But when a double murder rocks this quiet community, the Amish residents resolve to forgive even this unfathomable offense.

The elders of the community insist that Hannah must forgive her family's killer or be shunned. When Hannah refuses, she runs away with Reece, leaving behind the only life she's ever known. Years later, Hannah must journey back to the place she no longer calls home. Can she find the forgiveness and belonging she so desperately desires?

Book excerpt: Evangeline has spent her teenage years in obscurity. Her foster parents have the emotional aptitude of robots and her classmates barely acknowledge her existence. About to turn eighteen and feeling like a social pariah, she is desperate to connect with someone. Anyone. When Evangeline meets Sofie after literally stumbling upon her cafe, she believes she's found that connection. Willing to do anything to keep it, she accepts a job as Sofie's assistant and drops everything to fly to Manhattan, where she is thrust into a luxurious world of Prada, diamonds, and limitless cash. With such generosity and kindness, it's easy for Evangeline to dismiss certain oddities . . . like Sofie's erratic and sometimes violent behavior, and the monstrous guard dogs. She's even willing to dismiss her vivid dreams of mob-style murders, beautiful homeless people living in caves, and white-eyed demons that haunt her each night as figments of her imagination-especially when one of those figments is the gorgeous Caden. When she wakes up with bite marks on her neck, the fairy tale quickly turns into a nightmare. She slowly unravels the mystery surrounding Sofie and friends, and the reality of the bites and the "dreams." What she discovers is far more mysterious and terrible than anything she could have imagined. In a world where everyone has motive to lie for personal gain, Evangeline must decide which deception is least likely to get her killed."

About anathema Often we hear this terrible word - anathema - without thinking about its meaning. Some consider the anathema an excommunication, others - a curse similar to spiritual death. Why is the Church preaching love and mercy pronouncing this cruel word? This book contains historical and theological works on the essence of anathema and on the rite of anathematization now being revived in liturgical life, performed on the first Sunday of Great Lent - on Orthodoxy Week. It provides an opinion on the anathema of the saints of the Orthodox Church (St. John Chrysostom, St. Ignatius (Brianchaninov), St. John of Kronstadt), modern theologians, as well as the definition of the Holy Synod and acts of the Council of Bishops on excommunication of famous historical figures from the ancient times to the present day. We hope that the book will help you understand this healing action of the Holy Church, designed to protect the church people from spiritual diseases – heresies and schisms. ANATHEMA Publicly declared excommunication man from ecclesial communion. It applies to certain people as the highest disciplinary measure of ecclesiastical penalties for serious public sins against the Church, as a rule, for heretical or schismatic movement. Anathema also undergo certain theological statements. This means that such statements are not only false, but generally incompatible with Orthodox faith and, therefore, lead to a falling away from it (heresy). In the church sense of the word anathema has not cursed the person (eg, a heretic), wishing him ill, and says it is the actual determination of the Church. If he is alive, he has a chance to repent and return to church. In Synodikon with anathemas most famous heretics (which must be read in the church on the feast of the Triumph of Orthodoxy in the first week of Lent) states that they have already laid the anathema. Thus, public anathema only brings to the public a fait accompli of their falling away (upon heresy) from the Church. Although the heretics who have been subjected to anathema, fell away from the Church - the Body of Christ, the question of their posthumous fate remains an open question, since God judges them. Commandment stop ecclesial communion with heretics is already in the letter of the Apostle Paul: ... the heretic man denies vedy, for theirs is such is subverted, and sins, and there is self-condemned (Titus 3: 10-11.). The act of public anathema not only serves as a warning against falling away into heresy and call to repentance for those who have already dropped out, but also becomes a kind of church law (canon), whose knowledge is necessary for bishops, priests, and of all those who teach the people Orthodox faith. If the lack of warning "anathema" signal could be a mitigating factor for fallen away, the presence of an aggravating circumstance is anathema to those who knew about it, she decided to neglect, as well as for those who do not bother to learn about it.

Download or read book Anathema written by Leonid Andreyev and published by . This book was released on 1910 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This play was first produced by Stanislavsky in Moscow in 1909. It treats one 'David', who inherits a fortune and sets out to relieve the suffering of the world. Vast crowds gather round him, their sense of their own hardship intensified. When his resources are exhausted and he can do no more for them, they turn against him, and finally stone him to death. He is manipulated throughout by 'Anathema', a Satanic figure who wishes to have something to strengthen his case against God the Creator. But when he challenges an angel at the heavenly gates, the angel replies that good and evil on earth cannot be measured: the goodness that David represents has a value that is incomparable and transcendent. The play excited lively debate in the Russian Orthodox Church at the time, between those who condemned it as an attack on Christianity and those who praised it as a vindication of Christianity. Further performances were finally banned after intervention by Tsar Nicholas II, whose piety was equal to his stupidity. Apart from its theology, the play has the great merit of presenting two chief characters, David and Anathema, who are subtle and arresting figures that, in the first production, gave great actors real scope.

Download or read book Easton s Bible Dictionary written by M. G. Easton and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-19 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easton's Bible Dictionary is a classic book of definitions which serves to explain and clarify the meaning of the names, places, and words found in the Bible. Many Christians and scholars who read the Bible often remain unawares of the meanings or significance of the Holy Book's vocabulary. Such words are often derived from Ancient Hebrew or other old scripts, which makes it even more difficult for readers who only speak English to understand. Location names, in the context of ancient geography, are likewise hard to scrutinize - yet Easton's Dictionary not only explains what these places are, but their size and overall impact across the entire Bible. First published in 1893, this dictionary uses the authoritative King James Bible as its source. As well as containing definitions and accounts of the many terms found throughout the Old and New Testaments, Easton's Bible Dictionary points out the significance of certain things and exactly where mentions of such phenomena appear in the Bible. The presence and significance of iron, for example, is noted in the Books of Genesis, Chronicles, Ezekiel, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Job, Joshua, Kings and in the Psalms. Individuals in the Bible are also given biographical definitions. Through Easton's referencing of the names, we can discover the exact Bible passages where such figures are mentioned. Likewise we hear of terms relevant to the life of the ancient peoples; the term 'Levy' for instance is shown to equate to a form of involuntary recruitment which kings ordered. Words in frequent use today, such as 'Schism', are also shown to originate from the Bible. Other words we use today - such as 'Teeth', are shown to have been informal terms: 'cleanness of teeth' in Amos 4:6 denotes an outbreak of famine, for example. Many of the parables and tales of the Bible are retold in abbreviated form in Easton's Bible Dictionary. These retold anecdotes reference other relevant passages, further evidencing how the various portions of the Bible are interconnected and related to one another. Such a style also gives this unconventional dictionary a flowing quality, making it easier for the reader to enjoy large tracts of this text without pause. The ancient world of the Biblical canon is given life and color by Easton's descriptions. Primarily however, Easton's masterwork is designed for reference. Yet it not only defines the individual entries, but places these entries in their proper context throughout both the Old and New Testaments. Owing to this wealth of information, the reader may perceive that Easton's Dictionary is not merely a book of definitions, but an authoritative and significant work of classic Christian literature.
