Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And you think beauty pageants are scary? Persephone Alcmedi has been persuaded to compete for the position of High Priestess of the Cleveland, Ohio, coven -- now that the former priestess, Vivian Diamond, has strangely gone missing. Unfortunately, there are a few small problems with the idea. Not only does Seph know rather more about Vivian's disappearance than the other witches realize, but the epic struggle she's just survived has left her with some highly unusual powers -- ones that could be dangerous to reveal. Despite her reluctance, she agrees to participate, if only to prevent snooty Hunter Hopewell, an obnoxious but talented witch, from ending up in the winner's circle. Can Seph hide her secrets -- including her connection to the master vampire-wizard Menessos -- from the terrifyingly wise judges? Plus, there's her rock 'n' roll werewolf boyfriend, Johnny, and some angry fairies to deal with.... Once the competition begins, a finalist turns up dead. It looks as if one of the contestants is willing to do anything -- including murder -- to win. Suddenly Seph has even more on her plate than she thought: from solving a murder to working out what her new powers really are...and exactly why they're creating so much havoc in her love life.

Download or read book Hallowed written by Reuben Bredenhof and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hallowed is a fresh study of the Lord's Prayer against its Old Testament background. Rather than give an entirely new model for speaking with God, Jesus drew the message of his prayer from the Psalms, the ancient prayer book of God's people. In the Psalms, believers approach God in worship, seek him for life's necessities, confess their sins, and ask for his mercy. Echoing these prayerful voices, Jesus taught a profound lesson in what delights God when his people pray. From this we will learn how to hallow God's name in prayer and all of life, and we will be encouraged with the Father's promise that he always hears the voice of his children in Christ.

So when her newest case pleads for her assistance against brownies, sprites, and pixie dust, she’s more than ready to file it under “not a chance.” But these Neo-Celts mean business, with a boldly charismatic leader who vows to return the world to the iron-fisted rule of the ancient gods. That plan infuriates the fiercest member of the Arcana Council, Death, whose deep Irish roots hide more secrets than Sara ever realized, and draws the focus of the dark-eyed, seductive Magician, deftly weaving his ever more twisted schemes. At the Council’s behest, Sara plunges headlong into Irish folklore, fantasy, and the very real, very frightening truth of the spaces between worlds, where the darkest memories go to hide… Memories that could upend everything Sara’s finally claimed as her own. Travelers beware! The fairies will all come out to play when you chase The Hallowed Knight.

Then one day, three teenagers and their families arrive from different parts of the globe.

Download or read book Hallowed Ground written by James M. McPherson and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James M. McPherson, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom, and arguably the finest Civil War historian in the world, walks us through the site of the bloodiest and perhaps most consequential battle ever fought by Americans: the Battle of Gettysburg. The events that occurred at Gettysburg are etched into our collective memory, as they served to change the course of the Civil War and with it the course of history. More than any other place in the United States, Gettysburg is indeed hallowed ground. It’s no surprise that it is one of the nation’s most visited sites (nearly two million annual visitors), attracting tourists, military buffs, and students of American history. McPherson, who has led countless tours of Gettysburg over the years, makes stops at Seminary Ridge, the Peach Orchard, Cemetery Hill, and Little Round Top, among other key locations. He reflects on the meaning of the battle, describes the events of those terrible three days in July 1863, and places the struggle in the greater context of American and world history. Along the way, he intersperses stories of his own encounters with the place over several decades, as well as debunking several popular myths about the battle itself. What brought those 165,000 soldiers—75,000 Confederate, 90,000 Union—to Gettysburg? Why did they lock themselves in such a death grip across these once bucolic fields until 11,000 of them were killed or mortally wounded, another 29,000 were wounded and survived, and about 10,000 were “missing”—mostly captured? What was accomplished by all of this carnage? Join James M. McPherson on a walk across this hallowed ground as he be encompasses the depth of meaning and historical impact of a place that helped define the nation’s character. “[I]n a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our power to add or detract.” —President Abraham Lincoln
Download or read book Hallowed Illusions written by Donna Quick and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phillip Collier is a gay man haunted by the woman in his dreams. She's beautiful, tempting, and self-assured in her affect on the opposite sex. Phillip's dreams are just the thing his grandfather, a retired Fundamentalist minister, has been praying for. It must be a sign from God and Pastor is ecstatic, even if the woman is only a figment of his grandson's imagination. Imagine Phillip's astonishment when he sees a sixty-year-old portrait of a woman named Audrey Russell who's a dead ringer for the woman in his dreams. But Phillip has a bigger problem than trying to make Pastor understand why he's not romantically interested in women. Not only is he trying to figure out what makes his grandmother panic with near hysteria when she sees Audrey's portrait, he's wondering why a band of gypsies has suddenly become so treacherous. When the bunch of gypsies is caught beating up Keven, Phillip's life partner, the Collier family uncovers a gypsy curse that is more than just a threat. Is the Collier family the target of evil gypsy lore that promises punishment for past transgressions and the lies of hallowed illusions?
Download or read book Hallowed Stewards written by William S. Bubelis and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of ancient Athenian politics, governance, and religion have long stumbled over the rich evidence of inscriptions and literary texts that document the Athenians’ stewardship of the wealth of the gods. Likewise, Athens was well known for devoting public energy and funds to all matters of ritual, ranging from the building of temples to major religious sacrifices. Yet, lacking any adequate account of how the Athenians organized that commitment, much less how it arose and developed, ancient historians and philologists alike have labored with only a paltry understanding of what was a central concern to the Athenians themselves. That deficit of knowledge, in turn, has constrained and diminished our grasp of other essential questions surrounding Athenian society and its history, such as the nature of political life in archaic Athens, and the forces underlying Athens’ imperial finances. Hallowed Stewards closely examines those magistracies that were central to Athenian religious efforts, and which are best described as “sacred treasurers.” Given the extensive but fragmentary evidence available to us, which consists mainly of inscriptions but includes such texts as the ps.-Aristotelian Constitution of the Athenians, no catalog-like approach to these offices could properly encompass their details, much less their wider significance. By situating the sacred treasurers within a broader religious and historical framework, Hallowed Stewards not only provides an incisive portrait of the treasurers themselves but also elucidates how sacred property and public finance alike developed in ancient Athens.
Download or read book Hallowed Days written by Daniel Hale and published by JournalStone. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hallowed Days is a collection of stories relating to two of the most iconic festivals of the year (as well as certain others). In "Pact of the Lantern," a trio of goblins strike out against the old seasonal traditions. In "Krampusnacht," a late-night holiday party devolves into an ancient winter custom of debauchery and dread. In "Eggshells," a man reminisces with his brother over a childhood egg hunt, while a boy follows his father into a bald eagle preserve in "Eagle Lights." Through it all, the seasons will change, and nightmares will be had. Rituals play out, and demons are, perhaps, banished for a time.
