Pages : 90
Book Description
Are the lies you're being fed causing indigestion? Select truth nuggets instead. Are you under attack from misinformation bombardment? Seek shelter from the storm. Are you shaking your head at society's ever-changing norms of acceptability? Stand firm on the foundation of faith. Take a minute to catch your breath. Inhale deeply through your nose. Exhale slowly through your mouth. In the midst of the madness, don't lose sight of the message. The Bible reveals Who's ultimately in control. God made order out of chaos in the beginning, and He does what is humanly impossible. Pause, Ponder, Pray quotes Scripture and is followed by poetry or prose. Next comes the reader's opportunity to reflect, recalibrate, and respond before resuming whatever. Avoid being absorbed in the rat race Discover and assume your own pace Before things here get any worse Start each day with a Bible verse Mull over truth therein contained For from knowledge wisdom may be gained

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Throughout the horrifying months since the alien Vymalns conquered Earth, Kara Michaels has managed to elude capture. Until now. She is about to lose hope when she is rescued by Seeker Aiodhan Reil, an elite warrior of Tirios sent to Earth by the Praemons, precognizant children who can predict which Vymalns will threaten their homeworld. Although intimidated by his strength, Kara is drawn to Aiodhan’s air of mystery. Upon discovering that he is also an alien, she fears that his race will pose an additional threat to Earth’s freedom. Aiodan’s mission doesn’t include falling in love with a human female or liberating her father from an internment camp. He must find a way to keep his vows and still protect Kara, just as she must put aside her hatred of aliens to allow Aiodhan into her heart. Only then can they work together to rescue humankind from cruel enslavement. **Contains adult language and love scenes

The Haven Tontine - A Growing Danger
Author: Lady Adelle Bradford
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0557123437
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
Six young people came to the conclusion that the whole world was heading for disaster. The government was no longer anything vaguely resembling the picture most people had of it. The bureaucratic empire-¬builders, the special interest groups, the politicians themselves, for the most part, cared little about those people they supposedly represented and this was slowly becoming something entirely different, a kind of government of itself, by itself, for itself, self-protecting and self-perpetuating, but huge cracks were forming in its foundations. Overpopulation was rapidly proving old man Malthus to be correct in his doctrine that a finite object like the earth could not feed an infinite population. Instead of living, breeding, and dying in their mud huts and tin shacks without once ever questioning the way things were, they were shown all the marvels and wonders of flush toilets, the pleasure of a full belly, the power of a dollar, and, quite reasonably, they wanted it for themselves and their children.

Holy Disorders
Author: Edmund Crispin
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504088379
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
This 1945 classic British mystery from “a master of the whodunnit . . . combines a flawless plot, witty dialogue and a touch of surreal hilarity” (The New York Times Book Review). On holiday in the town of Tolnbridge with his butterfly net in hand, Prof. Gervase Fen, Oxford don of English Literature, is all set for a good frolic when he learns that the cathedral organist has been murdered. With Scotland Yard unable to make sense of the crime, Fen stands ready to step in. Whether he’s chasing butterflies or catching criminals, it’s all the same to this amateur sleuth with a penchant for literary allusions and an uncanny knack for solving the unsolvable: like why a small-town church musician would be mixed up with a local coven of witches—or a spy ring of Nazi sympathizers? Finding the answers provides endless amusement for Fen—and for readers as well—in this golden age English detective novel from Edmund Crispin, “an absolute must for devotees of cultivated crime fiction.” —Kirkus Reviews Praise for the mysteries of Edmund Crispin “A marvellous comic sense.” —P. D. James, New York Times–bestselling author of the Inspector Adam Dalgliesh series “Master of fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek mystery novels, a blend of John Dickson Carr, Michael Innes, M.R. James, and the Marx Brothers.” —Anthony Boucher, author of the Fergus O’Breen series “One of the most literate mystery writers of the twentieth century.” —The Boston Globe “Beneath a formidable exterior he had unsuspected depths of frivolity.” —Philip Larkin, author of A Girl in Winter “One of the last exponents of the classical English detective story.” —The Times (London)
