What People Are Saying!
I love the Lightkeeper Chronicles parable book. Engrossing from the start and a true reflection of current times told in the setting of a medieval world.
Millie Banach
Wow! The essays in When Bonds Fade left me feeling both sad and awakened. How easily we forget and take for granted our most important relationships.
Lee McView
This author's written voice and point of view really enrich the story. The Machine and The Whispers is a parable story of the impact of oligarchy over society and is presented from a child's point of view.
Mike Westman
The Way Forward Series
If you have ever felt the ache of a world coming apart — in your family, in your country, in yourself — these books were written for you.
Each one holds a thread of the same truth:
that love is not a strategy or a sentiment. It is the only real way home.
Something broke. In our families. In our country.
In the spaces between us where trust used to live.
The Way Forward series is for everyone who has felt that breaking
—and who believes healing is still possible.
The way forward isn't easy. But it's real. And we walk it together.
Book One, What Happened to Us, traces how we got here and offers a practical path through the divide.
Book Two, Love is the Only Way Forward, goes deeper into the spiritual truth that makes healing possible.
Book Three, When Winning Isn't Enough, asks the harder question — not how we heal, but what kind of nation we are willing to become.
Book Four, Love Returns to Many, brings it home — the inner work, the daily practice, the lived experience of what it actually means to replace fear with love.
Together, they offer both the honest diagnosis and the sacred path through — the questions we must ask, the truths we must face, the love we must choose, and the practice that makes it real. The way forward isn't easy. But it's real. And we walk it together.
What Happened to Us
Love is the Only Way Forward
A Healing Path Through America's Divided
by Linda L McDonald
What do you do when someone you love becomes someone you can't reach?
What Happened to Us is an aftermath manual for families, communities, and a nation torn apart by fear. With compassion for all sides and honesty about what we each have to own, this book traces how we got here—and offers a path toward healing.
This isn't about who was right. It's about finding our way home. Together.
And once the Way is desired, Love is the Only Way Forward which is the sequel for our journey.
This book the way to acceptance, understanding, ownership and the future.
A Gift Transmitted from the Angels and Love
by Linda L. McDonald
In a world searching for peace, the angels offer a simple truth: love is not a theory — it is the only way forward.
Through twelve transmissions received from the Angel Galactic Council, this sacred collaboration between heaven and humanity invites readers into remembrance — of who we are, why we came, and what it truly means to live in love.
Each message carries a frequency of awakening, guiding us through what the angels call The Great Balancing, The Three Paths of Faith, The Sacred Return, and more.
Written through Linda’s deep communion with Spirit, Love Is the Only Way Forward is both revelation and reminder — a call to step out of fear, choose compassion, and remember that love has never left us. It is the quiet voice leading us home.
“This is not a prophecy, but a remembrance.”
Best for readers who: feel the fracture in their family or community but still believe healing is possible. You'll love this if: you want both the honest diagnosis and a practical path through — without being told whose fault it is.
Best for readers who: are ready to move from understanding into transformation. You'll love this if: you are open to receiving direct transmissions from angelic wisdom and want to feel, not just read, your way back to love.
When Winning Isn't Enough
Love Returns to Many
Four Futures for a Fractured Democracy
by Linda L McDonald
What if you could see where we're actually headed?
When Winning Isn't Enough takes one ordinary neighborhood into four possible futures — four worlds that emerge when different visions are followed to their logical end, lived out in kitchens and churches and sidewalks.
This isn't about who's right. It's about what we're becoming — and whether we still have time to choose differently.
Because some futures can still be avoided. But only if we can see them coming.
A Transmission from the Angel Galactic Council
by Linda L. McDonald
Something is coming undone. You can feel it — in your neighborhood, your family, the spaces where trust used to live.
Love Returns to Many is for the ones who are tired of the hate but don't know what to do with that tiredness.
Through spiritual teaching and stories set in a small-town bookstore, it traces the quiet return of love to ordinary life — not as a grand gesture, but as the daily practice of people who have decided that kindness is not weakness.
This isn't a book to read and shelve. It is a book to live from.
Best for readers who: sense that something deeper than politics is breaking — and want to understand it without being handed a villain.
You'll love this if: you can hold uncomfortable truths about all sides and still believe the story doesn't have to end this way.
Best for readers who: are exhausted by the division and ready to stop waiting for someone else to change first.
You'll love this if: you believe love is the serious answer — and you want a book that treats it that way.
