Hawken Trent. So polite. So sweet. Such an upstanding young man. A virgin, too, I hear. He never gets naughty with a girl. Probably because Jesus told him not to. And now here he is, trying to be the hero by protecting another girl from me. He calls me a bully. Irrational. Unreasonable. A criminal. He can call me anything he wants, I’ve heard worse. And he can try to stand between me and my money, but he’s never had to fight for food. That rich, clean, school boy doesn’t have what it takes

This is a book about discovering the secret to all the things we most desire: contentment, meaning, peace of mind, and true freedom. This skillfully edited translation of selections from the writings of Meister Eckhart (c. 1260-1328) provides a road map to the spiritual life for contemporary seekers. Eckhart takes us on a journey of discovery, a journey in which we learn to let go, relinquish our need to know everything, and lose those things that we think are important for a life of worth. And in the end he shows us that the true secret is: to find yourself, you must lose yourself.

Wie in seinen Äußerungen über Goethe, so auch in seiner Beurteilung anderer Schriftsteller, verriet Börne seine Nazarenische Beschränktheit. 'Juden' und 'Christen' sind für mich ganz sinnverwandte Worte im Gegensatz zu 'Hellenen', mit welchem Namen ich ebenfalls kein bestimmtes Volk, sondern eine sowohl angeborene als angebildete Geistesrichtung und Anschauungsweise bezeichne.

For those who have the intention but lack the lifetime it would take to study the entire history of spirituality, this extraordinary compendium is a great gift. Joshua David Stone has gleaned the essentials from vast research, as well as intuitive information, and woven them into a simple and engrossing exploration of self-realization.

The revised and expanded third edition of Hot Talk, Cold Science forms the capstone of the distinguished astrophysicist Dr. S. Fred Singer’s lucid, yet hard scientific look at climate change. And the book is no less explosive than its predecessors—and certainly never more timely. Singer explores the inaccuracies in historical climate data and the failures of climate models, as well as the impact of solar variability, clouds, ocean currents, and sea levels on global climate—plus factors that could mitigate any human impact on world climate.

Whitney Mason is the daughter of a Wall Street con man. When he is sent to prison and her family’s name is destroyed, she is eager for a new life on a new world. Anywhere but Earth. Tested by the Interstellar Brides Program, she is matched to a strong Viken warrior. What she doesn’t know is that her mate and the other two warriors waiting to claim her are on a secret and dangerous mission for the Coalition Fleet’s Intelligence Core. From the moment she arrives on Viken, they are forced to lie to her...about everything...except their desire.

With my empire in ruins, our only chance at survival is to run. There’s nothing I want more than to take back what’s mine and restore order to the shattered remnants of my life. There’s nothing I need more than Brigit. But choosing her means abandoning countless people I’ve promised to protect. Choosing her would make me a monster. And walking away would be the end of me.

In a life like mine, there is only danger dressed up in money and power. I’m a monster in expensive suits and an opulent home. Brigit is an innocent angel with only the clothes on her back. She’s on the run from a nightmarish arranged marriage, and I’m her only hope in the city. If she works my business, she’ll be able to buy herself a new life. But the moment she steps into my life is the moment she’s trapped forever. She thinks she can tempt me and slip away like a thief in the night. She thinks I can make her mine and then let her go. She’s never been so wrong.

I fell in love with the city’s cruelest billionaire. He broke my heart. That’s the awful truth at the heart of our story. I fell for him, and he let me go. The nightmare I tried to run from chased me down and caught me in its clutches. Now my survival rests in the hands of that mean, beautiful monster. I don’t mean anything to him. But he means everything to me.

Brillante y con tintes fantásticos como un Grimm, realista como un O. Henry o despiadado como un Saki, sus historias fueron adaptadas por Alfred Hitchcock para la televisión, y han inspirado a creadores como Steven Spielberg o Quentin Tarantino.

Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better. This is the vision of the Great Reset, according to globalist leaders. While proponents of the Great Reset push slogans like “Build Back Better”, “The Fourth Industrial Revolution”, and “A New Normal”, the Reset is nothing short of a rebranded Soviet system, threatening to strip away property rights, restrict freedom of movement and association, and radically reshape our diets and way of life.

Communist China is ambitious. It wants to replace the United States as the world’s leading superpower. And it is well on its way. It is dominant in the world economy. It is a master at intellectual property theft. It shows strategic genius at cornering essential markets. It has been staggeringly successful in buying influence among American elites. And its military buildup is astonishing. So far, China has been waging a cold war on the United States and its Asian allies. But, emboldened by American weakness and decline, that cold war is about to turn hot.

The only thing former Coalition warriors Calder, Zed, and Axon have in common are long years spent battling the Hive and their eagerness to claim their personal reward - their own interstellar bride. When news arrives on Viken that each of the warriors has been matched, they gather at the transport station only to receive two unwelcome surprises.

In a world that is “woke”, how many Christians are actually awake? This short theologically sound primer is a resource for pastors, ministry leaders, community leaders, and other thinking Christians that explains carefully and clearly what critical race theory and wokeness truly are, what the Bible teaches about race and ethnicity, why wokeness is distinct from Christianity and should be rejected, and how the church can work for unity based in the gospel of grace.

Strong men are not “toxic.” If they go away, evil men take their place, and weak men offer no resistance. The idea that masculine men—assertive, risk-taking, single-minded—are a problem to be solved threatens our whole society. The cultural elites cheering the decline of men are trying to erase God’s design for half of the human race—the half that historically provides, protects, and leads for the good of others. The disappearance of the masculine ideal is bad news for men, and it’s terrible news for women. What will happen without men of courage and conviction?

Kade and Hunter Caruthers. Brothers. Twins. My cousins. In a way, they’re my family. Protective. Indulgent. My best friends. But there was something else there, too. That ever-present whisper that reminded me more as I got older that we didn’t actually share any blood. They used to be inseparable. We all were, but not anymore. I don’t know why Hunter left or why he joined a rival team in Weston—that Rebel town across the river—to stand on the opposite side of the field from his brother, but Kade is out for blood now and Hunter has finally decided to engage.

Je donnerais n’importe quoi, pour l’avoir à mes côtés, n’importe quoi, vraiment. Tout sauf sa vie, mais je suis presque sûr que c’est le prix à payer. Daisy Haites pensait avoir laissé son ancienne existence derrière elle : la pègre londonienne, sa famille et l’homme qu’elle aimait. Mais lorsque sa sécurité est à nouveau menacée, elle se retrouve sous la surveillance étouffante de son frère, Julian, un chef de gang impitoyable, et de son ex, Christian, tous deux déterminés à la protéger.

Der Auftakt der großen neuen Krimi-Reihe von Michael Kobr, Mitautor der Kluftinger Krimis. Weiße Strände, goldgelbe Felder, idyllische Küstendörfer und Sonne rund ums Jahr: Die gemütliche dänische Urlaubsinsel Bornholm scheint der ideale Platz, um das Leben ein wenig ruhiger angehen zu lassen. Das denkt sich zumindest der hochdekorierte Kriminalpolizist Lennart Ipsen und übernimmt daher – frisch geschieden und gesundheitlich angeschlagen – bewusst die Leitung der überschaubaren Insel-Kripo.

Patrick Kenzie recibe el encargo de la conocida psiquiatra Diandra Warren de proteger a su hijo Jason, víctima de amenazas y mensajes anónimos, supuestamente por parte de la mafia irlandesa. El caso suena arriesgado, aunque sencillo: sin embargo, cierta incongruencia en los hechos parece indicar la existencia de una amenaza más profunda. La investigación se complica cuando el degradado barrio bostoniano de Dorchester, en el que Kenzie vivió su adolescencia, se convierte en escenario de asesinatos cuya singular crueldad recuerda crímenes ocurridos veinte años antes allí mismo.

Provinzialismus, Korruption und aufstrebender Nationalismus bestimmen das München der 20er Jahre. Das erfährt Dr. Martin Krüger, Direktor der staatlichen Sammlungen, bitter am eigenen Leib. Mit seiner Vorliebe für expressionistische Kunst ist er den politischen Mächten ein Dorn im Auge. Ein hinterhältig angezettelter Meineidsprozess befördert ihn kurzerhand ins Gefängnis. Das atmosphärische SWR-Hörspiel zeichnet nicht nur die aufstrebende Macht der Faschisten nach, sondern ist zugleich eindrucksvolles Gesellschaftspanorama einer ganzen Epoche.
