"24 year old ed Becker purchases a house for himself and his expecting wife; a two-flat apartment building, which would allow them to live in one apartment and rent the other. What Ed doesn't know, is that there are already tenants residing in this building that he cannot evict ... Skeptical and street-smart, Ed has a difficult time coming to the realization that this apartment is home to the paranormal. As tensions begin to build between his spouse and himself, he attributes the stress to the new lifestyle they had accumulated, as both property owners and new parents. Coupled with the efforts of working long hours and restoring a dilapidated home, Ed ignores the unusual happenings that have no viable explanation. And what happens when something that wants to be noticed goes unacknowledged? Things escalate ... Read this hauntingly true story, of one of the earliest televised exorcisms in the nation, brought to the forefront by NBC. Interviewed and reported by nationally known news correspondent, Carole Simpson, and conducted by nationally known psychic Joseph DeLouise and exorcist, Rev. William Derl-Davis. Go behind the scenes of the known history of this truly haunted home--one that shattered the dreams of a young couple, and the family that can never leave it."--Page 4 of cover

An electrifying Christian thriller....God can go anywhere. But sending an old Bible Belt Baptist preacher into the voodoo heartland of Africa to fight an incurable killer virus and a Nephilim jungle giant with 12 fingers, two rows of teeth and a penchant for breaking necks ... Now that s a totally different story.In Grogan s second book of the God s Mysterious Tower series [Exorcism At Midnight is the first], Pastor Rodney Coleman is back, called out of his comfortable, family-loving, churchgoing lifestyle by the Catholic Church. The Archbishop of Canterbury is convinced an ancient apocalyptic Scripture found in the secret catacombs beneath the Vatican identifies Pastor Coleman as God s chosen emissary, designated to save the earth from destruction. Hearing only bits and pieces of the plan, its monumental odds for failure and the indestructible foes of darkness against whom he must clash, Pastor Coleman thinks a much better idea would be to go knocking on Bishop T.D. Jakes door.The dismal advice he receives from the Chief Liaison to the Central Intelligence Agency s world health unit, only reinforces his reluctant status as the Church s Miracle Man.. She tells him to update his will, get to know his local undertaker and stare incessantly at his family. Chances are, he won t ever see them again.The masterful incision of entangled subplots and unpredictable foes reaches all the back to pre-flood years when giants, dwarfs and animal-human hybrids walked the earth, and is relentlessly showcased during Pastor Coleman s torturous journey through the savage African jungle. The hungry bellies of the dark compete for a taste of his undefiled American flesh. The voodoo priests would like to cut off his toes for a juju session with their gods.Catholic Christians will find an intriguing, in-depth perspective on the Church s Secret Shadow groups such as the Illuminati Order, Ancient Order of Hibernians and Opus De, as well as their enigmatic connection to the United States government. Also embedded in the jungle mayhem are tragic reminders of how dangerous Catholic missionary work really is. Between the crocodiles and snakes and murderous African rebel groups roaming from village to village, missionary life can be viewed as the ultimate example of self-sacrifice in the Kingdom of God.The virus is 100% fatal. There is not cure. The helpless hoards of stricken villagers wear the face of death long before they're zipped into the darkness of their body bags and hauled off to a mass grave of fire: -- "In the background, a funeral procession with a small crowd of mourners and wooden caskets made its way to a distant burial ground. With flowing tears and mouths painfully wide, old women wrapped in checkered black cloths, filled the camera lenses with the rawness of the hour. There was an unmistakable sadness tormenting their shattered faces, a pitiful state of being that leaped off the big screen and into my bleeding heart. It was as though they were caught in a freeze frame of extinction, waiting their turn as the jagged edges of life sickled them down like unwanted weeds and left them to rot in the noonday sun." --Although most Christians will find the book spiritually inspiring, in the final analysis, The Blood Tears of Jesus is a provocative spiritual gut check, a measurement of each Christian s own personal acceptance or rejection of uncomfortable truths. For preacher and teachers, the book will be an extraordinary treasure trove of enlightened thought, delving into the forbidden fruit of the antediluvian period of fallen angels, insufferable giants (including the ones that Moses spies saw and young David killed) and the spread of idolatry absorbed and cleverly disguised in the one-world government advocacy we know it today.Christians, especially pastors and preachers, should relish the journey, knowing once they ve read the book, they will never be the same."

Poetry. In this wry, intimate, and heartbreaking collection, Chris Hayes records the exact weight of generational trauma, mental and physical illness, addiction, marital alienation, self alienation: that is, all the general malfuckery that comes with living in bodies that often refuse to cooperate with what we want or whatever we've promised others. What makes this examination of ordinary American dysfunction extraordinary is Hayes's positively dazzling way with language. The poems here are as carefully constructed as the finest bespoke suit, and yet they retain a musical ease and integrity of line that reveal a poet who's expertly sure of his craft. Hayes's sense of personal authenticity, philosophical maturity, and literary intelligence here are anything but ordinary. A stunning collection of poems.--Erin Belieu

What is the purpose of studying history? How do we reflect on contemporary life from a historical perspective, and can such reflection help us better understand ourselves, the world around us, and the God we worship and serve? Written by an accomplished historian, award-winning author, public evangelical spokesman, and respected teacher, this introductory textbook shows why Christians should study history, how faith is brought to bear on our understanding of the past, and how studying the past can help us more effectively love God and others. John Fea shows that deep historical thinking can relieve us of our narcissism; cultivate humility, hospitality, and love; and transform our lives more fully into the image of Jesus Christ. The first edition of this book has been used widely in Christian colleges across the country. The second edition provides an updated introduction to the study of history and the historian's vocation. The book has also been revised throughout and incorporates Fea's reflections on this topic from throughout the past 10 years.

Poetry. "Timothy Liu is a poet faithful to forms of unruliness; devoted to the unembellished and unabashed. Equally committed to a poetic craft that is capable of rearranging reality from the chaos of desire and its surplus of frustration, in his work to date--now organized into major and minor arcana culled from personal archives of encounter and memory, and from an alertness to world politics and history--he has mastered various kinds of forms into works that are unmistakably his own...Inscribing the illusions and disappointment of personality with human relations as subjected to the dramaturgy of sex and desire, Liu commands that we care insomuch as outrageousness and generosity are finally devotion to 'The things loved least / loved at last.'"--Roberto Tejada from the "Foreword"

Accessible, challenging, funny, and one of the best reads on how to love others in any situation. Love and hospitality can change the way you see the world and others. That's exactly what modern-day theologian, Richard Beck, experienced when he first led a Bible study at a local maximum security prison. Beck believed the promise of Matthew 25 that states when we visit the prisoner, we encounter Jesus. Sure enough, God met Beck in prison. With his signature combination of biblical reflection, theological reasoning, and psychological insight, Beck shows how God always meets us when we entertain the marginalized, the oppressed, and the refugee. Stories from Beck's own life illustrate this truth -- God comes to him in the poor, the crippled, the smelly. Psychological experiments show how we are predisposed to appreciate those who are similar to us and avoid those who are unlike us. The call of the gospel, however, is to override those impulses with compassion, to "widen the circle of our affection." In the end, Beck turns to the Little Way of St. Thérèse of Lisieux for guidance in doing even the smallest acts with kindness, and he lays out a path that any of us can follow.
