Along The Way (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780967917368)

Along The Way is a collection of personal Essays, Letters and Reflections written by the Author over a period of many years. The writings in this collection constitute a distillation of the author's thoughts, positions and passions concerning the extensive range of interests, values and commitments that reflect the issues, events, people, places and things that shape daily life of the author and define his private thoughts and public words and actions. Mr. Cole is the Executive Director of No Parties America. Org, a grassroots National Advocacy Organization committed to the restoration and preservation of the Founding Values and Principles of our Nation. The writings in this collection are quite varied. Some of the pieces are humorous. Others range from challenging, to controversial, popular, or unpopular. The motivation behind the creation of each of the pieces is constant . . . a desire to engage the reader in a meeting of minds and, hopefully, to inspire the reader to examine his or her own reaction, position, belief, concern, or even lack of concern regarding the subject of the piece. Agree or disagree with any of the writings in this collection as you choose. Some of the pieces promote a position of the author, based upon his own life experience. Others will urge you to support and event, a position or belief. The choice is always yours to make. The author is very serious in his Patriotism and Religious convictions; grateful for the many blessings he and all of us have in abundance. His writings always come from the heart, but never ignore the life lessons from his mind. It is also worth noting that his daily life is structured on the foundation of a robust sense of humor. Though a faithful and reverent practicing Roman Catholic since birth not, however, overly pious; he does not shrink from taking on the Hierarchy of Church leaders concerning matters that reflect threats to the Church from outside or within the Church. Parts of the content of this book can be described as light reading. Other parts deal with serious, even critical, dangers facing our Nation and our Religious Institutions. Of this much, the author feels certain: you will find in these pages something that will inform you, something that will challenge you, something that will encourage you, something that will infuriate you, something that will amuse or entertain you . . . and, perhaps also, something that will inspire you. In years past, the author wrote a book review column for a Newsletter. The column always closed with these words: "Read It And REAP!"
