Book Description
Ending a war, as Fred Charles Iklé wrote, poses a much greater challenge than beginning one. In addition to issues related to battle tactics, prisoners of war, diplomatic relations, and cease-fire negotiations, ending war involves domestic political calculations. Balancing the tides of public opinion versus policy needs poses a deep and enduring problem for presidents. In a first-of-its-kind study, Resowing the Seeds of War explains how Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Nixon, and Obama managed the political, policy, and bureaucratic challenges that arise at the end of war via a series of rhetorical choices that reframe, modify, or unravel depictions of national enemies, the cause of the conflict, and the stakes for the nation and world. This end-of-war rhetoric justifies ending hostilities, rationalizes postwar national policy, argues for the construction of postwar security arrangements, and often sustains public support for massive financial investment in reconstruction. By tracking presidential manipulations of savage imagery from World War II to the War on Terror, this book concludes that even as metaphoric reframing facilitates exit from conflict, it incurs unexpected consequences that make national involvement in the next conflict more likely.

Book Description
In the eternal past, before the boundary of time was added to the dimensions of the universe, superior beings referred to as the Elohim Council administered the cosmos from the various planets scattered throughout the countless galaxies of the corporal universe. Shortly after the recreation of Earth, a war began between the Seed of woman and the seed of the Serpent. The novel allows you to step back into the folds of the ancient past and become a witness to the origins of the Nephilim and the resulting seed war. As the curtain is drawn, the past sheds light on the present and reveals the purpose and destiny of the Promise Seed. In the current day, the Gruen family and a reporter, Justin Freed, are set up as combatants of this war. They will answer the call to duty and prepare to fight battles that will right ancient wrongs and restore justice. This is a war of the supernatural and requires supernatural tactics to win each battle. As the war progresses, the reader soon discovers that battles are only won as the participants discover God-given keys to unlock the gates of Hades. More than a novel, The Seed War contains revelation of how this age-old war began and imparts insights to open the eyes of the reader to see the enemy for who he is. This novel will not only entertain, but also open ears to hear the battle cry of the righteous --- the cry for justice!

Book Description
This work analyzes a subject of some controversy in light of sound hermeneutics and exegesis while building upon biblical truths that support this undertaking. This is not a simple academic exercise but rather instills in believers a sense of encouragement whereby we can arrive at biblical truths based on accurately handling the Word of God while taking a pastoral approach in applying these truths. The subject at hand is the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 and the book of Job, together with NT revelation that reveals who these "sons of God" are in both Testaments. Determining who these sons of God are in Genesis 6 and Job is more than simply winning an argument. It is at the crux of the spiritual war that began in the garden and continues today but can be misunderstood and therefore undermined by improper biblical approaches. This manuscript helps to set the stage for a proper redemptive historical look into the people of God and catapults the believer into a future hope that God promised to the patriarchs through a coming Messiah whose lineage in Luke 3:23 states, "Jesus Himself was about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, the son of Joseph," and ends back in the garden in verse 38, "the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God." This is an instructive biblical account of the war that was precipitated between the two seeds that God set at odds with each other after Satan's temptation and Adam's rebellion. And as I move through the biblical particulars, the story finally ends as a "happily ever after" description of what God accomplishes through His victorious Son with His people ultimately ruling and reigning with Him on the new earth among the new heavens.
