NEW YORK—September 24, 2019—Morgan James’s new release, El Paso Sunrise, by Louis Bodnar, is an intense psychological and timely political thriller that comments on the chaotic and addictive nature of modern society. Retired lawyer Louis Bodnar depicts the corruption of North American politics and the outside threats to its national security within a story that foreshadows a coming Second American Civil War. El Paso Sunrise is the first of two stand-alone novels that weave together a tale of love, passion, obsession, intense hate, pure evil, violence, and horror, all brought keenly alive against the panorama of the radical transformation of America.

Within the pages of El Paso Sunrise, Bodnar describes a dystopian future in which the United States Government is shifting from a Constitutional Republic to a Marxist Dictatorship in an impending Second American Civil War. The story focuses on the life of Steven Vandorol, a lawyer leading the Texas prosecution of federal government corruption, and who is being hunted by a terrorist assassination squad. Steven’s journey brought him from Washington D.C., where he found himself embroiled in evil, corruption, sexual obsession, and addiction before confronting his own demons to find peace and serenity in El Paso.

Louis Bodnar portrays a future transformed by leftist progressives, Islamist radicals, ISIL, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the spreading malignancy of a worldwide Islamist Muslim Caliphate. Bodnar writes a compelling story of pain, crisis, survival and transformation that draws dark conclusions regarding our current political state and culture. While El Paso Sunrise is a novel about evil in this world, it is also a timeless love story about goodness, faith, grace, and friendship, blossoming during a national emergency—a call to the world to remember what truly matters.

Bustos, guides those who are morbidly obese to make necessary changes to live full and healthy lives. As someone who has personally struggled with obesity, Jacob F.

NEW YORK—September 17, 2019—Morgan James’s new release, Meant to Live: Living in Light of the Good News, by Nancy Hicks, takes an honest look at the Christian Church in America today. Nancy Hicks is determined to share the good news of Christ, but as a minister and church-attendee, she is able to recognize many trends in today’s Christian circles that don’t embody biblical principles. Meant to Live unpacks how Christians can truly live in the power and glory of the Gospel message and celebrate God’s glory within themselves and the Church.

Inspirational communicator Nancy Hicks describes four types of Christians who allow their personal convictions or past life events to define their lives, and comments on the type of testimony those Christians are providing to others. Hicks discusses how damaging it is for a Christian’s life to be defined by sin, either through a mindset of acceptance or self-castigation, and how difficult it is to build genuine relationships with those who are more legalistic and driven to be perfectionists. Hicks is hopeful that Meant to Live will provide a calling to all people, but especially those already attending church, to change their behavior in the face of God’s truth.

Meant to Live offers a vision on humanity’s calling and a way to live a genuine life gloriously following the Gospel. Nancy Hicks’ fresh point of view and conversational style combines personal stories with biblical wisdom and practical discussion questions, making each chapter easy to read and share in Christian small-groups and bible studies. Hicks includes a distinct view of humanity’s glory as seen in the Bible, an honest assessment of self, a practical guide to living in light of the Gospel, and an inspired and energized focus on the core calling in Christians’ lives.

NEW YORK—September 10, 2019—Morgan James’s new release, With Her Last Breath: A Tale of Suicide and the Hope of Heaven, by Barbara M. Roberts, provides words of hope for anyone struggling with thoughts of suicide and for any family members reeling from the loss of a loved one. Barbara M. Roberts knows the pervasive impact of suicide personally, after her niece, Kathy, took her own life. With Her Last Breath depicts Roberts’ search for answers in Kathy’s handwritten journal, left for family members following her suicide.

Prior to the loss of her niece, Barbara M. Roberts could not have imagined that someone in her own family would take their life. However, after reading through the pages of her niece’s journal, Roberts grew to understand the struggle of a fellow believer wrestling with suicidal thoughts. Kathy’s journal not only details the act itself, but it describes the reasons behind her suicide: why she could not stay on Earth one more day, why she was looking forward instead to her hope of Heaven.

Each chapter of With Her Last Breath is tied to a page in Kathy’s journal, intertwining the pages with stories of others and tools to help those who are suicidal as well as their loved ones. Roberts includes what warning signs to watch for, how to care for someone who is struggling, and where to turn in a crisis. With Her Last Breath weaves reminders of God’s love and faithfulness throughout its pages, to help anyone facing the threat of suicide, so that they may make sense out of their own suffering and emerge with a vision of God’s hope for their lives.
