In Maddison's last visit to the ancient city, she encountered a man. More surprising was what he lacked on his face.... He wore no mask. A hundred years since the Great Disaster and he not only lived beyond infancy, but he breathed the air. No one breathed free air anymore at the risk of dying cancerous and crazed. Nothing of value is free — not the water, not the land, not the food...and certainly not the air.

Imagine being a 14-year-old boy who takes a classmate on a bike ride one spring evening. In the days to follow, the classmate is found dead, and you stand accused of rape and murder. There's no direct physical evidence tying you to the crime, but that doesn't matter. In a lightning-fast trial, you are convicted and sentenced to death. As far as the press and public are concerned, you are guilty and deserve to die. Such was the fate of Steven Truscott, living with his family on an army base in small-town Ontario in 1959.

Born a child of the streets, Ryan Cantril learned early on to fight for his keep, and sometimes just to keep what he earned. Now in his thirties, the self-proclaimed king of the sucker punch, fights to keep the cash he rightfully stole from a powerful crime syndicate - and if he's lucky, his life.

For the successful living of our lives, we must know our God intimately. We must know who He is and how we can be in an active living relationship with Him.

We determined that there is a huge difference between knowing about our God through Religion and our knowing our God experientially, personally and intimately through Relationship.

Together, they settled on the title, Stalking the Wild Asparagus. No one expected that this iconic title would become part of the American language, nor did they anticipate the revival of interest in natural food and in environmental preservation in which this book played a major role. Euell Gibbons became an unlikely celebrity and made many television appearances. Stalking the Wild Asparagus has sold the better part of half a million copies since the original publication, and has been continuously in print since 1962.

The first twenty or so years of our lives we are taught to pursue an education for employment for our chosen income. The Kingdom System teaches us to pursue our designed and created purpose for our successful deployment for a specific outcome. Income is temporary—outcome is forever, eternal. When we pursue our designed purpose as our deployment on the earth, our income and the things we are taught to pursue by the world’s system will be added to us naturally and without the fall out of incorrect motives and desires.

In Kingdomnomics, Lewis will explore the application of the Scriptures's values and principles in our lives, as well as the if/then dynamic to provide better understandings of how to live a Christ-like life and stay in communion with our Creator. The Scriptures, at their core, are about government and governance.
