Scranton, PA, May 30, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– “Inspirations for Faith”: a helpful resource for learning to understand God’s word. “Inspirations for Faith” is the creation of published author Rev. Wayne K. Shontz Jr, a graduate of San Francisco Theological Seminary who was ordained in the United Church of Christ in 1954. He served as a director of Student Christian Fellowship House in Salt Lake City, Utah, and then in churches in Blackstone, Massachusetts; Jackson, Michigan; Leominster, Massachusetts; Newport, Ellsworth Falls, and Weld, Maine, retired in 2011 while serving in two churches in Plains and West Pittston, Pennsylvania before his passing in 2017.

Rev. Shontz shares, “During his years in ministry Wayne shared his deep and abiding faith with his congregations thru poems, sermons and weekly newsletters. Many times he wrote about his love of the natural world and God’s creation of it. These feelings were strengthened by his many hiking and camping trips in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. He expresses his feelings in the ‘God’s Natural Order and Symbolic action poems.’ Wayne wanted to give others a sense of how faith could become a reality in their lives through an understanding of biblical events such as the Holy week series and how vital faith is when faced with personal loss, as in the poem ‘Moments of Acceptance’ May your faith be strengthened and renewed by these words.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Rev. Wayne K. Shontz Jr’s new book shares an articulate guide to living in active faith.

Consumers can purchase “Inspirations for Faith” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

Author Daniel Rester Sr. Pairs Personal Testimony with Scripture in New Book “Chronicles of Theophilos”

Author Daniel Rester Sr. Pairs Personal Testimony with Scripture in New Book “Chronicles of Theophilos”

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Daniel Rester Sr. has published a new book, "Chronicles of Theophilos," through Covenant Books, pairing his own life story with biblical scripture to make a case for what he describes as God’s sovereignty over the course of a life.

The book draws on decades of the author’s personal experience, structuring itself around his own trials and what he describes as his emergence from them strengthened by faith. Rather than a straightforward devotional or commentary, the book works by setting his life story alongside scripture passage by passage, using that contrast to argue for the relevance of biblical teaching to ordinary circumstances.

The book’s central theme is surrender: it frames faith, repentance, and obedience to Jesus Christ as the path to what Rester calls renewal and spiritual transformation. It’s aimed partly at readers going through hardship, offering what the publisher describes as encouragement grounded in the idea of steadfast divine love, and partly at readers unfamiliar with Christian faith who might encounter the book as an entry point.

According to the publisher’s announcement, Rester stated: "My prayer is that readers will recognize God’s hand in their own stories and experience the liberating power that comes from surrendering to His sovereign will."

"Chronicles of Theophilos" is available through bookstores and online via Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble, as well as through Covenant Books directly. Covenant Books, based in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, publishes Christian-market titles across genres.

New Book from Author Lance M. Lebray Argues Food Struggles Are a Spiritual Issue, Not a Dietary One

New Book from Author Lance M. Lebray Argues Food Struggles Are a Spiritual Issue, Not a Dietary One

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Lance M. Lebray has published a new book, "Eat The Gospel," which argues that the key to lasting change in a person’s eating habits is spiritual rather than dietary. The book is available now through Covenant Books, in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.

According to the book’s description, Lebray starts from a familiar frustration: people cycle through new foods, new recipes, new chefs, and new workout routines without getting the results they want. His answer is that the problem isn’t a person’s plate, but their heart. The book argues that a person’s relationship with food improves as a byproduct of deepening their relationship with God, rather than through diet changes pursued on their own.

Lebray draws on his own faith background and his reading of Scripture to make that case, framing physical wellness and spiritual growth as connected rather than separate pursuits. "My greatest hope is that readers will stop looking outward for solutions and instead turn inward to discover what God’s Word has always offered," Lebray said in announcing the release.

The work enters a growing category of Christian wellness literature positioning dietary practices within a spiritual framework rather than a purely physical one. "Eat The Gospel" is published through Covenant Books, a Christian publishing house based in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.

Studio CarryOnHarry will be curious to see whether Lebray’s framework offers readers concrete practices, or stays at the level of spiritual reorientation — that distinction tends to determine whether faith-based wellness books find a lasting readership beyond their initial release.
