When Elias Cardoza gets a shot at the world heavyweight title, nobody expects him to win. He's an underdog who has landed this fight by pure luck. But this fighter from the mean streets of Chicago is determined to prove everyone wrong. Harper Lindstrom, a journalist from the local paper, has to shadow him for a month. She's out of her depth in the dirty boxing gym with her manicured nails and perfect hair trying to cover a story in which she has no real interest. Eli despises her on sight. He doesn't need this Princess snooping around the edges of his life, prying into the past he is trying to erase. She's a distraction he can do without. He wants the belt, and she wants the story. What will it be? The Wrath of Eli is a standalone enemies-to-lovers contemporary romance about a broken man and the power of love. It is Book 1 in The Seven Sins, a seven book series of steamy, angsty and emotional stories about a group of characters who are loosely connected.

Cool. Dismissive. Emotionally unavailable. That's who Luke Hunter is. Experience has taught him that being detached and not getting close to anyone are the only ways to survive.

Mobility restricted, he turned his attention toward a lifetime desire: to write tales of truth, justice, and faith trapped in historical timenot only as a preacher but also as a witness. ELI is a historical fiction adventure (wrapped in religious motif threads) that captures Dr. Weagleys inclination toward freedom, justice, pride, and hope that plates eternal salvation. Currently in retirement, Dr. Weagley enjoys writing tales of truth shielded in historical fiction in order to communicate the wisdom and blessings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Adventure, religion, and social behavior options fill the pages of his work as he tries to build palatable messages around characters that have suffered collateral damage in life situations. Time and circumstance meet patience and faith in his works. Good and bad options bombard and abound confusing the imbalance of honor.

Towards the end of 2019, I started to feel that the Lord, our God, had had enough of the stubborn and stiff necked people as their wickedness, rebellion, and disobedience continued against him and his son. These actions were a resemblance of the days of Noah, Sodom, Gomorrah, and Nineveh. I felt that Jesus, the son of God, no longer had a home here on Earth. There was no place for him in homes, playgrounds, workplaces, and sadly, no home in the churches that worshipped his holy name. I witnessed the wrath of God against Satan, beginning with the apocalyptic fires in Australia that killed millions of animals and destroyed the beautiful land. I began to warn the world through my posts starting on January 5, 2020. I knew his wrath would continue, this time by way of an apocalyptic pandemic that would kill thousands of people. I began to dream about the looming crisis and started to share with the world through my social media. I decided to write my first post on January 30, 2020 relating to the pandemic, calling for a worldwide chain of prayer. I knew the Coronavirus pandemic could not be treated and that many casualties could be expected. I could feel that God was angry while Satan was elated at the state of our world. Following my posts in January of 2020, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic began evolving. I continued to cry out to the world, but was attacked, mocked, and threatened as people accused me of spreading rumors. I was told to stop, as people said, “This virus is nothing. It’s just another flu.” Others said, “You’re supposed to be a scientist and should know that the seasonal flu takes the lives of thousands every year. This Coronavirus is no threat.” I wished that they all would see what I see and hear what I hear, but few did. I decided to record all of my thoughts, dreams, nightmares, prayers, reflections, and predictions about this dangerous and lethal pandemic that the world was trying to dismiss. This book consists of 73 chapters across under ten sections, contain all of my posts in the order that they were written as well as my notes regarding what I have seen beginning in January 2020 until now, including my thoughts on the post-pandemic era. Some of my predictions have already occurred while others have yet to be seen. I believe that the message we should receive from all of this is that the world must look to our God, the almighty, and his son, Jesus, our Savior. The son shall return and God will lift his wrath as we all go through our journey of repentance here on earth for our salvation lies with the blood of Jesus. Only recently I have started to receive calls in which the people that doubted me have apologized that they did not listen sooner. They have seen that I knew what was coming and tried to warn them. While the Coronavirus pandemic continues, I pray that the Lord will have mercy upon our people and upon the face of the earth.

Ten-year-old Eli Hawkins watches from his hiding place in a creek bed as his parents are massacred by Paiute Indians and Mormon militia at Mountain Meadows, Utah; his six-year-old sister is taken by the marauders. The massacre, a black mark in Mormon history, is not talked about and almost buried until it is learned that one of the potential victims escaped the tragedy and is seeking revenge, as well as the whereabouts of one of the infant survivors. As Eli continues his quest to locate his sister, he opens the wounds of denial and potentially exposes the Mormon participants in the massacre. Framed by the second largest silver strike in Pioche, Nevada, the Mormons, the miners, and the Paiutes play an integral role in this tragic incident and in the history of southern Utah, eastern Nevada, and northern Arizona.

In the last few years, God has been sending messages to the world. The messages included every aspect of our living - salvation, worship, marriage, daily living. Those messages have included: God Chasers (Tommy Tenney), The Prayer of Jabez and Secrets of the Vine (Bruce Wilkinson), The Passion of the Christ (Mel Gibson), The Rebirth of Kirk Franklin (Kirk Franklin), Purpose-Driven Life (Rick Warren), Flywheel, Facing the Giants and Fireproof (Sherwood Church), Woman Thou Art Loosed, Spellbreaker (TD Jakes), Jesus (Shekinah Glory) and now The Book of Eli. God has used everyone from the conservative to the Charismatic to the Catholic to the cavalier to get His message across. So that we are without excuse.

Eli Black was the immigrant rabbi-turned-CEO who transformed the notoriously corrupt United Fruit into a model of ethical business. Then he died by suicide. How did it all go wrong? Matt Garcia traces Black’s own descent into corruption and despair—the unraveling, and the deliberate forgetting, of one of America’s most enigmatic business leaders.

WHAT IF ITS TRUE? What if its true? What if the whole world is being misled into believing a lie? What if Caesar and the names she instilled were meant to divert attention from God? What if the cross that men and women bow before and honor is considered a graven image? What if honoring the dead by bowing down before the image of the headstone is considered being disobedient to the command of God? What if its true? What if God only gave a name to one day for a reason? What if the other names of days were given by man to support worshipping other gods? What if Sunday was named to worship the sun as a god? What if Monday was named to give praise to the moon? What if Tuesday was named to give praise to Mars, who is known as the god of war? What if Wednesday (wodens day) was named to give praise to Mercury? What if Thursday (thors day) was named to give honor to the god Thor? What if Friday was named to give honor to the goddess Venus? What if Saturday was named to give praise to Saturn? What if the whole world remembers the days of the week at the times they were intended, but forgets to remember the Sabbath at its appointed time? What if its true?

THE YEARNING OF YAHVEH In terms of man’s morality, the Old Testament is an account of tragic failure. Israel strayed repeatedly from the path mapped out by God, and He corrected them repeatedly with tough-love discipline. From the viewpoint of God’s love, the Old Testament is a journal of immense compassion. Despite Israel’s failures, God kept yearning for their genuine trust and love. He refused to give up on them and called them back by His prophets who relentlessly declared, “Thus says the LORD.” The LORD is a translation of the Hebrew name Yahveh, God’s personal name He revealed to Moses at the burning bush. The Yearning of Yahveh takes the reader on an exciting one-page-per-day journey through the Old Testament. Join the tour and discover the gospel in the scrolls of Hebrew Scripture.
