In Picking a President, author Marty Schoenleber, Jr. proposes a grand reimagining of the process of choosing a candidate for office, any office. Examining the book of Proverbs and its wisdom, he proposes selecting candidates not by party affiliation, money raised, or even experience but by character, integrity, vision and justice.
This is a book that will challenge open -minded thinker on both the right and the left and provides practical suggestions for how you can make a real difference in the next election.
What others are saying:
"Marty Schoenleber's book is an invaluable tool for aid in making your decision. This is not a partisan rant, it is a thoughtful and provocative exploration of the qualities we should look for in all our elected officials. In an age of "moral relativism," the author presents objective moral criteria to search for in our candidates. He also intersperses an interesting section as part of each chapter outlining how only one vote or very few votes made an enormous difference in history. Food for thought to anyone so cynical as to believe their vote doesn't matter."

What others are saying:
"This book challenged me to examine my values and consider how I have made this world my home. As a follower of Jesus Christ, it is my desire to live in obedience to Him, but this book showed me how my natural tendency to preserve my security, comfort, and convenience holds me back.
Marty Schoenleber invites the reader to go deep, challenging us to examine our lives to see where we have settled in as if this world were our home and exhorting us to live as if Jesus were our greatest treasure. A must read for any serious disciple!"

Experience the Passion of Christ is a Lenton devotional patterned after the medieval era "Stations of the Cross." It is based on the last 18 hours of Jesus's life from the last supper to his being laid in a tomb before his resurrection three days later.
Here's what others are saying about the book:
"We are in high gear the whole day. We even read in high gear. Keep this beautifully written and illustrated devotional by your chair and it will help you spend a few minutes each day in a lower gear in prayer and devotion. You deserve it. Your soul deserves it." Terry Lee- Amazon review
​
"Experience the Passion of Christ will feed your soul as you ponder the journey of Jesus to the cross. These fourteen meditations will help you enter into the sufferings of Jesus and will show you how his death and resurrection can touch and change your life today."
