Like many children in America, Michael White grew up without a father. He taught himself how to be a man—which meant turning to a life of crime. Michael ends up in prison, but while there, he makes the decision to change his life. He writes down the story of his past; once his sentence is over, things take a decidedly upward swing. Michael chronicles his life in a memoir, and his book sells nearly one million copies. He can’t believe his own luck, but he is happy to have turned a bad situation into a lucrative enterprise. He might have gone on living the clean life—but then he steps into Davie’s Bar-n-Grill, where he meets four beautiful women who are prepared to tear his world apart. Monica Sinclair is the ringleader; the other girls follow her lead. They’ve made a sport of seducing and ruining men, just for the fun of it. Michael has become their newest target, and he soon finds himself trapped in a seductive web of lust, deception, and murder. Will past indiscretions finally catch up with the girls this time, or will Michael end up another broken, battered victim of their cruel game?

This Book is based on the premise that the Bible is the objective Truth about created reality. Like a young child looking into a kaleidoscope, the picture of Christianity that we see in the world today is fragmented into an endless number of pieces and we struggle to put together a clear picture that makes sense. 2000 years of Church History, layers of Pagan Beliefs and Humanistic Philosophy have distorted and blurred the Bibles picture of the "Faith" that was taught by Jesus and the Apostles. In addition to that our innate resistance to "The Truth" is our biggest obstacle to embracing what is true about God, our selves and the Created Reality we live in and that makes coming to believe the Biblical Worldview at best very challenging. It is my hope that this book will help you establish an authentic Biblical Faith and bring the distorted, fragmented, kaleidoscopic picture of Christianity in the world today back into focus, as you continue your journey toward the gloriously wonderful "Eternal Kingdom of God."

Exempla are illustrative stories used by preachers to seize the attention of their congregations and to drive home a moral lesson. This book presents annotated translations from two collections of exempla, one Franciscan and one Dominican, put together in the British Isles around 1275. The two collections used are amongst the earliest to survive from the British Isles. The 270 exempla translated cover a wide range of topics, both ecclesiastical and secular, and offer vivid insights into medieval life and attitudes in the broadest sense. An introduction discusses the place of preaching in the medieval church, the development of preaching aids and the exemplum genre, the main topics covered by the exempla, the dating of the two collections translated and the use which the compilers made of their material, and how far exempla can be relied upon as historical evidence.
