HUNGERING FOR GOD by Andy Ripley  

HUNGERING FOR GOD by Andy Ripley

To have a greater hunger for God ought to be our biggest desire. To love His word more than our necessary food, to long for Him as the deer pants for water – this is who we want to be. This book contains eight sermons preached over several years of searching for ways to increase our hunger for the Lord. Our goal is to become people of one desire, like David in Psalm 27:4 – available for the reduced pre order price of $2.99.

DON’T LET THE DR. WAKEFIELD’S OF THE WORLD CONVINCE YOU TO ENDANGER YOUR CHILD’S LIFE by Dr David L. Grimes  

DON’T LET THE DR. WAKEFIELD’S OF THE WORLD CONVINCE YOU TO ENDANGER YOUR CHILD’S LIFE by Dr David L. Grimes

My name is Dr. David L. Grimes MD MPH and I am the author of DON’T LET THE DR. WAKEFIELD’S OF THE WORLD CONVINCE YOU TO ENDANGER YOUR CHILD’S LIFE. Being published on Amazon 7/1/21
Here’s a short description:
How much is the life of your child or grandchild worth?
This story starts with a milkmaid named Sarah Nelms in 1796. It resulted in the complete elimination of a plague that killed millions of people all over the world. Dr. Jenner developed the first “vaccine” that would go on to save millions of lives around the world. We now have multiple vaccines that prevent over 10,000 deaths every year in the US. We have vaccines that can prevent cancer. Yet, we have parents that have been convinced by quacks that it is safer not to vaccinate their children. They make their children drink the “Jim Jones Kool Aid”. This has deadly consequences. This book is being written to help parents and grandparents understand the importance of continuing to use these safe vaccines to save their own lives and their children’s lives. It will cover a brief history of vaccine development and the dramatic reduction of diseases and deaths after the use of vaccines. Parents that stopped their children’s vaccines, then must live with the guilt if their children die from vaccine preventable diseases and unnecessary deaths.
Decisions have consequences, your child’s life may hang in the balance. Many of my parents with new babies or grandchildren have questions about the risks and benefits of vaccines. I have written my first book to make these answers available to everyone concerned about vaccines. This book is based on my 50 years of medical training in obstetrics and public health. Many quacks have convinced parents not to get their child vaccinated, with deadly results. This book reviews the history and safety of vaccines in an easy to understand and read book so parents and grandparents can make an educated decision and not risk the lives of their children.
In my quest to connect with new readers I see you might enjoy reading books in the Health genre. I hope you do not mind me reaching out to you but I’m seeking reviews for my book and thought you’d be a good match. I am looking for reviews on Amazon, after publication, so that I can get some feedback from readers, people just like you!
I would greatly appreciate it if you would check out my book and leave me a review. I would really value your opinion! Please let me know and I’ll send you the book straight away!

The Guilty Parents – Screen Kids: A Reassuring Guide to Parenting Screen Time, Preventing Digital Addiction, and the Uses of Technology for Positive Child Development  

About The Guilty Parents – Screen Kids: A Reassuring Guide to Parenting Screen Time, Preventing Digital Addiction, and the Uses of Technology for Positive Child Development

Currently running at a discounted price of $0.99 for the ebook and $9.97 for the paperback. The Guilty Parents – Screen time book intends on flipping the often negative narrative around screen time.

How much of it we should allow, is one of the most discussed topics out there, the horror stories would have us believe that it does nothing but rot your child’s brain. Often, these barely credible opinions can sway a parent into making rash decisions concerning how long their child should spend on devices well also making parents feel inadequate for even just allowing screen time in the first place.

In this book, John and Kimberley Woods take the lid off this powder keg issue and look inside the barrel to show us that screen time, as a whole, has been vastly misrepresented. We have all heard the negativity surrounding this topic so how about some positivity for once!?

Through their own experiences as concerned parents and with a background in various research and science degrees, they will take our hand and lead us through the minefield that is screen time and the choices we make concerning our children’s health.
• Is my child becoming lazy?
• Is too much screen time making them become a loner?
• Is on-screen violence turning my child into a criminal?
These are some questions that we have all asked ourselves at some stage while our child stares at a screen.

All of these questions, and many, many more will be tackled and answered in an informative and occasionally humorous way, that will take some of the edge off of an issue that can sometimes consume us in this technological world.

All of your fears will soon be laid to rest, as they not only debunk a lot of these opinions but give wonderful tips, tricks, and answers to the unavoidable ones that really can become a problem.

With an open-minded view on screen time, and a balanced opinion delivered in a conversational, yet educated manner, John and Kimberley will help you to understand the joys and benefits that can be achieved by not only embracing screen time but by using it as a tool.

Razorback  

About Razorback

Self-employed and unchained from the shackles of a traditional daily routine, Leon is afforded plenty of time for… himself. Especially since his wife, Pickle, has been spending more and more time staying with her sister.

A habitual procrastinator and ritualistic day-drinker, Leon whiles away his time batch-selecting client emails “Mark as unread”, grilling in the driveway, and building up a strong “yellowwater” buzz for his voyeuristic neighborhood walks to the mailbox. But, with an escalating gush of libations spilling through his mouth, a curious encounter with his neighbor and her soon-to-be-estranged husband becomes the catalyst that sends the compulsively introspective—and judgmental—Leon tumbling into an abyss of sweat-drenched ruination.

Increasingly challenged by what should be mundane exercises in societal engagement, and with the elemental structure of his life in splinters, Leon eventually finds himself face-to-face with the punishing reality of being truly, purely alone… and trapped inside a sprawling pseudo-European chain store famous for their flame-retardant furniture.

Hilarious, absurd, and surreal, Razorback is an outrageous modern take on the “superfluous man”. An epic disintegration of consciousness and composure that questions the true nature of who we think we know, who we may very well be, and the limits of redemption.

Author Bio:
Faye Madden believes she is one of the lucky ones because for her it was love at first sight. It is the moment of that first shy glance when you know he or she is the one, your soulmate, lover, and friend for the rest of your life. It is one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the universe that two people make the biggest decision of their lives on a single look, guided only by the omnipotent hand of destiny.

Since that chance meeting with her wonderful husband David, she has raised a family, and now the children have flown the nest, she has the time to write, which is her second love.

All of her novels are sweet and wholesome, and through her richly crafted characters she explores all the heartache, pain, yet ultimately joyous happiness love brings, however that journey may unfold. Many of her novels explore this through the prism of a second chance romance, whilst others focus on love lost and found, or in unrequited love.

She shares a love of the outdoors with her husband, and together they can be found either sailing on one of the lakes near their home or trekking through the pine forests on horseback. And in the summer like a pair of snowbirds, they love to holiday in pretty coastal towns with their beloved dogs, and where many of her novels are set.

There, the heir to the throne meets Alexander, an heir to a successful company, a gorgeous-looking man, who does not want to have anything to do with the unknown girl. But there is something about her that makes him restless.

“I see her lips moving when she keeps talking, and I get an urgent need to kiss her. Stupid, stupid me! Do not even think of doing anything like that. I am not interested in her, and she certainly does not like me.”

And then he kisses her.

“I have never experienced what I did when we kissed. I need to know what it was or is or could be. You confuse me, and I think that you feel the same.”
“That feeling cannot and must not exist,” she says and turns her gaze away from him.
“But it does,” he says.

“This cannot happen. I have to stop wanting him, longing for him, dreaming of him. My parents and my people would never accept him, an American playboy.”

Turn the pages to find out what happens when Alexander finds out who she really is.
Will there be a happily ever after for the princess and the man with a questionable playboy reputation?

Author Bio
I grew up as a Navy brat landing in Albuquerque, NM, in 1971 as a nine-year-old kid. My father and I joined Boy Scouts Troop 280 when I was 12 years old. Boy Scouts was my first experience with camping, and I loved every minute of it. We went car camping, backpacking, and trekking afloat in canoes and kayaks.
Since then, I have never looked back. My wife, two children, and I have gone camping many times. When my son was of age, he and I joined Boy Scouts Troop 395. He reached the rank of Eagle Scout. I eventually became Scoutmaster for a couple of years after attending Woodbadge Leadership training. We had a blast camping together through the years.
Some of my best memories come from camping experiences. Being 58 years old, I still love to camp. I relish my time camping with my wife and following her around while she fishes. I also get outdoors with friends whenever I can. Soon we’ll take my daughter and grandson with us. We’re constantly experiencing new camping spots as long as the water is available to fish in. We try new recipes and still learn lessons every time we camp.
I have slept in a tent in my time camping, survived in the wilderness, now called bushcraft, to camping in a Pop-Up camper with my wife.
I now enjoy my time with my wife, children, and dog. When I am not camping or writing, I enjoy playing many different games—playing board games in the evenings with my wife and daughter, usually Settlers of Catan or other Catan games. Every few weeks, I play Dungeons and Dragons with my son, brother, and friends, alternating Dungeon Master duties with my brother. About every two months, the extended family gets together for family game day. We make delicious food and play cards enjoying each other’s company and catch up with our busy lives.
When I can, I do handyman or maintenance work. I have a knack for fixing things and upgrading outdated fixtures and houses. In the future, I will do more camping, spend more time with family, and write more books.
I am looking forward to passing my camping skills on to my grandson.

If you wish to contact me with any questions or concerns, or to just say hello my email is: menash4cgh@comcast.net
Thank you for your interest in Campground Hound.

Do you want to take your nonprofit to the next level?
Having spent most of my career with a national leader in the nonprofit space, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from many outstanding, and highly knowledgeable colleagues—both within and outside our organization’s movement. It’s All About the Board brings this accumulated knowledge to you.
My leadership experience varied from a small nonprofit to a growing medium-sized organization. In each of my roles, I found myself leading turn-around efforts. The teams I was fortunate to lead, including the board, staff, and volunteers, successfully took the organization to the next level and beyond. The secrets to growing these organizations are contained in this book.
Along the way, I learned best practices for virtually every type of issue and situation. Being the leader or in the top leadership of the board or staff is demanding. Challenges and obstacles are common in nonprofit leadership. I found that having as many best practices as possible in place makes it much easier to focus on problems as they arise. I teach these principles in my book.
In this book, you’ll learn strategies, techniques, and systems that will develop and improve board development and membership, fundraising, the major donor campaign, the governance committee, and the importance of assessing your board! Written by a seasoned Nonprofit Consultant, It’s All About the Board is packed with information vital to your nonprofit’s growth and success. Complete your bookshelf with this book today!
