Wisdom in the Best Books and Films

Jacob Bair recently ran for office in Oklahoma. That is how we met. Then I found out that we also share a love of good books and seeking wisdom. He has both a substack and a podcast and is a wealth of information! I asked him if he had an index to his work and he said no but that he would create one and that he did. Here it is (shared with permission); the links at the end of each listing go to the article or episode in his substack:

Books Added to the Library

Several years ago now, I worked with a dear friend and mentor to publish books for him. His name was Jesse C Jones and he was a lifetime friend of my family. His story and a little about the early days is in one of his books, A Man of God. When we originally published his books, we did so on the platform Scribd. It was a great place to store books, pamphlets, and documents and everything was free to publish and share. Since that time, they have tried to move the platform to a membership venue, but we are grandfathered in there at least for now. I don't like the way they try to get everyone who goes there to join now, but all of our books there are still free to read and download if you push past all that. But I don't know how long that will last either. Therefore, I am adding the books that I want to be sure stay available to CLibertyC. I plan to leave them on Scribd as well. These books are indexed and linked here for your easy access below. They are being added by the date published.

Prayer of Jabez by Bruce Wilkinson – Audio Tapes

Prayer of Jabez audio tapes digitized to mp3 files. Each side is about 30 minutes long. I thoroughly enjoyed this presentation and have listened several times in the process of digitizing the tape.  Delightful, entertaining, simple and profound all at the same time! You may be able to listen without downloading depending on what device you are on, but you can download the files as you wish if that works better for you.  The files should be available to share with others if you want to do that also. This presentation was originally given at an Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) meeting around the year 2000 about the same time the book Prayer of Jabez came out from comments made.

The Rat in the Hat

The Rat in the Hat was written by David Rucker in 1995 and illustrated by Vic Lockman.  It was published in a limited edition for his 40th birthday.  David served as a spokesman for Associated Conservatives of Texas in the 1990's and went to be with the Lord in 2006.  He is deeply missed and dearly loved by his friends and family.  We want you to share in this treasure that he left with us and we are pleased to be able to share it with you online now.  It is a timeless parody calling for America to wake up because time is short.  It is cleverly written, delightfully illustrated and best read out loud to young and old alike.  Enjoy! It is free to read and download and share!

The Path to Holiness by Jesse C. Jones

I (Jesse C. Jones) chose the above title to reflect my understanding of what the Bible tells us about God’s plan and purpose in sending His only Son to earth in the form of a man. We know that Jesus came to restore God’s chosen ones to favor through spiritual regeneration. The path He chose is marked with milestones described herein. This book was originally published in paperback but is now no longer readily available in print. It is available here online with a different cover than the version in print. You may read it online or download it in pdf format below.

A Study on the Gospel of John by Jesse C Jones

John wrote this Gospel while he was bishop of the church at Ephesus, during the period between 80 - 90 AD, and prior to the writing of 1, 2, and 3 John, and the Book of Revelation. This Gospel is often referred to as the “spiritual Gospel,” since it focuses on the spiritual aspect of Jesus’ ministry, emphasizing His divinity. Thus, he introduces Jesus as the Word, who was with God from the beginning, and is God. You can see more of Jesse C Jones work here: http://jessecjones.wordpress.com
