  • - Part 1 of the Andy Mcphee Trilogy
    von Kenn Gordon
    29,00 €

    The first novel entitled Altered Perceptions is the first part of a trilogy featuring Andy McPhee and Team Seven of the SIS Black Door Operations. SIS does exist, as do Black Door Ops. What goes on at CDE Porton Down is part factual and part fiction. Although this story is fiction, or you could say factional, the enriched uranium and plutonium did go missing from FBR Dounreay. The Secret Royal Navy program, the Vulcan Project, did take place between the RN and Rolls Royce.There were two major accidents at FBR Dounreay, and they were covered up. There is still two miles of off-limit shoreline, where pieces of plutonium are being found near Dounreay. Much of what happened in the first book did happen in real life. Some is, of course, pure fiction. Real names have been changed. The majority of the places exist.Gruinard Island was used by the British Government to test out bacteriological and viral spores of anthrax. The island remained uninhabitable for almost fifty years. The UK has signed up to the Geneva Convention that bans the use of chemical and biological warfare. Yet it continues to make these banned items. The UK is not alone in this. The USA, France, Belgium, Germany, along with the majority of countries in the west, are also part of it. Yet they condemn third-world countries who try to make them, and in some cases, they even supply these countries with the parts required to make them. That is a fact.

    Over the ages, Christianity has experienced and endured many hardships, trials, struggles, martyrdoms, persecutions, and all sorts of pain for generations from since the church was born. But the actual fact is that the spiritual war that started at the creation of this present world between good and evil has been raging on over the ages and has never stopped. In fact, as the days go by and the end of the present system of things is coming nearer and nearer, according to the Bible, things are going to get worse and worse. This is what has been written in the Bible about Lucifer, the devil.However, the church still has to go on and not despair or lose hope. And most importantly, the church should not lose focus. Why? Because she believes in the almighty, powerful, and able God, the faithful God, the God of the universe, who is the Creator of the heavens and the earth. The Christian faith and hope is not hope in the human spirit, human goodness, human abilities, human qualifications, human intellectuality, human endurance, human experience, human plans, or human achievements. Rather it is hope in the power and faithfulness of the living God-the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Abraham''s God was and is the God of the whole earth. He is the God of Jacob, the father of the twelve tribes of Israel. Christianity believes in the God, who does not fail. This God is known for his abilities, which are unique and cannot be compared with anyone else or with any other god.

  • - Volume 5
    von Greer Bobbie Greer
    24,00 €

    In February 2019, I travelled again to Ethiopia with the Hope for Ethiopia team attached to Whitewell Metropolitan Tabernacle in Belfast. We met once again with our brothers and sisters in Christ on our one-week visit. To say that our time spent there was blessed would be an understatement. During our time there, we had the opportunity to take part in worship and fellowship with them, but our hearts were again truly stolen by the children there. We took with us on the trip in excess of fifty suitcases filled with gifts for the children, simple and inexpensive gifts-a few T-shirts, underwear, a toy,and some sweets. Our reward was the tears of joy displayed on each little face. Perhaps it was a logistical nightmare in the packing and carriage of the suitcases, but in truth, the smiles on display made all the effort worthwhile.We visited three separate locations-Kuriftu, where we have a school, church, and clinic with over four hundred children attending the Christ Centered School; Bobaguya, where we have a Bible class and kindergarten for around sixty children, allowing their parents to find work; and finally, Ambo, where we have really seen the hand of God moving among his people in a makeshift church the congregation has grown to over three thousand worshippers! Even better was the news that greeted us there. This congregation, despite their poverty, have managed to raise over seventy thousand dollars for the provision of foundations for the newly planned church there. Hearts were melted among us by all we experienced.On my return, I resumed work on my poetry, invigorated by all that I experienced there. The format of Poems of Conviction: Volume 5 remains the same, and once again, all proceeds from the sales of these books will go directly to brightening up the lives of the children of Ethiopia. If you have purchased a copy, I offer my heartfelt thanks on their behalf. God Bless.

  • - Systematic Theology and Principles of Behaviour
    von Robert Wyeth

  • von Dirk De Bock
    21,00 €

    As I had mentioned before in my sixth book, I had already started my number 7. Writing becomes quite a habit, which I like very much of course. This seventh book feels rather fresh; many new ideas came up in my head. The poems are generally on handling lots of stuff.It''s not particularly soft like the fifth book, Never Give Up. On the other hand, it''s not as fierce and heavy as number 6, Stay Strong, was. It''s a unique collection of many repetitive poems-a style that I have improved a lot because I like writing like that even though it''s not always easy.The strength to keep on writing hasn''t left me even though bad experiences have been part of my life in 2017 and 2018 due to mistakes of other people who have robbed me in their smiling innocence. Writing makes me forget that many servicepeople aren''t good or willing to help you. But I believe in God.This seventh book, Higher Power, is also being published by Xlibris, as all the aforementioned.

    Hi, my name is Aine Rutherford. I am now seventeen years old I started writing my book about my journey with depression in 2016 when I was 15. This book is about my teenage years with depression and bipolar disorder. I am writing this book to hopefully help someone out there and give them a big reminder they are not alone! I myself am a very talkative person when I'm in the right frame of mind. I love all my animals and I love my music. I suffered with depression now 6 years and I had my fair share of unwanted thoughts such as suicidal thoughts and thoughts about hating myself. This book is for helping someone out. Making someone smile or giggle at me and with me a bit and making them not feel so alone.

  • von Malcolm Rothwell
    28,00 €

    This is a compelling autobiography which draws you in from the very first page. The catch is that some of the details are factual, whilst others are pure fiction. The author, Malcolm Rothwell, is selected and trained for a secret mission in war torn Germany. Having completed his mission he, and his accomplices, have to plan a means of escape. There is plenty of cloak and dagger and, indeed, Malcolm and his friends are captured and imprisoned. The story is interspersed with thoughtful reflections on the joys and challenges of the Christian faith. A femme fatale is also involved. This is an intimate and resonant historical drama.

    The concepts of nutrition encompass two kinds of knowledge and ability. The first one is a knowledge and understanding of the individual nutrients that we need as human beings to work, learn, socialize, and exercise at our best. We need to understand what they are, what they do, and what happens if we do not have these nutrients. The second one is the ability to use these nutrients together to understand which foods they come from and what to do with these foods so that we get all the nutrients we need in the amounts that we need them. This program looks at nutrition from a holistic point of view that it not only gives facts about the nutrients we need but also looks at what to do with our newfound knowledge and understanding.

    "HOW DID THIS GET HERE?" This fashionable question made famous in the late eighties was the sole reins for me to start the compilation of poems in this book. I have no idea 'HOW' this got here ... but once it was 'HERE' ... I was determined to make it ... at least ... memorable. There's a little back story to this compendium or my involvement in poetry. Frankly, I'm not truly a fan. Until very recently these flypaper words were just doodles and scribbles on torn paper and tatted notebooks, until a friend read one or two and remarked rather innocuously, if I had any others and wouldn't it be nice if there was a collection of them in one place.Well I have taken her advice and made sort of an anthology of them. They are from different periods of my life, so I hope you will please bear with me. What I knew as a young man, like most things I didn't understand until I was well into my forties. What are the odds of actually writing scribbles and then be fortunate to compile them and have them published? Well this is a chance for my words to have a mouthpiece. Meaning one of you out there. There's nothing better than being part of the echo of that nameless but great representative.

  • - Listen to the Child in Me
    von Ann Kemp
    18,00 €

    How can I summarize these poems except to say they represent my innermost thoughts and feelings-an exposure of my soul, if you will.They demonstrate the pain of past years, but suffice to say, that pain also allowed me to develop a sturdiness and doggedness that has served me well. Although it may not be evident, I more than survived and found contentment.I want to tell you that you can too!

  • - A New Springtime for the Preferential Option for the Poor/Vulnerable?
    von Michel Simo Temgo Scj
    28,98 €

    Since its first use in the 1960s, the term 'Preferential option for the poor' has never stopped stirring up debates. This book examines its use in theology today. It turns to two contemporary Jesuits: Jon Sobrino (Liberation theologian) and Pope Francis (Representative of the theology of the people). From the comparative analysis of their understanding of the expression and considering new forms of human suffering as well as the sufferings of all of creation nowadays, this book suggests that the 'preferential option for the poor' should be replaced in theology today by 'compassion for the vulnerable'.
