  No matter where we are—on a walk in the woods, in a sacred building, or in a dusty refugee camp—signs of love abound. There is no secret formula to experiencing the sacred in our lives, it just takes practice and practicality. 
  You’re invited to search this path with entrepreneur Becca Stevens as she explores what it means to be practically divine. Woven throughout the narrative are poetry and rants, as well as ruminations on her mother’s wit, wisdom, and passion. 
  In Practically Divine, Becca shares how to live a life that’s practically divine by:Redefining old lies and stories, to learn from the pastAppreciating the gifts that come from imperfections or traumaUsing creativity to spark new revolutionsAccepting the chaos of the unknown before us with courageSharing in a feast of love, knowing there’s enough mercy and forgiveness 
  Embracing the practically divine compels us to do something, anything, to share in the feast of love together. When we start from wherever we are, we can recognize the potential for humor, wonder, and freedom.

  The Western Han Dynasty: A History of China, PART TWO plunges into an empire driven by ambition, war, and power struggles. At its center was Emperor Wu of Han, a ruler obsessed with dominance. He expanded China's borders and strengthened its might—but every victory came with a price. Battles raged not only on the frontiers but within the palace, where conspiracies and betrayals shaped the court. 
  To defeat the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu turned to two remarkable generals: Wei Qing, a former servant who became a master strategist, and his nephew Huo Qubing, a brilliant young warrior whose daring campaigns brought sweeping victories. At court, Empress Wei Zifu—once a singer—rose to power alongside her brother’s success, only to face the ruthless politics that threatened even the most powerful. 
  Others shaped the era in shadowed ways. Zhang Tang, the emperor’s feared enforcer, ruled through terror. Historian Sima Qian risked all to record the truth. Meanwhile, the Witchcraft Calamity unleashed a storm of paranoia, leading to purges that destroyed allies and enemies alike. 
  As Emperor Wu’s reign waned, cracks in the empire deepened. His successor, Liu He, ruled for only 27 days. The once-mighty Huo family fell to court intrigue. Then, Emperor Xuan of Han—a commoner by birth—rose to power, offering hope of renewal. But could he repair an empire fractured by war and ambition, or had the Han already passed its peak?

  Mindless War

  This audiobook is an update to Reality Prism: A Raven Thriller, released by Flamingo Audiobooks. The focus of our book is to describe and explain the myriad of attacks on our Western Culture in general and the United States as the key target and last bastion of freedom. Mind War is the use of sophisticated deception to deceive an enemy, and to plant false images in his mind to allow advantage. It is a military tactic.Mindless War is a phrase that we’ve coined to describe the methods and controls being used destructively by Globalists, the New World Order, China, the Radical Left, and others, to replace the “old order” of countries, independent nation states, with a world of total control by independent, unaccountable elites. Groups like the World Economic Forum and the UN have been working on this for decades.Yes, this is the “Great Reset.” The goals are documented in UN Agenda 2030, and other such documents. That is the subject of our book Reality Prism. The goal of Mind War is to instill fear in a society! “Fear is the Mind Killer.” It drives the loss of judgment. False reality can be used to cause insane, self-destructive behavior.In the past, genocides and tyranny came from force. As Mao demonstrated, “From the barrel of a gun.” Or, as Hitler showed, from military conquest and death camps. Mind War is a much more effective tactic.Recent events show its success in getting Americans to surrender our notions of exceptionalism and all men (and women) of being equal. Our God-Given Freedoms—from the right to assemble, free speech, fair trials, innocent until proven guilty, honest elections, freedom of worship, the rule of law, and, of course, at the end, the right to bear arms—are all slipping away.

  Chain of Command - The Road from...

  Since September 11, 2001, Seymour M. Hersh has riveted readers -- and outraged the Bush Administration -- with his stories in The New Yorker magazine, including his breakthrough pieces on the Abu Gharaib prison scandal. Now, in Chain of Command, he brings together this reporting, along with new revelations, to answer the critical question of the last three years: how did America get from the clear morning when hijacked airplanes crashed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon to a divisive and dirty war in Iraq? 
  Hersh established himself at the forefront of investigative journalism thirty-five years ago when he broke the news of the massacre in My Lai, Vietnam, for which he won a Pulitzer Prize. Ever since, he's challenged America's power elite by publishing the stories that others can't or won't tell. 
  In Chain of Command, Hersh takes an unflinching look behind the public story of President Bush's ""war on terror"" and into the lies and obsessions that led America into Iraq. With an introduction by The New Yorker's editor, David Remnick, Chain of Command is a devastating portrait of an Administration blinded by ideology and of a President whose decisions have made the world a more dangerous place for America.
