4w ago00:36:49Tap to summarizeFrom Out of the Sand by Steve Sieting https://www.amazon.com/Out-Sand-Steve-Sieting/dp/1972299816/ Authorstevensieting.com Having isolated myself from the Lord, I was spiritually drowning, tired and worn from life’s pressures. I was finished. No longer willing to go through the motions, I was ready to turn my back, walk away from God, and never look back. And yet I said one last prayer, hoping to receive something to grab me up out of my despair. Alone, depressed, and silent in my chair, the Holy Spirit simply said, “I hear your cry.” He rescued me from self-destruction, and placed my feet on solid ground. My journey back into His presence has been a long but rewarding trek. He revealed my heart, and I had to confess, repent, and return for more instruction because it was true and done with love. I am humbled that He took so much time with me. He is my great I Am! My chronicled inspirational and poetic journey back into His presence was my revelation, and I now know that I was not alone in my drowning. So many people feel unworthy, lost, pressured, or isolated, and want to be comforted by personally knowing that God hears their cry as well. God wants to free you from feeling unworthy. He wants to tell you exactly where you are in Him and lead you into a closer relationship with Him. This book encourages you to listen, obey, and be responsible to the Holy Spirit. You are not alone! “I hear your cry” ushered me into His peace. It is more than enough. About the author Steve Sieting born to depression era parents in Michigan,1956.

4w ago00:44:51Tap to summarizeThe Art of the Steal: Trump and the Economic Hit Man Presidency by John Perkins https://www.amazon.com/Art-Steal-Trump-Economic-Presidency/dp/B0G7VFBY21 Johnperkins.org Since World War II, US presidents of both parties have relied on an economic hit man strategy. They have used the four pillars of that strategy (fear, debt, anxiety over insufficiency, and divide and conquer) to control other nations and enrich a growing oligarchy. In the groundbreaking Confessions of an Economic Hit Man trilogy, John Perkins exposed the complex, expansive, and clandestine global network that serves the interests of powerful corporate, financial, and political entities. In The Art of the Steal, he reveals its most dangerous evolution. Donald Trump represents a historic shift. He is the first US president to turn the economic hit man strategy into a personal brand and governing style. He has ascended the four pillars, brought the playbook home, and reversed the march toward the American ideal of liberty, equality, justice, democracy, opportunity, and an individualism that supports family and community. At the same time, he has forced what was hidden into the open. This book explains how this happened, why it matters, and what each of us can do to turn things around. Both warning and blueprint, it offers a pathway to renewing the American ideal—and using it to model a new global ideal. About the author John Perkins is the author of 12 books on global intrigue, economics, shamanism, and transformation, including “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man,” and “Touching the Jaguar.” They have been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 70 weeks, sold millions of copies, and are published in at least 38 languages. His latest, “Message from Pleiades,” is the story of a life-and-world-changing experience in an ancient Mayan city; it is his first novel (written under the pen name of J P Moody). As chief economist at a major consulting firm, John advised the World Bank, UN, Fortune 500 corporations, US and other governments. He regularly speaks at universities and economic and environmental forums and is a founder of the Pachamama Alliance and Dream Change, non profit organizations that partner with indigenous people to protect environments and offer programs to change the destructive ways of industrial societies.

Jul 1900:21:43Tap to summarizeUnveiling the Mysteries of Lust: My Story by Shashawnah Smith https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FBXDYF8S This book is a spiritual definition of Lust using my own personal life story. It is full of lessons the Holy Spirit has taught me through the process of living with many head-on-collisions with the Spirit of Lust. Inside you will find not only definitions of how my particular strand of lust (sexual) has had it’s moments of defeat in my life, but of the other strands of lusts that people just like you may battle, without even knowing it. This book gives people a very transparent glance into a time in my life that I’d otherwise not be willing to share had God not prompted and pushed me to reveal. There’s parts where you’d laugh, you’d cry and you’d probably cuss me out but, I believe, most of all, that you’ll learn and grow spiritually as well. So, as you embark on this journey with me, stay open minded and alert because it’s an adventure!

Jul 1600:42:38Tap to summarizeHaystack Full of Needles: A memoir of research on mechanisms of memory in the decades that defined neuroscience by Louis Neal Irwin https://www.amazon.com/dp/1664140603 Lirwin.org How do we store information in the brain? Is memory a thing in a place, like a specific molecule in a particular cell? Or does learning require a process in a population, like neurons firing in a specific pattern for each experience? This combination of memoir and history tells the story of how the mechanisms of memory were gradually revealed, through biographical vignettes of the scientists who set out to solve the riddle of memory, including the author?s own efforts as he was coming of age as a scientist. It shows how individual goals intertwine with the technologies at hand to push scientific knowledge forward, often erratically, and always in the context of social forces and private ups and downs. Not only a compelling personal story with the war in Vietnam, civil rights movement, and downfall of two presidents as backdrop, this is a lucid explanation of brain function for the nonscientist and valuable contribution to the history of science in the decades that saw neuroscience join molecular biology as the marquee biomedical accomplishments of the twentieth century About the author Writer, neuroscientist, astrobiologist, educator, and political activist. Born in West Texas and raised in San Antonio, now current resident of Denver. Former Professor and Chair of Biological Sciences at the University of Texas at El Paso.

As you are led through her life, you will see how the prophetic came to fulfillment through her lived experiences. The miracles she gives witness to will speak to a God who is alive and dwells among us. He is the Lord who will speak to our times and our culture. God leaves us with a message of his all-consuming, unconditional love and a hope for all mankind.

Jul 1500:28:50Tap to summarizeCustom Maid Palestine for New World Disorder https://custommaidbooks.com/product/custom-maid-palestine-for-new-world-disorder/ Publish and ship date: August 1, 2026 The book proposes a two-state solution that will require Arab countries and Israel to redraw their borders to let a Palestinian state take shape with Jerusalem as its capital. Historical Palestine included the territory that Israel, Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon, southern Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt occupy today. The idea that Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank relocate to a new homeland has merit. However, rather than moving to Jordan, Egypt, South Sudan, or other countries in Africa, it could be a newly created state in what has always been part of the Territorial Province of Palestine. It is well known that the borders of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Jordan, Syria and Israel, were established by the British and French for their own political and economic interests. Therefore, there is no reason these borders cannot be redrawn to accommodate a Palestinian state. What is essential now is for Palestinians worldwide to unite and advocate for the establishment and global recognition of a Palestinian state that is independent of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. The proposed Palestinian state deserves serious consideration as it presents the best opportunity to create a viable modern nation that can peacefully coexist with Israel.
