10.0 out of 10.0 stars

World War S: The Silence Begins (Book 1) and The Servants of the Dragon (Book 2) by Stephen Paul Thomas combine elements of a science fiction thriller novel with a religious twist that is an intense page turner ~ CBM Christian Book Reviews.

Set sometime in the near future, the world has become a place of darkness. On the edge of economic and social collapse, key elements of society have changed: no Christianity allowed and the pursuit of seeking the divine through other means is elevated to a worldwide phenomenon. Seeking diviners and fortunetellers offer an escape for those upon the Earth, an escape tailored to meet their fleshly desires, leading them away from truth and into deception.

Two key characters, Josh and Julie, are the mainstay characters, along with other side events simultaneously occurring. Josh is a lighthearted boy with an amazing prophetic and revelatory ability. Julie is an ER doctor and physiologist whose focus has become more of an experiment to understand the nature of her clients’ Near Death Experiences (NDE). Her inquires are rooted in explaining the connection of the mind, soul and afterworld upon the cessation of life.

Heart pounding, riveting, and full of suspense, this novel is fast-paced and although a fiction novel, the scenarios depicted seem to be a plausible future considering world events, i.e., persecution of the Saints and a false religion that explodes. What would the world look like without the truth of God’s Word? Being a Christian is outlawed and it seems the world is on the edge of collapse. The author paints a vivid picture that blends elements of science fiction, demonic entanglement and the spiritual world that shed light into World War S.

Intriguing, this spiritual world war sounds vaguely familiar - What if the world was really like this?  And we are already living in this time or on the brink of total economic and social collapse, which brings such deception, demonic oppression and anarchy? All questions you can explore within this “brutally good,” “The reality of the demonic,” “Prophetic,” and “Genious” book.

A highly recommended author and series to follow! Quite unique.

From Alpha to Omega

From Alpha to Omega: An Overview of the Bible by Stanley D. Rasberry offers to readers a “short handbook of the Bible” to assist readers in understanding the Bible, from beginning to end. Rightly named, From Alpha to Omega, (in Greek meaning “the beginning” and “the end”) the author begins with the book of Genesis through the book of Revelation, 66 books covered in all. Grouped into 15 separate sections and a List of Tables, the author has made the Bible easy to understand. His purpose is to help readers know time periods, meanings and messages, the authors of the relevant sections and how this intertwines with us today in this modern-day age. Readers will come to understand the Bible as a book of prophecy that has told the beginning and the end of the human race, giving instructions on how to live, the origin of sin, man and the many centuries that have passed since the beginning of time. The author states, “With it in hand, the reader can see the Bible with fresh eyes.”(p.v).

This is a must-read and complimentary to anyone wanting to understand the meaning of life, their purpose with focus on The Old and New Covenants, the Gospels, Jesus, and God’s divine plans for humanity and the future End Time scenario. With such sections as: Alpha: Jesus and the Eons, Two Men: Job and Mel, Chosen People, Escape from Egypt, Covenants, Laws and Sacrifices, Promised Land, Three Kings, Wisdom and Songs, Six Empires, Two Captivities, One Restoration, The Gospels, The New Church, Instructions to the Growing Church, Omega: The Revelation of Jesus, with discussions on the Early Church years and study group sessions, the author has given a complete overview. Additional Tables give valuable information such as: The Twelve Tribes of Israel, The Ten Commandments, the Feasts and Festivals, The Judges, Psalms Themes, Abbreviated Timelines, The Kings after Solomon, and so much more that add to the scope of the book.

With the inclusion of the original Greek in sections the author begins with Scripture and introduces succinctly and concisely each historical event in the corresponding book of the Bible. Suggested reading is to read each section. Then, if desired, read the referenced Bible material covered in the Bible (i.e., Genesis, and so on). Designed for the mature and new Christian alike, this handbook is an excellent resource that makes understanding the Bible, easy, convenient and fascinating.

Highly, highly recommended for all Christians, pastors, Bible instructors, lay teachers and counselors, Bible study groups or individuals seeking to better understand the Bible and God’s divine blueprint for planet Earth and all of humanity. Condensed and concise (only 222 pages), this book would also be a good book for professors to add to their list of required reading in Bible schools and degree programs.

With a general synopsis, the author relates Bible prophecy in an easy-to-read book of what Jesus said to His Disciples on the Mount of Olives as they asked about the end of the age in Matthew 24. “. . . tell us then, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” (Matthew 24:3)

Taking readers through his belief of when the time clock started to tick (1948), the author magnifies Scripture, revealing a journey through Bible prophecy of the End Times without complicated overuse of Scripture. Offering faith, and hope in Jesus, this book Is an excellent read to obtain a grasp of what Jesus said as He spoke to His Disciples about the coming end of the age.

Ministry to Warriors

Tending the Warrior Soul by Louis Harrison - In war there are traumas to the soul that are not assuaged for the warrior by even the most excellent psychological care, medical interventions, and official support programs. Tending the Warrior Soul helps to advance understanding of this soul damage, and offers support, encouragement, lessons from personal experience, counsel, challenge, and resources to those God has called to care for warriors' souls, as well as to the warriors themselves and their loved ones. 

"Ministry to war experienced troops begins and ends with a servant's heart. We must 'remake' our worldview, expand our theological reference points, and accommodate our civilized views about violence, cruelty, right and wrong to the uncivilized applications of war. Neither God nor His commandments change, for these are the anchor points, trustworthy and sure. 

... Teaching people to sort through the reality of God while sifting through the ashes of soul, spirit, and mind burned in the consequences of war is not 'routine' business. Ministry to warriors is transformative." From Foreword, by Colonel Mike Hoyt, Chaplain, U.S. Army, Retired. 

Lou Harrison never dreamed of "writing a book," and was embarrassed when it was suggested. The thoughts he had been writing down during his years of ministry were for his own understanding and growth in ministry to combatants. His words, advice and insight have been tested for accuracy and usefulness through feedback from war-experienced friends, extending from young grunts to ranking line officers and chaplains. ~ You may get your copy of Tending the Warrior Soul at Amazon or in Kindle as a download.

A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO DREAM INTERPRETATION

CBM Press Release - The Splitting of the Adam: It’s Time to Awaken!

The Splitting of the Adam:
It’s Time to Awaken

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Waynesville, Ohio – Author and teacher, Don Felumlee, releases his new book: The Splitting of the Adam: It’s Time to Awaken!

Intriguing and Insightful, Don Felumlee writes a powerful book, exploring the highly debated subject of the coming of the Lord ~ CBM

Written to expose the word of truth, revealing that the Bible “interprets itself,” thus unveiling a journey to spiritual maturity for the Bride of Christ into the image of Christ. Stating that those who believe are called to become spiritually mature, revealing a need to utter abandonment in the Lord. The author makes it abundantly clear that it is the Harvest that is first and foremost on the Lord’s mind. Therefore, he sounds a great awakening call – like a Trumpet - to the sleeping Church. With prophetic insight and keen scriptural study, he presents to readers the spiritual ascension of Jesus’ Bride-as the image of Christ- and brings a Biblical understanding of what that will look like.

Written to those who understand that the Lord requires a surrendered heart, mind and soul, Felumlee points to a great awakening coming to shake His Church, as we approach the coming of the Lord, that will be encompassed by the hope and power of the Kingdom that is available to EVERY BELIEVER.

With a multi-faceted approach, author and teacher Don Felumlee speaks on the subject of maturity and the End Times, debunking traditional beliefs on such subjects as:  The Rapture, The Great Tribulation, the Bride of Christ, offering the importance of teachings from the Bible and Jesus’ parables on His appearing and the Ten Virgins.

This book opens eyes and hearts to understanding that a “Splitting of the Adam” must occur as the author states, offering a fresh and divine perspective. Fascinating, Don Felumlee’s new book brings revelation of the Word and deep scriptural truths, recommended for new and mature believers alike.   

As an author, teacher and one who has studied his Bible for many years, holding a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from Ohio State and a Diploma from Rhema Correspondence Program in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Don Felumlee wants believers to know power that is available to them through Christ in the here and now.

Don Felumlee

He states, “What Satan is most afraid of, is that sooner or later, every believer will ultimately discover the power of the Kingdom in the right here and now!”  His purpose is to become a voice to all who would heed Christ’s call to His End Time Church, stating that, “his eternal purpose and calling has grown ever so abundantly clear: to become a third-day battering ram against the lifeless traditions of present-day Christendom so that the image of God can be gloriously reformed within every believer!” 

He, his wife, Stacy, and their six, loving children currently reside in the small, historic village of Waynesville, Ohio.

The Splitting of the Adam: It’s Time to Awaken! available at Amazon and in Kindle.

Christian Author Press Release

FLINT, MICHIGAN – Paul G. Tremewan releases,In My Mind: A Faith Journey through Rough Seas ~ GIVING HOPE TO OTHERS THAT ARE SUFFERING.

Paul G. Tremewan writes a heart-touching tribute to God, to family, and to living during the most trying of times. Confined in the chains of a bedridden and dying body, Paul G. Tremewan, did the only thing he could, write to others to inspire them. His poems and stories reflect his thoughts and prayers of the scripture verse - 2 Corinthians 4:16, “So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.”

Declaring Jesus Christ as Lord of all, Paul G. Tremewan’s poems and stories have been put in this faith-filled memoir, so they might be preserved. His insights from his deathbed offer teaching, wisdom and inspire and give life to a dying world.  

Giving hope for the faith journey, his book also sheds light on God’s Word, hope, prayer, nature, peace, relationships and his many teaching experiences, some humorous, stories as a teacher of young middle school kids.

Paul G. Tremewan was also an avid outdoorsman, writer, carpenter (and even a Civil War enthusiast who enjoyed reenactments of the Civil War) that loved to give to others and as one who appreciated life, he reminds us all of the meaning of counting one’s blessings in such a temporal and fading world.

Additionally, his son, Robert Tremewan, writes the forward and states, “My dad, being the loving,

caring soul he was, would have been quite thrilled and honored to have his writings published, so as to give comfort or inspiration to those who may need it. It is my hope that this book can help anyone suffering from terminal illness find peace, and even if in but a small way help in the fight against ALS. 

This book is dedicated to the memory of my dad, Paul George Tremewan, and to those in spiritual need into whose hands this book may find its way. May they be at peace.”

If you know of anyone suffering from hopelessness or a terminal illness, these prayers, poems and endearing short stories written from the most humbling of places comes highly recommended! This a rare gem, that most-likely you will remember as one of those books to remember and that changed your life. In My Mind: A Faith Journey through Rough Seas at Amazon or in Kindle.

A Select Study on America’s Christian Origin

America’s Founding Fathers and the Bible: A Select Study on America’s Christian Origin by Stephen A. Flick, Ph.D. shares America’s rich biblical history and Christian heritage. 

Focusing on the American Revolution and afterwards, the author writes that America was founded on Christian principles and biblical practices that our Founding Fathers instituted, stemming from the formation of our government and the Continental Congress. Unwaveringly the author also reveals contrary claims by secularists and irreligionists that America was founded and “arose from the barrenness of secularism,” give way to an intriguing book that gives insight into America’s beginnings, formation as a nation and the underlying Christian legacy of America as a nation.

Divided into three sections: The Continental Congress and the Bible, Three Founding Fathers on the Bible, After the American Revolution, Conclusion: American Renaissance and coupled with three Reading Sections -  Defense of the use of the Bible as a SchoolBook, President of Congress Starts Bible Society & By the Bible or By the Bayonet, the author sheds light on the legacy of freedom, commitment to the Christian faith and the Bible, that helps readers understand and presents a brief glimpse into the motivations and truths from which our Founding Fathers relied upon.

With this perspective in mind, this book also provides viewpoints propagated from American Academia, jurisprudence and other disciplines that seem to ignore the facts. Further giving an overview of the initial thirteen colonies that sparked America’s growth and the first decrees of fasts and thanksgivings originally declared, coupled with the ensuing American Revolution, the author shows that America is a country that is nationally based upon the Bible. As the author states,“Rather, both private and public writings overwhelmingly demonstrate that America's Founding Fathers intended and did establish American government upon biblical principles and practices.” 

This simple, yet historically accurate read comes highly recommended to all Americans, Patriots, Christians, college students and to the general public that serves as a reminder to get back to the foundational principles our country was founded on. Knowing your heritage and history is important and this book presents a keen understanding of “how” our great nation came to be. Concise and to the point, factual information presents and relates the importance of the Christian faith and the Bible in America.  History’s past can be confusing, yet this book is one of those books every American should read, know and understand. It is our privilege, duty and honor to take a stand for what was so costly – our freedom.

CBM Christian Book Marketing Provides Information On Christian Book Signings

Various Ways That You Can Market Your Christian Books to Christian Bookstores, Churches, Local Bookstores and Beyond?

Weekly we at CBM get asked this question.  How do I market my book to Churches, Bookstores and even Christian Ministries. Where do I begin?

In a nutshell, there are many answers to that question. However, let's focus on the basics and the most important ways to accomplish marketing your book to Churches and Bookstores.

Putting On Successful Book Signings

Table book signings are by far the best way to open the door with regards to making a connection with a Church or Bookstore and especially for the first time author. Book signings are personal, upfront and book store customers really like visiting a book signing table, meeting an author and getting a signed copy of their book. This is good for the bookstore also, as it adds something of interest for it's customers. 

Get The Process Rolling 

• Send a letter of introduction that shares about you as author and your book.
• Request a book signing event at the church or bookstore.
• Offer to donate a portion of the book sales to the church, church youth group or other inner church ministry. 
• For bookstores, offer to either give a percentage to the bookstore, or donate a percentage to a local charity of their choice. 
• Have a raffle for a few free books. Make the event fun.
• Perform follow up communications by phone.

Goal Setting ~ From experience helping authors in the past set up book signings at local churches and bookstores, the average sales per event averaged 200 to 300 books. Considering the profit margin on the book sales was right at $7.00 00 to $9.00 per author purchased copy, that's not a bad payday for talking with others in Christ, sharing views and signing books.

This further promotes you as a local author. Once you get your first book signing under your belt at a local church or bookstore. It gives you the ability to share that with other potential bookstore managers or churches. 

Take pictures of your first event so that you can add such to your author media package or scrapbook. Ask the local church or bookstore manager of your first event if you can use them as a reference when the book event concludes. A successful book signing event recommendation just adds to your portfolio. 

Get Ready, Go:

First you need some sort of media package that you can send either by email or through the mail services. Your media package should be as follows:

• A professionally detailed letter of introduction and request for a book signing.
• A professionally written Press Release that carries a name of Integrity within the Christian Book Industry.

* Contact CBM Christian Book Marketing for further information on creating a more professional media package.

You can get very detailed in creating a Author's Media Package; however, don't let that intimidate you. A simple Author's Media Package can open a door just as much as an extravagant Author's Media Package can.

Sending The Author's Media Package

• Through the postal services.
• By email.
• In person. ( For local churches in the area, you might consider making contact in person. If your budget permits offer a free copy of your book to the person that you speak with. 

Who To Contact At The Church Or Local Christian Bookstore?

• Address your letter of introduction to the Senior Pastor of the church. This will insure that either the Senior Pastor received the media package or that it will be placed in the right hands. Most Senior Pastors have secretaries that process incoming mail for the Senior Pastor. Therefore, it should get into the right hands.
• The Bookstore Manager at your local bookstore.

My First Book Signing. Promote It.

Yes, with the church or bookstores' permission and some local newspapers and radio stations will run the announcement for free. Simply contact your local newspaper of Christian radio station and ask.

The Importance of Follow Up

Within 7 days to 10 working days of sending the Author's Media Package to the local churches in your area ( you can determine how many miles you are willing to travel ). The next step would be to follow up with a personal phone call and perform some follow up with regards to the media package that you sent. This of course is only necessary if the church has yet to contact you.

Expanding Your Kingdom's Online Presence

In presenting yourself as a Christian author, it is also recommended that you build a professional online presence in having an author's site. Within this, you can share the site address in your corresponding letters and Media Package. This provides the person that you are making contact with the option to visit your author's site and find out more about you as author and your book.

When The Day Arr ives

Every authors situation is different. However, in a nut shell your book signing table and display is very important. Contact us by email and we will send you some basic information on how to create a great book signing display that will fit into your budget.
