Annette K Mazzone’s newly released “Lily Among Thorns” is an inspiring read of a courageous woman who stands up for her faith in a time of unrest


News Image

“Lily Among Thorns: Song of Solomon 2:2 In the Last Days 2nd Peter 3:3”: a beautiful tale of faith and courage set in a world where keeping one’s belief will lead to persecution. “Lily Among Thorns: Song of Solomon 2:2 In the Last Days 2nd Peter 3:3” is the creation of published author Annette K Mazzone, a devoted Christian who uses her talents and skills to serve God.

Mazzone shares, “The Twentieth Century should have taught humanity how it is the world could spin out of control and be led into two World Wars, when a tyrannical ruler seizes power. But sorry to say the worst is yet to come, and here in the first decades of the Twenty-First Century. The current woes of society will lead to an antichrist. The ‘Global Leader’ the Bible speaks of as ‘that Man of Sin,’ as it is written in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3, ‘Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there comes a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition’

“The consequences thereof is what happens when the Bible-believing Christian becomes enemy number one in this ‘New Oppressive World Order.’ Here is the story of one such young woman in her mid-twenties, whose horrific crimes against humankind is her love for the Lord and her belief in the Bible as it is written. She is but one of many and through the tremendous loss of family and love. With the long arm of the law ramping up a complete surveillance society, she manages to keep the faith and, along the way, finds the faith of others are everywhere, and as it is written in Genesis 50:20, ‘But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.’”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Annette K Mazzone’s new book is an inspiring and thought-provoking story about a brave young woman who refuses to bow down to authority and renounce her faith despite the dangers it places her in.

Pompeo, Huckabee, Benham Brothers, Abby Johnson join Standing for Freedom Center


“These fellows embody the core of what our center stands for: faith, freedom, and engaging culture with gospel-centered truth. I’m proud to have these faithful world-changers on board with us and am excited to see our center grow with them.”

The Standing for Freedom Center at Liberty University is proud to announce a new line of fellows. These experts will be influential in applying a biblical impact on the culture while advancing the cause of freedom.

The new lineup of fellows includes former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, pro-life activist Abby Johnson, and Christian entrepreneurs David and Jason Benham.

Standing for Freedom Center Executive Director Ryan Helfenbein said, “These fellows embody the core of what our center stands for: faith, freedom, and engaging culture with gospel-centered truth. I’m proud to have these faithful world-changers on board with us and am excited to see our center grow with them.”

Sec. Pompeo brings a wealth of political and ministerial knowledge to the Standing for Freedom Center. As Secretary of State with the Trump administration, he developed a fierce defensive posture for religious liberty on an international scale. Sec. Pompeo will be serving as a senior advisor.

Gov. Huckabee also brings a deep understanding of faith and policy to a culture that desperately needs it, having served 12 years as a pastor, Governor of Arkansas from 1996-2007, and now as host of “Huckabee,” a weekly talk show on TBN where he discusses the integration of faith and politics.

Abby Johnson is a leading voice for the pro-life cause. Having worked for Planned Parenthood for nearly a decade, she now exposes the horror of abortion by leading And Then There Were None, a group that urges abortion employees to leave the industry and provides counseling for those who do.

David and Jason Benham, both Liberty University alumni, are former professional baseball players, nationally acclaimed entrepreneurs, and bestselling authors. They became cancel culture before it was a popular hashtag, as they lost their HGTV reality show. Yet they continue to hold Christian values dear and encourage others to do the same.

As the Standing for Freedom Center continues to grow, these influencers who have joined its cause will equip a young generation of Christians to be bold in their faith wherever God calls them to serve.

W. R. Johnston’s newly released “Apocalypse Puzzle” shares an illuminating roadmap towards understanding the ambiguity of Bible prophecy


News Image

“Apocalypse Puzzle”: an enlightening study of the scriptures and doctrines that attempt to make sense of ancient Bible prophecies about the end-times. “Apocalypse Puzzle” is the creation of published author W. R. Johnston, a writer who studied Christian apocalyptic prophecy for over a half-century. He served as a pastor, school chaplain, and Christian school administrator for thirty-four years and is now retired

Johnston shares, “The Apocalypse Puzzle is written for Bible students who want to understand how the Apostle’s contemporaries viewed the apocalyptic prophecies of Daniel and the Book of Revelation. This book compares the study of prophecy to the endeavors of a jigsaw puzzle enigmatologist. Many pieces must be carefully considered and assembled to form the intended picture. There are strategies for assembly that reduce mystery and frustration. The Creator of the picture is God who meant for Christians to understand the issues and events of the last days and end of time. Jesus, and most of the New Testament writers, told of the nearness of the coming of Christ and the end of all things. The central question of the Apocalypse Puzzle is the placement of the end within the span of human history. It explores the conflict between the two principal characters in apocalyptic prophecy—Christ and Satan. The final chapter of the book describes how Christians ought to live today as they anticipate their reward.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, W. R. Johnston’s new book is a profound Bible study that pieces together the puzzle that revolves around the apocalyptic prophecy, the end times, and God’s plan for mankind. This is a great tool for Bible students who wish to see the Scripture unraveling itself to them.
