God's Goodness: Authors For Christ

Knowing HIM in His Word and Prayer by Thomas J. Mozden is a daily devotional study designed to meditate and dig deeper into God’s Word. Each devotional seeks to display and reveal the author’s meditation and thoughts that touched his being, as each scripture verse chosen, he felt led by the Holy Spirit to read. “His Word is alive, and it is here where you will find true life and the gateway to eternal life.” ~ writes the author. He hopes that readers will understand that God’s Word is alive and an all-consuming fire. It is also the author’s hope that each person picking up the book will be touched, inspired, and deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ ~ who paid such a high price for the free gift of salvation.

Several themes run throughout the book, as the author mentions 3 words that are repeated and non-negotiable in speaking of life in Christ. They are: Trust, forgiveness, and love. I love that he begins his book with the scripture verse Matthew 11:28 GNB, “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest.”

His insights are compassionate, valuable, and give a fresh perspective to many who will come to understand that this author offers a contemplative interpretation of Scripture. I also came to appreciate his wisdom, insight, intelligence, and greatly valued his perspective.

This book will bring readers into a deeper relationship and understanding of the Word, as they seek the Lord in their own meditation, prayer, and their own perspective. Written for believers, but this also comes as a wonderful book to encourage others to believe in the Lord and to ignite faith, hope, strength, and love through reading God’s Word.

This book also comes highly recommended for those who seek a book written and guided by someone who is Holy Spirit-led in their writings.

Hi everyone.

My name is Tony Braithwaite and I live in Australia.

It’s a small world! Everybody knows someone diagnosed with or has signs / symptoms of autism.

I’m the author of a new Australian children’s fiction picture book about an autistic boy starting a mainstream school. He befriends a Ukrainian refugee boy. Together they navigate unknown challenges on their first day at school.

Everything and Everybody Belong Somewhere is more than a story—it’s a message of hope for children navigating the complexities of starting school, especially those with autism or from refugee backgrounds.

This beautifully sensitive picture book is inspired by my real-life journey with my autistic grandson, who also experiences sensory processing disorder and restrictive eating. It’s a heartfelt reflection of the challenges—and joys—of finding connection in unfamiliar spaces.

I'm a passionate advocate for children with developmental challenges. My prior work with Australia’s National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and Disability Employment Services (DES), helped families access vital support, therapies, and pathways to inclusion.

I'm a survivor of a life-threatening congenital condition and live with deep gratitude and a commitment to making every day count. My books—now in their fifth publication—are written from the heart and inspired by lived experience.

Everything and Everybody Belong Somewhere is available globally as a soft cover book from your favourite bookstore (physical store or on-line) or from my website: tony-braithwaite.com

Here's the link to buy this book from Barnes and Noble.

Hello, everyone! I am so happy to share my family-friendly books with all of you. I found myself deeply impacted by the Maui wildfires a couple of years ago, and now the recent California fires. Because of that, God placed it on my heart to write two middle-grade novellas about a young boy who must navigate the dangers and then the aftermath of the Maui wildfires. That is how I ended up publishing Through the Flames and its sequel Above the Ashes. I wanted kids to explore the themes of courage and trusting in God.
You can find them through this link on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Emani-E...
Or you can go through my website, where I share my upcoming work and the summaries of my current books: https://emaniedwards.my.canva.site/

I hope that you check it out or share it with someone who can be blessed by it. They are two family-friendly works that I pray can reach kids in a wonderful way.

A powerful, family-friendly story of faith in action 🙏

Thank you for the invite to your group, Kingdom I am grateful to be amongst a group of talented, ambitious and likeminded individuals!

A Musical Book For You!' was released this past April and I have since translated it into French, Polish, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian and the Canadian National Institute for the Blind is currently transcribing it into Braille! I Am also planning a live performance of it as part of a fundraiser in December.



I am looking forward to joining in on discussions with members!

Sincerely,

In the chapters of this book you are going to learn that you are fearfully and wonderfully made. You will discover that you were created by the very hands of God, fashioned and formed by His hands and in His image. You are an original.

You will see how the way you dress is important to God. The way you dress causes people to form an opinion of what kind of person you are. Do they see Christ or the world when they look at you? What does the way we dress say to others?

You will also learn about matters of the heart and how to be healed. I believe through the pages of this book you will see who you really are and how important you are to God.

The clothing we wear and the image we portray speaks volumes. I believe this book will change your thinking about who you are and what you wear. Scripture proves that we are important to God and so is how we dress. Modesty is a matter of the heart as well as appearance. In this book you will discover scriptures that back up these statements. There is truth in the pages of this book. May you see yourself in a new way as you read this book.

Daughters Of God.........Modesty Matters

In the pages of this book Jennifer explains the truth of the Word of God concerning a Proverbs 31 woman. You are going to learn what it really means to be a Proverbs 31 woman and how to fulfill this role. God has instructed us in His Word on all that He wants us to do. He has also instructed us on the importance of obedience to His Word.

As you read this book you will learn how to be truly fulfilled as a woman and a wife and how to have an amazing, satisfying marriage. You are going to learn the true meaning of having a fear of the Lord. “Being a Proverbs 31 Woman……What Does That Mean?” teaches you to be the woman and wife God has called you to be. You will also learn the rewards of obedience and the importance of putting God first and foremost in your life and in your marriage.

Jennifer and her husband Jay, live in the Fort Worth, Texas area. They are members of Living Word Teaching Center in New Fairview, Texas. Their goal is to help get the truth of the Word of God out to the world so that lives can be impacted for Christ. Jennifer and Jay both love and serve God faithfully. They have three sons, a daughter-in-law, and a granddaughter, all who serve and love God. Jennifer has also written another book titled “Daughters Of God…… Modesty Matters”. She is currently working on another book as well.

Being A Proverbs 31 Woman....What Does That Mean?

My desire and hope for you is that in the pages of this book you will learn what submission really is. Jesus Christ is the ultimate example of submission. The Word tells us we are to follow Christ’s example. If you look at submission to your husband as if you are submitting to God, you will gain a whole new outlook on submission. A submitted wife is a beautiful person. Submission honors God, does tremendous things for your marriage, and shows your husband respect and honor.

As you read this book, may you be enlightened to Christ’s submission to God, and to your role as a submitted woman, first to God, then to your husband. Let’s begin this journey together. May your heart soften toward submission.

Jennifer and her husband Jay, live in the Fort Worth, Texas area. They attend Living Word Teaching Center near New Fairview, Texas where they are involved in leadership. They have three sons, two daughter-in-laws, two granddaughters and a grandson. Jennifer and Jay are very active in their electrical business, church, and family. They are beginning to travel in their “Declaring the Truth Ministries.” This is the third book in a series that God has given Jennifer to write.

What Is a Submitted Wife......and How Do I Become One?

Can God really love me the way the Bible tells me He does? What is a woman’s heart all about? Why is she so emotional? Why is she insecure? Why doesn’t my husband understand me?
If you have ever asked these questions about God, yourself, or your spouse, then this book is for you.

The pages of this book are full of Biblical truths on the love that God has for us. This book will inspire you to be all you can be in Jesus. After you read this book you will understand why you are different than your spouse, how very much God loves you, and why you have struggled with insecurity (if you have).

We all need to understand each other. We cannot give away what we do not have. Through Jesus we have forgiveness, unconditional love, and grace. Once we see these things, believe them, and receive them we will be a new person. Then in turn, we can give these things away to our spouses and others.

May the truths in this book supernaturally change you from the inside out. My prayer is this: That you believe and receive the amazing, unconditional, overwhelming love God has for you!

The Heart of a Woman

As we all move deeper into the year 2021 and beyond, we are finding that there seems to be fewer and fewer good answers to many of our life questions and fears. The Covid virus is still very much a threat to us as our families, jobs and businesses all struggle with the real effects of these threats. Many of us, especially we older folks, grew up at a time when faith in God was more of a key component in our daily lives. We went to church regularly and even a significant number of us received our formal education in Judeo-Christian based schools. But as we became older, our lives have become more complicated and confusing. “God Loves U-Turns” is a call to all people to consider returning to the things we learned about: Christianity, and specifically the teachings of Jesus Christ. Looking at the current problems in our world and personal lives would suggest that we have not been successful in finding good answers to our fears and concerns. It also suggests that we have been heading in the wrong direction for a very long time and a course correction is badly needed. Life is short and for many of us, it is becoming even shorter. Could it be that the answers we seek will come from a spiritual source? Is that what we have been missing? Is it time to go back and revisit the wisdom we found in our Christian education? In other words, is it time to make a U-Turn and head back to where we knew we were safe while in God’s presence and teachings? God does indeed love U-turns, and He is waiting eagerly for our return. Time is running out. This book will help you understand what is involved in returning home to God and most importantly, why it is the most serious decision you will ever make.

God Loves U-Turns: Our Last Chance To Make It Right

In "Living the Life of Jesus in the 21st Century," Tom McQueen takes readers on a transformative journey to rediscover the radical relevance of Jesus' teachings for modern life. Drawing from scripture and personal reflections, this book challenges the notion that Christ’s life and message are confined to history, bringing His wisdom into the complexities of today’s world.

The book delves deeply into the heart of Jesus’ ministry, exploring His timeless ethical principles, the power of His parables, and His miraculous acts of healing and compassion. Whether addressing issues of love, forgiveness, service, or sacrifice, McQueen illuminates how Christ’s teachings can be translated into practical actions that transform lives and communities.

Each chapter highlights a critical aspect of living as a modern-day disciple:

The Sermon on the Mount challenges us to embrace radical love and justice.
The Power of Prayer offers a deeper connection to the Creator.
The Way of Forgiveness demonstrates how releasing grudges brings inner peace.
Navigating Relationships teaches love and grace in an often-divided world.
Ethical Dilemmas offer Christ’s moral compass in a complex, fast-paced society.

McQueen, drawing from his own life and experience, applies Jesus' teachings to our personal and professional lives, offering actionable steps to live with purpose, integrity, and compassion. In a world marked by division, distraction, and despair, this book reminds readers that the life of Jesus is a dynamic blueprint for spiritual vitality and moral clarity.

Ideal for anyone seeking a deeper, more meaningful connection with their faith, "Living the Life of Jesus in the 21st Century" is a call to action: to move beyond passive belief and actively live out the radical love, justice, and peace that Christ exemplified.

Join McQueen in this profound exploration and discover how to live out the mission of Christ in today’s world, making His life not just a historical example, but a living, breathing reality for all believers.

LIVING THE LIFE OF JESUS IN THE 21ST CENTURY

Hello! Enjoy seeing new books published this year that focus on the family. I’m a retired teacher and grandmother who likes to write well intended poetic like messages for my family. Was challenged to share my first collection. So, this August, I published my first book titled, FAMILY WITH YOU. It’s a coffee tableish book of poeticish messages. Hopefully, they will encourage family giggles, conversations about grandmotherly advice given and words of faithful inspiration to share with your family with you.

Adam's fall from grace is a tragic event in human history that serves as a stark reminder of our inherent frailty. This fatal blunder destroyed our once-pure nature, plunging humanity into total depravity. Today, the resulting iniquity, disobedience, revolt, and injustice harm the very foundation of human morality, reinventing the entire human nature. As a result, Adam's offspring are born into a world in which genuine righteousness and justice are elusive, and separating truth from deception, right from wrong, and godliness from ungodliness is a constant struggle.

Nonetheless, God's compassion and grace serve as a beacon of hope for lost humanity, promising to restore peace between humanity and God, the true wellspring of righteousness and justice.

Far beyond the confines of hopelessness, God's boundless compassion and grace began the plan for humanity's redemption in Jesus Christ. Considering this depravity, Jesus announced that the Kingdom of God had arrived, and those who believe in Him must turn to walk with Him on the narrow road of righteousness and justice in submissive faith, carrying their crosses daily.

Following the Lord is choice, necessitating a genuine sense of God's holiness and moral superiority, which encompasses two types of righteousness: positional and virtuous. While the former is attained through faith in Christ's sacrificial death rather than through works or merit, the latter is attained through consistent cultivation of self-discipline and self-control, alignment with God's justice and moral standards, with a renewed desire to live for Christ.

Claiming to be a new creature in Christ without openly displaying behavioral, or virtuous uprightness, alongside holy living, is a silly theological farce woven with strings of disobedience, rebellion, and rejection of truth, showcased via the dishonest way of hypocrisy.

Walking on God's Pathway: The Way of Holiness and Justice

Sir George, The First Rising

Hi all!
My name is Andrew Barton. I am a youth director for a church in the state of Missouri. I recently published the book titled, Sir George, the First Rising. This is the first book in the Dragonisheir series.
It is a fantasy book following the adventures of Sir George, his friend Sir Gawain, and Olly the talking horse who only knows five words. After being given a sword by a minotaur (a creature that is half man and half ox) George is sent on a quest to rescue the king's daughter from Uther Pendragon. The story takes place in a fantasy world of dragons, talking animals, trolls, and knights, with characters from the Arthurian legend, the legend of St. George and the Dragon, and other fairy tales.

The book was originally written for teens, however I have also had positive feedback and interest from adults and parents, as well as one student in grade school.

One review said, "This is incredible. It carries a modern Pilgrim's Progress style to it. A must read with my family!"

I have had a lot of interest from grandparents wanting to buy the book for their grandkids.

The book is clean. There is fighting in it, but it is not graphic. My recomendation age wise would be 5th grade to adult.

The stories for these books were originally created by me and my siblings when we were kids, and recently I have been putting those stories into book format.

If you are looking for clean fantasy books for your kids, with dragons, knights, and talking animals, then you may enjoy this book.

All young children have difficulty processing what they want to do and articulating what they want to say as their speech and language skills develop.

According to the National Institute of Communications Disorders, nearly 1 in 12 (8%) of U.S. children ages 3-7 have a disorder related to voice, speech, and language.

How thrilling is it for a parent to hear their child's first words!
What do you call the gibberish, produced by young children, in the early state of language development?
