New Book Release: Chasing the American Dream

Chasing the American Dream: The Story of Reyes Holdings from 1976-2026 by Jim Auchmutey

It started on a dining room table, where a father and his sons ran the numbers for a business they were considering getting into. They figured revenues and expenses and potential for growth, working it all up manually on handheld calculators, until they decided that it all made sense. Then they took the leap.

Fifty years later, those sons are at the helm of the sixth-largest privately held company in the United States. Reyes Holdings is an important part of the food and beverage supply chain. It runs the country’s largest beer distributor, owns the world’s principal supplier to McDonald’s (and other restaurant chains), and operates one of America’s biggest Coca-Cola bottling and distribution concerns.

New Book Release: UFO Sightings and Alien Visitations

UFO Sightings and Alien Visitations: Facts and Falsehoods by Kevin D. Randle

Removing the misinformation and disinformation to reveal the truth behind the UFO phenomenon!

From the beginning of recorded history, people have seen unusual things in the sky and witnessed strange beings arriving from the heavens. There are cave drawings and carvings from prehistoric peoples and hieroglyphics from the Egyptians; there are statues erected in Greece and Mesoamerica and paintings from the Middle Ages. Puzzling artifacts in many other places around the world strongly indicate alien sightings and encounters have always been a part of human history.

Considerable evidence indicates that visitors have been to our world for eons, but there is also evidence of a concerted effort to suppress and obfuscate knowledge of past and modern visitations. Military veteran Kevin D. Randle examines the truth behind these stories and why the government fears the public knowing about them. Interviewing hundreds of witnesses, analyzing documents, and using his military service as a public affairs officer, a general's aide, and an intelligence officer to unravel the facts behind government investigations, Randle refutes some accounts while validating others in UFO Sightings and Alien Visitations: Facts and Falsehoods. This in-depth examination breaks down a variety of the UAP stories and possible alien visitations, including …

• Ancient gods as alien visitors
• Coral Lorenzen’s encounter
• Project Mogul balloon
• The Kingman UFO crash
• Radar sightings
• Alien space probes circling Earth
• Foreign objects entering the solar system
• Hybrid offspring
• The Allagash abduction
• The Nimitz encounter
• The 2025 Congressional hearings

And a thorough analysis of the UFO phenomenon!

Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer in the possibility of aliens coming to Earth, UFO Sightings and Alien Visitations will have you scanning to the skies with renewed wonder!

New Book Release: Unveiling Deception

Unveiling Deception: Understanding Truth and Lies in Spiritual Warfare by Jonathan K. Corrado

Deception is as old as the garden—and as modern as today’s headlines. In Unveiling Deception, Jonathan K. Corrado draws on two decades of military service and deep biblical study to reveal how lies are crafted, disguised, and deployed in spiritual warfare. Parallels between military psychological operations (PSYOP) and Satan’s ancient strategies expose why falsehood is so persuasive—because it always begins with truth.

This is more than theory. It is a field manual for Christians who want to stand firm in a culture of distortion. Readers will discover how to spot deception early, anchor their faith in God’s unshakable word, and defend truth with clarity and conviction.

Unveiling Deception is both a wake-up call and a call to arms: truth is under attack, but victory in Christ is secure. Now is the time to put on the armor, sharpen discernment, and stand boldly in the light.
