Teen-aged Esther Harrison had been told that she had less than a year to live. Then Dr. Charles Send entered her life. His concepts of diet and exercise restored her health. She became devoted to him and to his mission of service to others.

But Esther also plunged into a bizarre world of reincarnation and spiritism. What she really Charles Send's daughter, who had died 16 years before? Will the aged Dr. Send really reincarnate himself in her first child, as he promised? Did he really know truths and insights beyond that of other men? What was the source of this tremendous power?

Helen Godfrey Pyke recounts one of the most amazing true stories you will ever read. Esther Harrison had to find truth in a world that cunningly mix truth and deception. End of a Masquerade reminds us how we must cling to biblical truth in a world of satanic illusion and delusion. It is a book that you will never forget.

So when the unexpected opportunity arises to adopt the boy, Landon jumps at the chance. It's a remote possibility. Diana––angry and fickle––could easily change her mind; her dad could black her decision, and the court might not consider letting a divorced man adopt the child.The prospect of having a family again leads Landon to evaluate his past. He becomes interested in spiritual things, begin searching for a church, and discovers love, meaning, and peace in his Bible. Finding a caring friend in his heavenly father, he turns to God for help with securing Ryan.Everything works out fine until Landon attends a Seventh-day Adventist church and is faced with the hardest choice of his life.

And Joetta might cut his visitation time with Robbie. Will putting God first ruin all hope of them being together? Or can he trust God with the people he loves most?… (mais)

"His head turned upward, Prince Oswald spoke. His lips shaped the words of a prayer Luthwin could not hear. The princes hand held the cross higher, and then he gave his command.' We will stand every man where he is.' The Army within hearing stiffened.' We will win. We will not fail. Let them press in on us. Fight where you are.'"The Prince's face shone with confidence that spread to his men. Loose when sensed the sudden urge of strength and courage."The youth looked around him. On every side the Britons advanced. Already the axmen and spearmen on the Saxon flanks met their blows. The green banner caught the breeze and spun out above Cadwallon's head. Luthwin jumped from Twi and drew his sword."' I have so small faith, God, my Maker,' he whispered.' But I do believe. Strengthen us!' He glanced at the cross in Oswald's hands. The Saxon army had no need now for the golden banner. He stood beside Twi, ready for the enemy to come in and crush them. He was not afraid."In long-ago Saxon England, the youth Luthwin finds himself caught in fierce conflicts between pagans and Christians, between princes seeking power and kingdoms, and between the gentle Celtic missionaries and the powerful Roman Church.… (mais)
