From the New York Times-bestselling author of The Secret World of Weather and The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs, learn to tap into nature and notice the hidden clues all around you Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, humankind was navigating. Now this singular guide helps us rediscover what our ancestors long understood—that a windswept tree, the depth of a puddle, or a trill of birdsong can help us find our way, if we know what to look and listen for. Adventurer and navigation expert Tristan Gooley unlocks the directional clues hidden in the sun, moon, stars, clouds, weather patterns, lengthening shadows, changing tides, plant growth, and the habits of wildlife. Rich with navigational anecdotes collected across ages, continents, and cultures, The Natural Navigator will help keep you on course and open your eyes to the wonders, large and small, of the natural world.

This resulted in her becoming a vigilante named Rain who hunts sex traffickers and became a champion for enslaved women and children.

This is a book about the effect of prostitution, whether physical or spiritual in nature, on the human spirit. It is also a story about the hope we have in Christ and the difference God makes in lives. Love can be sought after in both a right and a wrong way. One way it produces death to our beings while the other, it brings a new vibrancy to life. But its all a delicate balance and if were not careful, we can fall away from the life bringing love to the destructive kind. The Bible warns that when we think were standing, weve already fallen. Its when we feel were above people lost in worlds we deem as dirty and less than acceptable that were on the edge of the cliff. In truth, we all sin and make mistakes. Come share in Rain and Lances life journey dealing with the heartache and fallout of choosing a path away from God and His love for a life of self and gods of this world.
