1 Corinthians : Dr Andrew C S Koh
Foreword
Archbishop Ng Moon Hing, Anglican Archbishop of Southeast Asia
Many people, including Christians, are looking for a perfect church. Someone once said this aptly: ‘If you find a perfect church, please do not join it; because once you join it, it will become imperfect.’ Christians today are always very critical of their church and leadership. They seem to think that the grass is greener next door. They are unconsciously hoping for a ‘Garden of Eden’ within their church. Unfortunately, some Christians resolve to leave their church, which is imperfect, and journey to the next church, which they think is better.
Reviews:
The first question Dr. Koh asks of us when entering this Bible Study is “Do you want to grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ?” If your answer is yes then I think this is the study for you. I am not an authority on the study of the Bible but having read through this outline, I believe you will be on the path. 1 Corinthians is a Christ-centered, life-changing, Bible study guide and daily devotional guide for readers from all walks of life. Dr. Koh emphasizes that all Scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and all are given for us to learn and grow. The study is well written and broken down into units for each participant to review and learn from the word of God. I received this novel from StoryOrigin. This review is my honest opinion, Pamela Anne Reinert, Goodreads, 5 out of 5
A Great Read: A very inspiring book on the teaching of the Apostle Paul. A clear explanation of each chapter for a good Bible study. Apostle Paul did not mince words but was very direct in his words. His great love for God is shown in these teachings. There are inspiring prayers too in each chapter. I found this book very informative and better understand these teachings. I am on the ARC team. I leave an honest review. I also recommend this book to other readers, Sharmani Jeyaram, Amazon, 5 out of 5 stars,

Acts, Volume 1 and 2 : Dr Andrew C S Koh
Description:
Acts is a sequel to the gospel of Luke, written by Luke between 70-90 AD, in Rome. This is a historical narrative of the first-century Christian church from 33 to 60 AD. It is an action-packed, fast-moving, Hollywood-style narrative on the adventures of Peter, Paul and others.
Reviews:
This is an educational journey in the Book of Acts as only Dr. Koh can so brilliantly explain. A good book, Rowan E Creech, Bookbub and Goodreads, 5 out of 5 stars
A very informative read about the travels of Peter and Paul, two Apostles who were a great influence on Christian teachings. Those amazing miracles and sermons help us to think differently about our lives. Very inspiring book. Beautiful prayers accompany each chapter. I am on the ARC team. I leave an honest review. I recommend this book to other readers, J Sharmani, Amazon, 5 out of 5 stars
What an excellent novel to use as a guide for a weekly Bible Study Group. Many of us do not know that Acts is a sequel to the gospel of Luke. It is written by Luke somewhere between 70-90 AD. Luke looks back on the world of the first-century Christian church. Take a chance to step out of our tightly conservative view of the church and follow along with Luke, Peter, Paul, and others as they journey through the world of the first Jewish Christian believers. We travel with the first believers from Jerusalem to Samaria all the way to Rome. This book will introduce the reader to the sermons and testimonies of Peter and Paul. You will come across many “firsts” in Acts, e.g., the birth of the first-century Christian church, the first miracle, the first sermon, the first Christian martyr, the first Christian burial, the first Gentile convert, the first European Christian convert, etc. This is the time of the first hundred years of our heritage. What a joy for the reader. I received this novel from StoryOrigin. This is my true and honest review, Pamela Anne Reiner, Bookbub, 5 out of 5 stars

The Most Wonderful Lie Of The Year : Lisa McKendrick
One lonely musician, two rival cousins, leads to three nights of festive fun!
When the handsome vice principal of Christmas High School stops to listen to Sorina perform on the street, she expects him to leave a tip, not accuse her of being a fake.
Dougal Fletcher is on to her scam–pretending to play while the amp does the work, and it’s not appreciated in Christmas, the most Christmassy town on Earth! (Bethlehem excluded.)
However, more offensive than Dougal’s accusation is his returning moments later to ask Sorina to be his date for the evening…his fake date, to be precise.
For Sorina it’s a no, until Dougal confesses that he’s in love with local weather girl, Gayle Martinez, and can’t bear the thought of showing up at Merry and Bright—the hottest Christmas party in town–alone when he knows Gayle will be there with a date. And, according to Dougal, the only difference between faking the violin and faking to be his date is that the second gig pays better.
With nothing to look forward to but a quiet Christmas away from family, Sorina agrees to be Dougal’s date, a decision which sets her on a Christmastime adventure involving a castle, lavish parties, a four-hundred-year-old violin, and Andre Fletcher, a brooding security director responsible for protecting the violin. . .and stealing her heart.
Christmas magic is in the air making anything seem possible, even finding true love. But can Sorina count on Andre when she needs him most?
Curl up with this wildly funny page-turner about Christmas, the joys of the season, and the things that matter most.

Supreme Errors in Judgment : Edward D’Felio
Within the last year, the Supreme Court has once again come under scrunty, and justifiably so as will be demonstrated throughout this booklet. The overturning of Roe v. Wade exemplified to sentiments of the public. In response to the publics outcry, Chief Justice John Roberts expressed his concerns regarding the public’s perception of the Court’s legitimacy, while nine months earlier Justice Amy Coney Barrett attempted to convince the nation that the court is not partisan. Contrarily to their beliefs, the Supreme Court has always had a history of partisanship, corruption, misinformation, and/or failing to follow precedent. Such a claim is supported by thorough research, and deductive and inductive reasoning as will be illustrated within. For example, it started in 1801 with the rivalry between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, which culminated in the Supreme Court establishing judicial review via Marbury v. Madison. In addition, the focus is on two additional areas where Supreme Court decisions have jeopardized the integrity of the Court itself, as well as our democratic republic: equating money to speech and corporations to people. Ironically, the rationale for overturning Roe v. Wade is identical to revisiting, and overturning Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad, First National Bank of Boston v. Bellotti and Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission as they pertain to corporations being people.

The Con That Became The Constitution
The Con that Became the Constitution is a critical analysis of eight specific areas of the U.S. Constitution that are currently impacting the Republic. The book analyzes Constitutional concerns and issues from recorded word starting with the Philadelphia Convention of 1787 to the present day from a provocative, yet enlightening perspective.
The Founding Fathers modeled the Constitution after the Roman Republic. During the drafting and ratifying process, they were aware of what contributed to the fall of Rome. Even though their knowledge of the history of Rome was virtuous, they displayed an arrogance in ignoring it.
Arrogant ignorance is a concept not often associated with the Founding Fathers. Throughout the ratification process, and to present day, arrogant ignorance has established a permanent residence in Congress and the Supreme Court. Arrogant ignorance is a natural phenomenon of the frailties of humankind with the capability of destroying civilizations.
Given the current state of the Republic, “We the people” have no one to blame but ourselves. “We” have become complacent and dependent on people who have made a career out of rhetoric and (broken) promises. The Revolutionary War was fought to rid itself of an aristocratic form of government, yet the current system merely replaced one set of nobility with another. A greater understanding of the past is the first step towards restoring the Republic.
