Sinopse

- This edition is unique;- The translation is completely original and was carried out for the Ale. Mar. SAS;- All rights reserved.The First Men in the Moon is a book by H. G. Wells, first published in 1901. This early science fiction novel follows the journey of two unlikely companions—an eccentric scientist named Mr. Cavor and the pragmatic businessman Bedford—as they travel to the Moon using a revolutionary anti-gravity substance called Cavorite. Once there, they discover a complex subterranean civilization of insect-like beings known as Selenites, revealing a lunar world both alien and eerily reflective of human society. Wells’s novel was a bold imaginative leap for its time, offering readers a speculative look at space travel decades before it became scientifically plausible. It reflects the anxieties and ambitions of the early 20th century, including concerns about imperialism, industrialization, and the limits of human understanding. The book also contributed to shaping the genre of science fiction, influencing countless later works exploring extraterrestrial life, the ethics of exploration, and the clash of civilizations.

    In this volume our protagonists are the people we look to for help and certainty when we are in distress and pain.  Our authors place these characters in stories that are as relevant to our thoughts today as when they were first published.

    A riveting and raw story of how one woman overcame alcoholism and mental illness and broke free from the genetic blueprint of addiction and abuse that demonized her family for generations. She sets you in a front-row seat as she shares her life story and experiences, which show the strength, determination and courage of how she no longer wanted to continue with this way of life, and how she would do whatever it took to protect her children from being exposed to a life of addiction that is so normalized and influenced within society. Shannan teaches about addiction and the consequences of speaking her truth. She fights past fear, loneliness and judgement to end the inner pain that has haunted her for years, and finds inner peace. Along her path she realizes how life is a spiritual journey and there is a lesson to be learned with every experience, personal encounter and relationship. Most importantly, the lesson is how you have a relationship with yourself, that you have the power to change everything, and it all comes from within.

    George Muller stared at the beggar girl. She was no older than five and was piggybacking her little brother. Her mother had died in the cholera epidemic sweeping England. Her father had never returned from the mines. Standing in the muddy street, this little girl gave a face to Bristol's countless orphans. With scarcely enough food or money for his own family, George Muller opened his heart and home. Sustained by God's provision, the Muller house "Breakfast Club" of thirty orphans grew to five large houses that ultimately over ten thousand children would call home. George Muller trusted God with a depth rarely seen. His faith and generosity set a standard for Christians of all generations.
