THE REVELATION MANDATE Calls Christians to Action
by BWW News Desk - June 24, 2013
The book of Revelation was written in 70 A.D., according to christiancourier.com, and since then Christians have regarded the Scripture as authoritative and inerrant. Author Todd Lewis believes the Church has been flooded for more than 150 years with false doctrines and empty speculations about the meaning of the so-called 'end times'. He believes this has caused people to gravely misinterpret the meaning of history and the Church's role in it. In his new book The Revelation Mandate, Lewis takes a deeper look at the book of Revelation to help remedy what he believes is a profound internal attack on the faith.

Glen A. Mazis Releases Poetry Collection, THE RIVER BENDS IN TIME
by BWW News Desk - June 24, 2013
The River Bends in Time ($15, ISBN: 978-1-937536-23-7, LCCN: 2012933922, 110pp, 6X9, April 2012) follows the flow of time and the river as it unwinds in a small town in Pennsylvania along the banks of the Susquehanna. The narrator experiences those quiet moments of joy when ducks come from the sky to skim the water's edge or in the height of a Nor'easter as he walks through the forest filling with snow, but also the sadness of a neighbor's dying, or love breaking apart. The river flows, always bending and changing, like discovering the love of a mate that one joins with, becoming partners who run together under flying snow geese, or digging a pond behind a two-hundred-year-old house. Yet, the postmodern world seems lost without a past. A bout with colon cancer brings a renewed sense of the preciousness of each day and how the culture is wrong in its headlong race towards the future. The book ends with moments that resonate with the past in a state of continual affirming discovery. Glen A. Mazis teaches philosophy and humanities at Penn State Harrisburg where he is Full Professor and has directed the interdisciplinary Master's program. His poetry has been published in several literary journals, includingRosebud, The North American Review, Sou'wester, Spoon River Poetry Review, Willow Review, The Atlanta Review and Ashville Poetry Review (best of 1994-2004). He also writes books of cultural critique and philosophy, including Earthbodies (SUNY, 2002) and his newest book, Humans, Animals, Machines: Blurring Boundaries (SUNY, 2008). Mazis's poetic credits include being a chapbook finalist for White Eagle Coffee Store Press, and a finalist in competitions for a Writers At Work Fellowship, and the White Pine Press and Spire Press Book Prizes. He has 75 poems accepted for publication in past 12 years in 38 journals with poems also appearing in Many Mountains Moving,Ellipsis, Cumberland Poetry Review, Willow Review, River Oak Review, Crab Creek Review, Connecticut River Review, Worcester Review, Poet's Guild, Wisconsin Review, and Writer's Forum.
