What is your lifes purpose, your reason for being here, and how do you know what it is? Do you have a destiny, and, if so, how was that determined? How do you reach it? Are there choices, and if so, how does one make them? Is there a power which steers you down the right path toward your destiny, tells you which fork in the road to take? What difference in the grand scheme of things will your life make? The author asked himself the same questions, over and over, throughout most of his seventy-seven years, and only recently has he learned the answers. In When Destiny Comes to a Fork in the Road, Demus, the authors guardian angel, describes the authors thoughts, words, and actions as he travels down lifes road, seeking to discover his reason for being, his calling, his destiny. Share with him his happiness and sadness, emotions, indecision, uncertainty, discoveries, accomplishments, failures, his experiences, the people he met on his lifes journey and his quest to learn and to fulfill his destiny, and his eventual understanding of the meaning of his life.

The telephone's insistent ringing at three in the morning snatched Sam Workman from dreamless sleep. "Hello," he mumbled. "This is a warning," said a digitally altered voice. "Leave Betterton now! If you don't, you won't live long enough to regret it." "Who is this?" Sam angrily demanded to a dead line. "Unknown name, unknown number," blinked the call identifier. "Coward!" Workman growled and slammed down the receiver. The call was the first episode in a conspiracy to force Sam and his business, B&W Concrete, out of Betterton or destroy them. Followed were attempts to oust B&W from two construction projects, a hospital addition and an engine plant, totaling $400 million in construction costs to yield B&W $10 million profits. Sam retains attorney Penn Roman to stem the tide of disastrous actions drowning B&W in a flood of claims of incompetency and fraud and more threats and violence against Sam, Penn, and Penns family. When a testing lab employee working on the projects disappears, and the newspaper prints libelous articles condemning B&W, Penn and Sam find themselves entangled in a web of greed, deceit, violence, and murder. Courageously, they face the schemers in an explosive and telling trial to the finish.

"This book is an absolute MUST for every serious student of the Word of God and should be required reading for every prospective minister." --Rev. Dr. J. Ronald Schoolcraft, Advent Christian Church, Jacksonville, Florida Dead Men Talking is a clear and simple biblical guide for everyone who seeks to understand the real meaning of life and death. A pastor for more than thirty years, Thomas S. Warren II allows the Scriptures to speak for themselves. The most natural teachings of the Bible, he says, reveal a distinct difference between God's Word and popular traditions. Using the Bible as his guide in separating biblical truth from cultural consensus, and fact from fiction, Warren examines such contemplative questions as: Will there be a Second Coming? What is resurrection? What really happens when we die? What is eternal life? To help readers further explore these and other important questions, Warren has incorporated a study guide that lends hands-on practicality to the ideas and issues covered in his book. If you are ready to search for answers--even if it means questioning everything you've ever learned--then Dead Men Talking is the perfect companion on your journey to spiritual discovery.
