Download or read book Eddies and Stars written by Janet L. Paduhovich and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Sometimes life gives us a second chance. We find ourselves at a place and time in life that few others will ever experience. Seize it, as if it was the last breath of air you would ever breathe. Thank you Janet Paduhovich, for taking us to this place in your life.” Wayne Drumheller, M.Ed., Editor and Founder The Creative Short Story Project Her possessions pared down to necessities, Janet Paduhovich set out from Seattle, Washington, on a pilgrimage that followed the Camino Frances, the French Way, a trail that begins in St. Jean Pied de Port in France and stretches away for 500 miles over the Pyrenees and, ultimately, into Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Drawing from her daily journal, Janet recounts the rigors of the pilgrim trail, both physical and emotional, and takes us from town to rural town, and through cities, too, as she faces the challenge of a lifetime. Janet joins a flow of pilgrims that is centuries old on a walk that brings tranquility and joy, as well as pain and fear. Hints of the mystical hover about her experiences, and, against the backdrop of human frailty, Janet examines her daily experiences on her pilgrimage to gain insight about herself and others, notions of family, beliefs, and companionship. She also confronts solitude and perseveres through even this interior trial.

Download or read book Religion and Politics in America 2 volumes written by Frank J. Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 961 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has always been an intricate relationship between religion and politics. This encyclopedia provides a comprehensive overview of the interrelation of religion and politics from colonial days to the present. Can a judge display the Ten Commandments outside of the courthouse? Can a town set up a nativity scene on the village green during Christmas? Should U.S. currency bear the "In God We Trust" motto? Should public school students be allowed to form bible study groups? Controversies about the separation of church and state, the proper use of religious imagery in public space, and the role of religious beliefs in public education are constantly debated. This work offers insights into contemporary controversies regarding the uneasy intersections of religion and politics in America. Organized alphabetically, the entries place each topic in its proper historical context to help readers fully grasp how religious beliefs have always existed side by side—and often clashed with—political ideals in the United States from the time of the colonies. The information is presented in an unbiased manner that favors no particular religious background or political inclination. This work shows that politics and religion have always had an impact on one another and have done so in many ways that will likely surprise modern students.

Book excerpt: For fans of James Rollins and Matthew Reilly comes a heart-stopping, globe-spanning adventure in Andy McDermott’s explosive series featuring American archaeologist Nina Wilde and ex-SAS bodyguard Eddie Chase. MYSTERIOUS RUNESTONES. AN ANCIENT VIKING MYTH. AND A PROPHECY OF LIFE OR DEATH. In a Stockholm museum, thieves steal an enormous Norse runestone, but not before killing a security guard. When Nina Wilde, head of the International Heritage Agency (IHA), and her husband, ex-mercenary Eddie Chase, arrive to investigate, they are told a chilling story: A scholar has discovered that the stone may be one of two keys to finding the mythological site of Valhalla, where the Vikings predicted the world’s final battle would begin. The second stone lies at the bottom of a Norwegian lake. But when Nina and Eddie race to the scene, they’re hit with a shocking surprise. Covert agents from around the world, including a ruthless mole in the IHA, are drawn into a lethal game, . Then a disturbing secret surfaces from Eddie’s past, involving a mission in Vietnam and a woman he tried to save. Suddenly suspicious of her own husband, Nina cannot afford to stop the perilous search for the artifact. For somewhere in a remote wilderness, two forces are about to converge: one that could save the world . . . and one that could destroy it.

Download or read book Encore written by Dave Lindsay and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-03-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CRYONICS - The frigid controversy surrounding the Ted Williams affair sparked national interest in the science, but there were many philosophical aspects that were never even considered. The human soul...Does it actually exist? If it does and departs the body when a person dies, as most religions contend, will it return upon rejuvenation? Encore explores the most alarming scenario of all, what if it doesnt? What if "something else" takes its place? Time is running out for an elite cartel of five prestigious American scientists working on a Top-Secret Cryonic project. To advance their efforts, a young scientist (Eddie Grisham) and his associate (Maggie Bennett) are invited to participate in the balance of the clandestine project. The cartels sole objective: to rejuvenate one of the most prominent icons of the twentieth century, a man secretly frozen down in 1966. In spite of her unbridled commitment to the project, Maggie clings to her spiritual convictions and is compelled to explore the philosophical prospects that are inherently linked. Armed with a well-supported theory, she coaxes her agnostic companion into the scientific realm of theological tenet. Modern technology fused with an esoteric interpretation of biblical prophecy serves to justify the incredulous perspective and sets the stage for an enigmatic revelation. If Maggies theory was correct, the monumental feat could provide the fabled Antichrist with a socially acceptable means of achieving incarnation. As conjectured, the magnificent achievement transcends a serendipitous portal which unknowingly permits Satan himself to fill the spiritual void. But its the secret identity of their iconic patient that provides ENCORE with its arcane visionary twist. The scientists had no way of knowing that their experiment would inadvertently catapult the world into the prophetic Last Days.
