What Makes One A Good Christian
Not the grand hymn sung in the vaulted nave, Nor the candle flickering bright and brave, But the whisper of love that none can see, A heart that bends to the lowly and free.

The Chosen One - a Tribute To Prophet Muhammad
Muhammad, chosen by Allah to lead, A humble man with a heart full of creed, His words, a guide to all in need, A mercy to mankind, indeed. In the land of Arabia, he was born, A light of guidance, a hope forlorn, To worship the one God, he did adorn, And from idolatry, he did scorn. His teachings spread like wildfire, His message...

Chapter One a New Beginning

Yours shining with the kindness of joy and...

GUNSHOT WOUND TO THE HEART From a two-room schoolhouse high on a hill over the Fundy Bay, I sat at an old wooden desk daydreaming. The ink stains and etchings which were dug deep into its surface had captured my imagination as they had so many times before. It was a breeze that came through...
