The 39 Stripes
The 39 Stipes is a rich balance of scholarship, theology, historical accuracy, and practical application for the Saint and Sinner. Dr. Teal's rich dynamic style of vivid word pictures stands between two worlds, i.e, the times of Jesus when He literally, walked, warred, and worked on behalf of all mankind and our contemporary age. After reading The 39 Stripes, the reader will leave with an indelible impression of how Jesus loved, suffered, and sacrificed His life so that we may live in this life and the life to come. The author graphically styles the visitation of Jesus Christ to planet Earth in the form of a human. The anointed pen of Bishop Sean F. Teal scripts an intellectual, intelligent, and inspirational expose' of Jesus' journey to The Cross not only on the pages of this book but also on the pages of the lives of those who would dare read this wondrous work with an open mind and heart.

No Lack of Courage
No Lack of Courage is the story of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s Operation Medusa, the largely Canadian action in Afghanistan from 1 to 17 September 2006, to dislodge a heavily entrenched Taliban force in the Pashmul district of Afghanistans Kandahar Province. At stake, according to senior Afghan politicians and NATO military commanders, was nothing less than the very existence of the reconstituted state of Afghanistan, as well as the NATO alliance itself. In a bitterly fought conflict that lasted more than two weeks, Canadian, Afghan, and Coalition troops defeated the dug-in enemy forces and chased them from the Pashmul area. In the end, the brunt of the fighting fell on the Canadians, and the operation that saved Afghanistan exacted a great cost. However, the battle also demonstrated that Canada had shed its peacekeeping mythology and was once more ready to commit troops deliberately to combat. Moreover, it revealed yet again that Canadian soldiers have no lack of courage.
Tales of the Credit Card Age
Featuring the short stories “Worth Liking,” “Like the Buddhas of Bamiyan,” and “So Clothes the Grass” plus five more, Tales of the Credit Card Age presents contemporary tales of debt and freedom, aspiration and a lack of direction, tales of travel and Internet lurking. Credit Card Age is e-fiction for the Facebook era, containing single-sitting-sized contemporary stories. In the lead story, “Worth Liking,” we see a young man come out of the Facebook woodwork to like something worthwhile, and although it is an almost trivial act, it stands for the culmination of a long history between a boy and a girl. Tales of the Credit Card Age brings you the experiences of an alcohol-soaked and ocean-side marriage of youths on the island of Maui, a typical evening in a group home for mentally disabled adults, a campfire with a dreamy-eyed young writer, and an early-morning drive among the Joshua trees of the high Mojave desert. Stories in this collection originally appeared in The Owen Wister Review, Open Window Review, and Laramie’s indie periodical, News From Nowhere.

Fortune Favours the Brave
Many Canadians see the role their country's military plays in Afghanistan as an anomaly. However, this assumption is far from the truth. As U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has commented, "Canadians are fierce fighters." Fortune Favours the Brave certainly proves this point in a collection of essays that showcases the fighting spirit and courage of Canada's military. Daring actions featured in the book include the intrepid assault on the Fortress of Louisbourg and the cat-and-mouse struggle between Canadian partisans and Rogers's Rangers in the Seven Years' War in the 1750s; the seesaw battle for the Niagara frontier in the War of 1812; an innovative trench raid in the First World War; the valiant parachute assault to penetrate the Third Reich in the Second World War; the infamous battle at Kap'yong in the Korean War; covert submarine operations during the Cold War; the Medak Pocket clash in Croatia in the early 1990s; and Operation Medusa in Afghanistan.
