Kimberly Sellers’s newly released “Even Now” is an empowering discussion of faith and overcoming life’s challenges through trust in God’s plan


News Image

“Even Now”: a message of positivity and God’s love. “Even Now” is the creation of published author Kimberly Sellers, who was born and raised in South Carolina and is a retired United States Air Force veteran. She completed her master’s degrees in human resources and business administration.

Sellers shares, “Even Now is a book about faith and holding onto hope that things all work out for good. The road of faith is indeed a tough road to walk, and some people have no faith at all. Others have it but somehow lose it along the way. This book encourages those who feel all hope is lost, giving them a fresh new start on life and all of its possibilities through the power of believing it can be done. The author knows there is someone who simply thirsts for positive change in their lives but can’t get off the hamster wheel of unbelief.

“The author, through simple words of encouragement, backed by biblical reference shows her audience that believing is power in itself. Her words are easily interpreted without overuse of extreme jargon and convey to those seeking better in their lives that there is a way to live joyfully and with hope for the new day ahead. The promises that are made to us by God are the principles for which we stand strong, and this book personifies those principles. Hope is a powerful four-letter word, and it’s given to us by the Word of God.

“This book gives us hope that better is on the horizon when we trust and believe it to be done. The author has granted us a peek inside God’s gentle and humble heart and encourages the reader to try Him for themselves. Life can be hard to endure for many people, but this book provides a road map that leads to the One who can provide hope in the middle of despair, peace in the middle of a storm, and a solid foundation where the ground you stand upon feels unstable. Take the opportunity to read this book and take the challenge to start your journey with faith in God to do the things that seem impossible. See what a difference it can make in your life.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Kimberly Sellers’s new book will challenge readers to step forward and take an active role in their pursuit of a relationship with God.

Sellers shares in hopes of aiding others in their spiritual growth through a thoughtful and comforting message of God’s grace.

Consumers can purchase “Even Now” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

News Image

“The last thing people in crisis need is the added stress of navigating a complicated application process. At the end of the day, our priority is transforming the lives of those in need,” HHA President and CEO David A. Northern, Sr.

Houston Housing Authority (HHA) is reopening its public housing waitlist on Sunday, Jan. 15 at 12:00 p.m. CT through Wednesday, Feb. 15 at 4:00 p.m. CT. The agency temporarily closed its waitlist in 2018, in response to Houston’s growing affordable housing shortage. All eligible low-income households, seniors, veterans, and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply online at housingforhouston.com or in person at HHA’s Administrative Office.

“Many families are either struggling to find affordable housing or remain housed with the highly-competitive state of our current housing market,” HHA Board Chairman LaRence Snowden said. “Reopening the waitlist enables us to provide more support and solutions to those in need.”

The newly-enhanced waitlist application and online portal were designed to help streamline the process for applicants, providing greater accessibility and efficient access for those in need. The waitlist and portal will also include the ability to apply to multiple HHA properties using a single application. Applicants may choose from the following HHA properties: Cuney Homes, Ewing, Kennedy Place, Independence Heights, Heatherbrook, Lincoln Park, Bellerive, Irvington Village, Kelly Village, and Lyerly. For the first time, applications will be available in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Swahili, and Korean.

“Houston is experiencing one of the nation’s worst affordable housing shortages right now,” HHA President and CEO David A. Northern, Sr. said. “The last thing people in crisis need is the added stress of navigating a complicated application process. At the end of the day, our priority is transforming the lives of those in need.”

About Houston Housing Authority: HHA provides affordable homes and services to more than 60,000 low-income Houstonians, including more than 17,000 families housed through the Housing Choice Voucher Program as well as another 4,200 living in 19 public housing and tax credit developments around the city.

New Book Suggests Modern Christian Values May Not Align with Biblical Truth


News Image

I hope readers can discover and support God’s truth in a world of conflicting morals and values,” Beach said. “Many Christians fall into the trap of believing what the world and society teaches, even when those values differ from the values of God.

Those seeking truth and clarity in a world where values are changing rapidly may find answers in new book that seeks to uncover God’s truth.

In “Worldview of the Christian Faith,” by Joseph Charles Beach, readers are provided answers to some of the most complex questions surrounding the Christian faith. Beach explores the relevance of the Bible in today’s modern world and provides biblical context for many other popular questions of the faith.

“I hope readers can discover and support God’s truth in a world of conflicting morals and values,” Beach said. “Many Christians fall into the trap of believing what the world and society teaches, even when those values differ from the values of God.”

During 2020, Beach noticed society’s values were changing and began to question his own beliefs. After spending time researching the truth in the Bible and answering many of his own questions, Beach knew he needed to share his findings.

“One young couple is trying to cope with addictions and infidelity. Another is struggling with the daily task of working long hours while raising kids but all of it leading to a marital disconnect. The third couple, who are doing their best as empty nesters, are fighting against a war-torn memory and a daughter who is struggling in her own abusive relationship. With the help of a humble yet troubled psychologist, they each learn new skills that lead to each other and to Christ, but for some, the pain may be too much to overcome.

“After many years of serving his clients, Dr. Russ Rasmussen wanted to convey his biblically rooted advice in a way that would not only be enjoyed but also be implemented and practiced daily. After tossing around a few ideas with author, Bible study teacher, and friend, Jeff Sievertson, Dr. Russ decided the best way to bring his professional advice to life was through this heartwarming tale.”

Bite Size Explanations to Questions about the Catholic Mass” is an enjoyable study of the Catholic Mass


News Image

“The Mass: Bite Size Explanations to Questions about the Catholic Mass”: an easy-to-follow discussion of the complexities of the Catholic faith. “The Mass: Bite Size Explanations to Questions about the Catholic Mass” is the creation of published author JC Porto, a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who has earned a bachelor’s degree from Florida States University, a master’s degree from Troy State University, and is a PhD student with Liberty University, a Christian-based university. Allegue was born in Cuba and escaped the communist regime in 1961.

Porto shares, “The book is about the rich Catholic faith and the Holy Eucharist found in the Mass. Written in easy-to-understand, one-page, bite-size explanations about the essence of the Mass, it details the essential faith basic of Catholicism and its history.

“Many Catholics struggle to understand the words, prayers, and gestures of the Mass yet seek to deepen their understanding of the sacred liturgy. This book should be owned by every Catholic and read and reread until its insights remind us of our faith and the importance of meeting our Lord every time we attend Mass.

“Candidates in their conversion into the Catholic faith will deepen their faith by understanding each step of the Mass, not just do these things because ‘that’s the way we do it.’ Those outside the Catholic faith will understand the traditions of the Catholic Mass and how and why Catholics have a total change of attitude, values, priorities, and behavior. And further understand it is a journey of faith, ceremonies, beliefs, and a clear understanding of the place of scriptures in the Catholic religion.

“It answers questions about the altar, tabernacle, the bright light next to the tabernacle, the bells and smells, colors that the priest and deacon wear, and probably the most often asked question, Is Jesus really present in the Eucharist? And what about transubstantiation? How is that possible?

“Understanding the Mass will guide the reader to understand, appreciate, and take part in the ultimate of all prayers on a deeper level. Going to Mass will never be the same again once you really understand and appreciate the significance of every Mass at knowing that Jesus is in the house!”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, JC Porto’s new book is from the author’s series, “A Guy in the Pews.”

Porto shares in hopes of helping others connect more fully with their faith by deepening their understanding of key rites and rituals.

Consumers can purchase “The Mass: Bite Size Explanations to Questions about the Catholic Mass” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.
