While Sera reunites with her estranged lover turned violent rebel leader, Galina infiltrates the palace. In this world of deception and danger, her only refuge is an isolated princess, whose whip-smart tongue and sharp gaze threaten to uncover Galina’s secret. Torn between desire and duty, Galina must make a choice: work together to expose the lies of the empire―or bring it all down.

Victory (eBook)
Author: Elza Meyer

ISBN: 1432101889
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
For some people the Bible is filled with images and historical events that don’t seem to be relevant or applicable to our day and age. In VICTORY Elza Meyer shows that the exact opposite is in fact true. In this book the author emphasizes certain timeless biblical concepts and shows how these age-old truths affect modern-day believers. Based on a vision she had one night, she urges believers to take the Bible, and the God of the Bible, seriously. Only then can they expect to be abundantly blessed. VICTORY encourages believers to look to the God of the universe and to live according to His values. Then they will triumph over the red horse of war, the black horse of famine, and the pale horse of death (Rev. 6:1-8).

A Way of Life: For the Third Millennium
Author: Ray Simpson
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1035824140
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
False ways litter the world. Even the great religions have become prisoners of colonial frameworks or of a selfishness that betrays their essence. As a result, our planet faces climate catastrophes, nuclear holocausts, and internet surveillance that makes us prisoners of unseen predators. There is a Way, however, whose time has come. It is ingrained in the psyche of humanity. It resonates with Perennial Wisdom, with Chinese who understand it as Tao, with the Buddhist Eightfold Path, the Five Pillars of Islam, indigenous peoples whose insights have been summarised as The Harmony Way, and above all with Jesus who declared ‘I AM the Way’ (John 14:6) and whose first disciples were known as ‘followers of The Way’, based on Jesus’ Beatitudes (Matthew 5-7). Whereas traditional monasticism restricted its vows to celibates cut off from the world, new Monasticism makes vows rooted in the Beatitudes accessible to everyone. One reason Benedictinism survived through the second millennium is because its founder wrote a detailed commentary on its rule. Here the founding guardian of a new monastic community writes a commentary on its Way of Life which he has reflected on daily for over a generation – and which promises to flourish through the third millennium.
