Pinstripe Defection
USA Today says about Pinstripe Defection, "Facing the New York Yankees on the field is one thing, but dealing with the powerful franchise in the international arena and legal proceedings can be just as formidable - and eye-opening." A season of baseball can be made or broken by the right players, so with billions of dollars a year flowing through the world of professional baseball, it's easy to see why scouts who discover the next star player might bend a few rules. It's easy to see, too, why a team might make promises it might not keep in order to sign a talented young player, recently defected from Cuba. International baseball scouting can sometimes seem like the back room of a prohibition-era speakeasy -- dark, daunting and, often times, corrupt. This world was revealed to Jason Browning, a twenty-nine-year-old Arkansas attorney during his five year battle with one of the most powerful sports franchises in the world, the New York Yankees. Along the way, the attorney uncovered evidence of other under-the-table dealings.

The Church's One Foundation
Handel Lloyd Andrews was born in Georgetown, British Guiana, the eldest of three children of Lloyd Joseph Augustus Andrews and Ruth Maude Andrews. He started following Jesus from an early age and was a roadside preacher in his early teens. He is a devout, bible-believing Christian and a keen student of bible history and Christian theology. As a student of Logic, Ancient philosophy and Ethics, he recognizes that his faith in God cannot be verified, since faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Like Lord Tennyson, he cries, Strong Son of God, immortal Love, Whom we, that have not seen thy face, By faith, and faith alone, embrace, Believing where we cannot p...

More Than Clay
We are jars of clay. Yes. We are made from the dirt and dull in color: jars of clay. On the outside, we appear pretty simple and ordinary. But inside, deep in the core of who we are, shines something else. God tells us that "in Christ" our clay-ness is no longer the extent of who we are. He says that inside of us is something that makes us more than just a simple jar; something that is truly extraordinary. But if you are like me, then you, too, are hit with an obstacle. No matter how often we are told of our new life in Christ, there seems to be a part of us that continually doubts and questions it. No matter how many years are tacked onto our spiritual life, there seems to be something--or ...
Element
If you have ever had late night, profound conversations about the existence of the supernatural or debates over organized religion, this book is for you. Element is a collection of short stories on a wide variety of subjects. It is a product of the author's continual struggle to comprehend issues which may have no rational explanation. From the basic mystery of the human mind to the existence of a higher being, the subject material is wrapped into tantalizing stories that will leave you wanting more. The lighter side of Element cleverly utilizes wit to reveal the underlying human spirit. Element contains stories on subjects ranging from murder mystery to the supernatural to origins of the Big Bang theory. But all of the stories touch on a deep level of the human psyche. Some of the stories may be somewhat controversial but all will move you to reach deeper for a better understanding of fundamental human (and non-human) qualities. As the title suggests, Element consists of many small components, but when placed together, form an entirely independent creation.
