The New Arrival

I wrote this book out of my love for horses and children. I have created stories and poems for my children since they were very young. With the birth of our colt, Mouse, I felt the children would enjoy reading about the barnyard, the people, and the spiritual experience that took place. I felt this was a true blessing from God for my family and I to have the pleasure of witnessing.

Sharon Baker

I was born in DuQuoin, Illinois on September 12, 1952. I presently live in the small town of Malden, located in southeastern Missouri. I am a single mother of two wonderful sons, Terry and James "Red", who are in the book. The story, The New Arrival is a true story and tells how God blessed us. My love for horses and writing stories started at the age of ten. I have been writing stories and poems, as well as telling stories, ever since. I have owned and ridden horses since I was a teenager. I taught my sons to ride when they were two and five years of age. I have taught and continue to teach other children to ride and care for horses. It is such a blessing to be able to enjoy these magnificent animals God has created. It gives me such joy to see others share the love of horses as I do.

Michael David Lord

In Exchanged Glory II: The OK Stronghold, Michael David Lord continues the journey he began in Exchanged Glory: A Vision of Freedom. His focus shifts from his particular struggle with sexual addiction to addiction in general. With suprising insights into God's Word, human psychology and American culture, he helpsus to see destructive compulsions more clearly.
-There is no need to have read the previous book before reading this one. It stands on its own as it lays bare the workings of "The OK Strondhold".
-You are once again invited to join the journey -- and to discover who makes you truly OK.

"...there is such a rush of contemporaneous insights, each so clear in its own perception, that one could almost expect that they could be patented...a voice, biblically attuned, yet full of truth and grace, shares in a culturally relevant manner. ...It wouldn't suprise me to hear "OK Stronghold" stories and testimonies beginning to pop up in recovery groups." --Robert Dennis, from the Foreword

"I have yet to see a more absolute resolution to addiction than the thesis advocated in Mr. Lord's volumes." --Tony Chiarilli, Moderator of Free in Christ Ministry

Celio Ramos Diaz

Jehovah’s last message to the Church before the Rapture
“Prepare to meet thy God, O Israel” (Amos 4:12).

The sexual terrorism in the Churches
The terrorism that this country has suffered with resignation in these past months, has reached alarming proportions. I has extended as a diabolic power in the form of sexual terrorism against innocent children all the way to the catholic priests’ altars and the denominational pastors’ pulpits.
Catholic priests have fabulous college educations; denominational pastors have corresponding doctorates, yet, as we see each day on television, no one can explain why they cannot see that their sins are ministering to demons Because of the sexual terrorism against the children, Jehovah will never recognize them because they are “evildoers” (matt. 7:22-23). Nevertheless…
The Pastors of God and The Pastors of Satan without the knowledge of a Catholic priest nor the capacity or doctorate of a pastor, in each one of its pages affirms with biblical knowledge that their diabolic ignorance is due to the brutality that sin causes in man without respecting his human knowledge (II Cor. 4:3-4), to which Jehovah adds with divine power that he donkey and ox will love and have gratitude towards their owner, but the priests and sexist pastors, invaded by terrorist sexual demons against children, will never feel love and gratitude towards their God (Isa. 1:3).
That’s why when the reader reads these pages, he will avoid with repugnance the sexual terrorism of the churches recognizing the difference between…
The Pastors of God and The Pastors of Satan.

John Meacham

Biblical, historic, and lexical evidence prove that the N.T. Greek parousia has been inaccurately rendered. Amending of the passages show that the parousia of Jesus is His Presence, His Reign, and His Kingdom, all of which began upon his resurrection.
What you will find within these pages:
WHY the early Church was victorious.
WHY that early Church declined in power.
HOW modern theologians have succumbed to errors introduced in the close of the apostolic and later times.
WHY the "Rapture" is not the "Blessed Hope."
HOW the CHURCH of the 21st Century will regain the power of the First Century Church.
HOW you, as a believer in Jesus Christ, may be filled with the awe and wonder of God's presence.
INSPIRATION and encouragement for participating in revival, restoration, and renewal today.


John T. Meacham is a Pastor, Missionary, and Holy Spirit annointed Teacher. Aside from many years as a teacher in primary, secondary, and collegiate level, teaching math and the earth sciences, he is a family man; with his wife of 50+ years, Norma Jo, they raised nine children. John served as pastor of the Foursquare Church of Lemon Grove, CA. With his wife he founded Heartland Christian School. He is currently retired from college teaching and is Director of Arambe Ministries in Spring Valley, Califiornia. As AM director, he has ministered in meetings and Bible seminars in Europe, Latin America, Eastern and Southern Africa.

Bobby McAllister

The Scales of Justice: America the Great Will Prevail is about God's people taking their place in the world, becoming the expression of Him, and executing his judgement within the earth. It is for every nation, every culture, and every race to bring honor to our King. Dr. McAllister believes this is the continutation of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream for America. We must let freedom ring throughout all nations.
In this powerful account of history, Dr. McAllister elaborates on church deception, the root of rejection, and the Willie Lynch mentality. He transitions us from the mentlity and indoctrination of American slaves and slave owners into liberty of porperly functioning out of the Economy of God.

Rev. Sarah Morgan

LICENSED TO BRUISE!

Genesis 3:15 contains a revelation that will forever change your life!

"And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel."

You are carrying that seed! It is your destiny to bruise the head of the enemy. Whatever demonic devices are trying to kill you and your purpose, all you have to do is put them under your feet and apply the Word of God, which is the Seed that was promised to bruise the head of the serpent--whether it's cancer, poverty, depression or addictions.

Galatians 3:16 says, "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, and to thy Seed, which is Christ."

Therefore, the Seed is Christ. However, in Colossians 1:26, 27 we learn about a great mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which Christ IN YOU. Use the seed IN YOU to bruise the head of the enemy and walk in victory!

Child of God, you are Licensed to Bruise!

A Christmas Gift - NOT!

As a diversion from my normal ramblings about books, during this Christmas season I thought I would offer this humble advice.

10 GIFTS NOT TO BUY YOUR WIFE:

10. A bottle of $8.95 Cheap, simulated perfume: It will make a great insect repellent, and it will also repel your wife.
9. A Christmas sweater with snowmen, reindeer and ornaments. Coming from you, it says "To Grandma Claus."
8. A Golden Dust Pan. I actually bought this with my young boys.
7. An expensive looking Jewelry Box with no Jewelry inside: NEVER lead your wife to believe she is receving jewelry – unless she really is. Don’t wrap up a $10 gift certificate in a jewelry box unless you want to wear the jewelry box on your nose.
6. Exercise equipment of any kind: I don’t care if you buy her the most expensive treadmill in the world with a built-in video screen, this gift says, "I love you, Honey. Now hit the gym and lose that spare tire."
5. A decorative toilet seat. According to the newspaper, a husband in Longmont, Colorado, presented his queen with the ultimate throne to replace one that was cracked. As he climbed into the dog house that afternoon, he was heard to say, "I thought I was giving her something she could always use, day after day. It's was the gift that keeps on giving."
4. The infamous cheese-and-sausage basket sampler. Your wife's ultimate fantasy is not chucking down liverwurst and attractively-packaged Gouda cheese in plastic wrap.
3. A vacuum cleaner. Even if she needs a new vacuum, don't buy it on a special occasion. It says, "This place looks like a landfill." Also avoid floor waxers, lawn mowers and step ladders.
2. Two Tickets to a concert where she doesn’t like the singer.
1. Sexy lingerie. Far too risky. This gift says, “Hey honey, put one on and look sexy for me because I want more sex.”
If you really love her, buy her cotton flannel pajamas.

Finally, make sure you know what she likes.

Two-Part Giving

“This is the most comprehensive book on the Holy Spirit (other than the Bible) that I have ever read.”
-President Michael Wourms
Christian Services Network

The Two-Part Giving of the Holy Spirit captures the heart of Pastor Snyder’s working relationship with the Holy Spirit over a period of many years as pastor of Rivers Community Church in Phoenix, AZ. This book defines and explains what The Two-Part Giving of the Holy Spirit is and represents in the life of the believer and the Church. It explains in detail the first-part giving of the Holy Ghost as it pertains to one’s salvation experience, and the second-part giving as it pertains to the baptism with the Holy Ghost, all of which Jesus accomplished through the feasts.

This book challenges readers to embrace the Word of God for themselves and to open their eyes as to the manner in which God works in His Church through the Person and ministry of the Holy Spirit. God the Father gave the Holy Ghost through the second Person of the Trinity, the Lord Jesus Christ, to empower the Church in the same manner that Jesus was empowered by the Holy Ghost.

It defines the difference between the “logos” and the “Rhema” and leads the reader into an understanding that the Holy Spirit is the “revelator” of the Word of God, unfolding the manner of how that works through the “anointing”. The Two-Part Giving of the Holy Spirit leads the reader on a prophetic journey through the Bible to discover the riches of the power that God the Father “promised” to give the Church…the riches and the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus said in John 14:12, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” (KJV)

Discover the “miraculous” in your personal life by taking a Biblical adventure and journey through this book to realize how this is possible.

Stephanou

This is the story of a GreeK Orthodox priest's passionate search for spiritual renewal, and how God net that need both for himself personally and then generally for his church at large. The journey of faith that Father Eusebius Stephanou embarked on proved in effect to be the history of renewal in the Orthodox Church of North America since 1968. The reader will find in this book a gripping account of the controversial events that marked to turbulent course of the renewal outreach he initiated.
This Orthodox priest caught the vision God had given him, but the prophetic calling that came with it thrust him into a collision course with the Church authorities. Ambiguity and mystery have enshrouded the name of this priest. Few, if any, fellow-priests took the trouble to determine with reasonable accuracy what his teachings and activities amounted to. Likewise, the hierarchy passed judgment on this prophet-priest on the basis of hearsay, despite the substantial volume of writings and sound recordings of his messages that were always available. Hopefully, this book will meet a critical need -- to set the record straight. It may also inspire some men and women in the Orthodox Church to welcome the divine calling to continue where this pioneer of renewal leaves off.

Poetry of Stacie Avery

The Way I See It, is a book of my prayers put into poetry about many topics that linger within me. The constant questions in the back of my mind are: “Am I doing the right thing?” “Am I crazy?” “Does God love me?” The beauty and the ugliness of the world confuses many of us. My poetry is a glimpse into my soul and the depth of my dreams.
-Stayce DeRamus-Avery
The Way I See It is a moving and elegant view of what we think about everyday, put into poetry that makes me smile. It also lets me know that I am not the only one.
-Henry Thomas, Houston Texas
New England Patriots # 95
Minnesota Vikings # 97
These prayer poems are a true reflection of pure thoughts stirred up and inspired by our Almighty God from the very embers of the writer’s heart. The inspired work will help all those who read it to express their very deep feelings that they wish they could share with others, but they dare not tell on their own. Helping to give the freedom to others to express their inner spiritual thoughts is a gift to behold and to cherish in prayer and in love.

Dr. Brown

Neither, Death, Devastation, Destruction, Desertion, nor Divorce can destroy us when we learn the Power of God’s Might. God uses the lives of Biblical Widows to instruct us in His ability to deliver us.

While discussing these Godly women, she shares the pain and victory relating to the deaths of her late husbands. Her prayer and hope is that you will gain strength and grow in the Lord, who is the Widows Might. Jesus is your strength and after all, “It’s all about Him!”

Forward by Pastor Ramsey
It is like the proverbial elephant in the room. And of all the fine “specialty ministries” that exist today, no one has truly spoken clearly and passionately about the spiritual, emotional and very personal effects of widowhood.

When we say “until death do us part,” the thought that we may have to someday bury the love of our lives is the farthest thing from our minds. But sadly enough, if the Lord delays His coming, widowhood is not only possible – it is quite probable.

In this thoughtful, provocative, and extremely insightful book, Dr. Brown expresses a compassionate bedside manner as she provides us a road map for facing life after one of its most tender terminal points: death of a spouse.

May this book bring you insight, and if necessary, help you heal from the permanency of your widowhood. But more importantly, my prayer is that you will discover The Widow’s Might. Thank you Dr. Brown! The world has been waiting for this book.

“The Three Powerful P’s” is God’s revelation to me about His desire to do a greater work in the lives of His people. Too many people of God are settling for less than the best. Christ cam to give us life, and that life was intended to be a more abundant way of living. In order to experience this level of blessed living, we must experience His peace, His presence, and His prosperity. These three experiences are the keys to a new level of living.
When Christ was born there was a pronouncement of “Peace, good will toward men!” From the very beginning, God’s desire has been for man to have peace. Despite the chaotic society that we live in, there is an awesome peace for the people of God. The ultimate place of peace is in His presence. Additionally, in His presence you will experience His glory. Careful study of the Old Testament reveals that His glory always included prosperity.
Saints, these three P’s- Peace, Presence, and Prosperity-will change your life forever! If you refuse to settle for less when you can have the best, this book is for you. I pray that it blesses your life forever!

Hi, and welcome to Time Out. Grab yourself a chair and choose a corner-naw, I'm only kidding. This time out is for you. Why? Well, because you deserve it. Because you need it. Because you need a few minutes to forget about:
work, health, family, the project due yesterday, golf skills, vacation plans, exercise, cholesterol level, blood pressure, your mother-in-law, credit card bills, retirement planning, relationships, the kids' education, weeds in the yard, fitness, the leak in the sink, slow drivers in the fast lane, fast drivers crossing all the lanes, traffic reports, weather reports, stock market, energy crisis'-
so you can smile, so you can remember the good stuff, the fun stuff, the funny stuff, that life is made of, so you can breathe in the beauty all around- then go back to your job, your family, your worries- that's okay. But don't forget to... send yourself to time out every now and then.

Patricia Marshall

When you have totally forgiven the enemy, you have crossed over into the supernatural realm.
This book is not a devotional for the casual Christian soldier. It is a much needed guide for anyone who desires to be free from the past pain of abuse. Patricia has centered her devotional on the traumatic experiences of her own life, the brutal rape and beating by three employees at at state hospital, the robbing of a liquor store, living homeless in a park, and the curse of witchcraft put on her as a child, and woven them into a rich and thought provoking book.
Her hope is to see people set free and healed from the emotional scars that want to take over the hearts and lives of God's people. This guide will show you that only through the power of forgiveness can you be set totally free.
Throughout people's lives, circumstances close in and sometimes life can look pretty dark-even in broad daylight. Let God open a few windows for you and let the love of Christ come in and heal the open wounds that have festered for years.

This book is for and to all during a time when everyone has great expectations of God doing the greatest work and manifestation man has ever known. We hear statements such as the open heaven, the day of the Lord, the indwelling, the third day, etc. These kinds of declarations must have some definitive answers otherwise they are merely myths and mystical phrases without foundations to stand on. The book of Hosea states that "the people of God persih for he lackof knowledge." Lack of knowledge meaning a clear understanding of what is being said and happening in the economy of God.

The Discipline of Writing

“I have an incredible story; I just need help writing it.” Is this you? You feel overwhelmed thinking about how to get you story into book form. The best thing to do is just to start writing. An experienced editor or ghostwriter can take what you have written and create a high quality book without taking away from your personality or changing the foundation of your message.
You need to establish a specific time schedule and place that is devoted only to getting your story down in writing. This should be a minimum of two hours at a time with no interruptions. With the help of a good computer many of your grammatical and spelling errors can be corrected for you. When you have everything down an experienced editor and writer can make adjustments to improve the flow of your book and the quality of your writing. An experienced typesetter can than work on making your book look professional with creative graphics and font styles appropriate to your personal style. You will also need a gifted graphic designer to create a cover for your book that will draw your reader’s attention.
It does take discipline to create a high quality book but it also takes a professional team that is willing to work with you to not only produce your book but also make it available to the marketplace.

And for those whose spirit is heavy.

How to Make Your Book Successful

How to Make Your book Successful
You have now finished your manuscript – CONGRATULATIONS! You are already ahead of the many “wannabe” writers of today. But do you know the next step? Some authors think it is to publish. You are close, but there are steps to take BEFORE you publish your book.
The first question to ask yourself is, "Why am I publishing this book?” Your honest answer will determine the journey your book needs to take. If your purpose was to write a book for your own satisfaction or for your family, with no further interest in marketing or selling the book, then you are ready for the next step – to prepare the book for publishing.
If you have hopes of selling your book at any time to a bookstore, conventions, or at conferences (they often use standard bookstore sellers), or if you wish to have your book reviewed, then you need to follow certain steps to ensure those possibilities can happen. These are the steps we suggest:
1. Proper Manuscript Preparation:
The manuscript MUST be presented to the public as the very best it can be. If you have any hesitation that it is not quite what you want, then finish it before you spend time and money to print something that is only “almost there”. Although your book will be professionally edited, you need to have it as near ready and free of mistakes and misspellings as possible before submission. Reviewers and buyers will scan only a few pages to determine if they will consider your book. Poor writing, or the presence of multiple mistakes, could result in an immediate rejection.

Your Informed Publishing Decision

Through the years, we have come to understand that it is very difficult for you to determine what publishing system is right for you. The first thing you can arm yourself with is the knowledge and basic understanding of the publishing industry – and that is the purpose of Before You publish – it shares many of the important things that have evolved in the publishing industry since our founder, Dr. Michael Wourms, first started as a ghostwriter to Christian and secular leaders back in 1983. Mike’s dream was to help others write and publish their books to bless, equip, inform, entertain and train others through the written page.
All of these would-be authors held on to the hope that a major publisher would “discover” their submitted manuscript, and that ultimately, it would soon become a best-seller. Many of these authors had recorded quantities of lectures or sermons on cassette tapes or CD’s; they had all received enthusiastic feedback from their conventions or congregations that their messages needed to be provided to a larger audience. Unfortunately, since many were relatively unknown as ministers or authors, so the old, traditional publishing companies were not interested in their works.
As a result, many of these authors found their dreams remaining unrealized as the traditional doors did not open. It was in that atmosphere that CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing evolved. As we studied the various “alternative” or subsidy publishers and book printers, it became clear that some of these companies offered assistance in taking a manuscript to print, some were just printers, and some even offered meager marketing services (with uncertain success or guarantee) for a set price.
In all cases, the author would fund his own work, and would pocket some of the profits when and if the book sold. This concept greatly appealed to us here at CSN Books and Legacy Line Publishing, but we felt compelled to make some modifications to vastly improve the service to the author.
Our investigations found that most subsidy publishers offered a wide variety of services with varying abilities to edit, re-write, prepare the manuscript, gain copyrights, and take the book to print.
However, few of the companies had a professional understanding of the needs of the author. We vowed that our author’s manuscripts would be professionally and carefully handled to ensure the integrity of the work, and to properly prepare the book to bless others.
As a result of that objective, CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing have assembled a team of men and women of integrity who possess the gifts, skills and experience to take your book to print, as well as the ability to assist in marketing the final product.
Our team of experts, each with his/her own abilities, can now evolve a book from vision to completion, and assist you in marketing your work, both locally (your best market) and nationally. We can even “ghostwrite” your book from notes on a napkin (that actually happened!).
Whatever your needs, we hope you will consider our professional publishing company.

A Vegetarian Delight!!!

A vegetarian cookbook with 184 pages, containing 173 recipes that have been tried and tested to be delicious. Multi-ethnic and popular recipes that are easy to make, yet tasty. This is a great way to make the transition from eating man made foods and animal products to God-made foods for optimum health. These are the foods your body is designed and created to consume.
I used to eat anything and everything struggling with obesity, bags under my eyes, sickness and disease, feeling tired ad grumpy, resulting from the toxic, unhealthy foods I was putting into my body.
God’s original plan for man is in Genesis 1:29. But, God allows us to choose our diet. For the last fifteen years or so I changed my former diet and choose our diet. For the last fifteen years or so I changed my former diet and chose the Genesis 1:29 diet. My life changed completely. Now I understand His word that says, “I shall give you life and life more abundantly.” I have more energy, look much better, lost weight and rarely if ever get sick. Remember you are made in God’s image and that is not a potbelly, excess fat, tired sick and depressed.
Come and join me in living life to its fullest while you are here on earth. Remember it was never God’s plan for you to be sick. This cookbook is the beginning of your new lease on life!

Vessels of Honor

Earline Leming is a woman who radiates the joy and love of Jesus Christ! Whether she is sharing her dramatic healing testimony as she did on 700 club’s “Heart to Heart,” telling of the many prison miracles she ahs seen and heard, or speaks God’s Word under the prophetic anointing of the Holy Spirit, you will be inspired to believe God for the impossible.
She is a self described “pioneer” by helping form what is known today as Aglow Prison Ministry in California and today serves as the Vice President of Ministry and Training on the Aglow State Prison Board.
Healed supernaturally of cancer in 1982, Earlene began her journey of faith by taking God’s healing love to prison facilities, the homes of parolees, churches and women’s groups. Since her journey began, she has witnessed to literally thousands of hurting women, helping them to realize their potential in Christ.
In her new book, “Vessels Of Honor,” Earlene tenderly shares from her heart these true stories. It is available through the Sheperd Foundation where she currently serves as President.
The Sheperd Foundation Ministry began in the 1950’s as an outreach to men in prison. It’s founders; Phil and Marie Thatcher understood the need to reach people who are incarcerated. They knew this was a “mission field” where the harvest was plentiful and the laborers were few. Earlene shares this vision and knows beyond a doubt that this is the “mission field” to which she has been called.
Phil Thatcher, known as “the father of prison ministry” has gone home to be with the Lord. He has left his legacy of films and videos along with his book, “Under Arrest,” which he produced.
Earlene will change you today to fulfill “God’s destiny” and discover the meaning of Jeremiah 29:11 for yourself!

Henry Cox

Most of us learn, early in our Christian experience, that we do not just face one enemy…we face a team of evil forces that have banded together in an attempt to destroy us. Those enemies are commonly called “the world, the flesh, and the devil.” The world pressures us and hammers us and tries to conform us to its mold. The flesh is the sinfulness within us, which betrays us and undermines us and interferes with us, even though we want to serve God with our minds and our bodies. The devil is master strategist of the assault against us, and sometimes attacks us openly, sometimes craftily, but always with an unerring sense of where our weaknesses lie.

Together, the world, the flesh, and the devil make an unbeatable combination if not for the saving intervention of God. Without God, victory against such an alliance is impossible. With God, victory is assured.

Rev. Craft...Virtue and Vice

Reverend Steven Louis Craft and Detective Roxon Flowers are uniquely qualified to write this practical, no-nonsense book: "Virtue and Vice: A Fascinating Journey Into Spiritual Transformation."
Reverend Craft's insights as a former heroin addict in New York City reveal the religious hypocrisy that prevailed in his life until he was confronted with the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. A modern-day Prodigal Son, he repented of his sins, turned fully to christ for cleansing, and now preaches the uncomprimising Word of God around the world.
Retired New York City Police Detective, Roxon Flowers on the opposite side of the law, nevertheless was confronted with the same Gospel of Truth, and turned from sexual immorality to embrace the purity and power of holiness.
Together, Craft and Flowers have committed their lives to sharing with others the necessity of repentence toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Dean Lang

Vision is often the difference between success and failure. This book is a story of vision in action with lots of faith. Often people say, “If I were rich I would do…” so and so. No, if you have a vision you will find a way to do it! If you are a young person I urge you to read this book and see where vision will take you. If you are a senior citizen you may think it is too late for you. NOT SO! The majority of great achievements in this world have been accomplished by people over sixty years of age. Colonel Sanders started KFC with his first Social Security check. The founder of McDonalds was looking for something to do as he approached retirement when he ran across the McDonald brothers little restaurant in California…and you know where that vision took him. I urge people of every age and walk of life to read this book. May it kindle in you a vision to accomplish great things for our Lord with your life.

There are many people who dream and wish but never do anything about it. As you read this book you will find that when you have a vision, nothing can stop you. Maybe this is the one thing that has been missing in your life. You will laugh and maybe cry as you read these pages, but you will not want to put this book down. Truth is more exciting than fiction, and this is a true life story. As you read these exciting accounts of vision, may you catch a vision for yourself. Try it – you’ll like it. It would be interesting to hear what this book does for your life.

What is Partnership Publishing?

Partnership Publishing
CSN books and Legacy Line publishing serve our authors through what we call “Partnership Publishing.” In our system, the author pays an extremely reasonable fee to publish his/her book, but unlike almost every other model, in our system, THE AUTHOR KEEPS THE BULK OF THE PROFITS!
For example, for books sold on our websites, both CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing take only 20%, and return a full 80% to the author. Most major sites will take from 50% to 65% and return the meager remains to the author. Despite that generous return to the author, we provide all the major services of any old, traditional publisher, such as proofing, editing, typesetting, cover design, publication, marketing, distribution and publicist services.
The key ingredient that makes us truly different is that the author maintains the same control he/she would have had as a self-publisher, yet enjoys the benefits of CSN Books and Legacy Line Publishing: national publishers backed by a solid reputation within the publishing industry. Our authors enjoy the benefits of self-publishing (control over the final product, large profits), and also enjoy the benefits of a traditional publisher – national advertising, availability through national distributors to bookstores, and the use of our experienced marketing and publicity teams.

Holt...Real stories of Inspiration

Walk With God: lessons learned through God's faithfulness is a book filled with separate stories about God's faithfulness in our daily lives.
As Christians we tend to forget how active God really is in our lives, more powerful than we could ever imagine.
As you read, we the authors hope that would put yourself in the characters shoes. Think of when you may have had opportunities like these. And from the stories, learn to put your faith in Christ. Believe us, you will never regret the decision to follow Him with all that you have.

"What I like about the stories shared by Brian, Clay and Josh is that they are real. Instead of pretending that it is easy to be a Christian, they share their honest struggles, and show how great God is when we are weak." --Dr. Bob Rogers, pastor, First Baptist Church, Rincon, Georgia and author of "Holy Humor," a weekly religious humor column.

Dennis Hamilton...We Shall Come Rejoicing

-Learn how to evangelize effectively
-Learn how to deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ
-Learn how to experience true joy
Experience the joy of going out and sharing Good News. In this book of evangelical messages, you will find glad tidings. The one who goes out to witness rejoices because of his success; the one who receives the Lord rejoices, and Heaven also rejoices.

TESTIMONIALS:
"If you want a rich spiritual experience with beautifully explained teachings, this book is for you. Dennis Hamilton's delightful style enables the reader to search new meanings. You'll be enriched, and uplifted, and come away feeling as though you'd gone on a bible retreat. Time well invested. Highly recommended."
-Linda Moltzen Wade, Freelance Writer, Porto Valley, CA

"Dennis Hamilton's We Shall Come Rejoicing! is a treasure. This book contains a quality of Christian dynamics written in easy-to-read English. Hamilton takes the reader through the depths of spiritual experience with many biblical and other characters, so now every Christian can see himself or herself as a victorious missionary on the front lines with Jesus Christ."
-Pastor High Vines, Jr., Th.M, Lit.D.,Caleb Bible Mission and School of Theology

"We Shall Come Rejoicing" is wonderfully encouraging. I've just finished reading Dicken's "Christmas Carol" and it has the same theme Ð those who understand who God is and how much He cares for the whole world have the grand opportunity to spread rejoicing everywhere they go and double for themselves.
-Ruth Guggenheim, Santa Barbara, CA

Dennis Stephen Hamilton, in his book "We Shall Come Rejoicing" is quick to point out the threefold effects in sharing the message of the Gospel. The person who brings another to Christ is filled with joy as is the person himself who receives the Good News, and the heavens rejoice as well in another soul being saved.

Hamilton's generous use of scripture passages throughout his book provides the reader with words of truth, to not only share with others, but also to grow in his or her own relationship with Jesus Christ. It is best read slowly, perhaps a chapter a day, in order to savor the Word of God and let it sink deeply into the heart.

It is not a how-to book on evangelism but one that contains treasures of biblical wisdom, opening the eyes of the reader to the joy of the Good News of the Gospel. Hamilton maintains that joy will be enhanced when it is shared and passed on to unbelievers.

Estell Meruvia message on hope

Chapter Two of the book reads like a novel but it isn't. It is a true story; a sad story. However, as you read, you will be touched deeply by its message of hope and endurance. You will be encouraged to help suffering humanity by putting into practice the author's suggestions enumerated in Chapter Seven.
Everyone must know and have the assurance that: "It is in dying that we are born to ETERNAL LIFE." Or, as the Apostle Paul discerned: "For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
Following are some reader's comments:
"I just couldn't put it down."
"I read and read until I finished it!"
"It really touched me; it made me cry..."
"You're really a brave lady."
"How you had the boldness to write the way you did, is impressive."

Bishop Adkins Take on...

When Headship Goes Bad was designed to shine the spotlight on the enemy's trickery and assault on leadership in the Body of Christ and the world at large, as well as detailing the steps to take in rebounding from this fallen state. It has also been developed so as not to intimidate the reader, but to challenge you to get back into a position of leadership by offering all the biblical patriots who have struggled in one capacity or another, but went on to be great in the Kingdom as a reference that you can make it. This book is a "must have" for every leadership library.

What About Subsidy Publishing?

As the publishing industry became more competitive, and as many traditional publishers declared bankruptcy under the “royalty” model, a new system emerged called “subsidy publishing”. In this system, if the publishing company accepted the book, the author would then pay for the cost of publication, and receive a slightly larger compensation as the books sold. As this system emerged, many authors who still believed in the “old, traditional” system, maintained:
“I’ll never pay to get my book published. If it is any good, a ‘real’ publisher will pick it up and promote it.”
For a good ten years, the term “subsidy publisher” had a relatively negative stigma attached to it by many authors.
As subsidy publishing evolved, the term “self-publishing” entered the industry. In self-publishing, the author pays all the costs of the book, and also publishes it under his/her own publishing company name. As a result, tens of thousands of new publishers sprouted up all over America, most producing products so inferior that the bookstores would never consider carrying them on their shelves.
Today’s Subsidy Publisher
In today’s market, virtually every major publisher has evolved into utilizing some form of subsidy publishing. Of course, the old, traditional publishers still exist for the highly visible authors who have large audiences who stand ready to buy their next book. For example, if you have a nationwide television show, or are a popular entertainer or politician, you may still get your book published under the old royalty system and do fairly well economically.
However, most of the “old, traditional publishers” have now also added some sort of “subsidy publishing” to their arsenal for those authors who do not have a built-in following through which they can sell a large amount of books.
By using some form of subsidy publishing, many quality books that previously would not have been published are now available to the market. Of the 193,000 books published in the last year where records are available, the vast majority were under some sort of a “subsidy” arrangement. The subtle shift in the industry is that these subsidy products were produced under the supervision of a skilled publisher, thus producing a product far superior to most of the self-published books.

The Publishing Industry - Part One

Not many industries are more complex, more changing and challenging than the publishing industry. To help you, as an emerging author, navigate these sometimes complicated waters, the staff of CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing has complied this book for your information and edification. Before You publish shares answers to questions that our authors and prospective clients have asked us through over three decades of service through CSN Books (our Christian book division), and now, through Legacy Line publishing (our secular book division).
The publishing industry has changed drastically over the last 25 years, yet so many potential authors continue to operate under the old concepts of what constitutes a publishing company. Hopefully, this book will clarify the evolution of the industry.

The “Old, Traditional” Publisher
Many authors still believe that the only way to publish their book is to submit their manuscript to a publisher, wait two to six months for an answer, and hope they accept the manuscript for publication. For the vast majority of authors (estimates range up to 99%), the old process results in a rejection slip.
Assuming that a traditional publisher found your book to be in the top 1% and accepted your book, that meant the publisher would publish your book at no cost to you. If your book started to sell, they would then pay you a meager royalty, frequently as little as 5% (for a first-time author) on the net sales (after they deducted their costs for publishing and promoting the book). In this system, although the author did not pay for the book costs up front, they still eventually paid back the publisher as the books sold.
Unfortunately, under this system, many new authors have sold hundreds of thousands of books, only to receive meager royalty checks after publisher expenses were deducted. Even the legendary “book advances” the public hears about are normally paid back to the publisher if the book fails to sell in the marketplace.

Where Angels Tread

This book is a fiction account of God’s destiny for a young orphan’s life. I acknowledge that some of the accounts in this book involving angels are based from true life experiences. My grandmother was saved in a miraculous way when she was very young. Accounts from my family, other Christians, and appearances in the Bible involving angels are also used as inspiration for this story. I know from personal experience that angels are real and that the spititual world exists and is ever present all around us.
Not all children are blessed with good parents or parents who love the Lord. But, if children are faithful where they are, God will show them the destiny that is their very own, the true purpose for their lives.

Rev. Edwards

“The greatest love that you can receive this side of heaven is a father’s love, and most of us have never received it,” says Dr. Edwards. The revelation of this book was birthed out of the personal, seemingly negative and tragic experiences of his own life. However, his mess was processed into a message to the Body of Christ.
The role of the father is almost non-existent in many of our communities, especially in the black community where fathers are missing in action in 70% of the families, and up to 80% in large urban areas. This absence of fathers is a condition that many of our women have learned to live with and accept as the way things are. What has been lost is a vision of how God intends it to be, and His desire to bring a restoration of fathers to their God-given roles, fathers who will ultimately reflect the fatherhood of God to a new generation.

Reverend Dr. Jefferson Edwards is Founder and Senior Pastor of the Freedom Christian Center Church in Kansas City, Missouri, and the President of Jeff Edwards Ministries International. He has traveled extensively as an itinerant minister for over 30 years to most of the United States and to over 15 nations.
He has had the privilege of addressing many Prime Ministers and Representatives of Government within many of these locations. He is the celebrated author of the best selling book, “Chosen Not Cursed,” and has also authored “Liberated-No Longer Bound,” “The Call of God,” “Gifted-Discovering Your Hidden Greatness,” and “Purging Racism from Christianity.”
Dr. Edwards has a special commission and mandate from God to bring down the barriers that divide races and denominations and to address the present day crisis concerning the family with a special emphasis to black men, and the black family.
He received both his Bachelors and Masters degrees in Biblical Theology, and he is finishing the last stages of his earned Ph.D. in Biblical and Ethnical Studies, having developed curriculum for this major, and completed his dissertation on the subject of Biblical Black History. He has also received an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree.
Well spoken of as a gifted and anointed preacher, teacher and prophet to churches in the United States, Jefferson Edwards is also recognized as an Apostle to the Nations and the Body of Christ.

Bishop Densmore

Where Are the Sons & Daughters of Ministry? is a provoking challenging book speaking to leaders who flow in the five-fold ministry, challenging them to submit to the spiritual authority in the Body of Christ to equip them for the next dimension. The Lord has given us apostolic fathers, but because many leaders have been hurt by leadership, they have difficulty submitting to authority. So, our apostolic fathers are asking: “Where Are The Sons and Daughters of Ministry?” Hopefully, this book will enable hurt leaders to heal and experience all the Lord has for their lives and ministries.

Denise Grant newest

It is the tendency of humans to ask questions that are rhetorical in nature. In fact, the very first question asked by an infant is usually why. It is the question of why that permeates our thinking and processing incessantly. God has no boundaries or limits, He is arbitrarily large and infinite therefore you and I cannot fathom His power and might. We really cannot expect to understand God’s ways or His mind. God is eternal, majestic, self-existent, self-conscious, infinite and transcendent. Yahweh’s great power and wisdom in creation in His ability to bring about ex nihilo (‘out of nothing’) are enough to expose mankind’s lack of understanding of Him.
We are thoroughly aware of this, yet to satisfy, justify, or to get some kind of concept or mere understanding of our present situation we ask, why? No question has been more widely or poignantly asked as, “Why does God allow?” The world is in chaos and finds it’s self in a paradox. For Christians, theodicy, God’s sovereignty, is a great dilemma.
My prayer is that as you read will be encouraged despite your circumstances and that somehow through the pages you may find some words or simple answer to your ‘whys’ that will enable you to grow deeper in your faith and walk with Christ. I pray also that in addition to finding help and hope most importantly someone will find Christ.

“And we know that all things work together for the good of them who love God and are called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28, KJV)

Lori Miller...Fantastic miracles

Next came the words I will never forget..."You have cancer." The words echoed off the walls of the doctor's office like the sound of the metal ball in a pinball machine spinning out of control. My world began to spin just as wildly. I know the doctor kept talking. "Stage 2 ovarian cancer...we're lucky to have caught it in this early...We recommend six months of chemotherapy..."

"The beautiful thing about Lori's story is that while it is certainly an extraordinary story of and extraordinary woman, it is also universal. Anyone who has battled cancer or has a loved one battling cancer will want to weep with Lori at her diagnosis, will be able to feel the agony of her treatment, and will understand the new perspective that only cancer can bring. For those of us who are fortunate enough not to have fought that battle, Lori's story reminds us all of just how precious life is and what really matters." --Jessica King, Nutritionist, Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA)

What is Ghostwriting?

“Ghostwriting” is a term used in the publishing industry to describe when an author needs the professional help of a skilled writer to assimilate the information they have researched and developed, and help put that information into a book. If you think that hiring a ghostwriter to help write your book is “cheating”, please know that simply is not true.
Ghostwriting is considered the highest level of editing. The material provided to a ghostwriter is usually in raw form, such as notes or an outline. Some ghostwriters may even require interview sessions with the author so they may incorporate the information correctly, and make sure the personality of the author is in the book.
A good deal of the ghostwriting we do is for pastors and national leaders who have the talent to research an inspired message, but not the time to write it as a book. That pastor or leader clearly has an awesome, powerful message, but if he/she does not have the gift of writing, does that mean the book idea should perish?
Absolutely not!
That is why we offer writers who have a gift of writing to take the well-researched, spoken message and convert it into a powerful, written message.
Here at CSN Books and Legacy Line publishing we can take compiled material and assign a ghostwriter to the project to bring that message into bookstore quality writing. We all cannot be great preachers or singers or writers or builders. If we were, we would not need others in our lives. ghostwriting is simply a tool to bring your message to market.
Ghostwriting is the most expensive method of writing a book, and it provides the highest quality of writing needed to be successful in this competitive market. Authors who use ghostwriters usually do not have the time needed to properly write a book, so for them, the extra money is well spent.
