Most of the stories and events sprinkled throughout the books are true and accurately recounted to the best of my ability. The last thing I want to do is to hurt anyone's feelings. However, I realize that we all have issues to varying degrees. Sure, as humans we struggle and sometimes we fall. To this end, I have included stories like these to make you smile, think, and even to bring you some cheer. Once I knew someone who believed the only way out was up. They were about ready to do themselves harm just like the Philippian jailer when our God had stepped in. You'll never know by just by looking at someone what all he's brought them through. Just because a situation is pressing doesn't mean it's the end. Like the woman with an issue in Luke 8:43, we too should push our way closer to him. Therefore, some creative license has been taken to avoid privacying the Lord. Certainly, at times all of us could use a good word.

Recently, I saw a photo of a massive truck with the bumper sticker 'my story is my own to tell not anyone else.' Well, somebody tell the creator of it they're viral, quick. Jesus came to set us free not to cover up our bodily traumas, festering feelings, and all sorts of conditions. If they drove him to the cross, I hardly think everything can be covered up with a neat little 'Jesus saves' Band-Aid. A lot of us have the notion that our business is privately kept. As a result, how dare anyone help us with anything much. Yet, we ask Google maps for directions freely. The search engine gets all our burning questions and desires for answers. But the One who should have the most say has none at all. If by some chance you enjoy life surrounded by oinking pigs and stinking mud down in the barnyard as the prodigal once, perhaps you're only lying to yourself. See, God never intended you to live there. He came to rescue you from yourself, your habits, and whatever the issue. Just like the good Father of Luke 11:15-32 that his son never knew, he's waiting to welcome you back home to himself. Some of you are so trapped in your own human condition that the way back home has long been forgot. Somehow you missed the Father with his arms stretched open wide. Perhaps your issue isn't the message. Maybe you just don't like who brings the Word. Then again, maybe your whole issue is the Lord. You've been running your whole life, scared, stuck, and going nowhere. Perhaps you've decided this whole God business just isn't for you. Surely the Father will come along right about then.

As in Revelation 3:20, he stands at your heart's door and knocks. 'I'm fine,' you say, 'I don't need no help.' Go ahead, shut all your doors and windows tight. Oh yes, Jesus is a gentleman alright. He'll gladly go away if you like. Once I knew a man who hated everyone in sight. One day I went to check on him for what I didn't know would be the very last time. He did exactly what the bumper sticker said and 'come back again.' That very night, not a few hours later, this man met the Lord. In many churches the altar call is given time and again. Truth is you never know when your time will be to go. Yet his offer of John 1:12 "to as many as received him" still stands. I only pray you don't wait until the book has closed and the last chapter is turned. He's ever-ready to receive you back to the house of the Father it seems.

If you don't mind a little about them real quick. The first four books were part of the standalone series, the Unredeemed. Then our God brought that too into the kingdom of his own glorious light. The rest came in response to an overwhelming outpouring of public support for the project, a silent testament to the God who changes all things. There's childrens education and materials provided to assist with the church. Beyond that, there's more for all who would care to listen and take a good look. So without further ado, here's the list just for you.
