DOWNLOAD EBOOKPlease God, Don't Call Me To Preach was the heartfelt prayer of a little boy, a Methodist minister's son, in Jackson, Mississippi. At age 12 a lonely childhood was transformed by summers at Lessidale Plantation and its loving Gerald family, with a lasting bond between three boys; Nelson, Clay, and Bus, the cook's son. Little did he hope that God would answer his prayer so dramatically: make Clay a physician. He worked once with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in the Montgomery Bus Boycott and locked horns with Gov. George Wallace, fighting for the rights of African Americans. Dr. King and Dr. Wells led this fight, which integrated health care in Alabama. He was one of the two Anglos in the congregation at the funeral of the four little girls killed at the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing. Dr. Wells headed for Cal Berkeley in the late '60's and continued OB-GYN practice and teaching career that would take him to medical schools in Louisiana, Alabama, Idaho, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and finally Arkansas. This memoir doesn't spare anyone, and some pompous souls may find their profiles unsettling.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Miracle of Belief Occurs Before The Miracle of Transformation” I wrote this book with all the mothers and fathers who are sometimes at a lost as to how to best guide their children through the difficult experiences of childhood and young adulthood in mind. Parenting is one of those assignments that is worth doing poorly at first, until you get better at the awesome privilege it is to nurture the souls, Jesus said, “Suffer little children, and forbid them not to come unto me: for such is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 19:14 (KJV). Parenting is the one job we do not want to get wrong, yet the reality is that we usually are not aware of our mistakes with our children until after we have made them. God knows I am probably the last person who should be offering anyone advice on parenting , because of all the mistakes I made as a father. I nevertheless persist in this endeavour because of what the former Prime Minister of Great Britain said about the benefits of mistakes -- “No man ever became great or good except through many and great mistakes.” Only what we put into raising our children can we expect to see them manifest. It is my hope that this small book, which features just a few of the lessons I have learned from the mistakes I have made and continue to make as a father, will help other parents become better at the job of nurturing the next generation of leaders and achievers

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR PRIZE 'Terrific fun' David Walsh, Sunday Times * * 'Thoroughly engaging' Washington Post A frank and revealing biography of legendary golf champion Phil Mickelson - who has led a big, controversial life - as reported by longtime Sports Illustrated writer and bestselling author Alan Shipnuck. Phil Mickelson is one of the most compelling figures in sports. For more than three decades he has been among the best golfers in the world, and his unmatched longevity was exemplified at the 2021 PGA Championship, when Mickelson, on the cusp of turning fifty-one, became the oldest player in history to win a major championship. In this raw and unauthorised biography, Shipnuck captures a singular life defined by thrilling victories, crushing defeats and countless controversies. Mickelson is a multi-faceted character, and all his warring impulses are on display in these pages: he is a smart-ass who built an empire on being the consummate professional; a loving husband dogged by salacious rumours; a high-stakes gambler who knows the house always wins but can’t tear himself away. Mickelson’s career and public image have been defined by the contrast with his lifelong rival, Tiger Woods. Where Woods is robotic and reticent, Mickelson is affable and extroverted, an incorrigible showman. In their early years together on Tour, Mickelson lacked Tiger’s laser focus and discipline, yet as Tiger’s career has been curtailed by scandal, addiction and a broken body, Phil sails on, still relevant on the golf course and in the marketplace. Phil is the perfect marriage of subject and author. Shipnuck delivers numerous revelations, from the true scale of Mickelson’s massive gambling losses to the secretive backstory of the Saudi golf league that Mickelson championed. But Phil also celebrates Mickelson’s random acts of kindness and generosity of spirit, to which friends and strangers alike can attest. Shipnuck has covered Mickelson for his entire career, allowing him to take readers inside the ropes with a thrilling immediacy and intimacy. The result is the juiciest and liveliest golf book in years - full of heart, humour and unexpected turns.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBooks 13-15: The New Rulebook & Pete Zendel Christian Suspense series. Book 13: HUNTED John Martinez had seen firsthand how dangerous to human life guns were when he was kidnapped and forced to live in captivity with guns held over his head. Working with the cops to assist with the rescue of others behind captivity, he hated guns. Now a free man and forced to flee his sister's home when danger follows his younger brother home, John did not expect their temporary shelter—the home of his sister's friend, Liberty—to be that of a gun lover. Trying to keep his brother safe, will he lose his heart to a woman who loves guns just as much as she loves him? Famous actress Liberty Stone was one woman nobody messed with. Rich, classy, beautiful, and confident, she was armed and knew how to protect herself when the need arose, thanks to multiple assaults she'd survived—assaults that turned her into a cold and unfeeling person, to protect her heart. When her friend, SSPD Officer Angel Martinez, requested temporary shelter at her Fortitude Homes Estate for her brothers amid a police case, Liberty readily obliged. What Liberty hadn't expected was a chance run-in with John, falling in love with a gun-hater with a tender heart, and an unplanned kiss leading John right into her locked-up heart. Together, will they find healing from pain and discover that God gives second chances and connects people in His time, in His way, and to fulfill His purpose—despite long-held prejudices? Book 14: COURAGEOUS SSPD detective Ladi Zoe was sure the dangerous mission to uncover the identity of the Hunter would be the end of her. Living under the constant fear of being outed, while performing duties that made serious criminal behavior seem elementary, she survived purely on the hope that her mission will be successful—and she will find out who the Hunter was. However, when she is assigned to a deadly mission which threatened the life of the man she'd secretly fallen in love with—Hughes Martinez, Officer Angel Martinez's baby brother whom she'd rescued—she is faced with the choice to save his life yet again and risk her own in addition to being unmasked. Will she choose to stay undercover and let him die to get the Hunter or will she accept for her cover to be blown, risk her own life all to save the life of the man she loved—who didn't know she loved him? Book 15: DEFENDED Hunted by dangerous elements, and barely escaping with her life, undercover police officer Ladi Zoe vanishes without a trace. With her whereabouts untraceable, she left behind a trail of evidence for dismantling a dangerous network of criminals, and the love of her life brokenhearted. But, her heroic actions only seemed to have stirred the hornets nest. Now, the bad guys want the SSPD destroyed.
