Witch Catcher

When her widower father inherits a castlelike estate in the mountains of West Virginia, 12-year-old Jen is thrilled. It seems like a wish come true. But she quickly realizes that not all change is positive. Her dad has a mysterious new girlfriend, Moura, who slowly drives a wedge between Jen and her father. Furthermore, Moura has an unusually strong—almost obsessive—interest in the antiques that fill the mansion, especially a beautiful glass globe that Jen finds hanging in a window. When Jen’s cat accidentally breaks the globe, which Moura calls a “witch catcher,” strange things begin to happen. . . . An odd-looking girl wearing a torn dress appears, seemingly out of nowhere, and Moura’s behavior becomes more sinister, leading Jen to believe that her father is a pawn in an evil scheme. Soon Jen finds herself caught in the midst of a supernatural war, with the fate of an enchanted race—and her family—at stake. Inspired by the age-old legend of witch catchers, Mary Downing Hahn brings a magical cast of characters to life in this compelling fantasy adventure. Author’s note.

Loving God and Neighbor

The Old Testament book of Deuteronomy is the Bible’s most elaborate explanation of what it means to love God and love neighbor. In fact, the book contains the Bible’s first explicit command to love God in Deut 6:4–5, often referred to as the Shema. Jesus quoted heavily from Deuteronomy during his ministry, and this book still contains many practical teachings for his followers today. Drawing from recent understanding of the book’s previously perplexing structure, we find that while the Ten Commandments are famously framed mostly as brief negatives such as “do not murder,” they were written to teach an open-ended array of positive ways to demonstrate love for God and neighbor. This book offers a positive restatement of each commandment to establish how Deuteronomy presents each commandment’s full meaning. This book will help readers discover the riches of the book of Deuteronomy by reading it with understanding. It will also offer the resources needed to lead a Bible study on or preach through Deuteronomy so that Christians are better prepared to love God and neighbor.
