Life has gotten a little boring for Elmer Gilhooley. He hates his job as a process server and he’s so bad at it that he gets fired and rehired monthly when his employers are chronically unable to find a replacement. For a hobby, Elmer has taken to poaching wolves to annoy the local game warden, but so far the response isn’t what he’d hoped for. It looks as if Elmer may never have any fun again until a chance to resume his old job as a bounty hunter comes along.

Elmer Gilhooley has everything a guy could want. At just over thirty he’s retired and living off an ill-gotten windfall that he came into at his last job as a bounty hunter. He has a nice little house, a huge gun collection and plenty of time on his hands to enjoy both. His only problem is utter boredom and a longing for the sense of purpose and excitement that he used to know. When Elmer’s former boss lands him a new job to break up the monotony things get real interesting again, real quick.

The real value of money is not to buy more things, it’s to “buy” more time to spend with people and on activities we cherish most. Time is the most used word in the English language, its meaning so obvious, until we try to explain it. By listening to this book, you will learn how science has revealed the true nature of time, how to understand it, value it, and experience more of it.

A persistent dumbing down of religious faith and the perception that science is the only path to truth are key reasons the Nones, those with no religious affiliation, represent nearly fifty percent of all young adults in America today. God and science are falsely portrayed as conflicted and innately incompatible. Afraid to offend this new status quo, and unable to defend religious beliefs against increasingly aggressive intellectual bullying, the young have flocked to the safety of no belief.

Drawing from decades of experience and a biblical worldview, the Templetons demonstrate that true prosperity isn't just about money—it's about creating a legacy of purpose, peace, and contentment that spans generations.

Newspaper headlines and prime-time TV interviews lauded Enrique Peña Nieto after he won Mexico’s 2012 presidential election. Time Magazine front covered him as “The Savior of Mexico.” By the second year of his administration it had become obvious that the savior was a failure.
