Norman Bush’s newly released “Running the Race” is a compelling discussion of various pastoring styles and their effectiveness in reaching one’s congregation


News Image

“Running the Race”: a thoughtful reflection on pastoral approaches. “Running the Race” is the creation of published author Norman Bush.

Bush shares, “Norman Bush was born and raised on a farm in North Florida. He attended the local public schools in Madison County, Florida. Upon graduation, he attended North Florida College. He married his high school sweetheart. To this marriage, two daughters were born, Lynn and Lisa. During his career, he was an independent insurance agent. He retired at the age of fifty-seven and took employment with the local bank and later retired and moved from Tallahassee, Florida, back to his childhood home in beautiful Madison County. He and wife, Patty, attend Saint John Baptist at Greenville, Florida. Norman has a servant mentality and enjoys his testimony in working with people of all denominations and cultures. He has served in the past as Sunday school teacher, chairman of the board of deacons, and lay speaker.

“His purpose in writing this book is to share his thoughts and experiences in churches that he has attended, from the megachurches to the small country churches. He uses the Bible to demonstrate to Christians as to how God instructs us to maintain the proper attitude and knowledge of how he wants us to run the business of his church. Like Christ, he uses parables or short stories to bring out his point of view. In many cases, its knowing what not to do to keep the church functioning as God planned it to function.

“Seeing things from the other side of the pulpit is an eye-opening experience for some pastors, a situation that pastors need to look at. In his book, Norman takes a look from the congregation’s point of view. He points out that it’s only a short distance from the podium to the front row of any church, but if things go wrong, the distance gets further away, and then failure is just around the corner.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Norman Bush’s new book is a thoughtful and reflective opportunity for spiritual growth as a religious leader.

Bush’s helpful tone and easy demeanor provides for a nurturing opportunity for reflection and growth.

Colorado ABLE Accounts Enhanced With New Benefits and Protections for Coloradoans With Disabilities


News Image

We are grateful to Governor Polis and the Colorado legislature for continuing to prioritize our neighbors who need some extra help in planning for their futures. Angela Baier

Colorado ABLE announced today that the Achieving A Better Life Experience (ABLE) Savings Accounts bill was signed into law by Governor Jared Polis, creating a more inclusive and equitable path to financial security for Coloradoans who experience disabilities. The new law implements significant improvements in three key areas impacting access and ease of use, security of savings, and additional tax benefits for Coloradoans to create sustainable financial independence through long-term savings.

Under the new law which goes into effect January 1, 2023, the State may no longer file certain claims against an ABLE account upon the death of the designated beneficiary. Known as the Medicaid clawback, the previous practice allowed for the capture of funds to reimburse certain Medicaid expenses, and ultimately discouraged participation by placing private savings at risk.

The new law also enhances the tax benefits for Colorado ABLE savings accounts, providing a dollar-for-dollar State tax deduction for contributions made into a Colorado ABLE account.

And, to broaden access and ease of use, a person other than the individual with a disability can now open and administer an ABLE account on behalf of a person with disabilities.

Colorado’s college savings experts, CollegeInvest, administers the Colorado ABLE program.

“Since we launched Colorado ABLE in 2017, we have applied our savings and investment knowledge of 529 savings plans to empower Coloradoans with disabilities to move toward financial independence,” said Angela Baier, chief executive officer for CollegeInvest. “We are grateful to Governor Polis and the Colorado legislature for continuing to prioritize our neighbors who need some extra help in planning for their futures.”

The bill was sponsored by Representatives Cathy Kipp and Colin Larson and Senators Rachel Zenzinger and Robert Woodward.

The Colorado ABLE plan offers a wide range of investment options from aggressive plans seeking higher returns to conservative investments that place capital preservation over growth, all managed by Ascensus. A partnership with Fifth Third Bank also offers an integrated checking and debit account option providing the convenience of paying for qualified expenses with a debit card. For detailed information about the program, please visit http://www.coloradoable.org.

About Colorado ABLE

Colorado ABLE (Achieving a Better Life Experience) is Colorado’s savings program for people living with disabilities. A not-for-profit agency within the Colorado Department of High Education that receives no taxpayer funding, Colorado ABLE provides a diverse menu of tax-advantaged savings plans to help persons with disabilities save for their futures and promote independence, while protecting their eligibility for public assistance programs. Earnings on Colorado ABLE savings accounts are federally tax-free when used for qualified disability expenses.

I wrote the book to pass along the things I learned over the years about intercessory prayer to make it easier for believers to try more intercession in their personal prayer life

Author Valerie Sykes offers encouragement and instruction in Everyday Conversations on Intercessory Prayer ($16.49, paperback, 9781662842702; $7.99, e-book, 9781662842719).

Sykes desires to see more Christians participating in intercessory prayer, and she is willing to share her own knowledge and experience to help them do it. She is confident that this demonstration of love for others will simultaneously deepen believers’ relationship with Christ.

“I remember how intimidating I found intercessory prayer as a new believer. I was afraid that I wasn’t praying for the right needs for people and not talking to God the right way. I wrote the book to pass along the things I learned over the years about intercessory prayer to make it easier for believers to try more intercession in their personal prayer life,” said Sykes.

Valerie Sykes was raised in Maryland near Washington, DC where she currently lives and works for the Federal Government. She has been an active member in a number of Protestant churches and ministries for more than 30 years.

Horace Chamberlain’s newly released “Where Did I Go Wrong?” is an entertaining and thoughtful reflection on life’s challenges and victories


News Image

“Where Did I Go Wrong?”: an enjoyable and reflective memoir. “Where Did I Go Wrong?” is the creation of published author Horace Chamberlain.

Chamberlain shares, “This is the story of a country boy who grew up in the hills of western Portland, on the east cost of Jamaica, running away from political conflict in his island home of Jamaica in the West Indies. Born and raised in a place called Balcarres in the Buff Bay River valley, searching for a better more secure life, looking for love in all the wrong places, until finally finding true love in Jesus Christ, my Redeemer who appeared to me in an audio-able voice on my flight to the United States on December 26, 1984, telling me that he would never leave me nor forsake me. When I revealed that to my friends in San Francisco, California, I was laughed at and mocked. But today, I am living that promise after some ups and downs, hard work, good times, and some bad times. Today, I am living a victorious sin-free life, walking hand in hand with Jesus Christ, and he has anointed me to preach and teach his Gospel. With only a ninth-grade education, I am not eloquent, I am not charismatic, I do not have letters behind my name, but it is all right. I am who God says I am, and I will continue to do what the Lord has called me to do while living a humble life, trying my best to stay healthy by walking two miles six o’clock, four mornings per week and defying what three doctors in three different institutions told me seven years ago after a life-threatening debilitating accident. I was paralyzed from my neck down, but whose report did I believe and accept: God’s or the doctors’? Of course, I did believe and accept God Almighty’s report, and I am here. Thank God I am here.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Horace Chamberlain’s new book takes readers into the wilder days of a hopeful young man through today where they’ll meet a more contemplative version of that same vibrant soul.

Chamberlain offers a personal look at key moments to bring encouragement, wisdom, and hope to others.
