Pug Parables

Does God speak to us through normal, everyday events? Does He still teach us through the use of parables, like Jesus did when he regaled his listeners with stories of the sower, the mustard seed, the hidden treasure and the good Samaritan? Yes, He does; and “Pug Parables” is just such an account. A collection of short, devotional-style stories based on the life of a little dog named Sheba, it is sure to warm your heart.

I’m Still Standing

The revised and updated edition of “I’m Still Standing” includes both the original compilation of essays about the author’s battle with breast cancer in 2006, and an addendum to each that is sub-titled “2020 Hindsight”. The intervening years, including the challenges of Covid-19, are discussed. As a RN and former hospice nurse, she fully understands the potentially serious outcomes of diseases such as cancer and Covid-19 that may range from complete recovery to a slow-and-painful death. This is a testimony of God’s sufficiency throughout that terrible year of suffering in 2006, as well as during the intervening years. It illustrates how faith truly does overcome fear, delivering peace in the worst of times. Prayerfully, her experiences will encourage others, and bolster their faith in the God who is able to do far more than we even ask.

Richard’s Story

Richard’s Story is a labor of love, intended to honor the man who was (or I should say, is!) my dad. It is a compilation of memories, my own as well as those of other members of our family: a compilation that will, I hope, stir up lots of other memories for those who knew him. I believe it will cause us to smile, to laugh—and yes—perhaps to shed a tear or two. And for all who read Richard’s Story, my prayer is the same as his would have been—that through his life they will see Jesus. (Free in the eBook edition)

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 1: Investigating Dimensions of Healing

Long ago, the Lord revealed the secret of receiving His revelation—it did not come to me directly, but was always developed in the context of other believers, and I never receive full understanding without consulting others. It is in such unity that new revelation is unpacked and understood; it is our journey together that brings enlightenment to the wisdom of the Lord; and it is for this reason that this series will be co-authored with others.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 3: Gates, Doors, and the Grid

Addressing the religious leaders of His day, Jesus said, “For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; foryou neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.” He also taught us to petition our Father, “… Unwilling to follow the poor example of those scribes and Pharisees, we choose to explore heavenly places through the leadership of the Holy Spirit; taking back what has been given away to the enemy, and securing victory in the heavens. This third book in the Exploring Heavenly Places series examines the nature of these realms as a dimensional system, focusing mostly on the grid, doors and gates. The evidence presented is clear that when His will is done there, our physical existence here is the beneficiary of positive change.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 4: Power in the Heavenly Places

Throughout scripture we find one account after another of God’s power, and if we stop to consider the magnitude of that power it’s mind-boggling. We often read such statements as, the voice of the Lord is powerful; He rules by His power forever; by His power He brought in the south wind; Who knows the power of Your anger; Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; All Your works shall praise You, O Lord…And talk of Your power. All of His works shall praise Him—wow!!! That’s big.

God’s handiwork is evident everywhere we look, and the Bible is full of golden nuggets of truth that we may not have recognized because our everyday focus is usually on what we see right in front of us. The manifestations of God’s power hint of the glorious eternity that awaits those who are His; and while there is still much to understand, we begin to learn to recognize and access His power throughout the dimensions in Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 4, Power in the Heavenly Places.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 5: The Power of God, on Earth as it is in Heaven

The Exploring Heavenly Places series thus far has spoken of experiences occurring through discernment in dimensions existing beyond our normal everyday perception in seemingly far-away places. However, both the dimensional heavenly places and the Power of God are also very close at hand. We frequently consider the Lord’s Prayer, but how often do we stop and consider the magnitude of the fact that His kingdom is already here and dwells within us? It’s so easy to simply assume that “on earth as it is in heaven” is future tense; for we know it will become evident in the millennial kingdom when Jesus literally returns to rule and reign from His throne in Jerusalem. We must change our focus so that we do not miss the current reality of The Power of God, on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 7: Discernment Encyclopedia for God’s Spiritual Creation

We write of Exploring Heavenly Places, but what does that actually mean? To explore is to investigate, study, or analyze; to travel in or through an unfamiliar country or area in order to learn about or familiarize oneself with it; to search for resources; to inquire into or discuss an issue in detail, examining or evaluating options or possibilities; and to examine by touch. By default, exploration has to do with searching out the unknown, and what can be more unfamiliar from our physical perspective than the mysteries of God that exist in His heavenly places?

Our exploration of heavenly places is through discernment, which is knowledge gained through the use of our five senses; but again, what does that mean? Since many may be new to the concept of discerning that which we do not see, this encyclopedic reference has been developed to help people learn to define and discern God’s astounding, unseen creation.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 8: Dreamspeak

Why would a book about Dreamspeak be included in a series about heavenly places? The answer is simple, yet complex. Dreams and visions occur outside of the four dimensions to which we are accustomed, and in them we get a taste of what it is like not to be bound by time and space; in them we have experiences that are seemingly impossible from an earthly perspective; in them we are allowed opportunities to see into the invisible spiritual realms.

In a dream world, nothing is impossible and we may find ourselves traveling though time, walking on water, breathing under water, flying though the air in a car, or floating thorough walls. Images may morph from one thing into another; or we may experience or view several scenes at once, multitasking in ways that far exceed our physical capabilities. Familiar laws of physics do not apply as gravity disappears, animals speak, inanimate objects dissolve, and we pass through star gates.

This book is about the author’s personal journey into dream interpretation. It’s much more of a this-is-how-God-does-it-with-me account than a one-size-fits-all instruction manual, which hopefully will encourage others to venture out into the heavenly realms of dream exploration.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 9: Travel Guide to the Width, Length, Depth and Height

As we explore the heavenly places, the Holy Spirit is always our guide or, in a sense, our spiritual travel agent. In this volume, our exotic destinations are the width, length, depth and height of which the Apostle Paul wrote in the book of Ephesians. The enemy is adept at producing corrupt imitations of God’s perfect creation and these realms are no exception, but the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord always outweighs the worst destruction of evil. Therefore, we examine both the righteous and unrighteous versions, sharing revelatory insights from the Lord regarding how to escape from the ungodly places and dwell in the righteous width, length, depth and height where we will enjoy the abundant blessings of God.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 10: A Travelogue of Heavenly Journeys

This travelogue illuminates some of the places and experiences encountered by the authors and others associated with the ministry of Aslan’s Place.It is our hope that this volume will act as an appetizer to what is possible as God takes you on your own journeys!

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 12: The Mystery of the Ancient Paths

Four little words tend to dominate our lives—want, need, lack and expect; and fear lies at their root. Sadly, instead of seeking God first and traveling along His righteous pathways, we often tend to focus mainly on everyday stuff. As a result, we wander helplessly around in the hubbub of life, seeking a sense of peace and rest that is difficult to find.Key to overcoming the ravenous appetite of those worldly expectations is a biblical understanding of what they should be, as opposed to what they often are. We also need insights regarding how our warped perceptions of want, need, lack and expect came to be in the first place. This volume of Exploring Heavenly Places: The Mystery of the Ancient Paths is meant to further equip God’s people to persevere and endure within a worldly system that wants nothing more than to snuff out Christianity. Suggestions are offered that can lead to developing new expectations and a righteous hope for the future.

Exploring Heavenly Places, Volume 13: Equipped for Harvest

God loves to collaborate with His people, most of whom would heartily agree with the famous sentiment of the Lord’s Prayer, “Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it’s in Heaven.” As we long for His Kingdom and the return of Jesus, we also await the reaping of His harvest.

With that in mind, one might think that the focus of a book subtitled Equipped for Harvest would be evangelism; but it’s not. Instead, three basic themes interwoven with one foundational truth are explored; all of which are integral to coming alongside of God in His harvest season.

Question: What do grace, sound, and battle have in common?
Answer: Read the book and find out!
