And why has The Maku returned to earth?Kili, the daughter of the trickster Loki, is sent to aid mankind and find a human whose lineage comes from the old clans of the legends to help her repel the facing threat that the Maku brings to mankind and the universe.

Book excerpt: Gods and Gods is a collection of parables that leave interpretation up the reader. The parables are constructed in such a way that all can find solace and teaching in them despite, or perhaps because of, their background. Though one may hope for a blank canvas upon which to undertake spiritual reflection, the parables still lend themselves to the tendencies of the author. However, these tendencies are subtle and possibly even a beneficial tool for the reader.

Book excerpt: On the run from assassins and worse, Wax and his friends cross the ice to a strange and deadly land. With several skars yet to find, the group heads to Tamas short on provisions and the means to buy them. Tamas has other ways of earning your stay, though, and what it costs may be more than Wax and Eujo can bear. Still, if they want to save their friends, their family, their world, the only answer is to play along. In the Dark Below, Ami plays a different game: keeping hope alive as more fiends crash into the isles and against a weakened Aegis. Desperate to untangle the mysteries behind the gods and these monsters, Ami takes a risk that could change everything, or destroy all she’s worked for. That same disaster befalls Gladdring, who balances his own survival in city where one’s life is measured by who he knows, what threats he can muster. The former Tenet finds knives in every corner, and if he means to survive, has to turn at least some against their owners. Success means vindication, a chance to put himself atop the shifting powers. Failure . . . no sense worrying about that miserable end. In The Dance of Gods, book five in The Seven Isles, legends meet their matches, steel clashes against monstrous terrors, and the fate of everyone rests on a single song.

Download or read book Picking Fights with the Gods written by Paul Gilk and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The common understanding of "apocalypse" suggests End Times, Armageddon, and the end of the world. But the Greek word apokalypsis means none of these things. What it does mean is uncovering, disclosing, and revelatory. That "apocalypse" is so widely misunderstood as predestined disaster isn't due to natural evolution in meaning. To penetrate the misuse of apokalypsis is to discover mythic misrepresentation. That is, "apocalypse" doesn't generate End Times but--just the opposite--End Times compels apokalypsis. The actual threat of End Times--explicitly so with weapons of mass destruction and Anthropocene climate change--forces thoughtful people into a search for fundamental causes: Where do these destructive energies originate? Why are we so reluctant to recognize the obvious consequences and resistant to embrace available remedies? Why do we persist in denial and indifference? In these essays, Paul Gilk explores the underlying cultural and religious conventions (both "conservative" and "liberal") that constitute our resistance and refusal. To disclose and uncover those conventions, to dissolve our oblivion, is to awaken to apokalypsis and to realize the depth of our captivity within prevailing mythology, both religious and civilizational. If End Times is the disease, apokalypsis is the cure. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }

Download or read book God s Warriors written by David T. Peckham and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-03-07 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early Christian church faced persecution from several different sources, primarily that of Judaistic sympathizers, such as Hellenistic Jews (Greek Jews) and the Roman Empire. This persecution gave rise to men and woman who would rather face death than deny Yahvahshua (whom we call Jesus). Many suffered excruciating death by burning, beheading, crucifixion, or as entertainment in the Roman Colosseum. There they were forced to fight trained and experienced gladiators or face starving wild animals. Few survived their first encounter. During this period of time, men, whose names have survived to this day, fearlessly preached and taught the Word of God, knowing at any moment they could be arrested for blasphemy against the emperor, the self-proclaimed god of Rome. Such a man was Polycarp. Little is known of Polycarp, however, that which is known spurs the imagination. More is recorded of his death than of his life. Gods Warriors is a story of Polycarp and Flavius, a young tribune in the Roman army whose first assignment is to squelch the riots allegedly perpetrated by Christians in Smyrna. His eventual contact with the Bishop of Smyrna changes his life to the extent that Rome places him on its list of traitorsa crime punishable by death.

Now he must pick up his sword once again, to fight the demons from his past one last time. Allies and enemies from a time of legend are converging for one final war, with Hakon and his family trapped in the eye of the storm. He must summon a band of heroes, long separated, if he hopes to survive. Against a hostile world and their most dangerous enemy ever, a band of broken gods gathers one last time. For friendship. For family. For humanity.
Download or read book In God s Image written by Yair Lorberbaum and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of creation in the divine image has a long and complex history. While its roots apparently lie in the royal myths of Mesopotamia and Egypt, this book argues that it was the biblical account of creation presented in the first chapters of Genesis and its interpretation in early rabbinic literature that created the basis for the perennial inquiry of the concept in the Judeo-Christian tradition. Yair Lorberbaum reconstructs the idea of the creation of man in the image of God (tselem Elohim) attributed in the Midrash and the Talmud. He analyzes meanings attributed to tselem Elohim in early rabbinic thought, as expressed in Aggadah, and explores its application in the normative, legal, and ritual realms.
