After a tragedy that took the life of a loved one, seventeen year old Brooklyn Donavon is uprooted from the only home she has ever known. Eight years ago Brooklyn's mother walked out on her and now she wants her back. She is forced to move from her cattle ranch in Colorado to a small town in Connecticut where money seems to grow on trees. Living in a nightmare that is her reality, Brooklyn's world starts to spiral out of control— add Shane and Caleb Stark, her new step brothers whose only goal is to make Brooklyn's life a living hell and you have a recipe for disaster. That is until Kane Knight shows up out of nowhere and saves Brooklyn not once but twice. Kane's a mystery. No one knows anything about him, only that he's gorgeous and Shane Starks best friend. The last thing Brooklyn wants is to open her heart to someone again but one look into his icy eyes and she can't deny their instant connection. But even as their relationship grows, sometimes not even love can fix a broken soul. Will Brooklyn let Kane be her savior or will her darkness be too much to ever again be happy? Will Kane be able to save her from herself or will he be too late? Brooklyn learns that blood doesn't always make you family and family isn't always based on love— that sometimes the ones you think you know are only using you for revenge, while the ones you least expect to love actually find their way into your heart. Unwanted Truth is a story of love, but for Brooklyn and Kane to find a love so fierce their journey must start with darkness.

Download or read book The Logos written by Alfonso J Fernandez and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ancient Greek philosophers acknowledged the existence of a superior logic evident everywhere in nature that could only come from the mind of a creator. They called the Creator's Mind Logos, and we can know and understand the Logos through its attributes reflected in creation. The writers of the New Testament also had understanding of the term logos. They used it to describe Jesus. The Creator's Mind is the source of all truth, valid reasoning, and law; therefore, God's Mind can also be revealed through the understanding of his truth and laws. The faculty of reasoning allows us to determine what God's truth might be. However, we often reject the use of reason in exchange for our own convenient and/or irrational truths. This rejection separates us from God and such behavior represents the equivalent of the Original Sin. This book describes the consequences that the rejection of God's truth has in the different areas and aspects of the human experience, since this truth goes beyond the limits of religion or a religious experience. The Logos: the truth . according to God's Mind! demystifies the Mind of God through the understanding of his truth, revealing a totally rational God in his role as the only real absolute truth in the universe. This idea is not widely understood or commonly discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truth has always been a central preoccupation of philosophy in allits forms and traditions. Yet in the late twentieth century truth became suddenly rather unfashionable. The precedence given to assortedpolitical and ideological agendas, along with the rise of relativism, postmodernism and pseudoscience in academia, led to a decline both of truth as a serious subject, and an intellectual tradition thatbegan with the Enlightenment. Why Truth Matters is a timely, incisive and entertaining look at how and why modern thought and culture lost sight of the importance of truth. It is also an eloquent and inspiring argument for restoring truth to its rightful place. Jeremy Stangroom and Ophelia Benson, editors of the successful butterfliesandwheels website-itself established to "fight fashionable nonsense"-identify and debunk such senselessness, and the spurious claims made for it, in all its forms. Their account ranges over religious fundamentalism, Holocaust denial, the challenges of postmodernism and deconstruction, the wilful misinterpretation of evolutionary biology, identity politics and wishful thinking. Why Truth Matters is both a rallying cry for the enlightened vision and an essential read for anyone who's everbeen bored, frustrated, bewildered or plain enraged by the worst excesses of the fashionable intelligentsia.

Download or read book I Am A I written by Steven Joshua and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I AM A I, Unfolding the Flower As long as you 'walk this planet', you are going to be working with or applying the laws/truths of a physical science textbook. You will work with or apply gravity and the laws of motion in order to walk. You will work with or apply the laws/truths of thermodynamics to keep warm. You will work with or apply the laws of harmonics to speak. And...you may be totally unaware that you are applying these laws/truths as you move through physical form even though they have the potential of being everywhere and are "within you and without you" . Sound familiar? What can be said for physical laws applies to the spiritual laws/truths of Heaven as well. I AM A I, Unfolding the Flower provides you with a comprehensive model that synthesizes the physical sciences with the metaphysical sciences while incorporating the core concepts of most world religions. In addition, it provides you a set of very basic relatively generic tools, that when applied, can enhance your life experience, spiritual and non-spiritual. Some of the tools presented in this book are: O Truth perception and recognition exercises O A multitude of meditation forms are presented to you O Mechanics of your mind and exercises on how to use them O The mechanics of visualization exercises and exercises that extend your 'mind's eye' through time and space O Some elementary ESP exercises O Numerous exercise modalities for you to use music as a mental tool It is the operator's intention that determines the use of a tool. Just as it is the applications of the laws/truths inside a physical science book, that produces physical effects in your life. It is the applications of the laws/truths inside I AM A I that will produce spiritual or mystical effects in your life. And...a principle stated in this book -- the 'higher' determines the 'lower' - maintains that the spiritual or mystical results can have physical side effects.

Book excerpt: Many of us assume that our creative process is beyond our ability to influence, and pay attention to it only when it isn't working properly. For the most part, we go about our daily tasks and everything just "works." Until it doesn't. Adding to this lack of understanding is the rapidly accelerating pace of work. Each day we are face escalating expectations and a continual squeeze to do more with less. We are asked to produce an ever-increasing amount of brilliance in an ever-shrinking amount of time. There is an unspoken (or spoken!) expectation that we'll be accessible 24/7, and as a result we frequently feel like we're "always on." Now business creativity expert Todd Henry explains how to unleash your creative potential. Whether you're a creative by trade or an "accidental creative," this book will help you quickly and effectively integrate new ideas into your daily life.

Download or read book Willful Ignorance written by Helen T. Boursier and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using ethnographic research, Willful Ignorance: Overcoming the Limitations of (Christian) Love for Refugees Seeking Asylum examines the attitudes of clergy and lay leaders regarding their (in)attention to racism as it intersects with the harsh reality of U.S. immigration policies and practices. This multi-faceted work begins with a reality check on the scope of forced migration and its intersection with the historical legacy of racism in America, including testimonies from displaced migrants and immigration advocates who help to alleviate state-inflicted suffering at the U.S.-Mexico border. Helen T. Boursier examines the rationales Christian leaders use to justify the local church’s nominal response, including the discursive buffers and stall tactics they use to deflect their lack of preaching, teaching, leadership and/or ministry with displaced migrants who are their near neighbors. The Christian church’s firm foundation to embody love as social justice provides a historical rebuttal, while case studies of congregations that offer displaced migrants compassionate hospitality model exemplary contemporary response. Closing with practical suggestions for how to begin building bridges with migrants, Boursier argues for a philosophy of religion that embraces resistance to racism and exclusion from asylum, through a missiology of compassion that exemplifies an ecclesiology of love.

Book excerpt: Japheth the Tainted is on the hunt for a mysterious demon vampire. But meeting her face-to-face might disarm his warrior spirit—and spark an unquenchable passion with apocalyptic consequences. As a fallen angel, Japheth is determined to make his way back to heaven by staying pure and slaying hellspawn. With a new scourge of vampires unleashed by a blood-drinking demon, the Prince of Thirst, there’s plenty to be done. But Japheth is after one vampire in particular—the one they call the Angel Slayer. Rose Harley never wanted to be a vampire, but the Prince of Thirst can turn even the kindest soul into a soldier of hell. Feeling abandoned by God, she stalks the West Village taking revenge on his angels—until she meets her match. When Japheth and Rose encounter each other, the battle is fierce and charged with desire. But when they discover a common enemy—the Prince of Thirst himself—they form a dangerous alliance that could either cost them their eternal lives, or spark a love more powerful than heaven or hell.

Download or read book Gender and International Criminal Law written by Indira Rosenthal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few decades have seen remarkable developments in international criminal justice, especially in relation to the pursuit of individuals responsible for sexual violence and other gender-based crimes. Historically ignored, justified, or minimised, this category of crimes now has a heightened profile in the international political and judicial arena. Despite this, gender is poorly understood, and blind spots, biases, and stereotypes prevail. This book brings together leading feminist international criminal and humanitarian law academics and practitioners to examine the place of gender in international criminal law (ICL). It identifies and analyses past and current narrow understandings of gender, before considering how a limited conceptualization affects accountability efforts. The authors consider how best to implement a more nuanced understanding of gender in the practice of international criminal law by identifying possible responses, including embedding a sophisticated gender strategy into the practice of ICL, the gender-sensitive application of international human rights and humanitarian law, and encouraging a gender-competent approach to judging in ICL. The authors' aim is to strengthen efforts for accountability for all atrocity crimes-war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide, and aggression.
