Pages : 387
Book Description
Sink your teeth into a smorgasbord of macabre morsels laced with horrific humor in this all-new Blood Lite collection! Whether you shriek with laughter or scream in fear . . . well, that’s simply a matter of taste. Jim Butcher’s wizardly PI Harry Dresden pranks some high-tech monster seekers—and attempts to save a friend’s son whose life-energy is slowly being drained by an unknown adversary in “I Was a Teenage Bigfoot.” The Author from Hell has dropped dead, but a stressed-out editor is harassed by her emails from beyond the grave in Sherrilyn Kenyon’s “A Day in the Life.” The flesh is weak— and possibly even rotting—as a teenage virgin werewolf discovers on a visit to a brothel in Kelley Armstrong’s “V Plates.” Murder comes alive in “Mannequin,” by Heather Graham, as two thrill-seeking couples “axe” for trouble at a B&B with a bloody history. Plus twenty-six other tales to tempt and terrorize you. . . .

Mouth of the Donkey
Author: Laura Duhan-Kaplan
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725259052
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
The Hebrew Bible is filled with animals. Snakes and ravens share meals with people; donkeys and sheep work alongside us; eagles and lions inspire us; locusts warn us. How should we read their stories? What can they teach us about ecology, spirituality, and ethics? Author Laura Duhan-Kaplan explores these questions, weaving together biology, Kabbalah, rabbinic midrash, Indigenous wisdom, modern literary methods, and personal experiences. She re-imagines Jacob’s sheep as family, Balaam’s donkey as a spiritual director, Eve’s snake as a misguided helper. Finally, Rabbi Laura invites metaphorical eagles, locusts, and mother bears to help us see anew, confront human violence, and raise children who live peacefully on the land.

Dark-Light

Publisher: Page Publishing Inc

Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Everybody wants the truth until they hear it. Well, what if everything we were taught about creation, heaven and hell, aliens, angels, and, of course, demons was completely wrong, worse than it is already. The Dark-Light created us to blend together and live in a wonderful harmony, but the Dark, alone, wanted total control, as most evil does, so the Light must fight to keep the scales even. This is the real story of the Earth. After Dark-Light split into Adem and Lilith, they could not fight each other, so they decided to create a champion, known as a Brielle, to fight in their spot. The Righteous fights for the Light and for truth and justice whereas Armageddon fights for the Dark and all that follows evil. Lilith and Adem each create seven subordinates, known as Murmuhdons, but we call them the seven deadly sins and the seven righteous virtues, who serve the Brielle on Earth as they battle for control of the world and the universe. If we could just come together as one, we would be a prosperous and gorgeous world, but as always, you can’t have good without bad. Not all people are bad. Those are who the Righteous, the world’s first superhero, is fighting for. Destroying the Light is all that Armageddon is fighting for, and our way of life depends on the winner...

Noah as Antihero
Author: Rhonda Burnette-Bletsch
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351720694
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
This collection of essays by biblical scholars is the first book-length treatment of the 2014 film Noah, directed by Darren Aronofsky. The film has proved to be of great interest to scholars working on the interface between the Bible and popular culture, not only because it was heralded as the first of a new generation of biblical blockbusters, but also because of its bold, provocative, and yet unusually nuanced approach to the interpretation and use of the Noah tradition, in both its biblical and extra-biblical forms. The book’s chapters, written by both well-established and up-and-coming scholars, engage with and analyze a broad range of issues raised by the film, including: its employment and interpretation of the ancient Noah traditions; its engagement with contemporary environmental themes and representation of non-human animals; its place within the history of cinematic depictions of the flood, status as an ‘epic’, and associated relationship to spectacle; the theological implications of its representation of a hidden and silent Creator and responses to perceived revelation; the controversies surrounding its reception among religious audiences, especially in the Muslim world; and the nature and implications of its convoluted racial and gender politics. Noah as Antihero will be of considerable interest to scholars conducting research in the areas of religion and film, contemporary hermeneutics, reception history, religion and popular culture, feminist criticism, and ecological ethics.

R.U.S.H.
Author: David Hobrath
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1645692221
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 55
Book Description
This workbook is not a typical Bible study. Properly applied, this will be a major part of the Christian legacy you leave your children for generations to come. So often when discussing scripture with friends and students, few can recall much detail of past studies they have participated in and almost none can remember where to find that one verse that inspired them, sometimes even just a few weeks earlier. Taking notes helps but only in the short term for most of the people I have questioned. With this tool, that will never happen again. The material makes for a quick study; the whole text can be read out loud in less than thirty-five minutes. It is the layout that makes the difference. What we have here is not a meal, but rather sets the table for the rest of your life. Think about it. You will never have to do the dishes again! As you leaf through the material, you will find on the left page four or five books of the Bible in order, with a summary, the author, how Christ is revealed, and a verse or two from that book. On the facing page, the same four or five books with no commentary, just blanks and lined for notes. This allows you to place the most inspiring verses or observations in the journal, as your Sunday school or church Bible study travels through scripture. Can you imagine rereading all those verses and illustrations, stories, and inspiring scriptural events that you will collect over the years? Think of the impact it will have if one of your grandchildren could read your summary of every book in the Bible written from your own hand one hundred years from today, should the Lord tarry. That is a legacy. That is this book. Please visit the website rushbiblestudy.com

Pages : 212
Book Description
In a distant future, humanity has abandoned a poisoned and dying Earth and now resides among the stars. The fate of their former home rests in the hands of CORE (Central Organization of Rejuvenating Earth), while time travel is strictly controlled by The Corporation and their team of Time Escorts. These skilled escorts accompany civilians on journeys to the past, ensuring that nothing is altered. But when Time Escort Michal is fired for saving a young girl from death in the past, he becomes determined to prove that changing the course of history for good is the right thing to do. Though his time-traveling watch is confiscated, Michal manages to secure another one and embarks on a series of vigilante missions to help those in need. Meanwhile, fellow Escorts Jacob and Noah are pulled from their own assignments and given a new mission: stop Michal at all costs. They are told that if he succeeds in altering the past, it will have disastrous consequences for their present reality. However, there is more at play than meets the eye, and Michal's watch holds the key to a deeper agenda. Not only does it allow him to travel through time, but it also has the power to transport him to the future. As Michal takes a bold risk by attempting to change the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in hopes of preventing World War One, Jacob and Noah race against time to stop him. But unbeknownst to them, a shadowy government plots to rise and reclaim control over Earth as they know it.
