Acknowledgements
I want to continue to acknowledge, my bride, Nancy, of 34 years. We renewed our vows on the 25th year with silver Jesus rings. We felt that we were married to Jesus first before we are married to each other. Nancy is such a blessing being such a giving and loving people-person and truly the love of my life. She agrees with me that Sewanee is the most appropriate and beautiful place to center a story and provide a holy sanctuary for everyone including the children.
Hunter my 20-year-old son is my best fan, some call my clone, and in 2011 works for the FedEx Corporation. He has that perfect writer’s heart already writing and not following the pack. He makes his own decisions while not being afraid to spend time by himself without distractions—truly topnotch writer traits.
I want to thank Mike Bushilla, owner of MGB Press, who has given me the opportunity to edit and format some of the best Christian books I have ever read as well a providing me with excellent publishing services.
I also want to give credit to my parents when alive for all their encouragement for my writing adventures. My mother helped with her initial, rough-draft editing and gave me my love for writing and reading. My father was the quiet one who entertained himself with his active imagination. Like Father like son. That’s my habit. Thanks, Dad.
Finally, I want to thank Shelly Castle for her wonderful cover artwork and for capturing the true children of the sanctuary: another homerun for Shelly.

Preface
In these times, we should be more careful how we live our believer's walk. Some might say, "It is because Christ is returning at any moment." Yes, that should do it. It also may be that until He comes, things will get very bad. Is our faith also ready for that too? Regardless of when we believe the Lord is returning, we are all players in the most dramatic play ever written—The End-Time Play. In these end times, our actions can determine whether we live or die—eternally and now.
Writing this series has been a wonderful adventure with the Holy Spirit. I refuse to use bad language, but my only luxury in fiction is the use of my own imagination. I hope my stretching of it, my imagination, doesn't offend anyone. It seems a place I can go, as can the reader and a writer, which is safe when God is there. The inclusion of angel war and those things that take place in warfare: violence, blood, sweat, and tears are present and accounted for. We can’t have warfare without them. Prepare yourself.
I seek to use romantic rather than other ways to describe relationships. I want anyone to be able to read this and not be offended and/or educated outside the will of God. I want readers to understand romance as a beautiful, tender, and playful love between others. These are God's books because they are about our Lord and biblical things; and I refuse to spoil them with trash. However, I want to talk about romance and love in ways that draw us closer to Jesus. For, remember, if we haven't been intimate with Jesus, we can't be truly intimate with others.
Enjoy the series and learn to let God light up your imagination and take you to Godly wonderful places of peace and safety.
Oh! If you like even one of these books,
you'll love all of them.
