Dunkirk
Dunkirk, first published in 1948, is the classic, detailed account of the rescue operation of the British Expeditionary Force (and allied soldiers) in May 1940 from the beaches of Dunkirk, France. Author Arthur (A. D.) Divine crossed the English Channel three times in a 35-foot boat to rescue trapped British soldiers, part of a fleet made up of every serviceable naval and civilian vessel that could be found. At the end of this heroic mission, 330,000 French, British, Belgian, and Dutch soldiers were safely evacuated, but at a great cost in life and with a tremendous amount of materiel left behind on the Dunkirk beaches. Includes an index and appendices with a list of ships used in the operation, honors awarded, and a summary of air support provided.
Tantric Visions of the Divine Feminine
The Hindu pantheon is rich in images of the divine feminine—deities representing a wide range of symbolic, social, and meditative meanings. David Kinsley's new book documents a highly unusual group of ten Hindu tantric goddesses, the Mahavidyas, many of whom are strongly associated with sexuality and violence. What is one to make of a goddess who cuts her own head off, or one who prefers sex with a corpse? The Mahavidyas embody habits, attributes, or identities usually considered repulsive or socially subversive and can be viewed as "antimodels" for women. Yet it is within the context of tantric worship that devotees seek to identify themselves with these forbidding goddesses. The Mahavidy...
Divine Justice
Explosive and enthralling, David Baldacci's Divine Justice is the fourth novel in his bestselling Camel Club series. Known by his alias, 'Oliver Stone', John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger, the men who hid the truth of Stone's past and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced. But Stone's freedom has come at a steep price; the assassinations he carried out have prompted the highest levels of the United States Government to unleash a massive manhunt. Joe Knox is leading the charge, but his superiors aren't telling him everything there is to know about his quarry – and their hidden agendas are just as dangerous as the killer he's trying to catch. Meanwhile, with their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club must fend for themselves, even as they try to protect him. As Knox closes in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him far from Washington, D.C., to the coal-mining town of Devine, Virginia – and headlong into a confrontation every bit as lethal as the one he is trying to escape. Divine Justice is followed by Baldacci's final Camel Club novel, Hell's Corner.
Soma
Shrouded in mystery for centuries, Soma is simultaneously a sacred hallucinogenic plant, a personified God, and a cosmological principle. With the renewed interest in the ritual use of psychoactive substances, shamanism, and alternative modalities of healing, Soma provides an important key to understanding the earliest systemized methods of medicine, psychology, magic, rejuvenation, longevity, and alchemy.
The Divine Trinity
This book, the first serious analysis of the doctrine of the Trinity for many years, presents a defense against the conservative treatment of the Trinity as an impenetrable mystery, and against the radical position that the doctrine is incoherent and therefore unacceptable. Brown favors the founding of a new discipline of philosophical theology (or the widening of the horizons of the philosophy of religion) to apply more widely the type of penetration of theology by philosophy that he exemplifies in his treatment of the Trinity. He argues for belief in an interventionist God (theism rather than deism), and contends that biblical criticism and historical research do not imply the abandonment ...
From Rags to His Riches
From Rags to His Riches: When Your Purpose Is Greater than Your Brokenness! (A True Story) is a story about how I came from the devil's armpit to loving arms of a Savior! Growing up, I lived in poverty while dealing with drugs, gangs, constant violence, and no hope for life whatsoever. It led me to believe this was the hand I was dealt and there was nothing else for me. Growing up in the environment I did certainly gave me the impression that life does not get any better. As I started to put my trust in God and began to slowly surrender my brokenness to God, I started to see His riches begin to cover me in my life. I went from the devil's armpit to God's riches by following Him, listening to Him, and trusting in Him. Once I did that, I was able to see and experience the full power, favor, and blessings of God in my life. That is how I went from rags to His riches.
Knowing God as an Evangelical
In the present polyphony of evangelical theological epistemology, there are several authoritative approaches. Yet, the evangelical emphasis on sola scriptura demands that theological epistemology be subjected to the biblical canon. In this book, Dan-Adrian Petre argues for a canonically-derived theological epistemological framework that may foster a fuller understanding of theological knowledge formation within evangelicalism. Specifically, he explores some representative evangelical voices to identify the reasons for the contemporary epistemological variance. Petre then uses a canonical-epistemological methodology to outline a biblically-based framework. In exploring how the Scripture conce...
Into His Presence, Volume 1
