The bestselling author of Yellow Crocus returns with a haunting and tender story of three women returning to the plantation they once called home. Oberlin, Ohio, 1868. Lisbeth Johnson was born into privilege in the antebellum South. Jordan Freedman was born a slave to Mattie, Lisbeth's beloved nurse. The women have an unlikely bond deeper than friendship. Three years after the Civil War, Lisbeth and Mattie are tending their homes and families while Jordan, an aspiring suffragette, teaches at an integrated school. When Lisbeth discovers that her father is dying, she's summoned back to the Virginia plantation where she grew up. There she must face the Confederate family she betrayed by marrying an abolitionist. Jordan and Mattie return to Fair Oaks, too, to save the family they left behind, who still toil in oppression. For Lisbeth, it's a time for reconciliation. For Jordan and Mattie, it's time for liberation. As the Johnsons and Freedmans confront the injustice that binds them, as well as the bitterness and violence that seethes at its heart, the women must find the courage to free their families--and themselves--from the past.

In 1991, an eminent American member of the New World Order secretly declared "The supranatural sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination practiced in past centuries." Ben Peri has methodically followed the link that exists between this declaration of war on democracy, the rigged American elections of 2000 and 2004, 9/11, orchestrated terror, and the "preventive" wars that followed. The central thesis for the book came as a bolt from the blue from Major General Smedley Butler: "War is a racket." He knows whereof he speaks. He survived two devastating wars as a staff officer in the U. S. Army. He witnessed the real "business" of war with its reckless investors, profiteers, think tanks, propaganda disseminators, and public opinion manipulators. Ben Peri debunks step by step the lies of the U. S. government, the Pentagon, CIA, and FBI about 9/11, the WTC demolition, the false Pentagon attack, fake organized terror, total suppression of our liberties, and the outrageous propaganda about our values, freedom, and democracy. All the while, the mainstream media, according to former chief of staff of The New York Times play "intellectual prostitutes." [presstitutes? - per Mike Rivero] But, a thousand men loaded with lies cannot withstand one man armed with the truth. The "hundred-year war" looks more and more like a "hundred-year extremely rewarding business", at a time when free trade capitalist systems show signs of great collapse. It is a business where the margins are often 100 times more important than the most profitable traditional businesses. While WARBIZ spreads death among totally innocent civilians (over 150,000 so far, including 40,000 kids and babies), as well as U. S. and coalition troops, and depleted uranium (DU), which causes cancer, degenerative diseases, paralysis, and birth deformities. As a consequence of the Gulf War (1991), 50 percent of American soldiers (more than 350,000) suffer from exposure to DU, which has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. Specialists estimate that the uranium contamination in the present Iraq War is 250,000 times the contamination resulting from the atom bomb on Nag

Paul Karanick and his wife, Christina, experienced what it means to have the faith of a mustard seed. The term is used by Christ to explain the power that one can have if we just have a little faith. Paul looks back on his life and ministry to reveal how God strengthens our faith and forms us into an effective part of the body of Christ. Recalling the steps of how God led him, his family and ministry, Paul highlights how God equips the ones He calls by:  Calling all people to have faith  Confirming that God is calling  Walking through fear  Building a stronger faith  Infecting others with faith Paul uses his own life as an example of the faith process. These illustrations will prepare believers for the typical steps involved in building a stronger faith relationship with Christ. Paul openly admits that he was not qualified to take on the task that God had placed upon him, but God would soon reveal to Paul that no one is truly qualified without the power of Christ. God reshaped Paul and led him into a ministry that continuously depended upon faith. A true visionary and gifted in faith, he began to trust less in his own abilities and more upon God's abilities. Knowing that without faith it is impossible to please God, Paul teaches of using faith to get as close to God as you can. Paul's unshakeable faith became contagious within his ministry as life's worries and fears were lessened due to the faith that God provides.
