Book Description
This is a story written from two different perspectives: one of a husband and one of a wife. Our individual lives started from two diverse worlds and combined to become one life in 1987. We considered ourselves the typical, normal suburban family. As we grew in our marriage and focused on raising our children, we were determined to do so with God in first place and the kids in church. Unfortunately, the circumstances of life came into play a few years into our marriage and developed into a near cataclysmic end to two wonderful relationships: Our marriage to each other and our marriage to Christ. Jeff and Suzanne Coulter have been married since 1987. Jeff Coulter was born in 1966 and is from Williamsburg, Ohio. A devout Christian throughout his early adulthood, Jeff reached a crossroad with the death of his mother in 1988 and found himself turning away from God. On April 22nd, 2014 Jeff was nearly killed in a head on collision. Beating the odds and surviving the crash, one week later Jeff suffered multiple pulmonary emboli. Only 1 out of 20 survive such a traumatic incident. Jeff slipped into a void of nothingness; the absolute absence of the presence of God. A void filled with demonic beings and symbolic icons of hell and death. Miraculously surviving the crash and emboli, God also delivered Jeff from alcoholism and chronic depression. Through it all there was his wife Suzanne at his side as if she belonged there by God’s own invitation. Driving him along the way. Jeff has since rededicated his life to Christ and now dedicates himself to church ministries, online ministries and authoring diverse books.

Book Description
As cops it’s sometimes difficult to maintain a positive outlook on life. You’re dealt every negative aspect that life has to offer, even on the inside of the Thin Blue Line. As Christians they’re even more scrutinized, not only on how they deal with others, but also how they deal with themselves. It’s exceptionally difficult to love others when everyone around you has nothing but contempt and hate for you, except for the few friends that you have on the inside of the Thin Blue Line. Daniel will reach a crossroad of faith and mental stability. He will have to make serious choices about his faith in Christ, his career and most of all his marriage. How we as Christians deal with the trials and tribulations of this life can best be told from a cop’s perspective. Cops have a code, a brotherhood that no other person can understand. They call it the Thin Blue Line for a reason. As Christians our stance in life is much the same. We can fold and not serve God, or we can take a stand and walk by faith. It’s also a code and a brotherhood. A brotherhood of God’s children. It can be equated as The Thin Blue Cross.

Book Description
The Christian Experience answers some of the questions most people ask about what it means to be a Christian. What do I have to do? Where do I start? What should I expect? Why should I go to church? Can I trust people in church? Why is there so much suffering in the world? There are two camps that will be discussed in this book while discussing Christianity: “The Milk and the Meat of the Word.” If you aren’t familiar with the expression “The Milk,” it represents new or ‘baby’ Christians who are just starting out in their relationship with Christ and need to feed on “The Milk” of the Bible. “The Meat” represents the mature Christians who are established in their relationship with Christ and feed on “The Meat” of the Bible which is its deeper meaning. The walk with Christ can be confusing for new Christians and mature Christians can become complacent or even misguided. Our goal in writing The Christian Experience is to discuss the different aspects of Christianity and for the reader to come away with a more in-depth understanding of the subject matter. It is not intended to offend anyone or represent the absolute authority of what we as the authors believe is the only and absolute path to Christianity. On that note if you are offended by a topic in this book then it is probably speaking to your heart. Take a knee and examine your walk with Christ. All aspects of The Christian Experience are biblically based and meant to encourage new Christians and at the same time edify mature Christians. Though this book cannot possibly cover everything, it will help you focus on a few rudimentary and a few in-depth topics and hopefully give you a more insightful perspective to help with your personal walk of faith in Christ. As with all aspects of the Bible and our walk with Christ we should follow Paul’s word to Timothy. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” II Timothy 2:15. KJV

Book Description
We live in a world full of challenges. The three graces can almost be seen as motors for Christian life in today's world, but the words faith, hope, and love have so many everyday uses that their technical, theological meanings are, for many, difficult to appreciate. Modern life also leaves many yearning for authenticity and meaning. Many religions have answered that need by calling to mind the image of a path. Always profound progressions, religious paths tend to be motivated either by practices (the act of walking the path) or focal points. Christianity has a focal point, an object, and it sees the three graces as distinctively content filled. The heart of this book is about helping people find the Christian path and their intellectual, emotional, and spiritual balance--an equilibrium that is sustained by a strong personal faith, an enduring hope for the future, and genuine love that will withstand the worst of times. It contributes to the category of Christian literature that provides a pattern for Christian living without surrendering the intellect to the more popular side of this genre.

Book Description
The odyssey of Michael, which began with his personal struggles about the truth of religious faith in Through Fire to Faith, continues in Through Horror to Hope. He is thrust into a crisis of faith which can only be resolved if he can discover the meaning of good and evil. Furthermore, he needs to become convinced that this world and his life are meant for good. The book begins with Michael’s sincere conviction that he has been touched by God and called to genuine faith. Then this faith is sorely challenged when a massacre occurs at his church and he must reconcile this mass murder with his hope in God as his savior. He deeply questions why he prays “Deliver us from evil” when such a terrible tragedy can occur. What he thought was his solid, secure trust in God begins to crumble under the weight of his faith crisis. Along the way, Michael is joined by his wife Emilee and his friends Matthew and Rose, who came to the United States to escape just such horrors with the civil war in Sierra Leone. The reactions to the church massacre by these and others whose lives intertwine with Michael’s all work to help Michael decide whether this world is good enough to bring a new life into it. Finally, Michael’s crisis of faith climaxes with his second inspirational personal encounter with Fr. David and his second challenging professional dispute with Dr. Dorothy Stingler. This novel provides the reader with a thrilling and profound experience in terms of good and evil and their impact on religious faith.
