What is the price of courage? Are honor, duty, and country the noblest ideals of American men at arms? How does a young American boy make the transition from a naïve country bumpkin to a soldier worthy to wear the green uniform of freedom? Are Americans that wear that olive drab uniform always the good honorable sons of the fertile land of Liberty? Difficult questions fog the young mind of Joshua David Duncan as he enters a world that defies his western imagination by a people whose ordinary acts of daily living are mystifying to behold. He enters the realm of Asia in all its captivating beauty with a relish to explore the land and meet the people. He sees the splendor of the Asian sunrise and sunset and the glory of the mountains and sea, but at the same time he is left stymied by the depravity of the golden skinned people. Without warning a dark, beautiful, native girl captures more than just his attention, but an unexpected war changes everything. And then the children appear: Hungry, ravaged, and frightened, but the paramount question is not asked with a why, but a who. Who do they all come from?

History comes alive in God's Perfect Scar. A survivor of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising finds himself in Auschwitz, working with a woman prisoner to plan and implement a harrowing mass escape. A former Polish lancer turned airborne trooper turned English instructor at the University of Warsaw finds himself targeted by the Kremlin-controlled secret police. Two brothers find themselves conscripted by a pair of ambitious rulers, each itching to fire the first shot in a war that will ensnare soldiers and nurses from America, Britain, New Zealand and Korea. An American priest, a former World War II chaplain, finds himself playing street soccer in Rome and plotting a rescue in Warsaw. Bullets and shrapnel leave lasting scars as do polio, treachery and guilt. Painstakingly researched, God's Perfect Scar is the story of ordinary people swept up in extraordinary, history-changing upheavals, contending with unrelenting stresses and making life-altering choices. During his research, Johnson learned about Aline Gartner, lost in the mists of time and history. In the pages of God's Perfect Scar, he "brings back to life" this remarkably courageous woman. From Auschwitz to Cracow to Warsaw, London, Moscow, Beijing, Kaesong, Seoul and small town America, God's Perfect Scar takes readers on a journey that provides a different and broader perspective on major happenings that have been shaping history for the last 60 years.

Thoughts In The Journey is a book of proverbial, and prophetic sayings, based upon the interpretation of the word of God. The purpose of this book is to bring an awaking to both believers and unbelievers, that they might have wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the grace of God. Many years ago, during the course of my journey, I started jotting down these thoughts in a notebook, and in the fullness of time, these are now written on the pages of this book. The journey has been one of great experience, and life changing for me, which has taught me diligence in studying the word of God, that I might grow thereby, and pray that it will do the same for you. Above all, I pray that the word of God will be a lamp unto your feet and light unto your path. By this you will walk in his perfect and acceptable will, and that is to submit to his love and faith unto righteousness. I hope this book will give you a burning desire to pursue the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus. Mazel A. Hart By his love and faith unto righteousness
