The Enemies of Rome
Author: Stephen Kershaw
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1643133756
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 556
Book Description
A fresh and vivid narrative history of the Roman Empire from the point of view of the “barbarian” enemies of Rome. History is written by the victors, and Rome had some very eloquent historians. Those the Romans regarded as barbarians left few records of their own, but they had a tremendous impact on the Roman imagination. Resisting from outside Rome’s borders or rebelling from within, they emerge vividly in Rome’s historical tradition, and left a significant footprint in archaeology. Kershaw builds a narrative around the lives, personalities, successes, and failures both of the key opponents of Rome’s rise and dominance, and of those who ultimately brought the empire down. Rome’s history follows a remarkable trajectory from its origins as a tiny village of refugees from a conflict zone to a dominant superpower. But throughout this history, Rome faced significant resistance and rebellion from peoples whom it regarded as barbarians: Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Goths, Vandals, Huns, Picts and Scots. Based both on ancient historical writings and modern archaeological research, this new history takes a fresh look at the Roman Empire through the personalities and lives of key opponents during the trajectory of Rome’s rise and fall.

Book Description
A rogue Black Ops unit with the president in their crosshairs. A Secret Service agent who will break every rule. A president falling for the one person he shouldn't-a man. Newly elected President Jack Spiers's presidency is rocked from the very beginning, and he's working furiously to keep the world from falling apart. Between terrorism attacks ripping apart Europe, Russia's constant posturing and aggression, and the quagmire of the Middle East, Jack is struggling to keep his campaign promise-to work toward a better, safer world. For Special Agent Ethan Reichenbach, Jack is just another president, the third in twelve years. With Jack's election, he's been promoted, and now he's running the presidential detail, which puts him side by side with Jack daily. He's expecting another stuffed suit and an arrogant DC politician, but Jack shocks him with his humor and humanity. There are rules against a Secret Service agent and one of their protectees developing a friendship-big rules. Besides, Jack is straight as a ruler, and a widower, and Ethan has always avoided falling for straight men. Ethan keeps his distance, but Jack draws him in, like gas to a naked flame, and it's a lure he isn't strong enough to turn away from. As the two men collide, rules are shattered and the world teeters on the verge of war, and a rogue Black Ops unit bent on destruction sets Jack in their deadly crosshairs. Ethan must put everything on the line in order to save the man he's come to love, Jack's presidency, and the world.

The Enemies of Joy

ISBN: 9781546496069
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
The devil is working intelligently and diligently with near hundred percent precision, on how to steal, kill, or destroy your joy. He is determined to use anyone or anything available that he can. The devil wants you to have everything that is opposite of joy, such as sorrow, shame, depression, and disgrace to name a few. It is your responsibility with God's help to defend and secure your joy against the devil and his agents with everything you've got. Money cannot buy joy. You don't have to be poor or wealthy, old or young, and big or small to have true joy. Though God is the source of true joy, you can promote or limit your joy. You can control what you do, not what others do, but you have the power to control how you accept/react/respond to what others do. Joy works wonders, it is the soul's medicine, and gives life to your bones. The bible says in Nehemiah 8: 10c, that "The joy of the Lord is your strength." You can live a life full of joy, because you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. This book will show you the enemies of joy, how to defeat them, and how to defend/secure your joy. If you don't defend your joy, nobody will do it for you! No matter what you are going through today, there is hope. Trust God, let Him wipe away your tears and help you reap in joy per Psalm 126: 5, "Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy." If you don't want sorrow, shame, depression, and disgrace to rule your life, you must fight and overcome the enemies of joy without compromise, because your life depends on it. You and God forms the undefeatable team against all the enemies of your joy. Talk is cheap, but action is power! You can do this, I believe you can, yes you can!
