This is the story of a true haunting. It was the first ever filmed
and televised by NBC in 1971. A young couple purchases a building
that was built and occupied by a single family that refused to
relinquish their hold, even after death. Investigated and verified
by experts, this residence brought chaos to the lives of those who
chose to reside there. Unlike a horror novel, this chronicles what
a real ghostly experience would resemble. Long before the laws of
disclosure, a young couple winds up in the midst of strange
occurrences prior to the term 'paranormal' becoming a common
description. Searching for help at time when supernatural events
were a taboo subject and being ignored by the Church, sent them
into a desperate search for any assistance. Only a little known
organization came to their aid. Author Tom Valentine, brought in a
nationally known psychic, Joseph DeLouise, who then asked
assistance of an exorcist from England, Reverend William
Derl-Davis. Together, they gave their best effort at exorcising the
multiple spirits inhabiting the building and disrupting the lives
of the living. Events were filmed by NBC, who sent their most
prominent Chicago journalist, Carole Simpson, to cover the event.
Follow a young couple with a newborn as they attempt to cope with
inexplicable events, experience denial, plead for help from their
Church, and step into the world of the paranormal. Understand why
ghosts cannot be exorcised and a true example of their strong sense
of domain, even after death. Learn what experts and gifted people
did in a failed attempt to assist this desperate couple. There is
no happy ending, as the young couple suffers emotionally, are
physically threatened, have their pets terrorized, and eventually
suffer financially by actually "giving" their building away. What
was intended as a financial answer to their prayers became,
instead, a curse to be abolished. Learn many of the various
manifestations that can be common in haunting. Ghosts can be seen
and heard. They can propel objects and interrupt utilities. They
can affect your moods and feed off of your emotions. They can
appear as solid as you and me. They can react and become hostile if
threatened or violated. Most important, as this young couple
learned, they can harm you and cannot be removed. This is a
firsthand accounting of what a true haunting is like. There are
certain subtle occurrences you may find the most frightening,
because you just might relate and recognize them. If so, guess
what? You may have a ghost
What is life all about? Why am I here? Who do I see when I look in
the mirror? It is not a mystery who you are in Christ and what your
future holds. God has great blessings for us. God has declared His
plan for the redeemed and it is excitingly good news These
blessings are free to the believer, having been paid for by Christ
These blessings are "The Riches of Grace " Dave Hutchinson ...this
book has changed my thinking about my righteousness before God.
Previously, I attempted to live a godly Christian life, only to
feel that I had missed the mark and had come up short. My infantile
human efforts to be holy before God, only allowed me to obtain
human results. By realizing that Christ has presented me, by His
sacrifice on the cross for my sins, a pure white vessel before God
the Father, I now realize that God sees me, through Jesus Christ,
as a son. This understanding makes me desire to please and serve
Him more, and rest in the knowledge that I am truly a precious and
holy son of God. Jim Bond Your book reminds me much of the
excellent teaching of the Word from Pastor Chuck Smith, Greg
Laurie, Jon Courson, Gayle Erwin...I sense the hand of the Holy
Spirit on what you have written...Larry Fisher This book needs to
be in the hands of every new believer. It will clearly teach them
the fullness of grace and the power of Christ that is in each of
us, launching new disciples with power and purpose. Matthew Barrett
Dave, you have worked the blessings (Riches) of God into a lesson
about how one should react to the Lord and grow in their Christian
walk...Jim Harding
For many centuries, science and religion have remained staunchly
independent. Whenever issues have developed that simultaneously
touched on both areas, debate often ensued-for example, when
scientists first proposed that the earth revolved around the sun,
or when the theory of evolution was proposed. There has always been
a cultural disconnect between science and religion that has caused
dissention and distrust. Research conducted by author Fred R.
David, however, reveals that the missing link between science and
religion may be UFOs or, more specifically, the beings inside those
crafts.
"The UFO-Christianity Connection: Fact or Fiction"
reveals that UFOs played a significant role in how ancient
civilizations built megalithic structures and predicted celestial
events perfectly; brings to life the close association that ancient
civilizations had with ancient astronauts-whom they called gods or
sky people;
reveals that many events described in ancient writings,
including the Bible, involved UFO encounters;
gives readers a unique perspective to engage others in
discussing angels, God, UFOs, Bigfoot, Satan, giants, the
underworld, the flood, Atlantis, and Jesus.
The scientific information presented here is vital for people of
all faiths on all continents. Explore the missing link that bridges
the gap between science and religion.

In the first volume of his "Nonsense" Papers series, James W.
Astrada explored the controversial discussion of extraterrestrial
influence on the human species and planet Earth.
Now, on the precipice of the Digital Age, humanity is evolving
at an astonishing rate-but are we evolving quickly enough to be
entrusted with our advances? As we face the estimate that the human
population may swell to ten billion by 2050, we must demand debate
on how this finite planet can handle humanity's uncontrolled
growth.
This second installment of Astrada's series continues to focus
on humanity's perilous journey to connect with the power cosmic and
abandon our primitive and ignorant beliefs of the paranormal and
the mystic. It also looks at the origins of humanity, Darwinism,
geo-engineering, the dangers inherent as humans try to "control"
the weather, and more.
The race is on for the individual to ascend this reality we live
in, to finally reconnect with the galactic families of sentient
beings that await us if we try to master our humanity and all of
its obstacles. Are we the greatest threat to our own existence? Are
we ready for contact from another world?
Roger and Carolyn Perron purchased the home of their dreams and
eventual nightmares in December of 1970. The Arnold Estate, located
just beyond the village of Harrisville, Rhode Island seemed the
idyllic setting in which to raise a family. The couple unwittingly
moved their five young daughters into the ancient and mysterious
farmhouse. Secrets were kept and then revealed within a space
shared by mortal and immortal alike. Time suddenly became
irrelevant; fractured by spirits making their presence known then
dispersing into the ether. The house is a portal to the past and a
passage to the future. This is a sacred story of spiritual
enlightenment, told some thirty years hence. The family is now
somewhat less reticent to divulge a closely-guarded experience.
Their odyssey is chronicled by the eldest sibling and is an
unabridged account of a supernatural excursion. Ed and Lorraine
Warren investigated this haunting in a futile attempt to intervene
on their behalf. They consider the Perron family saga to be one of
the most compelling and significant of a famously ghost-storied
career as paranormal researchers. During a seance gone horribly
wrong, they unleashed an unholy hostess; the spirit called
Bathsheba...a God-forsaken soul. Perceiving herself to be mistress
of the house, she did not appreciate the competition. Carolyn had
long been under siege; overt threats issued in the form of fire...a
mother's greatest fear. It transformed the woman in unimaginable
ways. After nearly a decade the family left a once beloved home
behind though it will never leave them, as each remains haunted by
a memory. This tale is an inspiring testament to the resilience of
the human spirit on a pathway of discovery: an eternal journey for
the living and the dead.
