30 Thoughts to Ponder vol. 6: Inspiration Series #1 (Volume 6)
I’m pleased to present volume six in the series of inspirational messages based on radio-spots I presented a few years ago. I originally prepared each one for oral presentation, so some adapting has taken place as I reworked them for e-copies and print. I have enjoyed the challenge of locating Scriptures to include in these volumes. The principles and truths found in the materials are timeless. I hope and pray that my readers benefit from life’s lessons displayed in these short messages. I mentioned in an earlier volume that the messages presented are based on ESP – Experience, Scripture, and Prayer. Each reader may be moved in different ways by these selections, but I feel certain that something will be found within the Experiences, Scriptures, and Prayers to help you make it through the day. I hope and pray that you will feel God’s blessings every day.

Ludmilla “Mili” Petrova was once the most hunted woman on earth, having raised the fury of two of the most powerful leaders on either side of World War II: Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler.

Reilly enlists her friend, former marine sniper Bob Lee Swagger, to parse out the scarce details of Mili’s military service.

And why, when Swagger joins Kathy Reilly on a research trip to the Carpathian Mountains, is someone trying to kill them before they can find out?
As Bob Lee Swagger, “one of the finest series characters ever to grace the thriller genre, now and forever” (Providence Journal-Bulletin), races to put the pieces together, Sniper’s Honor takes listeners across oceans and time in an action-packed, compulsive listen.
