By use of a singular and seamless format, and organized into thirteen chapters of pure Scripture, The Reader-Friendly Life of Christ takes the complexity out of a readers attempt to get a clear, basic, yet thorough overview of Christs mortal life and teachings. All of Christs major sermons, miracles, and parables are also identified and placed at a readers fingertips by use of an accompanying appendix. When you finish reading this story, you may want to keep it close by for ready reference, and to experience again and again the simple, beautiful and powerful story of him who is worshipped by and inspires hundreds of millions. This is a complete, interwoven story not found in either one of Matthew, Mark, Luke, or Johns New Testament accounts alone. Though purely Biblical, even a child can understand this books marvelous message. I have read (The Reader-Friendly Life of Christ)A Singular and Interwoven Biblical Account which was compiled by Sterling H. Redd. I have found that this compilation of the four gospels of the New Testament has profoundly clarified and made extremely accessible and readable the mortal ministry of the Savior. It is in a format that would enable children from about ten years of age and older to read the Scriptures as they are written with increased understanding and appreciation. Garth G.

Jesus Christ Lives: So Great was the Astonishment of the People! is a singular, complete, and purely scriptural account not only of Jesus’ earthly recorded life and teachings among mankind in the land of Jerusalem, but also his resurrected ministry among righteous inhabitants in Ancient America. It is taken both from the best of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John’s accounts in the King James Version of the Holy Bible, as well as the account given in Third Nephi of the Book of Mormon. This book is written for the purpose of removing all the unrelated material and complexity in a person’s attempt to get a basic, clear, yet comprehensive overview of Jesus’ life and teachings among the people who knew him, and recorded their experiences with him in the Biblical account. In the Book of Mormon is the pure, unaltered account of the resurrected Lord’s ministry among the Nephites. . Instead of four partial accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in the Holy Bible, this book presents a single story of their accounts, followed by the account of the Savior’s Ancient American ministry. The book includes an index and marking system which makes easily available all of the events, sermons, parables, and miracles recorded in the Biblical section. Jesus Christ Lives: So Great was the Astonishment of the People! is an attempt to gather in simplicity for youth, as well as adults, the Savior’s concepts, wisdom and Spirit in these two ministries.
Home alone in the summer during a 1958 recession, with no job, and wanting to do something exciting to show for the quarter break, a nineteen-year-old, in this true account, decides to explore the lush and inviting Northwest. Launching right away into a questionable pursuit, he decides to follow the lure to Canada, Washington and Oregon, usung his most economical choice of transportation--his brother’s bicycle—an old three-speed pedal bike--despite it having only front wheel brakes, no lights, and only first gear working, Since none of his invited friends are permitted to accompany him on such a dubious jaunt, and ignoring several concerned warnings of certain danger along the way, he nevertheless straps some quickly put-together supplies for a month’s solo venture—not forgetting his mother’s antique 1907 Brownie Box Camera, and $75 for food and film, then starts heading out on a bright and early August morning. Though faced with many trying, surprising, and some terrifying challenges during the following month, his only tools for the entire experience are a naieve sense of indestructible confidence, determination, and a trust that when the time came, he would be given whatever help was needed. It was an adventure few had taken back then, and one that probably even fewer are likely to experience today, given the circumstances. Readers may find themselves riveted to the pages right to the very end. One reader said of the book, “You need to contact Steven Spielberg, and get this story made into a movie”!
Exaltation: The Goal “Exploring the Path” is a marathonic work which focuses on examining through scriptures already imparted to man, the path leading not only to basic “salvation”, but culminating or ending in exaltation for the humble followers of Christ returning to live as worthy sons and daughters of God in his very presence. The book draws expansively on the full scope of ancient, as well as modern-day scriptures, is divided into fourteen chapters, and is meticulously documented throughout. It serves as a remarkable resource on the more than 160 organized subjects covering the revealed path, from man’s very beginning to the veritable end, where sadly, “many are called, but few are chosen”. Will you be among those few?
PROPHETS Ancient and Modern SPEAK is a reference document which provides a topical arrangement of the vast majority of outstanding scriptural quotes of principles, truths, key figures, and familiar stories from the following: 1. The Old and New Testaments, with particular comprehensive focus on the four Gospels, to also include minimal introductory context for clarification. 2. The Book of Mormon, itself a document translated from engraved writings of prophets in Ancient America on metallic plates, and in modern times delivered to and translated by the young prophet Joseph Smith, Jun. through divine means. 3. The Doctrine and Covenants, a compilation of one hundred and thirty–eight revelations given primarily to the prophet Joseph Smith, Jun. 4. The Pearl of Great Price, visions and acquired papyrus, having been revealed and translated by divine means through the prophet Joseph Smith, Jun. 5. Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, a book compiled by the later prophet Joseph Fielding Smith, including background and source information for each entry. (See End Notes) 6. Proclamations to the world, by Joseph Smith, Jr. and other contemporary prophets regarding preeminent doctrines. The organization of several thousand entries in PROPHETS Ancient and Modern SPEAK, all considered pure scripture, is a modest attempt to gather comprehensively and representatively from the above-stated books and documents, the plain and precious truths revealed anciently and in relatively current times. The entries are arranged alphabetically under nearly sixteen hundred topic or subject headings, with cross-referencing throughout, and with many being placed under multiple related headings, to facilitate ease of access. Meticulous documentation is provided throughout the entire document. In the years since its first publication in 1830, the Book of Mormon has been taken in translated versions to most countries throughout the world, not only matching its Biblical companion in a vast world distribution, but more importantly, in presenting the gospel and teachings of Jesus Christ in its fullness and purity. Indeed, The Book of Mormon provides throughout, another witness of Jesus Christ, as well as clear validation of the Bible—revealing much which has been taken out of the Bible over the centuries. The Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price have also been revealed, translated and distributed in a vast and similar extent throughout the world. Countless volumes have been written about the above-listed books ranging from a child’s animated versions to highly sophisticated, technical, archaeological and scientific studies of their early backgrounds and authenticity. Further, millions of followers testify of the truth and validity of Joseph Smith, Jr. as being the prophet through whom the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price have come into modern hands, declaring the Book of Mormon particularly as a book which will bring a person closer to God than any other book! PROPHETS Ancient and Modern SPEAK has been compiled and topically organized to help a reader readily find the ennobling truths taught by ancient and modern prophets alike. The topic entries, arranged alphabetically, draw from the above-mentioned sources, and are presented in relatively full context. PROPHETS Ancient and Modern SPEAK in no way proposes to replace the value of a person’s reading and enjoying the full text of the Old and New Testaments, The Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants or Pearl of Great Price themselves. Therein are innumerable stories and text which present live and gripping images that touch people’s hearts, and are foundational in building a powerful conviction in millions regarding the truth of the teachings therein. What makes PROPHETS Ancient and Modern SPEAK so valuable in a person’s study of the scriptures is the immediate facility it offers in readily finding pertinent and sacred truths and references on a vast array of meaningful subjects found in the sources drawn from, whether for personal or presentational use. The well-known and late author W. Cleon Skousen well promoted the idea that “…the greater mind is not the one that remembers the most, but the one that can find it when he wants it.”
Words are powerful in shaping the quality and direction of a person’s life. Considering the following quote, “They are never alone who are accompanied by noble thoughts”, the book A Thoughtful Calendar addresses nearly three hundred topics, offering a succinct quote and a corresponding scripture for each day of the year, with consideration of the seasons, holidays, famous birthdays, commemorations, and historical events. The quotes have been gathered from such resources as scripture, talks, classes, personal study, movies and novels over a period of fifty plus years. Some entries have slight editing-primarily to facilitate a consistent format, but the vast majority of entries have added dimension with the inclusion of careful documentation.
POETRY: A Delightful Journey Through Life is an arrangement of over eighty well-selected classical poems into eight basic life stages in which most people pass through or experience in the course of a lifetime. These eight stages are Childhood, Beyond a Bumbling Society, In Search of Love, On Pain and Irony, Satisfaction with the Simple Things of Life, The Seasons, On Death, and Lines to Lift and Inspire. Each of the eight stages is first introduced within an appropriate setting or frame of mind under which the selected poems follow. The reader is then carefully introduced to each poem, making it more readily understood. Inasmuch as poetry generally uses figurative symbols and imagery, the reader, coming from any number of backgrounds of education and experience, is allowed to put his or her own finishing touches on the poem, and can thus experience personal enjoyment from the poetic images embodied in the poems.
The focus in Holy Bible Gems is to present chronologically the significant truths, principles, outstanding stories, key Biblical figures, and major historic events, in the King James version of the Holy Bible. While the reader is encouraged to read the full textual entries, the over-riding highlight throughout the book is the placement of a key bolded and italicized heading succinctly representing each entry, like a polished Gem. The purpose of this book’s format is to facilitate covering in essence the entire Bible quite rapidly and with assured ease if by reading just the headings alone. The reader can then rely on consistent richness, right to the end of the Bible, without being weighed down with what might be considered vast extraneous material.
