Deprived: “Mary Lou West”
By Don Griffin
Don was born and raised in North East Texas and is well acquainted with the friendly people, conservative values, towering pine trees and beautiful lakes that make that area an attractive place to live. At the age of 21, he came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, and immediately began sharing his faith with others. Surprisingly, he began hungering to know and understand the Word of God. Little did he know that the hunger he felt would only increase as the years transpired. At the invitation of another new Christian, he left his home in Longview and moved to Dallas where he joined a church and was taught by other, more mature Christians. As good as it was, life did not remain the same. It was not long until he was moving again-this time to study the Bible so that he could one day be in full-time ministry. God also gave Don a wonderful, ministry-minded wife along with two children. The years at Bible school flew by, and Don was called to be the pastor of a small church in the town where he was born some 26 years before. Those were great years, and God raised up a loving church that was successful in reaching many young families for Christ. Moving, however, was not over for Don. He felt an uninvited call on his life to start a new church in Houston, Texas. Don submitted to that call of God and rented a house with no church members, no building and very little money. He believed God would somehow take care of his family as he did God’s work. He was right. God did indeed raise up a church that Don still pastors to this day. The years have passed, and Don and his wife now have 10 grandchildren and another one on the way. There is one overarching lesson Don has learned through the journey of life. God is faithful.

Different Coins in the Fountain Volume I
Dear Reader,
If you consider yourselves a busy person, one that goes from task to task with little respite in-between, then this book is made to order for you. On the other hand, if you do not have time constraints, you will have the luxury of reading and discussing these stories with your friends. I believe my book is full of bang-bang short stories with multiple plots that might fit into your on-the-move regimen.
If entertainment is your motivation, you, too, are a splendid candidate to keep “Different Coins in the Fountain” by your favorite chair or by the side of your bed.
Any lifestyle can benefit from minutes or hours of reading stories that are succinct. Since we come from different cultures, flipping “coins” onto a fountain represent our hopes to obtain the similar things in life that we all cherish. We are inclined to be tempted to be at the “fountain”. How would you sum up your story? Everyone has a story, and, at different stages of life, there’s a different story.
Sincerely,
Carlos V. Cornejo

Divine Package and You
The book ‘Divine Package and You’ is an attempt to bring a major theme of the Christian faith into a broader focus. In doing this, it takes a swipe at what the author considers as a breach in contemporary Christian teaching. He therefore urges Christians to move from the shadow to reality, from milk to solid food, and reject the trash for healthy food.
Like Berean Christians, we should expose every teaching and doctrine to the searchlight of the Holy Spirit making the Holy Scriptures our reference point. We should examine every teaching and hold on to the truth that will set us free.
This book is an eye-opener and a must-read for every Christian, both the clergy and the laity. No one can read through it and remain the same. Be blessed as you read through it.
