When tragedy strikes, she finds herself alone and penniless with only one talent – a green thumb.Jasper, the Earl of Seton, is in need of a gardener to reclaim his derelict estate in the remote west of England.

Book Description
And we have the word of prophecy made more sure; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts. (II Peter 1:9) The word of prophecy was not given that we might merely be comforted but that we would be prepared and made ready. Let us look into the Word of God together, searching out the prophecies, that the Day-Star arise in our hearts until the Day dawns.

Book Description
Author Ken McAlpine stands in his front yard one night in Ventura, California, trying to see the stars. His view is diminished by light pollution, making it hard to see much of anything in the sky. Our fast-paced, technologically advanced society, he concludes, is not conducive to stargazing or soul-searching. Taking a page from Thoreau's Walden, he decides to get away from the clamor of everyday life, journeying alone through California's Channel Islands National Park. There, he imagines, he might be able to "breathe slowly and think clearly, to examine how we live and what we live for." In between his week-long solo trips through these pristine islands, McAlpine reaches out to try to better understand his fellow man: he eats lunch with the homeless in Beverly Hills, sits in the desert with a 98-year-old Benedictine monk, and befriends a sidewalk celebrity impersonator in Hollywood. What he discovers about himself and the world we live in will inspire anyone who wishes they had the time to slow down and notice the wonders of nature and humanity.

Book Description
When the joy of our existence is attributed to the works of man it is time to delve deeper into the spiritual world. No two days are the same—our existence in this lifetime is a school of thought for the next. The miracles of God are the same today as they have been in the past. He is a spirit, he is invisible and he is what is, what was and what would be. Cephas is a man pressured by life's obstacles, a systems engineer living in London and exposed to harrowing escapades. Yet even in the face of adversity he is chosen to live by the word of God, not by his will but by a mystery that dumbfounds the wisdom of man. Can one day make the difference? Faith is the evidence, patience is a virtue and suspense is the attraction. Weaved in a vast arena with vivid scenarios from four continents he reveals an epic voyage of courage and hope in a quest for the reason behind his existence. Cephas is the man and life is a mystery. What is the missing link...
