You Are What You Read
How you can enrich your life by becoming a more skillful and engaged reader of literature We are what we read, according to Robert DiYanni. Reading may delight us or move us; we may read for instruction or inspiration. But more than this, in reading we discover ourselves. We gain access to the lives of others, explore the limitless possibilities of human existence, develop our understanding of the world around us, and find respite from the hectic demands of everyday life. In You Are What You Read, DiYanni provides a practical guide that shows how we can increase the benefits and pleasures of literature by becoming more skillful and engaged readers.

Reshaping Natural Theology
Is nature creation or merely the product of non-intentional, natural processes? The author aims to recover the Christian sense that it is obvious that nature is creation and argues that biological nature has expressive properties similar in kind to human behaviour and art.
Crossroads
Crossroads: The Louis Lugo Story is the true account of a young kid raised on the streets of New York’s projects—the gangs and a lifestyle of crime would be his mentors into manhood. Follow Louis as he learns to be a hustler, a pusher, and evolves into a man to be afraid of. You will experience this gangster’s struggles every step of the way as he gambles with his life for his piece of the American dream. Serving serious time for serious crimes will be the debt he will have to pay. Yet through it all, Louis knew there were some lines he would not and could not cross. God watched as Louis hit rock bottom and waited patiently for Louis to open his heart to Him. Through the support and encouragement of his wife and his love for his children, Louis applied the skills he learned on the streets to his work as a mentor to those who are still where he once was.
