Terms like same-sex marriage, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gay Christian are part of daily discourse; yet enormous controversy surrounds them. They are the stuff of news headlines and vitriolic social media posts. But they also reflect stirrings of the heart in real people with real questions and concerns. Rosaria Champagne Butterfield, once a leftist professor in a committed lesbian relationship and now a confessional Christian, but always the thoughtful and compassionate professor, has written a followup to The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert. This book answers many of the questions people pose when she speaks at universities and churches, questions not only about her unlikely conversion to Christ but about personal struggles that the questioners only dare to ask someone else who has traveled a long and painful journey. Dr. Butterfield not only goes to great lengths to clarify some of today's key controversies, she also traces their history and defines the terms that have become second nature today-even going back to God's original design for marriage and sexuality as found in the Bible. She cuts to the heart of the problems and points the way to the solution, which includes a challenge to the church to be all that God intended it to be, and for each person to find the true freedom that is found in Christ. --

"Rosaria, by the standards of many, was living a very good life. She had a tenured position at a large university in a field for which she cared deeply. She owned two homes with her partner, in which they provided hospitality to students and activists that were looking to make a difference in the world. In the community, Rosaria was involved in volunteer work. At the university, she was a respected advisor of students and her department's curriculum. And then, in her late 30s, Rosaria encountered something that turned her world upside down -- the idea that Christianity, a religion that she had regarded as problematic and sometimes downright damaging, might be right about who God was. That idea seemed to fly in the face of the people and causes that she most loved. What follows is a story of what she describes as a train wreck at the hand of the supernatural. These are her secret thoughts about those events, written as only a reflective English professor could."--Back cover.

The purpose of this story is to create a superhero unlike any seen before. This one doesn't wear a cape or a colorful costume or resort to science-fiction antics. He is only slightly different from the boy you might find next door, in that he has a neurological disorder which makes him an unlikely hero. This story will give readers a glimpse of what life may be like for a family raising an autistic child in a culture gone bad. It is set in an upscale community that has gone overboard chasing unwritten rules of political correctness and social engineering. The unlikely hero does some phenomenal things, such as wiping out a bunch of gangsters and a common criminal who tries to nab one of his fellow students. Traditional, thinking people in the community and the vast Internet world think he is a genuine hero. This opinion conflicts sharply with the opinion of a big-time civil-rights lawyer and a cadre of elitists who claim he is a vigilante who should be banished. As the tale unwinds, many characters add, in their own way, to solving the mystery of how he does what he does. There are hints that the boy's overachieving, terrorist-fighting uncle Jocko may have brought about a supernatural transformation. "This is a good and a provocative read with unusual twists. Those familiar with autism will nod their heads in agreement as the issue is sensitively touched upon, social conservatives will likely be smiling in agreement as hot-button issues are pushed, and national security advocates will find the terrorist/elitist tie interesting. It ends in great style. I had an urge to applaud." -Lap Calimi, technical writer

In a galaxy where human life is dear and youth is valued over age, Tamryn finds herself alone, an exile on a dying world. She mourns her lost husband and child, and watches her fellow exiles rail uselessly against those who cast them away.

When his Oshairan sister gives the human exiles hope, Tamryn begins to believe in life again. Tamryn is drawn to Tal, attracted to his beauty and the strangeness of his nature. But she does not believe he returns her desire. She cannot shake her yearning for him, and when passion unexpectedly flares, they have no choice but to complete an Oshairan/Ekoshen marriage rite. While Tamryn struggles with her decision, knowing Tal will never love her, she discovers passion with an alien is far more dangerous than she ever imagined ... Join Tamryn as she journeys into the unknown, facing the violence of dangerous fanatics and the power of Ekoshen desire. Experience the wonder of voyaging across lands both bleak and beautiful, as Tamryn explores the depths of what it means to belong to Tal and finds love in An Unlikely Place ... his heart. About the Author: GA Lanham says, "I love romance. Even better, I love a good romance with otherworldly themes like magic or aliens." Her next book is a science fiction romance about a woman facing a choice, slavery through marriage or slavery in a brothel. Born in the Grand Canyon, literally, the author now lives in Roswell, New Mexico. Publisher's website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/AnUnlikelyPlace.html
