Because God Smiled, I am Laughing is a book that shares some of the Supernatural moves of God in my life, from prophecies fulfilled to the appearance of ministering angels. I also dispel some of the false doctrines that limit spiritual growth in the lives of Christians and the church at large. My vision of who God is comes from years of devotion to prayer, study of His written Word and seeking not the approval of man.

Having a personal relationship with God; there is no short cut or magic answer to the question, "How do I know Jesus?" You must train your body, soul and spirit as a soldier of Christ and decide to be committed even when you do not see what may lie ahead. Those who put their personal relationship with Jesus first will not faint because their life is rooted in the promises of God. This book is about the life of faith, life of hope, and the vision of my to serve the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The views reflected in this writing are profoundly religious, theological, and supernatural. The determined will of humanity is too territorial and the covetousness is selfabsorbing. We should give honor to those called by God remembering to place the needs of others before our own. Jesus Christ is our example. To love Him is to embrace prayer and love to hear His words. Prayer moves God. Prayer is so important that even the angels make intercessions to God for us. A deep relationship with God is what we need so that we can be victorious against the principalities and powers of all demonic forces.

Is Your Life Working? Most of us are trying to put together the jigsaw puzzle we call life without a very important piece. Over time this becomes incredibly frustrating. In this extraordinary book, Matthew Kelly powerfully demonstrates that we cannot live the life we have imagined, or experience the joy we yearn for, unless we learn to tend the soul. From there, with his classic style of practical wisdom, he teaches us how to remedy this problem. When our bodies are hungry, our stomachs growl. When our souls are hungry, we become irritable, restless, confused, overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, discontent, and tend to focus on the things that matter least and neglect the things that matter most.

The Author, Apostle E. Uche Nyeche, writes with conviction and unapologetically lays out some of the ills in our relationship with God and His church. Like Jeremiah, the author is fearless and bold in charging us to ask questions of God as He would welcome us to. Our purpose must be to hear from God not in error but in the clarifications of a deepened faith in Him in enablement of us to defend our faith in Truth and by Deed to His honor. As one who is called of God, for God, and with his rich knowledge of the Word, and his Spiritual well, the enrichment in his writing is that of an anointed apostle. The breath of fresh air is the affluence both in philosophical thinking and the theologically exposition of his latest work.

The old Yiddish proverb, “We plan, God laughs,” expresses a truth everyone can relate to. At every stage of life we make plans, setting out where we want to go and imagining what we will be like when we have “arrived.” But things have a way of turning out not quite as we hoped or expected. In WE PLAN, GOD LAUGHS, Sherre Hirsch argues that too often our plans are limited to ones we think up at bedtime, or are devised by our parents, or by what looks good on a résumé. Addressing serious spiritual issues, Hirsch takes readers through ten basics steps for formulating a plan that reflects who we are now and who we want to be—a plan that is alive, organic, and in sync with God. Hirsch teaches the importance of letting go and recognizing that even the most ordinary life is extraordinary in the eyes of God. She makes no foolish promise that life will turn out as we plan, but shows that with hope, faith, and belief, we can change our lives for the better and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

“Between Heaven and Mirth will make any reader smile. . . . Father Martin reminds us that happiness is the good God’s own goal for us.” —Timothy M. Dolan, Archbishop of New York From The Colbert Report’s “official chaplain” James Martin, SJ, author of the New York Times bestselling The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, comes a revolutionary look at how joy, humor, and laughter can change our lives and save our spirits. A Jesuit priest with a busy media ministry, Martin understands the intersections between spirituality and daily life. In Between Heaven and Mirth, he uses scriptural passages, the lives of the saints, the spiritual teachings of other traditions, and his own personal reflections to show us why joy is the inevitable result of faith, because a healthy spirituality and a healthy sense of humor go hand-in-hand with God's great plan for humankind.
