About this ebook
The race is coming to a close for the Apostle Peter. His life is a quill and the ink will be his blood. The battle is raging and soon to intensify for the young church in the first century.
History is being written by God, the plot of redemption being worked out in and through the work of Jesus Christ. Nothing that is happening to the church is an accident nor will it have the final word. I love you is the word from God, to my elect, those whom I set my love on!! It is as though for a moment the whole of the universe is silenced and God speaks in the lives of Peter and His churches, reminding them of His love for them and the footsteps of their Savior Jesus Christ, who endured the cross then the crowning. You are not alone. I am with you, shielding you and will bring you into my presence to receive your crown of glory.
The expectation for Peter and churches was to “be Holy, because I am Holy.” (1 Peter 1:16) In a certain sense, our lives are a letter that attends the written word, which shows the reality of the gospel applied to the elect of God, sanctified, growing in grace and lived as a doxology to God.
To His Church signed in His Blood

Cary Holbert (BA, MDIV, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, Triple P Parenting Accreditation, SHIP Counselor ) President of (dba) Jonahbooks.com Inc. For 29 years he struggled for a sense of purpose and meaning to life while just going through the motions of living. Darkness has consumed me and hopelessness is my heart. I long to cry, but death is my master and liberty beyond reach. I was a prisoner by choice with no key to unlock my shackles. I did not call for help nor cared. Then from a distance while working as a Business Manager in the Automobile business in 1986 I heard a sound like the blowing of wind rustling through the trees. The rushing wind penetrated deep into my soul. It was the Son of Man who saw me in despair. The light of the gospel has come to awaken my dead soul. The screams of death have left me and the Holy Spirit has taken up residence. Life has overtaken me and I now see the Son of God, my Christ, my Savior and what I could not do He has done. My soul is overcome with joy and expressed with shouts of praise that shatter glass. My being is now an offering for His service. Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I finally see! "The light of the world" has opened my mind to the truth of existence and purpose for living. Cary soon went on to complete the Master's of Divinity program at Columbia Biblical Seminary and then ordained by the PCA and now Pastor Emeritus in the Christian Reformed Church. He has had extensive experience in for-profit and non-profit organizations and currently serves on several non-profit boards. Dirty Feet Ministries Inc is going one-step farther to-simply-serve and provide life-skills training to small organization who have limited resources wanting coaching, consulting, training and encouragement in their faith journey.
