Q and A

James: When did you begin to write?

Kuehn : One of my earliest memories of writing as a way to express myself is when I wrote music and lyrics.  That is when I discovered how natural it was for me to share my thoughts and feelings in this art form.  Years later I began writing articles when I was asked to write a column for the local paper.  Receiving a great deal of unexpected, positive feedback from people of how they had been encouraged and helped by what I wrote was a real motivator for me to write more.  That is when I decided to write books. 

James : What made you to think of publishing a book to share with others and at the same time encourage others to share their faiths?

Kuehn : (This question is partially answered above.  I will answer it more specifically about my book, Think Like a Winner.)

The reason I wrote and published Think Like a Winner is because I want people to understand the importance of renewing their minds, as commanded in the Word of God, after they become saved.  It doesn’t just happen.  In Think Like a Winner I explain the process and give examples of how to apply and practice God’s Word.   This is the key to knowing who we are in Christ and living the abundant life Jesus died to give us.   

James : So far what is your worst criticism/attacks, and how you overcome it?

Kuehn : Believe it or not, my worst criticism/attacks are against my Christian faith and my boldness in sharing it.  I do not take it personally because I know it is God they are angry with. So I overcome it by praying for these people and thanking God for using me to glorify Him.

James: How do you come up with title of your books?

Kuehn: I generally come up with the title after the book is completed.  I have a goal and direction from the start, and I pull it all together at the end because sometimes my writing takes on a different direction that I did not originally anticipate. 

James: Can you enlighten us a little more about your books?

Kuehn : My books are written from the heart, and I trust the Lord to work in and through me to communicate His love, encouragement, compassion, understanding, wisdom, insight and perspective as best I can.  Because I have a passion to encourage people and help them be their best, my books are written with that goal in mind.  They are inspirational, positive and hopeful. 

James: Is there anything else you would like your readers to pay special attention in regards to your book, which you have not mentioned above?

Kuehn : Yes, pay special attention to what the Lord is showing you as you read my books.  He may have a word of encouragement or comfort for you.  Be open and look to Him. It might be some new insight or direction.  You may be challenged in some way.  Be open and enjoy what you read. 

James : When do you plan to publish your book 2, if applicable?

Kuehn: Currently published, see below.

James: How many volume of books for the above series?

Kuehn: The perfect companion to Think Like a Winner is In Christ, I am: God’s Promises on Who You Are in Christ that Will Transform You from the Inside Out.  It contains over 150 truths about who you are in Christ.  We renew our minds and think like a winner when we receive, believe, apply and practice these truths.   The other book included in the series is God’s Promises in 8 Keys Life Areas that Will Change Your Life.  This is another book to empower believers in applying God’s truth to their life.

James: Tell us your guided principle that governs your life? How you cultivate these values?

Kuehn:  My goal is to live my life for God.  I have a responsibility to use the gifts He has given me.  I do my best and my part, and I leave the rest to Him.   There are so many powerful principles in the Word of God.  I want to live by all of them, but if one were to be the guiding principle that governs my life, I would have to say – Love the Lord God with all your heart and soul, love others and love yourself.  If you do this, you will obey Him; you will treat others with kindness and love; you will give and help others; you will take good care of yourself; you will have your priorities in order; you will live with integrity; you will live to glorify God; you will put Him first; you will spend time with Him.  I cultivate these values by putting them into practice.  Like I share in my books, it takes time to develop good habits and replace bad ones and knowing who we are in Christ helps us to accomplish this. With God’s help, it can be done.  It takes persistence, faith and commitment. 

  

Thank again for joining us today. So, let her rewarding and fulfilling life shine everyone.

THINK LIKE A WINNER - BOOK REVIEW

THINK LIKE A WINNER- BOOK REVIEW

THINK LIKE A WINNER - BOOK REVIEW
If you’re a Christ follower, then you’ll really enjoy  THINK LIKE A WINNER  How Renewing Your Mind with God's Word Empowers You to Win in Life  by Krystal Kuehn.

This Christian walk book tells us God's plan of taking part in our lives so as to empower us to think and live like a Winner. I received a review copy of the book a few days ago and have been reading through it during the days and nights.

Have you been daydreaming to be Christ-like?

Think Like A Winner is a Christian book targeted at those people who want to be transformed and live like a Christ-like person, especially for those who find their lives fundamentally unrewarding, un-enriching and un-fulfilling.  If this sounds like you, then you will like the author, guided by the spirit, is talking your language and telling you lively on how to gain the highest perspective on life by strengthening your faith.

This book is a perfect companion to your Christian life journey.  Gives you a good understanding of God's promises on who you are in Christ that will transform You from inside out. It starts with a beautiful, meaningful and powerful verse, Roman 12:2 which is the corner stone of the winning formula

 . 

This Is The Every Christian’s Life Companion

I think that what I enjoyed most about this book is the overall process in detailing, how you need to embrace, think and live like a Winner.  This is the book that truly builds up the foundation that results in profound changes in your life with a deepened understanding and relationship with the Lord that leads to true fulfillment in Him. This highest perspective will open the readers' hearts to Him. It’s about the transformation process that take place in order to enable anyone to see from God's perspective. Then follow by steps to strengthen one's faith by staying and connecting with Him to draw His strength to overcome whatever obstacles and barriers that come along your journey.  That’s what makes this book worth reading.

Kuehn writes more than the way you or I would tell a Winning way by sharing the process that moves you to think like a winner before you will be given ample examples and exercises on how to apply and put Biblical truth, principles and live with it. 

As you read through the book, you’ll be able to visualise how the entire plan of life designed, by the One above, for your good.  By living inside you, to lead you to live life like winner so long as you chose so . In this connection, you will able to see the familiar themes of born again, relationship building, unlearnt and re-learnt.  The book isn’t meant to persuade or dissuade you – it’s meant to inform and educate you so that you can make a good decision about what is wanting for your good.

Biblical principles, Application and Revelation

You can probably read this book in a leisurely weekend.  Pray before reading it.  It’s less than 40 pages, light, practically useful and well supported by all the relevant and material biblical verses.  Each chapter flows not only smoothly, but is well connected from one chapter to the other before leading you the way to live like a Winner, apart from the exercises of its application. 

The Title Is Precise, Concise and Exactly Right

It should sell quite a few copies on the title alone. Important lesson to me and I have to admit the title is irresistible. 

Live as a Winner definitely is a noble goal, because it propels and prospers you to the greater height of success. Grounded with good, sound and solid understanding of this transformation will ease your Christian walk. You will be empowered to walk by faith, and not by sight. Consistent and persistent application is the surest way to live like a winner.

This book is ideal for anyone who feels you had been living life without much meaning and is looking for inspiration to go off on his own.

INTERVIEW WITH GUEST AUTHOR - MARIE HARBON

INTERVIEW WITH GUEST AUTHOR- MARIE HARBON

About the Author:- 

I’m a UK based author who writes mainly in the science fiction, fantasy, and paranormal genres, although I may break that rule from time to time. Apart from writing, my greatest passions also include fabric and stitching; I create bags, corsets and clothing in the vintage, retro and alternative style.

Q and A

James: When did you begin to write?

I was always known for writing stories when I was at school. The teachers would read them out to the class and at age 12, I expanded an English class assignment to a novella about my class being stranded on a desert island after the cruise ship sank. It was rather Lost-esque, with giant rabbits and aliens, but the class mostly enjoyed all the interactions between the characters, as they were the stars!

Since then, I’ve written a few more novel length books, but I wanted my stories to have maturity so I waited until I was much older before I put one out. I think it’s best to write with the wisdom of experience, of relationships and of people. It creates stronger characters and enriched interactions between them. So in conclusion, I think writing has always been in my blood.

James : What make you to think of publishing a book to share with others and at the same time encourage others to share their faiths? So far what is your worst criticism/attacks, and how you overcome it?

It’s something I always intended to do, especially as I’m happy creating my own little worlds in my head. Usually, criticism tends to come from readers who venture out of their genre, or who don’t understand the book is part of a series and no plot threads are going to be resolved in the first book. If it isn’t constructive criticism, I tend to ignore it.

James: How you come up with title of your books?

I usually look for a powerful word, or something enigmatic like ‘Seven Point Eight’. My preference is for words and titles that aren’t used much, therefore they stand out.

James: Can you enlighten us a little more about your books?

It amalgamates all the things that interest me and that I’ve read about, including psychic powers, time travel, past lives, folklore, aliens, ancient wisdom and technology, quantum physics, mysticism, conspiracy, and the universe. I wanted to create a highly ambitious series that encompasses life, the universe and everything, in an epic story revolving around five principal characters.

The concept revolves around visiting other worlds via the power of the mind, so you don’t need your physical body. Through consciousness alone, it’s possible to explore not only the universe, but your own spiritual heritage. The series involves a group of extraordinary people, and their quest for the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

James: Is there anything else you would like your readers to pay special attention in regards to your book, which you have not mentioned above?

The Seven Point Eight Chronicles

‘The Truth Will Set You Free’

Written in the style of a TV series, Seven Point Eight draws together quantum physics, psychic powers, alternate dimensions, time travel, past lives, ancient wisdom, and conspiracy in a soap opera for the soul.

It’s the ideal read for lovers of sci-fi, contemporary fantasy, the paranormal, metaphysics, ‘Lost’, ‘Fringe’, ‘Touch’, and Dan Brown books.

Seven Point Eight: The Second Chronicle

‘What Goes Around, Comes Around’

In the second instalment of the five part Seven Point Eight series, the legacy of the OOBE project weighs heavily on the conscience of Dr. Paul Eldridge. Tahra Mamoun needs to muster all her courage and venture back into the alternate dimensions of reality. Through a series of challenging, surreal and frightening experiences, she comes to comprehend the destructive power she can yield and must face her own demons in the process.

Paul continues his quest to understand the ancient knowledge of the cosmos, while dark forces seek to hijack his research to further a secret agenda. With their lives in jeopardy, Paul and Tahra confront their enemies against an international backdrop featuring the pyramids of Giza and the peaks of Switzerland.

Meanwhile, Sam and Ava endeavour to uncover their past, even though it may irrevocably change their lives.

In a tale of courage and tragedy, love and betrayal, their lives are interwoven around the demons of one man, Max Richardson, who'll stop at nothing to achieve his objectives.

James: When do you plan to publish your book 2, if applicable? 

This is book 2 that I’m promoting.

James : How many volume of books for the above series? 

There are five in all. The First Chronicle came out about eighteen months ago, The Second Chronicle has just been released, and The Third Chronicle is scheduled for next year, no specific release day yet.

Each book will feature a main character on the cover, with the story involving them in a significant way. The first book depicted Tahra, as she is the key to beginning this whole journey in many ways, while the second one depicts Max, because I think his story arc is central to the action in the story, and links the character in a very dark and sinister way.

The Third Chronicle will feature Ava and in this book, her purpose and secrets will be revealed, as will her enemies and allies. I have something really wonderful planned for her, although it’ll change her life in ways she may regret. The Fourth Chronicle focuses on Paul to a large degree, because there’s a chunk of his life he hasn’t told us about, and it will be pretty explosive for the people concerned. Finally, The Fifth Chronicle concludes with the focus on Sam, his demons and dilemmas, plus, it wraps up all the story threads and mysteries running throughout the series.

I have some great story arcs lined up for all the characters, they’d better hold onto their hats!

James: Tell us your guided principle that governs your life? How you cultivate these values? 

My principles are ‘do what you believe to be right, regardless of what you are told’. Avoid hypocrisy, and extend empathy towards others. Experience life through creativity and love for humanity. Empower yourself within, not through outward displays of materialism. Seek the truth, regardless of what you are told. I try to communicate my principles through my writing.

James: Is there any other advice which you like to share with our readers? 

Don’t rush; craft your story with care, patience and above all, passion. Pass it to a variety of people to read in beta form, and ideally one or two people you don’t know very well, so you can get a more unbiased opinion. Take on feedback and appraise your work with honesty. Then after it’s published, be prepared to work extremely hard promoting it.  See it as a journey and enjoy the ride.
