Book Description
Death can straighten out even the hardest of hearts. It can also stalk its’ victims to the furthest depths of Hell, just as it haunts Eric Ramis. Ripped from his home to Falston Missouri, gangs and death found him, consuming him, ripping apart his sanity, soul, and life; leading him head first into a bullet. Eric escaped death once with a promise of atonement. Still the Grim Reaper pursued him to medical school, cursing him with A.I.D.S., then luring him back to Louisiana with the death of his aunt. Her house, her journals, the secrets of life, death, and immortality; all his inheritance. While depression, fear, and certain death shoved Eric deep within the world of Voodoo, disparity would leave him in complete and utter torment in Hell.

Book Description
No one said growing up was easy, and those who have are lying. For young Timothy Hawthorne growing up is lonely, confusing, and just a little bit frightening. Conveniently a child’s game, a Ouija board, changes Tim’s loneliness to friendship, confusion to disconcern, and frightfulness to terror. Timothy’s amazing new best friend is just that, amazing. He has the ability to make bullies hit themselves, to make unfair teachers trip and fall, and make objects appear out of nowhere. Most importantly he is invisible, but Samuel isn’t all the Ouija released. Unleashed is an evil eons older than the earth itself. Cruel, ruthless, and hungry for flesh it rips the skin from its still living victims. Not the police, not the adults, not even Timothy can stop this unnatural force before it possesses them all. Can Samuel prevent the carnage in store, more importantly does he want to?

Being at the top of the food chain doesn't cross your mind... until you're on the menu. Calynn Moore was going about her life, minding her own business when a stranger came knocking. She thought she was doing a good thing; a kindness by returning a lost pet to a tearful little girl, but she couldn't have been more wrong. Now she's a hostage to a family of other-worldly, homicidal, monsters that are fattening her up for their own version of a Thanksgiving dinner. With no hope of rescue or escape she's determined to go down fighting, but a single act of defiance opens a door to freedom. The catch? She has to trust one of the creatures holding her prisoner with her life. As time goes by and secret plans are put into play Calynn gets more than she bargained for as secrets are revealed and her life becomes more and more tied to the very monsters she's desperate to escape from. Now she's playing a deadly game of manipulation with the enemy waiting for the moment when one of them calls her bluff and catches her in the act, but will she lose her self in the process? Or will the one person she trusts to save her be her own destruction? Will she actually escape or be trapped in a world she never knew existed for the rest of her life? Is this the bad-luck of the draw or was it fate that brought her onto the doorstep of her doom?

Counting the Cost
Author: Art Lindsley
Publisher: ACU Press
ISBN: 0891125930
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
If Christians want to accelerate the world’s transition out of abject poverty, they need to examine the role of capitalism. Counting the Cost helps readers begin with the truth of Scripture. It then relies on the economic realities that come from our Godgiven design as the foundation for enabling readers to think critically about capitalism. We live in an unprecedented time in human history. The number of people living in abject poverty is decreasing at an unprecedented rate. Capitalism has played a major role in lifting people out of such poverty, yet many raise legitimate concerns. Does capitalism hurt the poor? Promote materialism? Harm the environment? Allow the rich to get richer at the expense of everyone else? Is capitalism really the best system for organizing societies and the economies that keep them running? This edited volume of articles by noted economists and theologians takes an honest and empathetic look at capitalism and its critiques from a biblical perspective.

The Cost of War
Author: Professor Stephen Garton
Publisher: Sydney University Press
ISBN: 1743326742
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
War has shaped Australian society profoundly. When we commemorate the sacrifices of the Anzacs, we rightly celebrate their bravery, but we do not always acknowledge the complex aftermath of combat. In The Cost of War, Stephen Garton traces the experiences of Australia’s veterans, and asks what we can learn from their stories. He considers the long-term effects of war on returned servicemen and women, on their families and communities, and on Australian public life. He describes attempts to respond to the physical and psychological wounds of combat, from the first victims of shellshock during WWI to more recent understandings of post-traumatic stress disorder. And he examines the political and social repercussions of war, including debates over how we should commemorate conflict and how society should respond to the needs of veterans. When the first edition of The Cost of War appeared in 1996, it offered a ground-breaking new perspective on the Anzac experience. In this new edition, Garton again makes a compelling case for a more nuanced understanding of the individual and collective costs of war.
