At least, she has reason to hope he's dead. But though she's now in charge of the Bigge Corporation, she's not free of him yet. Through the fecklessness of her brother Imp, combined with the intricate feudal law of a tiny Channel Island, it would appear that unbeknownst to her, she was married to Bigge - and that proving his death and releasing herself from his arcane bindings will take years and cost millions.

All truth that has vitalizing power comes home to men in visions. The visions may be of the head or heart. Through whatever tributary the waters first are seen to be flowing they must all merge in the main current of experience, or the vision is no real vision but some cheap fancy, such “stuff as dreams are made of.” The contents of this little volume are a real vision. The author is distinctively a seer. The one vision under which may be classified all the others is a divine-human life, real to thought, actual in living, realized already in part, to be perfected in a kingdom of God on ...

"Jesus answered, My Kingdom is not of this world." John xviii: 36. These words were spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ under circumstances perhaps the most critical, and certainly among the most astonishing of all, in which, as Man, He was ever found. He was stand ing, a prisoner, before Pilate; the Lord of Heaven before the representative of the greatest Empire on earth.

The tremendous growth of Latin American cities in the last few years has continued to aggravate a situation that has its roots in both the Spanish and Indian cultures. The Latin American, even more than the North American of the last century, has viewed the city as his one and only hope for a future. This has led to a concentration of 30% or more of the population of any given country being packed together in and around the largest city, usually the capital.

After surviving a global pandemic, church leaders have had to ask themselves this age-old question with renewed relevancy: What does it mean to gather in Jesus' name during and after a global pandemic? In this book, Rev. J.J. Warren seeks to respond to this question by sharing first-hand interviews conducted with United Methodist leaders in Denmark, Kenya, the Philippines, Singapore, and the U.S. Through these interviews and by dipping into the well of United ...
