Author Scott D. Wise’s newly released “For Goodness Sake, Stay Out of the Casino” is a powerful memoir about resisting the lure of the Devil’s temptations


News Image

“For Goodness Sake, Stay Out of the Casino”: a poignant yet inspirational book about finding the strength and wisdom required to overcome addiction in God. “For Goodness Sake, Stay Out of the Casino” is the creation of published author, Scott D. Wise, a businessman, ex-marine, and reformed gambler.

Wise writes: “Be prepared to clench your fist, shake your head in amazement, shed a tear, and smile with amusement as you journey down my bumpy road in trying to follow Christ and overcome my weakness: a gambling addiction. What is your weakness? Journey with me, stay in the fight.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Scott D. Wise’s new book is a fascinating memoir that recounts one man’s fall into, and subsequent rise out of, addiction.

Books dealing with subject matter of this ilk are most commonly confessionals whose overarching theme and tone is ruefulness and regret. While these are evident thought this memoir, Wise’s story excels in delivering a hugely encouraging message of hope to sufferers of all forms of addiction by both painting a detailed picture of the ills that might befall addicts of any kind and bestowing a map with which they might safely navigate toward liberation and redemption.

Scott Lee Rose’s newly released “Just a Dot…” is a faith-strengthening read that inspires one to take on their mission of making their days count as God’s child


News Image

“Just a Dot…”: a profound source of spiritual strength that will guide one towards building a much more personal relationship with the Father through an understanding of the doctrine, His word, and His truth. “Just a Dot…” is the creation of published author Scott Lee Rose, a leader, teacher, and inspirational speaker. He is the creator and financial consultant of Ruddered for Success Inc.

Rose shares, “Imagine a never-ending line in separate directions representing eternity past and eternity future. God has always existed, and starting with conception, time marches on for you, and you never cease to be. Psalm 39:5 says, ‘You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.’ No matter how long you live, you are just a dot and very small in relation to eternity.

“The Creator of the Universe desires a personal relationship with you. John 3:16 says, ‘For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.’ Your love and fear of the Lord should inspire you to seek Truth, find it, and lead others to do the same.

“Just a Dot will help lead you to be a Truth Seeker and make your life count for Jesus Christ.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Scott Lee Rose’s new book leads the readers towards the illuminating grace of God with thought-provoking pages that carry wisdom and inspiration for the new believer and for those who want to find transformation in faith.

Kathy Beardsley’s newly released “Scofield’s Notes” is an enlightening analysis of the books of Daniel and Revelation


News Image

“Scofield’s Notes”: a deep dive into two of the Bible’s most popular books that will bring a closer perspective to those who wish to gain clarity and understanding on what they both hold. “Scofield’s Notes” is the creation of published author Kathy Beardsley, a woman with a burden to contend for her faith by reintroducing the truth formerly supplanted by foreign doctrine.

Beardsley shares, “Mentored by James H. Brookes, a dispensationalist, Cyrus Ingerson Scofield not only followed in his footsteps, but created a foundation for his own interpretation of dispensationalism. That interpretation along with his commentary on various Scripture passages came to be known as Scofield’s notes, which were placed within the pages of the King James Version of the Bible. Titled Scofield’s Study Bible (previously Scofield’s Reference Bible), it became a best-selling Bible in a relatively short period and continues to hold a solid standing as one of the favorite Bibles to be purchased. The escalation of prophecy news, sales in movies and books with that same message, and the steadfast loyalty to the rapture and tribulation theory are largely due to Scofield’s notes.

To keep it short and sweet, the majority of the focus is concentrated on breaking down the Scripture passages in the books of Daniel and Revelation—two of the books alleged by Scofield and his followers to contain eschatological prophecies yet unfulfilled. It will be clearly shown how easily one can be confused by the seemingly logical explanations Scofield provides, why his interpretation of Scripture is so dangerous, and why it is important to study for oneself.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Kathy Beardsley’s new book is a gripping examination of the Scriptures. Both books are said to contain prophecies that have yet to be fulfilled in the present day and have been widely used to get a gauge of the future.

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.

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

Get Start to Train Your Own Service Dog Online with Service Dog Training School International


Highly recommended to anyone looking for a service dog or a therapy dog to enhance their life.

If you would like to train your own service dog, how do you get started? The answer to this question may be surprising. Service dogs are not actually required by law to be professionally trained or formally certified. This means that owners may train their own animals to perform specific tasks themselves. Still, this might be a demanding process, and there are professional service dog training specialists for these services. For example, if a dog qualifies as a service dog under the ADA, the dog is allowed to accompany its owner in certain public areas within businesses, government buildings, and beyond. In a hospital, for example, it would be inappropriate to exclude a service animal from areas such as patient rooms, clinics, cafeterias, or examination rooms.
