant propaganda many modern day believers have swallowed Satan's lie. From Jerusalem To You gathers the remaining evidence that supports the prophecy of Jesus. The Four keys used in this book unlock the ancient mystery. They open the door to the treasure trove of God's preservation and power of pure New Testament churches! This book provides evidence that God has preserved His Word and His Churches in pristine condition for twenty centuries. The story follows Christians who stopped using the adjective 'catholic' and separated from those who continued to do so in A.D. 250. Using the texts of history this book shows that Anabaptists of the second century and the Cathari denounced by Roman Emperor Constantine's new "Church" in the fourth century are one and the same.
