TOO LATE IN THE AFTERNOON: One Man's Triumph Over Depression is a story, much like a parable, that follows Mitch Jasper through recovery from depression, reconciliation with his family, redemption with his God, and restoration to a life of meaning and purpose. It is a must read for anyone associated with depression in any way, looking to bring meaning to retirement, or needing to reconcile a fractured relationship.      Too Late in the Afternoon is the engaging tale of an intelligent, lonely, divorced middle-aged man (Mitch) living through a serious depression that begins when he retires to a city (Minneapolis) that he has not lived in for 40 years.   The story follows Mitch for two years as he seeks help for his depression through medical, psychological and spiritual paths. The insights which Mitch gains about his own fluctuating moods, and the vivid descriptions of what life is like for a depressed person, present some of the most memorable passages.   I can enthusiastically commend this book to those suffering from depression - as well as those who love and care for them. It is a reflective, thoughtful, and credible therapeutic story.  Philip K. Olson, M.D. (retired)  Georgetown, Texas     Too Late In The Afternoon is a compelling story that takes you on Mitch Jasper's healing journey through the struggles of depression. Even though Mitch has been successful in many ways, in his mid-fifties he comes face to face with his past and how it is affecting his "present." This journey incorporates more than the clinical prescriptions such as counseling, medications, taking personal responsibility, self-care, making amends, and "getting and having a life."   While these prescriptions are crucial, Too Late In The Afternoon will point you to the deeper themes of confession, relational friendships, forgiveness, reconciliation, grace, mercy and transparency....themes that reflect and embody the life we are called to live....themes that have the power to bring us back into alignment, healing and true living. At most, this is a wonderful and powerful story that reveals the timeless themes of salvation and redemption.   This book is a must-read for those who have encountered or are dealing with depression in any way....personal, family, friend or professional.  Van T. Langeland, MS  Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marital and Family Therapist  Cary, North Carolina    Too Late in the Afternoon dramatically depicts the transforming power of friendships. Mitch Jasper is not capable of escaping his depression on his own, so God brings about his transformation through other people - Dave Logan, Daniel, Mitch's family, and others.  "Unforgiveness" is a poison contributing to Mitch's depression. Through essential people brought into Mitch's life, God shows him the power of forgiveness and the freedom it brings. Once Mitch forgives and is forgiven, he is able to bless others, even while he is still wounded.    This book is a great inspiration for anyone who has been hurt deeply and has had a hard time forgiving.   Finally, I appreciate how salvation is shown as a process. God pursues us and calls us to Himself, but He gives us time to respond to Him.  Rev. Christian Ruch  Pastor, Church of the Cross  Hopkins, Minnesota

Patrick Day, a Gideon with a jail and prison ministry has written HOW TO STAY OUT OF JAIL for his visits to county jails, state prisons, and rehabilitation centers like Adult and Teen Challenge. He gives them out at no cost to inmates, prisoners, and clients in these facilities following a one-hour presentation. The books are paid for by donations to a local church in Buffalo, Minnesota, so they qualify as a 501c3 tax deductible contribution. If you are purchasing these books for your own jail or prison ministry, you can do a similar thing, if you choose. The book is 42-pages in length in an 81/2 by 11 format, with illustrations by Myron Sahlberg, an acclaimed artist on the national scene. It is written in simple language and Scripture verses are taken from The Message, which is an everyday-language translation easily understood by those for whom the Bible may or may not be familiar. HOW TO STAY OUT OF JAIL offers hope to the hopeless and freedom to those who have been confined, some of them more times than they can remember. The message throughout the book is that there are choices to be made - going God's way or the way of the world and the self-centered self. Their own ways and the pattern of the world is what sends them back to jail or prison or rehab centers. God's way is the best way, sometimes the only way, to stop the cycle of recidivism. Most of these men and women are visual learners, so the book is full of lively metaphors (like parables) that illustrate why even born-again Christians keep coming back to jail. Illustrations in each chapter help show in picture form the messages delivered by Mr. Day in his presentations. If you want more information about Mr. Day's presentations and how to get into jails, prisons, or rehab centers for presentations of your own, you can contact him at: patrickday@pyramidpublishers.com.

Addiction & Recovery

Battling Spiritual Warfare

This book is written by a chaplain who speaks to groups of men and women in jails and drug rehabilitation centers, and who meets individually with inmates, addicts, and those caught up in the darkness of depression, anxiety, excessive worrying, and destructive behaviors. Being addicted to alcohol or drugs results in darkness...as does a life of excessive worrying, depression, anxiety, or destructive behaviors. You've tried to overcome the darkness on your own, but it hasn't worked. This book shows you seven steps to let the light of Jesus Christ penetrate your darkness and turn your life from night into day. Darkness and light fight over every square inch of mental and physical territory on this earth. The darkness originates from the fallen world, led by the prince of darkness. The light proceeds from the Kingdom of God, ruled by Jesus Christ, the true light. Make no mistake! Everything in your life hinges on whether you align yourself with the darkness or the light. The men and women in this book are all real people with real problems, impacted by Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for their sins 20 centuries ago. I have personally interacted with all of them over extended periods of times. I have changed their names and enough of the details so only they would be able to recognize themselves.

"Late September was still warm as the Minnesota Volunteers under the command of Henry Sibley set up camp on the shores of Battle Lake." Thus starts the story of how events in Minnesota history have shaped John Homme's family history. John owns a farm within the floodplain of the Minnesota River and has interacted with that beautiful river for over 70 years. Within this book, John shares interesting stories about the history of the river, its various moods, and how it effects plants, animals and people. The stories of his family and personal history allow the reader to experience the river's influence on its surroundings. John is a retired science teacher and media specialist who currently lives in Rochester, Minnesota, with his wife Martha. He still gets to the farm about four times a year even though it is about a 400-mile round trip. These trips usually are for hunting, fishing, fellowship, time with grandkids, or picking wild fruit to make jellies.
