The EarthKeeper - Undeveloping the Future
by Adam C. HallThe EarthKeeper is an inspiring story about a ruthless millionaire who woke up from his worldly life to become a steward of the planet in the sacred traditions of the Hopi, Mayan, and Incan cultures. This is a tale of high adventure, filled with tears and heartbreak, transcendence and triumph, fate and destiny, peace and love. One day, as Adam Hall was racing through life, he met a palm reader who spoke of separation. This one word triggered a series of questions about life, death, and his purpose. He began to think that if he could not realize his calling on Earth, then what's it all worth anyway? Was he to live fully or just bide his time until death? These questions exploded life as Adam knew it, propelling him on a quest that cost him his family and more. His work in real estate even dwindled drastically, as he was utterly through with the dog-eat-dog mentality of doing business. Eventually, he sought a new way as he lost his self-identity in the process, because who are you if you suddenly realize that key aspects of your life were based on illusions? The EarthKeeper turns the world on it head and opens the door to an entirely new perspective. In reading about Adam's quest, you'll accompany him on this journey as he travels the globe and discovers the ancient map of his soul. He shares the highs and lows as he traverses four roads of life: the physical, emotional, spiritual, and Divine. Along the way, he discovers the secrets of nature and all of life. You'll see firsthand how he courageously faces his own demons and takes responsibility for his former ruthlessness and misdeeds, slowly but surely finding an inner peace that's unmovable by outer events. You'll see how Adam, while working with shamans in Peru, receives a vision that wakes him up to his destiny: he's among those who assume the sacred duty of preserving and honoring our precious humanity, ultimately finding environmental redemption and vowing to foster planetary well-being.
The Ebb Tide
by Beverly LewisA Heartwarming Tale of Courage and Love from Amish Fiction's #1 AuthorWhen a well-to-do family asks Sallie Riehl to be their daughter's nanny for the summer at their Cape May, New Jersey, vacation home, she jumps at the chance to broaden her horizons beyond the Lancaster County Amish community where she grew up. Sallie has long dreamed of seeing more of the world, but her parents are reluctant for her to put off baptism yet another summer, and the timing is unfortunate for Perry Zook, who has renewed interest in courting her. Though she loves nannying, Sallie has free time on the weekends to enjoy the shore. It is there that she meets Kevin Kreider, a marine biology student who talks freely about all he's learning and asks about her interests, unlike most of the guys she grew up with. Time with Kevin is invigorating, and Sallie realizes she's never felt quite this alive around Perry. Then again, Kevin is Mennonite, not Amish. Sallie tries to brush aside her growing feelings for Kevin, but she fears what her parents would think about her new friendship. Just as concerning, however, is Sallie's realization that her time in Cape May is increasing her desire to see the world, challenging her plans for the future. Has she been too hasty with her promises, or will Sallie only find what her heart is longing for back home in Paradise Township?
