For those times when you had to stand alone... when you had to trust the blind path... when you were judged and rejected... when you knew something else was supporting you even when it felt like you were hanging out in the loneliest town on the map... "The Truth Always Rises" offers you torches of light for life's darker passages as reminders of your strength, power, and unlimited energy. In her twelfth book, Molly McCord shares inspiring reminders of your truth, light, and intentions as you amplify your power through periods of struggle. There is no sugarcoating here, or trying to diminish how hard life experiences can be, even as we move through them doing the best we can with what we have. Yet there is deep wisdom and profound grace in mentally, spiritually, and psychologically rising above our temporary circumstances and seeing the terrain with fresh eyes. With her trademark openness, humor, and relatability, Molly shares some of her own personal stories of struggle and hardship interspersed with brilliant insights of what is unfolding spiritually and energetically. Even in the dark, you can focus on glimmering torches of light to guide you along.
Opening up discussions of war, sexuality, personal angst, and national identity, The Sun also Rises symbolises modernism, both in theme and style. This volume contains critical essays on the novel by eminent Hemingway scholars.

We work hard at life. We try to get better jobs, better homes, better relationships, and even a better spirituality. We are like Jacob in the Old Testament. His name means "striver, schemer, supplanter, hustler." He could have been the poster boy for the American Dream.But author Craig Barnes says this is not the way we should be living our lives. We should not try to manipulate and hustle ourselves into a place of advantage with God, a position that has been ours all along. After all, God is the one who climbed down the ladder to be with us. Using true anecdotes from the men, women, and families of the churches he has served, Barnes invites hard-running, stressed-out, burned-out people to stop striving. Life is not something we grasp and clutch to us, but a gift God freely gives. Only when we open our hands can God fill them with the blessings he has been waiting to lavish upon us all along.
Decades ago, Stephen Hawking had predicted that an acceptable equation to a grand unified theory would arrive by the year 2020. He was right! Jesus is the Beam is an autobiography brimming with philosophical ideas from a supernatural journey with God and an unquenchable desire to know the fundamental truth about our origin. The origin of not just our own species, but to know the truth about the spark of life and the energy which sustains it. Gwynevere Lamb challenges all conventional theories of everything as she presents an intuitive pre-numerical formula to the four standard forces of energy and all life as we know it, re-illustrating time and space. She slices in half the nucleus of our reality with a nuclear knife without the need of an atom smasher! Finally a simple, sensible, and satisfactory equation to a grand unified field even a 2nd grader can understand! The author's journey continues in her 2nd installment, God is the Boom, as she dissects truth from fiction (in light of her grand unified equation) in all things (from scientific discoveries to human behaviors), giving new meaning to the theory of everything. The story climbs to an epic ending summing up both books on the summit of Mount Calvary as she explains the purpose of the cross of Jesus Christ in quantum mechanical terms. The author has a knack of explaining continuums of time and space as well as parental discipline. She makes math and science (to include particle physics) understandable to persons without any scientific background by painting pictures with her words as well as thrilling readers with adventurous real-life-stories. Gwynevere Lamb (using the poetry of math and science) stitches the fabric of time and space to earth, air, water, and fire and just about everything else. She explains how the “Fire of God” becomes hellfire in sub-atomic scenarios. On the other end of the spectrum she paints a picture of love flowing like living water. She offers a myriad of continuums not exclusive to particle physics. She seamlessly threads the needle to include human life sciences and social and political ideas commonly taught in todays media-driven pop paradigm set by our modern new age culture. She leaves the reader with an acute awareness of what the singularity is, what unified purification is, and why it is central to our existence. Jesus is the Beam and God is the Boom was originally written as one manuscript. Dividing them into two separate books was initially a concern for the author because she did not want her readers to miss the climax at the end of the story. She came to terms with the “separation” after realizing that Jesus is the Beam rests on God is the Boom (literally), thereby making it a blessing in disguise. She is confident readers will be enamored at the end of the first book and equally eager to pick up the second with anticipation. Gwynevere Lamb believes her readers will be satisfied and “well fed” after consuming both books, however, a third and fourth installment are already in the making... in the writing.

The memoir of one of Pakistan’s most prominent businessmen in exile ‘I reached to see not the beautiful hotel that we had so lovingly built, but a war zone. . . . We found bodies of our dear guests, colleagues, friends: faces I recognized, faces I had worked with and smiled at. The sight that stunned me was the crater—60 feet wide and 20 feet deep. It had been created by over 1000 kg of RDX. The hotel had not been attacked, it had been brutalized. Dead bodies and dismembered limbs, little pools of blood—it was a massacre. I had thought of myself as a hardened man who had seen violence and gristly sights—but what I saw that day left me shaken.’ Truth Always Prevails is the memoir of one of Pakistan’s most prominent businessmen, Sadruddin Hashwani, chairman of the internationally renowned Hashoo Group. From sleeping in the back of trucks in the cold deserts of Balochistan to now owning a brand of luxury hotels as well as numerous other businesses, Sadruddin Hashwani has led a remarkable life. He has struggled against corrupt politicians and uncooperative government officials to build and sustain an extensive business empire. He has faced near-death experiences, most remarkably the 2008 bombing of his own hotel, the Marriott Islamabad, and has overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. Filled with fascinating anecdotes and telling sketches of prominent Pakistani personalities, his is an extraordinary story that will inspire and entertain readers.
