With more than 100 vintage photographs. Nothing in the history of Ft Lauderdale had greater impact in its prosperity, than the Naval Air Station (NASFL) established in 1942. Recognizing this fact, the Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Historical Association can be traced to one man: Allan McElhiney a former WWII sailor who devoted much of his life to preserve a part of history. When the war ended the base closed its doors. Progress was about to eradicate the past to make way for a new Airport, but thanks to the long fight of a visionary man who saw the significance of safeguarding a bygone era, a Naval Museum was established. Flight 19 is one of the great aviation mysteries. It flew out of NASFL in 1945 to vanish into the Bermuda Triangle. In addition, a 19 year old future US President lived at NASFL as a young Ensign to train as a torpedo/bomber pilot. This is the inspirational story of one man who's commitment to the cause of preservation has encouraged many to look into our past, to safeguard our future.

“If there were nothing else to record, history will surely serenade Ralph Cox for an unprecedented half century of missionary service in Japan! Cox was an innovator. He was one of the first to see the potential in short term missionaries. He maximized the potential, minimized the hazards of that approach, recruiting dozens of long-term missionaries from his short-term co-workers.” - Robertson McQuilkin, President Emeritus, Columbia International University and TEAM colleague of Ralph Cox, 1956 – 1968 “Ralph was an identity maker. His leadership was marked by his concern to be as close to the Word as possible. His leadership was also marked by his concern for each individual. Ralph influenced the church of Japan. It was a great privilege to know Ralph. I’m so thankful for the identity that he left in me, in TEAM and in the church of Japan.” - Tom Sloan, Former Chairman, The Evangelical Alliance Mission, Japan Field Mission “The ministry of Ralph and Stella is so helpful and challenging as it points the way as to what we are to do and what God will do! Stella used her Gospel cooking classes to reach out to ladies. Ralph trained individuals to pastor and plant churches, and to go to other countries as missionaries! Ralph and Stella are a great model of how to accomplish our mission-- don’t miss this one! What a privilege it has been for our church to support them.” - Frank Barker, Senior Pastor Emeritus, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama

Shift is a blind man’s vision of how he changed his life narrative from the impossible to the economically probable and in the process, moved from welfare to wealth. Blind from the age of 16, Russell Redenbaugh's achievement as a successful investor and economist, a Commissioner on the US Civil Rights Commission serving under three US Presidents and a black belt, three time gold medal jiu-jitsu world champion fighting sighted opponents, prove that if he can, anyone can. Most people think that their circumstances produce their narratives, but Russell shows it is their narratives that produce their circumstances. If you change your story, you change your future. Through a set of actions and behaviors, Russell demonstrates how anyone can "Shift Your Narrative" to produce more of what they care about in their personal life, career and money matters, starting today.

We are all seekers. Some find their path on pilgrimage to the Mahabodhi Temple in India or the Haji Ali mausoleum as they embark on a journey to Mecca; others find God at the burial site of St. James in the Cathedral de Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. Author and environmentalist Doug Alderson meets the Great Spirit through the ancient spiritual practice of walking. The Vision Keepers is the compelling true story of a seeker who, under the guidance of Bear Heart, a Muskogee Creek Indian and Medicine Man, finds unity with our nation’s native people and reconnects with the earth through profound and mysterious means. At a time when our global community is in great conflict, we can learn much from Native Americans. The Vision Keepers not only recounts the story of one man’s experience with native people and their spirituality, but it offers unique insight into the struggles of an entire culture, personal reconciliation, world peace, and preservation of the Earth and its ancient wisdom.
