He believed the prophecies of his adoptive mother and father, which included them being the two prophets foretold in the Book of Revelations as preceding the second coming of Jesus Christ, them raising from the dead when they died, and such dire warnings as the ground opening up to swallow non-believers into hell. He was sure that Susan Alamo could raise the dead as promised. In THE SON OF SEVEN MOTHERS, Benjamin Risha takes readers on a harrowing journey that few in the United States can imagine. And eventually he must choose between the life he knows, and was “chosen” to lead, and his freedom.

Author Kedma Ough is an inspiration. Although she is now a leading force in the business world, with numerous awards (such as the SBA’s Small Business Champion of the Year) and accolades under her belt, Ough had a very rocky start. After fleeing an abusive relationship and finding herself utterly destitute, sleeping on friends’ sofas, in her car, and in an illegal, cockroach-infested basement, she found herself without means to pay for college. She wrote a letter to God, vowing that if she were to be awarded a scholarship, she would use her education and abilities to help others for the rest of her life. True to her word, Ough went on to become a nationally renowned business coach and funding thought leader as well as an adviser to independent inventors. Dubbed the “small business superhero,” she has used her extraordinary depth of knowledge of financial funding opportunities to help more than 10,000 entrepreneurs achieve their business dreams.
