Plunge into the depths of the unknown in this thrilling work of
nonfiction, combining history, science, nature writing, and
environmentalism, that invites its reader to explore the deepest
recesses of our natural world. Oceans created, shaped, and sustain
not just human life, but all life on Planet Earth, and perhaps
beyond it. They are our history — from evolution to exploration
and colonialism; our present — from beach holidays to
transporting food and goods; and our future — we cannot survive
if sea levels are too low or too high, temperatures too cold or too
warm. They are also vast spaces of immense wonder and beauty, and
our relationship to them is innate and awe-inspired. Deep Water is
both a personal and wide-ranging reckoning with our complex
relationship with the natural world, a book shaped by tidal
movements and deep currents, lit by the presence of other minds and
other ways of being. It speaks directly and uncompromisingly of the
pressing urgency of the environmental catastrophe that is
overtaking us, but is also suffused with the glories of the ocean,
and the extraordinary efforts of the scientists and researchers
whose work helps us to understand its secrets. For it is in this
work, and the new ways of seeing it offers us, that we will find a
means to understand our relationship not just with the planet, but
our past, and perhaps most importantly, our future.
Enter a world where demons still stalk the earth. Fortunately, the
Vatican Elite Force is there to make sure that they don't steal
souls without a fight.
Now, one of the Vatican's best special agents and assassins -
Father Domenico Marsala - is on his most important mission yet:
He's tracking down Asmodais Winters, the demon prince of lust who
has already survived four assassination attempts.
Iblis, the self-proclaimed King of the Jinn, has ordered
Asmodais to revisit America in a bid to draw more human followers
to the evil side. The mission holds special significance to
Asmodais, who wants to find his daughter and former lover so he can
bring them back to Paris.
The Vatican Elite Force thinks that it has a good shot of
ridding the world of the demon prince once and for all, but Father
Marsala is about to face evil on a scale that he never imagined.
Join him as he follows a path that features plenty of intrigue,
lust and unexpected twists on the way to Fighting Evil.
On the success of his two bestselling books about World War II,
James Bradley began to wonder what the real catalyst was for the
Pacific War. What he discovered shocked him.
In 1905 President Teddy Roosevelt dispatched Secretary of War
William Taft, his daughter Alice, and a gaggle of congressmen on a
mission to Japan, the Philippines, China, and Korea with the intent
of forging an agreement to divide up Asia. This clandestine pact
lit the fuse that would-decades later-result in a number of
devastating wars: WWII, the Korean War, and the communist
revolution in China.
In 2005, James Bradley retraced that epic voyage and discovered the
remarkable truth about America's vast imperial past. Full of
fascinating characters brought brilliantly to life, "The Imperial
Cruise" will powerfully revise the way we understand U.S. history.
A guide to communicating the power and significance of baptism.
Although the sacrament of baptism is central to Christian
experience, it is usually only discussed in many churches when a
baptism happens to be occurring. In Preaching Baptism, priest and
noted preacher James Bradley Shumard identifies ways to reinforce
baptismal values in the weekly liturgy, from the pulpit in sermons,
as well as from other teaching moments in the liturgy. Including
chapters on preaching about baptism across the church year,
connecting the lectionary to baptism, baptismal vows, and more,
this volume offers guidance to clergy in keeping baptismal vocation
at the core in every Sunday's sermon.
