Major James Lide Coker of Hartsville, South Carolina was a gutsy man of God and an entrepreneurial genius who founded 20 successful businesses. He grew up in the Old South, but became one of the most forward-thinking leaders of the New South. His business odyssey alone makes a fascinating story, but his expansive heart and keen intellect reached well beyond commerce. He was a passionate leader of the Christian faith, a pace-setter in women’s education, and a progressive in race relations. Ahead of his times in every way, he concluded his own book on the Civil War with these words: “There is one great result of the war between the States for which we are truly thankful: slavery is abolished.” Though high-born, he and his family were brought low. In the Civil War, he bravely defended his homeland, fighting with Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson in Virginia, where his brother was killed. In Tennessee, James’s left thigh was shattered at the Battle of Lookout Mountain, and he became a prisoner of war. Delirious with pain, he had several harrowing escapes from death before finally returning home to Sherman-devastated South Carolina. He had lost almost everything, including the use of a leg. But with extraordinary valor, he rose up with a crutch and a hoe to re-establish his farm, and went on to lead the economic, educational, and spiritual rebound of his region in a time of crisis and carpetbaggers. James became the wealthiest man in South Carolina, yet remained humble and down to earth. His war agonies and innate sensitivity to human need enabled him to identify with the harshest realities of the human condition and with the plight of the disenfranchised. When his ingenious and diligent post-war initiatives brought him rivers of prosperity, he let them flow through him to bless countless others in his rural state. A deeply spiritual man, Major Coker also faithfully taught the boys’ Sunday School for thirty-eight years. Today, we have too few leaders of genuine integrity. We need more like the Major – rock solid, gallant, far-sighted, and good to the core! For the benefit of present and future generations, his inspiring story, with fresh perspectives and previously unpublished material, is retold in Dr. Joslin’s unique style, blending biography, daring adventure, courageous faith, and the drama of American history.

For thirty years, Jesus lived an obscure life in Nazareth. With few exceptions, there is little known about this time period. I have taken the liberty to contemplate what those years were like for Jesus and His parents. How did His birth affect Mary and Joseph? What was everyday life like in this little town in Galilee? Did Jesus have any friends, did He go to school, and did Joseph teach Him to be a carpenter? What was His relationship with these two loving parents who must have wondered where all of this was going? This is a work of fiction but it is also a spiritual journey for me and I hope for you. Spend some time contemplating The Greatest Story Never Told. It may move you as much as it did me in writing it.

During high school, band geek Dave Tripiciano had few girlfriends, and was teased and bullied by his classmates and even his gym teacher. In an effort to prove himself, and win the respect of others, he practiced three hours a day to become an accomplished musician, and then went on to study music in college. When the coeds began to notice him, he discovered another way to impress the girls, and became quite the ladies man. Married while still in college, he played in a band for extra money, but that made it easy to flirt with and meet attractive women. As he matured and settled down, he became a faithful husband, the father of three and a school band director. But the need to “prove himself” and impress people still drove him. Becoming a self-centered workaholic, he focused mainly on his career and his hobbies, until the tragic morning that he and his children found his wife dying in a wrecked car on their way to school. Soon after her death, he also learned that due to his selfishness, she had turned elsewhere for attention and had been having an affair with another man for several years. Devastated and realizing how badly he had failed as both a husband and a father, he gave up his career as a high school band director and began to devote his life and his gifts to serving God and others. He met and married a young widow with two small children who lost her husband in a plane crash. Since then he has started an outreach ministry for men and several Christian school band programs that include home schoolers. He has also authored two books and produces Christian videos.

An assemblage of cousins from various states, who are close and meet every year for their annual vacation, like to have fun and go to places they have never seen before. Last year their vacation together had some unforeseen adventures they didn’t anticipate, so they were looking forward to a quiet and relaxing vacation together in a rustic cabin in the beautiful Missouri mountains. The lady at the registration desk and another lady tried to scare them away from their cabin, but these ladies were strong and wouldn’t back down to any situation, so they traveled on toward their cabin and fell in love with it immediately. The registration ladies told them a wild tale of their cabin being one that Jesse James had slept in a long time ago and that he had hidden some money somewhere in that very cabin, and sometimes others would want to try to find it. All this didn’t faze the strong women who were wanting a place to relax with their favorite cousins. They meet a variety of colorful characters along the way that would be hard for people to believe if they told them. Some of these characters were good and others not so good, leading the cabin ladies to have to do things they had rather not do to survive. Not all the vacation was bad. They had good times along with the bad. The cousins were close and would stick together no matter what came their way. The lady at registration was correct when she said some people would do anything for money, and they did.
