The thousand-year Empire of Sammos, the Holy Mother of Cities, is dying. The Krahl, sublime ruler of the pagan Odrum, has encircled its once-glittering capital, Sammkos, on both land and sea and is ready to deliver the last, killing blow. And now it seems that Fate has chosen a wounded, betrayed, fearful man to gather what scant hope remains in the beleaguered City. For Agriabus, Prefect of the Purple, has suffered the unendurable betrayal of his own son, who has wounded him in an impetuous duel before fleeing to the Krahl, must confront an increasingly mad Lord Engineer who wants to find salvation only in ancient, dark arts, and try to steel an Emperor who can only abase himself within the Shrine of Sammos, surrounded by flickering shadows, and past failures.And time is running out.
This book is a tale of two men, eight centuries apart, who both possess a level of religious and social tolerance that seems to have gone obsolete. Daniel Abdel Razak is a world-renowned Egyptian 21st archaeologist and one of the world's leading experts on demotic writing. Despite his pedigree, Faith intervenes when ancient manuscripts dating back to the 13th century are discovered during the Arab spring. They are written and narrated by an otherwise forgotten mysterious historical figure by the name of 'Ibn Al Bitar.'As Danny immerses himself in the adventurous and enthralling world of Ibn Al Bitar, he discovers a greater understanding of that historical period, religion, and more importantly, humanity.
Is God a baptized Catholic? What do we know before we are taught the "right" answers? How does "woman" come to know her own instinctive wild feminine self within the constraints of a patriarchal culture that defines her as flawed from birth? This is the second in a three-part series of one woman's independent and courageous journey to heal clinical depression and weave body, mind and soul into wholeness. Pearl speaks in her own voice through many dreams that offer deep insights over years of writing. Eventually, she begins to recognize vestiges of the Sumerian goddess, Inanna, Queen of Heaven, as strange, weird symbols emerge from the depths of her psyche. In Authoring Self: A Journey through Dreams to the Feminine, Pearl struggles to the edges of consciousness to uproot and heal deeply embedded unconscious beliefs in a vengeful punishing Old Testament God. Authoring Self begins in Maryknoll Center, Ossining, New York, 4,000 miles from her Alberta farm home where she experiences deep archetypal dreams and visions and learns about the transpersonal. In search of her self, Pearl must learn a whole new language and excavate the many layers of embedded patriarchy to become her own authority. Many Jungian thinkers, such as Sylvia Perera, identify these patterns as the emergence of the sacred feminine. Pearl Gregor was born and raised in northern Alberta. She became an educator, administrator, provincial government consultant and along the way, a radical feminist. She came to writing late in life. At age 43, in a desperate search to heal clincial depression, Pearl found the inner world of meditation and dreams. The story begins in Book I in the Dreams Along the Way series, I, the Woman, Planted the Tree: A Journey through Dreams to the feminine, which was published in December 2018. Now, healing the aftermath of repressed trauma takes Pearl even deeper into the uncharted territory of psyche. Authoring Self: A Journey through Dreams to the Feminine is the next part of the story of that navigation as told through deeper and deeper work with each new dream experience.

When Christians condemn Jews for killing Christ it shows a poor understanding of the Bible. The Jews were not looking to Jesus to free them from sin. They already had that covered by the sacrifices in the Temple. They expected Him to free them from Roman oppression in the same way that Moses freed them from slavery.
A Nation living in Custody - Spring Thunder - The nation has been kidnapped by an evil spirit, the kingdom of heaven is at hand, but they are not able to go into it. They are an unfortunate tribe, and the Kingdom of God is in a very close proximity, but they are detained by the evil gods in the heavens, and cannot go in.
Indeed a book unwritten in over 400 years. the book price is marginal; but the information value is indispensable. many sure surprises here to ponder at once. Most people are under the impression that what has transpired in the making of modern Jewish Israel has been a Biblical concept, even promised from the times before and of the New Testament, yet this is patently false. The English translation of the Bible is solely responsible for the making and establishment of modern Jewish Israel, and there is no doubt that this could not have happened without the word program found in the English Bible versions. Beginning with Wycliffe modern English was born as was the term Jew, and Tyndale set the Bible word vernacular program in stone through the prism of a Jewish Talmudic word system, followed by all subsequent translations unto the K.J.V. It is a curious and interesting fact that this system has been followed by all modern English Bible translations to this day. It is surprising to most people that such words as Jew, and Gentile, are not original to the Scriptures, but imposed on them, and their original meanings have been turned on their heads. There is a destructive anti-Christian paradigm, purportedly of Biblical roots sweeping over the world at this time more than ever. Yet the real Bible story is gone unnoticed. The good news here is that our Ethnicity, our Gentility and our Nationality, are not about our race or country, but in fact are really all about our spiritual nature.

Pinder's The Indulgence resonates with our times. It is a courtroom drama about what happens when love turns to hate and everyone turns to the law. The endorsements say it all: "The Indulgence is a gripping, powerful read. The protagonist, actress Lucinda Yates, is a compellingly original character, wonderfully impossible to categorize. She is articulate and self-reflecting; her sexuality is in free flow; she belongs to no camp. Yet she is caught in the compulsion of a ruinous, limiting relationship. Hers is an heroic struggle to escape the tragedy of falling in love with someone who does not have the capacity to return that love." Juliet Stevenson, British stage and screen actress (Truly, Madly, Deeply; Bend it Like Beckham; Lawrence Olivier Award, Best Actress) "The book is wonderful, full of elegance, and the narrative - not to mention the writing - so powerful. Such story-telling. A triumph." Hugh Brody, filmmaker and author (Maps and Dreams; The Other Side of Eden) "This is a powerful, blistering novel, a startling premise, a page turner, beautifully written, a novel that will remain with me for a long time. There are so many layers, such a myriad of involving and troubling themes that left me thinking way beyond the page... [A] cracking story, one that engages the reader right down to the wire." Gillian Stern, freelance editor in the U.K.
As Bob Proctor points out in the forward, this book separates itself from others because of its ability to help teach you how to become both self-aware and simply-aware. When you grow both levels of awareness you achieve higher states of consciousness in which your perspective becomes much greater. Perspective is the key of the mind that opens all the locks that imprison our happiness. To gain a healthy perspective one must step back within their own mind, to look at the bigger picture and to move beyond their self-awareness and limited self-interest into a state of simple-awareness. This book provides you with all the tools you need to become both self-aware and simply-aware so that you may widen your perspective and unlock your happiness and fulfillment. There is only one requirement, you must be willing to do the work. There is absolutely nothing more important than taking action in the present moment. Understanding and knowing is great but taking real action towards aligning your behaviours with your beliefs is what separates the successful from the masses. Be authentic and keep smiling :)

In August 1988, Jesus Christ appeared to me in a supernatural and divine presence which was both unbelievable and indescribable. He said "follow me". It was the beginning of a spiritual transformation, which I knew to be divine in origin and divine in destiny! It was followed by a series of inspired events which were unquestionably a continuation of the invitation from Jesus. There are some things which can never be explained to a person who doesn't believe, but once you believe no explanation is needed. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior thirty years ago and since then I have been on this most fascinating spiritual journey!Rarely have I doubted and I continue to grow in faith. I am still a sinner and I still wonder what it all means. There are many times I wonder how Jesus is going to surprise me next, but He always passes any expectations that I might have. This is my story and I often wonder if other people have experienced anything similar. Could my story also be your story?I know that I must write and share my story, by giving thanks and praise to God the Giver of all good things. Come join me as I share my journey. Thank-you Jesus!!!
