Recent release ‘Gifts Opened and Shared: Along the Paths of Life’ from Covenant Books author Donald Spatafora is an eye-opening account exploring how the author’s life and others have been impacted by embracing the gifts given to them by God. Through sharing his personal experiences, Spatafora encourages readers to discover what unique talents God has granted them and share them with the world.

WAKE VILLAGE, Texas – November 22, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Donald Spatafora, who in retirement finally answered God’s call to write, has completed his new book, “Gifts Opened and Shared: Along the Paths of Life”: a stirring memoir that explores the gifts and blessings granted to the author throughout his life after reconnecting with and refocusing his attention on the Lord.

“Life’s journey is not always smooth and straight,” writes Spatafora. “Sometimes we experience a path that is anything but. Unexpected disappointments cause us to make wrong choices, and we are led down a path that sometimes leads us to self-destruct.

“At times, our path is smooth, and by all appearances, we seem to have it all together. Everything we do seems to turn out good and to our advantage. We are only fooling ourselves.

“My journey has been and continues to be full of ups and downs. There have been times when I have been taken so far out of my comfort zone that I know only God could have been holding me up and directing me.”

Spatafora continues, “Each of our lives are testimonies; gifts to be shared with others. God does not want us to leave them sitting on a shelf unwrapped. He wants each of you reading this book to unwrap your gifts and share them with others just as I have done. You will be surprised at the number of people touched by them. Many lives may even be changed.

“As you read these times when the power of prayer helped me and others, it is my hope you will receive an uplifting word that will speak to your heart and keep you on the right path as you share your gifts. Power is released through testimonies, and this book is my testimony to those reading it.”

Donald Spatafora’s new book is a thought-provoking read that reveals it is never too late to turn towards God and strengthen one’s bond with him. Through sharing his life’s story, Spatafora crafts an expertly paced testament to the goodness one can do when one embraces their gifts from the Lord.

Readers can purchase “Gifts Opened and Shared: Along the Paths of Life” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Author Donald Spatafora’s New Book ‘Gifts Opened and Shared: Along the Paths of Life’ is a Powerful Faith-Based Read on Embracing One’s God-Given Gifts in Life

REDMOND, Wash. – November 22, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Fulton Books author Dennis Montgomery, who was a pastor and missionary to Hawaii and Alaska for 17 years, has completed his most recent book “The Blessings of God’s Grace”: a faith-based read that invites readers to embark on a spiritual journey to realize God’s graces through Scripture.

“The truths of God’s grace, or doctrines of grace, aren’t recent truths,” writes Montgomery. “They are in the Old Testament. They are bursts of divine sunlight in the New Testament. They spill out from the lips of Jesus. They are at the very core of the Apostles’ writings. They penetrate church history. They are in the writings of Augustine, John Calvin, Jonathan Edwards, Charles Spurgeon—to name a few. 

“This book isn’t a formal presentation about the truths of God’s grace. Any formal book I might author in the subject would not do justice to the subject so aptly written by theologians past and present. I have written this book to simply relate how the truths of God’s grace affect my life. I need to emphasize, however, that my experience doesn’t make the truths of God’s grace true—the Old and New Testaments do. Jesus prayed to the Father: ‘Your word is truth’ (John 17:17).

“Although there are, essentially, five truths of God’s grace taught in the Bible, there is also a sixth truth: God’s grace is practical (how they affect my personal life).

“My prayer for the readers is for them to discover and experience the blessings of the truths of God’s grace as I have.”

Published by Fulton Books, Dennis Montgomery’s book is a thorough analysis of key passages from the Bible that display God’s grace and infinite wisdom for those willing to seek it out. Montgomery shares his own personal experiences to help enlighten readers on how they can discover God’s messages and light through His written word.

Readers who wish to experience this stirring work can purchase “The Blessings of God’s Grace” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.

Dennis Montgomery’s New Book ‘The Blessings of God’s Grace’ is an Eye-Opening Look at Several Biblical Passages That Reveal God’s Grace and Love for All His Children

MONTVALE, N.J. – November 22, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Fulton Books author Anthony Salerno Jr., who was born and raised in New York City and worked in the entertainment industry for 50 years, serving as a producer, creative director, and director for shows and events around the world, has completed his most recent book “15 Minutes with Fame: 50 Years Among the Stars”: a fascinating memoir that follows the author’s career and the interactions he experienced with various celebrities.

“It’s showtime, and I’m the outwardly cool, inwardly nerve-racked person responsible for everything going right and the audience responding with massive applause and cheers of approval at the end,” writes Salerno. “I’m a professional producer—a hired gun—a show guy who knows all the parts and people necessary to create, develop, and produce any kind of theatrical production. For most of fifty years, production companies, corporations, associations and individuals have been hiring me to make their concerts, television programs, stadium spectaculars, special events, and corporate shows successful realities. And before I was a producer, I was learning my craft by doing almost every entertainment production job on the ladder, from page and gofer through writer, director, and executive producer.

“In those fifty years, I was privileged to work with some of the biggest names in show business, politics, and sports—Frank Sinatra, John Lennon, Lucille Ball, George Bush, Muhammad Ali, Liza Minnelli, and hundreds more. Some were childhood heroes of mine, some just a voice on the radio, or a name in a newspaper, but all added to the texture, color, and fabric of my professional life.”

Salerno continues, “In writing this memoir, thinking about one person or experience would often lead me to recall someone—or something—else from the distant past, which I would realize I had not thought about, or even remembered, since the day it actually happened. Obviously, I don’t remember everyone on every show I ever did; many were just names on a rundown that were handled by talent coordinators, stage managers, or other show executives. But an unexpected benefit of writing this all down has been that it has become quite a journey of rediscovery; a chance to relive special moments.”

Published by Fulton Books, Anthony Salerno Jr.’s book is a stunning behind-the-scenes look at the entertainment industry and the incredible moments experienced by the author through his work. Readers will discover a personal and intimate memoir that will bring to life some of their favorite stars as they take a walk with Salerno down memory lane.

Readers who wish to experience this enthralling work can purchase “15 Minutes with Fame: 50 Years Among the Stars” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.
