SE: Dekker 2 in 1 (Obsessed & Three)
by Ted DekkerThree: Enter a world where nothing is what it seems. Where your closest friend could be your greatest enemy. Kevin Parson is driving his car late one summer day when, suddenly, his cell phone rings. A man who identifies himself as Slater speaks in a breathy voice: You have exactly three minutes to confess your sin to the world. Refuse, and the car you're driving will blow sky high. Kevin panics. Who would make such a call? What sin? Kevin ditches the car. Precisely three minutes later, a massive explosion sets his world on a collision course with madness. From the #1 best-selling fiction author comes a powerful story of good, evil, and all that lies between. Obsessed: A deadly tale of ultimate obsession. Stephen Friedman is making a good living in good times. He's just an ordinary guy. Or so he thinks. But one day an extraordinary piece of information tells him differently. It's a clue from the grave of a Holocaust survivor. A clue that makes him heir to an incredible fortune...a clue that only he and one other man can possibly understand. That man is Roth Braun, a serial killer who has been waiting for Stephen for thirty years. Roth was stopped once before. This time nothing will get in his way. Known worldwide for page-turning, adrenaline-laced thrillers, Dekker raises the stakes in this story of passion, revenge, and an all-consuming obsession for the ultimate treasure.

¡Se retiran todos los cargos!: Relatos devocionales desde la corte terrenal hasta el trono de la gracia, Tomo 1
by Haroldo CamachoTantos cargos, tan poco perdó n. Tanto miedo, tan poca confianza. Tantas cadenas, tan poca libertad. Tanta culpa, tan grande condenació n. Tan grandes y gruesos tomos de la ley, tan pocas pá ginas que conceden perdones. Esta era mi realidad cotidiana mientras trabajaba en los tribunales como inté rprete jurí dico certificado. Tú entrará s en los tribunales. Los relatos casi te hará n sentir que está s presente en la audiencia. Seguirá s procesos de divorcio, juicios por homicidio, niñ os que llegan a la correccional por ausentismo escolar, trá fico de drogas en la escuela, y asuntos má s graves.Todos estos relatos se convierten en trampolines para entrar en la suprema corte. Aquí todos debemos comparecer ante el tribunal de Dios. Y todas nuestras narraciones y relatos acaban aquí , porque comienza una nueva historia. No la nuestra, sino la de Otro, nuestro Sustituto, nuestro Abogado, nuestro Juez, todo en Uno, ¡ Jesucristo el Rey del perdó n!En este tribunal, el perdó n revierte los cargos. La confianza desecha todo temor. Todas las cadenas se desatan, porque la Palabra de absolució n rompe todos los grilletes: Tus pecados son perdonados es el hilo que enlaza todos los relatos de este devocional. La ley da paso al evangelio. Cada historia nos lleva desde los tribunales terrenales, donde mayormente escuchamos sentencia y condenas, hasta el trono celestial de la gracia. Aquí , el Juez del universo tiene solo una palabra: ¡ Perdonado!. Pero ¿ có mo? ¿ En virtud de cuá l ley? ¿ O en virtud de quié n? Verá s la respuesta claramente expuesta en cada uno de los relatos de ¡ Se retiran todos los cargos! Los pecadores perdonados se van totalmente libres ante esta asombrosa declaració n de gracia de parte del Juez del universo. Ante la Palabra de Dios, ¡ desaparece toda culpa!

by Haroldo S CamachoSe siente un profundo temor cuando uno es llamado a comparecer ante un juez. Aunque solo sea por una multa de trá nsito. Especialmente si uno comparece sin un abogado. ¿ Cuá l será la multa? ¿ Habrá una defensa? ¿ Me declaro culpable, o pido un juicio? Pero cuando comparecemos ante el tribunal de Dios, todo temor se disipa: ¡ se retiran todos los cargos! Pero ¿ es verdad realmente? Hemos hecho tantas cosas que estamos convencidos de que no tenemos perdó n. Pensamos: « Tal como no se puede confiar plenamente en el sistema judicial, tampoco se puede confiar plenamente en el perdó n de nuestros pecados» . Pero el martillo del juez interrumpe nuestros titubeos: « Por causa de Cristo, se retiran todos los cargos, no hay nada pendiente. ¡ El defendido queda perdonado! ¡ Para siempre!» .El segundo tomo de ¡ Se retiran todos los cargos! continú a el viaje desde la corte terrenal hasta el trono de la gracia de Dios, en tanto Haroldo Camacho nos muestra que cada pecador recibe un veredicto de inocente, ¡ sin importar cuá n culpable sea!

The Sea Can Wash Away All Evils: Modern Marine Pollution and the Ancient Cathartic Ocean
by Kimberley Christine PattonKimberley Patton examines the environmental crises facing the world's oceans from the perspective of religious history. Much as the ancient Greeks believed, and Euripides wrote, that "the sea can wash away all evils," a wide range of cultures have sacralized the sea, trusting in its power to wash away what is dangerous, dirty, and morally contaminating. The sea makes life on land possible by keeping it "pure."Patton sets out to learn whether the treatment of the world's oceans by industrialized nations arises from the same faith in their infinite and regenerative qualities. Indeed, the sea's natural characteristics, such as its vast size and depth, chronic motion and chaos, seeming biotic inexhaustibility, and unique composition of powerful purifiers-salt and water-support a view of the sea as a "no place" capable of swallowing limitless amounts of waste. And despite evidence to the contrary, the idea that the oceans could be harmed by wasteful and reckless practices has been slow to take hold. Patton believes that environmental scientists and ecological advocates ignore this relationship at great cost. She bases her argument on three influential stories: Euripides' tragedy Iphigenia in Tauris; an Inuit myth about the wild and angry sea spirit Sedna who lives on the ocean floor with hair dirtied by human transgression; and a disturbing medieval Hindu tale of a lethal underwater mare. She also studies narratives in which the sea spits back its contents-sins, corpses, evidence of guilt long sequestered-suggesting that there are limits to the ocean's vast, salty heart. In these stories, the sea is either an agent of destruction or a giver of life, yet it is also treated as a passive receptacle. Combining a history of this ambivalence toward the world's oceans with a serious scientific analysis of modern marine pollution, Patton writes a compelling, cross-disciplinary study that couldn't be more urgent or timely.

The Sea Keeper's Daughters (A Carolina Heirlooms Novel #3)
by Lisa WingateGood Reads' Review: "Whitney is an independent Michigan restaurant owner, whose father committed suicide when Whitney was a child, and whose mother died from cancer only a few years previously. When Whitney receives word that her elderly, estranged, step-father who lives in the Outer Banks of North Carolina has a medical emergency, she travels to North Carolina to check on him, and to evaluate the vintage 'Excelsior' (waterfront property) that she will inherit when he passes away. As a young girl, Whitney had spent many summers at the Excelsior, under the critical instruction of her paternal grandmother, Ziltha Benoit, of southern high society. Now, as her grandmother is gone and her mother and father are both dead, she longs to learn about her family--particularly about the high society members of her family. After finding three important treasures squirreled away in the Excelsior, she finds and reads numerous letters written to her grandmother Ziltha by Ziltha's twin sister: a relative that Whitney had never known about. The letters provide important clues to the meaning of the items she found at the Excelsior, and after she eventually publishes the letters (which the writer had requested) Whitney uncovers startling facts that she never anticipated about the dynamics in her own family." Through these discoveries, Whitney learns about and experiences grace, forgiveness, love, and compassion which enable her to develop different values and priorities.
