The wary politician submits to the subtle pressures from the President's scientific advisor. He will listen to the far-out plans of a decorated weather controller during the Vietnam war. Dr. Lively's condition for bringing an end to the drought in the Western States is to have an unprecedented Federal License to make rain. The primary purpose of the permit to stop the drought is to shield his secret plans to control the devastation of an object from outer space when it collides with the earth. For the first time in 65 million years the earth is at imminent risk of total annihilation. Can a timely plan be developed to contain the devastating effects of the asteroid after it collides with the earth? Considering his chances for reelection unless he begins an effort to relieve the drought, the senator weighs his options. After heated discussions he agrees that the renowned scientists who predicted this event for more than seven centuries must be taken seriously. It remains to be seen if the expert and his team of eminent scientists can deliver on the challenges they have accepted.
"To this day, having known a few such great people, I still think that Father Solanus was the saintliest person I ever knew." -- From the Foreword by Fr. Benedict J. Groeschel, C.F.R. Father Solanus Casey, a gentle, compassionate Capuchin priest from Wisconsin, was the son of Irish immigrants. Although he worked most of his life as a monastery doorkeeper, he was often heralded as a 20th-century saint. People flocked to Father Solanus. Those looking for cures from cancer, heart disease, and tuberculosis. Those seeking help for broken marriages, broken hearts, and broken lives. Those wanting to find spiritual health and renewal. He was remarkably low-key in his approach, but visitors continued to seek him out even after his poor health demanded a move to a small town in Indiana. In 1957, at the age of 86, Father Solanus died at exactly the hour he had started his first Mass, on the same day in July, fifty-three years earlier. Pope John Paul II declared him "venerable," the first official step toward sainthood. In showing others that a life-giving faith and a love of God can be both powerful and simple, Father Solanus is a source of encouragement and a model of virtue for the modern world.
“What does it matter where we go? Wherever we go, won’t we be serving God there?” Father Solanus Casey (1870–1957) — Wisconsin native, Capuchin friar, and miracle-worker — lived this motto throughout his life. By his gentle, cheerful example, he taught others to have that same trust in God. Wherever he was sent — whether to parishes in New York City or monasteries in Detroit and tiny Huntington, Indiana — Father Casey was widely sought after for his wise counsel, powerful prayers, and miraculous healings. Visitors flocked to the humble monastery doorkeeper, seeking physical cures, advice, and spiritual renewal. Thousands of mourners attended his funeral in July 1957, hailing him as a modern saint. Catherine M. Odell proves that Father Casey’s witness remains more important than ever. Featuring first-hand personal accounts and 16 pages of photos, Father Solanus Casey takes readers past the ordinary appearance of this self-effacing friar into his extraordinary holiness.

Christian metal has always defined itself in contrast to its non-Christian, secular counterpart, yet it stands out from nearly all other forms of contemporary Christian music through its unreserved use of metal's main musical, visual, and aesthetic traits. Christian metal is a rare example of a direct combination between evangelical Christianity and an aggressive and highly controversial form of popular music and its culture. Christian Metal: History, Ideology, Scene is the first full exploration of the phenomenon of Christian metal music, its history, main characteristics, development, diversification, and key ideological traits from its formative years in the early 1980s to the present day. Marcus Moberg situates it in a wider international evangelical cultural environment, accounts for its diffusion on a transnational scale, and explores what religious meanings and functions Christian metal holds for its own musicians and followers. Engaging with wider debates on religion, media and popular culture, Christian Metal: History, Ideology and Scene is a much-needed resource in the study of religion and popular music.
Enoch Arnold Bennett was an English writer. He is best known as a novelist, but he also worked in other fields such as the theatre, journalism, propaganda and films."Having wakened in the middle of the night, Anthony, for some reason which he could not explain, began to read the Bible. He was not by habit an ardent reader, and particularly not an ardent reader of the Bible; but he always kept a Bible on the table by his bedside, in case he might feel a desire to read it, and he never felt the desire. Now, almost before being aware of the fact, lo! he was reading the Bible,--the love-story of Amnon and Tamar."
