When the car sailed over the embankment carrying the four members of the pulpit committee, Mildred Budge called out, "Jesus saves." The others heard it, but they were also experiencing their own quick flashes of insight. Liz, a serial widow, felt unsatisfied with her life. She wanted more. Sailing toward her death, she still did. Sam, who had turned the steering wheel that had sent them over the embankment, was looking forward to the crash. He wanted to feel it -- the hard slam of collision. His hands held the wheel tightly, bracing for it. Jake smiled. He resisted holding Mildred's hand, because black men still didn't touch white women in the where he lived. And he took note of the wonder of the experience that was like flying. 'So, this is what it's like -- to fly. To live.' And then the car touched down hard and slammed into a tree. And when they could speak, their conversation was different than it had been moments before. Life was different. What they really wanted was not what they thought. But in order to pursue it, they had to get out of the ravine where they had landed. And they had to work together to get home. This is a story about "Jesus saves" and how that message gets lived out in people who know the gospel and believe it. If you love a Christian story about real people, you'll enjoy this second book in the Mildred Budge series. Daphne Simpkins writes about church life in the South through her Mildred Budge books.

Darphopia: The Godless Land by R. J. F. (3 Reviews)    Price verified 6 minutes ago

Darphopia is the godless land. God was felled many years ago, his power was stolen and dispersed across the land, and years later, Darphopia was born. This is a land of the future that is heavily rooted in the past. A land of monarchies, classes, and greed. The Darphopians have a culture all their own in which technology no longer exists; there is no need for it when everyone has access to the power of God, now deemed the Power Omnipotent. In Bladelheim, one of the three reigning kingdoms, there is tension between Prince Riki Yamamoto and his brother Prince Akuni. The kingdom is on the verge of bankruptcy, and while Prince Akuni wishes to free the kingdom's Slaves, Prince Riki acknowledges that the Slave trade is their largest source of income and would rather find another way. However, when the king steps down, and Prince Akuni takes his place, he banishes his brother Riki to the wilds of Darphopia. Stripped of the status of Royal, Riki travels across Darphopia wondering how he might take Bladelheim back from his brother and ensure that his kingdom remains safe under his rule. And perhaps Riki will learn much about himself along the way. Darphopia is a fantasy series about a land based on British and Japanese culture, and it depicts a people who are disenchanted with God and whose ancestors killed God and usurped His power.

From Meidelach to Matriarchs ~ A Journal: Jewish Women of Yesteryear to Inspire your Today by Mirta Ines Trupp (5 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

In recent years, journal writing, or engaging in expressive writing, has been proven to have a positive impact on the participant. It helps one to be more mindful, to be grateful. It helps improve focus and alleviates stress. But studies have shown that simply writing onto a blank page doesn't necessarily produce positive benefits. As with everything else, it's the intention that matters. It's about introspection and connection. In this journal, you will have the opportunity to become acquainted -- or reacquainted -- with one hundred Jewish women of yesteryear. You will have one hundred opportunities to motivate your creativity, your philanthropy, your Jewish observance -- your Jewish identity. Jennifer Wulff, Certified Spiritual Director, states, "Expressive journaling becomes a sacred and holy space where you can explore your deepest questions and strengthen the connections between yourself and the Divine." Take a few minutes each day. Allow yourself to be inspired. There are prompts to jot down your thoughts, but use the other space to scribble a few notes, ask G-d for guidance -- put things into perspective. There is no pressure, no judgement. That's the beauty of this journal. No one needs to know; it's just between you and the Woman of Valor that lives inside you. This is an enlightening resource and a lovely gift for all Jewish women. Here are a few suggestions: • Bat Mitzvah • Confirmation • Hebrew School Teacher • Rabbi • Cantor • Birthday • Chanukah • Sisterhood • Woman of Valor Award • Book club • Dvar Torah

50 Common Rare Diseases by Alfred Brock (1 Review)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Rare Diseases are categorized as diseases that 200,000 or less people suffer from or encounter. Here are 50 Rare Diseases. If we leave out all of the other rare diseases and pretend these 50 all have 200,000 patients associated with them then the total comes to 10 million people. Therefore, it is theoretically possible that these disease impact over 3 percent of the present population of the United States. If we include an average of 5 people who interact with the patient and, therefore are directly impacted by the diseases then we get 60 million people. In that case these common rare diseases could very well impact 20 percent of the population. As the numbers of those suffering from these diseases is not clearly known we cannot accurately state any number. 20 percent, however, as the number of Americans directly impacted by rare diseases is not far-fetched as within this small group presented all of the other rare and borderline diseases that are known easily take up the slack. By identifying this group of Common Rare Diseases we can learn their names, how they were discovered, what they are and where more information can be found about them. In nearly every case regarding these Common Rare Diseases there is some private foundation leading the way collecting funds, directing research and reaching out to those impacted by these diseases.

He's called a monster, a beast, a dragon, and he's chosen me. I think I'm in trouble. Again. Yeah, alien abduction is for suckers. If I thought my life was bad before I woke up in the alien prison, it's just about to get a whole load worse, because I've been rescued by an alien warrior who is much better at stripping flesh from bone than being a hero. Draxx has glowing green scales, endless muscles, huge claws and very often, a tail. He also prefers not to wear pants. He has cheekbones I could cut myself on and a set of lips which are very good at kissing. Ask me how I know... I'm on a personal mission. Not only am I not going to let alien abduction beat me, I'm going to find the other humans I heard in my part of the prison and free them. Nothing's going to stand in my way. Not even the big green scaled alien warrior with a domination streak, dirty talk and burning desire to make me his mate. If he doesn't get out of my way, I won't be responsible for what happens next. The problem is, I think it's going to be him stealing my heart. The Fated Mates of the Sarkarnii series continues with DRAXX, a warrior with a huge heart who doesn't believe he deserves love and a human who has had her heart crushed one too many times. Spicy, delicious and with always a HEA.

Carl Jung and the Rebirth of the Soul: A New Myth for the 21st Century by N Wauben (24 Reviews)    Price verified 35 minutes ago

Although many great books have already been written on the ideas of Carl Jung, it was until the Black Books were published in 2020 (more than 60 years after Jung's death) not possible to incorporate Jung's initial fantasies and dreams into such a book. Even though the Black Books were written by Jung between 1913 and 1932, Jung kept his initial fantasies largely to himself, however, as Jung would later claim as well, his most important ideas originated from these initial fantasies and dreams. Therefore, in order to acquire a deeper understanding of the ideas of one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century, it is essential to examine Jung's preliminary works as well. As a result, it is the aim of this book to provide its reader with an understanding of the contents of Jung's initial fantasies and dreams and illustrate how these impacted Jung's most important ideas. Interestingly, however, the contents of the Black Books and the Red Book (Published in 2009), and the way in which these books have been written is, at the least, untypical. For some it might simply be strange, unbelievable, and unscientific. For others, it might be extremely impressive, thought-provoking, and even life changing. Correspondingly, this book also discusses how the publication of the Red Book and the Black Books in recent years can shed a new light on Jung's theories and explore how they might perhaps help us deal with some of our current dilemmas. Whereas our external world continues to develop rapidly, our internal world is often neglected and left in the dark. Jung noticed that this applied to himself as well and throughout the exploration of his initial fantasies and dreams, Jung attempted to reconnect with his own unconscious world and his own soul. This was not an easy journey, and Jung's discoveries can teach us a lot about our own unconscious world. At the same time, they can also illustrate how we might attempt to reconnect with our own soul. Moreover, as discussed ...

It takes only minutes for everything you have ever known to be ripped away from you, but it takes years to adjust to your new version of normal. Now they keep us locked away, held for their survival, prolonging our inevitable deaths for their sick amusement. Dragons, vampires, and all those things we thought were just myth and legend crawled out of the shadows and sent the world into the total darkness of our misery. We were at their mercy, and mercy wasn't something they had. Yet, a few of us didn't plan to sit idle. No, we longed for our freedom and were determined to make it out of this hell. What I wasn't prepared for was them finding us. Death, I accepted that, knew it would come eventually. What I wasn't expecting were the very monsters that tortured us to recapture us. They forced me to watch those with me die; before claiming I was theirs to keep. Claiming that I was their fated mate, that they were my destiny, a destiny I never wanted. One I couldn't comprehend. I had not one claiming to be my mate but two -- one who despised humans like me. The other was hellbent on keeping me while his mate was hellbent on killing me. What made it worse was that they were both kings of the world they had created, a world designed to enslave humankind. So I found myself in a situation where I was trapped with the very monsters that destroyed humankind, a slave to them. Property. I just had to fight the temptation of them, the pull of a bond I never thought existed... and just maybe, I will survive. If not, I will take them to hell with me.
