Have you ever had something happen to you that you couldn't explain? Maybe you just attributed it to coincidence. But what if it was more than a random chance; what if it was orchestrated by God? In this book, we invite you to read true stories of ordinary people and decide for yourself whether you think it was random chance or something else - Coincidence or God-Incidence. Regardless of your decision, these stories are meant to inspire, encourage, and uplift you.

Coincidence? Or God? You Decide is a collection of episodes the author's family and friends experienced. These stories take place in Mexico as well as the United States. In each story, you will find a fascinating and sometimes life-threatening situation, such as a nine-passenger, six-door Excursion traveling sixty miles an hour on the icy Arkansas River Bridge railing in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Read what happened to the nine fathers in this vehicle. Decide for yourself if God or luck was with them. Then, there is the girl whose foot was mangled in a packing plant accident, or the family who was marvelously saved when the train bridge over the San Rafael River collapsed and the center portion of the train they had been in, fell into the river. In this book you will meet a man who gave his home to a poor family; and a little boy who lost his father's best knife in a lake. His mother prayed, and moments later the boy's brother caught a fish with the knife in its mouth. Did that just happen? You decide. In the days before cell phones, see what happened to a fifteen-year-old boy stranded at Love's Truck Stop in Gallup, New Mexico, 700 miles from home. You will live through a tornado with the Hightower family in Neosho, Missouri, and shiver with Dofia Margarita sitting on her house top during a long night. You will bake with the Children's Christmas Project and learn how much they earned for the Huruma Orphanage in Kenya, Africa, and shout when a man gives Charlotte $500 for a basket of homemade bread. While swimming on the Baja California coast, you will struggle with Tim against a strong undercurrent that was dragging him out into the Pacific Ocean. Will Tim see his family again? Were the persons in danger accidentally saved, or did the power and love of God assist them? The author wants you to decide. Both blessings and difficulties will swirl around us as we walk through life. Romans 8:28 says, "We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose." Psalms 139:17 How precious are thy thoughts toward unto me, O God! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand."

After Jesus’s death, when the disciples were hiding in fear of arrest, they gathered to celebrate the feast of Pentecost, together with Jesus’s mother, Mary. What followed was an event that would change their lives and alter the course of Christianity forever. The Power of Pentecost, the Power in Our Hands presents the rich history of the Christian church and the many heresies that have plagued the faith, attempting to destroy it. It examines those who defended the faith in its early years and considers the great gift instituted at the Last Supper, the altar call of love. The study also explores Pentecost, an explosive event that awakened the disciples and allowed them to perform miracles, marking the start of a church that flourished despite persecution. Author Joe L. Caruana also shares testimony about the spiritual experiences that brough him back to the church with a new dynamism. This study reminds us of the truth about several important relevant subjects and seeks to reveal the factors that have made the Catholic Church great and enduring over the centuries.

His New York Times phenomenon The Prayer of Jabez changed how millions pray. Now Bruce Wilkinson wants to change what they do next. Anyone can do a good deed, but some good works can only happen by an act of God. Around the world these acts are called miracles–not that even religious people expect to see one any time soon. But what would happen if millions of ordinary people walked out each morning expecting God to deliver a miracle through them to a person in need? You Were Born for This starts with the dramatic premise that everyone at all times is in need of a miracle, and that God is ready to meet those needs supernaturally through ordinary people who are willing to learn the "protocol of heaven." In the straightforward, story-driven, highly motivating style for which he is known, Wilkinson describes how anyone can be a 'Delivery Guy' from heaven in such universally significant arenas of life as finances, practical help, relationships, purpose and spiritual growth. You Were Born for This will change how you see your world and show you what you can expect God to do through you to meet real needs. You will master seven simple tools of service, and come to say with confidence, "I want to deliver a supernatural gift from God to someone in need today–and I expect to!"
