Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Journey's End, there was a beginning. The wealthiest and most powerful reigning king--King Solomon--may have died three thousand years ago, but because of his heavenly blessed wisdom, the scientific and religious world as we know it today is about to erupt as guarded truths of the beginning of times are now soon to be exposed. At the beginning, King Solomon wisely gave his general--General Shuriah--a mission of epic proportions. The older general was Solomon's most trusted guardian since Solomon's birth to Bathsheba and King David. General Shuriah and thousands of his Israelite soldiers are now sailing across the Mediterranean Sea to a land of their enemies to exhume and safely move the greatest treasures of treasures he himself stumbled upon a year earlier. During the starting days of the journey, the old general is consumed with reflecting back to his youth. Memories come alive of his struggles in relationships, intense training, and many combat situations as he fought hard to someday become a mighty warrior for King David. Young Shuriah is very unpredictable, yet he is extremely admired and feared at the same time because he possesses extraordinary, almost supernatural, abilities to kill and the mental intuition to strategize for war. At the age of fifteen, Shuriah has become the youngest ever to achieve the coveted honor of being a mighty warrior, having killed more than three hundred enemy soldiers in one battle. But this happened only after his stepfather Uriah the Hittite, is murdered in battle. Through certain events, it is revealed that King David secretly ordered the murder of Uriah, after discovering Bathsheba, Shuriah's stepmother and Uriah's wife, is pregnant with his child. Now, the new mighty warrior must face the toughest and most painful battle in his life, which could bring his king to his knees or even his grave.

Download or read book The Spirit Warriors written by Deborah J. Higgins and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 1941 had been a boring year for sixteen-year-old Joseph Stillwater, a Mescalero Apache living on a New Mexico Indian reservation. That was until that December when he heard President Roosevelt’s speech to Congress after the Pearl Harbor bombing. Instantly, he and his cousin, John Runninghorse, knew what they wanted to do. They wanted to fight the enemies of America. So, they defied their parents, ran away, lied about their ages, and joined the Army. Neither teen had ever been off the reservation, yet soon they were in Alabama doing basic training. From there they were sent to Tidworth, England, for specialty training where they were joined by several other Native American soldiers. Their expertise in fighting, tracking, and hunting was so above other American soldiers, it soon had them being reassigned to Scotland where they were to train with elite British Commando soldiers. With the war in Europe intensifying, they were released from that training and sent to France where their mission was to form a unit that could fight and harass the Germans from the shadows while collecting intelligence. They were so successful, the Germans gave them a nickname Geistkriegers, the Spirit Warriors, because they were never seen before or after their deadly attacks, but only heard when they gave an Indian war cry from the depths of the forests. While in France, Joseph found love when he met a French girl, Maria, but experienced heartbreak when she was taken by the Germans. That heartbreak turned into anger and hatred, and turned Joseph into a true Apache warrior on a blood hunt for all Germans. When the war ended, Joseph took those pent-up emotions home with him where his grandfather, his tribe’s shaman, saw the demons within his grandson. He suggested Joseph to experience a ritual spirit walk to his ancestors to cleanse him of his demons. Joseph consented, but could a “visit” to his ancestors cleanse him of the pain he had felt in losing Maria?

Download or read book The Warrior Within written by D.J. Vanas and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-08-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A transformational guide to getting yourself right in order to accomplish the work you were meant to do, from speaker, former U.S. Air Force officer, and member of the Ottawa tribe D.J. Vanas. When faced with an important job, and people depending on you to do it, most of us will give and give until there’s nothing left. But running on empty, even for a worthy cause, only sets you up for failure in the long run. To persevere on the path to success requires more than sheer fearlessness and willpower. It requires what D.J. Vanas calls the warrior spirit, the kind of strength that looks outward but comes from deep within. Drawing inspiration from Native American philosophy and tradition, The Warrior Within outlines a new model for personal power in the face of overwhelming chaos. A true warrior is not the toughest or bravest person in the room. A true warrior is committed to self-mastery, knows how to navigate change and disruption, transforms setbacks into opportunities for achievement, refuses to quit, and most importantly, always fights for something bigger than the self. With a vast array of stories and examples, from vision quests to treacherous hikes to veterans and service providers at the front lines, Vanas shows how to apply these principles to transform how you show up both for yourself and those around you. More than an empowerment manual, The Warrior Within is a call to accomplish the world-changing work you were meant for by tapping into the power of the warrior spirit.
