Friedrichstrasse Central
Author: Geoff Logan
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1728398770
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Friedrichstrasse Central follows on from the previous book, The Legacy of Two Gemini Knights. In the original book, fate demands a series of actions to bring about the beginning of the end-time. Often these demands go in cycles so that when one task is accomplished, another step can follow on. However, these actions are occasionally interrupted by life events or halted because they came too early. This happened seven hundred years ago and was only restarted when the Nazi party came to power in Germany in 1933. This is the story of how a number of unsung heroes who went through Friedrichstrasse Railway Station tried to progress Fate’s demands toward the next level. Iva Davies, like his predecessor, William McBride, attempted to find these past elements by traveling to places like Dresden, Edinburgh in Scotland, and the Greek island of Kastellorizo. Accompanied by his older German friend, Peter Maueraberger, Iva stumbled across aspects of the Templar treasure, the Jerusalem copper scroll, and the last iman of Islam. All of these pointed to the quest they were searching for. However, the path to these past secrets was filled with danger and intrigue for Iva Davies. And without the help of a rag doll, the Black Madonna statue, and Solomon’s ring, he would have likely not survived such an ordeal. In the end one can only ask, have these actions enhanced the legacy of the Gemini knights and the building of the last temple in Jerusalem? Perhaps only the reader can make this judgement for now and only wait until further things are revealed when a future text speaks at the dawn of the end-time.

Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
