Book Description
A young girl is bored and Googles her name. Weirdly, she finds another Jessica, same age, also living in London. They arrange to meet. At the designated time, designated place, Jessica sees the girl she is supposed to be meeting, shock registering on both their faces as they realise they look identical. They shake hands, and at that moment are catapulted into each other's worlds. Jessica finds herself somewhere which looks like the London of 50 years ago, but the year is still 2008 . . . In the parallel London, the history is different - key war memorials are missing, and the Jessica who's life she now inhabits was involved in a dark and sinister conspiracy. Jess must convince everyone she is the same girl, at all costs - if she wants to get back to her London - alive.

Book Description
"This book is a testament to the power we have in the creation of our own lives and the lives of all living things in the world around us. Every step we take, we are on an unconscious quest for the pieces of our selves that we left behind so long ago. We have allowed our inner wisdom to be overshadowed by those who we choose to vies as the directors or authorities in our lives. The release of our own power, in favor of what we believe is expected of us by whomever we label our authority, binds us in chains. Our torment and suffering become far reaching and can actually destroy us, leaving us ablivious to the true reality in our own lives and teh role we play in its creation. On our path to wholeness we are unaware that we first seek that which we deny in ourselves, leaving us in pain or numb, longing for the fullness of love. It is only when we embrace every piece of ourselves that we will rediscover that from the beginning, we were always whole and complete and we need not journey away from ourselves to find peace. This book defines one person's journey inward, leading to teh enlightened path where relentless suffering comes to an end, and reveals the key to living a life fully free from Fear and Control. This revelation...forever allows us to experience the Love and Freedom that has always been awaiting us. In finding our sholeness and freedom within ourselves, we discover something even more powerful; we realize that each of us as individuals is a reflection of the world as a whole. It is our decision to remain asleep, unconscious to the abuse we allow in our lives, that keeps us fragmented and wounded. It is time to awaken to all pieces of ourselves, and unite them in wholeness to rediscover that omnipotent power within us, and remember how to ignite that power to create an entire world-at peace."--back cover.

Book Description
“Always preach to broken hearts and you will never lack for a congregation,” an old saying goes. And for that reason, this book is for everyone—because there are many, many things that break our hearts. Sicknesses, spiritual depression, disabilities, painful memories, strained relationships... all of these weigh on Christians’ hearts at one time or another. And even when our hearts feel light, there is a longing that runs through us—a crying of the soul for eternity, for a new heavens and a new earth. Yet even in the midst of our heartache, we know there is a faith that comes from Jesus Christ that not only encourages us through our pain, but can even transform our pain... as long as we let it. And here is a collection of warm, pastoral messages, filled with personal illustration, that does just that: helps the brokenhearted Christian to locate the God of all comfort in the center of all pain. We are not left there, either; Mike Milton takes us a step further to see how the gospel actually transforms our private pain into personal praise. So read and discover how God uses the things that seek to destroy us to become the very things that bring us salvation, bring us hope, bring us to prayer, bring us together, and ultimately bring us to heaven.
