A hemispheric sojourn from Santiago, Chile to Ottawa, Canada, We Can Change the World captures the passions and motivations of largely unknown actors through the civil rights, anti-Vietnam War and Women's Liberation movements, the Cuban and Nicaraguan Revolutions, the Chilean Coup, the Salvadoran civil war, the South Africa anti-apartheid campaign, the struggle for Mayan cultural survival, human rights initiatives, and more. We Can Change the World is both homage and cautionary tale, bringing to life everyday people engaged in extra-ordinary acts, some noble and worthy of celebration, others tragically misguided. It is a unique revisiting of many of the defining moments of our times.

This is a true story about a magical day in the author's neighborhood in 1946, when, as one of the little boys this story is about, he learned something that changed his life forever. Billy Bob, TC, Double M and others were the best friends of his childhood, and those decades were a different time, when children could run loose, and did. When they played with pocket knives and shot each other with rubber-guns and BB-guns and used inappropriate language when their parents couldn't hear. And when they learned unexpected lessons in unexpected places. There are some parents who will be unhappy because the children in this story use language adults might wish they did not ... though all children no doubt do so, when their parents are not around. Some readers are going to be disappointed because the neighborhood in the story is not an inclusive one, so not all children will find visual images of themselves reflected here. But the lesson itself is a universal one. Maybe it is for our children. Or maybe it's for us. Things ain't always the way they appear to be.

The author introduces The Pochaev Icon of the Mother of God to the reader in a deeply personal narrative. During a difficult time in her life, she visited Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, New York, and was blessed to encounter a miracle-working copy of this icon which resides in the Church of Saint Job of Pochaev, located below Holy Trinity Cathedral. The original icon resides at the Holy Dormition Pochaev Lavra in Ukraine and is widely known for healing of the sick, helping in times of war, and many other documented miracles. The flow of miracles from this venerable icon continues to this day. The author preserves her transformative experience and personal revelations in this book as a testament to the spiritual beauty and holy history of the Pochaev Icon.

一个人要划分"神子"与"人子"不仅需要依靠神的话（圣经）， 也要推敲，在基督之后数百年里，当罗马帝国的皇帝做了教皇，罗马帝国里到底发生了什么。 那时耶稣基督的真实追随者被迫面对来自作为异端的天主教的挑战。 在罗马帝国统治的政教合一的年代，那些跟随耶稣基督在五旬节那天所建教会的牧者与圣徒，因为不与天主教的亵渎神的三位一体论妥协，选择展开地下教会工作。
