Entrepreneur and Adventurer Ranulf Rayner has kept detailed scrapbooks for most of his life, including letters and photographs from when he was first at school. His life has been an extraordinary one, starting with escaping from his pram. Subsequently expelled from five schools, he later managed to win his spurs as a regular officer in the British cavalry—managing, soon after joining his regiment, to write off a fifty-ton tank. In the army, he also earned to fly helicopters, which while serving, he put to good use by directing the winter sports scenes for the James Bond film OHMSS. After leaving the army, he travelled 75,000 miles around the globe selling helicopters, which took him from an unexplored region of New Guinea—where they had never seen a white man before—to the swamps of Pantanal in Brazil’s Mato Grosso, looking for an Englishman with the same name as an explorer known to have been killed earlier by Indians in the rain forests of Amazon. Readers will find his further exploits equally astonishing for he refers back to some of his more desperate moments while flying light aircraft, climbing mountains, riding the Cresta toboggan run, and surviving a disastrous shipwreck, followed by starting up thirteen unique and entirely different businesses. Most of these moments are recorded in one hundred of Ranulf’s letters to key people, including two prime ministers and the archbishop of Canterbury, which have not been replied to, except with the odd acknowledgment. He wrote his hundredth letter to Donald Trump. He adds some intriguing images and an interesting commentary, but the reason why his letters were not answered is often left for the reader to decide.

Meditations on Life and LivingBorn Out of Love for God are basic but simple testimonials in story format with Scripture as the catalyst and theme for their birth. How many times have you sat alone somewhere just reflecting on the simplicity of lifehow blessed you are, from where you came compared to where you are now. Author, Elois Wilform-Malcolm, brings these everyday things to life. It will seem as though you are right there by her side, witnessing what she does in her own mind, seeing, feeling, understanding her point of view as she correlates biblical Scriptures into her reflections and how your understanding of Scripture can be a driving force for you own life. Meditations on Life and LivingBorn Out of Love for God will allow you to relive your past, reflect on the glory of your present and marvel at your future when you realize the joy, happiness, contentment and peace of mind you attain through a life with God. You will see where you were before salvation, understand who you are in your salvation and strive to be even better through salvation. You will see how Scriptures are being brought to light through everyday life situations. Wait till you read catchy titles such as: Throw Down Your Rocks, The Fragrance of Christ, or Wake Up Everybody. You will find excitement in the directions each testimonial meditation will take you. Reading these meditation will bring about purpose for studying the Bible, which is not to know the Bible but to know God. The Bible is not a book of rules but a book of principles which are clearly and simply brought out through these meditations. We get to know God through His Word, His spirit, our experiences and through prayer. May you be blessed!!
