Let me take you on a journey through my memories, a journey filled with despair, yet brimming with hope. I'm one of the children of a cacodemonic (demon-possessed) biological dad. My memoirs are both gripping and inspirational. They chronicle my life from when I asked Jesus into my heart, at the tender age of sixteen (after living on the streets for two years), to the birth of all four of my children and my dad's funeral. My prequel will take the reader deeper into my childhood""from my birth to my sixteenth year of life. I believe these books are important because they shed a much-needed light on the sensitive subjects of neglect and abuse from a firsthand eyewitness. I hope and pray that they'll become a valuable resource for others like me and for the people who love them and are trying to help. For those of you who've also suffered the pain of neglect and abuse, I'd like to say, "I'm sorry." Nobody on earth will ever fully understand your pain. That's God's job! Jesus became a man so that He could walk in our shoes, and He suffered horribly on the cross, willingly to save us from ourselves and this world. He can save you, but only if you let Him!

Each spring as the Kentucky Derby grows near, a kind of frenzy hits a wide section of the population. People suddenly turn their attention to Churchill Downs, and the anticipation of the Run for the Roses sends everyone into "Derby fever." Here in his third book on the Kentucky Derby, Jim Bolus brings together a collection of his favorite Derby Stories that are sure to make an avid race fan out of anyone. Bolus covers a wide range of topics--from "the Duke" at the Derby; to the famous Derby photograph of the Fighting Finish in 1933; to his favorite Derby, the 1969 running. Also included are such champions as Whirlaway, Exterminator, Secretariat, Spend a Buck, and Nashua. Bolus has devoted a chapter to the Stevens family, whose horse-racing roots trace back more than 120 years, and to the Derby chart callers, those men who through the years have documented the race for posterity. Bolus also relates his own personal experiences as a bettor (and a loser!) on the Derby. In particular, he devotes a chapter to Holy Land, a horse who ran in the 1970 race but lost his jockey and the race. It's a pick Bolus has been kidded about a lot over the years. An authority on the subject, Jim Bolus has conducted hundreds of interviews about the Derby. With this book, readers will understand his passion for the grand old race and its traditions as they learn why so many get Derby fever every spring. Also by Jim Bolus are Remembering the Derby and Kentucky Derby Stories, both published by Pelican.

At least 95% of the Christians I know, have left the church due to an issue that took place in the church. It has caused 95% of those people to stop going to church, stop walking with God, or stop believing in God. I believe that God has his hand on that percentile. He's drawing them back to him, and desires a true relationship with his sons and daughters.
