Burned Alive is the harrowing true story of David Poletz, who was horribly burned in an industrial accident in 1992. The story charts his course as a young man working his way up in the trades at an asphalt plant in Alberta, every bit a success story until the unthinkable happens. His life and body shattered, David looked life and death square in the face and through will, determination and a few good friends, pulled his way through the toughest times to make his life better. David hopes that by reading his story, others who may face similar challenges or who just like a good story, will find in these pages some hope, and maybe even some enlightenment. If this cautionary but ultimately uplifting story of one man''s struggle to overcome near-impossible odds can help or save just one person, then the effort to create it was more than worth it.

The lies told in the Garden, "you shall not die" and "you will become wise like God," (become a God), are the foundational pillars of paganism/nature worship. From this religion many proclaimed healing methods have evolved. They are an extension of pagan doctrine, not some healing modality simply discovered and used by pagans. Healing practices are the "right arm" for evangelism in the Neo-Pagan-New Age movement.God's system of health and healing is an integral part of sanctification in the restoration of man to reflect the image of his creator. The devil by deception, offers his counterfeit system of healing to entice man to give to him the honorand worship due only to Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today there are many who are more interested in "health at any cost than God's will at any price."This book exposes the terrible spiritual dangers posed by the New Age holistic health movement, which combines valid healing remedies with various mystical healing arts. Valuable insights are given herein into the traps of the paranormal from a Christian perspective.

From the shadows of its aftertime, memory ensouls the figures in an artist’s paintings and brightens the wraiths of a woman’s long-ago ebullient companions. In the wake of the assassination, a disabled man broods over his failing marriage, a school teacher prepares for a party, a lawyer relives the loss of his wife, a black woman mourns President Kennedy’s death. During Freedom Summer, a family leaves Louisiana and its spirit pursues them. An Afterword honors Proust’s belief that an artist’s work should create its own Posterity.
