A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0+ out of 10.0 stars

The Mindrulers is an award-winning 3-book series by Steve Pillinger, a multi-published author, Bible translator, history buff, and linguist.

In Book 1 of this epic Christian suspense saga (The Mindruler), lives collide in a grand battle taking place on another world. A student, a lecturer, a web designer and a retired teacher are forever changed when they find themselves in an unknown reality. In this alien place they are drawn into a deadly battle against the evil Mindruler and his minions. These overlords control people’s thoughts, thereby governing their every move and making them slaves through this ultimate invasion of people’s psyche and self-will. Freedom is at stake and reality will be forever altered if the Mindrulers succeed.  

Imagine waking up and finding yourself in another reality, another paradigm, one you don’t know how to escape from! Fantastically written, the book unfolds the characters’ daily lives, carefully developing each of them in a way that draws readers in and keeps them on edge, glued to the page, wondering what happens next, as these four individuals discover the strange and confusing new reality of an alien world. Long-awaited prophecy is being fulfilled in them, though they struggle to believe this at first. But gradually they discover that mindbending is real, and find themselves embroiled in medieval battles with swords and armor. Yet victory awaits them as they learn to rely on One whose power is greater than the Mindruler, despite his use of a nation’s resources together with spiritual and mental oppression to achieve his goals.

Guided by a brilliant writer, one will find oneself engaged along with the characters in this epic conflict on a faraway world that holds deep, dark secrets. Reluctantly to begin with, these very ordinary people from Earth learn to accept their role as “Restorers of the Way”; and as they travel from crisis to crisis, they begin to grow into the true Restorers they are intended to be. But they soon realize that the weapons of their warfare are not those one would normally expect. Special ‘instruments’ help them with their task, and they discover that the only way out is to go through! The author has included wonderful maps to illustrate the journeys that make up this grand adventure.

This is a well thought-out and fantastically creative book, surely a movie in the making! It awakens fantasy and portrays the age-old dragon’s attempts to steal, kill and destroy. Christians understand that this spiritual battle is real: the author has presented a breathtaking and harrowing look inside prevalent evil, and created a masterpiece of fiction that takes readers to an imaginary world that is both similar and unique, like and yet unlike our own world.

Highly recommended for young men and women who love Christian fantasy fiction and adventure within a truly epic and heroic saga, intertwining spiritual battles of good versus evil.

Magnificently done and highly entertaining!

About My Father’s Business,

Title: About My Father’s Business
By: Elliot Brent
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0 Stars

In his book, About My Father’s Business, Elliot Brent as a minister of God’s Word reveals deep insight into the purpose of God and coming to know God by faith.

This is a 3-part series of his own testimony blended with a comparison of Satan’s role, as the Lightbearer. What comes forth is a powerful dichotomy that offers readers understanding of the Kingdom of God versus the kingdom of darkness. These two kingdoms can be seen in our everyday world, in nature, and every purpose under Heaven. Yet, one has a choice - There are two-paths, the broad path, or the straight and narrow path. One leads to destruction, the other (the straight and narrow) to everlasting life. In his book, the author exposes the works of darkness, giving sound Biblical instruction and Scripture, that will enlighten the understanding of one’s own heart towards God’s purpose and bring them into their purpose “doing my Father’s business” in the Kingdom of God. 

This is a fascinating and powerful read that offers truth, life, and an understanding of deception in the world, giving insight into God’s way versus the world’s way. His writing on the fruit of the Spirit also gives further understanding of the exact opposite, which is the way of evil, following after darkness. 

Short chapters lead the way to faith in God, as the fall of man is exposed, shedding light on God from the beginning – this is key in his book, and in one’s life. He explains this discovery, and reveals a coming to faith in such patriarchs as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, as the fulfillment of God’s Word. With such chapters as: a foreword, the Lightbearer, Lions, Man, The Wilderness: Abraham, The Wilderness: Moses and the Children of Israel, The Wilderness: John the Baptist and Jesus Christ, and Names offers to all the mystery that surrounds God, knowing Him and coming to Him in faith, while revealing those Biblical characters journeys of faith. 

In offering stories of Abraham, Moses, the Children of Israel and ending with Jesus’ journey on Earth, as snapshots, or an overview of God’s dealing with men, as He is alone God, and was present before the Earth began gives deep understanding to laymen, Christians, and perhaps to those who deny Christ. 

This book comes highly recommended to those searching for understanding - in God, in their faith, and their purpose under the Heaven’s, leading others to be about my Father’s business.
