Will your retirement plan honor God, protect your family, and last as long as you do?

Many Christians have saved diligently, worked hard, and tried to make wise decisions. Yet as retirement approaches, the same questions keep surfacing.
• Will I run out of money?
• Will I become a burden to my children?
• Are my investments supporting things that violate my faith?
• Have I planned for taxes, inflation, long term care, market volatility, and what happens after I am gone?

Faith Driven Retirement was written to help you answer those questions with biblical clarity and practical wisdom. Roxane Indermuehle, founder of His Faithful Stewards, guides Christian readers through a faith centered approach to retirement planning. This is not just another money book. It is a call to stewardship, alignment, and wise preparation rooted in Scripture.

Inside, you will learn how to:
• Understand the Bible’s view of money, wealth, security, and stewardship
• Align your financial choices with God’s purposes for money, to live, to give, and to grow
• Create a realistic spending plan instead of guessing what retirement will cost
• Recognize the danger of debt and build a plan to eliminate bad debt
• Evaluate investment choices through the lens of biblical responsibility
• Prepare for inflation, taxes, market volatility, and retirement income needs
• Think through long term care, life insurance, probate, wills, trusts, and legacy planning
• Identify holes in your current plan before they become costly problems
• Protect your family while still trusting God as your true Provider

This book is especially helpful for Christians nearing retirement, couples reviewing their financial future, believers concerned about biblically responsible investing, and families who want a plan that protects both their retirement and their witness.

Faith Driven Retirement will help you move beyond fear, confusion, and worldly financial assumptions so you can steward your resources with greater confidence.

Grow your money God’s way.
Protect your children from unnecessary burden.
Build a retirement plan that reflects your faith.

What if some of the most useful plants for your daily wellbeing are already growing around you?

In Wild About Juices, Margo invites you to rediscover the wild and garden plants that have shared our landscapes for generations. Rather than treating herbs as mysterious ingredients found only in specialist shops, this book brings them into everyday life — from a handful of fresh leaves in a morning juice to traditional teas, tinctures, salves, and soothing baths.

Drawing on her background in medicine, years of herbal exploration, gardening, raw food, and more than two decades of personal experience with green juices, Margo introduces 53 wild and cultivated plants. You'll meet familiar plants such as nettle, dandelion, plantain, purslane, calendula, cleavers, and pine needles, along with lesser-known herbs and traditional remedies.

For 29 plants that Margo personally uses for juicing, you'll discover practical information alongside personal stories, nutritional details, traditional herbal uses, and references to published research. A further 24 herbs are explored for their broader traditional applications, with clear discussion of plants that require particular caution.

This practical guide also covers safe plant identification, responsible foraging, harvesting seasons, preparation methods, precautions, and contraindications, helping you approach wild plants with curiosity while respecting their potential risks.

Whether you're completely new to foraging or already growing herbs in your garden, Wild About Juices offers a grounded introduction to wild plant medicine, herbal remedies, green juice, natural living, and sustainable foraging.

This is not a promise of cures or a replacement for professional medical care. It is an invitation to become more observant of the natural world, learn what grows around you, and explore traditional plant knowledge with care and common sense.

Inside, you'll learn how to identify useful plants, harvest them responsibly, incorporate them into simple daily preparations, and create your own connection with the living landscape.

Your next green ingredient might not be on a supermarket shelf. It might be growing just beyond your doorstep.

This book is on discount promotion on Amazon for $0.99 (regularly $3.99) 9/17/2026 - 9/25/2026!

VIBRATIONSHIP: A New Paradigm for Grief explores a question that many grieving people quietly carry: What if death changes the form of a relationship without ending the relationship itself? What if I can move forward with them rather than move on without them.

After the death of her partner, Cheryl A. Page began to question the traditional language of grief—closure, detachment, moving on—and to examine whether love might continue as an active relationship even when physical presence is gone. Drawing from personal experience, a background in clinical research, and years of exploring consciousness and cross-veil communication, she developed the concept of VIBRATIONSHIP: meaningful connectivity between two people on different vibrational octaves.

This book offers a compassionate alternative for readers who have sensed, dreamed of, spoken to, or felt the presence of someone they love after death. It explores continuing bonds, signs, synchronicities, intuitive experiences, grief, consciousness, and the possibility that relationship can continue in ways that do not depend upon the physical body.

Rather than asking readers to adopt a particular belief, VIBRATIONSHIP invites curiosity. What happens when we stop assuming that grief must culminate in letting go? What if healing can include an ongoing relationship with the person who died? And what if the strange, meaningful moments that often accompany bereavement deserve to be explored rather than dismissed?

Written for anyone navigating loss, spiritual awakening, or questions about life after death, VIBRATIONSHIP offers a new framework for understanding love across the boundary of physical death.

Different conditions. Same love. What if?

What if the reason you don’t feel confident isn’t because you lack confidence—but because you’ve been waiting for confidence to come first?

Confidence Is Action: Become Your Most Brilliant, Brave, and Bold Self challenges one of the most common assumptions about confidence: that you need to feel ready, certain, or fearless before you act. Instead, Tricia Conyers shows that confidence is built through what you do, especially when fear, self-doubt, and uncertainty are still present.

Drawing on practical tools, research, and the honest experiences of women navigating real moments of doubt and growth, Confidence Is Action explores the patterns that keep women waiting, hesitating, overthinking, and playing smaller than they are capable of. It then offers a different way forward: taking purposeful action and using the evidence created by those actions to strengthen confidence over time.

At the heart of the book is the Confidence Wheel®, a practical framework built around three dimensions of confidence: Brilliant, Brave, and Bold. Readers are invited to recognise their strengths and expertise, act even when they don’t have certainty, and use their voice to advocate for themselves and what matters to them.

This is not a book about eliminating fear or pretending self-doubt doesn’t exist. It is for women who want to speak up, pursue meaningful goals, navigate change, take opportunities, trust what they know, and stop waiting to feel completely ready.

Whether the next step is personal or professional, Confidence Is Action offers a practical reminder: you don’t have to find confidence before you move forward. You build it by moving.

GET THIS BOOK ON AMAZON

1. What is this I’m experiencing?
2. Does anything exist beyond this?
3. Who and what am I?
4. Why am I here?
5. Does God exist?
6. What choices do I have in any of this?
7. What happens when I die?

These are the seven most important questions you’ll ever ask. These seven critical questions, the answers, and ramifications are the focus of Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness: Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation.

Throughout history, great thinkers have all tried to answer these life-altering questions. From ancient shamans to modern spiritual leaders, people have done their best to guide others to the truth.

As many as 4200 religions sprang up in response to the deep desire for spiritual truth. Most people have followed at least one religion in an attempt to find meaning and purpose in life. Many have jumped from one religion to another, desperately searching for answers, only to find the biggest questions remain unanswered.

Some have, in utter frustration, abandoned religion altogether, becoming agnostics or even atheists. While agnostics settle with the idea that these vital questions are unknowable, atheists firmly embrace the idea that there is nothing beyond this. But that requires a tremendous amount of faith, and just because you don’t understand something doesn’t mean it’s unknowable.

Science has evolved into a quite sophisticated philosophy in which all that is unprovable by science does not exist. However, cutting-edge science now recognizes a realm beyond time and space in which all potential exists. Furthermore, this potential only manifests as physical reality when it is observed. So, consciousness plays a role in the creation of physical reality.

Therefore, this non-physical consciousness or Spirit, which so many so-called rational people deny, is responsible for the very physical reality in which they exist. Still, spiritual truth is what it is: infinite.

Because spirituality is not limited by the strict rules and rituals of religion, including atheism, and science, spirituality expands into what would otherwise be prohibited. Spirituality will dramatically improve your physical, mental, and spiritual health and solve the many problems in life that can only be solved on a spiritual level.

If you’re still reading this, then Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness: Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation is for you; you’re ready. Prepare to have your heart and mind opened to the realm of Soul Consciousness. With love and light, Howard

GET THIS BOOK ON AMAZON

A people-first leadership playbook for building high-performing teams.

Most leadership advice sounds right—and still breaks teams.

On paper, the system works.

In reality? Teams are burned out, disengaged, and underperforming.

Because the problem isn’t the people.
It’s how they’re being led.

In Every Player Is Bigger Than the Program, leadership coach and former championship basketball coach Nick Reich challenges the model most leaders are still using:

Systems don’t create performance. People do.

Through the true story of building a high school basketball team from nothing into state champions in four years, Reich shows what happens when leaders shift from control to trust, ownership, and real accountability.

This isn’t theory. It’s what works when nothing else does.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:
Build trust and ownership inside your team
Lead high performers without burning them out
Create accountability without relying on control
Develop people in a way that drives real performance

This isn’t another leadership framework.

It’s a reset.

Because when people are developed, the system gets stronger.

Not the other way around.

You don’t have to agree with a theology to find it worth understanding.

What if overthinking isn’t your problem? What if it’s your mind’s way of trying to protect you?

Many people spend years trying to silence their thoughts, think more positively, or become more confident, only to find themselves trapped in the same patterns of overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and emotional exhaustion. Dissolving Overthinking offers a different perspective.

Rather than treating the mind as something that needs to be controlled or fixed, this book explores why overthinking develops in the first place and how lasting change comes from understanding yourself more deeply. By learning to work with your mind instead of against it, you’ll discover a calmer, more compassionate way of relating to yourself and the world around you.

Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, mindfulness, somatic practices and real coaching conversations, Alex Østergaard combines practical tools with personal stories to help you move beyond constant mental noise and reconnect with your inner sense of clarity.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:
• Understand the hidden purpose behind overthinking and anxious thoughts
• Break free from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and the fear of being judged
• Build genuine self-worth that isn’t dependent on achievement or external validation
• Develop emotional resilience by learning how to feel difficult emotions instead of avoiding them
• Make decisions with greater confidence and trust yourself again
• Create inner peace without sacrificing your ambition or desire to grow

Whether you’re a sensitive high achiever, a professional navigating chronic stress, or simply someone who feels stuck in an endless cycle of analysis, worry, and self-criticism, this book offers a practical path toward greater freedom.

Dissolving Overthinking isn’t about becoming a different person. It’s about understanding the patterns that have been running your life, meeting them with compassion instead of resistance, and discovering the calm, confidence, and authenticity that have been there all along.

SOLVING the CLOUD thinking game by Lori Higham

SOLVING the CLOUD thinking game by Lori Higham
GET THIS BOOK ON AMAZON

SOLVING the CLOUD thinking game is a business fable about cloud governance, enterprise architecture, technology leadership, and the hidden forces that create organizational complexity.

Through the alternating perspectives of a CTO and CISO, the story follows two experienced technology leaders who are both trying to solve the same enterprise problems—but from entirely different viewpoints. Engineering is focused on innovation and delivery. Security is focused on risk and governance. Finance wants predictable cloud costs. Compliance demands consistency. Every team believes it is making the right decisions, yet the organization becomes more fragmented, more expensive, and more difficult to understand with every new initiative.

Unlike traditional books about cloud computing, cloud security, enterprise architecture, or digital transformation, this story explores the human side of technology leadership. It examines how cloud complexity emerges naturally whenever talented people optimize their own part of the system without a shared understanding of the whole. As platforms multiply, exceptions accumulate, and organizational silos deepen, leaders discover that governance alone cannot solve the problem. The challenge is not simply better process—it is developing a common perspective that allows Engineering, Security, Finance, Compliance, and executive leadership to make better decisions together.

Written as a short business novel, SOLVING the CLOUD thinking game combines executive realism, organizational psychology, systems thinking, and understated humor with practical insights drawn from real enterprise experience. Readers who have participated in architecture reviews, cloud migrations, security meetings, FinOps discussions, audit reviews, or digital transformation initiatives will recognize many of the conversations and situations portrayed throughout the story.

Whether you are a CTO, CIO, CISO, enterprise architect, cloud engineer, technology executive, IT leader, governance professional, security architect, FinOps practitioner, consultant, or business leader navigating cloud transformation, this book offers a fresh way to understand why intelligent organizations often create unnecessary complexity—and how shared visibility, common architecture, and aligned decision-making can produce faster delivery, lower costs, stronger security, and more resilient enterprises.

Every important thing in life comes with documentation. Birth certificates. Medical records. Passports. Tax forms. Yet the moments that shape us most, overthinking, burnout, emotional exhaustion, and the things we never say out loud, are rarely recorded anywhere.

Emotional Documentation is a unique self-help book that transforms everyday emotional experiences into beautifully designed official records. Instead of offering advice, fixing you, or telling you to think more positively, it validates what so many people quietly carry.

Inside you'll discover fictional notices, reports, certificates, and archived files covering overthinking, burnout, quiet boundaries, people pleasing, emotional overload, difficult conversations, social exhaustion, rest without guilt, and the invisible weight of simply trying to hold everything together. Each document is written with dry humour, warmth, and compassion, creating an experience that is both comforting and surprisingly funny.

This is a book for people who are functioning… technically. For those who replay conversations, apologise too much, carry responsibilities that nobody notices, or feel exhausted without being able to explain why. Rather than promising to change your life, it offers something many readers need even more: the feeling of being understood.

Perfect for readers who enjoy self-help, personal growth, emotional wellness, mindfulness, psychology, emotional intelligence, and reflective humour, Emotional Documentation also makes a thoughtful gift for friends, colleagues, therapists, healthcare workers, and anyone navigating the complexities of modern life.

If you've ever wished your feelings came with paperwork, this archive is waiting for you. Because every important event deserves a record, and perhaps the most important things we've forgotten to document are the ones happening quietly inside us every day.

Most conversations about teenagers and phones happen without teenagers in the room. Parents worry. Teachers lecture. Documentaries explain the problem to adults who already agree with each other. Meanwhile, the teenager sits there, phone in hand, having heard it all before — and nothing changes.

The Offline Playbook for Teens takes a different approach entirely. It speaks directly to the reader aged 13 to 16, not about them. No guilt. No moralizing. No demand to delete apps or follow a rigid program. Just honest, clear information about what's actually happening — and then the choice, left entirely with them.

The book opens by explaining what most adults never think to say: that the difficulty teenagers have putting their phone down isn't a character flaw or a discipline problem. It's the predictable result of technology built by some of the world's most sophisticated behavioral scientists, deliberately engineered to be nearly impossible to walk away from. Understanding that changes something. And once a reader understands the mechanism, they have options they didn't have before.

Ten chapters cover the ground that matters most: why the feed is designed to grip attention and how understanding that design begins to loosen its hold; what a single phone check actually costs in lost focus (the number surprises almost everyone); why boredom is one of the most productive states a brain can be in, and what gets quietly destroyed every time you reach for the phone to fill the gap; what sleep actually does that nothing else can replicate, and which part of it phones specifically dismantle; and what genuine, deep focus feels like when you build it back — not willpower, not grinding, but something closer to sliding into a current you didn't know was there.

The book closes with a complete 30-Day Challenge workbook: one experiment per day, building progressively across four levels, designed to be adapted rather than followed. Not a plan to comply with. A playbook to make your own.

Written for teenagers who are smart enough to decide for themselves. Useful for parents who want to hand their teenager something that actually works.

The Offline Playbook for Teens is nonfiction self-help for readers aged 13–16, with crossover appeal for adults navigating the same challenges.

Win Via Trust - The Practical Leadership Framework to Build Trust, Close Deals and Deliver Exceptional Results by Michael Rabinowitz

Win Via Trust – A Leadership Playbook for Making Decisions People Believe In by Michael Rabinowitz
https://us.amazon.com/Win-Via-Trust-Leadership-Exceptional-ebook/dp/B0GSBR7KCP

Trust isn't a soft skill. It's the operating system every high-performing team runs on, and most leaders never learn how to build it deliberately.

Drawing on more than 30 years of executive experience, Michael Rabinowitz delivers a practical framework for leaders who want to move beyond gut instinct and into a repeatable system for earning trust, allocating resources wisely, and making better calls under pressure.

At the heart of the book is the Trustworthy Decision Matrix, a tool that maps how consistently a person or team meets expectations against the difficulty and risk of the project in front of them. The result isn't just a mental model. It's a practical guide for assigning the right people and resources to the right work, so leaders stop guessing who's ready for the next big challenge and start knowing.

Win Via Trust moves through real scenarios drawn from the C-suite, the boardroom, and the front lines of complex organizations, showing readers how trust compounds (or erodes) with every decision a leader makes. Whether you're managing a single team or steering an entire organization through change, this book gives you language and tools to diagnose where trust is breaking down and a clear method for rebuilding it.

Reviewers have taken notice:

"The business advice and self-help genres are filled with similar titles, but few offer advice that's as concise and thoughtful as Rabinowitz does in this work." — Kirkus Reviews

"Timely, exceptional, deftly crafted, real-world practical, and of enormous value... unreservedly recommended." — Midwest Book Review

What sets Win Via Trust apart is its refusal to settle for platitudes. Rabinowitz has spent three decades in rooms where trust decisions carried real financial and human stakes, and it shows. Every chapter pairs a clear concept with an actionable next step, making this as useful for a first-time manager as it is for a seasoned executive rethinking how they build teams.

If you lead people, in any capacity, at any level, this book will change how you think about the decisions that quietly determine whether your team succeeds or stalls. Win Via Trust isn't about being liked. It's about being trusted, and knowing exactly how to earn it. 

Hidden Histories: The Lost Mu Civilization in the Pacific Ocean by Stephanie K. L. Lam

Hidden Histories: The Lost Mu Civilization in the Pacific Ocean by Stephanie K. L. Lam
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Civilization-Pacific-Ocean-Hidden-History-ebook/dp/B0G2F4YXDD

The Lost Mu Civilization in the Pacific Ocean is a book that directly pits the enduring legend of Mu against the hard evidence of modern archaeology. 

Author Stephanie K. L. Lam traces the myth of a lost Pacific civilization from its 19th-century origins through its rise in esoteric circles, and then beyond the debunking into the genuine wonders of the Pacific that the myth has long overshadowed.

Lam guides readers through the megalithic stone cities of Nan Madol and the remarkable true history of Oceania’s seafaring peoples, offering a narrative that replaces fantasy with a truth that is, as the book argues, far more compelling. The book does not simply ask what we believe about Mu it explores why we need such myths, and what humanity’s hunger for origin stories reveals about our own world.
