This manuscript is a piece of work which has been in the making for approximately 10 years. It started off as small speeches which I delivered to a congregation of multicultural individuals. I documented these speeches on paper and after 5 years of collecting them I asked myself how do I continue to benefit the world with this knowledge. It was a conscious decision to organize these speeches in a way which would exemplify the teachings of Islam and call all those who read it from the ancient religious practices of Judaism and Christianity to their natural progression of Islam. In this book I take passages from the Torah, Gospel, Medical, scientific, social, and Islamic sources to prove that we as humanity have been called To return back to the ways of Abraham. This Book may fall under the genres of religion however I hope to show how science and religion are connected. This book has its sources for each fact as well as a reference where someone who's interested may go back and do their own research. My target audience is all who are interested in the Kingdom of God In this life as well as the next. This book is specifically an explanation of the 5 principles of Islam explained from the different sources. My plan is to follow up this book with another one for a person who decides to enter the fold of Islam On how to view life from a psychological, economical, and sociological standpoint.

It has been nearly two years since fate led Katiann to a Native American village, and eventually into the arms of her true love and future tribal leader, Mat, and the family she had always wanted. Unfortunately, their happiness is short-lived when they realize there is more to their pasts than they originally believed. The Grand Spirit (Tika) has entered the final stages of fulfilling the prophecy of the spirit world, leaving the tribespeople unprotected. While Katiann works to keep Tika safe until his transformation is complete, Mat struggles to protect the tribe from the destructive Dark Spirit who has come to convince the Grand Spirit to join his side. But what Katiann does not know is that her friends, who have not heard from her since she left home to temporarily live in the Native American village, have launched a determined search for her. As the Dark Spirit terrorizes her people, Katiann, who does not want to be found, faces an agonizing decision. Should she abandon her tribe to save the people she has grown to love or fight for the right to stay? In this suspenseful tale, a white woman and her Native American husband must face the challenges between good and evil as the Dark Spirit arrives in their village to unleash destruction.

For many people at midlife the pace of life is so frenetic and full that we do not take the time to “let the land lie fallow.†But it is especially at this juncture that many want to ask some hard questions of God and of ourselves. Leonora Tubbs Tisdale presents this devotional book of reflections to help people at midlife reflect and navigate through some of these questions. The fifty meditations in The Sun Still Rises take the reader on a journey through challenges that many people face at midlife, such as job loss, the quest for personal and vocational identity, illness (cancer), war, a parent's dementia, and the death of friends. It also traces the joys that come with rediscovering nature, relishing long-term friendships, and growing older. Each entry ends with a Scripture citation and questions for reflection.
