Book Description
Offering a fresh approach to homiletics, David J. Schlafer provides an invitation to preaching by way of metaphor. Starting with the fire of Scripture, and engaging in the work of preaching as play, Schlafer offers new ways of approaching the preaching moment. Taking into account the preacher’s call, the stages of preparation, the role of the congregation, and the presence of the Holy Spirit in the midst of it all, we discover that playing with fire is a sacred act indeed. Two metaphors dance together across the pages of this book: fire and play. Two metaphors, plus a hunch: that texts of the Scriptures, the grounding voices of inspiration for Christian preaching, offer more than just truths to be interpreted and transmitted. What we call the Scriptures are the work of a great company of preachers. The Bible is a treasure lode of imaginative insights regarding how the mystery of preaching might be entertained. —from the Introduction

Book Description
Being a forty-something, newly divorced, single mom comes with its challenges. Finding out I’m a witch is just another one of them. As a new practitioner of tru-craft, I’ve been told that every witch is called to a single element, and they are sent down one of two paths, the Fade or the Bright. Of course, every rule has an exception, and in this case, it’s me. My grimoire has revealed a new element I have to learn, and I am walking the ditch between the two paths. I’m going to need the help of a grouchy gnome, a cuddly imp, a fiery ifrit, and a hottie druid to keep me from burning down my life and everything around it. My new reality is nature's cruel midlife trick. Surviving Earth magic without blowing up my entire world has been hard enough. If I don’t master Fire, I’ll go down in flames. Literally.

Book Description
The worry rolling off of him made me wrap my arms around him. “Babe, talk to me.” “It’s just a lot. Everything that just happened.” He chuckled. “Yeah.” “I’m pissed you lied to me. I’m pissed at Carey for blaming you for what happened. I’m scared of these powers I’m supposed to have. I’m confused because I love both of you and I don’t know how that works. And I’m sad because everything I thought I knew isn’t real and I don’t know what to focus on to stay grounded. I keep going from pissed, to scared, to confused, to sad…” “What are you right this second?” I took a second to think about it. “Safe.” It seemed it didn’t matter what life altering event I found myself in, I’d always feel safe in Ben’s arms. “If you need to feel grounded, you think of that. You think of me. I’m real. How I feel about you? That’s real. What we have is real. Carey? He’s real too. He might be acting like a dick right now, but that man adores you. That’s real.” I glanced up at him and he tucked the hair behind my ears. “We will figure out something to help you with your magic. We will find the bastard who killed Trini. Babe, it will be okay.” “How do you know?” I whispered. “Because the instant I saw Carey in that house, I was positive I was losing you forever, but I didn’t. You’re still here,” he whispered. “You’re still here and you’re still mine and I’ll be damned if I’m going to let anything mess that up.” Being a vigilante when your boyfriend is a cop? Never a good idea. Finding out magic exists and I'm half fire faerie? That's a twist I didn't see coming. Reading a letter I wrote to myself telling me my long lost best friend is actually my mate? Yep, that happened. Oh, but here’s the best part: having zero control over my powers? Well, that’s just icing on the cake. Now, if someone could explain to me how I’m supposed to navigate aforementioned revelations while catching the hunter killing off the people I love, that would be great, because the war isn’t coming. It’s already here…

Book Description
"I can't loose weight because I have a terrible metabolism" You may not realize it, but you can take control of your metabolism. Identical twins and registered dietitians, Lyssie Lakatos and Tammy Lakatos Shames embarked on a twin study to determine precisely what does -- and doesn't -- increase the rate at which our bodies burn calories and fat. Their findings? Small changes have big results. The nine weight-loss principles -- and the 200 tips that help you incorporate them into your lifestyle -- in Fire Up Your Metabolism are surprisingly simple: Eat breakfast before you get to work. Learn which sugary snacks trump others (peanut M&Ms boost metabolism, but Twizzlers don't). Drink water, which is essential to burning calories. Always eat dinner, even if it's late. Focus on muscle building, not cardiovascular workouts. With Fire Up Your Metabolism, you won't have to avoid restaurants or follow a diet (though one is included if you like regimentation). The fatigue and distracting hunger that derail most dieters won't affect you because revving your metabolism is all about eating. You will enjoy breads and other carbohydrates. You will boost your metabolism with power proteins, including hamburgers, and avoid other proteins that bog you down. You will indulge in snacks you thought a dieter could never touch. Lyssie and Tammy's clients have experienced not only dramatic weight loss but also the thrill of having more energy than ever before. Now you, too, can rewire your metabolism to lose weight fast and forever.

Book Description
SOME LIKE IT HOT. OTHERS LIKE IT TO HURT. Max Little is a traveling gourmand in worn boots and a Bob Marley T-shirt. It's 1999, and Max is a certified heat freak, a chile-head whose love of spice has taken him across the globe. His hot sauce emporium in Laguna Beach, Little's House of Fire, stocks sauces and spicy goods from around the world, and he and the other chile-heads with whom he does business comprise an underground network called the 'Ring of Fire.' After Max is approached by Nickolai Gasanov, a mysterious officer from the Kyrgyzstan Ministry of Agriculture, his world is turned upside down when word of a new variety of chile pepper is revealed - a relic of the ancient Silk Road hidden in the valleys of the Tien Shan mountains of Central Asia. A chile with reputedly euphoric properties, it ignites the lively and offbeat characters in the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire follows Max across continents in search of the mythical Fire of the Valley chile. From Santa Fe to Louisiana, Chicago, and across India, China, and Kyrgyzstan, his journey becomes a piquant global odyssey. Along the way, he encounters a tapestry of colorful characters linked to his quest: Jesus Jones, a legendary Louisiana pepper farmer; Lilah DeVillier, a beguiling creole doctoral student who's an expert in chiles; voodoo Priestess Delphine Anjou; Jahnu Angami of the headhunting Angami tribe in Northeast India; and massive Nazaat Buntun, fierce guardian of the Kyrgyz pepper myth. All the while, he's being pursued by two menacing former Russian commandos in the employ of Kyrgyzstan's notorious gangster Ruslan Bakiyev, who craves the pepper profits for himself. The Ring of Fire entertainingly explores the history of chile peppers, their spread across the world, and their impact upon the cultures of which they have indelibly become a part. Enlisted early on in his journey by New Mexico State University, Max is also on a quest to be the first to verify the existence of the scorching Naga Jolokia, or Ghost Pepper, an authentic chile discovered in remote Northeastern India in the late nineties. A chile so potent its Scoville heat rating is reportedly triple that of any other known variety. The race is on as Max encounters unforgettable people, incredible meals, exotic locations, and extraordinary experiences pursuing his passion. If you relish the irreverent foodie fiction of Peter Mayle and Anthony Bourdain, then this story is for you. The Ring of Fire is a gustatory delight for food lovers, history buffs, armchair travelers, and romantics.
