Dr. Moody offers a compelling (and sometimes humorous) call to live a joyful, hopeful life as a Christian and as a Citizen, even when dealing with myriad personal problems, discouraging political division, and global challenges such as recession, pandemic, or even war. Basing his encouragement out of a fresh reading of Paul's Epistle to the Philippians, this experienced pastor, parent, and scholar invites you to draw inspiration from this ancient letter for our living in the modern, often chaotic and confusing world. These short essays on Christian living will bless you and make you a stronger, wiser person.

A kingdom above all, and there is and will forever be one kingdom, which is Jehovah, and Jehovah is king over all things, and the creator of the seed. This book is about Jehovah and his seed for his spiritual self shall spread out and become all that shall be, and by this command all came before him in the kingdom of Jehovah. This book came about because the book of Ezekiel set forth a beginning and the book of Revelation brought about the end of the seed in Jehovah's heaven, or does it? Not a new beginning but a new cause, and some men hold-on for this new thing they may realize for the blood of water has never touched them. I am giving more than this book and far less than your imagination could ever concede, and where did you come from? Read along with me and spread the word, and become truthful and a good seed.

This book is a collection of memories and friends. I was born and raised in the woods of East Texas, but my travels carried me around the Earth four times a year for 27 years. Living and working in foreign countries tested my personal beliefs daily but the more I learned the more I know exactly why my parents and family taught me the values that guided that guided me to happiness and success wherever I went and whoever I worked with. Fear was never an option or something that I understood because I understood from my family teaching me that GOD created everything and everybody. I am sure that life is never ending because I know that others live within me, and I will live in others as a memory.

Anthony Von Mickle has been the absolute envy of many of his friends and colleagues for years as he travels to exotic locations, lives in fabulous communities and enjoys the "good life" while they perpetually tell him "I'm trying to live vicariously through you". These are by and large very capable degreed professionals with good jobs, yet they still seem to fall short of where they ultimately want to be in life. On the surface, they easily point to a lack of money but Von argues that while limited financial resources may be only part of the problem the bigger problem is limited insight and motivation coupled with a lack of belief that something out of this world can actually happen for them.From the mobile home to where moguls is filled with examples of how the average ordinary person with no special training or fancy job title yet who has huge dreams can get going and make tremendous progress towards some right outlandish desires. Regardless of whether you grew up in a mobile home or you've had the good fortune to be raised with all your basic needs and wants, this book will make you reconsider how some things that seem far away may be a lot closer than you might otherwise think.

I liberated Hope from her cyclic cold shower damnation, forced her down onto our bed, wedged my head between her clamped legs, held her resistant arms down, and performed cunnilingus while she fought against me. She relented after two minutes and climaxed after five minutes. I pulled down my pants, removed my boxers, unbuttoned my shirt, unfastened my shirt stays, dropped to my knees, and allowed Hope to perform fellatio on me for one minute. I donned a condom and voluntarily climaxed inside her in less than two minutes within the range of twenty to thirty slow-paced pumps, in the missionary position, as I stared into her eyes, gripped the top of her head, and kissed her elated face. Harmony is restored; this is an important lesson concerning the masculine and feminine dichotomy.

Special 20th Anniversary EditionWhen Marilyn Monroe died in October 2003, she left behind the first volume of her memoirs (1926 to 1962), award-winning performances, and the memories of a thirty-five-year marriage. Now, after two and a half years of intensive research, (including interviews with noted figures such as Jane Fonda and Hilary Clinton, as well as Marilyn's children, friends, and co-workers), a detailed accounting of the second half of this incredible life can be told. Utilizing exclusive access to her personal papers granted by her family, Life Among the Cannibals 1962-2003 chronicles not only Monroe's response to the war and assassinations of the Sixties, her encounters with the likes of Janis Joplin, Pat Nixon, and Mikhail Gorbachev, but traces her evolution from sex symbol to Hollywood's Conscience. Above all, now in a special 20th Anniversary Edition, Life Among the Cannibals puts an end to the innuendo and speculation surrounding the life and career of one of the 20th century's most beloved figures. "Instead of mourning what was lost, Marshall celebrates what should have been. With this highly entertaining book, Marshall gives Marilyn Monroe the second act she surely deserved." Author Tara Hanks"David's book is absolutely terrific and well deserves a space on your bookshelves. I promise you won't be disappointed." Biographer Michelle Morgan"David Marshall has given us all a wonderful gift; a joyful chance to see what SHOULD have been, what COULD have been, as Marilyn makes her way through the rest of the 2Oth century, gaining the personal happiness and respect she always yearned for, forging friendships with some of the most influential figures of our time - and always remaining our beloved Marilyn."
