Wouldn't you just kill for a five-star, fantasy vacation filled with excitement, elbow rubbing with "The Beautiful People", and a chance at fame and fortune? Would you do it to make all your dreams come true? Talk show host Ga'Norea Jackson did and she became an overnight sensation. Now, in the National Lottery Association's third winning season of combining two of the nation's favorite pastimes, playing the lottery and watching executions, Peter James finally gets his chance. All he has to do is pull the lever. How hard can that be? Follow Peter behind the scenes for one week as he gets caught up in media frenzy, decides which former death row inmate (now a "Lottery Candidate") to execute on the show, and falls for his chauffeur, Allison Davies, whose secret past with one of the candidates jumps into the spotlight. Watch as Peter becomes an unwitting pawn to his idol Hank Maxwell, the host of the NLA's show, who will use anyone he can in his unsavory schemes for money, power, and ratings. And don't forget to breathe as Peter wrestles his conscience to pull the lever on the spectacular live broadcast.
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power. –John Steinbeck Orphan Harsh makes it to the billionaire club with a burning vision, sheer intellect and the blessings of his political Godfather. The favours must now be paid back, through a huge Guru Dakshina. To honour his Master's wish, Harsh, with the help of his fellow IITians, sets out to create a never-seen-before governance technology that will change the face of democratic India. Everything is at stake: money, reputations, egos and morals. Even lives. Will they succumb to insatiable greed in the murky games of politics, backstabbing and subterfuge, or will they be redeemed by the “Ten Commandments” that once forged their ideals at college? If you thought that supreme technology and unalloyed power can bring lasting public good, or that e-governance and transparency can address the ills of our system, The Winner's Curse will force you to think again. For, ultimately, what's at stake is: YOU. The Winner's Curse: the turbulent voyage of talent and intellect in the morass of turpitude.
We all live in a fallen world. In the words of my grandmother, “IF IT AIN’T ONE THING, IT IS ANOTHER.” We are confronted with problems, pain, and persecution. We are also confronted with burdens and brokenness. These challenges sometimes cause us to feel down, disgusted, disenfranchised, and even depressed. This word is written to encourage people to look up and be a positive people. It is intended to encourage people to focus on the positive and not the negative. In the words of our forefathers, “Behind every dark cloud, the sun is still shining.” The people of God are a victorious people. We walk in victory. This collection of sermons is designed to help us to go THROUGH the not-so-good times to get to the good times. We go “through the valley and the shadow of death.” It is my hope and prayer that this collection will help you to build your faith and remind you of who we are. We are conquers!!! We walk in VICTORY!

When twelve-year-old Reece Winners parents buy a pub overlooking the stunning coastline of North Cornwall, his life appears perfect and probably would be, if it wasnt for the bullying he occasionally has to deal with.

He is befriended by Kara, a classmate who is carrying her own emotional baggage, following her fathers suicide three years previously. She offers Reece consolation and support, while helping him to face the tragedies that conspire to overwhelm him.
