10.0 out of 10.0 stars

Wow, I Want What They Have: Sanctified Marriage: Heavens Above “For Better or Worse” written by Pastor K. Bruce Brown is a book that encompasses marriage, yet speaks of connecting to God as our Abba Father first. Offering great insight to those who would seek to come up higher in marriage, and all of their relationships! 

Pastor K. Bruce Brown presents a book that builds faith, reveals the spiritual realm, coining the phrase, “Earth Life Bias” (ELB), and offers readers instruction on how to build a solid foundation in Christ, while increasing in faith, love, joy, and peace as a citizen of Heaven. He welcomes all to the family of God while offering a new perspective approach to living the triumphant plan God has for your life here on Earth, marriage included.

As an overall theme, Pastor K. Bruce Brown presents an understanding of “postmodernism” that has turned the truth upside down. This is an important point. Stating that the world is at an “end time” high of tolerating ungodly behaviors; we must teach our children the Word of God and God’s ways. In case you had not noticed the state's desire to take your children. Therefore, the Pastor strongly urges Christians to continually seek His Kingdom first, above all else. 

This book carries weightiness and holiness and is a timely word for all Christians, married or not. With keen insight, Pastor K. Bruce Brown sounds a call for change. His book offers valuable life-changing information. Some could compare this book to gazing through a prism of light with many multi-faceted colors, emanating from each angle. The author speaks in plain terms but opens eyes and ears to both the earthly realm and the heavenly realm revealing the two kingdoms that collide here on Earth. 

*Additionally, in the latter part of the book, the author discusses the book of Daniel. He speaks about the end times and builds faith, answering questions one might have.

This book comes highly recommended for those looking to delve into a deep and dedicated relationship, seeking to know their Abba Father, and His ways, and bring their life and marriage to a Kingdom level of living and breathing in the Kingdom. A wonderful read!

CBM Christian Book Review - Jesus and the Two Storms

Title: Jesus and the Two Storms
By: Roland Ramirez
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0 stars

Divinely inspired, Roland Ramirez, breaks down the two storms written in the books of Matthew and Mark. Studying and commenting on each verse, readers catch a glimpse of the context and learn lessons of faith to find victory. Readers will discover new and fresh insights, as these stories that build character and faith within the body of Christ. Learn to overcome life’s trials, and glean from these two storms, to understand that with Jesus, you are never alone and you can get through to victory in your life’s storms.

We all are familiar with the storm that arose wherein the disciples were terrified and the Lord seemed to be asleep in the bow of the boat. The other storm arose and Jesus was walking on water; Peter called out to Him, and then Jesus spoke to Peter to “Come.”  When God says, “Come,” what is our response? This book is written to help readers understand various aspects of each of these two storms. Do we get out of the boat? Do we have faith? When do we call out to Jesus for help?

The theme of the book is a call to endurance, and to call out to our Lord quickly, knowing that we can experience victory no matter what storm we may experience in life with Jesus helping or at the helm of our boat. Each chapter begins with a scripture, followed by an explanation with several introspective questions at the end. This book could be used individually, or in a group Bible setting. A salvation prayer at the back is included for those who need to reach out to the Lord. This is a wonderful way to reach out to the lost, teach them, increase their faith, and encourage them to walk through their trials with the Lord in their lives.

Also, a must-read book for every Christian as a reminder to Whom we follow and for encouragement within all the trials we face in this life.

This book helps one to refocus on the Lord and Scripture, and also to remember that no one is excluded from the trials and tests of this life; yet, we have Jesus and His victory to help us walk through any storm, situation, or circumstance. A great encouragement and challenge to learn to lean on the Lord at all times.

CBM Christian Book Review -21 Reasons for Trusting in God: Finding Inner Peace in His Existence

Title: 21 Reasons for Trusting in God:
Finding Inner Peace in His Existence
By: L.A. Buckley
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0 stars

L.A. Buckley presents a compelling book offering faith in God through the lens of science, philosophy, and historical evidence for God. Science-backed proof of the existence of God coincides with theories such as the Big Bang Theory, evolution, etc., as she offers answers to why Creation and the Universe point to the organization of a Designer. That “Designer” is God, the Creator of the Universe who sent His Son to pay the debt for sin. Her evidence addresses the “age-old” debate many have engaged in, wondering if there is really a God. She has written this book to answer the question of “why” people should believe.  She shares her faith journey and knowledge in sharing with her young teen son, as he wrestled with doubt if there was really a God.

Examples of the questions answered in this book are: 
  • How can I fully trust God when I can’t physically see Him or touch Him?
  • What happens after death? Do Heaven and Hell really exist?
  • What should I trust? Scientific evolution or creation?
  • If God is real, then why do people suffer?
She states, “I want to assure you God is real. The Bible is His word. Jesus died for your sins. He loves you more than you can ever imagine and is worth your trust.”

With a direct and easy-to-read book, the author gives evidence that refutes many different theories and presents the undeniable truth of the God Who created the Universe and created you. Faith in God and understanding truth in the reliability of the Word of God are brought to the surface. She gives the reason why the resurrection is the defining point of Christianity, making Christianity different from all other religions. Miracles, the power of prayer, and the role of the Church give insight into the Bible as our source and God’s Word. This is an interesting read offering insight to some of the disciples and writers of the Bible, giving proof to their findings. Her book displays how God has worked in all these things. Therefore, she offers 21 reasons for trusting in God.

This is a profound and powerful book that is written to transform others’ lives and to lead them into a living faith by discovering “undeniable evidence” of God.

A must-read for all who doubt the existence of a God, their purpose in life, and wonder if there is an afterlife, and if Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven.  These and many more answers offer truth for one to find faith in God, knowing and trusting that God is in fact real.

I also highly recommend this book for those who know they are searching for more in this life and wonder what religion is the truth. Finding the truth is not finding a religion; however, understanding what faith is, why God created you, and Who He is makes all the difference in one’s search. God is not hiding. He wants a relationship with you and wants you to go to heaven after you die.

By: Debra Webster
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0 stars

Cracking the Bridle Code to Transformation by Debra Webster is a fascinating and in-depth look into God’s design for the Bride of Christ from Genesis to Revelation. Revealing great insight into these bridal truths in Scripture brings great clarity and intimacy with Christ. She states, “Much of the Church knows almost nothing about being the bride of God. The purpose of this book is to fix that problem.” With that in mind, Debra Webster unlocks the bridal code to bring forth transformation.

Beginning with the fall in Eden and separation from God, her book unveils the longing of the Bride. She states that freedom from the bondage of slavery from Eden brings Lordship to Christ. Shame is broken and intimacy is restored. Engaging, this book is not a fictional story, but truth unveiled from the Scriptures. Some are hidden, some are plain to see, yet only for those who truly seek Him (Jesus). Webster quotes Jerimiah 29:11, “If you seek me you will find me if you search for me with all your heart." Further stating, “He has been waiting for centuries to be known by her. She not only desires Him above all else, but she finds obedience a joy.”

The author has written to those who want to find Him, know Him, and hear His voice! The author has brought forth an amazing teaching that gives great insight into Scripture, God’s desire from the beginning of time to your own desire, and for those who seek God wholeheartedly. This is the remnant, the Bride of Christ, that is to be the Lamb’s wife.

 A truly amazing book and teaching about the Bridal Journey to Transformation!

Debra Webster is a multi-published author and a Writer’s Digest Award winner. Her non-fiction books assist the Body of Christ, answer questions, and offer truth on the Bride of Christ. Her own Bridal journey accepted a calling that came from the Lord to prepare the body of Christ, the Bride, for her Husband, Jesus Christ. Her books are deep, yet relevant and filled with truth from the Word of God. Edifying, her books highlight the End Time Bride and resonate with the true nature of God’s enduring promises and unfathomable love for His Bride. She is an author who dearly cares about teaching the End Time Bride of Christ the authentic and true Word of God for their lives in hopes of bringing transformation to those who truly seek the Lord first in their lives. Her books come highly recommended, as she is a seasoned author, and also a true seeker of God with thirty-five years of studying on the Bride of Christ and the Word of God.

CBM Christian Book Review - Seeking Truth

Title: Seeking Truth
By: Clinton Bezan
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0+ stars

Clinton Bezan writes in his second venture proclaiming the truth of Jesus Christ and the veracity of the Bible. He humbly expresses that he is simply a “conduit” that writes as God’s Grace and Spirit have influenced him. 

In this book, Seeking Truth, he begins with questions we all have and then he springboards into different categories as evidenced by the chapters below. He adds an interesting twist by asking if Allah is God. He condemns the religion machine, but facilitates the looking at life as “a breath” and considers all to examine eternity. He makes his plea to not neglect the salvation of one’s soul that shall live into eternity, either with God in Heaven or forever separated from the love of God. Within this, he states his claim about a worldly church that denies a form of true godliness. Firm and resolute, he states that salvation is the only way to bring true release from the things of this world. He seeks to reveal the truth of Jesus Christ and His offer of the free gift of salvation alongside the truth of the Bible for whosoever is interested. 

With such chapters as: A Drop in the Ocean, Great Expectations, Christians in Crisis, Narrow is the Road, The Enemy Within, Church Progress, Is Allah God? Immeasurable Blessings, When in Rome, Gratitude in Your Attitude, Ambassadors for Christ, Spiritual Power, & Freedom to Celebrate he offers wisdom in each chapter. Additionally, Bezan gives statistics revealing persecution from terrorism worldwide, the Church’s error in allowing gay ministers to be ordained while offering Scripture throughout. 

The author brings the teachings of the Word that exhort, encourage, and speaks the truth of the gospel of Christ to all. While encouraging all to live for Christ, laying down their lives, in full obedience to the Spirit and to the Word encompassed in the Bible. Offering hope, the author gives Christians understanding as to their authority in Christ within the chapter “Spiritual Power” and uplifts those to not compromise. This is a hearty read in spite of the world, cultural digression, and the Church’s place as a light to all amid the darkness pervading society.

Thought-provoking, Bezan constantly challenges readers to come up higher in their beliefs and to base their beliefs on Jesus Christ and His teachings that align with Scripture. This is not a watered-down book, as he speaks the truth in the world we live in and contrasts this truth with the Word of God. 

This book comes highly recommended for anyone seeking truth and purpose in their life. A great read for new and mature believers alike.

CBM Book Review - Forgiving Oneself

Title: Forgiving Yourself
By: Paul Roebuck
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0+ stars

Forgiving Yourself by Paul Roebuck sheds light on powerful Biblical principles throughout Scripture that enable readers to be set free in their own souls! 

Paul Roebuck offers and explains key Biblical principles in this easy teaching making clear the power of forgiveness by putting into practice key commandments from the Bible. What makes this book unique is his understanding and teaching of what forgiveness looks like, giving readers easy-to-follow principles that will set one free from guilt, shame, rejection, fear, etc. He also clearly states that forgiveness is not forgetting, yet it is key to moving forward in life because offenses will come.

Further explaining that forgiveness is not only a command from Jesus, but has been set in place for us to follow in obedience, so that we can be free within our own minds, and also relationally with others. God cannot forgive us if we do not forgive others. Forgiveness further frees us from past offenses and hurts, so that we can move on to enjoy peace and joy. The Father wants to abundantly bless His children; unforgiveness can be a trap that “does the devil’s work” that reaches far beyond what we can comprehend. 

Forgiveness reaches and blesses every area of our lives touching marriages, families, and all relationships inside and outside of the home, in the workplace, and in public; without forgiveness, we will be forever trapped by shame, guilt anger, bitterness, offense, and other downtrodden mentalities. Unforgiveness blocks blessing from the Lord relationally, in His Kingdom, and even financially. Forgiveness is a profound Biblical truth revealed in this easy read. 

A fantastic, uplifting, and powerful read!
