Belief in God is printed on the hearts of children, but just like adults, they too have big questions about Him. "Where Does God Live?" attempts to explain one of God's chief attributes, His omnipresence, to a young audience - clearing up many misconceptions along the way. It is colorfully and imaginatively illustrated because beauty is just as important to a child's soul as reason. This is the first book in a series answering difficult questions kids have about God, written by James M. Thayer.
- Sarah Stryker is an anomaly; a woman gifted with extraordinary power but also cursed with immense turmoil. She is a twenty-year-old meta-human who has had to grow up way too fast after surviving a brutal abduction, losing her mother in the same year, and being recruited into the organization of the deadliest women on the planet, The Pride. Now just two years later Sarah is an exile, forced to fight against the army that had once been the source of her salvation. The Pride has gone rogue, maiming, and murdering all men who cross their path, quickly becoming the most dominant force in the western hemisphere. The woman responsible for The Pride's corruption is another Feline named Anastasia. She is a perverse sadist with a thirst for violence and is the self-appointed Queen of the global empire. The first person targeted after this new order is Amy, Sarah's younger sister who has long been overlooked by The Pride due to her naivety and kind-hearted nature. It isn't long before Amy gets swept up in her older sibling's problems and out of loyalty and concern insists on joining her in the hunt for Anastasia. Fortunately, the sisters aren't alone. They are soon joined by a former gang leader and member of The Pride Carmen Rivera, who has since defected after her fiancé's disappearance. The three women ride to Georgetown Seattle equipped with intel and the ever-knowing watchful eye of Kyle Harper; A telepath and a man said to have the highest IQ on Earth. Sarah hopes to lead her teammates to a sweeping victory and avoid trouble with the locals, but trouble finds her in the form of renowned boxer Maryam Bahira, who is eager to find a formidable opponent to match her strength and battle instincts. Sarah also gains greater insight into her psyche and the haunting truth about her abduction two years ago. All of this is leading to the ultimate showdown, a battle against a woman so evil that a single look from her is said to cripple a man forever.

Esta propuesta editorial colectiva, cristalizada en El ojo intermedial II: hibridaciones genéricas y mediales, exploraalgunas perspectivas intermediales de los estudios cinematográficos. El reflejo de la compleja realidad mediáticacontemporánea se hace patente en la experimentación genérica y las propuestas híbridas, como la novela film, el makingof, el b-roll, la e-literatura, la ficción documentada, el cine verde, la acción real-animada o el papel constructivo de lamúsica. En ella consignamos pesquisas emprendidas desde el grupo de investigación al que pertenecemos los editores y parte de los autores aquí publicados: el Seminario de Estudios Cinematográficos (SEC) vinculado al Posgrado en Ciencias del Lenguaje del Instituto de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades "Alfonso Vélez Pliego" de la Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla.Los capítulos incluidos en esta edición son producto de las propuestas temáticas convocadas en la Cuarta (2018) y laQuinta (2021) Jornadas de Estudios Cinematográficos delSEC, realizadas en la ciudad de Puebla. Más allá de la indagación intertextual o de la tradición filmoliteraria comparatista, identificada con frecuencia bajo la etiqueta de teoría de la adaptación, los acercamientos agrupados en estos librospromueven en nuestro campo un sugerente paradigma descentrado de estudios intermediales del cine, que haga justiciaa la compleja realidad mediática contemporánea.

Η ΖΩΗ ΜΑΣ (our life) is a homage and a spiritual journey to our origins, our place of birth. I wanted to learn about our family's life in Kefalonia and its trials and tribulations in some very challenging times. Its occupation by the Axis Powers in WWII, the subsequent Greek Civil War, and the devasting earthquake that caused great damage to much of Kefalonia, aggravating the severe poverty that most Kefalonians were already experiencing. I also thought it would be a lost opportunity for us not to share our family's story with our descendants and the subsequent emigration to America.In addition to the family history, "Our Life" compares democracy versus communism, the American and Greek Civil Wars and their impact on each country, the fundamental issue of slavery and why it was so vile, criminal, and wrong, and the plight and betrayal of the American Indians as a result of the migration of the white men to the Americas.My book also outlines the seminal impact of the initial Greek victories over Italy in WWII and their significant ramifications to the world, and explains how a young Evzone's sacrifice reinforces and represents the strong and unconditional love of freedom of the Greek people.This book was hard for me to write as some of the discussions of our past were difficult and heart-wrenching, but our story had to be told for the benefit of our descendants. I hope you will feel these same emotions as you read Our Life and that my book will empower and motivate you and your descendants to be the best you can be.Bottom line, I want our Greek descendants not to forget us, and most important, never forget who they are and where we came from!

"Grace has quickly become one of my favorite authors of Austen-inspired fiction. Her love of Austen's characters and the Regency era shine through in all of her novels." Diary of an Eccentric Snowbound at Hartfield Sweet, Austen-inspired treats, perfect with a cup of tea. Full of hope and ripe with possibility, sweet tea tales refresh the heart with optimism and anticipation. Snowbound at Hartfield Colonel Fitzwilliam should have been happy facing retirement. No more Napoleon, no more tromping the Continent, and his distant cousin had unexpectedly left him an estate. What was more, two of his favorite people, Darcy and Elizabeth, were travelling with him to visit his new home. But the colonel wasn't happy, not when he was forced to watch Darcy exchanging enamored glances with his wife. No, he wanted to pitch his cousin out the window. It didn't help when Darcy kept lecturing him on the joys of wedded life- as if women like Elizabeth Darcy grew on every tree.Then the snow started. Now they were stranded at the home of George and Emma Knightley, another intolerable, blissfully wedded couple who wanted nothing more than to see his bachelor days come to an end. Thank heavens they never thought of matching him with the proud spinster who had also been caught in the storm. That would have been utterly intolerable. Or would it?From the award winning author of Given Good Principles, Remember the Past and Mistaking Her Character, Sweet Tea short stories offer the perfect bite to transport readers back to the Regency era for the first days of new love.
It's time for people on different "sides" of polarizing issues to extend grace to each other for the cause of Christ. We can choose to respond to any situation with love and understanding without compromising our faith. Unity and truth are not mutually exclusive. Followers of Jesus Christ can no longer be consumed by secular events and processes. We must focus our eyes on eternity. The Deed & Truth Journal is the action guide designed to help you, your family and your church with everyday decisions that honor God's plan for diversity, equity, and inclusion. This journal is a companion to the book Faith Beyond Lip Service. Read Faith Beyond Lip Service for the foundational principles that challenge us to look at our beliefs and actions relative to DEI through the lens of the word of God instead of our bias or political affiliation. You can read the devotions and complete the exercises by yourself, in your small group, or as a part of bible study. Together we will explore Christ's examples for engaging, evangelizing, and discipling people from all walks of life. We will also take a deep look within to see if our deeply held beliefs are from God or man. Let's unify as the body of Christ and fight the real enemy together. Satan knows that deception leads to division and division leads to destruction. Matthew 12:25 says, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. With each passing day it gets harder to differentiate the current news headlines from the bible. It's more apparent than ever that we are living in the last days. It's time for the church to take its rightful place in the work of redemption and reconciliation. The first step is to commit to moving our faith beyond lip service. This will require us to do the hard work of putting down our stones, picking up our crosses, and following Christ. Start by taking the Faith-based COMMIT self-assessment at: https://www.lawanaharris.com/christ-centereddei Our mission is clear. "Go and make disciples of all nations." (Matthew 28:19)
DoomsDay Dan is a story steeped in nostalgia for simpler times. Times when honor, duty, and service were the threads woven into the fabric of society. It is also a story about how enduring friendships, the chaos and turmoil of war, and grief, can transform a person. On a June evening in Lafayette Square Park, law enforcement forcefully cleared a group assembled to protest racial injustice. The police action left one man in a coma. Known as DoomsDay Dan, he made Lafayette Park his home, sleeping in a tent at night and protesting by day. His dissent was so prolific that he was considered the most famous of Lafayette Park protesters. As doctors and nurses treat his injuries and wait for him to regain consciousness, they discover not all is as it appears with DoomsDay Dan. DoomsDay is a man with a complicated past. The patient they tend to served his country for over 3 decades, but after profound loss, rather than spiral into depression, he took action, making his voice heard in hopes someone would listen. This is DoomsDay's story.
