Devil And Pierre Gernet
$28.99David Bentley Hart – author of The Beauty of the Infinite and The Doors of the Sea – turns his theological imagination to narrative fiction in this collection of four short stories and one novella. Anticipating questions about his shift in genre, Hart writes that “God is no more likely (and a good deal less likely) to be found in theology than in poetry and fiction.” Far from simple allegory, however, these stories beguile and entrance the reader because of Hart’s engrossing, opulent writing style and the deep theological and philosophical questions he raises. Occasionally flabbergasting, often bedazzling, sometimes heartbreaking, and ultimately mesmerizing, these stories are wide ranging in context and scope but united by a common thread of haunting religious and philosophical questions about this life and the next. This powerful collection will engage both the mind and the heart.

Apuesta Del Cielo – (Spanish)
$18.99El ha dejado su pasado bien lejos… o eso es lo que cree. Kent Anthony es un brillante ingeniero de software que esta ganando mucho dinero con su carrera fenomenal. Por fin esta viviendo la vida idilica, alejado de ideas de robos, asesinatos y otras clases de conductas criminales horribles. Esta historia lo traera frente a frente con un mundo escondido mas real que lo que la mayoria de la gente piensa, un mundo en el que lo invisible es mas poderoso que cualquier cosa visible.
A brilliant young software designer on the brink of becoming a millionare…Two sleek, well-fed bank executives who know an opportunity when they see it… A Nike-clad grandmother who literally puts feet to her prayers…A beautiful young widow who uncovers a dangerous secret… On one level it’s a psychological thriller–a fascinating account of the (almost) perfect crime. On another level it’s a romance–the tale of bittersweet love that is (almost) enough to save a soul. But most of all it’s an imaginative window into a world more real and vital than most people ever discover here on earth, the unseen world where the real dramas of the universe–and of our daily lives–continually unfold. Heaven’s Wager is one of those rare novels that is both a page turner and a thought provoker. You’ll devour it in one sitting–then find yourself pondering it for months to come.

In her friendships with these women and her budding relationship with Hamilton, Haley begins to find self-acceptance-not because of social standing, accomplishments or her appearance-but rather based on who God created her to be.

Soon the sky will explode in cascading showers of silver and gold. Everywhere, faces will turn skyward in wide-eyed wonder. Then the sky will grow dark again–but it will not be empty. The air will be filled with clouds of smoke and specks of debris will rain down everywhere. Some will pick bits of paper from their children’s hair. Some will brush away still-burning sparks or embers. And some will absentmindedly scratch at the tiny, biting specks that dot their necks and arms. Will the beginning of the show mark the beginning of the end? That’s what FBI agent Nathan Donovan must decide. When he is forced to enlist the help of ex-wife Macy Monroe, an expert in the psychology of terrorism, the fireworks really begin–but she may be the only one who can help him stop the Plague Maker in time.
