Egan's characters, models and housewives, bankers and schoolgirls, are united by their search for something outside their own realm of experience.

Thomas Roop has been fortunate enough to travel widely through his life, learning from a wide variety of cultures, traditions, and religions. These encounters inculcated and developed a love for humankind. While travelling through Denmark, he encountered and fell in love with the work of the 19th century poet, novelist, and playwright Hans Christian Anderson. The literature of T. S. Eliot, Carl Sandburg, Sylvia Plath, Maya Angelou, and others are all evident influences on Roop’s own work.

Doctrinal deviation, degeneration, and denigration is a perilous path leading not to genuine unity of the Spirit, as posited by its propagators, but rather disunity with the Spirit, apostasy, perdition, and ultimately hell itself! An oft recited slogan in some segments of the church over the last few decades is: "We must agree to disagree without being disagreeable." In itself, the import of that pun has some merit.

The biblical King David of Israel was known for his diverse skills as both a warrior and a writer of Psalms. In his 40 years as ruler, between approximately 1010 and 970 BCE, he united the people of Israel, led them to victory in battle, conquered land and paved the way for his son, Solomon, to build the Holy Temple. And thus David's royal family begins, extending all the way to Jesus Christ, King of the Jews.

Als Karl May von 1884-1886 seinen Kolportageroman "Der verlorene Sohn" schrieb, gelang ihm eine wunderbare Mischung zwischen den Genreelementen Drama, Gesellschafts-, Detektiv- und Liebesroman. Vielerorts hören wir darüber hinaus Kritik an den sozialen Verhältnissen der arbeitenden Bevölkerung. Insbesondere die zweite Abteilung „Sklaven der Arbeit“ weiß den Leser oder in unserem Fall den Hörer zu fesseln. Anschaulich beschreibt die Vertonung dieses Romanteils die Not der Weber in Karl Mays Heimat und schildert eine Intrige, die vor langer Zeit passierte und der sich nun der geheimnisvolle „Fürst des Elends“ annimmt.

Here Come the Romans is a progressive survey on the historical influence of Rome and how it influenced the times, events, customs, religious institutions, and specifically the life of Jesus, the Jewish people, and the New Testament. Its progressive style guides the listener through a 675 year period of selected history to educate how Rome fitted the biblical narrative and story. The Bible ascribes divine inspiration to the scriptures, but we often forget the human side. The birth of prophecy or all scriptures originated out of human struggles, circumstances, and situations.

Êtes-vous de ceux qui déshabillent leurs Whippet avant de les manger ? Ou encore faites-vous partie de ceux qui font exploser la coque de chocolat avant de les déguster ?

Le biscuit causera une commotion quand l’usine qui le fabrique sera délocalisée à l’extérieur du Québec en 2020. Un abandon selon certains… dont il ne restera que des miettes.
