This collection investigates the origins of our most intriguing old-fashioned superstitions, many of which we still find ourselves abiding by today.

Many are perplexed by the significant shifts in our world today. Things are changing in politics, economics, and the very fabric of our society.

Let this book transport you into a love relationship that is pure and holy. That is God’s love for us. Through the true-life experiences and Biblical truths shared here, you can enter more deeply—or maybe for the first time ever—into a vibrant connection with the God of Heaven and Earth, who gave himself for you and now shares himself by His Holy Spirit and His Word. I had to learn—through failure, through difficulty forgiving myself, and through trials—about love. Love for myself. Love for God. And love from God toward me and through me to others.

Rather than analyze countless details separately, the apostle John’s Revelation is best understood as it was designed–a three-act dramatic play revealing Jesus Christ, to be experienced straight through as a whole.
