Confronting the Thief: Take Back What the Enemy Stole and Declare Divine Recovery over Your Heart, F

Recover All the Enemy Has Stolen We've all felt the gut-wrenching helplessness of loss when the enemy has stolen something from us: finances, health, peace, a promise or opportunity, even family and friends. Yet even in the most hopeless of situations, you can go from victim to victor. With uplifting teaching and piercing prophetic insight, Jane Hamon outlines the enemy's tactics to steal, kill, and destroy-and imparts biblical revelation, practical decrees, and prayers to take authority over the thief; experience full restoration; live in supernatural provision, prosperity, and power; possess your prophetic promises; and receive a double portion of all you lost. Jesus came to bring life to the fullest. It's time to contend against the enemy's death and destruction, arise in strength and wisdom, and recover all he's stolen from you.

Body of Knowledge Card Deck: Sensorimotor Practices for Awareness, Regulation, and Expansion

Our bodies hold a wealth of knowledge that, with the right tools, we can tap into at any time. Our physical habits-of sensation, posture, and movement-reflect implicit knowledge of our histories of trauma, relationships, and resources, as well as our future possibilities. However, this wealth of information often eludes our awareness. The intention of the somatic practices in this card deck is to experientially illuminate the innate and unique knowledge that resides in our bodies, and to nurture a more deeply embodied connection with ourselves, others, and the world. The cards are divided into fifteen themes: ancestors and community, body connection, body sensation, boundaries, breath, containment, culture, five fundamental movements, grounding, mindfulness, movement, posture, the senses, positivity, resources, and the future. Our bodies have different lessons to teach us at different points in our lives, so listeners are encouraged to revisit these enlightening, somatic exercises time and again to glean new insights.

Ring of Fire: High-Stakes Mining in a Lowlands Wilderness

A valuable discovery under the world's second-largest temperate wetland and in the traditional lands of the Cree and Ojibway casts light on the growing conflict among resource development, environmental stewardship, and Indigenous rights When prospectors discovered a gigantic crescent of metal deposits under the James Bay Lowlands of northern Canada in 2007, the find touched off a mining rush, lured a major American company to spend fortunes in the remote swamp, and forced politicians to confront their legal duty to consult Indigenous Peoples about development on their traditional territories. But the multibillion-dollar Ring of Fire was all but abandoned when stakeholders failed to reach a consensus on how to develop the cache despite years of negotiations and hundreds of millions of dollars in spending. Now plans for an all-weather road to connect the region to the highway network are reigniting the fireworks. In this colorful tale, Virginia Heffernan draws on her bush and newsroom experiences to illustrate the complexities of resource development at a time when Indigenous rights are becoming enshrined globally. The Ring of Fire presents an opportunity for Canada to leave behind centuries of plunder and set the global standard for responsible development of minerals critical to the green energy revolution.
