  • QuickBooks for Churches and Other Religious Organizations

    Lisa London

    Paperback (Deep River Publishing, Nov. 27, 2013)
    Bookkeeping for churches can be quite different than for-profit businesses, and the other guides available cover either QuickBooks or church accounting, not both. Lisa London, The Accountant Beside You, walks you through QuickBooks for your church from start to finish, always with examples, terminology, and understanding of what a busy church administrator needs to know in a clear, concise style. With her friendly easy-to-understand style and illustrative screenshots, Lisa guides new QuickBooks users every step of the way, while her tips for how to make QuickBooks work better for churches provides new insight and procedures for even the experienced bookkeeper. Not only does she step you through how to set up QuickBooks and utilize it more efficiently for your house of worship, but she also discusses everything you need to know to implement controls and procedures to ensure that your church's money is always protected. QuickBooks for Churches covers PC versions of QuickBooks from 2012 forward and even includes what’s new in the 2014 version. Lisa offers sound accounting procedures for both large and small houses of worship, for bookkeepers with years of experience as well as those just starting out. Let The Accountant Beside You take one more worry off your crowded to-do list.
  • Esther

    Norah Lofts

    (Tree of Life Publishing, July 5, 2012)
    Ataxerxes, King of Persia needed a wife. This warrior lord was so powerful that he could make his choice from all his Empire. He picked the one girl who would have given anything to have been passed over, a Jewish scholar, Esther, from the back streets of his capital, Shushan. To a King bored by the chattering of women wreathed in musky scents, this changeling was a breath of fresh air. But the new Queen of Persia was lost in a world of protocol and soon lost her husband's favour. Worse, she had to hide her faith and deny her origins for Haman, the King's favourite, was an Amelekite, an ancient enemy of the Jews, and determined to have revenge. Esther's only hope to avert a holocaust was to risk her own life and go, uninvited, before a King who had already disposed of one unpopular wife. Norah Lofts' Esther, first published in 1951, is a magical re-telling of the Old Testament Book of Esther, the story behind the Jewish festival of Purim.
  • UNCLE HITLER by Christopher Varaste: Hitler at Home. Dysfunction. Abuse. Scandal. Incest. Suicide

    Christopher Varaste

    language (River Styx Publishing, March 15, 2016)
    The second he spots Adolf Hitler at an art reception, 18-year-old Leo Gorey determines to ingratiate himself to Germany’s new Chancellor.

Trapped in a house of horrors with Hitler’s crazed entourage, Leo’s own past comes to haunt him. The only person who can save Leo is Willy Hitler, the FĂŒhrer’s decadent British nephew. Willy blackmails the FĂŒhrer with a deviant sexual secret that history has never dared to reveal—until now.UNCLE HITLER is partially based on William Patrick Hitler’s factual account of life in Nazi Germany, including the corrupt labor camps for German women to perpetuate the Aryan race, the divide between macho and feminine homosexuals, Hitler's genius at hiding his and his family's mental illness and how that psychosis permeated those who coveted his attention for social status and monetary gain--a popularity contest with unfathomable consequences.
