News Image

“Pain for a Purpose”: a gripping personal story of faith and pain. “Pain for a Purpose” is the creation of published author, Debra Lynn Neal, a loving wife, mother, and grandmother who was born in Cleveland, Ohio.

Neal shares, “What type of pain are you experiencing in your life? Physical? Spiritual? Emotional? Have you ever wondered why? What is the purpose of the pain?”

Join the author as she takes you on a journey through her life of physical pain, spiritual pain, and emotional pain where she learned that all pain has a purpose. She was born into a Southern family who had migrated to the North, bringing with them skeletons of pain that they passed on to the next generation. Travel through the years with her and learn how God took the pain of alcohol, drugs, physical abuse, addictions, death, false accusations, and health and revealed the purpose for those life-changing, painful experiences.

Read how God used the pain of her spine, infertility, lumpectomies, and so many other physical pains to refocus her on growing His kingdom. Reflect on your current pain so that you too can one day hear those words “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Debra Lynn Neal’s new book is an important discussion on the dangers of domestic violence and alcohol abuse.

With personal anecdotes and opportunities for self-reflection, readers will find themselves, for the good or the bad, reminiscing on their own childhoods.

The Ups and Downs of Upsala College” is an engaging exploration of the historic college


News Image

“Swedes and Deeds: The Ups and Downs of Upsala College”: a richly historic and detailed account of Upsala College. “Swedes and Deeds: The Ups and Downs of Upsala College” is the creation of published author Jacob Schaad Jr., now ninety-nine years of age, who has been honored by the New Jersey Press Association for his longevity in journalism, covering eighty-one years. He was widowed a decade ago when his wife, Evelyn, passed away. He now resides with son, Mark, in Middle Township.

Schaad shares, “On this particular day, something special struck me in my journey to nostalgia. There had been stories in the newspapers about Upsala’s closure, and as quickly as we passed the site of requiem, many happy and sad thoughts about the colorful history of this Swedish Lutheran-related college penetrated my mind until they were interrupted at the parkway’s next toll. By the time we reached the exit to Kenilworth, the first New Jersey venue for the college and the second overall after a brief period in Brooklyn, New York, I had decided to write a book on the way it was at the college for nearly 102 years when it was started with high hopes by a group of Swedish immigrants, when it advanced to one of the high academic accomplishments in higher education, and when it then dropped from high to low as unexpected circumstances intervened and closed its doors forever.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Jacob Schaad Jr.’s new book is a historically accurate exploration of Upsala College including stories of former students.

The author’s extensive background in journalism is apparent in this meticulous and engaging history of Upsala College. Readers will enjoy the impressive research presented in appreciation of the historic beacon of higher education.

Part 1 (Joshua 1-5)” is a thoughtful discussion of the book of Joshua


News Image

“Preparation Creates Opportunity: Part 1 (Joshua 1-5)”: a potent biblical exploration. “Preparation Creates Opportunity: Part 1 (Joshua 1-5)” is the creation of published author Paul Murray, a loving husband, father, and grandfather who left professional ministry to become a managing broker with Berkshire Hathaway.

Murray shares, “The book of Joshua is the biblical record of the conquest of Canaan, an event that fulfilled a promise God made to Abram and his descendant’s generations earlier. It was the gift of God to His people, the Promised Land, the land of milk and honey.

“After Israel’s delivery from four hundred years of bondage in Egypt and the miraculous crossing of the Red Sea, Israel was brought into a new relationship with God. God gave them His Law and established them as a nation on Mount Sinai.

“They were instructed to enter the Promised Land at Kadesh-barnea, but after spying out the land, they were terrified. The land was a land of milk and honey, as God said, but God forgot to mention that there were giants in the land. These were men of immense size and strength who made the Israelites feel like grasshoppers in their sight.

“The Jews didn’t believe God could give them the land with those odds and refused to obey His will to enter the land. In response, they rebelled against Moses and Joshua.

“God judged that generation for their lack of faith and obedience by causing them to wander forty years in the wilderness, going nowhere, until that entire sinful generation perished.

“Finally, a nation of young men who had grown up in the wilderness stand at the banks of the Jordan River. They can see the Promised Land across the raging waters. The ancient fulfillment of the promise and the gift of God are so close. But before the conquest can begin, the river must be crossed and preparations must be made. These preparations will serve as the basis of the conquest that will unfold over the next seven plus years.

“Come along for the ride. You’re about to see God do wonders you’ve never imagined. Walk with these men and feel the drama unfold. It will change your view of who God is.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Paul Murray’s new book is a compelling discussion of key components of the book of Joshua.

Writing with a confident grasp of biblical knowledge, Murray welcomes readers to experience a unique opportunity for renewed faith and Bible study.

Q and A of Christianity” is a unique conversation between the author and divinity


News Image

“The Voice of Christ: Q and A of Christianity”: a spiritual journey. “The Voice of Christ: Q and A of Christianity” is the creation of published author John Skinner, a devoted follower of Christ.

Skinner shares, “This book is based upon information that was given to me by Christ in meditation during the Lenten season of 2020. My interaction with Christ became so casual, meditation was unnecessary. He then presented my calling to write this book through the dictation of Christ, the Virgin Mary, and our Almighty God.

“The initial purpose of this book was to evangelize, with the direct words of Christ, the Virgin Mary, and the Almighty God. A secular world that is divided among their Christian and worldly or pagan beliefs is starting to collapse as evil reigns within our governments. The deceit from within the Protestant churches confuses the minds of those born into them. A false truth that is the only one you know is sad.

“We need to rebuke the heresy of Martin Luther so we can unite Christianity once again. Without unity, our communion is not whole, and the word Christian becomes too broad when it is not meant to be. The main ones who almost always refer to themselves as Christian are the nondenominational Christians—some of the biggest deceivers among us. Let go of yourselves to listen to the divine voices of our Holy Family.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, John Skinner’s new book is a thought-provoking depiction of the author’s experience during meditative practices.

Skinner welcomes readers to witness what was experienced during a fateful Lenten season balanced with familiar, relevant Scripture.

Author Tony Cross’s newly released “Is God Angry? A Perspective Through Moses” is an insightful work that explores the true nature of God


News Image

“Is God Angry? A Perspective Through Moses”: a gripping and potent work that poses questions like, “Is there ‘righteous’ anger?” and “Why did God and Jesus use the analogy of ‘a father’ in relation to Himself, repeatedly throughout the Scripture?” “Is God Angry? A Perspective Through Moses” is the creation of published author, Tony Cross, who was born in Dallas, Texas.

Author Tony Cross writes, “Truth. Speaking to Jesus, Pilate’s famous words were ‘What is truth?’ An interesting question to ask Jesus, who also proclaimed, ‘I Am the way, the truth, and the life.’ My dad, whom I love very much, taught me many good things regarding faith, godly living, patience, humility, long-suffering, fatherhood, parenting, etc. But he also said things like ‘A wino, who drinks wine till he’s drunk every day, can drink a glass of water the next day and get drunk all over again.’ I had no reason to doubt him as a child, because I didn’t drink and had no knowledge of the subject of alcohol or alcohol abuse or its effect on the physical body. Google didn’t exist. The only computers that existed were at NASA, so researching information was limited and sketchy. It fit his narrative as a pastor, which was to scare everyone into salvation and away from the evils of society. But it wasn’t true.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Tony Cross’s new book seeks to overcome questions about God’s true nature. The author describes his personal journey of grappling with these questions and how he was able to find peace.

Book 2” is a compelling work that discusses how the world has defiled faith and its meaning.


News Image

“Undefiled Faith: Book 2” is a gripping and potent work that highlights the importance of faith. “Undefiled Faith: Book 2” is the creation of published author, Robert Shipley, who, after surrendering his will to God, has devoted his life to bringing the Church back to trusting God and not themselves.

Author Robert Shipley writes, “Surely if those men lived on earth today, the world would say life would be different for them! Instead of Abraham going out to the wilderness to live in a tent, he could stay in a luxury hotel. Or instead of him riding a stinky camel or walking in the desert, he could get a modern vehicle with air-conditioning and comfortable seats or ride first class on a plane in comfort because of how famous he is. The same goes for Elijah. Instead of him staying near a brook, he would be a CEO of a company, live in a condo or a mansion next to a pool, and have room service the rest of his life! No more being fed by

ravens or depending on a brook! In fact, he would host a gathering for the wealthy of the world and would call fire down from heaven to consume a bull for a feast as often as he would like for the entertainment of the onlookers.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Robert Shipley’s new book explains that faith becomes defiled when man ties worldly principles to it and puts standards and limitations on it so that man’s strength alone takes over faith.

The author also explains that man has learned to achieve what he requires by his strength, so to wait for it in faith would be considered, today, irresponsible and crazy.
