This is a nonfiction book about a woman and a man that was promised to each other in matrimony. They were happy and living the American dream that they dreamed about all their lives, until Koryn realized that her husband, her partner, and best friend who was supposed to be the love of her life, turned out to be her worst enemy. It was a setup from the first moment Tyrone laid eyes on her. Tyrone thought that he would reap the benefits of Koryn's demise. However, the "thought" comes from not knowing. When God steps in and shows the enemy that he protects his anointed things will never be the same again. As it is written in Psalm 105:15, "Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm." Trust and believe in the power of God because His power is still the same.
A beautifully illustrated look inside of Indiana University Bloomington’s renowned library of rare books, manuscripts, and related oddities. What do locks of Edgar Allan Poe’s hair, Sylvia Plath’s attractive handmade paper dolls, John Ford’s Oscars, and Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007 cigars have in common? They are just a few of the fascinating objects found in the world-famous Lilly Library, located on the campus of Indiana University Bloomington. In this beautifully illustrated A-to-Z volume, Darlene J. Sadlier journeys through the library’s wide-ranging collections to highlight dozens of intriguing items and the archives of which they are a part. Read about life and death masks of John Keats, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Dreiser; Walt Whitman’s last pencil; and vintage board games, mechanical puzzles, and even comic books. Among the more peculiar items are a pair of elk teeth and an eerily realistic wall-mount bust of Boris Karloff. Sadlier writes engagingly about the Lilly Library’s major historical collections, which include Civil War diaries and a panopticon of the war called the Myriopticon; War of 1812 payment receipts to spies; and the World War II letters and V-mail of journalist Ernie Pyle. This copiously illustrated, entertaining, and educational book will inspire you to take your own journey and discover for yourself the wonders of the Lilly Library.

This book traces changing perceptions of Egypt's monastic landscape through an analysis of archaeological and documentary evidence from late antiquity.
Jesus opened the door for the whole world, the entire human race, for all time, and invited all of us to live in God's portion. When we know that we know for 100 percent surety, within our core values, that God loves us no matter what, then we walk like we are loved 100 percent, and this is how everything else follows. In the last chapter of my last book, Time to Really Live Free, I wrote about what Adam and Eve had given up and the plan God had to return it to humanity through his Son, Jesus Christ. When we begin to understand this is what the new covenant is all about, God's portion being returned to humanity, we can truly live from the place of truth that God already loves us. My next questions were, "God, what does your portion look like? And am I living from the truth that I have your portion?" I kept looking for answers, but my answers were already there for me. What I realized is that for the last five years, I have been learning to live from this place. My first book is like the roots of what the good news is all about. This book is going into how I live my life from those roots. Come with me on a journey into real life with God...

It was something she would never forgive herself for... it wasn't until lunchtime that Jessi remembered to call home. No answer. She tried calling several times while she ate her lunch. Still no answer. She closed her eyes and rested her arms and head on her desk. She breathed deeply, wishing she had remembered to call earlier. Until Forever is a story of a young family that is torn apart by the devastating effects of alcoholism. Can healing take place in a relationship when an unforgivable act is committed? Will Jessi's pain and Mark's guilt keep them apart forever, or will unforeseen circumstances bind them together? 'Darlene is an extremely gifted and exciting new author. Her story of a family suffering and growing and changing manages to leap beyond the clichés of the genre and stand as an original work.' -Cliff Graham, Author of Day of War 'Until Forever delves into the difficult realms of reconciliation, redemption, and forgiveness. Shortridge illustrates a story that is at times poignant and compelling. I found myself vicariously experiencing Jessi and Mark's tragic loss and desperately wanted them to be fully healed and restored. If you battle with the perception that you are unconditionally loved and forgiven by God, this novel is for you.' -Jeral Davis, Author of Tomorrow
In the early months of the Spanish Civil War, Canadian-American archaeologist Dr. Grace “Shale” Clifden and her inexperienced field crew of well-met Canadians—Dorothy Livesay, P. K. Page, and Sheila Doherty—are documenting a rare discovery of prehistoric cave art in Galicia when they are kidnapped. A local Spanish commander, a Nationalists, loyal to Franco and the Fascists, believes they are foreign spies and takes them to his ancestral home, locking them in underground cells. There, he enlists his brother, Dr. Alexandre Castro, a psychology professor at the University of Madrid, to interrogate the women, but instead, he secretly forms a bond with them. Unlike the commander, Alexandre is a loyalist, supporting the Republicans, nevertheless, he is eager to escape the clutches of the State Intelligence Service—who plan to force him to devise forms of psychological torture. Alexandre convinces his brother to let him chaperone the women while they finish their research, as the Smithsonian will pay the commander a hefty sum for it. After Shale and the women have compiled their findings, Alexandre helps them escape Spain to London with him. But while in London, they learn of other Canadians who have bravely volunteered to help fight for democracy in Spain despite the dangers, and now, they, too, want to help the cause. Knowing the war is escalating, Alexandre, Shale and the women are determined to rescue archives and artifacts from the University of Madrid and help the National Junta for Protection of Artistic Treasure transfer Spain’s great art collection to Geneva. As they do so, they must be braver than ever, as the devastating Battle of Madrid is upon them.

This book is a group of lessons that I previously taught to my Sunday school class. While teaching, I am also able to hear the Spirit of the Lord and learn from my own teachings. I also realize that the more I learn, the more it becomes evident that this Word is much bigger than the four walls in which I teach. It needs to reach the masses in any way possible. I am simply doing my part to make sure that happens. I believe the Spirit of the Lord has spoken to my heart to put what I am teaching into a book form for you. I would like for those who would not normally have the time to attend a weekly class or small group session to have something to study on their own in a hope that this tidbit of the Word will eventually lead to a greater desire for the fullness of God's Word. So many times we confess that we don't know what the plan of God is for our lives. I would suggest first that we become more familiar with God's Word and allow ourselves to be usable for Kingdom of God. Allow God to move or change your personal will so that His perfect will can be revealed. Whether it's through preaching, teaching, praise and worship, ushering at the door or cleaning the floor, the will of God for your life is to whole-heartedly surrender to Him to be used in whatever capacity He wills. It's my prayer that this study guide will be of some assistance to you in your process to get to where God wants you to be.
The twentieth century was both wonderful and horrible. There were two catastrophic world wars and many ghastly smaller wars. But there were medical advances and discoveries that extended the lives of people and animals. There were many inventions that made life easier for ordinary people, inventions we take for granted. Some people were blessed with productive and peaceful lives while others suffered from events beyond their control. Each decade of the twentieth century was unique. The author has written about some she witnessed, some events told to her, and some she has made up entirely from her imagination. Even as a child, she was always ready to listen to someone's story. She wondered about her twenty cousins and many aunts and uncles, some of whom she never met. As an educator and member of several organizations, she found friends who had a unique story to tell.

There is a never-ending amount of commentary, sermons, and exegesis about the Proverbs 31 (P31) woman. We, as women, have used her high ideals as a model of spiritual and ethical standards to measure up to. That's good. But, all too often, we let the P31 biblical guidance discourage us because we don't believe that we can measure up. All of her qualities are amazing but seem too impossible to accomplish! In SHE: An Expose' of Her Insufficiencies, M. Darlene Carson uses storytelling to uniquely encourage women that their experiences, good and bad, shape her character to produce the qualities that make up the P31 woman. SHE is in the process of becoming exactly who God wants her to be, imperfections included. As much as she inspires others to become, she has a life filled with tests, turmoil, triumph, and defeat. Her stories vary, but all are relatable. Her marriage is broken, her heart aches for her children, she has been diagnosed with cancer, she has been abused, she struggles mentally with the pain of her past, she wrestles with doubts and insecurity about her spiritual life... but she draws her strength from her life's adversity, she endures it with the kind of grace that only God can give, she fakes it until she makes it. Even when she does not know it, she is giving you a reason to get some grit in your craw and keep it pushing! This book, the first in the SHE series, is a tribute to the strength of women everywhere and acknowledges their contributions, and encourages them to embrace their strength, beauty, and the profound imp[act that they have on the world.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the ordinations of “The Philadelphia Eleven,” this expanded and revised edition serves as the definitive account of the courageous women who shattered stained glass ceilings and sparked a global movement to revolutionize faith and society. Nearly fifty years after eleven audacious women made history as the first female priests ordained in the Episcopal Church, Darlene O'Dell revisits their inspiring journey in a revised and expanded edition of her acclaimed The Story of the Philadelphia Eleven. Through extensive interviews and tireless archival research, this definitive account was the first to vividly resurrect the pivotal moment that tore down barriers and changed the Episcopal Church forever. Both critics and scholars hailed the book, calling it “a needed history and a brilliantly told tale” (Mary E.Hunt) and “enthralling reading…O'Dell certainly has the novelist's gift of making her story come alive and in maintaining her readers' interest” (Bernard Palmer). Now fresh interviews unveil dozens of never-before-told perspectives, while updated chapters lend contemporary relevance to a history we can't afford to forget. Additionally, the author has included exclusive conversations with one of the “Washington Four,” a chapter on the impactful Barbara Harris, and insights into the wider Anglican church's role in what is now universally considered a landmark event. This edition doesn't just look back; it casts a critical eye on what's changed and what hasn't, questioning the patriarchy that persists in faith institutions and how these ordinations echo in today's political culture. Both an intimate character study and a sweeping examination, The Story of the Philadelphia Eleven is a renewed call to understand our past in order to better navigate our collective future.
