If you think belief in a God of justice and mercyis irrational or unrealistic, would you be glad if you were wrong? If so, this book is for you. Drew Avery guides you to a "basecamp" of sensible, logical, rational faith. A place where you-the agnostic, the "none," the "spiritual"-can leave vagueness behind. A place where you may find new purpose and the needed strength to live a better life and to help make a better world. Raised by atheists, Avery addresses the doubts that he, too, had to learn to doubt and speaks especially to young adults and parents raising children. He challenges atheistic presumptions with humor, counts their social cost, and explains how a theistic awakening can "heal this land."
Es decir, ya lo amaba, respetaba y admiraba.Jesús y sus apóstoles no estaban tan lejos y Judá simplemente los siguió de lejos para no perderlos de vista.Jesús entró en una de las casas para hacer la comida junto con sus apóstoles y la multitud esperaba afuera. Judá, esperó pacientemente el momento de poder seguir a ese hombre con toda la franqueza que sentía en su corazón.

This memoir weaves together history with spirituality, exposes the author's fight against panic attacks and depression, and explores what it means to find oneself after becoming lost as she works to become a better person. Fifteen percent of the proceeds from the sale of each book goes to rescue homeless and abandoned elders around the world.In 2017, Alicia Jean Demetropolis traveled to Nepal to spend three months volunteering at an elder care facility. While there, she experienced the clash of cultures and the horrors of certain practices: animal sacrifice, children putting elderly parents out into the street, and the scorn and neglect heaped upon the vulnerable and homeless. Fighting to make things better, she found herself also fighting her own personal demons, as she came to question her life and her spiritual beliefs. In this recounting of her odyssey, Alicia navigates bigotry and bullying, faces election violence, encounters the kindness of strangers, and discovers the love and grace of new-found family. With Nepal as its backdrop, the author explores the intersection of faith and humanity as she searches for God at the top of the world.
La bible dit que nous luttons non contre le sang et la chair, mais contre les principautés et les autorités. Dans ce livre, nous faisons une étude des principautés et des autorités et nous indiquons comment les renverser.Ce livre sur le combat spirituel est né dans le creuset du ministère.Dans une certaine mesure, nous avons expérimenté ce sur quoi nous écrivons. Le Seigneur Jésus est vivant et Il est réel. Le diable est vivant et il est réel. Le combat est réel et non imaginaire.Nous publions ce livre, en priant qu'il conduise les enfants du Royaume à une plus grande liberté. Nous prions aussi que le Seigneur Dieu l'utilise pour ouvrir les yeux de plusieurs de Ses enfants sur la manière de gagner des villes, des nations et des continents pour Son Fils glorifié.
Daniel is one of the prophets who saw and tackled principalities and powers that stood against the accomplishment of God's purposes.That is the only Bible equivalent of the kind of ministry that the author, Professor Z.T. Fomum was called carried out. And the Bible shows that what was happening outwardly to the kingdom was the fruit of something that was happening in the spiritual realm.The Bible says that we are not fighting against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers. In this book, we have made a study of principalities and powers and how they can be overthrown.This spiritual warfare book was born in the crucible of ministry. To some extent we know in reality what we are writing about. The Lord Jesus is alive and He is real. The devil is alive and he is real. The warfare is real and not imaginary.We send this book out with prayer that it will lead to greater freedom among the children of the kingdom. We further pray that the Lord God will be pleased to use it to open the eyes of many of His children as to how to take cities, nations, and continents for His glorified Son.
The secret book of the cunning man of Denbighshire, a Welsh magical notebook from the 1830s, was published in part in the 1970s but is now lost. Andrew Phillip Smith reconstructs and translates the notebook. The cunning man, or dyn hysbys, straddled two worlds, providing magical services to his community, preserving traditional charms and magical techniques yet eager to discover other techniques or spells that were coming to light.Smith digs into a lost world of first-hand accounts and folklore in which Welsh magicians had a particular command over fairies, and were regularly sought out for charms against malign witchcraft. Chapters provide a mass of information on the wise women and fraudulent rogues of Denbighshire, the relationship between magicians and fairies in tradition and folktale and the methods of unwitching cattle, and a possible author for this lost notebook.'... both a worthwhile addition to scholarship and an easy introduction for the newcomer.'Dr Ronald Hutton, Professor of History Bristol university, author of The Triumph of the Moon, The Witch, Queens of the Wild'This is a remarkable book that offers in-depth insight into the secret world of the Welsh Dyn Hysbys. . . a fascinating study of magic and folklore in Wales that will surely become a classic of its time.' Kristoffer Hughes, Head of the Anglesey Druid Order, author of Cerridwen & The Book of Druidry.'Anyone with an interest in magic, folklore, or even Welsh history in general will find something in this book, read it and revel in the magic of Wales' traditional folk magical culture.' Mhara Starling, author of Welsh Witchcraft: A Guide to the Spirits, Lore, and Magic of Wales'... a thoroughly enjoyable, as well as illuminating, read.' David Conway, author of Magic: An Occult Primer'In this work Andrew Phillip Smith lifts the veil to reveal a lost Secret Book, a veritable Cunning Man's cornucopia.'David Rankine, author of The Grimoire Encyclopaedia
This book tells the story of the children and youth of the charismatic new religious commune Knutby Filadelfia in Sweden. It recounts the history of the congregation, which started out as a part of the Swedish Pentecostalmovement in 1921. In the 1990s, it developed into a new religion, when the congregation¿s female pastor embraced the role of the Bride of Christ. The congregation became widely known in 2004 when one of its members was murdered by another member, the latter claiming to have been acting on orders from God. In 2018, the congregation dissolved after a few years of internal crisis.Sanja Nilsson provides rich empirical analysis of archival material and interviews with the congregation¿s children and youth. The young informants¿ personal perspectives on their own childhoods encompass narratives from their time inside the congregation, when they identified as members of a stigmatizedminority religion, aswell as from the time after the dissolution of the group, when they identified asdefectors from what they came to view as a sectarian milieu.This work offers a comprehensive insight into the Knutby Filadelfia congregation, a group, that although notoriously charted by the media, has been hitherto unexplored by academics. It adds to the growing field of studies concerned with childhoods within new religions and expounds the dynamics of the defection process from the rarely applied perspective of children and youth themselves.
The brand new series from the author of Magnolia Parks! - Second star to the right and straight on to mourning ... A fairy tale retelling like no other from the imagination of Jessa Hastings! Never ... is an awfully long time. Growing up, Daphne always knew Peter Pan would come for her. The way he'd come for her mother, and her grandmother Wendy before that. The Darling girls. Their stories are all the same: the forever-young boy at their window after their thirteenth birthday, and the shimmering, magical land behind a star. When Peter doesn't show for Daphne until she's seventeen, inexplicably full-grown and with no excuse for his tardiness, Daphne doesn't know what to think. Still, she has always been told that Peter Pan is her destiny. It's beyond choice to take his hand and leap into the stars, no matter what comes next. But in Neverland, Peter's true colours begin to show. One moment, he's making Daphne's heart flutter, and the next, he's forgotten her entirely. So when Daphne stumbles into the path of Jamison Hook, the pirate son of Peter's nemesis, she lets herself get swept up in his vulgar charm, despite the warning signs. Both boys are trouble, and both have dangerous secrets about this strange fantasy land they call home and if she loses her heart to either one, Daphne might just lose herself, too.
Life as a work of LoveFrom Dr. Paula Bromberg: a continuation of renderings that span a lifetime of inquiry, spiritual conversations on themes opening us to a greater understanding. We awaken to realize the meaning within the life we are living-the deepest of human questions. This beautiful life of joy and sorrow are here to be lived, fully, passionately, with wonder and surprise.How to live poetically, musically, in a higher vibration. Notes from the Ocean is a distillation of a life's work-speaking to matters of the heart. This invitation: to remember the wisdom in our heart to manifest a life of wonder. Being who you are. This is the conversation as we listen to the harmony, become the music, pay attention until we open to each moment fully.Awakening into Love, a life saturated with song and understanding is beautiful: listen to the song that resonates within you and discover where the sacred and the everyday intersect. A resonance of ocean resides in each of us-may Notes from the Ocean carry the salt breeze and music across the land, the harmonious symphony of the universe, life itself as music, each of us embodied as our particular distinct musical note.-from Notes from the Ocean
Deep down, everyone, with very few exceptions, badly wants and needs clarity and assurance, especially when it comes to the deepest most profound existential questions of life--where did we come from (origin)? Why are we here (purpose)? What are we meant to do (morality)? And where are we going (destiny)? Much more, do heaven and hell exist? Is death the end of everything, or is there life in the hereafter? Thousands of Christians, at some point in their lives, admit being in doubt of their faith, especially when confronted with pressing questions on the Bible, God, Jesus, evil, death, suffering, science, evolution, etc. This book was painstakingly written to hopefully help provide philosophical and theological clarity and for them to be academically informed and be better assured of their Christian faith.As for the religious skeptics, and downright anti-theists, they similarly at some point may have been confronted with the same nagging question from the believers--What if you're wrong? This book is also written to enjoin them to assess the bases of their objections and justifications of their disbelief, inspire them to reconsider their positions, and keep an open-minded attitude to the gospel of Christ.

This is a book to be experienced, not simply read.The Alchemy of Becoming series sets out a methodology that empowers you to raise your level of consciousness to levels never imagined possible. The first book and level of this process, Being of Truth, laid a foundation of authenticity and personal truth. In this second installment, Being of Love, the journey continues as you discover that love is not just a feeling or emotion but rather a powerful, life-enhancing and life-creating force. Level 1 reframed fear to trust. In Level 2, love is claimed over and beyond fear.This is transformation. Not just inspiration, but transformation to a state of higher consciousness available to us all. Einstein claimed that no problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it. It is only in higher consciousness that the intractable issues of our times can be addressed. This applies equally to our individual lives be it our health, relationships, and to our sense of worth and well-being. Higher consciousness takes you from life happening to you, to life happening by you and expressed as you.The seven-stage alchemic process is the framework for transformation and while the process is universal, no two people will have the same experience. The experience is personalized to you, meaning that it is aligned to your unique vibrational makeup. This is a powerful, affirming aspect of this methodology as what is revealed to you can only be known by you. It all starts with you. Transforming yourself to be the alchemist of your own life while serving as a gateway for the change our world so desperately needs.

No other monarch has had the impact on English literature of King James VI of Scotland, and later James I of England. His version of the bible is still widely available, and praised for its poetic imagery. In this earlier book (first published in 1597), James took on the task of proving witches were real, and dangerous.Around this time other authors (such as Reginald Scott) were arguing that the fear of witchcraft was irrational and unfounded, and that any proof available was the result of panic, prejudice and sleight of hand. James however, who had prosecuted witches personally, believed that they were all too real, and servants of Satan besides. He would inspire later witch hunters, and also Shakespeare, who used the book as the basis for the witches in Macbeth.
What was the occult power of the Holy Spirit wielded by both Jesus and John? How did they obtain that power? Was it passed on to the priests of the Catholic Church through St. Peter? Can this power be used for evil purposes, or to command demonic spirits? What was the Black Mass? Has the Church ever been infiltrated by Satanists? These topics are dealt with in Tracy R. Twyman's book Hocus Pocus: The Magical Power of St. Peter. From the author of The Merovingian Mythos, Solomon's Treasure, and Mind-Controlled Sex Slaves and the CIA.

What is Satanism? Infamous members of the Order of Nine Angles (O9A) have answered this question with fascist ideology and acts of terrorism. The conviction of T. L. Othaos, however, is that the extremism and violence associated with O9A can be stripped away to reveal an underlying core of authentic Satanic belief and practice. This includes a life-affirming ethos, potent occult techniques, and a pantheon of Dark Gods and Goddesses who crave a better quality of human ally than O9A has thus far attracted. Othaos has founded the religion of Tenebrous Satanism in order to combine the most compelling components of O9A esotericism with an explicit emphasis on human flourishing, critical thinking, and personal excellence. In Nine Keys of Abyssal Darkness, she answers such questions as:Who is Satan and what mythological narratives inspire Satanists to conceptualize him as a constructive adversarial figure?Who are Satanism's enemies in the religious and political spheres and what must Satanists do to defeat them?What personal qualities must the Satanist cultivate to maximize their flourishing on both the earthly and spiritual levels?What disturbing acausal realities lurk behind our familiar causal world and why do all other religions deny these dark truths?What methods of meditation, divination, and ritual magick enable the Satanist to harness and unleash the powers of Darkness?Who are the Nekalah and what can the Satanist gain by forging an alliance with O9A's sinister deities of the Abyss?Rejecting the worst tendencies of O9A while still embracing the most alluringly dangerous aspects of Niner spirituality, Nine Keys of Abyssal Darkness defines Satanism as a religion of willful self-evolution, intelligent revolt against the status quo, fearless confrontation with cosmic horror, and uncompromising pursuit of creative strife.
