I didn't expect to be attacked mere weeks into moving, but I was. I was saved and thrown into a world I never thought existed. If that wasn't enough, I nearly shit my pants in a hospital bed (if I was wearing them), because this gruff, asshole vampire, growled at me. Apparently, he's part of the Vampire Summons and doesn't like bystander humans, knowing about their existence. And to top all of this off...I think the bastard is tailing me.

Approximately 2,000 years after he returned to Heaven, the church exists in places like South America, Asia, and the remotest islands of the Earth.

Of the many aircraft carriers built by the United States since World War II, none have been successfully attacked by an aggressor. Not yet, that is. It is the final port call during the first deployment of a new US Navy aircraft carrier. There is no better place for a week of shore leave than an allied port way down south on the 42nd parallel. It’s quiet, friendly, out-of-the-way—perfect—because nothing ever happens here. But the location is ideal for another nation too—a superpower with strategic ambitions. It is perfect for an unthinkable attack where the Americans would not ...

A Tuy was the Igorot king who embodied the ideal of the deep-rooted Ayturi tree.

In the first quarter of the twentieth century, many women - single and married - experienced the Pentecostal revival and entered Pentecostal missions in every corner of the world. Generally discouraged from preaching and leading congregations in the USA, these disempowered women considered their Holy Spirit baptism all the permission and empowerment they needed to go abroad to share the gospel. However, Pentecostal missionaries in the Assemblies of God, the largest American Pentecostal organization, soon became part of an emerging system of AG policy and emerging regulations. Why and how ...
