Book excerpt: The Book of Thorns is the first book in The Tree of Life series following Dorian, an exiled legionnaire, and Allyse, a lady in the Airthan court who has a taste for war, as a mysterious force discovers the existence of the Tree of Life. A chain of events ensues that will force the characters to decide whether to defend or destroy the tree. Thorns is the beginning of their journey through Airtha and the surrounding countries, sending the two in a descent into the darkness of their world and themselves, and must overcome their own demons to save the Tree of Life, or see the world to oblivion. Interweaving plots of tragedy and betrayal, love and hate, truth and lies, fear and love, leave the fate of all life in the hands of a few as they unknowingly head down the path that will place their greatest fears and desires in front of them. Though the tree is beautiful, it still has thorns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2 Corinthians 12: 7 Paul makes the extraordinary admission that he was given a 'thorn in the flesh'. Although we can never be sure what that torment was, many of us will know what it feels like to experience a painful problem which does not seem to go away. In this book R. T. Kendall explains what a thorn in the flesh is, why we have it, and what we should understand by it. Looking with compassion at the kinds of acute situation in which we may find ourselves - an unhappy marriage, difficult working conditions, loneliness, sexual misgivings or chronic illness, for example - he shows how the grace of God is sufficient whatever our thorn, and how it can lead us into unimaginable intimacy with Jesus.

Book excerpt: Lessons from the Thorns is based on the true story of a young girl's unimaginable journey through the painful experiences (thorns) of the dreadful realities of life. It is a journey that chronicles the fight for mental health and wellness; the search for her voice and lost soul. It is the story of a Savior; a Hero was paid the highest price to redeem her right to be free, and to be loved. Lessons from the Thorns is a journey that will guide the reader to the remedy for the formidable ailments that continues to plague society. Nothing changes in the silence of apathy. The nation continues to implode because of its defiant autonomy that has turned its back on the One in whom it is supposed to trust: The God of our founding fathers. This work is the result of men and woman who cared enough to serve their fellow man with courage and compassion that gives a love that heals the irreparable wounds. The healing Love of God. You may find your own secrets hiding here, and the courage to find your voice, take back your life, and begin to heal through the power of the risen Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature of late ancient Christianity is rich both in saints who lead lives of almost Edenic health and in saints who court and endure horrifying diseases. In such narratives, health and illness might signify the sanctity of the ascetic, or invite consideration of a broader theology of illness. In Thorns in the Flesh, Andrew Crislip draws on a wide range of texts from the fourth through sixth centuries that reflect persistent and contentious attempts to make sense of the illness of the ostensibly holy. These sources include Lives of Antony, Paul, Pachomius, and others; theological treatises by Basil of Caesarea and Evagrius of Pontus; and collections of correspondence from the period such as the Letters of Barsanuphius and John. Through close readings of these texts, Crislip shows how late ancient Christians complicated and critiqued hagiographical commonplaces and radically reinterpreted illness as a valuable mode for spiritual and ascetic practice. Illness need not point to sin or failure, he demonstrates, but might serve in itself as a potent form of spiritual practice that surpasses even the most strenuous of ascetic labors and opens up the sufferer to a more direct knowledge of the self and the divine. Crislip provides a fresh and nuanced look at the contentious and dynamic theology of illness that emerged in and around the ascetic and monastic cultures of the later Roman world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a landscape at once the brutal American South as it is the brutal mind, Boy with Thorn interrogates the genesis of all poetic creation—the imagination itself, questioning what role it plays in both our fascinations with and repulsion from a national history of racial and sexual violence. The personal and political crash into one language here, gothic as it is supple, meditating on visual art and myth, to desire, the practice of lynching and Hurricane Katrina. Always at its center, though, is the poet himself—confessing a double song of pleasure and inevitable pain.
