"‘I have 600 cookbooks, but this is the most superb cookbook I have ever cooked from. No other cookbook even comes close to it! We consider “The Bible of Cookbooks” to be Woman’s Home Companion Cookbook, printed in 1942. We think of Cajun Cooking as “The New Testament.”’ - Carroll Conques, Lafayette, Louisiana

| Title: Dying In God's Hands |
| By (author): Camille Pavy Claibourne |
| ISBN10-13: 0925417645 : 9780925417640 |
| Dying In God's Hands is a book about dying and death, and about what we learn from the terminally ill. It is intended to provide fresh insights into the hearts and minds of the dying and to provide solace and comfort to people who are dealing with the loss of a loved one, whether in the immediate future or in the recent past. Part I is based on interviews with 12 Hospice patients in which they share their hopes, strengths, anxieties, frustrations and needs. "Dying people see life with clarity". They have the unique ability of enjoying each moment as if it were their last," the author writes in the introduction. She adds that "the sacredness of life" is among the profound lessons we learn from the dying. Several interviews provide testimony that a deep and abiding faith in God is the greatest strength of those facing imminent death. While exploring and illuminating the natural process of dying, the author consequently touches on the outer edges of the supernatural. The reader can practically feel the patients longing for reunion with God the universal and ultimate aspiration of the soul. Part II of the book discusses 8 topics that represent shared bonds and experiences common denominators of those who are terminally ill. Part III features prayers and inspirational writings rooted in various religious traditions: Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Bah and non-denominational. |

| ISBN10-13: 1735264148 : 9781735264141 |

It includes chapters on each of the five National Championships won under his direction, beginning in 1991; it reveals his secrets to training great pitchers who later pitched in the Major League; and it shows how he embraced and used "The Power of Positive Thinking" throughout his career. The book is based in part on personal observations by the author, a veteran sportswriter, and numerous interviews with Skip's former players, colleagues and family members. |

| Title: Freedom from Fear |
| By (author): Francis Vanderwall |
| ISBN10-13: 0925417564 : 9780925417565 |
| Everyone at one time or another feels fear, guilt, worry and shame. But when these emotions get out of control they can enslave a person, literally taking over his or her life. In this hardcover book, the author suggests that the way out of this bondage is prayer, meditation and faith in God and His promise of salvation. The author points to the parables in the Gospels as Jesus antidote to fears of various kinds, citing the parables of the prodigal son, the good Samaritan, and the widow and the judge. Exercises at the end of each chapter help make the books lessons all the more real and useful. |
