It's Just Me


Book Description

I'm not famous. I'm not a theologian. I'm not a Bible scholar. I'm not a pastor. I'm just a regular guy who tries his best to make sense out of the world he's living in, including my spiritual world. To most people, I'm just a nobody. But I'm a nobody who questions what people tell me until I can come to peace with it. I don't take anything at face value. That's the way God wired me. The first time I read the Bible, cover to cover, I had questions, a lot of them, forty typewritten pages worth. For instance, why does God get so angry? Does God ever change his mind? Is there only one way to get to heaven? Is it possible to please God? Did even Judas get saved? What about reincarnation? Will heaven disappear? Do you talk to dead people? Can you trust the Bible? Is Jesus really the son of God? And I had questions about things you hear many Christians say, like "God is in control," but is he? I had hundreds of these questions, and I wanted answers. That's what this book is about. It has been seventeen years in the making. I wanted answers, so I searched for them. I met with my pastor. I read books he recommended. I researched various theological views from trusted online resources. There were times I speculated my own answers because I couldn't find anything else to hang my hat on. Sometimes there simply were no answers. But I found out that it's not about getting the answers that's most important anyway. It's the search for the answers. Join me in that search. You might just find answers to some of your own questions.

It's Just Me


Book Description

As I sit here and think of all the memories I could write about, I wonder, why do I choose these stories? I guess one could say it’s because days go by so quickly that before you know it, we’re old. Those turning points I thought about in our lives have turned in the blink of an eye. Whether or not you choose to complete reading this book is completely up to you. However, know just one thing: this book was put together with a lot of heart, soul, heartbreak, love, and, yes, tears. This book is written from three very different perspectives yet much the same woman, with very different stories of heartbreak and laughter. There is one very common thread, my love for God, along with my strength as a woman to persevere through some of the most horrific times of my life, not on my own accord—although at times I thought so—but by the grace and mercy of our Holy Savior, Jesus Christ! I would like to take this time to thank all those who went on my journeys with me—those who supported me, those who held me, those who cried with me, and yes, even those who gave me a kick on the rump when I needed it! I would also like to thank my church for being our rock on those days our lives turned into nothing more than a swamp. I dedicate this book to the ministry that has been helping me throughout the years, for all the goodness you gave to me and others. In his loving grace, Ava Alexandria




Maybe, It's Just Me...


Book Description

Maybe, It's Just Me By: Pastor Nancy Advincola Greetings, everyone, and welcome to the memorable events in my life. In a celebratory manner, I'm giving tribute to the unsung heroes who contributed to the person I am today. After years of countless conversations and observations, I've come to the perception that most triumphs and occasional adversities in an adolescent's life are due to the initial affections that were exhibited or denied can be the primary reason for their demeanor. Furthermore, what has motivated me to write this book was that I yearn to honor those affectionate men and women that are no longer with me, but have in finitely touched my heart and blessed my life. Ergo, as a wife, mother, Pastor, my infinite mission is to tell the world how Jesus Christ has blessed my life.
