Recapturing Our Lost Identity by Dr. Claudette Owens

Published December 2023 by Dr. O Speaks through Kindle Direct Publishing

In Recapturing Our Lost Identity, Dr. Claudette Owens identifies the core issue behind much of the social upheaval that is unraveling the United States of America today. But it doesn’t have to be this way. In fact, Claudette is convinced that the daily practice of 14 timeless attributes of love—the “superpowers” of love—can and will overcome the power brokers of greed and hate so that we can take the lead and create a better country and world.

As Claudette expresses her desire for people to sit down together, have a dialogue, listen to one another, and cast aside the prejudgments and biases that separate us, she also shares poignant moments in her own life when she had to rely on love to overcome her own circumstances or shortcomings. For Claudette, as it is for many of us, her pursuit of love grew out of pain.

You will be inspired by Recapturing Our Lost Identity even as you are challenged by its truths. By the time you’re done, you will know for certain that your politics, opinions, achievements, and possessions amount to absolutely nothing…without love. $14.95 Buy Now

My Boy From Mars by Monte Cowing

Published December 2023 by by CAP&BT, LLC through Kindle Direct Publishing

When Monte Cowing’s son, Jacob, was a youngster first getting involved in sports, Monte discerned that his son’s abilities as an athlete were special and unique—in part because of Jacob’s musculature and abnormal strength and flexibility that gave him the nickname, “Little Martian.” That, combined with their shared love for superheroes and the planet Krypton, the fictional home of Superman, inspired the title of this book. 

In My Boy from Mars, Monte does far more than exult about his son’s incredible athleticism through childhood, high school, and into college. He provides brutally honest insights about how parents of young athletes often undermine and emotionally wound their own children in a callous pursuit of success in sports—and he provides keen, timely advice and insights from his own life on how they can avoid those pitfalls to help their youngsters excel in a loving, caring way. $14.99 Buy Now

The Substance of a Woman by Elaine Walker

Published October 2021 by Adam Colwell’s WriteWorks through Kindle Direct Publishing

Yet so many of us have so little self-esteem and so little sense of worth and purpose. We are incredibly adequate yet feel utterly inadequate. We are powerfully beautiful yet see ourselves as anything but attractive.”

Using the book of Genesis as her foundation, Elaine shares how women were designed with incredible substance to achieve incredible things for God! Using the stories of women of substance from the Bible, Elaine let’s all women know the truth. “We are unique and deserving of special focus and attention. We are to be looked upon.

If It Was Easy, Jesus Wouldn’t Have Prayed For It by David Drum

Published June 2017 by Adam Colwell’s WriteWorks through Amazon CreateSpace

Does the body of Christ resemble Jesus’ prayer? Are we praying with Jesus that it would? It isn’t easy.

Jesus’ John 17 prayer is far more strategic, central to the New Testament, and instructive than we realize—and it’s working! In the largely unchurched city of Tucson, AZ, countless people are turning to the Christian Church as an expression of the love of God for everyone in the city in areas such as foster care and places like the public schools. In an increasingly divided and immature world, Jesus prayed the answer.

This second book from David Drum details new challenges and insights to his role of being an “employee” of John 17. He’ll unpack the blessings that have emerged through six years of full time devotion to seeing Jesus’ prayer answered in his city. Join the adventure as he shares unexpected trials, while expanding your understanding of exactly what unity/harmony is, how it works in multiple settings, and how you can draw even closer to Christ in the process. $12.99 Buy Now

Pure Power! Spirit-led Ministry for Spirit-starved People by Moe Redding with Adam Colwell

Published January 2017 by Adam Colwell’s WriteWorks through Amazon CreateSpace

“Moe, are you going to give me back my church?”

When God posed this strong but simple “yes” or “no” question to Pastor Moe Redding, he was ready to quit the ministry. His plans to establish a megachurch in the affluent Phoenix suburb of Chandler were not being realized, and his frustration—and ego—were eating away at his hope, his family, and his future. Something had to change.

But his immediate response of, “Lord, it is yours,” set him on a new, unexpected, and transformative path as a pastor and as a Christian, and led to his church, Light of Christ, becoming a Spirit-led, servant ministry whose members give their lives away, first to the Lord and then to others. In Pure Power! Spirit-led Ministry for Spirit-starved People, Moe will poignantly and positively share what the Lord did for him, and the amazing way God used the church board of Light of Christ to revolutionize his ministry as a pastor. You’ll also read how the Holy Spirit brought faithful followers of Jesus and Spirit-led ministries into his life at just the right time, inspiring him to trust Jesus even more and take the next step as a follower of the Good Shepherd. All glory to God!

Whether you are a pastor, ministry leader, or simply someone ready to take the next step with Jesus, Pure Power! Spirit-led Ministry for Spirit-starved People will show you how to repent, rededicate, restructure, refocus, and rejoice as you listen to Jesus, follow His leading to serve others, and become the true disciple He created you to be! Joy will be your reward. $14.99 Buy Now

Jesus’ Surprising Strategy by David Drum

Published July 2013 by Adam Colwell’s WriteWorks through Arizona Lithographers

We are better together! We each hold a piece of the puzzle to our community’s needs.

You’re likely familiar with Jesus’ prayer that His followers would be one. Less well-known is how strategic and timely this prayer is as well as how instructional the prayer is about the kind of unity Jesus is praying for. Combine Jesus’ prayer with the apostle Paul’s citywide analogy, and you have a gift that provides powerful direction for how the body of Christ is supposed to operate in every city—direction that could provide the very societal transformation we so desperately seek and need.

Unity for any group requires work and intentionality. Building on Jesus’ prayer and Paul’s analogy, Jesus’ Surprising Strategy examines five levels of unity, each building on the previous one, and each providing a practical, biblical means for the roles you can play to fulfill Jesus’ prayer in our day, in your relationships, and in your city. It concludes with a case study of how this is beginning to be realized in Tucson, Arizona.

David Drum encourages, instructs, and reveals his personal journey toward seeing Christian unity as a mandate worthy of your very best effort. $12.99 Buy Now
