Guardian: They chose to protect her. But forgot to guard their hearts.
by Heather BurchVigilance. The mission to safeguard Nikki Youngblood depends on the fragile alliance of two half-angel, half-human guardians, both struggling with intense feelings for the girl who has been assigned to their care. Mace, steadfast and deeply in love, wants to protect Nikki at all costs, while Raven’s loyalty to Nikki finds him advocating for her independence and battling his own darker inclinations. At the same time, Nikki finds it harder and harder to choose between the two heavenly beings she may never have. Dangers intensify, and tensions between Mace and Raven flare as the purpose of their mission becomes clear. Can their defenses hold up to master manipulator Damon Vessler and the powerful secret he holds regarding Nikki’s heritage? Can anyone protect Nikki from her true purpose and destiny?

Guardians of Islam: Religious Authority and Muslim Communities of Late Medieval Spain
by Miller Kathryn A.Kathryn A. Miller radically reconceptualizes what she calls the exclave experience of medieval Muslim minorities. By focusing on the legal scholars (faqihs) of fifteenth-century Aragonese Muslim communities and translating little-known and newly discovered texts, she unearths a sustained effort to connect with Muslim coreligionaries and preserve practice and belief in the face of Christian influences.
Guardians of Islam: Religious Authority and Muslim Communities of Late Medieval Spain
by Kathryn MillerMuslim enclaves within non-Islamic polities are commonly believed to have been beleaguered communities undergoing relentless cultural and religious decline. Cut off from the Islamic world, these Muslim groups, it is assumed, passively yielded to political, social, and economic forces of assimilation and acculturation before finally accepting Christian dogma. Kathryn A. Miller radically reconceptualizes what she calls the exclave experience of medieval Muslim minorities. By focusing on the legal scholars (faqihs) of fifteenth-century Aragonese Muslim communities and translating little-known and newly discovered texts, she unearths a sustained effort to connect with Muslim coreligionaries and preserve practice and belief in the face of Christian influences. Devoted to securing and disseminating Islamic knowledge, these local authorities intervened in Christian courts on behalf of Muslims, provided Arabic translations, and taught and advised other Muslims. Miller follows the activities of the faqihs, their dialogue with Islamic authorities in nearby Muslim polities, their engagement with Islamic texts, and their pursuit of traditional ideals of faith. She demonstrates that these local scholars played a critical role as cultural mediators, creating scholarly networks and communal solidarity despite living in an environment dominated by Christianity.

by Jill Kelly Richard GerberA channeled overview of the Celtic path of Arthurian fulfillment, a vision of personal and planetary transformation• Gives a detailed explanation and overview of the kingdoms of nature and the devic forces that comprise the Divine Mother's kingdom on Earth• Explains the Celtic calendar and the primary natural forms--animal, stone, tree, flower, plant, and bird--that are activated during the 16-month lunar cycle of emotional growthAccording to the Celtic Way, all spirit forces and forms of nature are here to teach and support every individual in attaining his or her full wisdom status. In this way Earth can become a land of beloveds who have fully embodied the laws of love in sacred partnerships, each individual cocreating with the divine. This is the Arthurian fulfillment. It is only through meeting our innermost fears--our shadows and dragons--and transforming them into love that we may emerge as divine humans empowered to lift the entire planet closer to this sacred vision of the peaceable kingdom restored.Instructed by the guardians of the Other World, trees, animals, and other Earth spirits, Celtic scholar Jill Kelly outlines the cosmology of Celtic mysticism that orders the Divine Mother's kingdom on Earth and that calls humanity to awaken to its sacred potential. Guardians of the Celtic Way describes the 142 planes of the soul's descent into the separation from the One, explains the Celtic calendar and how the forces of nature interact with earthly cycles to assist us in bringing about spiritual fulfillment, and gently calls us to follow the Celtic path of ascension and establish Heaven on Earth.

Guarding the Secrets: Palestinian Terrorism and a Father's Murder of His Too-American Daughter
by Ellen HarrisPlease be aware that this book contains numerous typographical errors. These are not scanning errors. Back cover: From Chapter One [Cliff checked his watch. It was nearly eleven, about the time Tina had promised to meet him. As he looked up, there she was, bouncing along, waving to him as she left Wendy's. Just before midnight the young couple was heading toward Tina's apartment. . . . As they stopped in the parking lot for Tina to retie her shoelace, Cliff said, "I'll walk you to the door." "No." Tina was adamant. "That's all right." "I'll stay then till you get into the house." Cliff was worried. There were no lights on in the Isa apartment and by this time of night her parents were always home from their corner grocery store. "Yeah, wait fifteen minutes," Tina said. "If there's any trouble-I'll come back out." She was afraid. She had left a note on the television set in the living room that she had started a job and would be back after eleven. She had not wanted to tell her parents ahead of time about her job. No one in her family had ever worked outside the family store. . . . Tina knew that her parents would be difficult tonight. [Her father] Zeit, in particular, did not understand her dreams of being independent and American. To him, everything should remain as it had been before he had emigrated from his little village in the West Bank back in the early 1950s. As Tina walked up the steps to the apartment complex, Cliff watched her. His eyes followed her up the stairs to the landing and as she knocked on the door. Her mother opened it, for they had taken away Tina's keys weeks earlier. Turning-her head, Tina looked down at Cliff and smiled. He knew she could not wave to him with her mother standing there. If we catch you seeing Cliff again, we'll kill you, her family had screamed at Tina. Cliff waited. He walked down to the building to make certain Tina had turned the light on in her bedroom and was all right. He sat on the concrete steps a while, but the light never went on. He walked home. Maybe she's in the kitchen fixing something to eat, he thought. Or they're arguing in the living room. As he walked several miles to the bus stop on Grand Avenue, an ambulance passed him about one A.M. That stuck in his mind for years.

Guatemala. El silencio del gallo: Un misionero español en la guerra más cruenta de América
by Carlos SantosUn impresionante testimonio de coraje y determinación frente a las atrocidades cometidas en Guatemala contra los últimos mayas. En la década de los sesenta, Luis Gurriarán, un joven misionero recién salido del seminario, llega a Guatemala con la tarea de evangelizar a un poblado de indígenas mayas. El caciquismo, la impresionante miseria y la explotación brutal de estos nativos removerán su fe, que empezará a transitar por la senda de un cristianismo utópico, social. En plena guerra fría, con el eje occidental empeñado en perseguir la subversión en América Latina, la labor evangelizadora de estos misioneros estuvo a menudo en el punto de mira. Pese a los problemas y tensiones, la alianza -no muy frecuente- de la Iglesia con los pobres dio como fruto una lenta transformación hacia el progreso de las comunidades en que se asentaron. Entre el periodismo de investigación y la narración histórica, este libro rompe el silencio existente sobre la guerra más cruenta y menos conocida de América, al tiempo que permite entender tanto la Teología de la Liberación como los movimientos guerrilleros centroamericanos del siglo XX. El testimonio de este misionero español, que denunció ante la ONU, junto con Rigoberta Menchú, al gobierno guatemalteco de Ríos Montt en 1982, repasa cuarenta años de historia a partir de cartas, fotografías, grabaciones, documentos y decenas de conversaciones con su sobrino y autor del trabajo, Carlos Santos.
Guerra Contra o Ocultismo, Feitiçaria e Falsa Religião
by Doriane Gaia Gabriel AgboEste livro é uma obra sobre o que chamo de trindade do mal - ocultismo, feitiçaria e religião falsa. Estas são os organismos através do qual Satanás realiza seus planos perversos contra o avanço do Reino de Deus e da humanidade. Estes três ramos do reino das trevas trabalham em harmonia para atingir os objetivos acima referidos. Satã é o criador e cabeça de cada um deles. E você vai sempre encontrar o outro quando qualquer um deles estiver em operação. É por isso que eu os chamo de uma trindade. Por exemplo, no ocultismo, você também encontrará a feitiçaria e religião falsa. Os falsos profetas e as bruxas geralmente pertencem às sociedades e cultos secretos. Eles limitam-se a ramificar-se de acordo com os seus objetivos e ações imediatas. Eles são diferentes ramos de uma mesma árvore. Mas como podemos verificar esta ameaça espiritual que ao longo dos tempos tem causado tanta confusão para o homem e sua tensa relação com o seu Criador? Isto é o que nós tentamos mostrar aqui. Todo cristão deve se levantar, vestir toda a armadura do reino dos céus e lutar contra esses ataques satânicos. E nós temos que fazer isso agora; com urgência e de forma decisiva.
Guerra Santa: Existencia
by Bryan Andrés Quintero HerreraLas deidades también tienen ambiciones. <P><P>«Las historias de ángeles han sido oídas pero nunca descifradas. Los enfrentamientos entre el bien y el mal a través de los ángeles hacen parte fundamental de este libro extraño pero vigoroso, que rompe esquemas tradicionales de narración y llega como lanza de arcángeles y querubines al corazón de los lectores jóvenes que buscan entrar de lleno a la verdad. Es para leerlo y sorprenderse».Gustavo Álvarez Gardeazábal.
Guerra de dos Mundos
by Deepak ChopraEste libro es una serie de ensayos sobre la ciencia contra la espiritualidad. De Deepak Chopra, autor bestseller de Sincrodestino, El libro de los secretos, Jamás moriremos e Iluminación. Y del reconocido físico Leonard Mlodinow, autor de Brevísima historia del tiempo. Este libro fascinará a millones de lectores de la ciencia y de la espiritualidad por igual, pero también, a toda aquella persona que alguna vez se ha preguntado, ¿qué significa estar vivo? Dos autores mundialmente exitosos se conocen durante un debate televisivo en la Universidad de Caltech; el tema: el futuro de Dios. Uno de ellos, Deepak Chopra, defiende la espiritualidad, el otro, Leonard Mlodinow, es un físico prominente. Este extraordinario libro es producto de ese polémico y fortuito -pero respetuoso- que significó el choque de dos visiones opuestas acerca de nuestro mundo. El debate y los diferentes puntos de vista crecieron al mismo tiempo que la amistad entre ambos autores. En Guerra de dos mundos, estos dos pensadores discuten el cosmos, la evolución y la vida, el cerebro humano y la existencia de Dios, levantando las preguntas más existenciales de la experiencia humana: ¿Cómo surgió el universo? ¿Cuál es la naturaleza del tiempo? ¿Qué es la vida? ¿Estaba equivocado Darwin? ¿Qué nos hace humanos? ¿Cuál es la conexión entre nuestro cuerpo, nuestra mente y nuestro cerebro? ¿Es Dios una ilusión? No importa si crees en la espiritualidad o en la ciencia, esta serie de ensayos serán el motor que hará que tu mente gire en torno a un debate único de dos visiones del mundo opuestas. Las manos que han escrito esta obra son dos de las figuras más importantes, respectadas y acreditadas de cada uno de sus ámbitos y a partir de su experiencia, su investigación y sus propias creencias describen su teoría, su visión y sus respuestas a las preguntas acerca de nuestro mundo.

Guerre contre l’occultisme, la sorcellerie et la fausse religion
by Gabriel AgboCe livre est un travail selon ce que j’appelle la trinité maléfique – l’occultisme, la sorcellerie et la fausse religion. Ce sont les moyens par lesquelles Satan effectue ses plans pervers contre l’avancement du Royaume de Dieu et contre l’humanité. Ces trois branches du Royaume des Ténèbres travaillent en harmonie pour atteindre les objectifs nommés. Satan est l’instigateur et le directeur de chacun d’eux. Et vous trouverez toujours le reste quand quelqu’un est opérationnel. C’est pourquoi Je les appelle une trinité. Par exemple, dans l’occultisme vous trouvez aussi la sorcellerie et la fausse religion. Les fau prophètes et les sorcières appartiennent généralement aux sociétés secrètes et aux cultes. Ils sont simplement organisés en fonction de leurs objectifs et opérations immédiats. Ils sont des branches différentes du même arbre. Mais comment pouvons-nous détecter cette menace spirituelle qui a causé tant de ravages chez l’homme et a brisé sa relation avec son Créateur. C’est ce que nous avons essayé de proposer ici. Chaque chrétien doit se lever, mettre toute l’armure de du Royaume des Cieux et combattre ces attaques sataniques. Et nous devons le faire en ce moment ; de manière urgente et décisive.
