― Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America
1968: The Year That Changed Everything
“From Woodstock to Woke — the year rebellion became
religion, and truth was put on trial.”
“To understand where we are… you have to understand how we got here.”
“Centralization easily destroys
liberty.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville
The battle between freedom and control isn’t coming—it’s already here.
Freedom vs. Control breaks down capitalism, communism, and fascism—revealing how each shapes power, society, and the modern world.
As centralized authority expands, the question becomes clear: who decides—and at what level? The answer is quite clear. You Decide.
Introducing subsidiarity, this concise guide points to a path forward—restoring power to the local, where freedom and responsibility meet.
“The old world is dying…”
— Antonio Gramsci
Antonio Gramsci argued that power isn’t seized overnight—it’s built by reshaping culture.
His strategy: a slow “march through the institutions”—education, media, and government—transforming society from within.
This concise volume traces that century-long march and reveals how it reshaped America’s institutions, morality, and faith.
Direct and unapologetically clear, this book equips readers to see through the noise—and recognize the forces shaping the world today.

The Chair of Peter
Over 25 years ago, I went on a personal hunt for the first church. Over the next 10 years, I searched not knowing where it would lead let alone the result. I didn’t setout to write a book. And, this was my original attempt
The Book That
Started It All
The Church That Emerged
“As Eve was seduced into disobedience to God, so Mary was persuaded into obedience to God…”
Irenaeus c. 170
PLOT
Millions of Christians worldwide long for the return to the first Church. They yearn to walk with the Apostles…and to see things the way they did. Their spirit screams…Where is this First Church? I was one of them.
More than a decade in the making, “The Church that Emerged” has it’s roots steeped in the Evangelical church growth movement where looking for this first Church runs rampant. I set out to hunt it.
This book uncovers the early Church… with it’s roots steeped in the Old. The Church is undeniably identifiable. You’ll see it clearly.
Step by step, the Church comes into view. As each characteristic unfolds, we discover the fulness of the early Church. You’ll see it like the first century disciples saw it.
You’ll discover, like I did, that the first Church was NOT a group of flip-floppin”, potlucking, sheepherding desert wanderers. It was a complex and structured society into which Christ spoke….
And the once-delivered Church that emerged.

PLOT
The Lord said to David…”You shall feed my people Israel…And thou shalt be [chief officer, leader] over Israel.” (2 Samuel 5) David made a covenant with Israel and was anointed to lead them.
In the same way…the Lord said to Simon Peter…Feed My Lambs…Tend My Sheep…Feed My Sheep.” Like David, Peter was anointed as the chief servant of Christ’s bride.
He became Eved Adonai…Servant of the Lord. Christ built His house on the rock as wise men do…the office of Eved Adonai would continually lead His Church. Christ ordained this office.
The Chair of Peter is a concise guide tackling the tough questions about the office of the Papacy. It provides biblically definitive answers to misunderstood views of the office of Eved Adonai, or “Servant of the Lord”.
There's Something About Mary
“As Eve was seduced into disobedience to God, so Mary was persuaded into obedience to God…”
Irenaeus c. 170
PLOT
Gone was the Ark. Jeremiah hid it. The Ark was never seen again. It never came to mind. They didn’t miss it and another one was never built.
God never dwelt in the second Temple. It was void of the Ark. For 600 years, the cloud of God’s presence never descended from on high,
Then, the cloud descended on a young virgin girl from Nazareth. She submitted to the will of God. This transformative woman was to bridge the Old and the New.
She would carry the Word made flesh in her womb. She would carry the Christ.
She became the Ark that carried Christ. She was the Ark of the New Covenant. Her name was Mary.
Salvation Lost
We say we believe…but what is it you believe in. Christ told us what to believe and…it’s much more than you think.
Today’s view of faith threatens your destiny…
Salvation…is Lost
PLOT
Sheila has her own code of ethics. ” I believe in God. I’m not a religious fanatic. I can’t remember the last time I went to church.
My faith has carried me a long way. It’s Sheila-ism. Just my own little voice … It’s just try to love yourself and be gentle with yourself.
You know, I guess, take care of each other. I think He would want us to take care of each other.” Excerpt “Habits of the Heart”
