The enduring image of World War I is of men stuck in muddy trenches, and of vast armies deadlocked in a fight neither could win. It was a war of barbed wire, poison gas, and horrific losses as officers led their troops on mass charges across No Man’s Land and into a hail of bullets. While these impressions are all too true, they hide the fact that trench warfare was dynamic and constantly evolving throughout the war as all armies struggled to find a way to break through the opposing lines.

You may have noticed that much of today's ministry comes neatly packaged along with a slick marketing strategy. The offer of health, wealth, and success in all you do is a pleasant detour from the actual message of the Lord Jesus. Perhaps you never really considered that even though salvation is the free gift of God, transformation to spiritual maturity is not a gift at all. It's a process. The cross of Calvary was God's appointment for his son. The Cross in Your Path is the Son's appointment for You. This book is concerned with that second cross, the one you are to take up and carry.

During the Late Bronze Age, from about 1500-1200 BCE, the Near East was a time and place where great kingdoms and empires vied for land and influence, playing high stakes diplomatic games, trading, and occasionally going to war with each other in the process. The Egyptians, Hittites, Babylonians, Assyrians, and several smaller Canaanite kingdoms were all part of this system, which was one of the first true “global” systems in world history and also one of the most materially prosperous eras in antiquity.

It has been famously pointed out that the Holy Roman Empire was neither holy, nor Roman, but it was also not an empire in the sense people expect when hearing the term, but it is clear that church clergy occupied a privileged place in medieval society. Europe had inherited Christianity from the Roman Empire, and the concept of a united Christendom and empire were practically synonymous. Indeed, there was no real consciousness of the Roman Empire ever having ended.

When people think about unidentified flying objects (UFOs), they tend to think of flying discs piloted by gray beings with large heads and enormous eyes. They tend to think that these sightings only started relatively recently and that belief in UFOs is some sort of modern religion brought on, perhaps, by the very justifiable fears of a nuclear age. But a study of the phenomenon quickly reveals that humanity has been seeing UFOs since the beginning of recorded history and perhaps a lot longer than that.

PULSAR unveils the truth behind the technological advancements of the 20th century. Director of Space Relations and Counterintelligence for the CIA Adam Hunter receives a mysterious crate at his Washington, D.C. office one night. While doubting the origin of its contents, the promise it holds for Earth renders him unable to refuse its calling.

After waking up with no memories of his past, Azuelo finds some sanctuary in Stormhold, a city defended by the Promenauts from the vicious Gurgans lurking right outside its walls. Safety is not Azuelo's only concern, though. Soon after joining the Promenauts, he finds a strange necklace marked with an unknown avarune. Believing it to be the key to discovering who he is, Azuelo sets out to solve the mystery of the avarune necklace.

The history of the Sioux is replete with constant reminders of the consequences of both their accommodation of and resistance to American incursions into their territory by pioneering white settlers pushing further westward during the 19th century. Some Sioux leaders and their bands resisted incoming whites, while others tried to accommodate them, but the choice often had little impact on the ultimate outcome. Crazy Horse, who was never defeated in battle by U.S. troops, surrendered to them in 1877, only to be bayoneted to death by soldiers attempting to imprison him.

The Great Northern War, fought from 1700-1721, gets its name from the fact the war focused on the Baltic, but the battlefields extended into Germany and deep into Poland and Ukraine. Sweden was a military power with a small empire in the Baltic, while Russia was still a landlocked place, backward when compared to the rest of Europe, not very powerful, and highly xenophobic. The Poland-Lithuanian Commonwealth was still powerful, and the Cossacks were still free.

In terms of geopolitics, perhaps the most seminal event of the Middle Ages was the successful Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453. The city had been an imperial capital as far back as the 4th century, when Constantine the Great shifted the power center of the Roman Empire there, effectively establishing two almost equally powerful halves of antiquity’s greatest empire. Constantinople would continue to serve as the capital of the Byzantine Empire even after the Western half of the Roman Empire collapsed in the late 5th century.

The establishment of nations, governments, and the shaping of our world system evolved around historical incidents of good and evil. Roots of the Kingdom is a captivating chronology about humans, heavenly hosts, and supernatural phenomena that unveils the spiritual network. Revealed is the chain of rebellious episodes that undermined the pinnacle of creation–Yahweh’s beloved humans. Unfortunately, modern Biblical teachings usually omit or gloss over these insights.

We expose the truth of how the world and money really operates, showing how there's a "Financial Matrix" that keeps us stuck in the system designed to hold you back. More importantly, we learn what it takes to leave this system. The real meaning of financial freedom and the steps to get there, starting from nothing. How acquiring money involves taking it through transactions, not "making" it. How to use traditional employment as a tool rather than seeing it as constraint.

Conspiracy theories, and particularly the belief that elements of the world are secretly controlled by individuals or groups, have been around for as long as people have lived in groups. Perhaps that’s inevitable - after all, those who are excluded from power are very likely to be inclined to see their position not as an outcome of their own choices or situation but because of the secret machinations of shadowy groups.

Success is a journey filled with ups and downs, many of which are of our own making… Do you often compare yourself to others, wondering why their lives seem perfect while yours isn't? Do you lie awake at night, trapped in repetitive thoughts, questioning where it all went wrong? Sometimes life can feel so overwhelming, we get anxious about the future or we get stuck on a past regret and find it difficult to move on. These feelings are common, however most people try to avoid facing the true issues. So we avoid thinking about it, but change begins with a thought.

The American Revolution is replete with seminal moments that every American learns in school, from the “shot heard ‘round the world” to the Declaration of Independence, but the events that led up to the fighting at Lexington & Concord were borne out of 10 years of division between the British and their American colonies over everything from colonial representation in governments to taxation, the nature of searches, and the quartering of British regulars in private houses.
