It will help invalidate the denial and illusions they may maintain in the many avenues of affliction, in an age where commitment and integrity are quite often compromised.

This manuscript will help strengthen humanity en masse, because everyone who implements the many ingredients for successful living into their lives will develop an eternal perspective which will branch out into their relationships. It will incite empathy and compassion. 


One-Line Description:

Principles of the Spirit is an enlightening, practical guide to everyday living. 


Purpose:

This manuscript was written to edify those who are in pursuit of a more Christ-like existence. It expounds on works of many of the greatest theologians that have ever lived. The comprehensive ingredients for successful living are precise, accurate and Biblically sound. It explores our most urgent questions - who we are, the purpose of our lives, how we came into this world, where do we go from here, was it evolution or creation, etc. 

Many of the major doctrines of organized Christian churches are transferable across religious lines. This manuscript deciphers many encrypted Bible anecdotes and lessons. It offers common sense guidelines that will help bridge the gap between many Christian faiths and religions without compromise.

Principles of the Spirit has arisen out of a moral quagmire to offer sound spiritual principles and concepts to men, women and young adults who are seeking help in developing, maintaining or teaching strong ethical values.


Description:

This manuscript delves into full-circle awareness: spiritual, physical, mental, emotional and sexual well-being. It explores violation of body temple and God’s universal principles of morality and decency.

Without harping on potential problems, it examines the synergistic effect of the global population aging, global warming, population growth, Hepatitis C (HCV) Hepatitis B (HBV) and the HIV/AIDS pandemic. It offers insight into the spiritual solution of the major medical crisis that is about to take place (but this catastrophic event is a result of sin, which has not stopped).

Whether you are a theologian or a lay person, I know that Principles of the Spirit will be an essential reference in your pursuit of the knowledge of God's will for you, and the power and means to carry that out. Lay people will love the practicality -- theologians will admire the precision and complexity.


Style:

The book is written in a straightforward, common sense style, devoid of religious jargon unwittingly used by many Biblical scholars. While remaining true to the Gospel’s message and goals, it explains in simple, easily understood terms God’s laws and the meaning of many encrypted parables and metaphors.

Each chapter is presented in didactic principles rather than through illustrated stories. This is a powerful straightforward writing style. At times the material is heart-rending and poignant.

Simply put, the book is informative and practical without being preachy. The uplifting effects of deeply held spiritual values is the prevailing perspective of this book.

This unique eclectic manuscript is unparalleled. It has taken more than 12 years of researching and writing, over $15,000.00 and numerous editors to complete this manuscript. Most of the people that have read my work believe that I am an inspired writer. 


Favorable Marketing Features:

Past books sales and media coverage demonstrate that people are extremely interested in and aroused by spiritual experiences. Look at the sales of "Embraced by the Light." (And it was trash.) Bill Wilson, the author of the Alcoholic Anonymous Big Book, was inspired by a spiritual experience.

From the Author:

I never dreamed this is where my writing would take me. I had no idea for the first three years that I was writing a movement. This has been a long and all consuming project. Sometimes I think I feel like Noah must have felt - when he was building the ark. Most people do not have the capacity to understand what we are up against - and what God has me doing.

Most people thought I was wasting my time when I was writing manuscripts for prevention of HIV/AIDS and a manuscript for people with HIV/AIDS in 1988. Today the statistics add up -- pandemic.

Even the movement's most adamant critics must acknowledge that my manuscripts will have a significant impact upon society. A cutting-edge, spiritual power-saw, providing millions of men, women and children with the courage to rip against the watered down status quo concepts of what it means to be a Christian as we enter a new millennium. 

I am now 47 years old. I am a self-educated gerontologist. God has empowered me to be well disciplined. I want to share my experiences and be a positive role model for younger generations. I want to see everybody taking care of themselves and reaping the rewards.

I workout at the gym two or three times a week. I have developed a unique personal system of stretching that is a combination of Pilates, Yoga and Active Isolated Stretching. I focus on stretching and cardiovascular in my workouts, but I also enjoy lifting weights. 

I am also a pro/amateur snowboarder. I am a three time National Champion for my age division for Slopestyle (which is jumping in snowboard parks). I am an avid surfer, inline skater and skin diver.

I will be producing some health and spirituality videos. I also plan on doing seminars with "Friends helping Friends" and "YSCA" (two other programs I have written or adolescents) to educate adolescents about life, health and spirituality. 

People feel that I am a charismatic person. I have been blessed with good looks and the body of a twenty-year-old. I have been doing public speaking for 10 years. People give me the impression that I am a natural for talk radio and television interviews.

My wife Ginger and I live in Dana Point, California.
