"Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" considers one of
life's most enduring questions. To find an answer, Hendrick Park
follows a trail of evidence that uncovers arguments for the
existence of God in the characteristics of the natural world, in
the moral and religious experiences of people's lives, and in the
knowledge contained in divine revelation.
Presented in three parts corresponding to the types of evidence,
this exploration draws upon the work of a variety of scientists,
philosophers, and theologians. In addition, narratives of Park's
personal encounters with the actions of God in his own life provide
illustrations that amplify the conclusions expressed by authorities
in the various fields of thought.
If you believe in God, but wonder about the reasons for faith
that reside in the natural world, human experience, and divine
revelation, then "Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" will
help to strengthen the foundations of your faith. By asking this
one big question-does God exist-you may find yourself asking and
then seeking answers to other deep questions about your ultimate
destiny with God. "Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" will
serve as your guide along the way.
Power is the point of envy of those who are weak and the pride
of those who are not. Although power can hold command over the
lives of others, it can very much lead to the destruction of the
one controlling it. Author Stephen R. Williams discusses the
pitfalls of abused power without repentance and guidance in his
latest book, "Samson-The Modern-Day America. "
Most people are familiar with the story of Samson, the only man
to hold incredible strength in the Bible. He was born to dedicate a
life of service to the Lord, ordained by God to be a Nazarite, and
destined to judge and rule the Philistines. A similar plot leads us
to the powerful country of America, which was once a nation of
people seeking for a place of worship and service to God. Through
time, both Samson and America acquired power that any entity could
ever want. However, a common weakness leads them both to
destruction.
Discover the cause of a great man's fall and its shocking
similarity to the struggle of a powerful country. Backed with
biblical Scriptures, "Samson-The Modern-Day America "is a book that
holds nothing but the key to a struggling country's redemption.
"Santo Daime: A New World Religion" deals with a young, exotic and
controversial religious movement. Emerging in the Brazilian Amazon
in the 1930s, Santo Daime has since spread to many of the world's
major cities. Santo Daime is a mixture of indigenous, popular
Catholic, Afro-Brazilian, esoteric, Spiritist, and new age beliefs
and activities. Ritual practice is centred on the consumption of a
psychotropic beverage called 'Daime' which members believe enhances
their interaction with the supernatural world. Because Daime is
treated as an illegal narcotic in many parts of the world, outside
of its Brazilian homeland most Santo Daime rituals are practised
clandestinely. This book unites extensive fieldwork experience with
an established theoretical background and makes a significant
contribution to understanding the contemporary interface of
religion and late-modern society. Individualization and religious
subjectivism, pluralization and religious hybridism, transformation
and detraditionalization, globalization and religious identity, and
commoditization and religious consumption are among the many issues
engaged by this book. "Santo Daime: A New World Religion" is an
accessible and multi-disciplinary book suitable for undergraduate
students and researchers working in Religious Studies, Sociology of
Religion, Anthropology, Cultural Studies and Latin American
Studies.

In America, there is one divorce every thirteen seconds. That's
6,646 divorces per day and 46,523 divorces per week. Why is the
divorce rate so high? Are people getting married too soon and not
getting to really know each other first, or are couples throwing in
the towel on their marriage without truly trying? When God ordained
the marriage of a man and a woman, He never said it would be easy,
because it involves the union of two imperfect people, blending
together with their own imperfections. Marriage is not a fairy
tale, with a "happily ever after" ending. However, it is a union
that requires two people working together daily at becoming one and
developing the ability to recognize the attacks of the enemy. In A
Well-Rounded Love Affair, you will learn how to focus on specific
areas to help your relationship blossom. Some of the important
areas are:
- Covering your marriage with prayer - Learning to forgive -
Realizing selfish love can't thrive - You and your spouse working

Through your reading, you will further see that it will take
