What can I do? by Donna Mills
Elephant had never bounced like that. He never heard of an elephant acrobat. He bent his knees and up he sprung, But down he fell and bit his tongue.
And so Elephant said to the crew ‘What can I do?’

My Heart, Christ’s Home by Patricia Adderley
My Heart, Christ’s Home: 100 Days of Joy and Strength in Jesus by Patricia Adderley
My Heart, Christ’s Home is a collection of 100 poems and the scriptures they were based on. God lives inside each one of us, if we’ve accepted Him as our Savior. However, Salvation is only the beginning of a lifelong journey. Throughout our lives, we will face trials of many kinds. We have to deal with loss and grief, fear, faith, or questions of identity just to name a few.
We ask ourselves things like “Does God really know me?”, “Who did God create me to be?” or “Is there more to life than this job?”.
We hide things about ourselves from other people and, especially, from God. We are afraid that if they found out who we really are we might be rejected. Whether warranted or not, we feel shame for our past actions, feelings, and thoughts.
I don’t know about you, but it’ a constant process to turn over those hidden parts of my heart and mind to God. This life is only the beginning of all that God has for us. He has a purpose for each one of us. Additionally, He wants access to every part of our lives- where we work, where we live and eat, the bedroom and the closets where we hide things. Everything.
How many of us accept His gift of salvation and then never really take time to pursue a deeper relationship with Him? We can trust Him with every part of our lives- good or bad. That’s part of what the Psalms are about. These are moments where David cried out to God. He confessed his sins, expressed his doubts and fears, and his faith in God. He worshipped God and praised Him.
That’s what this collection of 100 poems are about also. They are moments in time where I asked God many of the questions I listed here and more. As I take time to be with Him and listen to Him, He fills me with His peace. I and rest from my anxious thoughts. He shows me who He created me to be and He gives me strength. Mo matter what the circumstances, He fills me with unspeakable joy.
He can do the same for you as well. As you read this, I encourage you to take time to listen to God. My hope is that this book will be a resources that can help you draw closer to God. He has great plans for your live, even if at moments it doesn’t seem like it. He just wants to be with you. He wants you to turn to Him with all of your prayers, thoughts, hopes and dreams. He’s waiting.

Islanders: The Pacific Chronicles by James Eldridge
Islanders: The Pacific Chronicles by James Eldridge
Written by two brothers who grew up in Hawaii, “Islanders” will take you on a whirlwind adventure through the culture, lore, humor, plants and native species of O’ahu!
Find out what the magic abilities eleven-year-old Kilikina and her brother, fourteen-year-old Kaimana are gifted with as they are unknowingly given access to a hidden and legendary world in their native O’ahu in the Hawaiian islands.
From the Author
This book was written and illustrated as the first installment of an original epic story by two brothers who grew up on the Big Island running around Waikoloa, Waimea, Honoka’a and Mililani barefoot.
We built tree forts, slid down grassy hills on cardboard, caught tadpoles and frogs, explored coral reefs and lava tubes, and pretended there were Menehune among us that only we could see.
While this is a work of fiction, we proudly reference locations, people and creatures from Hawaiian legends and mythology out of respect for the brightly colorful history the culture has to offer. We encourage you to look into the real-life works themselves: Hawaii has a treasure trove of tales that are fascinating and will enrich your mind.

Mythion: Human Transformation by Jason Davis
Mythion: Human Transformation by Jason Davis
The first thing to bleed through to his awareness was heat, on his face, his chest, knees. Felt good to breathe it. Next the crackle of a fire registered as something he knew, his imagination rendering the scene from the fragments of its familiarity. The pine smoke, the wafting snake of it, led him into other frames of his life tumbling in, drawing him toward wakefulness.
It seemed time to force open his eyes, but he realized they were already open. They stung and were dry and he couldn’t blink. The fire crackled off to the left, set against a rocky wall, its smoke drifting out the opening. It was all yellow and marred and smeared in here, firelight dancing across the jagged rocks.
I’m in the cave.
Shards of fear sliced into his chest, cold, icy cold. Why did he feel so…light, and why was everything moving? Even the solid rock wall and boulders inside just warbled and wavered. He studied it all almost clinically, eyes dilated to black, trying to figure out why everything was so weird. He thought he might sit up, but he couldn’t, couldn’t move a muscle, igniting an ember of panic.
Then he noticed something stuck in his mouth, between the gum and cheek. It was nasty. He went to reach for it, but he couldn’t move his arm, and he didn’t have the muscle control to spit it out.
Where’s Daddy?
His chest sent a pulse of air up through his windpipe to call out for him, but it was a quiet “garuhhhh” instead, like a wounded animal. The panic took another notch up. His body struggled to move, but he couldn’t even flinch.
What’s wrong with me? Daddy! I’ve been captured!
Gavin’s eyes peered down and saw he was completely wrapped in burlap with pine boughs, grasses, and leaves weaved in, like a cocoon with plants poking out of it. Panic gave way to raw fear, his white eyes flicking here, there, up, down, taking more and more in. He realized his encasement was set in that old wicker chair he found. The cave opening was a black, jagged, oval void set in the firelit rock.
