Dear Friends of Faith around the world,
During this time, this season of my life, I am focused on the Global Faith book series to which I committed myself at the beginning of 2010 thereby completing the first book in the series and self publishing it by the end of November the same year: Global Prayers for All People: Various Occasions, Many Faith Traditions. The exciting news this week is that I finally got this book listed on Amazon.com. It is currently available immediately on Kindle, and the print version should be ready for order soon. If you would like to check the listing out on Amazon.com, click on this link: http://tinyurl.com/8xfsqum
I am currently working on the second book of the Global Faith series. I am boldly calling it "Sacred Scriptures" in the new title, not out of presumption or arrogance but out of a strong sense of faith that this book will be considered a sacred text by other people perhaps in my generation and in the generations to come. I believe God's Spirit has poured and flowed through my thoughts, and given me wonderful words to share with the world. All of it is intended in the spirit of peace. While I believe that portions of a spirit of prophecy may be found in the book (such as in the Wisdom and Prophecy section), I refrain though from lifting myself up in claiming to be a prophet to the world, and likewise, as I'll state in the Author's comments, that I don't make claim to a full inspiration in the sense of the Biblical Christian doctrine on the Bible. In the least, it will be a blessed religious read for the world, if only devotionally.
In mentioning my focus on my Global Faith book series during this season of life leads me to the next discussion of: Global Faith Movement and Ministry Verses Global Faith Organization. In 2009 and 2010, I had planned soon to create the non-profit organization to seek funding in support of my Global Prayer efforts (http://globalprayingservants.com/) and the Global Faith book series. I now see it may be another few years before the setting up a nonprofit organization. But the Global Faith Movement and Ministry continues! And I am setting up a business name to publish my books, with the exception of IF I obtain a publisher for book #2.
May you be blessed, may your needs be met, may you deeply sense the Sacred and regularly lift up your prayers to the Source, believing, and may your good dreams comes true!

Have you taken the Global Faith Pledge yet? You'd be surprised. Its so basic and broad, looking for the universals in humanity, such that virtually all people with faith in God could accept. I recommend you to print and sign your pledge and keep it for your own record. I encourage you to email me too to let me know you have taken the pledge.

1. I believe in the innate dignity of every human being, regardless of race
2. I believe in the mutual respect of all human beings regardless of particular creed, faith, religion.
3. I believe in having a basic religious tolerance of all others whose faith or religion may be different from mine.
4. I believe in a freedom of faith that is foremost a spiritual freedom, and the freedom to practice one's own faith, recognizing that some peoples live in countries that restrict their religious freedom in the temporal realm, but blessed are all those who are spiritually free.
5. I believe that each person should seek truth for him or herself, to know it themselves in their own beings, and that they should be free to seek and study in their spiritual journey of life.
6. I feel each person should be guided by their own conscience and not forced to go against their own conscience.
7. I will strive to be moral in my conduct at home and in the community and public. I will strive to do the right thing, and to be an example of good living to my family, to young people, and before the community.
