"In ways that I could not yet imagine, being at war would challenge my beliefs, confirming some and forcing me to rethink others, and being a veteran would forever affect and enrich my relationships with other people. On that March night in 1968 I did not yet understand that if I lived through my year in Vietnam a coming home process would follow, one that would continue a lifelong spiritual journey ..."--Back cover.

Book Description
Perhaps no psalm is more widely known than Psalm 23. Spoken by David during a time of great stress and difficulty, it summons us to lie down in green pastures and walk thru the valley of the shadow of death. Yet so often it seems we do just the reverse, lying down in the valley and fixating on the danger, fear, and uncertainty. We wonder where God has gone and why he doesn't make things right, never considering that perhaps what we perceive as a spiritual trial is actually an invitation from God. In this inspirational examination of Psalm 23, Heath Adamson asks the provocative question: What if the green pasture and valley of the shadow of death is the same place? Uncovering the rich historical and spiritual context of the shepherd's psalm, he explores how God has provided a place of rest for each of us, even in the times of unrest, uncertainty, moral ambiguity, and fear.

Book Description
Waipio Valley: A Polynesian Journey from Eden to Eden recounts the remarkable migrations of the Polynesians across a third of the circumference of the earth. Their amazing journey began from Kalana i Hauola, the biblical Garden of Eden located along the shore of the Persian Gulf, extended to the Indus River Valley of ancient Vedic India, to Egypt where some ancestors of the Polynesians were on the Israelite Exodus, through Island Southeast Asia and across the Pacific Ocean. They voyaged thousands of miles in double-hull canoes constructed from hollowed-out logs, built with Stone Age tools and navigated by the stars of the night sky. The Polynesians resided on numerous tropical islands before reaching Waipio Valley, the last Polynesian Garden of Eden. Due to their isolation on the islands of the Pacific Ocean, Polynesian religious and cultural beliefs have preserved elements from mankinds past nearer the beginning of human history. Polynesian mythology includes genealogical records of their divine ancestors that extends back to Kahiki, their mystical land of creation and ancient divine homeland created by the gods, epic tales of gods and heroes that preserved records of their ancient voyages, oral chants such as the Hawaiian Kumulipo contain evolutionary creation theories that reflect modern scientific thought, and the belief in a Supreme Creator God.

Book Description
SYNOPSISThis volume is laced with notions of reincarnation and afterlife. For that same reason, WAR BETWEEN SOULS OVER FIRST UNIVERSE is a supernatural story about the pure, elder immortal souls,who want nothing more than to teach their young delinquent souls how to earn immortality and stop reincarnating their tainted demonic souls. Likewise, this book confirms that you cannot separate the soul from the notion of the afterlife. That afterlife consists of reincarnating demonic souls-Hellitheons. Hellish as they are, they refuse to obey the Creators. They have reincarnated themselves in bodies (human and otherwise) for billions and billions of years. In addition, they are lingering here on earth, pretending to be MOVING ON trying to take over what does not belong to them. Reincarnation is not a rarity. It is a daily occurrence. Remember, Plato as well as Christianity tells us-in essence- that the soul is the power that runs the body/machine and that souls are capable of reincarnating/recollecting. Tiffany is telling you that before that body is worn out its souls are tormented, manipulated and even ripped out forcing displaced souls to transfer their energy (power-essence) into another body-be that animal or human.
