Terry's book, 'What Did Jesus Say? The Seven Messages from the Master' contains over 500 Bible verses spoken directly by Jesus as recorded in the red-letter edition of the New King James Bible, organized by subject, without added interpretations, commentaries or opinions.
Question: Are the one billion Catholics really Christians or is it just the Baptists or only the Pentecostals or is it the Lutherans, Methodists, JW’s, SDA’s, CoG, CoC, or is it one of the other independent personality driven churches, that make up over 30,000 different Christian religions worldwide?
Terry Christian, author of 'What Did Jesus Say?' offers some penetrating insight in a new video available at his website. He recently had this to say:
"In my 45 yrs of walking with Jesus based on his teachings, I’m amazed at how many religious leaders (I’ve seen) personally fail teaching from the whole Bible instead of what Jesus said. I was stunned to learn how many different Christian Religions directly attack one another as being evil, doing Satan's work and sending their people to hell, especially the attacks from those against the RCC who gave them their first Bible in the 3rd Century.
"Research shows in the 3rd century a new Christian religion was formed, and they made Sunday a legal worship day while outlawing Saturday Sabbath and added Christmas and Easter to please the pagans. That's the inside story when researched ‘outside’ of religious academia. Real history tells a different story of the Roman Catholic Church as well as the big split in 1600 AD. And now we have over 30,000 different Christian religions all fighting one another in one way or another for a larger share of the audience. Martin Luther was a troubled man in his walk with Jesus and he found solace in Paul’s words, as many do, however it causes many to threaten and attack whoever disagrees with them just like Paul does in his own epistles. This is totally opposite of what Jesus taught.
"Many Christians have never read all 4 Gospels or Revelation to know what Jesus said, they’ve only followed what they’ve been told. Rarely does a Christian research their own religion or focus on what Jesus said because they’ve been told the Bible is all Jesus; yet his words are now printed in red to stand out above all others. Very few Christians know the 4 Gospels and Revelation were written ‘after Peter and Paul’ died as a way of uniting us all in his words, and not just what others remembered Jesus said.
"While composing my book 'What Did Jesus Say : The Seven Messages from the Master', I discovered the great divisions in Christianity were caused by the ‘many’ different religious opinions about Jesus and how differently the same Bible was taught among different Christian Groups. In the end, I was finally able to reconcile it all with what Jesus said to his Disciples in Matthew 28:19-20- to teach everyone what he taught them.
"If you’re a Christian, I encourage you to find out what Jesus said to those who loved and followed him and separate it from what Jesus said to the Jewish Leaders who fought against him. Then read the first half of Book of Acts and you’ll see Peter did what Jesus told him and the church called the Way was launched. The rest is history worth researching outside of ‘religious schools’ designed to protect their legacy over the truth.
To watch the video message, 'Will the Real Christians Stand Up?' visit www.whatdidjesussay.org/blog.
Imagine you're walking down the beach, and you come across a crowd waiting for Jesus to appear and teach them. What would he say? Would he talk about current religious and political conflicts, or would he speak about Love, Light, and Truth? Readers can join in for a walk with Jesus and listen to his words as he shares with them the Seven Messages from the Master. Each spiritual message reveals His teachings that will strengthen and guide anyone to a most peaceful life in Christ.
'What Did Jesus Say' contains over 500 Bible verses spoken directly by Jesus as recorded in the red-letter edition of the New King James Bible, organized by subject. There is no interpretation, opinion or commentary.
Terry Christian's ministry, Foundations For Life, is an online ministry dedicated to helping Christians worldwide. Their calling is to help all Christians mature in their relationship with Jesus Christ. H-E-L-P means Helping Everyone Live Peacefully in Christ.

Real Life Miracle Stories - Author Donna Louis Releases New Christian Book Exploring Real Life Miracle Stories
Donna Louis has experienced three miraculous events. As the result of her experiences, she began an in-depth study of some of Christianity's most well-documented miracles and offers a book that explores these miraculous events
Miracles happen. Pope Francis named 10 saints in 2015. He also recognized Mother Teresa's second miracle, paving her way to sainthood, scheduled to happen in September of 2016.
A miracle is a real-world event that transcends known scientific laws. In Mother Teresa's case, a 30 year old woman in Kolkata said she was cured of a stomach tumor after praying to Mother Teresa. A Vatican committee said it could find no scientific explanation for her healing and declared it a miracle. Miracles do happen and nobody knows that better than Donna Louis, author of "Miracles of Direction, Miracles of Conquest, Miracles of Provision, Miracles of Purpose'.
Louis 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 example of each type, taken directly from the Bible.
Louis knows her subject well, as she has personally experienced three 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.
"Miracles strengthen your belief that God exists," Louis stated. "Miracles propel you to heights you never dreamed you would reach. Pope Francis is a visionary, and Mother Teresa is so deserving of her upcoming recognition as a saint."
Donna Louis was chosen as a winner in the 2015 '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading' awards contest. 'Miracles' has also received rave reviews from readers. One review called it "amazing, uplifting and inspirational". Another stated, "I was profoundly impressed by the writing."
Donna Louis is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at donnalouisgodsmessenger@aol.com. 'Miracles of Direction, Miracles of Conquest, Miracles of Provision and Miracles of Purpose' is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Xulon Press. More information is available at her website at http://www.miraclebook.net.
About Donna Louis:
Author Bio: Donna Louis is happily married to her husband of 30 years Patrick Louis and currently resides in Florida. She lives to accomplish the task that God created her for and on a daily basis to follow Proverbs 3:5-6. "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

Christian Book Author SaBrowny Rae Announces Book Launch Soiree For ‘Backdoor Tales: Lipstick - I, Judas’
Author SaBrowny Rae offers readers two completely unique stories, bundled as two books in one in her newest release, 'Backdoor Tales: Lipstick and I, Judas'. The book launch soiree will be held on October 25, 2014 in Landover MD
Author SaBrowny Rae has announced the release of the second installment in her 'Backdoor Tales' series. The new release is titled 'Backdoor Tales: Lipstick and I, Judas'. To celebrate the launch of the book, Rae will hold a soiree on October 25 in Landover, MD. The event will take place at Signature Blue Events, 337 Brightseat Rd. Suite 120 in Landover. Hours are from 3pm-6pm. The event will be open to the public.
During the event Rae will showcase her new book 'Backdoor Tales: Lipstick and I,Judas', and will also showcase her product line based on her two books. These include a line of 10 shades of red lipstick called Noir Red that represent her novel 'Lipstick' and a line of 3 scents of perfume called September Love that represent her novel 'September Love'. Both products are found in her new collection known as 'SaBrowny Rae's Vintage Inspired Beauty'.
"Writing the Backdoor Tales series has allowed me to dig into the deepest corners of my imagination," Rae stated. "From these four novels the characters seemed to jump off the page and right into the readers lives. I wanted a way that our readers could keep their memory with them as they enjoyed a part of the books. Lipstick's favorite shade of red lipstick and September Love's autumn blends of perfume will keep these two characters on the minds and in the hearts of our fans while enjoying two great products."
Rae's latest work presents a healthy dose of intrigue, mystery, religion, and murder. While Rae's books could be said to be Christian books as they present a number of Christian themes, it would be more appropriate to term them 'edgy' Christian.
In the storyline of the segment entitled 'Lipstick', an unwanted, unloved child is left orphaned by parents who never wanted her in the first place. She is taken in by strangers who want to sell her for illicit favors. Only she turns the tide on them and commits her first two murders. Once this is done, she becomes the person that she was created to be—Lipstick, a wealthy sociopathic murderer. She creates a new life for herself and discovers her true family.
In the storyline of the segment entitled 'I, Judas', the Christ killer is back, only this time he’s assigned to create a new race of nonhumans, ones that will destroy mankind for his master, Satan. He arrives to earth in the dead of the night and realizes that he’s no longer human but can only function as long as he has fresh blood as his source of life. A sadistic, bloodthirsty demonic killer remembers his sins against Christ and the love that he traded for thirty pieces of silver. He finds love again and cheats Satan and his assignment only to have a group of unlikely members form and attempt to send him back.
"'Lipstick' and 'I, Judas' both were books that seemed to have a life of their own," Rae concluded. "Even I was surprised with the endings."
SaBrowny Rae is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at sabrownyr@yahoo.com. Both 'Backdoor Tales' books are available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Xlibris in ebook, paperback and hardback. More information is available at SaBrowny's website at http://www.sabrownyraebooks.com
About Sabrowny Rae:
SaBrowny Rae is a native of Washington, DC where she lives with her husband and surrounded by their children and grandchildren. Her dream of writing in the style of the tall tales of her great grandmother only began with this, her first effort after she retired from her full time job as a registered nurse.
She has taken the written word and weaved a story that will keep readers wanting more using the same style of story-telling that allows readers to dig deep into theirimaginations and see the tale come to life. Her stories are based on romance, intrigue, mystery, religion, and murder.

He finds love again and cheats Satan and his assignment only to have a group of unlikely members form and attempt to send him back.
“I'm excited about this second book in the series,” SaBrowny stated. “I fell in love with Lipstick and wanted more of her. I felt that there should be more of her to come. Then as I focused on I, Judas I found myself being pulled into the hunt for the notorious Christ killer and wanted to bring him to justice as well. All I can say to my fans is to take a deep breath and get ready to endure the ride.”

He finds love again and cheats Satan and his assignment only to have a group of unlikely members form and attempt to send him back.
“I'm excited about this second book in the series,” SaBrowny stated. “I fell in love with Lipstick and wanted more of her. I felt that there should be more of her to come. Then as I focused on I, Judas I found myself being pulled into the hunt for the notorious Christ killer and wanted to bring him to justice as well. All I can say to my fans is to take a deep breath and get ready to endure the ride.”

Storytelling Taken To A New Level: Master Storyteller And Author Sabrowny Rae's Backdoor Tales Redefines Storytelling
Sabrowny Rae grew up listening to her grandmother spin tales. She has taken that art form to a new level in "Backdoor Tales"
Stories such as Godzilla, Lord Of The Rings, King Kong, Batman, XMen and The Wizard Of Oz all have something in common. They are stories we have heard or seen many times before. But now, thanks to new processes and technologies, we revisit these familiar tales gladly. Why? It's the same story, but now retold in a more compelling, sleeker or updated way.
Storytelling has become a buzzword, used by everyone from corporate PR departments to used car salesmen. Real storytelling however is an art form. A real storyteller can take an old, oft-heard tale and into something compelling. A good story leaves us wanting more. We can’t get enough of them. We love those stories, but we perhaps love the storytellers even more.
Sabrowny Rae comes from a long line of real storytellers. She recently released 'Backdoor Tales: Tears Of The Serpent and September Love'. The book is actually two books in one.
“A good story teller always leaves you wanting more,” Rae stated. “This way the reader gets their fill for the price of a single book. The reader saves money and has two complete yet different novels to enjoy. As an avid reader this was something that I always wanted when I read a really good book. I always needed more.”
Rae's stories have never been told before, but are destined to become classics, as they have been created by somebody who understands the art of real storytelling. In the storyline of 'Tears Of The Serpent', after seven thousand years, Satan, king of the demons, begs to be allowed to live in a human for seventy years where he would receive love and form once more. In the storyline of 'September Love', an American slave falls in love with her owner’s nephew. Their love transcends many hardships and barriers as they attempt to be together for life, while the sociopathic son of the slave owner attempts to keep them apart.

Attacking Christians Is The 'New Politically Correct' - Author John DeFilippis Issues Statement
Dr. John DeFilippis, author of 3 fantasy fiction books written for Christian readers, believes it is time for Christians everywhere to take a stand to defend their Christian belief system and religious freedom, or that belief system could be gone from society forever
From the White House to national television networks to the Middle East and beyond, to wage attack on Christians seems to have become the only safe, 'politically correct' position. Dr. John DeFilippis believes that the time has come for Christians to take a stand to protect their religious freedom.
In a piece by Todd Starnes, recounted on the Fox News website, HGTV recently pulled "Flip It Forward" from the lineup after David Benham, co-host of the show in production and son of evangelical pastor Flip Benham, was labeled an "anti-gay extremist". According to Starnes, gay rights activists accused the evangelical Christian hosts of being anti-gay as well as “anti-choice” for their stance on abortion.
Another article by Benjamin Weinthal discussed a recent report by the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom in which it was revealed that "Christians are under seige in the Middle East." The report showed that the number of Christians in the Middle East is now at 10 percent of the overall population. In 2011 the number was 25 percent. The report also revealed that as of February 2014, 40 Christians were either in prison or had been detained as the result of religious beliefs and/or activities.
"I never thought I’d see the day," DeFilippis stated, "when those who defend the sanctity of life and marriage were labeled 'anti-gay, anti-choice extremists,' and would stand to lose their livelihood as a result. Not only is America doing nothing to stop Christian persecution abroad, but our nation is also facilitating it right here at home. History is coming full circle, and while there may not be imminent plans to construct a Colosseum and start throwing Christians to the lions, the government, media, and myriad secular progressive groups are attacking us in other ways in an attempt to destroy our reputations, our livelihoods, and our religious freedom. The most frightening part of it all is that they are actually succeeding. If we don't start banding together and fighting back, the Judeo-Christian values on which our nation was built will be gone from our society forever."
Dr. John DeFilippis writes epic fantasy fiction for Christian readers. In the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, his novels bring to mind the adventure and excitement of Jason and the Argonauts, The Odyssey, and the Arthurian legend of the Holy Grail.
‘The Quest of the Thirteen’ and ‘The Birth of Malgyron’ are the first two volumes of DeFilippis’ epic fantasy series titled ‘The Medallion of Mavinor.’ The series starts with thirteen loyal subjects being selected and trained to make an arduous quest to retrieve the long lost Medallion of Mavinor. Together they work against nearly impossible odds— rugged terrain, mythical beasts, death-defying adventures and, worst of all, betrayal in their ranks—in order to complete their mission. In the sequel, an evil plot is hatched to overthrow the king, one that has dire consequences not only for the kingdom of Mavinor, but for the entire world. The heroes of the story are forced to band together and fight to thwart the plot before it is too late.
The just-released third volume of the series, 'The Crusade Against Darkness,' picks up where 'The Birth of Malgyron' left off. When the forces of good finally mobilize in an attempt to reclaim Mavinor, they realize that they cannot afford to fail in their crusade or the world as they once knew it will be gone forever.
Ultimately the novels are about an extraordinary effort to resurrect a kingdom and the faith of its people in a world where that faith is quickly waning. They serve as an allegory for the assault on Christianity in modern-day society. While the work is classified as epic fantasy fiction, traditional Christian values lie at the very heart of the story and Dr. DeFilippis considers himself to be a Christian author. He is a devout conservative Catholic, and an avid supporter of religious freedom in an age of growing secularism.
“Christians today are facing the same challenges as the characters in my books,” DeFilippis said, “and if they don’t wake up and fight back, then they’ll also face the possibility that the world they once knew will be gone forever.”
Dr. John DeFilippis is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at jdefilippis@optonline.net. ‘The Quest of the Thirteen’ and the sequel, ‘The Birth of Malgyron’, are available in print, ebook and pdf formats from Crossroad Press. ‘The Quest of the Thirteen’ is also available in audiobook format. More information is available at his website at http://www.drjohndefilippis.com.
About Dr. John DeFilippis:
Dr. John DeFilippis was born on March 9, 1970 in Bayonne, New Jersey. He grew up in the Greenville section of Jersey City, graduating from Our Lady of Mercy Grammar School in 1984. In 1988 he graduated from Saint Peter’s Prep and went on to study at Rutgers College in New Brunswick, New Jersey. After earning his Bachelor of Science degree, Dr. DeFilippis attended the School of Theology at Seton Hall University for three years, from 1993 to 1996. During this time he earned his master’s degree in theology and discerned a call to the Catholic priesthood. After ultimately deciding that he did not have a religious vocation, Dr. DeFilippis transitioned into the field of education.
He taught for four years at both the elementary and secondary levels, and earned a second master’s degree in educational administration. In 2000 Dr. DeFilippis made yet another transition, this time accepting an offer to become an academic administrator at Saint Peter’s University in Jersey City. He would spend the next seven years there, and in 2007 he completed his Ph.D. in educational leadership at Seton Hall University. After finishing his doctoral degree, he accepted an offer to become a director in the Division of Academic Affairs at New Jersey City University.
But through all the years of earning graduate degrees, teaching, and working in educational administration, Dr. DeFilippis never lost sight of his childhood dream. That dream was to become a published author, and through tireless work and relentless persistence, his dream was ultimately fulfilled.

Storytelling: Christian Book Author Sabrowny Rae Offers A New Approach In 'Backdoor Tales'
Author Sabrowny Rae offers readers two completely unique perspectives on forbidden love, bundled as two books in one, in 'Backdoor Tales: Tears Of The Serpent and September Love'
[Wilmington, NC May 13, 2014] Google 'storytelling' and you will be surprised at the number of definitions we have developed for the phrase 'storytelling'. Marketing experts believe storytelling can brand and position a company or organization. It is used in education as a teaching tool. There are storytelling festivals held all over the US. What was once just part of a conversation held around the kitchen table or a fire has today been transformed into many specific forms of communication that can be employed to achieve a particular set of goals. Sabrowny Rae, author of 'Backdoor Tales' has taken the art of storytelling in a completely different direction - back in time - in a way that is both unique and engaging.
Sabrowny grew up listening to her great grandmother spinning tall tales on the back porch, back when storytelling was just storytelling. She believes this art form has been lost today, as modern technology has replaced the oral word. She has brought that age-old art form into the present with the release of 'Backdoor Tales: Tears Of The Serpent and September Love'. The book is actually two books in one.
"My great grandmother," Sabrowny stated, "said that the heart of story telling allows the person listening (and in this case the reader) to be able to step into the tale and become a living part of it. It offers the listener (reader) to allow their imagination to take them to heights unheard of or ever seen before."
In the storyline of 'Tears Of The Serpent', after seven thousand years, Satan, king of the demons, travels back to the outskirts of heaven to seek the Son of God. He has a request to ask of God. He wants to experience love once more before he is thrown into the lake of fire. The king of all evil humbles himself with tears and begs to be allowed to live in a human for seventy years where he would receive love and form once more.
In the storyline of 'September Love', an American slave falls in love with her owner’s nephew. Their love transcends many hardships and barriers as they attempt to be together for life, while the sociopathic son of the slave owner attempts to keep them apart.

Religious Freedom Movement And The Arizona Anti-Gay Bill: Author John DeFilippis Issues Statement
Dr. John DeFilippis, author of 3 fantasy fiction books written for Christian readers, believes it is time for Christians everywhere to take a stand to defend their Christian belief system and religious freedom
A recent article on the CNN website stated that the veto of Arizona's anti-gay bill would likely not put an end to the religious freedom movement. The article also lists 12 other states which have begun crafting legislation to help protect those who make decisions based on religious principles. Dr. John DeFilippis believes that the time has come for Christians to take a stand to protect their religious freedom.
"I’m not surprised," DeFilippis stated, "that the religious freedom movement is starting to take shape. For years now public schools have been confiscating bibles and rosaries from students, and having them turn their shirts inside out if it depicts an image of Christ. There have been lawsuits filed to remove crosses from memorials, monuments of the Ten Commandments from courthouses, and Nativity scenes from public buildings. But I believe that the contraception mandate in Obamacare was the last straw. For the federal government to be fighting a legal battle against the Little Sisters of the Poor—whose ministry in the United States dates back to 1868—is shameful and outrageous. Thus the time has come for those who believe in freedom of religion to take a stand and fight back."

In the sequel, an evil plot is hatched to overthrow the king, one that has dire consequences not only for the kingdom of Mavinor, but for the entire world. The heroes of the story are forced to band together and fight to thwart the plot before it is too late.
The just-released third volume of the series, 'The Crusade Against Darkness,' picks up where 'The Birth of Malgyron' left off. When the forces of good finally mobilize in an attempt to reclaim Mavinor, they realize that they cannot afford to fail in their crusade or the world as they once knew it will be gone forever.
Ultimately the novels are about an extraordinary effort to resurrect a kingdom and the faith of its people in a world where that faith is quickly waning. They serve as an allegory for the assault on Christianity in modern-day society. While the work is classified as epic fantasy fiction, traditional Christian values lie at the very heart of the story and Dr. DeFilippis considers himself to be a Christian author. He is a devout conservative Catholic, and an avid supporter of religious freedom in an age of growing secularism.
“Christians today are facing the same challenges as the characters in my books,” DeFilippis said, “and if they don’t wake up and fight back, then they’ll also face the possibility that the world they once knew will be gone forever.”

About Dr. John DeFilippis:
Dr. John DeFilippis was born on March 9, 1970 in Bayonne, New Jersey. He grew up in the Greenville section of Jersey City, graduating from Our Lady of Mercy Grammar School in 1984. In 1988 he graduated from Saint Peter’s Prep and went on to study at Rutgers College in New Brunswick, New Jersey. After earning his Bachelor of Science degree, Dr. DeFilippis attended the School of Theology at Seton Hall University for three years, from 1993 to 1996. During this time he earned his master’s degree in theology and discerned a call to the Catholic priesthood. After ultimately deciding that he did not have a religious vocation, Dr. DeFilippis transitioned into the field of education.
He taught for four years at both the elementary and secondary levels, and earned a second master’s degree in educational administration. In 2000 Dr. DeFilippis made yet another transition, this time accepting an offer to become an academic administrator at Saint Peter’s University in Jersey City. He would spend the next seven years there, and in 2007 he completed his Ph.D. in educational leadership at Seton Hall University. After finishing his doctoral degree, he accepted an offer to become a director in the Division of Academic Affairs at New Jersey City University.
But through all the years of earning graduate degrees, teaching, and working in educational administration, Dr. DeFilippis never lost sight of his childhood dream. That dream was to become a published author, and through tireless work and relentless persistence, his dream was ultimately fulfilled.

2,123 Christians Killed For Faith In 2013 – Dr. John DeFilippis Urges Christians To Take A Stand
2,123 Christians were killed last year due to their faith. This number is nearly double the number from 2012. Dr. John DeFilippis, author of ‘The Quest of the Thirteen’ and ‘The Birth of Malgyron,’ believes it is time for Christians to take a stand
In a recent article posted on the Fox News website, Open Doors, a group that tracks the number of persecuted Christians worldwide, revealed that 2,123 Christians were killed for the faith in 2013. This number is up considerably from the 2012 figure of 1,201. Dr. John DeFilippis, Christian author of ‘The Quest of the Thirteen’ and ‘The Birth of Malgyron,’ believes it is time for Christians to take a stand.
“History is coming full circle,” DeFilippis stated, “for the war on Christianity is clearly becoming more hostile and expansive. As the number of martyrs continues to grow, one can’t help but feel as though our present-day society is reverting back to the days of Nero and the brutal persecutions he carried out in an attempt to extirpate the Christians. But just as Nero fiddled while Rome burned, so the majority of today’s Christians are standing idly by as Muslims, atheists, and secular progressives launch unceasing attacks against our faith.”
Dr. John DeFilippis writes epic fantasy fiction for Christian readers. In the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, his novels bring to mind the adventure and excitement of Jason and the Argonauts, The Odyssey, and the Arthurian legend of the Holy Grail.

New Christian Fantasy Fiction Novel By John DeFilippis Compared To Lord Of The Rings And Game Of Thrones
The Quest Of The Thirteen by New Jersey author John DeFilippis features thirteen men on a quest to save a kingdom and its people.
Dr. John DeFilippis recently released The Quest Of The Thirteen. The new book is an epic fantasy fiction novel for Christian readers. In the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, The Quest Of The Thirteen brings to mind the adventure and excitement of Jason and the Argonauts, The Odyssey, and the Arthurian legend of the Holy Grail. The new release offers a message of faith and hope while remaining true to the epic fantasy fiction format. It has been compared to The Lord Of The Rings and Game Of Thrones.
“I wrote this book,” Dr. DeFilippis stated, “as the fulfillment of a lifelong dream. As a boy, I was quite fond of epic stories such as The Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings, and longed to one day write my own series of epic fantasy novels. Little did I know that 30 years later I would finally get the opportunity to do so after losing my job during the economic recession. I firmly believe that this is something God inspired and called me to do, and I hope that those who purchase The Quest of the Thirteen will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.”
In the storyline, a battle-weary kingdom is in chaos. The people lose their faith as the king is dying with no heir in line. Salvation may lie in a chronicle discovered amongst the dusty tomes in the library of the scribes. A passage describes a medallion of enormous power that holds the key not only to saving the kingdom but to identifying the future king. Thirteen loyal subjects are selected and trained to make the arduous quest to retrieve the medallion. Together they work against nearly impossible odds— rugged terrain, mythical beasts, death-defying adventures and, worst of all, betrayal in their ranks.
“Readers will enjoy this book,” DeFilippis continued, “whether they’re looking to strengthen their religious faith, be inspired in some way, or simply just searching for an exciting fantasy novel that features death-defying adventures and battles with mythical monsters. The array of diverse characters makes it possible for everyone to find a character they can relate to and root for throughout the course of the book. Laid on a strong moral foundation, The Quest Of The Thirteen is laden with Christian themes, biblical references, and aspects of spirituality that will make it appealing to any Christian reader, even those who otherwise might not be interested in the fantasy genre. But the religious overtones are also subtle enough that anyone who wishes to read it purely as a thrilling, epic adventure story can do just that.”

Dr. Larry Manley, Author Of 'Filling My Life With Joy', Details His Real Life 'The Pursuit Of Happiness' Story
Motivating books and inspirational books can be found everywhere. Many of these are platitudes, simple words of encouragement or motivation based on theory. Dr. Larry Manley writes from real life experience. In his latest book he details how he overcame incredible challenges to create a life filled with joy. He demonstrates clearly how others can achieve that goal
Dr. Larry Manley has released 'Filling My Life With Joy/A Guide to the Better You'. Dr. Manley's new work describes his own 35-year journey through addiction, homelessness, jail and eventual redemption through sheer determination, perseverance and faith. His story has been called a real life version of 'The Pursuit Of Happiness'.
Dr. Manley's book differs from other motivating books, inspirational books and religious books. He teaches readers how to nourish their souls with what he calls the three 'essential ingredients', and asks them to then stand back and watch it grow.
“I wrote the book," stated Dr. Manley, "to help people find their way back to their place of honor and respect; to be able to live a life of joy as God intended. I discovered my own personal joy from an unseen force of Supreme Authority that convinced me to once again stand tall."
In this inspirational book, Dr. Manley shares three powerful concepts that, if embraced, can bring peace, joy and success to anyone's life, regardless of circumstance:
1. Something that's right for us to do
2. Somethign that's right for us to love
3. Something that's right for us to hope for
"My revelation," Dr. Manley continued, "compelled me to share these three things that can bring joy to anyone’s life. These facets are something that’s right for us to do, love and hope for. As ‘gardeners of our soul’, these powerful forces can cause our lives to bloom once again."
While primarily a Christian's book, 'Filling My Life With Joy' provides rock solid, true-to-life, specific guidance to anyone who might be experiencing life challenges, regardless of the severity or perceived hopelessness of those challenges. As the popular movie 'The Pursuit Of Happyness' gave thousands of people hope, Dr. Manley offers not only encouragement and motivation but also specific methods for achieving one’s goals. Above all, he provides proof that anyone can overcome the challenges faced by following the guidance in 'Filling My Life With Joy/A Guide To The Better You'.
Dr. Manley is available for interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at drlmanley@gmail.com. 'Filling My Life with Joy/A Guide to the Better You', is available from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and WestBow Press. More information on both his new release and his ministry is available at his website.
Profile:
Dr. Manley is the Executive Director & Senior Pastor of the House of Destiny International Ministries. He is a Christian counselor, teacher, minister, an inspirational public speaker. Other Christian books include 'Majestic One' and 'Jungle Within'.
Dr. Manley served in the U.S. Navy and was Honorably Discharged in 1971. He was awarded the National Defense Award Medal for his military service. He is a Graduate of the Leadership Development Institute of Spartanburg, SC, and holds a Doctorate of Divinity at Progressive Life Church. He is a graduate of South Carolina Baptist Convention New Works Seminar, and is a graduate of The Granoff School of Music.
