Please Do Not Be Tricked and Left Behind!” is an inspiring look at faith

Leave a comment


News Image


MEADVILLE, Pa. (PRWEB)

“Are You Really a Christian or Just Playing Church?: Please Do Not Be Tricked and Left Behind!”: a powerful opportunity for spiritual rejuvenation. “Are You Really a Christian or Just Playing Church?: Please Do Not Be Tricked and Left Behind!” is the creation of published author D.J. Redding R.N., a retired nurse and former Army medic who resides in the mountains of Colorado with his loving wife. Together they have three sons and five grandchildren.

Redding shares, “Dear Reader,

“I really thought I was a Christian! I did Christian things. I went to church on Sundays and contributed to the offering. I followed my religious teachings, observed required religious holidays, said a blessing before meals and obeyed the Ten Commandments. I believe in God; did good works and I love Jesus! Oh, and did I mention, I did good works! I was Mr. Goody–Two–Shoes, a Mister Nice Guy.

“A lover, not a fighter kind of person.

“However, I had an unexplained hunger, spiritually. Something was missing from the picture and I needed to find out what it was. So I started a ‘Search for Truth,’ a personal quest, you might say. I trusted in a scripture ‘seek and ye shall find, knock and the door will be opened unto you.’

“I even challenged God’s existence and our purpose on earth in a prayer. I said aloud, ‘God, if you are real, I want to know what the true relationship is between God and man, and what the true relationship is between man and man, because where that intersects is where I want to be, in my life.’

“Was He real? Would He respond? What would He tell me? Wow, boy, did He!

“He responded first with ‘There’s a way that seems right to a man, and appears straight before him but the end of it are the ways of death!’ (Proverbs 14:12). I likened that to a boxing glove punching me in the face. No beating around the bush, right? It definitely got my attention!

“I share the results of that search. What I learned, and the answers to my questions.

“I found out that I was playing church and if the rapture happened, I would have been left behind.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, D.J. Redding R.N.’s new book is a succinct and engaging examination of faith.

Readers will be presented with Redding’s personal experiences with examining and challenging one’s personal beliefs in order to make way for God’s true intentions.

Consumers can purchase “Are You Really a Christian or Just Playing Church?: Please Do Not Be Tricked and Left Behind!” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

For additional information or inquiries about “Are You Really a Christian or Just Playing Church?: Please Do Not Be Tricked and Left Behind!,” contact the Christian Faith Publishing media department at 866-554-0919.

Top Toys, Games, Books and Media That Spark Fun and Encourage Language

Leave a comment


Language catalyzing PAL Award winning toys and games are powerful additions to a child’s tool box, since children learn through play, and language is integral to learning!


PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB)

Regular interaction with children guides Play On Words CEO and speech-language pathologist, Erika Cardamone, to unique set of the best toys, games, books and media that have the chemistry to develop language while delivering great play. Today, Play On Words is announcing its annual “Top 10 PAL Picks for 2021/Holiday Gift Guide” by age and product category. Our Top 10’s take the guesswork out of giving great holiday gifts. Parents and grandparents use our lists to shop for smart toys with lasting play value.

Winners are assessed and reviewed by Erika with input from parents, kids and educators. Observing kid’s play in action, combined with her critical eye for language potential, Erika awards products and writes insightful reviews offering practical tips on how to maximize the educational value in each winner catalogued on Playonwords.com.

Language catalyzing PAL winning toys and games are powerful additions to a child’s tool box, since children learn through play, and language is integral to learning! Our 2021 Top 10’s include a number of great winners that inspire imagination and story-telling with engaging props, from Schleich’s “Happy Cow Wash” and recreating fairytales with “Papaton Shadow Theater,” to the “Jungle Set” by Magna-Tiles. Promoting children’s critical thinking is a strong theme throughout this year’s winners, often combined with STEM skills as children design and build cardboard forts with “Make-A-Fort,” conduct daily experiments with MindWare’s “12 Days of Science,” and learn about physics while building with sticks from “Craft Stick Creations” by hand2mind. The toy industry continues to value new toys, games and books to promote literacy. Kids make a rhyme to rhythmic beat in “Rhyme Antics” to encourage phonological skills, learn sound-letter correspondence with a flying kangaroo in “Rooby’s ABCs by SimplyFun and build confidence reading with some help from a magic stylus in LeapFrog’s “LeapReader Learn to Read Mega Pack.”

Erika’s expertise has been tapped by FOX TV News 6 Milwaukee, Honest Company Blog, ASHAsphere (official blog of the American Speech Language Hearing Association), and ASHA LEADER magazine.

For Erika, great play is not just about fun, or language development, it’s about going deep in both. Her expertise has been built on science and thousands of hours of client experience. Each set of Top 10’s represents a breadth of themes and genres, but they all have one thing in common – they are trusted lists of fun products that boost learning through play. Here are 2021’s Top 10 PAL Picks – See her reviews at http://www.playonwords.com

Todd Siebold Receives MEA Life Sustaining Award

Todd Siebold Receives MEA Life Sustaining Award

We are extremely grateful that he reacted quickly to save the life of a stranger.


BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (PRWEB)

MEA Energy Association (MEA) is honored to present Todd Siebold, a gas utility mechanic for WEC Energy Group – Wisconsin Public Service, with a Life Sustaining Award for saving a young man’s life.

Siebold was driving to a job site when he saw a young man running erratically along the road. The man fell into a ditch but managed to get up and run into a power pole before falling again. Through his rearview mirror, Siebold noticed that the individual did not get up a second time, so he pulled over and called 911.

Siebold went to the man’s location to make sure he was visible and stood by until the police arrived. The police recognized that he was overdosing and administered two shots of Narcan before the ambulance arrived. The young man was taken to the hospital and the police thanked Siebold for his actions. The individual would have died from the overdose had he not received help.

“MEA is honored to present this Life Sustaining Award to Todd,” said John Gann, MEA Vice President. “We are extremely grateful that he reacted quickly to save the life of a stranger. His actions are a testament to his character and to the training he received as a Wisconsin Public Service employee.”

Wisconsin Public Service serves electric and natural gas customers in northeast and central Wisconsin and has been an MEA member since 2008.

MEA Life Sustaining Awards are presented to individuals from member companies who have saved the life of another. Applications for the MEA Life Sustaining Award are reviewed and approved by the Executive Committee of MEA’s Board of Directors.
