Kevin Peeples, popular Florida surfer, who lives in the fast lane of fame, success, friends, and all the world can offer when it comes to women, drugs, alcohol and free will, soon learns that the world isn't all it is cracked up to be. The fast life he is living, and has become enslaved to through his backsliding sins, is destroying him and taking him to a slow but sure death. He has to lose everything he once thought was important - family, friends, and success - before he learns that those are not God's main purpose for his life or the reason he was put on this earth. When this adventure starts in the mountains of North Carolina, Kevin has no clue that it is a trip he was made for or that it is going to take him to "war." God takes him into the wilderness to face all the giants of his life, Satan and all the evil forces that he has been enslaved to for over fifteen years. He is delivered and set free, but finds that the demonic warfare he was delivered from returns with even more powerful principalities of darkness to try to re-enslave him and take him down in the wilderness. He "loses" everything but "finds" the Lord and his presence, not only as a true Father, but as a best friend for life. God trains him to be a soldier in Christ, to stand up and win, and overcome all the Devil dishes out in a powerful supernatural battle. Victory comes when he believes and uses the resurrection power God places deep within his heart. This has been an intense journey, but now fully trained, Kevin is ready to train others that are lost and slaved to their backsliding sins. His mission is to help others who have no voice but are desperate for freedom from the enemy.

History, Mystery, and Romance in the Carolina Lowcountry! A haunted necklace, a trickster rabbit, an ingenious slave, a shrieking droll, and a fianc returned from the dead all come to life in Lynn Michelsohn's new collection of Carolina Lowcountry ghost stories and folklore from the four historic rice plantations making up Brookgreen GardensSouth Carolina's popular tourist attraction near Myrtle Beach.

Lynn Michelsohn, a tenth generation Carolinian, is clearly drawn to history, mystery, and romance wherever she finds it, as her previous book, "Roswell, Your Travel Guide to the UFO Capital of the World!" explores intrigues of a different kind.

A veteran ghost rescuer, Sandra Staves has spent decades studying the paranormal. Her first interaction with a ghost was triggered by her own search for answers about life after death, and since then she has dedicated her career to helping ghosts find closure and move through the planes of spiritual existence. Staves' methods are gentler than those featured in contemporary Hollywood films: she utilizes peaceful, compassionate practices to confirm the presence of spirits lingering in the Earthly plane, and to facilitate their transition onward. By sharing her own experiences with hauntings, Staves debunks much of the superstition and mythology that dominates popular belief. Ghost Rescues is not a collection of campfire ghost stories; rather, it is a unique book full of expert insight to help those experiencing a haunting find understanding and resolution.

It's no surprise that the historic Massachusetts seaport's history is checkered with violence and heinous crimes. Originally called Naumkeag, Salem means "peace." However, as its historical legacy dictates, the city was anything but peaceful during the late seventeenth century. Did the reputed Boston Strangler, Albert DeSalvo, strike in Salem? Evidence supports the possibility of a copy-cat murder. From the recently pinpointed gallows where innocents were hanged for witchcraft to the murder house on Essex Street where Capt. Joseph White was bludgeoned to death and then stabbed thirteen times in the heart, Sam Baltrusis explores the ghost lore and the people behind the tragic events that turned the "Witch City" into a hot spot that has become synonymous with witches, rakes, and rogues.

The Hermetica are a body of mystical texts written in late antiquity, but believed during the Renaissance (when they became well known) to be much older. Their supposed author, a mythical figure named Hermes Trismegistus, was thought to be a contemporary of Moses. The Hermetic philosophy was regarded as an ancient theology, parallel to the revealed wisdom of the Bible, supporting Biblical revelation and culminating in the Platonic philosophical tradition. This new translation is the only English version based on reliable texts, and Professor Copenhaver's introduction and notes make this accessible and up-to-date edition an indispensable resource to scholars.

Throughout the ages, people have given the fairy kingdom various names. To some it was Paradise, to others Tir-nan-Og, Avalon, Country Underneath the Sea, Fairy Land, World of Immortal Youth, Land of Heart's Desire, Land of Life, or the Middle Kingdom. Fairy tales - the stories of this kingdom - are not only folk literature but also accounts of the subtler layers of fact clothed in poetic imagery. Rudolf Steiner was a close observer of the fairy kingdom and gave many lectures that describe the work of its inhabitants, whom he called elementals. It was clear to Steiner that these elementals were of great importance to the Earth, charged not only with the maintenance of Nature's household, but also with her evolutionary plans. He also spoke of how vital it is that we get to know these fairy workers and honor the work they do, so that their efforts prosper to carry the Earth forward in its evolution. Written and illustrated by two insightful women who experienced the fairy kingdom directly, this book offers a profound, yet simple introduction to fairy worlds and workers. Includes Ingrid Gibb's color paintings of the four races of Little People: Undines (water spirits), Gnomes (earth spirits), Sylphs (air spirits), and Fire-Spirits.

'A major work ... an extraordinary tour de force, [this book] will materially help to bring both sides (science and paranormal studies) together in a way which could lead to real and important advances in our view of the universe' - New Scientist First published in 1978, Mysteries is the powerful and enlightening sequel to The Occult, continuing Colin Wilson's investigations into the paranormal, the occult and the supernatural. The experience of his own panic attacks gave Wilson his insight into the concept of the ladder or hierarchy of selves with which we are all associated. In this book he fully explores this idea of multiple selves, explaining how our lower, childish selves are linked to depression and anxiety. The book offers an optimistic message to counteract our contemporary tendency towards pessimism and nihilism: purposeful activity will always allow us to call on our higher selves and bring concentration, control and a sense of meaning into life. Wilson uses the concept of the multi-personality to explain a wide range of paranormal phenomenon, from dowsing and demonic possession to precognition and spoon-bending, and he analyses the work of all the big names in 20th-century supra-rational research (from T C Lethbridge to Margaret Murray to Carl Jung) from this perspective. The story ranges widely, from the stone circles to 1960s LSD adventures, and Wilson's analysis is woven with hundreds of entertaining paranormal anecdotes and case studies taken from throughout history, including his own experiences of dowsing at the Merry Maidens stone circle and of visions and lucid dreaming.
