  While in Istanbul, Graham learns the graduate student who was with him at the monastery library is missing. His last known location: one of the dozen mountains that may be the biblical Sinai. A forbidden mountain in a forbidden country. Now Graham has to find a way to rescue him without being detected. And in the process he may recover a history with explosive political implications.

  Few practices stand out as uniquely Christian as the Lord's Supper. Instituted by Jesus on the night of His betrayal, written about in the New Testament, and observed by Christians for the past two millennia, this religious meal is a significant part of what it means to be Christian. And yet, over the past 2,000 years, the way the Lord's Supper is observed has changed and varied greatly. The Lord's Supper: Unity in One Loaf and One Cup calls us to consider the simple Biblical pattern and the rich meaning Jesus ascribed to the memorial meal of His followers.

  The Rapture, a Christian term, is allegory for a natural cyclic evolutionary process that materializes internally deep in the Mind when corruption and lawlessness overtake the societal norm and decay sets in. This “new Man” (the developing Mental structure) begins replacing the outer world authorities at all levels of society, revealing a process of “God’s Eternal Kingdom” descending into the World, creating a “Heavenly Government on Earth”. Such a restoral returns all nations to the principles of religion: truth, justice, liberty and common sense, whereupon the world flourishes in the new age. This is happening now, it began in April 2020 at start of the so-called “Pandemic” lockdown, whereupon society became ripe for the flourishing of internal relationships. This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarious where harmony and understanding come into form, its first fruits having been the 1960s civil-rights and anti-war peace and love movements.CHAPTER BEGINNINGSIntroductionThe Rapture, a Christian term describing a key biblical prophesy of the New Testament Bible, is a cyclic event that repeatedly happens when there is a falling away from religion, that is, a forgetting of the internal knowledge with reliance shifting to a physical world mindset where individual desire is paramount over collective Mind.1 — New Testament ProphesyThe first mention of what we call the Rapture in the New Testament Bible is in Matthew 24, purportedly a warning from Jesus of a great calamity about to fall upon the people …2 — Incident at the ‘Med’In about 1977, reading and digesting the Seth Material, I began having dreams of my father who was still physically in body and would be for another decade, that he was taking me high up on a mountain and I interpreted this as he was giving me spiritual guidance. This confused me because my dad was a rather ordinary practical man who didn’t believe anything that he couldn’t see…

  When we lose someone we love, we are forever changed. When our person dies, our grief needs room. 
   
   
   
  Leanne Friesen thought she knew a lot about bereavement. She had studied it in school and preached at memorial services. But only when her own sister died from cancer did she learn, in her very bones, what grieving people don't need—and what they do. In Grieving Room, Friesen writes with vulnerability, wisdom, and somehow even wit about the stark and sacred lessons learned at deathbeds and funerals. When someone dies, we need room for imperfect goodbyes, she writes, and room for a changing faith. We need room for regret and room to rage at the world. Room for hard holidays and room in our schedules. We need room for redemption and room for resurrection—and we also need room to never "get over it." 
   
   
   
  In this poignant account of a sister's mourning and a pastor's journey, Friesen pushes back against a world that wants to minimize our sorrow and avoid our despair. She helps those of us walking with the grieving figure out what to say and what not to say, and she offers practical ways to create ample space for every emotion and experience. Reflection questions, practices, and prayers at the end of the book offer guidance and ideas for individuals and groups.
