Everyone thought Emmy Davis was the murder victim, lying on the Jefferson University lawn, asphyxiated. Instead, the victim was a friend of Emmy's and the two looked very much alike. As campus life goes on, Emmy is haunted by her friend's face in her dreams. Something doesn't fit and Emmy is determined to find out what it is. Stumbling upon evidence that the police missed, Emmy is drawn into the investigation, not realizing just how involved she was to become. To Captain Caleb Haines, solving homicides was more than a job; it was his life. The crime at Jefferson University was reminiscent of two other cases in the city. Caleb's gut told him all three had to be connected. Though serial homicides weren't routine, Caleb and his team began their work. Soon, Caleb learns that this case has more twists than he realized. Hardened by the job, he is taken off guard by the beautiful Emmy Davis --who fits the victim profile-- and who can't seem to keep herself out of the case.

This is a good outline of the 1st Century Christian Church and how we 21st Century Believers share in their faith. We see many great stories in the bible about the first century believers and God's plan is for everyone to have a great and miraculous story.

"When she was fifteen years old, Leslie King ran away from an abusive home, looking for a better life and longing for real love. What she found instead was a man who wooed her just long enough to trap her in a life of prostitution. She became one of the many thousands of trafficked individuals in the United States, a number that continues to rise-in the biggest cities and in the most idyllic towns. As is true for so many in similar situations, life was nothing but brokenness and pain for Leslie. After years of hopelessness, she finally decided to take her own life. And then God spoke. With his promise that he was with her and had mighty things for her to accomplish ringing in her ears, she got off the streets, got clean, and got to work on the mission to which he'd called her. Now Leslie is a passionate and heroic advocate for other trafficked women and teenage girls in her community and across the country. More than a gritty, no-holds-barred deliverance story, When Angels Fight includes powerful advice from Leslie and those she's encountered in her work-police officers, judges, and other advocates and activists. She also shows you what YOU can do to make a real difference in your own community. Her call from God includes marshaling others to the cause and equipping them to fight alongside her and the angels who battle for God's children-just as they once fought for her"--

"Sage advice for frustrated parents." KIRKUS REVIEWS Through their years of working with Middle Schoolers and their parents, Darryl Sollerh and Leslie King, LCSW, have developed a compassionate yet realistic approach that takes into consideration both the parent and child's point of view. Filled with real-life examples, they examine the likely flashpoints for family conflicts, from Middle Schooler social lives to their homework habits, from their misrepresentations to their calls for fairness, from their demands for independence to their need for dependence. Sollerh and King's approach, at heart, seeks to spark an empathetic awakening in both parent and child, not only as they each meet the initially difficult phases of any challenge or crisis, but also as they move into the future, guided by a new awareness capable of supporting their ongoing efforts to grow in a relationship of shared dialogs, mutual respect and deepening understanding.

Many of us sweep our emotional pain "under the rug" or try to push through it, only to find out that it is still there. It follows us from relationship to relationship and we wonder why the same things keep happening over and over again. We ask ourselves "when will things get better?" When will we be able to find some peace in our relationships? Have you found yourself thinking about those questions? When your relationships end leaving you with pain, what do you do? Loving Through the Pain examines the pain which God's children experience when they are not properly instructed on how to deal with betrayal and hurt in relationships. By carrying distrust and old mindsets into each new relationship, we miss out on God's best for us. As you apply the principles in this book, you will be able to navigate through the pain that exist in every kind of relationship. You will learn how to forgive, let go, and move forward into the successful relationships that God wants you to have. As you learn how much God loves you, you will be able to love yourself, and in turn, love others - even when they cause you pain. I was born and raised in Philadelphia. I have been an elementary school teacher in the public school system for the past seventeen years. I resigned my teaching position to begin a new journey as a writer and public speaker. Three years ago I began writing this book out of a burden from the pain in my own relationships and what I've witnessed in other people's relationships. My goal is to continue to write to help people navigate through life's difficult times and encourage them in their walk with God.
