Quotations

“What if God’s call is not to be good but to become whole? Not to stay safe but to catch fire? What if the deepest desire of God’s heart is not to be praised and obeyed, but known and loved?” These are some of the questions posed in this beautiful little book, a collection of fifteen reflections on the nature of the spiritual life by a woman who has worked for twenty years companioning others on their spiritual journeys and whose own journey moved her from obedience to a God who reigned on high to love for a God who calls us by name. In a lively, conversational style, the author shares stories from her own life, offering her readers glimpses of the graciousness and playfulness, the humility and vulnerability of this God of grandeur who has chosen to share life with us. Each reflection is accompanied by a full-color illustration, a set of reflection questions, and a page or two for journaling.

Fire is mysterious. It is unpredictable and uncontrollable. It can warm us or it can burn us. In life, we have many experiences in which fire serves as a powerful metaphor: heartache, anger, love, pain, desire, spirituality. In Rising From Perdition, John Evans dives into these topics and more as he writes from his experiences with the fires of life. With passion and conviction, Evans pours his heart out and points us towards the one certain thing among all the chaos: no matter how intense the flames burn, Jesus is there with us.

To record collectors and music enthusiasts, the vinyl market is an ever-evolving industry. For design and photography enthusiasts, for those fascinated with nudity and eroticism, and for anyone with an eye for color, style or beauty, the genre of record cover art holds an identity and visual interest all of its own. Naked Vinyl lovingly brings together more than 100 of the best album covers. The collection focuses on the development of the "vinyl nude" from the adult-orientated sleaze of the 50s, to the brash exhibitionism of the 70s, and its return to more conservative climes. Listings of artists, musicians and photographers accompany the cover art to create a sexy, stylish and contemporary collection of beautiful, sometimes tawdry and occasionally offensive vinyl nudes.

Of all the world's secret agencies, the work of the CIA is perhaps the most intriguing, not least because they command such power. But what goes on behind closed doors? What plots have they been involved in during their chequered history? In the current climate of terrorism post-September 11th an examination of the working mechanism of the CIA has never been more valid. The CIA Files explores and assesses some of the most covert operations in the history of America's Central Intelligence Agency, and takes a critical look at its most closely guarded secrets. The book also sifts through the mountain of allegations and web of half-truths behind the assassinations, mini-wars, botched experiments and political intrigues for which the Agency has been blamed. Including: the plot to assassinate Fidel Castro, their pursuit of Che Guevara, their involvement in the testing of mind-altering drugs, the Kennedy assassination, the New World Order, and, more recently, their failed bid to thwart the catastrophic attacks on New York City and the Pentagon in September 2001.
