More importantly, it helps to reduce socioeconomic biases inherent in our current employment system and has seen validity exceeding all other methods tested.

ROCKY MOUNT, Va. - August 9, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Gene Herrick, photographer and retired writer for the Associated Press, has completed his new book, "The Man Who Calls Himself JESUS": a captivating fantasy of faith.
Herrick shares, "This Jesus book is a fantasy story by a retired journalist who always wanted to cover Jesus and delve into his life.
The act of finding Jesus on many occasions and documenting some of those miraculous events for the Jerusalem Inquirer newspaper were almost more exciting than some of the stories I covered during my twenty-eight years with the Associated Press as a photographer and writer.
I know it sounds strange, but I really got into being with Jesus at first as a skeptic and then turned around as a person in awe. I really had the emotion of living in those times and feeling the emotions of the people in the story.
I found Jesus to be a man of honor, and despite his power to do miracles, all the while, Jesus seemed quiet, normal, and communicative. I also felt that we had bonded and we're friends. Writing about his death, burial, and resurrection was very interesting."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Gene Herrick's new book is a faith based story of a man who transformed from skepticism to awe and found his career dreams come to life in the journey of pursuing stories of faith and the miracles of one Jesus Christ.
Readers can purchase "The Man Who Calls Himself JESUS" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

REX, Ga. - August 9, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Terry McBride, a talented, faith-based author, has completed her new book, "The Seasons of Solomon": a spiritual read sharing how Christians may have more than one calling.
McBride shares, "The Seasons of Solomon is a story of a man's journey from the impoverished streets of Detroit, Michigan, to the inevitable answering of his call to the pulpit. Solomon Phelps was raised by his maternal grandmother; she had always instilled in him Christian values. Ernestine Phelps knew in her spirit that Solomon would be a great preacher someday.
"As a child, Solomon aspired to be a police officer. He would hear God's call for himself by the age of 13. Years later, while serving as a cold-case detective, Solomon would encounter a murder case that proved a family member to be a suspect. It is at this season in his life where Solomon realizes that sometimes seasons change, while at other times, they collide.
"This story is written to encourage believers of Jesus Christ to seek God's face, learn to hear his voice, and commit to start on the path of fulfillment in the purposes for which they were created. Following Solomon on his journey will help readers open their eyes to the possibility of having more than one calling, as well as having the wisdom to recognize when our season is changing. It is my hope that you, the reader, will discover what season you are in and seek God for the guidance to take you all the way through."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Terry McBride's new book details the story of Solomon's dreams and how his two purposes collide, exemplifying that believers of God could experience more than one calling.
Readers can purchase "The Seasons of Solomon" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

Author John Dacey’s New Book ‘Behind Confederate Lines’ is a Compelling Tale of a Man Facing His Fears and Enlisting in the Civil War...
BARRINGTON, R.I. - August 9, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
John Dacey, a psychotherapist and professor of developmental psychology, has completed his new book, "Behind Confederate Lines": a compelling tale of passion, war, and bravery.
Darcey shares, "This book describes how various characters experience the suffering and, yes, the excitement, of the American Civil War. Jack Kelly is afflicted with a serious fear of separation, so he decides to follow the advice of his religious advisor and 'do the thing he fears.' It is January 1864, and he decides to enlist in the U.S. Army when he reaches age 18 in a month. The second reason he wants to fight is because he detests slavery and struggles to understand how others can accept it.
"On a train to Washington, however, he is persuaded to collaborate with Allan Pinkerton, the famous Scottish detective, his associate Kate Warne, and abolitionist Harriet Tubman to help Yankee officers escape from the notorious Andersonville prison. They are aided by his well-trained dog Ulie. This team is at first successful, but then Jack is caught by the prison commandant, who kills Ulie. Jack manages to escape his clutches, only to face numerous other close calls. In the end, the frightened but brave young man is any of the following: (a) successful, (b) shot to death or (c) something else."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, John Dacey's new book shares the journey of a man fighting for others, fighting for freedom, and risking his own wellbeing in the process. Facing much more danger than he originally anticipated, Jack fights courageously and sets an example of bravery and selflessness.
Readers can purchase "Behind Confederate Lines" at bookstores everywhere or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
