Cold Kiss


Book Description

It was a beautiful, warm summer day, the day Danny died. Suddenly Wren was alone and shattered. In a heartbroken fury, armed with dark incantations and a secret power, Wren decides that what she wants—what she must do—is to bring Danny back. But the Danny who returns is just a shell of the boy Wren fell in love with. His touch is icy; his skin, smooth and stiff as marble; his chest, cruelly silent when Wren rests her head against it. Wren must keep Danny a secret, hiding him away, visiting him at night, while her life slowly unravels around her. Then Gabriel DeMarnes transfers to her school, and Wren realizes that somehow, inexplicably, he can sense the powers that lie within her—and that he knows what she has done. And now Gabriel wants to help make things right. But Wren alone has to undo what she has wrought—even if it means breaking her heart all over again.




Carry the Dog


Book Description

“Powered by insight and true wit.” —Meg Wolitzer, New York Times bestselling author of The Female Persuasion “I can’t remember the last time I was as completely bewitched by a fictional character as I was by Bea Seger . . . What a treat to view life through the eyes of this funny, smart, gutsy woman.” —Richard Russo, author of Empire Falls and Chances Are... Bea Seger has spent a lifetime running from her childhood. The daughter of a famous photographer, she and her brothers were the subjects of an explosive series of images in the 1960s known as the Marx Nudes. Disturbing and provocative, the photographs shadowed the family long past the public outcry and media attention. Now, decades later, both the Museum of Modern Art and Hollywood have come calling, eager to cash in on Bea’s mother’s notoriety. Twice divorced from but still entangled with aging rock star Gary Going, Bea lives in Manhattan with her borrowed dog, Dory, and sort-of sister, Echo. After years of avoiding her past, Bea must make a choice: let the world in—and be compensated for the trauma of her childhood—or leave it all locked away in a storage unit forever. Carry the Dog sweeps readers into Bea’s world as the little girl in the photographs and the woman in the mirror meet at the blurry intersection of memory and truth, vulnerability and resilience.

How to Raise the Dead Back to Life


Book Description

Do you aspire to be mightily used by God in the demonstration of unusual signs and wonders such as raising the dead? This Holy Ghost-breathed book practically demonstrates how the dead are raised and exhaustively examines the subject of raising the dead in depth. It practically demonstrates step by step how one can raise the dead back to life and also outlines with practical evidence the divine strategies which believers can use to bring the dead back to life. It brims with provocative insights that provide a unique and ground breaking entry into the phenomenon of raising the dead, which for ages have remained an implausible, inexplicable and unfathomable subject. It is jam-packed with divine insights that will take you through a journey out of the convictions of ordinary life of complacency and mediocrity to plunge into the greater depths of the miraculous. The theologically challenging, deeply provoking and incredibly inspiring, hard-to-get revelations encapsulated in this book are set to revolutionise the course of your life for ever. The depth and density of Throne Room revelations it contains requires the reader to make a conscientious effort to digest its morsels, hence it is dangerous to casual Christianity. This is such a provocative kind of book that immediately after you read it, you will feel an irresistibly strong edge to invade death infested territories such as hospitals, mortuaries, psychic prisons, rehabilitation centres and people's homes to raise the dead. It will cause you to explode in the demonstration of signs and wonders that will ruffle the feathers of those comfortable with the status quo and dazzle the minds of those who have pitched their tent in the valley of mediocrity and are sailing their boats through the shallow streams of spiritual understanding. It will launch you into an arena of divine exploits whereby you will raise the dead as if you are waking up people from their slumber.Presiding over a global network of apostolic and prophetic visions, in the capacity of the President of Christ Resurrection Movement (CRM), the Director of Global School of Resurrection (GSR), Senior Pastor of Resurrection Embassy (RE), the founder of Resurrection TV (The Dead-Raising Channel) and the pioneer of the renowned Global School of Signs and Wonders (GSSW), Apostle Frequency Revelator unpacks a plethora of rare but provocative revelations that the dead are raised in this Kairos moment as God is launching men and women into deeper and unexplored territories of the Glory Realm. This book is a wake-up call for radical revivalists and revolutionaries to rise up on this epic transition and take their rightful place on earth by curtailing the mass rampage instigated by the devil through alarming deaths and eradicating the syndrome of death that has gripped the masses for ages. On that note, congratulations for joining the bandwagon of raising the dead and welcome to the world whereby it's naturally supernatural to raise the dead!




The Good Portion - Scripture


Book Description

The Bible speaks about itself in evocative language: a light to the path, a balm to the flesh, sweeter than honey. It is more than a formula - it is the heartbeat of a Christian. This first title in a new ten-part women's series on doctrine addresses the nature of the Scriptures as God's revelation and discusses the characteristics of the Bible.




The Book of Dead Philosophers


Book Description

Diogenes died by holding his breath. Plato allegedly died of a lice infestation. Diderot choked to death on an apricot. Nietzsche made a long, soft-brained and dribbling descent into oblivion after kissing a horse in Turin. From the self-mocking haikus of Zen masters on their deathbeds to the last words (gasps) of modern-day sages, The Book of Dead Philosophers chronicles the deaths of almost 200 philosophers-tales of weirdness, madness, suicide, murder, pathos and bad luck. In this elegant and amusing book, Simon Critchley argues that the question of what constitutes a 'good death' has been the central preoccupation of philosophy since ancient times. As he brilliantly demonstrates, looking at what the great thinkers have said about death inspires a life-affirming enquiry into the meaning and possibility of human happiness. In learning how to die, we learn how to live.




Life Eternal


Book Description

Just when Renée has almost given up hope, she learns of the Nine Sisters—brilliant scholars who, according to legend, found a way to cheat death. She can’t shake the feeling that they are somehow connected to her dreams, strange visions that hint at a discovery so powerful, and so dangerous, that some will stop at nothing to protect it. Renée thought she knew the truth about life and death. But there is a secret woven through history that holds the only hope for Dante and Renée. Unless they find answers soon, their time together is doomed to be cut short....




Becoming Starlight


Book Description

Revised and Updated The Shared Death Experience (SDE). Most people know of the Near Death Experience (NDE), but very few have heard of the SDE. The SDE is similar to the NDE except that it occurs not to the person who is dying, but to a loved one who is physically well. That person could be sitting right next to their loved one, sitting across the room, or even across the globe unaware of the impending death of someone they love. Location or activity level is of no consequence to the SDE. That person is "invited along" to witness the aftermath of physical death. The invitation extended has no RSVP--the person accompanying the dying individual can neither accept nor refuse--they are just "taken" or "given" the experience by powers outside of their control. Becoming Starlight is one of those stories. Deeply embedded in Starlight is an ongoing war with death, faith and hope-- and with God--a war most of us have experienced or will experience in our lifetimes. Becoming Starlight is a story that has been written, in one way or another, since the beginning of time. The war between life and death--who lives and who dies is at the heart of this deeply personal experience. It's a life-and-death struggle with spiritual darkness and loss of faith. It is a story not unlike the stories of anyone who has loved and lost, grieved and sorrowed, felt anguish and rage, fallen from Grace and questioned the very existence of God. The specifics are different, but the humanity splattered on every page is the stuff of life. Some find redemption more easily than I. It took a complete fall from grace for me to awaken from the darkness that had found its way into my life, and an unexpected encounter - a SDE -- to bring me into the very arms of a compassionate God. "Becoming Starlight" is the "Lifting of the Veil" that led to a peek into foreverness.
