  Leaving the Mormon ChurchPrepare to embark on a remarkable journey. As my story unfolds, it was 2015 – I was sitting at my computer, planning my gospel doctrine class. I stood up to get something, and I instantly transcended into a spiritual encounter, an overwhelming deep-seated sensation of instant knowledge that went down to my cells. When I opened my eyes from this Experience, I saw the world differently. I walked slowly into my bedroom and took my garments off. I’ve never gone back to the Mormon Church or any church, since. In this book, I share: •	How I learned to communicate and commune straight to my Higher Power instead of going through men to get to heavenly expansion. You will find this book to be very God-centered.•	For those who have suffered judgment and pain from behaving or thinking contrary to the teachings in the church and are trying to find their way, this book is for you.•	Although I have spent a lifetime within the Mormon doctrine, I do not claim to be a scriptorian or authority on religious or spiritual enlightenment. •	I kept this sacred Experience quiet for some time and am now sharing it in hopes it may help those who are at a crossroads with their faith. Moreover, my journey took an unexpected turn when I faced a stage four cancer diagnosis. This profound moment became an opportunity to dig deeper, to reaffirm and embrace my beliefs and authentic self in the face of a new reality.At its core, this book is about love. With an open heart, I invite you to join me on this transformative adventure as I share my story with you and inspire your own exploration of love, spirituality, and the sacred mysteries that shape your lives.

  Loose of Earth - A Memoir

  Kathleen Dorothy Blackburn

  Kathleen Dorothy Blackburn was the oldest of five children, a twelve-year-old from Lubbock, Texas, whose evangelical family eschewed public education for homeschooling, and wove improbable scientific theories into literal interpretations of the Bible. Then her father, a former air force pilot, was diagnosed with cancer at the age of thirty-eight, and, "it was like throwing gasoline on the Holy Spirit." Stirred by her mother, the family committed to an extreme diet and sought deliverance from equally extreme sources: a traveling tent preacher, a Malaysian holy man, a local faith-healer who led services called "Miracles on 34th Street." 
   
   
   
  What they didn't know was that their lives were entangled with a larger, less visible environmental catastrophe. Firefighting foams containing carcinogenic compounds had contaminated the drinking water of every military site where her father worked. Commonly referred to as "forever chemicals," the presence of PFAS in West Texas besieged a landscape already burdened with vanishing water, taking up residence in wells and in the bloodstreams of people who lived there. An arresting portrait of the pernicious creep of decline, and a powerful cry for environmental justice, Loose of Earth captures the desperate futility and unbending religious faith that devastated a family, leaving them waiting for a miracle that would never come.

  A special assignment. The outcome is a matter of life or death. 
    
  Who will accept the challenge before time runs out? 
    
  Katherine Kincaid, a church mother from Christ Is For All, has been fervently petitioning Jesus to return and rescue His saints from this wicked world. 
    
  The Lord gives her a list of unknown individuals urgently needing deliverance. The intercessors and prayer warriors are charged with leading them to Christ. Once every soul is accounted for, Jesus will come to redeem His saints, and judgment will begin on the earth. 
    
  The caveat to God’s edict is that the timer has been set, and if the intercessors fail to witness to them, their souls could be lost forever. 
    
  God thunders, “Get set, get ready, GO!!!!!”

  Theology can be intimidating. Perhaps questions like these have kept you from engaging with it: “What is theology?” “Who does theology?” “What happens if I get something wrong?”  Theology can be intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be. Whether conversations about theology have felt out of reach, over your head, or irrelevant, consider this book an invitation to the dialogue.  The goal of theology is knowing and loving God well. This is a lifelong endeavor, a never-ending pursuit, not for the sake of knowledge, but for an ever-deepening relationship with God Himself. Authors Jen Wilkin and J. T. English invite you to become not merely a consumer of theology, but a contributor to the conversation, and to grow in faithfulness to the Great Commission’s call to make disciples.  You are a theologian.  You Are a Theologian addresses theological questions such as:  Who is God? The Doctrine of the Trinity  What is God like? The Attributes of God  What is the Bible? The Doctrine of Scripture  Who are we? The Doctrine of Humanity  What went wrong? The Doctrine of Sin  What has God done? The Doctrines of Christology, Atonement, and Justification  To whom do we belong? The Doctrine of the Church  How does the story end? The Doctrine of Last Things

  Her invention could save thousands of lives…if she can survive long enough to share it.  
  Jacqui’s research could lead to a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, and she’s determined to ensure the technology goes to the company with the best shot at creating life-saving products, not just the highest bidder.

Jacqui goes into hiding, planning to lie low until she can find a buyer who lives up to her expectations.  
  Reid’s life is all about protecting his daughter, but when she leaves for a month to visit her mother, he finds himself at loose ends. The pretty new manager at the ice cream shop seems like a good diversion, but he soon realizes there’s more to Jacqui than doling out scoops of rocky road. When he senses danger, he’s tempted to step away—he won’t allow any threat to come near his daughter—but how can he turn his back on a woman in danger, one he’s coming to care for?  
  Jacqui’s former partner is closing in and getting more desperate by the day. He’ll stop at nothing to get the payout he feels he deserves.  
  Join Jacqui and Reid as they navigate this pulse-pounding, faith-filled adventure into the high-stakes world of medical research, innovation, and greed.

  A priest, a scientist, and a psychologist walk into a bar... 
  This isn't the beginning of a joke. It's the start of a long-overdue conversation about how mainstream religion has handed down a God that only a sadomasochist could love. How are we supposed to worship a deity who wantonly slaughters innocents to assuage His own bloodthirsty rage? Thank the loving God revealed in the pages of Setting God Free that Seán ÓLaoire has finally unpacked the horror show known as "the difficult passages” of the Bible, giving readers access to a cosmology built not on canonical scripture alone, but also on science, spirituality, and personal experience. And as for the God we humans have created in our own image? His day in court has finally come.
