Break the Silence

In The Age of Silence, book one of my Length of Days trilogy written six years ago (2014), I wrote we were entering the age of silence.
Length of Days - The Age of Silence   We certainly are now hip deep in fear of speaking up about what God has given us. In The Age of Silence, it took only one citizen to speak out to break the silence. Today, we all need to speak up and speak out, but it still begins with one. That one must be you and me - for together that will make two.
With God, that make three to , for we are never alone.

Begin speaking by talking to God. Pray that the haters and anarchists become so filled with His presence, they over flow with love like an effervescent fountain. Begin now. you can speak out by passing this post along to others.

Then do .... the "doing" depends on your talents and interest. As an author, I've used books to speak out. Last year I donated twenty-five books of my novel, Tucker McBride, to a classroom in Fort Wayne and the same for a class in Texas. While Tucker McBride is not a book of history, it is the historic fiction of a boy, a community, and America the way life was in 1946. Students learned about the time when kids were active, adventurous, and creative, mixed with the true history of the time. At the end of the summer, the sequel, Tucker McBride's Many Lives, will be out. 

Yesterday, I bought four of Brian Kilmeade's books to read and then give to a fifth-grade teacher ---
  • George Washington's Secret Six: The Spy Ring That Saved the American Revolution 
  • Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans: The Battle That Shaped America's Destiny
  • Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates: The Forgotten War That Changed American History 
  • Sam Houston and the Alamo Avengers: The Texas Victory That Changed American History   
No act is too small. The urgency is in beginning while there is still time.
