Spaces of Existence Volume One Understanding Life and Living It

  A beautiful old tree in the bright Sunlight.


By Dr. Arnold Thompson


Exploring the Universe Within: A Thought-Provoking Journey Into the Spaces That Define Us

What if understanding the universe wasn’t just about telescopes and physics—but about imagination, inner awareness, and divine truth?

In Spaces of Existence Vol. 1: Understanding Life and Living It, Dr. Arnold O. Thompson offers an extraordinary exploration of the physical, metaphysical, and spiritual “spaces” that shape human experience. With a foundation rooted deeply in biblical truth, this volume dares to answer age-old questions about who we are, who we’re becoming, and how we should live in a universe we barely understand.

Dr. Thompson challenges modern assumptions, urging us to examine not just the world around us, but the profound, often overlooked dimensions within. Drawing from Scripture, science, and four decades of conceptual modeling, he presents a deeply theological and intellectually rich framework—what he calls the “Spaces of the Universe”—designed to help us navigate the complexities of our inner and outer realities.

“The complexities of human existence looked at from within are far more challenging and mysterious than all the universe’s galaxies.”

From the “Elohim Space” to the space of imagination, from the shadows cast by light to the humanness machines can never replicate, Thompson’s essays blend revelation with reason, poetry with philosophy, and science with Scripture.

Whether you are a theologian, a seeker, or someone standing at the intersection of faith and thought, this book invites you to dig deeper—not just into the Word, but into the very spaces of your being.

Discover the model. Explore the message. Reflect on your own space of existence.

"Don’t Big Bang Me—I Am More Than That!"

Assiniboine Book of Colors

  TeePee against a color sky



By Vicki Bisbee


A language can bloom in a child’s mind the same way a prairie opens under light.

Assiniboine: Book of Colors welcomes readers into a calm, image-rich world where learning colors also becomes a first step into language, land, and cultural memory. Each page pairs an Assiniboine color word with a vivid scene drawn from prairie life: a black horse running free, a blue Montana sky, a brown buffalo calf in the grass, gray cooking stones near a fire pit, green prairie plants, orange sunset light, pink wildflowers, purple twilight, red beadwork, a white winter tipi, and a yellow flower turned toward the sun. The result is a book that feels less like a standard primer and more like a walk through a living landscape, where every color carries its own presence and mood.

That sense of place gives the book its quiet distinction. These are not random objects chosen simply to teach vocabulary. The colors are rooted in plains, weather, animals, traditional materials, and images tied to Assiniboine life. Even the page for gray reaches beyond simple identification by referencing the meaning of Assiniboine as “cooks using stones,” allowing the book to gently suggest history and identity alongside early learning.

That deeper connection becomes even more meaningful through the background of its creator. Vicki Bisbee is an enrolled member of the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes in northeastern Montana, where she has lived for more than fifty years. After a career as a school counselor, she received an Assiniboine dictionary and chose to create colorful language materials for all ages. That purpose can be felt throughout the manuscript. The book carries the warmth of something made not only to teach, but to keep language visible, welcoming, and alive for new generations. Her note that there are variations in the Assiniboine language, and that there is no right or wrong way to speak, adds another layer of generosity to the project: this is a book that invites learning rather than policing it.

For young readers, families, and educators looking for something beyond the usual alphabet-and-colors shelf, Assiniboine: Book of Colors offers a different kind of introduction—one where language is inseparable from land, and where a child’s first encounter with color words can also become an early encounter with cultural belonging.

Sometimes the simplest books carry the most lasting roots, because the first words a child learns can also become the first bridge to language, land, and belonging.

Every Person Has a Story to Tell

   Man and Dog sitting on bench watching Sun


Every Person Has a Story to Tell

By Dr. Walter R. Hoge



What if a life is not one straight road, but a thousand remembered paths crossing faith, grief, science, ancestry, and wonder?

Every Person Has a Story to Tell opens like a memoir, but it quickly expands into something larger and stranger: a life archive shaped by memory’s unreliability, family legend, spiritual longing, professional reinvention, and the haunting possibility that the most important places we visit may not belong entirely to this world. The book moves through ancestors, frontier histories, veterinary practice, personal losses, philosophical reflections, and a mystical valley that lingers in the author’s soul like an unfinished calling.

At its heart, the book gathers family history, memoir, faith, and reflection into a deeply personal meditation on memory, purpose, and the experiences that shape a life.

Its atmosphere shifts between grounded recollection and visionary experience. One moment, the book is contemplating squirrels, elephants, and the fragile mechanics of human memory; the next, it is standing at the edge of a glowing valley in what feels like a parallel universe, where fear gives way to peace and purpose. That tension gives the book its pulse: the earthly and the eternal, the documented and the imagined, the ordinary life and the life that seems to whisper from just beyond it.

What makes this book stand out is its refusal to separate disciplines that are usually kept apart. Science and religion, memory and myth, family history and personal testimony all occupy the same terrain. The central question is not simply what happened, but what a person does with what happened: how experience becomes meaning, how grief becomes redirection, and how a life can be measured not only by achievement, but by whether it remains open to wonder, service, and a second chance.

Some stories are told to preserve the past; others are told to light the way back to the self.

Cipher: A Proven Framework to Hire the Best People

   Small Statues of people around a yellow target with an arrow in the bullseye




Nearly half of new hires fail within 18 months. That’s not a “people problem”—it’s a process problem. Most hiring still runs on gut feel, vague job descriptions, and unstructured interviews—an approach with odds worse than a coin toss. The cost shows up fast: wasted time, lost money, and a team that can’t deliver. For 15 years, Craig della Penna has helped leaders hire with clarity and rigor using his proprietary HireBest® system resulting in better hiring decisions, reduced attrition, and less time wasted in extraneous interviews. The key component of that system is the Cipher®, a simple, powerful framework that defines what success must look like before you meet a single candidate. It distills any role into four essentials: Charge, Outcome, Deliverables, and Efforts so everyone evaluates talent against the same standard. In this practical, step-by-step guide, you’ll learn how to build and use Ciphers to help: • Replace hiring based on gut feel with a structured, repeatable hiring system • Reduce bias by anchoring interviews to what truly predicts performance • Compare candidates consistently based on data-rich perspectives • Hire better, onboard faster, and coach performance using one framework If you hire or your business depends on hiring, stop gambling with your most important asset. Learn the clear, teachable framework that improves decision quality and hiring outcomes. It’s time to HireBest.



 





Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology: A Dream Officer's Playbook for Tech Equity in Disability and Aging Services

Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology:

A Dream Officer's Playbook for Tech Equity in Disability and Aging Services

by Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown

What does freedom actually look like for someone who has been told what they cannot do their whole life?

That question lives at the heart of Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology by Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown. It is a book about what becomes possible when a whole community -- providers, families, Direct Support Professionals, policymakers, and the people being served -- decides that the way things have always been done is not good enough anymore.

The care system we are working inside was built in the 80s, way before we had the tools we have today. Imagine finding a pager from that era and thinking it still works -- then spending years looking for the payphone you need to go with it. We honor what was built with what we had. And now it is time for all of us to move forward together.

This is not a book about technology replacing people. It is about technology giving people back their time, their dignity, and their choices -- and giving the communities around them the tools to actually support that. DSPs who are burned out. Families who are exhausted. People with disabilities who deserve more than a system running on assumptions from 40 years ago. The blueprint is here. The community that changes this already exists. This book is for all of you.
