For years, I didn't know what to do with my poems so I write them in tablets and put them in my closet. They didn't stay there for long. I took one to Sunday school one day, and that is how it took off. I called a local radio station to read poem's segment. After I read a poem on air, the DJ invited me to come to a Saturday morning prayer breakfast. I went to the library and the local bookstore and got three hundred addresses. I wrote to them and receive responses from some of them that were very encouraging and uplifting. A few of them that answered me was Queen Elizabeth, Princess Diana, President Obama, Bill Cosby, Maya Angelou, the president of Amtrak, and Pastor John Hagee. To be at this point in my life is amazing. I pray you enjoy these poems. May they encourage your heart.

SAVE ME Nobody could have foreseen what would happen the day that Rose McKenna volunteers in the cafeteria of her daughter's elementary school.

Melly has been targeted by the mean girl at their new school and gets bullied every day, placing Rose in a no-win position familiar to parents everywhere.

When the bully starts to tease Melly yet again, Rose is about to leap into action—but right then, the unthinkable happens. Rose finds herself in a nightmare, faced with an emergency decision that no mother should ever have to make. Would she sacrifice another mother's child to save her own?

Fifteen-year-old Mia is not exactly thrilled when she gets the news that her parents are shipping her off to boarding school. It's not like she did anything that bad -- all she did was wreck her dad's car and max out her step mum's credit cards. So, off she goes, from Chicago to Bard Academy, an exclusive prep school that treats troubled teenagers with a healthy dose of higher learning and old-fashioned discipline. But all is not what it seems at this educational institute, and Mia and her classmates soon discover that the teachers are actually ghosts, stuck in limbo, some of them famous authors who died before their time, including Virginia Woolf, Ernest Hemingway, and Charlotte Bronte. And what's even more disturbing is that not all the ghosts have good intentions. Mia and her friends must stop one evil instructor's plan to bring down the school -- and the entire student body with it.

In If It Hurts, It Isn't Love, author Chuck Spezzano finds truth in simple insights: What I think I need is what I am called to give. Depression is the fear that something new will leave me. When someone gets angry at me, there is a lesson for me to learn. Jealousy is a birthing place. These principles show how to look afresh at one's most important relationships, in a way that heals pain and brings love and forgiveness. After each principle, the author gives brief exercises that nudge readers further, prompting them to absorb the insights even more deeply.

Taken from the original manuscript for the course, the only editing that has been done to this great spiritual classic has been to correct occasional typographic and spelling errors and to render capitalization and punctuation consistent.
