  Goodness of God The: The Eternal...

  Surprisingly, I found God through some bad things when I was little. He knew what my battles would be and that I’d need an unshakeable faith, so He made Himself known to me when I was young. I don’t think I even understood the miracles, but I knew He was real, so I had two options - not serve a God I knew was real or serve Him faithfully. 
  God gets all the glory. I couldn’t do this on my own. Every day I walked through the fire, I did it not by my own might. God made a path through the wilderness. There’s nothing I could accomplish without God. It’s not my legacy; it’s His. I’m not the main character; just a puzzle piece in the bigger picture - a life willing to be laid down. But I couldn’t keep the goodness of God to myself. In the end, I hope you find Him as you read my story. I hope you see His goodness through the darkness. That we may know our God, and see Him, and the only thing I strive for is to know Him and make Him known. 
  Only through faith could I forgive and see that those who contributed to my trauma were experiencing their own. They were victims too. That’s when I decided I wasn’t going to be a victim, but a survivor. That journey started with forgiveness. 
  Maybe the magic is just the sharing of faith and Jesus. He trusted us with our testimony because He knew we would share His faithfulness! We need to love and forgive as freely as Jesus has loved and forgiven us! 
  “‘And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.’” Ezekiel 36:26-27 
  God doesn’t just change some parts of you; He makes you entirely new! He gives you a new heart that is after Him. He transforms you. He puts His very own Spirit within you, empowering you to live a righteous and holy life. By His Spirit, you are equipped to succeed and become victorious in every area of your

  Arthur Conan Doyle - Six of the...

  Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
   
  Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
   
  In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
   
  These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.

  Attack on Pearl Harbor: America...

  On December 7th 1941 as World War II raged, the focus of attention was snatched from the battlefields of Europe and diverted to the smoke and flames rising from the American Naval Base in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor. The Empire of the Rising Sun had finally struck, piercing the heart of the US navy in a bid to ensure that their plans for an Asian Empire, every bit as ambitious as Adolf Hitler’s Thousand Year Reich, were not threatened. 
   
  But as the injured were rushed to safety and America reeled from the shock of the Japanese attack, those battling against Hitler, most notably Winston Churchill and the people of Great Britain, were able to find some comfort in the tragedy, because America’s President, Franklin D Roosevelt, could now justify bringing the United States into the war. 
   
  The story of Pearl Harbor may have been told many times, but it’s nonetheless always fascinating and in this journal, we will have the opportunity to revisit the events of that monumental day as they unfolded, from the bombing of the USS Panay to the attack on Pearl itself, while discovering the reasons why the Japanese fleets travelled far across the ocean, to pick a fight with World War II’s sleeping giant.

  “Strength beyond the Shadows is a raw, hard-truth, light-shining-bright-into-some-dark-places story few have the courage to reveal and Seth is on an undeniable quest to change lives.”—NICK LAVERY, Green Beret, U.S. Army Special Forces, Founder / CEO, Precision Components LLC. 
  Seth Gehle's story is a testament to the courage and strength within each of us to overcome adversity and our personal traumas. For nearly sixteen years, Seth suffered unspeakable crimes and endured tragedy that no human should have to face. Growing up in a broken home filled with abuse and neglect, a young Seth left and found himself further down the path to hell. 
  In this painfully honest account, Seth describes the horrific trauma and sexual abuse he withstood as a child. Seth’s story is all too common. What makes him an anomaly is his willingness to recount his experiences, bringing understanding of not only what he endured but the devastating aftermath suffered by millions who are victims of childhood trauma. 
  Through an unrelenting will to survive, Seth fought for his life and discovered the power of the human spirit. His ability to articulate the darkest moments of his life as well as his courage to live beyond such horrendous suffering are found within the pages of Strength beyond the Shadows.
