Here is a story you might find amusing -- I discovered a new book by Jeffery L. Sheler, "Prophet of Purpose - the Life of Rick Warren" on line. I copied the cover from the ad from Doubleday Religion, a division of Random House and Photoshopped the parody you see posted. It wasn't 30 minutes later someone from Random House was viewing my entry. I was checking my Sitemeter under Recent Visitors by Refferral and discovered that they were ONLY viewing THAT specific page. Needless to say, but I'm going to say it anyway, I was a bit nervous. They had to have some sort of tracking mechanism embedded in the book cover. I checked my gmail to see if I had a "Cease and Desist" letter, but nothing came.
Later an "unknown" viewer was checking out the same post and I discovered it was the actual author himself, Jeffery L. Sheler!
Thank God, he had a good sense of humor. This is what he posted on his Twitter"

Thanks Jeffery for not turning me in to the Arminian Bureau of Investigation!

A Testimony to God's Saving Grace

My B.C. years were pocked with sin and grief.
I did all I could to fulfill my carnal ambitions. Thinking I would always earn a living as a musician, I dropped out of high school to devote myself to sex, drugs and rock n' roll. Getting high was my top priority. I was jailed eventually, hospitalized, and committed to a mental institution because of my suicidal inclinations. When I was released, I continued pursuing the same activities. I did all I could to escape reality. I was running from myself...running from my past...and without knowing it at the time, running straight into the hands of God! I now realize the Lord was setting up all the roadblocks, detours, and dead-ends in my life, leading me through a seemingly hopeless maze into a direct confrontation with His Son, Jesus Christ! Hebrews 1:14 declares that God sends His angels to render service to "those who will inherit salvation." He was surely doing that in my tangled life. One night, while alone in my room, I could run no longer. I reached out to the Lord and cried in desperation for Him to save me from a life misspent. He heard my plea and miraculously and instantly transformed me. I will never be the same.
