Stepping Out of Darkness Into the Light


Book Description

One million? . . . Three million? . . . Five million dollars? How much money would it take for you to consider robbing a bank...especially if you were certain to get away with it? What if you also had nothing left to lose? When paramedic Dalton Barnett finds his pregnant wife dead, her skull crushed by an apparent fall in the bathtub of their home, he is devastated. But before Dalton can deal with his grief, his friend, Sheriff Brandon Bailey, comes to him with a plan. What the small-town sheriff had always joked about is no longer a joke...Bailey plans to rob the town's bank, and wants Dalton to help him. The plan seems foolproof, and the reward is a cool five million dollars. There's one problem, though...Dalton now suspects that his friend might be a murderer. Proving that could put Dalton's life at risk, and the lives of others...including a beautiful woman named Leigh who's looking to make a name for herself with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. The decision Dalton makes could lead to catching his wife's killer, or wealth beyond his wildest dreams. Before things end, he'll wonder if he made the right choice.




Stepping Out of Darkness Into the Light


Book Description

Stepping Out of Darkness into the Light is a book of action. The Word of the Lord says, "faith without works is dead" (Jms.2:20,26). This book assists God's people in the appointed time to move out from the comfort zone and into a faith walk where the power of God resides. Whenever there is need for change, there is also resistance to change. This resistance presents evidence of fear. Since fear is the absent of faith, it must be dealt with by any means necessary. The Bible says that without faith it is impossible to please God (Heb.11:6). Therefore, it is pertinent that we be relieved of this fear, whatever the cost. The absolute absence of fear will probably never be accomplished in our human state of being. However, there are some steps that we can take that will alleviate many of the symptoms and allow us to move to the next level in God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Stepping Out of Darkness into the Light ushers the reader into the presence of God beginning with ten chapters of devotional reading. Devotional time spent with God is preparation for the coming events at any given time. The segments that follow, introduce a transitory method utilizing biblical steps that bring the readers into an even more intimate relationship with God. When we are confident about our relationship with God, we are better able to represent Him in our daily walk. The world's need for peace is more prevalent than ever before. While God's people may not be in position to bring peace to the world, we can start with ourselves. Utilizing the steps presented in this book will assist in uncovering the dark places in our lives and stepping into the light, one step at a time.




From Darkness Into the Light


Book Description

The work that you are holding in your hands now is the result of a human life full of drama, mysticism and experiences that may seem certainly contradictory for those who are far away from God.

You will also find the fruit of the author's encounter with his Creator; in it, God's mercy and forgiveness rescued a wasted life from the ashes of sin and transformed it into bread of evangelization for the whole world. You will also be able to appreciate the Gospel telling us as how God takes the fool to embarrass the sage. Marino Restrepo never studied theology, neither was he educated in the religious sciences. However, during his life as a missionary, he has made possible for theology academicians and high-level ecclesiastic scholars to hear the simplicity of a Gospel infused in the author's heart by the Holy Spirit.
