The Spirit Within

About the Book

The Spirit Within: “What are you made of?” is the first religious/inspirational book written by James Floyd (author of the Galactic Warriors science fiction series). It was inspired by his view of current events and his desire to see a restoration of Christian and family value. This short but concise book speaks about the importance of not only building lives on the word of God, but also the values of hard work, determination, and the love of our fellow man. As we see marriages destroyed, families broken, and race relations disintegrating, it becomes evident that God fearing values must be restored in order to bring unity and peace among his people. It’s the prayer and hope of the author that this book will lay a foundation for the readers to look at their lives and the lives of their fellow man from a new mentality and perspective. Not judging based on color, culture, financial status, or political affiliations. But taking a hard look at oneself and accepting personal responsibility for success, failures, love, and hate. Then deciding to move forward one day at a time with the Lord as their guide. Take time to not only read, but to also share this book with your family. The foundation begins in the home.
