DOWNLOAD EBOOKRuminations is a collection of poems that were all written in 2021. Covid-19 was ravaging the world and most of us were stuck at home. The first poem, “Sweetheart”, was written on my wedding anniversary. Typically, I go to our backyard to make a rose bouquet for my wife. This year, there were no roses in the garden. Fearing how my wife would react prompted me to write this poem. I shared the poem with my siblings who were all taken aback that I could write poetry. They encouraged me to write more. And my journey in verse began. I cannot say I am a poet but I did discover that I was able to take everyday life situations and put them in verse. Hence the title “Ruminations, Flashes of Thoughts, Sentiments and Emotions”. I then shared with other family members and friends and the reaction was encouraging. I also started blogging. I now have written just under 300 poems in 2021. Not sure if this will be a lifelong passion or not. Time will tell. But I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I have enjoyed writing them.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA fresh look at the meaning of Jesus' parables for Christian living today. The parables recorded in the Gospels are central for an understanding of Jesus and his ministry. Yet the parables are more than simple stories; they present a number of obstacles to contemporary readers hoping to fully grasp their meaning. In this volume, thirteen New Testament scholars provide the background necessary to understand the original context and meaning of Jesus' parables as well as their modern applications, all in a manner easily accessible to general readers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat happens when Gaia—a.k.a. Mother Nature—finally meets Mr. Right...but she absolutely can't tell him who she really is? I have had it with everyone today! This world is full of fools and mortals, and not a single one of them is listening to me! I told every paranormal that never revealing their supernatural powers to humans is paramount—once humans get a whiff of our abilities, it's game over; everyone wants a miracle. Well fine, if they want to keep breaking rules, they can handle the fallout without me. I'm on vacation. I really wanted some time alone, to go to the Puerto Rican rain forest and get back to basics. Commune with nature, consider my next move, give everyone time to miss me and realize that I'm right (as always). I never expected to find a handsome surgeon scouring the jungle for natural remedies. It sounds like he needs my help. Maybe I'll just whip up some miracles for him. He's going to be so pleased! Turns out Dr. Aaron Samuels wasn't so pleased after all. In fact, he was rather furious. But I can still fix this. Doesn't he know who I am?! Oh, wait, of course he doesn't—being mortal complicates everything! But if I'm going to get my guy, maybe it's time to tell him the truth...
