The Roma Chronicles Part One
Book One Jasmina - It is the story of a young Bosnian Roma girl who is brutally raped and whose family are murdered. She eventually ends up in a refugee camp in Croatia and falls in love with Ivan one of the camp workers. Darko the best friend of Ivan becomes involved romantically with Ivan's sister Maria. The theme is built upon the premise that innocence has a power to survive in and of itself.
Book Two Darko - The story picks up in book two with Darko revealing that he has Roma roots which he has kept hidden since childhood. The story follows his pilgrimage back to his roots and his reconciliation with his sister who has become a prostitute to support the debts of their mother.The theme develops further the concept of how innocence that comes from God has an intrisic power to transform the human condition.
Book Three Milena - The story continues by bringing all the characters together for this story. Stefan, the adopted son of Darko and Maria is a social worker like his step father and his uncle Ivan. The story follows his involvement in the Roma community and his eventual love story with Milena a physically handicapped Bayash Roma in Croatia. The story ends dramatically after a violent series of events as Stefan seeks to rescue Milena from enforced slavery.The same theme of innocence emerges but this time it is seen as having an authority that can not be defeated by power. Innocence does not need to be protected by outside help as the power of God is installed into the essence of innocence itself.

Traumatic Transition
Finding Sustainable Hope and Joy In The Quagmire Of Modernity, Post-Modernity and Paganism
Proposition One
Modernity, Post-modernity and Paganism are the processes and consequences of the socio-spiritual and lintellectual shifts that have reshaped modern Western culture and modern Western Christianity over the last two hundred years.
Proposition Two
The restoration of the non-domesticated sacred Gospel of the New Testament that confronts the spirit of the age will correct the shift and provide hope for the ever changing modern world.
Proposition Three
This transition by its nature will create trauma as it will demand the destruction of many of the malignant idols that have seduced and wounded the life of true Christianity in the Western world. That transition if made, will yield sustainable Joy.
