If a poll were taken of Old Testament Jews on the birth of their Lord and Savior, what percentage do you think would have predicted that the cast of characters would be a virgin teenager betrothed to a lowly carpenter, barnyard animals, and stinky shepherds? Probably not many. In Do You See What I See? pastor Ross Parsley shows how God uses ordinary people to fulfill His plan and purpose. He gives a warm, humorous, and uniquely honest look into the nativity story. Along the way he highlights how God's favor and plans are often followed by dashed hopes, heartache, and disappointment. But he also shows that if we're faithful with what God puts in front of us we can accomplish the extraordinary.

In this sequel to the author's breakthrough novel, One Hard Day, US Air Force Lieutenant Cutler Walker is moving to California, where he will train as a pilot in the KC-135, the air force's intercontinental air-refueling aircraft. Having just returned to flying duty following his five-month hospitalization and rehabilitation, Walker gladly put the horrendous accident in which he and two others suffered life-changing consequences in his rearview mirror. His sixteen-year adventure takes him all over the US, Europe, Asia, and the Pacific. Along the way he is reunited with Baylee Madison, an air force colleague and former classmate at the University of Virginia, and they become inseparable. He and Baylee develop a close friendship with a most unlikely couple, and Walker has a falling-out with a close friend, ending a twenty-year friendship. With Baylee at his side and the Lord guiding him, Walker takes it all in stride, approaching his life with a new look, a better attitude, and an inner drive that takes him on a wild ride.
Learn the basics of Computer Science and programming by building software that runs in a standard web browser. This book uses the ubiquitous and popular JavaScript programming language (not to be confused with the Java programming language) as a basis for teaching, covering the basics of syntax and idioms sufficient to build simple interactive games. The book hits some highlights of computer science along the way, such as boolean algebra, recursive algorithms, and event-driven programming. All concepts are taught with beginners in mind, including the teacher (and is therefore great for teaching at home): complete explanations are given for every exercise, lab, and test question. If using this book as a high school text, it is designed to have a workload appropriate for a 1-credit 1-semester course, for students who have completed (or are taking) pre-algebra. In that setting, each chapter should take about a week to get through, with plenty of reading and hands-on learning every week. A midterm is provided at the end of weeks 5 and 10. Every chapter has a set of exercises to complete, again, with full solutions provided at the end of the book. I hope you enjoy what has been a fun book to write. The concepts taught here are sometimes simple, sometimes a bit mind-bending, and always powerful enablers for anyone who wants to learn to do just a little more with the devices we have all around us. I think it's worth the journey. I hope you do, too.
