As Zack Owens waits for his mom to finish work, he passes the time by looking through some old books. When he opens one on the Middle Ages, an odd piece of paper entitled, "The Pledge of Three," falls out. It describes the lives of any three individuals who choose to take, The Pledge. Two of the three lives will be changed forever: one will become wealthy and famous, one will remain the same, and one will die. Zack has never been a believer in a chosen fate-he has spent his life adhering to the notion that his future was in his own hands. Zack's two best friends convince him that the three of them should take The Pledge. Zack Owens once thought he had complete control of his life…now that he's taken The Pledge, he's not so sure.

" Life on the Shoulder is about a journey on many levels. It is one that travels back through time, experiencing the places known and recorded in the pages of history and the journals of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. It is also a journey through the current American west, an area of diverse environments, staggering beauty and powerful natural forces. The landscape also proved to be one of emotional hills and valleys, mountains of elation, pits of exhaustion, prairies of boredom, storms of fear, anger and frustration, and stunning sun flashes of inspiration. "It was a discovery of self and my connection with everything outside of my being. The spiritual lessons taught on this journey made me understand how narrow our scope of life can be, how much energy is wasted on worry, and how, at the moment when we feel we are most alone, we are truly in the company of our most trusted and dependable guides. As a great deal of time was spent literally riding "on the shoulder" of many roads and passing many sights, I, in turn, was passed by many other travelers, be they in cars, trains or logging trucks. The analogy to life became quickly apparent. By living a "life on the shoulder," one allows oneself to step back and permit life's events to unfold naturally, at their own pace, with acceptance and without force. While Lewis and Clark have been credited with exploring the western wilderness, I believe the exploration of the greatest wilderness lies just beneath the skin in the hearts and minds of us all." – Gordon T. Ward

In this “brilliantly researched, bold and imaginative work” of “remarkable integration and synthesis,” doctors Donovan and Joiner Bey “weave the fabric of both religion and science” into a new view of consciousness and reality. In this reality of wholeness and integration, the scientist and the theologian, the physicist and the mystic are equal partners in the journey to discover and explain the “why” behind the scientifically quantified phenomena of life and the physical universe. The issues of causation and reason relative to the development of life, consciousness, identity and self-awareness are addressed through a unifying theory of creation, life and the transformational process of healing. In this unifying theory, both the rigorous science of evolution and the theological concept of “intelligent design” find a home under the same roof.This theory is predicated upon the primary theme of self-realized identity arising from historically antagonistic, yet remarkably parallel paths of revelation. “The verified quantifiable properties of living systems, as described by modern physicists and biologists, are conceptually matched by the ancient discoveries and understandings of philosophers and mystics. The fabric of this 'unified theory of life' is woven from these parallel threads and based on; 1) the mystical traditions and scientific evidence pinpointing consciousness as the fundamental phenomenon (the 'Materia Prima') of life and, 2) the conclusion that the primal driving force of life (its 'raison d'etre') is its 'sacred quest,' as consciousness, for a sense of its own identity i.e., a realization of itself through the experience of itself.” In this quest for self-identity, life finds itself faced with the “uncertainty principle” of free will and the “ordered chaos” of choice.In The Face of Consciousness, doctors Donovan and Joiner Bey have formulated a new perspective on consciousness and its manifestation as life through the synthesis of essential principles from the biological and physical sciences, psychology, philosophy, mythology and various traditional schools of mystical thought (e.g., Kabbalah, Sufism, etc.). In addition, their unified theory of life explains the “why” of creation and defines the transformational process of healing in a way in which, when practically applied to one's life, it can enable one to transcend death and transform illness into greater life.

There Are No Words

Jaxon MacKenzie, a mute, yet secretly literate, 12-year-old girl, discovers a faded newspaper article documenting the greatest train wreck in American history-an event that claimed the life of her grandfather's best friend, Oliver Pack. That night Jaxon is whisked through an old painting in her grandparents' parlor, back to July 1918 in an attempt to prevent the accident. Miraculously, she finds herself able to speak for the first time. Jaxon meets three friends: Sara Hale, Dewey MacKenzie, and Oliver. Soon Jaxon realizes her mission in this world of horse-drawn carts and prejudice is to save Oliver from dying aboard one of the ill-fated passenger cars, filled with young black men on their way to Nashville to work making gun powder for the war effort. With the government's takeover of the railways during World War I, and a calamity of human error, the train cannot be stopped from its fate, and the responsibility of saving Oliver Pack is planted firmly on the shoulders of this remarkable young lady.

The seeds for the Ohio Appalachian Arts Program were sown in 1978 when the Executive Director of the Ohio Arts Council set in motion a plan to develop a Minority Arts Program that included the underserved communities of Appalachia. A coordinator, working with a team of consultants who knew the region and its people, began to identify the artists and organizations and to determine their needs. The idea from the beginning was that the Ohio Arts Council would be a partner with them to build and support a program of the arts that would help restore pride to the area. Through inclusion of works from well-know poets of the Appalachian region and interviews with the individuals involved with the building process, this story traces the evolution from early assessments of talent and needs, through the initiative stage to full program status. Along the path was an encounter with the artists and arts organizations across the Ohio River in West Virginia and the recognition of mutual interests and support that could be gained by their incorporation into the program. Numerous examples of the benefits to artists and arts organizations that have been derived from the Ohio Appalachian Arts Program are documented in the story. After more than twenty-five years, the participants express pride in their accomplishments and hope for the program's future.

"2004 St. Martin’s Press First Traditional Mystery Competition Finalist." Sam Haggard has every reason to believe that his life has run out in the Southern Ohio rust-belt city he calls home. Fired from his job as a security cop and dumped by his wife, he’s about as down as a man can get. Then he is offered the dubious assignment of guarding Crystal Jones, a woman who was at Kent State on May 4, 1970 — a then-radical whose activist husband, Lucifer, disappeared after the shootings, never to be seen again. Through her current fog of pills and alcohol, Crystal swears this dangerous man is alive, and trying to contact her. As Sam is drawn into her story, he finds himself reliving his own past — and also becoming increasingly involved with Crystal’s daughter, Corrie, a tough yet strangely tender representative of a very different generation. When terror strikes on Sam’s watch, he and Corrie find that they, too, are in danger. There is someone out there — someone who holds the answers to the long-buried secrets of Kent State. The kinds of secrets that have cost people their lives — and that now, 25 years later, are just as deadly as they ever were.
