Book Description
God Had a Plan begins with a genealogy patterned much like the ones found in the Bible, with some early family history interspersed as was available. Once the genealogy is established, the author offers an examination of the seed, referring to the look see into the lives of those who produced the offspring in review. The life and times of the author and his beloved wife Marcella are explored from cradle to adulthood, journeying through his teaching positions and her position as soprano soloist with the Back to the Bible broadcast in Lincoln, Nebraska. Their union of husband and wife was unquestionably a divine appointment, as God truly had a plan. Indeed, education played a big part of Gods plan in each of their lives, though the road to the doctorate at the Eastman School of Music turned out to be a long, arduous trip involving many perils. Gods plan saw the writer through that rigorous quest with scriptural promises that, when claimed, brought deliverance. More than just a simple chronology of dates and facts, this touching autobiography about the authors faith offers guidance and hope to all his readers.

Book Description
This is a stirring novel which deals reverently but realistically with the fascinating life and era of St. Augustine, one of the most remarkable men of all time. In his vigorous and inimitable style, Louis de Wohl tells the story of St. Augustine's transformation from a vain, sensual youth to the brilliant, devout writer and theologian - the man who conquered himself as completely as he did the adversaries of the Church - whose literary and philosophical masterpieces were to dominate Western thought for a thousand years. He has carefully re-created the exciting historical background of the time - the turbulent atmosphere of the Roman Empire in the last days of decadence - skillfully weaving together the personalities whose lives closely affected Augustine: Monica, his saintly and heroic mother; majestic Ambrose, Bishop of Milan; and many others whom lend richness and depth to the life story of this great Doctor of the Church. Here is a novel that glistens with the imaginative and vivid drama that epitomized St. Augustine's tumultuous life, presented with a master story-teller's characteristic flair for graphic description, sensitive portraiture and fascinating historical lore.

Book Description
The Main Thing: The relationship between family structure and crime is so strong that controlling for family configuration erases the relationship between race and crime and between poverty and crime. This conclusion shows up time and again in the literature. Fatherlessness in America and most pervasively among young African American Males is devastatingly genocidal to the health and sustainability of the Black Family. I HAD GAVE UP, a poignant true story told in his own vernacular unfortunately is the death chant of millions of people of a darker hue across this nation. Xavier Tobias Thornton's depiction of himself as a toddler watching his father loading his truck with his stuff, but mostly taking away with him Xavier's only chance at transcending the tragedy of being born black, male and poor in America. It is my prayer that through this biographical account of a bright, "uneasily broken" child of God's horrendous ascension toward wholeness, an epiphany of humanity is realized. It is my hope that this book and other literary documentaries will serve as cadence in the march of a time when collectively we faced and conquered a plaque on our nation and reaped the fruits of restored families. "I'D Had Gave Up- Is about this author who spent almost 11 years of his life behind Bars, by the age of 28 years old he'd existed almost half of his life in prison." It is also about the 65 million fatherless incarcerated males like him and the millions to follow, if we don't find the social antidote to end the social travesty of fatherlessness.
