Corpus ChristiWhen the mortal remains of Christ are found in a disused Irish monastery, the Universal Catholic Church will stop at nothing to prevent their discovery from the public eye while an equally determined former Irish Republican Volunteer and his first love will allow no barrier to stand in the way of the truth even while being pursued by the deadly ruthless Miles Dei. Weaving through the beautiful Irish countryside, the great European cities of London, Belfast, Dublin, Rome, and Geneva as well as some of the most breathtaking scenery in Europe, Corpus Christi is a buckle-up ride from start to finish, moving seamlessly from the time of Christ through the formative years of Northern Ireland's Troubles to contemporary times. Beginning with a shocking discovery, it continues with a pulsating middle and finishes with an end that satisfies.

We are, indeed, lucky to inhabit the world with Bette and her team. Her impact is inspiring, and her resolve even more so because, like so many true heroes, again and again, she willingly stepped outside of her life and into the lives of others when it was needed the most; and while she makes it sound easy, make no mistake, to feel, give, and love as fully as Bette has involves extreme sacrifice. Thank you, Bette. Betsy Banks SaulCEO Heal House Call VeterinarianFounder Petfinder.com and 911FosterPets.com"e;The stories Bette Anderson shares in -Home At Last- True Lost Dog Stories are heart-warming and inspiring. Bette and her team combined remarkable instincts, sleuthing skills, tenacity, and compassion to make many families whole again. While others may have written off these pleas for help saying, 'It's just a dog,' Bette knew these were lost family members and took up each challenge as a personal crusade. Others would have been defeated by extreme weather conditions and downright bad odds but not this team! There are angels among us, and Bette and her team are chief amongst them. Having been in animal welfare work, I've seen and lived stories that could harden the softest of souls. Even so, Bette's book elicited more tears than this old dog should have left to shed. I know -Home At Last-True Lost Dog Stories will inspire others to get more involved in helping their neighbors-two and four-legged alike."e;Jim Tedford, CAWAPresident and CEOSociety of Animal Welfare Administrators (SAWA)"e;I found myself pulled into the reality of each dog's story in such a way that it seemed I was right there with the people who made a difference.

It is rare to discover individuals as dedicated as those portrayed in this book."e;Darlene LarsonASPCA Senior Director, Community Initiatives (Retired)

As I slid on my knees, I could feel the smooth marble floor under my fingertips. My gauntlets long since lost, my helmet dented and cast to the side. My slide came to a stop and I turned on my left knee and raised my sword, Hunnin, in a guard position. I could see the blood drip from its tip. Hunnin had found its mark and had bit deep. I looked past Hunnin to the enemy I had been fighting for more than an hour. He was on his knees with his back to me and I knew from the blood pouring from the wound in his side, I knew he had only seconds before he bleeds out. I walked around to his front. I looked up to the only window in the room and the man that I had been hunting. I thought to see a look of fear or anger on his face at the loss of his champion but it held only a smile. My heart sank as I knelt in front of my foe and removed her helmet. My wife smiled at me and said, "e;He told me you were dead. Thank you for freeing me, my love."e; With her last breath she slumped forward into my arms. The maniac slammed back to full control of my mind. This time. I let him have full control. I can still feel the blood that followed and hear the screams of those that followed my wife to the grave. With Freya at my side, and both Hunnin and Munnin in hand, I became the maniac again and would not stop till the world was mine.

While there is no ideal way to explain divorce or separation to children, the story attempts to offer an illustration in a manner easy for younger readers to understand. In The Pigeon and the Seagull, the author attempts to simplify and explain the events surrounding divorce and, ultimately, provide a positive glimpse into the future in a postmarriage relationship.

So many of us have asked the question: What is my purpose? Or my why. I grew up in Iowa, made a stop of fourteen years in Salt Lake City, Utah, and then transplanted to Dallas upon meeting my husband, Kevin Thompson. He lived in Texas and I in Utah, so after dating just over a year, we decided the over one thousand four hundred miles apart could only go on so long. Growing up in an average American family with functional dysfunction, graduated from Drake University, lived in three different states, experienced a divorce after fourteen years, and now remarried nine years, I've come face-to-face with ample discipline. And after moving eight times in the same nine years, you don't just clean your house, you clear your mind. This story of why and how the art of living a minimalistic lifestyle will do more than create harmony in your home. It's shifted us from investing in our flesh to an ongoing investment in the Spirit. We also wish to be understood like the millennials you may not agree with all our choices, home decor, or facets of life we've carved out like artwork, literally. I'd like to say it's been a quick, simple shift, but we've had to make some eye-opening and major decisions in our behaviors. Not because of lack but for the greater cause as our goals, dreams, and desires have shifted. In order to move forward, you must look for a moment to learn from life's challenges and be disciplined. Discipline brings about wisdom because we learn something through every challenge no matter its size. Not only did our goals shift, but the mind-set for why we were creating these goals has changed. So when asked what does being a minimalist mean, just remember one word: humble. I pray and hope through my testimonies I'll share from my journey, you'll humble your heart, create your own goals, and integrate those pieces of minimalism that speak to you throughout this book. Most importantly, remember to move not just the stuff from your life but make it a lifetime journey to be more with less. Abscission will tell our story of the paradigm shift we made toward living an intentionally simple life and finding where needing less left us wanting more: more time, more appreciation, more quality, more freedom, more meaning, more purpose, more creating, more hope, more health, more wisdom, more discipline, and more life to be lived fully. Like a tree has its seasons shedding old leaves and bearing new fruit, abscission is the full circle definition of how minimalism takes place in your life once you fully understand what it has to offer.

Everyone comes to Gettysburg to see the battlefield, tour the town, hear about the tactics, walk among the monuments, but what about the 21,000 wounded soldiers who remained here at Gettysburg? They did not just vanish. Every public building, both colleges, private homes, and even farms were turned into hospitals. I am reminded of the line from the Musical 1776, "e;Is anybody there? Does anybody care?"e; These sites need to be preserved and remembered just like the battlefield, because whether you want to believe it or not, these sites are part of the history of the Battle Gettysburg and are just as important as the preservation of the battlefield itself. The book is broken down into several sections-the town, farms, and homes north of town; farms and homes south of town; farms and homes east of town; farms and homes west of town; the major Federal Corps Field Hospitals, the Village of Fairfield, the Village of Hunterstown, the Village of Cashtown, Camp Letterman, and finally Field Dressing Stations. Each section is listed alphabetically by street or road and then listed numerically along the street. I hope you enjoy this guide book to the hospitals I found in Gettysburg and the surrounding communities and the area of the battlefield.

Included in this writing is Old Covenant instruction to Israel showing that they were required to tithe as a way of support for the temple and the Levitical Priesthood. Those instructions are very clear as to what they were to take tithes from and to whom those tithes were to be given. Under the New Covenant that temporary physical system was replaced by an eternal spiritual system of support for ministers who teach the gospel. They are to be provided for in a way superior to tithing, and this work points out what the Bible says about it

Established in the high-crime years of the late 1980s, Maywood Correctional Facility was designed to house the region's most violent and prolific felons. Inevitably, it suffered from the same problems endemic to similar institutions: extreme violence, drug abuse, gangs jockeying for power, high recidivism rates, high suicide rates, and a suffocating climate of futility and despair. Conditions go from bad to worse when the prison is privatized in the late 1990s. Under the supervision of Incarceration Alternatives-a ruthless, profit driven corporation-Maywood's inmates are seen as mere customers. As a result, the few remaining educational and jobs programs are severely curtailed for the sake of increasing shareholder profits.This dismal status quo is challenged upon the arrival of Father Dale Imbus-a worldly Jesuit priest-convicted of assaulting a police officer and providing unlawful assistance to Mexican and Latin American immigrants. The charismatic priest immediately begins to change the hearts and minds of Maywood's population, compelling the inmates to question the meaning of their suffering, the possibility of forgiveness, the purpose of their lives, and their prospects upon release. As rumors of the priest's ability to heal bodies and souls spread beyond the confines of Maywood, a group of wealthy, sympathetic citizens commence plotting a takeover of Incarceration Alternatives. The stage is set for two interrelated conflicts: one between the citizen supporters of Maywood's inmates and the shareholders who determine its purpose and priorities; the other between the priest's growing band of loyal disciples and the members of an ultraviolent Aryan gang, committed to reclaiming their diminishing power by any means necessary.
