The author discusses different aspects from a Biblical perspective what she has learned through her journey growing into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, and others. She reflects on scriptural insights to help the reader see through a different lens how one’s relationship with Jesus Christ is the ultimate basis to determine the way one will interact, not only in the religious arena but also in other areas, and more specifically in business, in the market place. This is not only about an opportunity to grow in relationships, in godly character, or Biblical excellence but also about listening and being obedient to God’s voice. The question is asked: if are you one of the chosen ones and by hearing God’s voice, will you be obedient and partake in her Kingdom-building-godly business, or if you have your own, change the way you run your business and influence others? Your relationship with Jesus Christ is indeed the determining factor in how you live your life and influence others. Other aspects that are discussed will give more insights as to the hows and the what-nexts, and it might just shift some of your perceptions and paradigms in the process : • Significance • Paradigms and Renewing Your Mind • Godly Kings in the marketplace • Money and Stewardship • Growing the Numbers • God’s many, many promises in His Word for example : Romans 12:2: “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed (changed) by the (entire) renewing of your mind, (by its new ideals and its new attitude) so that you may prove (for yourselves) what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect (in His sight for you).” (AMP) Romans 15:4: “For whatever was written in former days, was written for our instruction, that by endurance and encouragement from the scriptures we might hold fast and cherish hope.” (AMP)

This ambitious work chronicles 250 years of the Cromartie family genealogical history. Included in the index of nearly fifty thousand names are the current generations, and all of those preceding, which trace ancestry to our family patriarch, William Cromartie, who was born in 1731 in Orkney, Scotland, and his second wife, Ruhamah Doane, who was born in 1745. Arriving in America in 1758, William Cromartie settled and developed a plantation on South River, a tributary of the Cape Fear near Wilmington, North Carolina. On April 2, 1766, William married Ruhamah Doane, a fifth-generation descendant of a Mayflower passenger to Plymouth, Stephen Hopkins. If Cromartie is your last name or that of one of your blood relatives, it is almost certain that you can trace your ancestry to one of the thirteen children of William Cromartie, his first wife, and Ruhamah Doane, who became the founding ancestors of our Cromartie family in America: William Jr., James, Thankful, Elizabeth, Hannah Ruhamah, Alexander, John, Margaret Nancy, Mary, Catherine, Jean, Peter Patrick, and Ann E. Cromartie. These four volumes hold an account of the descent of each of these first-generation Cromarties in America, including personal anecdotes, photographs, copies of family bibles, wills, and other historical documents. Their pages hold a personal record of our ancestors and where you belong in the Cromartie family tree.
