It’s obvious that we are living in an exceptional time. Exceptional times require exceptional measures. As in Psalm 2, there is an effort by world rulers to dethrone God and eradicate from society, any references to Christ. Consequently, a war has been declared against Christ’s Church, which at this point in history is in a lethargic state. A defiant departure from God and a slow purge of His helpful boundaries has led to emptiness of souls, moral decadence, arrogance, division, confusion... The Sovereign God is, however, going to respond to the seemingly insurmountable challenges we face in a unique way. God is coming down through what we know as a revival and an awakening to heal the wounded world, the book states. This exceptional divine intervention is what The Coming Deluge of His Glory is about. It chronicles the author’s fascinating and unusual history with God from a voodoo-saturated village in Benin, West Africa to the United-States. A unique journey that has given birth to a unique divine perspective. This book is a compelling vision of a glorious season ahead. “Heaven is ready to touch the Earth. God is coming down like an overwhelming flood to make His purpose established on Earth.” Nestor said. He describes in the book the descriptive visions and insights the Holy Spirit instilled in him about the so-awaited revival and awakening. The Coming Deluge of His Glory will stir up faith, hope, and love in believers through captivating revelations and Nestor’s knowledge of God’s agenda for His kingdom. It’s a proclamation of the coming of God’s army, a lion generation of Christians whose mission is to conquer, rule, and reign with a royal authority and power. It will set your heart on fire and help you explore the intensity of the Father’s sublime love.

India's folklore and classical literature abound with stories of parents who sacrifice their children. In The Hungry God, David Shulman examines one set of such tales—Hindu texts that bear similarities to the biblical aqedah, the account of Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac. In all the stories that Shulman explores, the sacrifice proceeds from a divine command and has no utilitarian explanation or rationale.

In his long-awaited first book of prose, poet and essayist Sherod Santos takes a compelling look into some of poetry’s deepest secrets, an investigation that leads him to the surprising conclusion that poems have minds of their own, minds often inaccessible even to the one who composed them. In these essays, Santos explores not only what he thinks about poetry but also what and how poetry thinks about itself. His writings range across the history of Western poetry, from formative classical myths to modern experimental forms, and touch on subjects as diverse as the rhetorical history of cannibalism, the political and cultural uses of translation, and the current state of American poetry. Along the way, he calls on past poets like Ovid, Baudelaire, and Phyllis Wheatley, on twentieth-century poets like Wallace Stevens, H. D., and Rainer Maria Rilke, and on writers and thinkers like Montaigne, Walter Benjamin, Simone Weil, and Paul de Man. These essays explore facets of poetry known best to one who has practiced the art for years. From the methods of poetic attention to the processes by which perception is transformed into language and from the illusive relationship between poetry and “meaning” to the integral relationship between poetry and memory, this collection delves into what it means to be a poet and how being a poet is intimately tied to one’s social and cultural moment. With Santos’s trademark flair for seeking out the overlooked and unforeseeable, A Poetry of Two Minds is an extraordinary collection that testifies to its author’s far-reaching intellectual curiosity. Readers who have delighted in his insights over the years can now have the satisfaction of having them caught between the covers of this provocative book.

"Sadhana of Service" reflects Eknathji's thoughts on the personality of an ideal worker. Swami Vivekananda said in one of his speeches that our country had always to wait for the birth of a great man. He leads us for some time and there is no continuity. A grand idea should be sufficient to thousands of people to take it up and follow it. But if that grand idea is not propogatedd by a great man, it has no chance of flourishing in our country. His dream was to reverse this trend.

The practice of cannibalism is in certain cultures rejected as evil, while in others it plays a central part in the ritual order. Anthropologists have offered various explanations for the existence of cannibalism, none of which, Peggy Sanday claims, is adequate. In this book she presents a new approach to understanding the phenomenon. Through a detailed examination of ritual cannibalism in selected tribal societies, and a comparison of those cases with others in which the practice is absent, she shows that cannibalism is closely linked to people's orientation to the world, and that it serves as a concrete device for distinguishing the 'cultural self' from the 'natural other'. Combining perspectives drawn from the work of Ricoeur, Freud, Hegel, and Jung and from symbolic anthropology, Sanday argues that ritual cannibalism is intimately connected both with the constructs by which the origin and continuity of life are understood and assured from one generation to the next and with the way in which that understanding is used to control the vital forces considered necessary for the cannibalism in a culture derives from basic human attitudes toward life and death, combined with the realities of the material world. As well as making an original contribution to the understanding of the significant human practice, Sanday also develops a theoretical argument of wider relevance to anthropologists, sociologists, and other readers interested in the function and meaning of cannibalism.

Latinx Poetics: Essays on the Art of Poetry collects personal and academic writing from Latino, Latin American, Latinx, and Luso poets about the nature of poetry and its practice. At the heart of this anthology lies the intersection of history, language, and the human experience. The collection explores the ways in which a people's history and language are vital to the development of a poet's imagination and insists that the meaning and value of poetry are necessary to understand the history and future of a people. The Latinx community is not a monolith, and accordingly the poets assembled here vary in style, language, and nationality. The pieces selected expose the depth of existing verse and scholarship by poets and scholars including Brenda Cárdenas, Daniel Borzutzky, Orlando Menes, and over a dozen more. The essays not only expand the poetic landscape but extend Latinx and Latin American linguistic and geographical boundaries. Writers, educators, and students will find awareness, purpose, and inspiration in this one-of-a-kind anthology.
