Building Health by Design destroys the myth that disease just happens. Dr. Dale Peterson details the known mechanisms that lead to disease and premature aging and explains the steps that can be taken to address them. He goes far beyond the basic recommendations of eat well and exercise (although a common-sense approach to these fundamental factors is given). Set in the context of his own quest for optimum wellness he addresses the four major biochemical causes of disease and premature aging: Free Radical Damage, Inflammation, Loss of Repair Ability, and Mitochondrial decline. He continues by revealing the dangers of electromagnetic chaos in the environment, risks that have be systematically covered up by industry and governmental agencies. He alerts the reader to the need to reset corrupted files in the body's central computer, and he addresses the importance of renewing the mind and becoming a spiritual warrior. He systematically reveals the factors we control that determine our state of health. Finally, he provides a comprehensive plan for obtaining optimum health. Whether you are facing a health challenger or are hoping to avoid the many health challenges that are commonplace in modern society, you will find answers in Building Health by Design!

As the fraternal twin of Deborah (Short) Hall (from Same Kind of Different as Me), I knew her like no one else could. And the inspiring story I share in Our Southern Breeze is like no other story that could be told: From growing up forever in transition as our family moved from one Texas oil camp to another, to cheating in school to try to win the approval of my parents . . . from facing all kinds of abuse of a troubled father as a child, to the disappointment of a failed marriage as an adult . . . from the deep pit of depression to suicide attempts, my life was a series of bad situations, poor choices, and worse consequences. My sister saw this, and after years of estrangement, held out a hand for me to hold . . . once again. It was at the Anaheim Vineyard conference in 1990 that God, through the words of a man, promised to send a southern breeze over Deborah and me. Neither of us could have ever imagined what that would look like and how many people would eventually be touched by it.

The Navel Diaries: How I Lost My Belly Button and Found Myself offers the reader a poignant and humorous view of one woman's journey into maturity. After decades of inhabiting a body with a stunning flat belly and a perfect navel, things changed for the author. The perfect navel was ruined by pneumonia, altered to bulging status by the hacking cough. For some this might not be worth noting, but for the author it was a profound life event. She, like so many others, thought she would be forever young, never planned to feel or be old. It was that moment, that first glimpse of the new, permanent out-ey, that jolted the author into the shocking awareness of the one-way street of life's progression. It was the first signal that youth is fleeting, that it will be replaced by a continuous string of events, all of them verifying that the aging process is well under way. The wit of the book is infused with generational memories and family lore that dovetail into the present. The vivid narratives take the reader along on the journey: from the segregated swimming pool of childhood to the possibility of a new house in a 55+ retirement community, from the oiled, bronzed skin of college to the dermatologist's office, from the days of beehives to the driver's license that falsely depicts a few gray hairs as "Hair: Gray". There are new physical and emotional perspectives every day, and as with any diary, they are faithfully chronicled. There are creaking joints and drooping breasts, an ancient bladder and quirky digestion, questions about usefulness and purpose, commentary about maintaining a youthful stride through parking lots and airports and life. The author investigates the beauty culture from the vantage point of maturity and challenges the cultural stereotypes about aging. Speculative questions include: Must we burden our children with the same old attitudes about getting older? Must we protect them from the actuality of aging? Must we leave our daughters to discover for themselves the resilience of unwanted chin whiskers? The metaphors utilized veer along the continuum from thoughtful to ridiculous to indignant. Sometimes the tale is humorous, sometimes it touches the heart. The perspective is refreshing; the attitude is always positive and passionate. This diary encourages the author and the reader to come to terms with the age that's coming.

"If future editions [of the New Testament] want to aid rather than hinder a reader's understanding of the New Testament, it should be realized that the time is ripe to cause both the verse and chapter divisions to disappear from the text and to be put on the margin in as inconspicuous a place as possible. Every effort must be made to print the text in a way which makes it possible for the units which the author himself had in mind to become apparent." Frank Viola and George Barna quoted von Soden in their book Pagan Christianity? When Dr. Sims read it, she jumped at the chance to do what was recommended, even going one step further. She removed any trace of both chapter and verse intrusion so that the reader might fully embrace the unfolding nature of His Story. It is her hope that many will benefit from this more authentic presentation of the life and times of the coming of our Lord and His work for us, among us, in us, and through us. Viola writes: "Andrea Sims has given the body of Christ a unique and valuable contribution-a chronological New Testament based on the Amplified Version of the Bible. Read this new version and watch the story come to life!" In addition to creating this new version, she is also the author of The Impostor Affect: A Closer Look by a Classic Case and the ghostwriter for Daphene Jones's book, Our Southern Breeze.
