With the passion, erudition, and irrepressible wit that have become his signature, Eric Metaxas's REVOLUTION: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World brings the epic of America's birth to life so fully that you will feel you are a part of the story, which is precisely the point. By turns deeply moving, gripping, and spectacularly entertaining, these are the stories every American must know, including some of history's noblest heroes-and some despicable villains.REVOLUTION also touches on the role that sacrifice, character, and faith played in the great struggle for "the Sacred Cause" of liberty.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   Can a skunk and a raccoon get stuck together?  You know!  I saw it on TV, should we believe it?  Plus…why are so many morning radio teams checking out of the business?   I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to thro...

When I entered this forest in 1992 my heart wasn't focused on the present. The calling was to put myself in 2040. How often do we put ourselves in a position of exploration and never take the time to see what the invisible visionaries put into play decades before your arrival? Can you spot the fingerprint of one who foresaw longevity?

What does love look like in life's later chapters? In this tender, mischievous new collection of poetry, Zack Rogow answers with the hard-won wisdom of a man newly single in his senior years. “After being with the same person for over three decades, I found my life upside down, dating again after the age of 65,” says Rogow, a teacher, playwright, poet, and translator. “I went on over 75 first dates and tried every-which-way to meet someone that I could feel a loving connection with.

I hope to loca...

But WERE “all men created equal”? What are “unalienable rights”? And how did these men come to write this document anyway?
History and civi...
