Introduction to the Bible
This profusely illustrated book is doubly valuable! It introduces the reader to both the content of the Bible and to the life, faith, and history of ancient Israel, early Judasim, and early Christianity.

Abanda
This semi-autobiographical novel is set in a small, rural Alabama community during the height of World War II. At that time, the modern Civil Rights Movement was scarcely in its infancy. The main characters are two ten-year-old sons of sharecroppers--one black and one white. Amid the difficulties, deprivations, and disadvantages resulting from living on the bottom rungs of the economic ladder, they share a friendship that carries them through tough times and enriches their lives with joy. A terrible sequence of events threatens that friendship and rocks their world.
If You Don't Like the Possum, Enjoy the Sweet Potatoes
In short, direct prose, John Hayes admonishes us to pay attention to the ready wisdom available in the metaphors of everyday life. Drawn from his studies, his childhood, and anywhere else Hayes could discover lessons for us all, this volume combines humor, philosophy, and traditional and practical wisdom. Both entertaining and thought-provoking, If You Don't Like the Possum???????????? provides new perspectives on old issues and perennial problems from dealing with failure, juggling the multiple personas with all carry with us, and learning from our mistakes, to the dangers of certitude, the consequences of burning bridges, and the complexity of being alone and yet in community. Whether picking cotton or plumbing the Bible, Hayes finds kernels of enlightenment as well as laughter in the myriad experiences of a rich life.
