This series is entitled: Prominent Peaks of the Pilgrimage. Divided into two books, this twenty-lesson course traces the journey of the people of Israel, from out of the land of Egypt, into the land of Canaan. We will visit the people of Israel at the prominent peaks of their pilgrimage. Our main texts will come from the bible books of Exodus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Joshua. We shall see that the events that befell the children of Israel at the mountain sites are the very things that we have to expect on our pilgrimage. The lessons that the people of Israel had to learn are the very same lessons that our loving Lord would have us learn also. So, it behooves us to take a close look at the Lord's people and their pilgrimage, so that we can be better fit for our pilgrimage, for there are many pitfalls, dangers, and perils. Another major purpose of this course is to look at different aspects of the doctrine of salvation. Every keyword in this course brings out a new revelation concerning biblical salvation. Biblical salvation covers more than just the regeneration of the human spirit. Many struggles in the lives of Christians can be traced to unfamiliarity with the doctrine of salvation. If we do not see all that the Lord has done in salvation, then we will have unnecessary struggles. The doctrine of salvation permeates this entire course. We will turn salvation over and look at the subject in all its fullness. God is only interested in complete salvation. God is interested in salvation that delivers the sinful man: spirit, soul, and body; past, present, and future; penalty, power, and presence. That is what God's business is: complete salvation. These two books containing twenty chapters/lessons can be read privately, or they can be taught in an audience setting.

The conclusion of all man's efforts to describe life, are in the words of Solomon… vain. We can give a description of feeling but the description has no happiness, sadness, or fear. It has no courage, no anger ,and no despair. Our description does not feel at all. Feeling can only grow and live in the heart of man and God. So come with me on a journey that begins in the shadow of my memories and will end in the Son's light. The bits and pieces of my life that together form who I am and what God has designed that I am to be. You may find yourself in many parts of my story, perhaps we have more in common than we know, for God is the same God for me that He is for you. God touched me and wants to touch you…
An epic story needs an epic process for its creation: ten years in the jungles of research and on the stormy seas of composition; two years in the doldrums of searching for a literary agent; three years of the torture of rejection slips; seven years in its own isolated centre within the void... But now, at last, the tale has been liberated from its Purgatory. The Purgatory that it is. The journey now completed in its first part, is allowed to reveal itself: across two vast oceans, unto worlds unknown. Even death itself must be challenged. Purgatory is about our greatest dreams. It tells of the attempts to discover the great south continent of Australia, in search of the secret of Eternal Life. Its anti-hero is an alchemist explorer, in search of the greatest secret that only a few may possess. The mystery that only Purgatory will reveal. Purgatory is an epic and romantic adventure, a book of hope and failure set in a world of love and hate. Purgatory is an adventure in which dream becomes nightmare; a fantasy in which myth becomes real. If you want to go there, really go there... Purgatory is your only option.
