Howie Siegel | 1 comments * Title: The First Thing We Do Is Kill All The Isms
* Author(s) name(s): Howie Siegel
* ISBN (or ASIN): B00CFOKAJ0
* Publisher: Howie Siegel
* Publication date: 4/19/2013
* Format: Ebook
* Description: Kill All the Isms is a Jonathan Swift meets George Carlin approach to the intrinsic absurdity of ideologies – secular and religious – and the venality, megalomania and utter shamelessness of their salesmen. Glenn Beck, Jessie Jackson, Jr., Michelle Bachman, John Wayne, Governor Rick Perry, Pope Benedict XVI, Yahweh of the Old Testament, and Donald Trump are among the cast of ism characters that you will meet, laugh at, and watch fall from false grace along the way. Agree or disagree, you will understand why the author argues that the only good ism is a dead ism.

Miracles: Take the FreeWay
Author: Jo Williams
ISBN# 9781482799323
Publisher: Jo Williams/CreateSpace
Pub Date: March 27, 2013
Format: Paperback

Description:

God created a perfect world and pronounced it “good.” Where has that world gone? The standard answer is that we have sinned, fallen short of the glory of God, and royally screwed it up. Yet is man capable of putting asunder what God wills and creates perfect? Some will find the hypothesis in Miracles: Take the FreeWay blasphemous. Some will find it a source of unprecedented hope. No one who reads it will ever see the world again in quite the same way.

Our current rationale and approach to finding peace on earth—sanctimonious judgment, political prowess and military might—not only are not working, they’re disastrous. Take the FreeWay is about finding a better way. It’s about rising above the battleground we call Earth and opening our minds to a radically different view. Based on A Course in Miracles (ACIM), it will challenge the reader to re-evaluate everything he thinks he knows about the world and its Creator.

Although the Bible paints a picture of an erratic, vengeful God, Jesus says, in ACIM, our Creator is neither unpredictable nor capable of violence. God is completely straightforward and unerringly consistent and loving. He has not abandoned us. We have abandoned God.

This is a book about reclaiming the happiness and dominion over our lives that is our divine inheritance. Like the Prodigal, we have squandered that inheritance. Like the father in the parable, Our Father in Heaven patiently awaits our return to joy and sanity.

Behold the Dawn
Author: Jo Williams
ISBN#9781466462953
Publisher: Jo Williams/CreateSpace
Format: Paperback
Description: How will the world end? Some will find the hypothesis in Behold the Dawn heretical. Some will find it a source of unprecedented hope. An uplifting and thought-provoking alternative to the bloody take of the Left Behind series, the book sits firmly on the premise that God is Love and Love does not deal in fire and brimstone. The Rev. Eve Webster cuts precious and lucrative ties in Charlotte, NC, to pursue a spiritual mission her fiancé finds ill advised and is unwilling to support. Thwarted in her efforts by a disgruntled member of her new Hilton Head Island church board and the vengeance of a longtime personal enemy, Eve is brought to the very threshold of death and beyond as she steps out on a limb of faith few would be willing to test.

One Thought from Heaven
Author: Jo Williams
ISBN# 9781466463875
Publisher: Jo Williams/CreateSpace
Format: Paperback
Pub date 01/17/12
Pages: 236

Description: What if you knew, beyond all doubt, that God has endowed you as the unequivocal master of your fate, given you dominion over your every life experience?

Abandoned by his mother at the tender age of two, Seth Smith, a young ER nurse in Manhattan, believes he's a victim in a cruel and chaotic world--until he meets an overweight avatar feigning a heart attack in order to drop into his life. That very evening, when Seth makes an ethical decision to flush a $400K stash of heroin down his kitchen sink, the bottom drops out of the world as he knows it.

Seth's best friend and partner in mayhem, Pearlie Stamper, arranges to hide him from the drug lords who aim to extract payment in flesh. Hidden in the mystical world of barrier islands off Hilton Head Island, Seth falls under the sage tutelage of Pearlie's Aunt Teensie, the widow of a Gullah root doctor, and her quirky cousin Moosa, a self-ordained minister and healer.

As Seth fights to survive the deadly determination of his predators, his lessons in mystical dominion begin in earnest and prove to him he is indeed the master of his fate, including the fate of his illusive love affair with Jeya Park, the beautiful Korean he met on-line at the outset of his life-altering calamity.

Ringer
Author: Tre Hilton (penname for authors Jo Williams, Kathryn Wall and Vicky Hunnings) *There's an acute over the "e" in Tre, but I don't know how to accomplish that here. Sorry.)
ISBN# 9781466463981
Publisher: Jo Williams/CreateSpace
Format: Paperback
Pub date: 01/17/12
Pages: 232

Description: Tre Hilton is the pseudonym for three authors: Kathryn Wall, known for her Bay Tanner mystery series; Jo Williams, author of Miracles: Take the FreeWay and a meta-novel series launched with The Song My Soul Remembers; and Vicky Hunnings, author of the Bride Wore Blood and other police procedural mysteries.

Joyfully created at the three authors' kitchen tables, this delightful romantic suspense is an engaging testament to Jo Williams' versatility in mood, focus, and skill. There is absolutely no "divine message" in this book. It's just an entertaining, fast-paced read. Ringer takes the reader on a whirlwind chase from the haunting hills of West Virginia to the lush tropical paradise the authors called home--Hilton Head Island, SC.

Caroline Stephens loves her life, employing her special talent for surgically altering appearances in service to her country . . . until the night at the safe house when everything goes terribly wrong. Nearly penniless and on the run, she quickly realizes that the very clandestine agency she serves may have become her most deadly enemy.

Can Coop, the rugged, enigmatic former SEAL and his weathered old employer, Jonah, help keep her alive long enough to thwart the ambitions of Coop's old nemesis, who will stop at nothing to gain the presidency?

Racing against an almost impossible deadline, Caroline and Coop must put their hearts' desires on hold or risk a catastrophe that could damage not only their own country but could derail international relations for decades.
