"Addiction is a chronic, progressive and incurable disease," says author John C. Fleming, a Louisiana physician who specializes in treating individuals and families facing the problem. "Though treatable, recovery rates are very low." Prevention is the only guaranteed way to avoid the life-long, personal-and-family misery associated with drug abuse, Fleming maintains. In his ground-breaking book, Fleming shows parents how to truly "drug-proof" their children. Parents wanting to help their children avoid drugs altogether as well as parents who already face the prospect of a drug-using child or teen will benefit greatly by reading and implementing the techniques described in his book.

Addiction & Recovery

Destructive relationships . vicious cycles of codependent family members . living with secret shame . choosing the wrong mate . unhealthy sexual attractions . the heartbreak of trying to force someone we love to love us in return. These are just a few of the issues that so many of us seem to wrestle with again and again. But why? Tom Joseph knows. As a licensed clinical pastoral counselor and host of his own radio call-in talk show, he has heard it all-from the perfectionist father addicted to pornography to the lottery winner forced to declare bankruptcy. He shares these riveting stories and many, many more in Why We Stay Stuck. His unflinching, no-nonsense approach to identifying the root of a problem is followed by down-to-earth advice for getting out of relational quagmires.

The facts your college professor doesn't want you to know . . . Record numbers of high school and college students are giving up on God and the Christian faith . . . unable to defend their faith against the onslaught of academic 'facts' from their instructors that 'prove' there is no evidence to support the historical accuracy of the Bible. This explosive book exposes the claims against the Bible as a gross distortion of the evidence. Dr. Tom Tribelhorn brings a lifetime of experience and intensive study in Israel to bring students and their parents face-to-face with the real facts. You'll be surprised to learn that some of the strongest advocates of the Bible's historical accuracy are not Christians - but agnostic scholars who allow the archaeological evidence to speak for itself. Tribelhorn contends that God never intended for faith to be 'blind' ... but to include logical reasoning and historical evidence as part of the equation. The compelling defense he presents here has the power to change your life - and, if you already have doubts, to salvage your faith.

Epic hero, relentless anomaly . . . Ernest T. "Bull" Adams was the first-ever Rhodes Scholar from Baylor University, but he spent most of his adult years on his knees sifting through the dirt as he unearthed clues about the earliest humans. He was a formidably brilliant lawyer and apt public official, yet he tenderheartedly devoted much of his professional career to representing the down-and-out. Blessed with Herculean physical prowess that earned him his nickname, this gentle giant was most at home while he entranced youngsters from his hometown in Glen Rose, TX, with yarns about his rugged, enigmatic life. A highly contagious illness during young manhood relegated Bull to rambling throughout the Southwest, thus spending lonely years away from loved ones, yet none was more esteemed than this oft-unkempt, unconventional legend who left behind a vast legacy of knowledge through his passion for the ancients. Dr. Jeffery J. Pruitt, whose family along with the rampaging "Bull" shared Central Texas roots near the Paluxy River, artfully unravels the life of this complex creature, whose genius continues to influence others even today. Dr. Pruitt authentically describes this "Bullish" hero who never knew the word quit and who dared to be a different spirit.
