Book Description
CHARLIE Police Chief Charles LeRoy Knight had never in his entire career investigated a murder. Oh ya, there'd been some kind of suspicious deaths in the past, but none quite like Maude Fitzbaum. Charlie doubted very much that Maude had willingly swallowed coffee laced with arsenic. And if that was true, then someone else had done the 'lacing'. And that made it homicide. He sincerely wished the St. Luther Police Department had a CSI team like on television. He held the autopsy report in one hand, reading glasses in the other. It was a hard report to digest. Charlie recalled Dr. Phelps Magritty's words when he'd delivered the official report to him. "Well, she was in pretty good health, I'll tell you. Signs of aging like would be in all of us of a certain age." He put a fresh cigar in the corner of his mouth and spoke around it. "But then there's the fact that sometime on that Sunday morning, just before she started playing the organ, she took in a whole lot of arsenic and it was probably in her coffee." "Good Lord Almighty!" Charlie said. Dr.Magritty didn't think the Lord Almighty had much to do with Maude's death and he told Charlie just that. "'With malice aforethought,'" he said. "I always thought that a spiffy turn of phrase. "If you're hoping to find this has been going on awhile, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. We'll test all that natural crap she had, but I'm thinking this was a one-fell-swoop poisoning, not a regular ingestion, like somebody lacing her morning oatmeal." The police chief just nodded. Phelps reached the door to Charlie's office, took the unlit cigar from his mouth, and turned back. "The biggest question in my mind is, why?" He left without waiting for a response

Book Description
Pastor's wife, Kirstie Donovan, lives life in a fishbowl, so when she hops on the back of a bright pink motorcycle, tongues start to wag at the conservative, century-old First Independent Christian Community Church of Eels Falls. Kirstie loves roaring down a road less traveled by most women over forty, but she's not just riding her bike for the fun of it. Kirstie has a ministry. However, certain church members have secrets to hide, and when God uses Kirstie's ministry to fill the pews with leather-clad, tattooed bikers, those secrets could be exposed... and some will stop at nothing to hide the truth. Join Kirstie and her motorcycle "gang"—two church matrons and a mouthy, gum-smacking non-church member—as they discover that road-toughened bikers are quite capable of ministering to others, and faith is fortified in the most unexpected ways.

Book Description
On 13 June 1525, Martin Luther married Katharina von Bora, a former nun, in a private ceremony officiated by city preacher Johann Bugenhagen. Whilst Luther was not the first former monk or Reformer to marry, his marriage immediately became one of the iconic episodes of the Protestant Reformation. From that point on, the marital status of clergy would be a pivotal dividing line between the Catholic and Protestant churches. Tackling the early stages of this divide, this book provides a fresh assessment of clerical marriage in the first half of the sixteenth century, when the debates were undecided and the intellectual and institutional situation remained fluid and changeable. It investigates the way that clerical marriage was received, and viewed in the dioceses of Mainz and Magdeburg under Archbishop Albrecht of Brandenburg from 1513 to 1545. By concentrating on a cross-section of rural and urban settings from three key regions within this territory - Saxony, Franconia, and Swabia - the study is able to present a broad comparison of reactions to this contentious issue. Although the marital status of the clergy remains perhaps the most identifiable difference between Protestant and Roman Catholic churches, remarkably little research has been done on how the shift from a "celibate" to a married clergy took place during the Reformation in Germany or what reactions such a move elicited. As such, this book will be welcomed by all those wishing to gain greater insight, not only into the theological debates, but also into the interactions between social identity, governance, and religious practice.
