  “In Casting Lots, Elisheva Nesher does not just present the system of using the aleph-beit to cast lots for spiritual guidance and wisdom, she also shows the range of divine beings and spiritual practices in ancient Canaan/Israel, as well as the modern polytheist revival. There is a warmth and generosity here towards all sides that we all can learn from.” —Rachel Pollack, author of Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom and A Walk Through the Forest of Souls   Lots are an ancient Hebrew form of divination and magic that may also be used for healing, blessing, cursing, meditation, and spiritual interaction. A set of lots contains twenty-two small discs, each one bearing one of the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In a manner similar to runes, these lots are then cast and interpreted. Though lots were once so common that explanations of how to cast them were unnecessary, over the centuries their methods and uses fell into obscurity.   In this practical guide, author and seer Elisheva Nesher has reconstructed the ancient art of lot casting for modern times. Her book contains explanations for each of the twenty-two lots and explores their meanings, both mystical and mundane. It also includes detailed instructions on how to cast, as well as craft your own set of lots. In addition to divination, Casting Lots explores the magical gifts of the lots as well as how to use them to contact and interact with the Hebrew spirits, such as Asherah. A brief guide is included for those unfamiliar with these spirits.  Casting Lots is a complete instruction manual for mastering the art of lot casting.

  The veil between the worlds has been torn, and terrible powers are coming through... 
  A magician has caused a rift in the fabric of the universe, and platonic ideals are now roaming the English countryside, taking the form of giant animals and generally wreaking havoc on the small town of Smetham. While others flee, a young student named Anthony Durrant realizes that it is up to him to face the monstrous powers before they destroy the world. 
  The Place of the Lion is one of Charles Williams' most beloved novels. C.S. Lewis called reading it "one of the major literary events of my life". Along with Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Williams was member of the Inklings, an informal group of writers in Oxford, England, who changed the world with their mythopoetic vision.

  The Book of Enoch - Apocryphal...

  Enoch existed prior to the events surrounding the Great Flood and was son of Jared, father of the famously long-lived Methuselah and grandfather of Noah. 
  The Book of Enoch is considered a canonical Apocrypha and is said to have been written by Enoch himself, although this is disputed by some and many believe it was begun in the second century BC. The only thing that is known for certain is that fragments of the book date back to the 2nd century BC and that it was rediscovered as part of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the 1940’s and 1950’s. 
  The Book of Enoch: Apocryphal Book of Giants Fallen Angels, Watchers & Nephilim examines the writings of Enoch and the unique material on the origins of demons and Nephilim that he wrote about. It studies why some angels fell from heaven, why the Genesis flood was morally necessary and looks deeply into the prophetic exposition of the thousand-year reign of the Messiah. 
  Perfect for students of biblical times but also written for general readership and those who have a passing interest in the book’s history and place within Christian thinking, The Book of Enoch makes complex texts more generally accessible to the average reader.

  The Good Steward, by Tim Russell and Roy Russell is a transformative guide inviting readers to rethink wealth as a means to worship, rather than as personal gain. With a fresh take on Biblical stewardship, it unveils the true role of money: a resource God entrusts to us for our intentional, purposeful management. Through relatable stories and timeless biblical wisdom, the authors reveal the “worship problem” that often places money above God. They challenge readers to reshape their financial lives around five priorities: giving, saving, responsible spending, generosity, and enjoyment in God’s blessings. The Good Steward is a roadmap to fulfillment and peace. By placing faith at the center of financial decisions, we build a legacy of purpose and devotion.
