  The Fractured Kingdom - Uniting...

  Modern Christianity is in the midst of a veritable schism along the fault lines of society's culture wars. Only if we understand the origins of this split can we find our way to unity. Though few may realize it today, Jesus's ministry unfolded in a crisis very similar to the one society is now battling. In fact, were it not for the truly catastrophic conditions in early first-century Galilee, his reimagining of the three quintessential virtues of the Torah—social justice; compassion toward one another; and an abiding love of God—would have likely failed to attract a wide following. 
   
   
   
  Brilliantly tracing Jesus's vision for the "Kingdom of God" from its origin up through modern times, Dr. Isbouts leads us to a possible antidote for the fiercely partisan moment in which we find ourselves: the Our Father. Then taking listeners on a historically exhilarating tour of the Lord's Prayer, The Fractured Kingdom shows us why the only doctrine Christians agree on might be our last hope for forging a more equal, compassionate, and loving society. What results is an undeniably essential work that addresses some of the most pressing issues now confronting communities of faith around the world.

  This book answers the question:  “Are we the only civilization in the universe who believes there is a God?” 
  In a few years, it could be the end of human beings on Earth. The warning signs are all around us today, but few of us have realized how our lives will be changing as we come closer and closer to the END! Some believe that God will save us.  Others have given up hope. 
  In Shockwave, time waves as conceived by the author and previously dismissed as theoretical abstraction— are starting to prove themselves by hitting the planet with more and more frequency and force.  Most readers will be amazed at the near future technology that is invented in this book by this author that may actually be accomplished in the coming years.  It's a great time to be alive, but it may be even greater in the not-so-far-off future. 
  With each shockwave of Time, events are altered and realities changed.  One reality brings the hero closer to the life he always dreamed about and the other reality brings him further away.  
  The ending is the biggest shock wave of all time because it puts humanity at the center of the universe and you don't want to miss it.

  Myths of India The: The History...

  Though it was one of the most advanced civilizations of its time and responsible for the most ancient prehistoric urban sites across the Indian subcontinent, the Indus Valley Civilization was forgotten for millennia, until 20th century archaeologists rediscovered and began excavations at Mohenjo-daro and Harappa. Although the civilization primarily flourished between approximately 3000 and 1500 BCE, these ancient Indians had longer lasting influences on the urbanization of the Indian subcontinent for centuries after, thanks to their monumental buildings and walls, enormous manmade platforms, innovative architectural techniques, and evidence that they engaged in trade over vast distances, with high-quality artifacts sent from the Indus Valley as far as Mesopotamia and even Africa.  
  	Of course, the Indus Valley Civilization and their successors, the Aryans, also influenced indigenous Indian religion and mythology. In the West, Hinduism is a religion that everyone has heard of but one that few non-practitioners truly understand. Today it is widely regarded as one of the world’s great religions and considered the indigenous religion of India, with practices and beliefs stretching back thousands of years.  
  	In reality, Hinduism as it is conceived of today is a conglomerate of a number of indigenous Indian religions. In fact, prior to the migration of Islam and the corporate invasion of the British, Hinduism may not have existed at all. Rather, a number of local religious traditions had very old belief systems dating back hundreds or thousands of years, depending on the tradition, and many worshiped gods that are no longer worshiped today. In essence, it was only through the non-indigenous populations in India, namely the Turks and later the British, who defined what Hinduism was.
