I am of the conviction that a person's writings are a reflection of their character. I know Bernadine Cantrell to be a woman with a deep love for her Savior and a deep commitment to the body of Christ. Her book will inspire you to be the person that Christ called you to be when no one is looking. Read it, and be blessed!" Pastor Johnny Hunt, First Baptist Church, Woodstock, Georgia President, Southern Baptist Convention, 2008 - 2010 "I believe if the contents of this book are applied, marriages will flourish and families will prosper." Sonny Perdue, Governor of Georgia, 2003 - 2011 "When I read this book, I was so excited. Although it speaks to women of successful husbands and the issues they face, what I saw was how it spoke to me as a believer and to our church as a part of the Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ. Bernadine presents valuable principles which can guide individual believers and the Church in how to become a successful bride for the Lord." Philip McMinn, Pastor, 1960-2007 "I personally believe this is the best book on being a Godly wife I have ever read! The focus is on what the Lord expects of us as women.

... I inherited Revolutionary War letters which various citizens had written. The main character is the obscure Rev. Andrew Eliot of Fairfield Connecticut which I hypothesize may have been an American Secret Agent facilitated in these endeavors by Aaron Burr's first cousin, Thaddeus Burr. Benjamin Tallmadge, Robert Townsend, Austin Roe and Caleb Brewster were known to have participated in the Culper Spy Ring informing General George Washington of the British troops whereabouts and supplies. Until now other members have not been identified ... read for yourself the evidence presented here with scanned letters and artifacts and the genealogy that illustrates how I am in possession of these fascinating historical records"--Preface.
