  "Wicca Demystified: Sorcery and Sacredness: Delving into the Mysteries and Rituals of Wiccan Tradition," provides an overview of the ancient, dynamic spiritual practice of Wicca. This book elucidates the salient concepts, rituals, and magical practices associated with Wicca; actually, for beginners, it is one of the most informative Wicca books available. 
  Simultaneously, it attempts to demystify and reveal the great customs and sacred knowledge that form the basis of contemporary Wicca. The book looks into the historical foundations of Wicca, making a point that places much emphasis on the contemporary rebirth of witchcraft and links its associative connections to antiquated Pagan customs.  
  This work proposes the basic tenets of Wicca for readers: the Wiccan Rede, the worth of nature, the functions of the God and Goddess, and the thought of the Threefold Law. A clear overview of the Wheel of the Year helps clarify the meaning of Sabbats and Esbats, whereas in-depth sections on Wiccan tools, symbols, and rituals have allowed the reader to create their own magical practices and sacred locations. 
  "Wicca Demystified" goes further than just simple basics: it deals with more sophisticated matters like contacting deities and so forth, the techniques of spell crafting, and communication on the subject of spirit guidance. It is a spiritual guide for anybody wishing to know and accept the sacredness of the Wiccan way; it will help find just the right balance between theory and practice. 
  With this book, you will be equipped with the knowledge to navigate the mysteries of Wicca successfully, whether your goals are personal development, empowerment, or a closer connection with the spirits.

  A practical tool for women who are called to leadership roles in any area of life, Entrusted to Lead offers biblical insight and real-life encouragement for how to navigate their leadership journey.  In Entrusted to Lead, Pastor Donna Pisani draws on over four decades of experience to offer a biblical perspective of women in leadership that considers their role an entrusted assignment rather than just an entitled position. Women who wrestle with God’s call to lead, or who don’t have anyone supporting their call, will discover how to:  Embrace their God-given, unique leadership gifts  Become alert to the internal lies that make them hesitant to pursue their calling  Answer Jesus’ mandate to women to “go tell”—even when no one seems to be listening  Understand how Paul empowered both genders to lead and serve together  Lean into Jesus’ strength when facing leadership challenges  Generations of confusion keep women from answering God’s call to lead, depriving God’s kingdom of crucial gifts and abilities. Entrusted to Lead shows women what it looks like to lead with confidence in the workplace and in ministry—and why Jesus always wanted women to have a seat at the table.  Features extensive bonus content exclusive to the audiobook.

  When you need to know how to do something, a manual is the best place to start. 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus might be called "the Teacher's Manual," because so much of what they contain is about the kind of teaching that Christian leaders should--and shouldn't--be giving. Just as Timothy and Titus needed help to lead their young churches well in the midst of powerful cultural forces, we need guidance for correct leading and living in our own context. These studies on Paul's letters point us in the right direction.
  This guide by Tom Wright can be used on its own or alongside his New Testament for Everyone commentary on 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus. It is designed to help you understand Scripture in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you or a group more deeply into God's Word. Discover how you can participate more fully in God's kingdom.

  Preparing for War - The...

  The insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, was not a blip or an aberration. It was the logical outcome of years of a White evangelical subculture's preparation for war. Religion scholar and former insider Bradley Onishi maps the origins of White Christian nationalism and traces its offshoots in Preparing for War. 
   
   
   
  Combining his own experiences in the youth groups and prayer meetings of the 1990s with an immersive look at the steady blending of White grievance politics with evangelicalism, Onishi crafts an engrossing account of the years-long campaign of White Christian nationalism that led to January 6. How did the rise of what Onishi calls the New Religious Right, between 1960 and 2015, give birth to violent White Christian nationalism during the Trump presidency and beyond? What propelled some of the most conservative religious communities in the country—communities of which Onishi was once a part—to ignite a cold civil war? 
   
   
   
  Through chapters on White supremacy and segregationist theologies, conspiracy theories, the Christian-school movement, purity culture, and the right-wing media ecosystem, Onishi pulls back the curtain on a subculture that birthed a movement and has taken a dangerous turn.
