New Bestselling Christian Historical Fiction E-book, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ By Author Joseph Ganci, Will Be Available At No Charge on December 16 And December 20, 2022, At Amazon


The new book is the second book in the Empire of Israel series. The first book in the series, 'Gideon, The Sound and The Glory' was also a #1 bestseller.

Bestselling author Joseph Ganci has announced that his latest bestselling Christian Historical Fiction e-book, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ will be available for no charge on December 16 and also on December 20, 2022, at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Joseph-Ganci/e/B06XHZ76N9?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1670541609&sr=8-1

Bringing Biblical characters and events to life, adding vibrancy to ancient stories and historical personalities with odd-sounding names, and living in odd-sounding places, is the unique talent Ganci brings to his Christian fiction novels.

In 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ David is every man’s man, an outlaw prophet, a man of war, and a man of God. He is a ruthless warrior, an ardent lover, a skilled musician, and a poet-philosopher. God sees in him the heart of a lion, the tenacity of a bear, and an ever-faithful man of action. Thus, God calls an unlikely and lowly shepherd boy to become the king of the Jews and the fighting prince of Israel.

David overcomes all odds in escaping every snare, evading every trap, and learns from every encounter, growing in understanding and effectiveness in the love of his Creator. He protects, defends, and enlarges the stakes of Zion, the resting place of God’s chosen people. David reaches the pinnacle of all worldly success. He marries the love of his life and is the master of all he surveys, surpassing his imagination. Witness the steamy twofold seduction of Bathsheba, a married woman and her soul mate, the insatiable romantic David, her king, her equal, and her indomitable lover.

Readers will relish this incredible enchanting historical fiction. Experience the heart-pounding narrow escapes from the vengeful King Saul, be a party to the kidnapping of David’s two wives and his ferocious battle against the shapeshifting Amalekites, and be present as he wins them back and, in doing so, captures a vast treasure trove of flocks, herds, and gold that helps to secure his two kingdoms. Readers will join the battle at Mount Gilboa. Witness the destruction of Saul and his sons foretold by the witch of Endor, celebrate the fall of the city of waters and the last puzzle piece needed to establish the empire of Israel, look down from the high walls of Rabbah and learn of the required destruction of Uriah the Hittite. Then stand invited to the marriage feast of David and his soulmate Bathsheba, the future mother of King Solomon, the future monarch of Israel.

Reading Ganci’s books is a stark reminder that humans have not changed much over the last 3000 years. And that is what makes them so relatable today. While the characters in the Bible did not have to deal with climate change, Q-Anon, market crashes, Bitcoin schemes, Russian aggression, Covid-19, or any of our modern day problems, they did indeed deal with mass killings, kings who refused to be removed from power, liars, thieves, illegal land grabs, unjustified war and a plethora of other human issues still with us today. Only the labels have changed.

Readers and reviewers alike have praised the new book."

"Although most people are aware of the story of David and Goliath, the giant, 'David: God's Chosen Crucible' by Joseph Ganci is a brilliant retelling of all the stories about the Shepard boy who would one day become a King of Israel. Reading with all the informational value of a history textbook is deftly combined with the entertainment of an action/adventure novel."
Michael J. Carson Reviewer for Midwest Book Review.

"David God's Chosen Crucible is intelligently plotted, well-researched, and expertly executed. The writing by Joseph Ganci is wonderful, and the author has the gift of filling the narrative with exciting details, describing a setting that is colorful and transports readers to biblical times."
Christian Sia for Readers' Favorite

"Joseph delivers an extremely believable story that fills the gaps smoothly and neatly packs various events into an intense, multiple-viewpoint narrative. The book also contains several lessons and messages to help believers grow in faith and knowledge about God's ways."
Foluso Falaye - San Francisco book review

The new book is available on Amazon in e-Book, paperback, hardcover, and an audio edition. The eBook version will be available on Amazon at no charge on December 16 and December 20, 2022.

Ganci takes a ground-breaking and revelatory path in his quest to bring awe-inspiring stories to life and, ultimately, to film. He believes that connecting facts is far more enchanting than loosely fitting fantasies. He works within an engaging and dramatized fiction framework that remains faithful to uphold spiritual principles while exceedingly rich in detail.

Ganci bases his work on three primary pillars:

* The rock-solid cornerstone is historical biblical geography.

* The creative arch is revelatory in its timing and issues.

* The research is concrete and firmly rooted in customs, languages, and traditions.

Ganci fills in the blanks with rock-solid research and prophetic revelations. It is a style that has allowed him to create breakthrough approaches that are exciting and breathtaking while remaining within the limits of sound biblical teachings.

Ganci is also the creator of 'Incredible Bible Mysteries,' a five-part video series now available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK0Op2dYhMXtz7nh2D__keQ.

Ganci believes that Old Testament revelations are the Word of God. Simultaneously, many needful details remained buried until the information age of discovery made them prominent and visible to the naked eye. These insights create a middle ground of understanding. As a dedicated and highly motivated researcher, he proposes many undiscovered nuggets of spiritual gold in the original manuscripts. He shines a new light on ancient texts and removes the black-or-white argument of the all-or-nothing question of modern-day revelations. He is adept at untangling philosophical and theological human-made knots. He allows us to look at what some consider foregone conclusions.

Readers of his bestseller, 'Gideon, The Sound and the Glory' will learn about the Jewish Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant, the mysterious Golden Ephod, why David found himself at battle with Goliath, and much much more. This work illuminates the dark corners of scripture while engaging readers in a gripping narrative.

Joseph Ganci was honored as one of the '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading in the 2017 Book Awards. 'Gideon: The Sound and the Glory has received rave reviews from readers and reviewers alike. A recent reviewer stated, "Joseph Ganci's prose is arresting, peppered with fantastic imagery and succinct descriptions of plot, characters, and setting. The themes rise to a masterful recreation. They are woven into the story to allow the reader to enjoy its inspiration and the accompanying action. The book explores powerful spiritual and political themes, capturing the conflicts and dynamics of life within the community of God's chosen people. Gideon: The Sound and the Glory will appeal to fans of political thrillers, adventure, and conflict-driven stories laced with intense action." Other reviewers have used phrases such as "riveting," "amazing," "deftly crafted," and "highly recommended."

New Christian Historical Fiction Book, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ By Bestselling Author Joseph Ganci Attains Bestseller Status


The new book is the second book in the Empire of Israel series. The first book in the series, 'Gideon, The Sound and The Glory' was also a #1 bestseller.

Bestselling author Joseph Ganci has announced that his latest book, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ has achieved bestseller status in the Christian Historical Fiction category.

Bringing Biblical characters and events to life, adding vibrancy to ancient stories and historical personalities with odd-sounding names, and living in odd-sounding places, is the unique talent Ganci brings to his Christian fiction novels. Reading his books brings us to a stark revelation - human beings have not changed much in over 2000 years. And that is what makes them so intriguing. A perfect example of this is the current furor over the issue of abortion:

"David had a life-and-death decision to make. If Nathan, the prophet, was made aware of David’s adultery with Bathsheba, now pregnant with David’s baby. Her condition would only stand to confirm the illicit romance. Bathsheba and the child that she carried would be stoned to death. David either had to abort his offspring to save face and his soulmate's life or have Uriah the Hittite slaughtered. As a result, of her husband’s murder, Bathsheba became available for marriage. Or she could be compelled to drink the bitter waters, her belly swell, and her thigh would fall off, killing her and the baby, and her name blotted out forever. Uriah is ultimately sacrificed on the altar of love and expediency. Consequently, unnamed and unmourned, David’s love child dies seven days after birth.

"The practice of abortion — the termination of a pregnancy — has been known since ancient times. Abortion laws and their enforcement have fluctuated through various eras. During the 20th century, abortion-rights movements successfully had abortion bans repealed in much of the Western world. While abortion remains legal in most of the West, this legality is regularly challenged by anti-abortion groups. The Soviet Union under Vladimir Lenin is recognized as the first country to legalize abortion on demand."

In 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ David is every man’s man, an outlaw prophet, a man of war, and a man of God. He is a ruthless warrior, an ardent lover, a skilled musician, and a poet-philosopher. God sees in him the heart of a lion, the tenacity of a bear, and an ever-faithful man of action. Thus, God calls an unlikely and lowly shepherd boy to become the king of the Jews and the fighting prince of Israel.

David overcomes all odds in escaping every snare, evading every trap, and learns from every encounter, growing in understanding and effectiveness in the love of his Creator. He protects, defends, and enlarges the stakes of Zion, the resting place of God’s chosen people. David reaches the pinnacle of all worldly success. He marries the love of his life and is the master of all that he surveys, even surpassing his imagination. Witness the steamy twofold seduction of Bathsheba, a married woman and her soul mate, the insatiable romantic David, her king, her equal, and her indomitable lover.

Readers will relish this incredible enchanting historical fiction. Experience the heart-pounding narrow escapes from the vengeful King Saul, be a party to the kidnapping of David’s two wives and his ferocious battle against the shapeshifting Amalekites, and be present as he wins them back and, in doing so, captures a vast treasure trove of flocks, herds, and gold that helps to secure his two kingdoms. Readers will join the battle at Mount Gilboa. Witness the destruction of Saul and his sons foretold by the witch of Endor, celebrate the fall of the city of waters and the last puzzle piece needed to establish the empire of Israel, look down from the high walls of Rabbah and learn of the required destruction of Uriah the Hittite.

Bestselling Author Joseph Ganci Announces New Historical Fiction eBook, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ Available At No Charge April 4 Through April 6, 2022


Ganci's first sequel to 'Gideon, The Sound, and The Glory', is part of ‘The Empire of Israel’ series. God calls an unlikely and lowly shepherd boy to become the king of the Jews and fighting prince of Israel.

Bestselling author Joseph Ganci has announced that his latest book, 'David, God's Chosen Crucible,’ will be available in eBook form at no charge from April 4 through April 6, 2022.

Due to recent events in Ukraine, yet another war weighs heavily on everyone's mind today. Russia is reminiscent of the Philistine attempt to eradicate the weaker fledging Israel. Who cannot envision Vladimir Putin as the all-powerful giant Goliath menacing the young boy David in the modern guise of Volodymyr Zelenskyy, attempting to shepherd his valiant nation with a sling of borrowed javelin and stinger missiles against a more powerful foe determined on his destruction? We have lived through more bloody conflicts than we care to remember in the countless centuries since man cast the first stone in anger. The motives for going to war seem endless. However, the justification for going into battle today and the reasons behind those actions align with the age-old call to slip the dogs of war and cry havoc that impacts both the innocent and guilty alike. Even in Biblical times, the human failings of lusting after power, property, and prestige remain the sparks that ignite the human holocaust and invite the deadly four horsemen of the apocalypse to begin their deadly ride of mayhem and carnage.

David is every man’s man, an outlaw prophet, a man of war, and a man of God. He is a ruthless warrior, an ardent lover, skilled musician, and poet-philosopher. God sees in him the heart of a lion, the tenacity of a bear, and an ever-faithful man of action. Thus, God calls an unlikely and lowly shepherd boy to become the king of the Jews and fighting prince of Israel.

David overcomes all odds in escaping every snare, evading every trap, and learns from every encounter, growing in understanding and effectiveness in the love of his Creator. He protects, defends, and enlarges the stakes of Zion, the resting place of God’s chosen people. David reaches the pinnacle of all worldly success.

We Can Choose To Survive Or We Can Choose To Thrive Says Donna Louis, Award Winning Author Of Book Of Proverbs And Her New Bestseller, Thriving In Every Season Of Life With God


 Louis is the multi-award-winning author of three inspirational Christian books. Louis’ books reveal God’s desire for our happiness and joy.

An ongoing global pandemic. An earthquake in Haiti. Another in Mexico City and yet another in Japan. Louisiana hit with another hurricane, 16 years to the day after Hurricane Katrina. This one, Hurricane Ida, managed to kill 43 people and cause extensive flooding and property damage in New York and New Jersey.

These are not merely sensational headlines. These are hard, cold facts. Negativity bias aside, it is no wonder some of us see the world as a horrible place to be. Our brains are hard-wired to be on the lookout for anything that might threaten our survival, and we've certainly seen good reason to be fearful lately. Is having a positive attitude in the midst of such devastation a simple-minded, Pollyanna strategy employed to maintain one's sanity? Should we stick our heads in the proverbial sand, or recite an endless litany of positive affirmations in a vain attempt to shoo away catastrophe?

"No," says Donna Louis, award-winning author of the bestselling Christian book, 'Thriving in Every Season of Life With God'. “We have definitely reached the state of signs and wonders and they are occurring all around us. This is time for us all to not only be praying but to be praying FERVENT prayers to God. We also need to be generating ways to assist others who are struggling and who have been unfortunately placed in these dire situations that are taking place. A man who was a lawyer said to Jesus, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” - Matthew 22:35-40. When we reach out and love and help one another God sees this and helps us with a double portion.”

In the traditions of Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer and TD Jakes, Louis offers readers pragmatic and unpretentious ideas that can help readers take a different view of such dreadful events.

Donna Louis’ latest bestselling book, ‘Thriving in Every Season of Life with God’, gives us a road map to create a mindset - a new life in which we can learn to prosper in any circumstance, however dire.

To understand what it means to "thrive," we must look beyond the dimension of finances. The concept of thriving can be applied to our health, our relationships, our habits and our peace of mind. God wants us to thrive. But it does not just happen - we must take action to make it happen.

Set against the backdrop of four "seasons of life", Louis discusses how we can thrive, prosper, and flourish. Much like growing crops, we prepare in spring, grow in summer, harvest in fall and rest in winter. At times, we must nurture and cultivate, at other times we bloom and reproduce, and at other times we harvest and replant.

'Thriving In Every Season Of Life With God' can be read in just a few hours and provides readers with powerful ideas and concepts that can be implemented immediately, allowing them to thrive in the midst of adversity. The book received a five-star rating from Readers Favorite.

Donna also presents powerful ideas and concepts via her YouTube video series, ‘Motivational Mondays With Donna’. The video series is available at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJCieSU2FYdC09F3YNkfzDw.

Louis is also the author of 'Book of Proverbs, Wisdom vs. Wilderness', which delves deeply into the timeless human quest for wisdom. As all Christians know, the primary purpose of the Biblical Book of Proverbs is to teach wisdom. The Book of Proverbs provides intellectual depth, insights, and exceptional wisdom on how to live a meaningful, joyful and tranquil life by honoring and respecting God as omnipotent.

'Book Of Proverbs' discusses all chapters in Proverbs 1-31 and brings insight, clarity, and basic meaning to several verses in each chapter. It clarifies why wisdom is not only essential, but mandatory in life, if one hopes to live a blessed life, versus living destitute, empty, or feeling lost or hopeless.

Donna Louis' first book, 'Miracles of Direction, Miracles of Conquest, Miracles of Provision and Miracles of Purpose' helps readers explore miracles both past and present. The book explores biblical miracles that took place while Jesus was here on earth. She then references with miracles that take place on a daily basis in the modern world. She separates these miracles into four categories and presents insightful examples of each type, taken directly from the Bible.

Louis knows her subject well, as she has personally experienced four miracles. As the result of those life-altering experiences, she began an in-depth study of some of Christianity's most well-documented miracles. In her book, she attempts to expand upon and explain both the purpose and the direction of those miracles.

Louis has won a number of industry awards. She was chosen as the winner in the 2018 Top Female Author Awards in the Religion/Philosophy/Spiritual category. Louis was chosen from an international field of contestants by a panel of judges. She was also a winner in the 2018 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards.

Louis' recent wins follow three awards in the 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards contest (2015, 2016 and 2017), and two nominations in the Top Female Authors Awards.

'Miracles' has received rave reviews from readers. One review called it "amazing, uplifting and inspirational". Another stated, "I was profoundly impressed by the writing."

Several of Donna Louis' recent interviews will be featured a number of times this week on The Authors Show at http://www.theauthorsshow.com.

Donna Louis is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below, or by email at donnalouisgodsmessenger@aol.com. More information is available at her website.

Press Release: How To Deal With The Stress And Anxiety Of The Covid 19 Pandemic: Award Winning Author Donna Louis Shows Us How To Break The Grip Of Fear In Thriving In Every Season Of Life With God


Louis is the multi-award-winning author of three inspirational Christian books. Louis’ books reveal God’s desire for our happiness and joy.

Just when we believed things could not get worse, thing got worse. We’ve been hit with yet another strain of Covid-19, threatening to wreak havoc on an economy that has just begun to recover. It is a crisis unlike anything most of us have ever faced. Fear, anxiety, worry and stress seem to have become the new normal. Who knows what might possibly happen next?

While it may not seem possible, in the midst of such adversity, there is hope, if we can change our perspective to see things in a different light.

Donna Louis’ latest book, ‘Thriving in Every Season of Life with God’, gives us a road map to create a mindset - a new life in which we can learn to prosper in any circumstance, however dire.

To understand what it means to "thrive," we must look beyond the dimension of finances. The concept of thriving can be applied to our health, our relationships, our habits and our peace of mind. God wants us to thrive. But it does not just happen - we must take action to make it happen.

Set against the backdrop of four "seasons of life", Louis, in the tradition of writers such as Joel Osteen and Joyce Meyer, discusses how you can thrive, prosper, and flourish. Much like growing crops, we prepare in spring, grow in summer, harvest in fall and rest in winter. At times we must nurture and cultivate, at other times we bloom and reproduce, and at other times we harvest and replant.

Thriving In Every Season Of Life With God is a book that can be read in just a few hours and provides readers with powerful ideas and concepts that can be implemented immediately, allowing them to thrive in the midst of adversity. The book received a five-star rating from Readers Favorite.

“Considering this situation, most people are panicking,” Louis stated. “People have so many questions regarding what will happen next. We need to remember that we deal in the natural, but God deals in the supernatural. God is not surprised about what is happening. Instead of becoming paralyzed with FEAR you need to press in and trust God that he will work all things out for your good. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” - 2 Timothy 1:7. Change is the only thing that is constant in life. We all will always be tested, even Jesus was tested while he was here on earth. The thing is we can’t pass these tests on our own we need God’s help. Don’t be fearful because God says, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” – Isaiah 41:10.

Donna also presents powerful ideas and concepts via her Youtube video series, ‘Motivational Mondays With Donna’. The July 2021 lineup includes:

The Battle Is The Lord’s
Vision
Choices
Hope

New Motivational Monday Video Series Episodes Announced By Donna Louis, Award Winning Author Of Miracles Of Direction, Book Of Proverbs And Thriving


Louis is the multi-award-winning author of three inspirational Christian books. Louis’ books reveal God’s desire for our happiness and joy.

Award winning author Donna Louis has announced the June 2021 episode lineup for her new video series, 'Motivational Mondays With Donna'.

Louis hopes to bring words of hope, inspiration, and motivation, delivered via video, that can help us deal with a world in which we are faced with mass shootings, political unrest, and a host of other problems. Faced with such difficulties, it is easy to fall into the traps of anxiety, depression or even hopelessness. In this series, Louis hopes to mitigate that somewhat and wants to let us know that God works in ways we cannot understand. While we might not be willing to see it, there is a plan behind appearances that can lead us to higher and higher levels of self-empowerment.

Subject for segments of Motivational Monday in June 2021 include:

June 7 - Adversity
June 14 - Praise and Worship
June 21 - Integrity
June 28 - The Benefits of Laughter

“In today’s world there is so much upheaval and unsurety that it is mind boggling,” Louis stated. “However, there is one thing we can always be certain of and that is God’s love for us all. He loves us so much that he gave his only son Jesus for all of us. Love must be at the center of all things. This is how we can and should be a beacon of light to the world. We should all be in some form or fashion inspiring, motivating, uplifting each other every day.

“The Bible commands us to do this. “Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:11. “Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.” – Romans 15:2. Have you inspired someone today and given them a reason to believe in themselves and keep going? If not seize the day!”

The new series is available at Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJCieSU2FYdC09F3YNkfzDw

In her latest book, 'Thriving In Every Season Of Life With God', Louis presents the idea that we experience "seasons" in life, in much the same way as nature experiences seasons, with periods of both growth and decline. When we understand that, we come to see that a period of decline is not something permanent, but instead merely foreshadows a period of growth. The book, somewhat similar to the books found in 'Chicken Soup For The Soul' collections, is highly motivational and packed with powerful and engaging stories that give the reader examples of illuminating situations drawn from the lives of both Biblical-era and modern day people

Louis is also the author of 'Book of Proverbs, Wisdom vs. Wilderness', which delves deeply into the timeless human quest for wisdom. As all Christians know, the primary purpose of the Biblical Book of Proverbs is to teach wisdom. The Book of Proverbs provides intellectual depth, insights, and exceptional wisdom on how to live a meaningful, joyful and tranquil life by honoring and respecting God as omnipotent.

'Book Of Proverbs' discusses all chapters in Proverbs 1-31 and brings insight, clarity, and basic meaning to several verses in each chapter. It clarifies why wisdom is not only essential, but mandatory in life, if one hopes to live a blessed life, versus living destitute, empty, or feeling lost or hopeless.

Donna Louis' first book, 'Miracles of Direction, Miracles of Conquest, Miracles of Provision and Miracles of Purpose' helps readers explore miracles both past and present. The book explores biblical miracles that took place while Jesus was here on earth. She then references with miracles that take place on a daily basis in the modern world. She separates these miracles into four categories and presents insightful examples of each type, taken directly from the Bible.

Louis knows her subject well, as she has personally experienced four miracles. As the result of those life-altering experiences, she began an in-depth study of some of Christianity's most well-documented miracles. In her book, she attempts to expand upon and explain both the purpose and the direction of those miracles.

Louis has won a number of industry awards. She was chosen as the winner in the 2018 Top Female Author Awards in the Religion/Philosophy/Spiritual category. Louis was chosen from an international field of contestants by a panel of judges. She was also a winner in the 2018 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards.

Louis' recent wins follow three awards in the 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards contest (2015, 2016 and 2017), and two nominations in the Top Female Authors Awards.

'Miracles' has received rave reviews from readers. One review called it "amazing, uplifting and inspirational". Another stated, "I was profoundly impressed by the writing."

Award Winning Author Donna Fletcher Crow Discusses Sir Frances Drake Prayer, Announces New Historical Fiction Book And Upcoming Jane Austen Video


Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

In her most recent video "Jane Austen From Paradise To Portsmouth" Donna Fletcher Crow discussed the central role faith played in the lives of Jane Austen's naval brothers.This is also a paramount point in a blog available at her website focused on the Naval Prayer, traditionally attributed to Sir Frances Drake.The post was inspired by a talk she attended, given by Gordon Laco entitled "Life at Sea in the Royal Navy in Jane Austen's Time." Laco was Technical and historical advisor for the movie “Master and Commander” as well as for more than 60 other projects for movies and the BBC.

Crow said in a recent interview, “I was fascinated to learn of the great legacy of the Naval Prayer, attributed by strong tradition to Sir Francis Drake, and the historic role it played in the Royal Navy and later in the Royal Canadian Navy. It was particularly captivating when Gordon Laco took off his hat and pulled out the folded prayer he always wore there when serving as Captain aboard an historic vessel in the Royal Canadian Navy.

“The prayer was read every Sunday when Jane Austen’s two brothers, who both rose to the rank of Admiral, served in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic wars. My research uncovered 2 other prayers, of somewhat shaky provenance, attributed to Drake. The Naval Prayer shared by Laco, however, is well known and very well respected, and is attributed to Drake in Navy history. I found the prayer and the tradition around it very moving and am delighted for this opportunity to make it known to a wider audience.”

Donna's new video series now has a second installment in production. In the new video, "Jane Austen From Paradise to Lyme Regis," Crow, (in the persona of Jane Austen), gives viewers a guided tour of Jane’s favorite seaside resort—Lyme (at that time not distinguished with the Regis title). “Jane” will read from letters she wrote to her sister Cassandra, describing a “delightful” time bathing and the assembly ball she attended, as well as her problems with the servants. She will read from her novel ‘Persuasion’, as she takes viewers to the Cobb, Captain Harville’s cottage, and other sites in her last completed novel before she went to Paradise.

Crow also announced a new edition of 'The Fields of Bannockburn’, Book One, The Celtic Cross Epics. This will be the first print edition in over a quarter of a century and will appear as an ebook for the first time. The book was chosen as Best Historical Novel 1996 by the American Federation of Press Women.

In 'The Fields of Bannockburn', three modern young people listen as the Scottish storyteller spins his tales of adventure, romance, and intrigue. While candles flicker and a Celtic harp sings its accompaniment, the question grips them: Can they find the answer to Scotland’s oldest secret?

The odyssey to uncover the mystery behind the Stone of Scone begins on the beautiful island of Iona where Saint Columba battles the druids to bring Christianity to the heathen Scots; the questions mount in ancient Caledonia while Kenneth MacAlpin battles Viking marauders and forges a new nation. Clues multiply on the storm-battered shores of the Firth of Forth, where the Saxon princess Margaret seeks refuge and then stays to initiate civility and renew faith. Finally, William Wallace lights the fires of freedom that Robert the Bruce finishes on the fields of Bannockburn.

Donna Fletcher Crow is the author of 50 books, mostly novels of British history. She has taken a number of high-level industry awards for her work. 'Glastonbury' is her best-known book, which received the prestigious First Place, Historical Novel, award from the National Federation of Press Women. Readers and reviewers have raved about 'Glastonbury', calling it "The best of its kind," "richly fascinating," "beautifully researched," "gloriously evocative," and "panoramic." One Amazon reader said, "WHAT a work! Every reader can be enveloped in the sheer scope and quality, every historian be constantly nodding at the precise detail and accuracy, and every Christian can rejoice in the fullness of scripture. For me it is simply beyond descriptive praise. I would urge all who value truth to treat themselves to a feast."

The Monastery Murders Series features atmospheric contemporary crimes with their roots buried deep in the middle ages. Books in the series include 'A Very Private Grave', 'A Darkly Hidden Truth', 'An Unholy Communion', 'A Newly Crimsoned Reliquary', 'An All-Consuming Fire' and the newly-released 'Against All Fierce Hostility.'

The Daughters of Courage, 'Kathryn', 'Elizabeth' and 'Stephanie' is a pioneer family saga based on the stories of Crow's own family and other Idaho pioneers in the Kuna, Nampa and Boise area. A short story on her blog entitled “A Nostalgic Fourth of July” is based on a scene from ‘Kathryn: Days of Loss and Hope'.

Where There is Love is a 6-book series of the enduring legacy of love and faith all based on historic people and events. The titles are: ‘Where Love Begins’, ‘Where Love Illumines’, ‘Where Love Triumphs’, ‘Where Love Restores’, ‘Where Love Shines’, and ‘Where Love Calls’.

Jane Austen Video Series To Be Produced By Award Winning Author Donna Fletcher Crow, Novelist Of British History


Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

Award winning author Donna Fletcher Crow has announced a new Jane Austen video series. Titled "Jane Austen: From Paradise to ...", the series will take viewers to various locations associated with Jane Austen, her books and the Austen family. Crow recently posted the first installment in the blog section of her website at https://donnafletchercrow.com/p/430/New-Venture-lunched-Jane-Austen-from-Paradise-to-Videos. As Donna stated in her blog post:

"When closures continued this year, I agreed to give the talk originally scheduled for the 2020 Portsmouth BookFest as a Zoom event for 2021. As the idea developed, I decided to let Jane speak for herself and give the whole talk in her persona.

"On the day, the event was gratifyingly successful, but the hoped-for recording was not. This led to my producing the entire talk as a video on my own.

"And thereby was born a new career avenue. I enjoyed the experience so much I have decided to produce a series of videos on “Jane Austen: From Paradise to...”

In the first video, Jane talks about scenes that were important to her family such as the Royal Naval Academy her brothers attended, and Spithead where her brothers' boats awaited their orders to sail and where Fanny's brother William in Mansfield Park was to report.

Jane shares from her letters, such as when she teases Cassandra about the arrival of Czar Alexander I of Russia at Portsmouth for a Naval review. She reads scenes from Mansfield Park including Fanny Price and Henry Crawford's encounter with Mr. Price on the High Street and their subsequent visit to the Dockyard.

Crow said in a recent interview: “I am so excited about this new venture. I found that doing the research and writing the script from Jane’s viewpoint gave me a whole new outlook on the material. I no longer felt like a 21st century visitor looking back, but more as if I were really experiencing the events in the Regency.

“And there are so many places to visit through Jane Austen’s eyes: All the homes she lived in; her favorite seashore spas, starting with Lyme Regis; and countless London sites. My hope is that scores of Austen fans will find new inspiration in watching my videos.”

Donna Fletcher Crow is the author of 50 books, mostly novels of British history. She has taken a number of high-level industry awards for her work. 'Glastonbury' is her best-known book, which received the prestigious First Place, Historical Novel, award from the National Federation of Press Women.

America Does Not Need A King Says Joseph Ganci, Award-Winning Author Of Bestselling Christian Fiction Novel, Gideon The Sound And The Glory


In his three-time bestselling historical fiction novel, Ganci combines Old Testament revelations with modern day revelations, action, and adventure to provide audiences with a unique, emotionally charged experience.

A recent article on the Vanity Fair website titled, 'No One Knows How To Get Trump To Leave The White House In January', discussed the possibility that Trump may try to stay in the White House after January 20, 2021. According to the article, that "may sound comically outlandish, and is indeed unlikely to come to pass. But it is hardly as far-fetched as it might seem, as Trump refuses to concede and continues to insist he won last month's election in a 'landslide.' In fact, he has raised the idea with aides recently, as CNN reported. And while few advisers think he will go through with it, no one knows what would happen if he does try to overstay his welcome."

According to Joseph Ganci, award-winning author of the bestselling Christian novel 'Gideon The Sound And The Glory,' we have seen this play out before - in the Old Testament.

"We are experiencing the advent of dismissing a would-be king," Ganci stated. "Now we are faced with the prospect of removing said king from his throne. Seventy-four million Americans voted to have a king. As we no longer have kings, we have the equivalent of a strongman dictator. Trump has threatened military action and armed force to remain in control.

"The nation started with the madness of King George the Third. We do not need Donald the First and another madman that would be king, bringing our democracy to the edge of extinction. When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.

"Israel demanded a king when Samuel's sons turned out to be inept and corrupt administrators. God warned that you would become slaves to one man's rule of a king. In the end, Israel insisted, and Saul received his anointing. The absolute power later unhinged the monarch. Just with the threat of losing control went to murderous measures to retain his kingdom. Why do some insist on a strongman leader regardless of the consequences? Mostly they can identify with him and receive vicarious satisfaction from a like-minded strongman. The king gives the illusion of security and safety from their firmly held beliefs and dominant culture.

"We have learned by sad experience that it is the nature and disposition of almost all men, as soon as they get a little authority, as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise the illusion of control over the affairs of honest men."

Bringing Biblical characters and events to life, adding vibrancy to archaic stories and historical personalities with odd-sounding names, is the unique talent Ganci brings to his Christian fiction novels.

Ganci takes a ground-breaking and revelatory path in his quest to bring the awe-inspiring story of Gideon to life and ultimately to film. He believes that connecting facts are far more enchanting than loosely fitting fantasies. He works within a framework of an engaging and dramatized fiction that remains faithful to uphold spiritual principles while exceedingly rich in detail.

Ganci bases his work on three primary pillars:

* The rock-solid cornerstone is historical biblical geography.

* The creative arch is revelatory in its timing and issues.

* The research is concrete, firmly rooted in customs, languages, and traditions.

Ganci fills in the blanks with rock-solid research and prophetic revelations. It is a style that has allowed him to create breakthrough approaches that are exciting and breathtaking while remaining within the limits of believable biblical teachings.

Ganci is also the creator of 'Incredible Bible Mysteries,' a five-part video series now available on Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK0Op2dYhMXtz7nh2D__keQ.

Ganci believes that Old Testament revelations are the Word of God. Simultaneously, many needful details remained buried until the information age of discovery made them prominent and visible to the naked eye. These insights create a middle ground of understanding. As a dedicated and highly motivated researcher, he proposes many undiscovered nuggets of spiritual gold in the original manuscripts. He shines a new light on ancient texts and removes the black or white argument of the all-or-nothing question of modern-day revelations. He is adept at untangling the philosophical and theological human-made knots. He allows us to take a fresh look at what some consider to be foregone conclusions.

Readers of 'Gideon The Sound and the Glory' will learn about the Jewish Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant, the mysterious Golden Ephod, how and why David found himself at his battle with Goliath, and much, much more. This work illuminates the dark corners of scripture while engaging readers in a gripping narrative.

Ganci is completing his sequel novel 'David, God's Chosen Crucible' and his many adventures and conquests. David's making of his vast Israeli empire. The shepherd boy king and the capture of his six wives. His torrid love affair with the insatiable Bathsheba, all but provoking a cover-up in a conspiracy to murder. The anointed king who risked it all for the love of a woman. Ganci does it with a deft touch of Biblical erotica in keeping with Bathsheba's sensual bath and the hot sleepless desert nights with a monarch that challenged her fiery passions.

Joseph Ganci was honored as one of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading' in the 2017 Book Awards. 'Gideon: The Sound and the Glory' has received rave reviews from readers and reviewers alike. A recent reviewer stated, "Joseph Ganci's prose is arresting, peppered with fantastic imagery and succinct descriptions of plot, characters, and setting. The themes rise to a masterful recreation. They are woven into the story to allow the reader to enjoy both the inspiration the story offers and the accompanying action. The book explores powerful spiritual and political themes, capturing the conflicts and the dynamics of life within the community of God's chosen people. Gideon: The Sound and the Glory will appeal to fans of political thrillers, adventure, and conflict-driven stories laced with intense action." Other reviewers have used phrases such as "riveting," "amazing," "deftly crafted," and "highly recommended."

Ganci has also announced he will make his book available as a fundraising tool for like-minded associations and charities. Donors can receive an eBook version of 'Gideon' in exchange for a donation to a worthy cause. For more details, contact Joseph via email.

Joseph Ganci is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at joseph@gideonsglory.com. 'Gideon: The Sound and the Glory' available in both print, eBook, and a superb, ethnically correct audio narration, all from online retailers.

Incredible Bible Mysteries - New Video Series Now Available From Joseph Ganci, Author Of Best-Selling Christian Fiction Novel "Gideon The Sound And The Glory"


In this Old Testament historical fiction novel, Ganci combines Old Testament revelations with modern day revelations, action and adventure to provide audiences with a unique, emotionally charged experience.

Joseph Ganci, author of the bestselling Christian fiction novel 'Gideon The Sound And The Glory' has announced the release of a new video series, 'Incredible Bible Mysteries'

There is a great deal of interest in Christian fiction today, and for a good reason - the Bible is filled with true tales that border on crossing over into the realm of fantasy. On the other hand, many stories have not yet come to light. It is some of these stories Ganci presents in 'Incredible Bible Mysteries,' now available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK0Op2dYhMXtz7nh2D__keQ and Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/user63200380.

In regard to new video series, Ganci stated, "Some of the Bible stories in the series that I find most intriguing are:

"The True Nature of God. How the Trinity or The God Head, in reality, is One God.

"The Face of God and the Angels. No man can see the face of God and live, but how and why some have and survived.

"The Elevation of Eli. The High Priest at Shiloh, The Mysteries of the Ark, The Tabernacle, Salt, and The Five Golden Mice and The five Golden Emrods Offered In The Philistine Cart.

"Unless You Destroy The Blind and The Lame You Cannot Enter (Jabus) or Jerusalem. The Connection of The Cave of Machpelah or The Cave of The Double Tombs, and why David's heart was sorrowful at their destruction.

"In the Battle of Misfits and Cattle, David and his band of barely armed vagabonds conquer a regular Philistine army and save Keilah's fortress city."

Ganci takes a ground-breaking and revelatory path in his quest to bring the awe-inspiring story of Gideon to life and ultimately to film. He believes that connecting facts are far more enchanting than loosely fitting fantasies. He works within a framework of an engaging and dramatized fiction that remains faithful to uphold spiritual principles while exceedingly rich in detail. He bases his work on three primary pillars:

Mediumship As A Doorway To Christ: Pat Chalfant's Newest Video Demonstrates That NDE's Can Open The Door To The Experience Of Christ

Oregon Spiritualist Medium Pat Chalfant's amazing psychic gifts have helped hundreds of individuals worldwide. She is the author of 'Spirit Lights A Path To Mediumship'

Pat Chalfant, a CARE-certified medium, knows that mediumship is one doorway to Christ. It is not the only one, however. The near death experience, a relatively recent phenomenon, serves as another. She recently developed a new video, now available to the public, that helps people who wish to "roll away the stone". In her words:

When Dr. George Ritchie, M.D., was a 20-year-old college student hospitalized with pneumonia, he was dead for nine minutes.  But, before he knew he was dead, he left his bed to find someone to talk to.  Everyone he met in the hospital halls seemed too preoccupied to notice him.  He went back to his bedroom, but found in his bed a body covered head to toe with a sheet.  Only one hand was uncovered, and, on it he recognized his own fraternity ring!  He immediately plummeted into a profound depression.  As a blindingly bright white light appeared at the head of his bed, something deep inside his spiritual self spoke in a voice more commanding than any he had ever heard: “STAND UP, YOU ARE IN THE PRESENCE OF THE SON OF GOD.”  Then out of the brilliant light a spirit person emerged whom he immediately recognized as Jesus Christ.  Dr. Ritchie was experiencing the beginning of the tour of the Other Side of Life that Near Death Experiencers (NDE’s) are given by spirit guides.

Dr. Ritchie watched a panoramic review of all 20 years of his life while Christ looked on with him and both rejoiced as it became clear that Dr. Ritchie’s 20-year-old intentions were on the whole quite positive, that he had been learning to love, which is what we all are primarily here on earth to do. Christ took him then to places of learning such as one where people were taught all the many religions of the world from time immemorial and another place where inventions/discoveries that eventually find their way to earth are first conceived.  When Christ directed him to return to earth from this productive, wonderful, loving place, the 20-year-old Ritchie fought to remain.  He tried to leap back into Christ’s presence when he felt himself being pulled back to earth.  His leap was unsuccessful and he was back in his hospital room once more.

Dr. Ritchie has told his NDE story throughout all the years whenever and wherever he has spoken to people.  A student of his, Raymond Moody (a non-believer concerning life after death), who heard him tell it in class thought it was intriguing but only really got seriously interested in the occurrence years later when Moody heard the same story from one of his own students.  By then, he had become Dr. Raymond Moody, an associate professor of philosophy at West Georgia State College.  This time he decided to try to collect more of these Near Death Experiences.  He published a book about his early research, “Life After Life,” after interviewing many people who had died and been subsequently resuscitated.  Since then, he has collected 30,000 letters from NDE experiencers all over the world.  Not surprisingly he now has a very different belief about life after death than he did when as an undergrad he heard his first account about an NDE from Dr. George Ritchie, M.D., professor of psychiatry at the University of Virginia.

Pat's inspirational book, 'Spirit Lights A Path To Mediumship', explains how Pat, a real skeptic regarding such matters, developed mediumship abilities and now lives a life transformed by the spiritual. Mediumship is a controversial issue and Pat understands this, but she also believes that credible mediumship holds the promise of real benefits for mankind that have not been fully explored.

In addition to offering one-on-one client consultations, Pat has penned the 'Spirit Lights Song Book' and three of those songs are in the National Spiritualist Association of Churches hymn book. There are samples of the words and music on her web site, http://www.patchalfant.com, and ‘Spirit Lights’ song books for sale there, too. She does readings for clients by phone and teaches mediumship development classes. She has also created a DVD entitled 'Spirit Lights Development DVD'.

Pat Chalfant's Youtube channel is now available at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9qOQWIWR-DUL8hBDqE5TnQ.

Mediumship As A Doorway To Christ: Pat Chalfant Announces Mediumship Video Series On YouTube

Oregon Spiritualist Medium Pat Chalfant's amazing psychic gifts have helped hundreds of individuals worldwide. She is the author of 'Spirit Lights A Path To Mediumship'

Pat Chalfant, a CARE-certified medium, believes that mediumship is one doorway to Christ. She has been actively involved in mediumship for many years. She recently announced the creation of a Youtube channel, where she will offer video presentations that discuss varying aspects of meditation and mediumship and how mediumship can serve as a doorway to Christ. Pat is very much to the point on the subject, stating that “Becoming a medium was my doorway to Christ.”

Pat grew up in a very Christian family with two grandfathers who were ministers and for many years she attended Methodist church where she was very active, singing in the choir, directing children’s choirs, and for a short time even considering life as a Christian missionary.  In spite of this distinct emphasis on Christianity, she never really felt a deep connection with Christ.  Eventually, she would discover Spiritualism.  It began when she moved from the Midwest to California and, seeking peace of mind, began taking a course in meditation.

During that difficult time in her life, she meditated two or three hours a day.  She says she found the peace she sought, but she found something else, too.  After many months of this routine, one day with eyes still closed, about to end one of her daily meditations she suddenly saw tiny, sparkling white lights.

After that she saw the little lights every time she meditated.  Many months later, she opened her eyes one day after a daily meditation and the little lights were still sparkling in the air around her, as well. But that was not the end of the light’s developments, there was a further one in store for her.  Months later, the little lights began also to be colored lights as well as white ones.  The small, colored lights that flash around her occasionally have continued right up to the present to be with her throughout her life.

Many years later, when she began getting images of things that subsequently started happening in her life, she decided she should develop this beginning mediumship so she attended class in a Spiritualist church.  After she graduated and started reading regularly for people, she began to feel differently about Christ.  When she had been younger, she had felt she longed to have proof of Christ’s resurrection and his promise of life after death, but short of having been there when the stone was rolled away and when he later appeared to everyone clearly still alive, she couldn’t find any proof. 

After she began receiving reports from people she was reading for that she was bringing them convincing proof of the continued existence of their loved ones after so-called death, she finally had her proof.  She began to view Christ in a different light as a result.  So it was that medium Pat Chalfant found the doorway to Christ in her life.  For her, mediumship had “rolled away the stone.”

Pat's inspirational book, 'Spirit Lights A Path To Mediumship', explains how Pat, a real skeptic regarding such matters, developed mediumship abilities and now lives a life transformed by the spiritual. Mediumship is a controversial issue and Pat understands this, but she also believes that credible mediumship holds the promise of real benefits for mankind that have not been fully explored.
