Victory
The Secret Formula … of how to make your dreams come true.
We all have dreams of great things for our future - right? But honestly, how many of us really know the“Secret Formula” of how to make our dreams come true? Where do we find it? Hidden deep inside the Great Pyramid? Buried under glaciers at the North Pole? Perhaps inscribed on that sacred tree which stands eternal beside the Fountain of Youth? No, actually, both the Fountain of Youth and the secret of how to make your most wonderful dreams come true may be found in a very common everyday place … locked right there in your heart!
Okay, Victory is the little book that started it all! Victory is the heartwarming fantasy dream adventure of eleven-year-old Richie Elliott and Victory, his matronly imaginary 150-foot British sailingship … with an attitude! Sail with Victory on a foggy early-morning adventure off the Maine coast, where she teaches Richie how his faith, his imagination, and pure Down-East determination work together to make his dreams come true. Unique fantasy characters stream in and out of Richie’s dream, making it an “animated adventure” for all ages. This short poignant story, set back in 1969, is told by Richie’s grandpa, Rich Elliott Sr. Move over, Jonathan Livingston Seagull. Victory has taken to the high seas.
With fifth-grade simplicity and in unforgettable, Disney-animated-film fashion, Victory teaches the basic principles of how we are able to direct our lives through the use of our wonderful God-given imagination. Previsualization, goal setting, faith, doubt, self determination, imagination, and day dreaming are all woven unassumingly into the story. Teachers, you should make Victory required reading for every kid you know, ages eight to eighty. This is the little book that became the basis of the family novel, The Tallest Angel.
The Tallest Angel
... Please, sail me back to when I was a kid.
Take an adventure cruise on "The Tallest Angel" of 'em all, back to those wonderful, bygone days of your youth. Angel is a wholesome, "Going Home" blend of fantasy and real life, dancing and spinning together into a warm family adventure novel. It's the kind of story Mom or Dad, Grandma or Grandpa would read aloud to the kids (and enjoy every minute of it themselves) ... or for yourself, when you need to build a fresh, new, "Go Back Out There and Whip the World" attitude.
The Tallest Angel, set in the present, is a nostalgic look back, through the eyes of Captain Richard Elliott - now thirty-seven-year-old, U.S. Naval pilot - as he remembers that 1969 summer adventure he had when he was the boy, Richie, from the previous novel, Victory. This is the book that takes us along and lets us watch as all of Richie's dreams come true, AFTER HE WAKES UP!
Solo
Solo is NOT your mother's "Christian Romance Novel!"
Solo is a fast-paced look at contemporary women and their relationships with men—single men, husbands, fathers—as seen from the perspective of an old-fashioned dad. Our hero, fifty-year-old Paul Wagner, is a widower of three years who is still wrestling with the untimely death of his wife and sweetheart of 25 years. In an attempt to fulfill a dream they shared, he moves to Ft. Lauderdale, determined to live quietly on a sailboat and finish a book he is writing about his wife. Through a turn of fate, this conservative gentleman finds himself thrown overboard into strained relationships with what seems an ocean of younger mostly-mid-twenties women. Paul's traditional convictions have always been as black-and-white to him as speed-limit signs but he now wakes up to find he is in the real world. Grandpa Brady … meet Virginia Slim!
Is this guy's value system still workable among modern-day women? Does he have relevant answers to the painful, often-complicated questions of divorce, abortion, incest, and a young single mother raising her out-of-wedlock daughter? Happily we find that love and eternal values win out. As an older, now-single man, Paul is forced to sound the depths of his own emotions and, in the process, he learns to relate to these younger women as a surrogate dad, offering them fatherly friendship, love, and advice. The last few chapters hold a surprising yet wonderfully gratifying conclusion.
Solo is not a "romance novel" but it contains more true love and romance than a library aisle full of “paperbacks.” The book is most certainly for the woman— whatever her age— who has found herself emotionally bruised and vulnerable, disillusioned and disoriented after suffering the loneliness, heartbreak, and loss of self worth that follows separation from the man she loved, whether that separation came through the break up of a close friendship, divorce, death, or worse. Solo is for any woman who enjoys being whisked away by a warm and cozy love story once in a while and for all you men who need to renew a strong yet tender love for your sweetheart. Think of Solo as a love-letter from Dad.
Solo is unique among women's contemporary novels in that it offers the reader a fresh glimpse at some more conservative lifestyle choices, as held up against the views embraced by most modern-day novelists. And it performs this magic from the sideshow of a tear-jerking, side-splitting, face-blushing, home-spun-advice-and-cotton-candy, father-daughter adventure of discovery. Get ready to have your buttons pushed to the max!
The Devil's Advocate - Transgression
A preacher has gone bad ... but that only starts the chain reaction.
The Reverend Daniel Howard Sutterhall has a secret. Actually, he’s had numerous secrets; brunets, several blonds, and one red head. But when he is caught in the act with the church secretary by several teens in his current church, he resorts to an Academy-award-winning performance to duck the heat. He turns the tables on the teens, accusing them of the very thing they found him doing. His theatrics convince parents and church members alike, eventually placing the teenagers under such intense pressure that they ... well, they simply can't take it.
The preacher seems to have gotten away with the sham until Johnny Chandler comes home from college for the funeral of his kid brother. While home John learns the truth, tracks down the preacher, and pummels him in the parsonage driveway. But Johnny derives little satisfaction from beating the pastor. In church the following Sunday John exposes the preacher and vows to get even with preachers, Christianity, and even God himself over his brothers death. He openly calls on Satan for help to achieve this goal. But this is only the beginning!
