In the year 2125C. E., Joram and his wife, Atarah, are given an assignment to place devices around the North East United States that are designed to soothe a vicious world. Joram narrates this saga, and reaffirms his love for Atarah as he humbly does the will of Shaddai in each adventure. They travel with their son, Terran, throughout the Appalachian Mountains, and are given a special assignment as theyquibit to another dimension to guide the spirits of passed souls into the light. Terran is separated from his parents and matures into his own destiny. A hedonistic Earth has brought the wrath of Shaddai. It is time for Him to intervene. No one knows the day or hour. The New World Order has taken over, and the central government is based in South America. Computer chips are inserted into human brains and mandatory bioengineering is expected for children. Of course, they are taken from parents before six, to be raised by the state. After the State erases personal philosophies, and crushes formal religion, humans are sorted into classes. There are special people called the Meek Ones, descended from the Jewish Essenes, hiding throughout the mountains of Pennsylvania. Protecting their culture is paramount. Earth's astronomers have been tracking an asteroid. The government forbids telling citizens when it will strike, but are told to stay inside. The planet is expected to be obliterated, so many people despair, or turn to their faith for strength. Demons and Angels use this disaster to fight for mans' souls. The Meek Ones travel to high ground for shelter and safety, but soon realize that they are part of the final story of the creation of man. The characters travel through the Kabbalah's Tree of Life, called the Sefirot, containing many levels, or dimensions. Demonic spirits tempt the Meek Ones, to forsake Shaddai and become part of their evil Dominion. Can they resist? Angelic beings interact with humans to bring Shaddai's plan for humanity into fruition. Belial and Amaze, and multitudes of spirits, battle for control of the new universe that is discovered after the impact of the Asteroid and the final battle. Two babies, from different cultures will survive. What will happen to mankind?

“[A] brilliant and creative vindication of democracy . . . a theology of Western culture which remains intellectually unsurpassed.” —Larry Rasmussen in Reinhold Niebuhr: Theologian of Public Life The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness, first published in 1944, is considered one of the most profound and relevant works by the influential theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, and certainly the fullest statement of his political philosophy. Written and first read during the prolonged, tragic world war between totalitarian and democratic forces, Niebuhr’s book took up the timely question of how democracy as a political system could best be defended. Most proponents of democracy, Niebuhr claimed, were “children of light,” who had optimistic but naïve ideas about how society could be rid of evil and governed by enlightened reason. They needed, he believed, to absorb some of the wisdom and strength of the “children of darkness,” whose ruthless cynicism and corrupt, anti-democratic politics should otherwise be repudiated. He argued for a prudent, liberal understanding of human society that took the measure of every group’s self-interest and was chastened by a realistic understanding of the limits of power. It is in the foreword to this book that he wrote, “Man’s capacity for justice makes democracy possible; but man’s inclination to injustice makes democracy necessary.” This edition includes a new introduction by the theologian and Niebuhr scholar Gary Dorrien in which he elucidates the work’s significance and places it firmly into the arc of Niebuhr’s career. “I love him. He’s one of my favorite philosophers.” —President Barack Obama
