Redemption - Governed by Independence

Maison d'édition: Defiance Press and Publishing

Synopsis

In the harsh confines of a Texas prison, Bodhi—a former EMT convicted of manslaughter—has just days remaining on his sentence when violence erupts around him. After his cellmate is brutally attacked, Bodhi finds himself caught in a deadly power struggle between prison gangs, corrupt guards, and something far more sinister: a satanic cult calling themselves Las Hermanas Del Muerte.
 
When Bodhi's new cellmate, an Irish priest named Caedmon Murphy, is stabbed while defending him, Bodhi is forced to confront not only the physical threats surrounding him but also his own spiritual emptiness. As supernatural forces manifest within the prison walls, Bodhi discovers he's been chosen for a purpose beyond mere survival.
 
Released into a world where his enemies still hunt him, Bodhi joins forces with a motorcycle club offering him sanctuary. But the cult's reach extends beyond prison walls, and soon he's fighting not just for his own redemption but to save innocent lives from darkness.
 
With time running out and enemies closing in, Bodhi must decide if he's willing to embrace a calling that demands everything of him—including faith in a God he's never believed in. His journey from guilt to redemption becomes a brutal battle for his soul and the souls of those he's sworn to protect.

Psychogeography

Merlin Coverley

Psychogeography. In recent years this term has been used to illustrate a bewildering array of ideas from ley lines and the occult, to urban walking and political radicalism. But where does it come from and what exactly does it mean? 
 
This book examines the origins of psychogeography in the Paris of the 1950s, exploring the theoretical background and its political application in the work of Guy Debord and the Situationists. Psychogeography continues to find retrospective validation in much earlier traditions, from the visionary writing of William Blake and Thomas De Quincey to the rise of the flâneur and the avant-garde experimentatin of the Surrealists. These precursors to psychogeography are discussed here alongside their modern counterparts, for today these ideas hold greater currency than ever through the popularity of writers and filmmakers such as Iain Sinclair, Will Self and Patrick Keiller. 
 
From the urban wanderer to the armchair traveller, psychogeography provides us with new ways of experiencing our environment, transforming the familiar streets of our everyday experience into something new and unexpected. Merlin Coverley conducts the reader through this process, providing an explanation of the terms involved and an analysis of the key figures and their works. 
 
'This little book does exactly what an introduction should; it examines, explains, and whets the appetite' TELEGRAPH  
 
'An excellent overview of a tradition that can be tricky to pin down and a great portal for loads of further reading' HUGH MARWOOD 
 
'This succinct book is a definite first port of call for anyone interested in this most esoteric of theories. A portmanteau of information, a pin-pointing of Psychogeography's literary impact and standing, and a stimulating read' 3:AM MAGAZINE

Find the courage and determination to keep fighting even when life's challenges are heavy and daunting.
When life turns up the heat and everything inside of you wants to give up, will you face the flames? Will you keep the faith? Will you keep fighting until God does the miraculous?
Pastor Shawn Johnson found himself asking these questions after he received a devastating diagnosis that made him want to give up on everything, including his faith and his future. The turning point for Shawn was a phone call from a friend and UFC fighting coach who told him that this situation was not going to steal his joy, take away his peace, or change his calling. Instead, he said, “You're going to kiss this fire and walk away whistling.”
The phrase “kiss the fire” doesn't imply that it won't get hot from time to time. It's not saying there won't be hard days.

Kiss the Fire will inspire you to trust that God is present and to tap into that inner fighter spirit. In Kiss the Fire Shawn shares:The three reasons why you should keep fighting and refuse to give upSeven strategies you need in order to kiss the fire and walk away whistlingHow to experience the amazing plans God has for you, even when you have no idea what those might be
