The Backside Of Calvary

The American invasion of Iraq was largely governed by faith-based policy. The "shock and Awe" strategy, alongside a grossly mismanaged occupation, led to the loss of American lives. Faith-Based War presents an analysis of the imperialist Christian militarism behind the Bush Administration. America’s self-perception as God’s Chosen is examined and its catastrophic results detailed. The book offers an ethical, political and theological perspective on the perversion of Christian teaching behind the war in Iraq and the moral culpability of the American empire.

Lightning Lord: A mysterious thief appears at a museum robbery garbed like a medieval druid. This “monk” exhibits a Zeus-like ability to summon thunderbolts from the heavens. Shortly thereafter, a beautiful woman approaches Calvary. This alluring stranger says that she’s traveled back in time to aid in capturing the “lightning burglar.” Julia Percy and her team are soon caught up in a web of betrayal and deceit, where nothing is as it seems, and few people are who they claim to be. Lifestone: William Lavert has, meanwhile, gone off alone to confront a separate crisis. At a secluded cabin in the Colorado Rockies, he hopes to find the answer for why certain individuals, including his sister, have begun aging rapidly after encountering a mystical stone tablet. Limbo: These two disparate cases conspire to set Percy and Lavert upon a fateful collision course where either they’ll fall madly in love, or else wind up killing each other.

"The Other Side of Calvary" tells of spiritual things seen in heaven. The angels see the Lord as he goes pass the flaming sword restoring the tree of life. Man sees Calvary as they crucify Jesus. He is King of kings. (Christian)

"A faith-based policy governed key features of the American invasion of Iraq, including the choice of a self-defeating 'Shock and Awe' strategy, and a grossly mismanaged occupation. A religious rationale likewise blinded devotees of the White House torture program to the predictable cost in American lives, and the damage to America's moral standing." "The Bush Administration embraced an imperialist Christian militarism that unites elements of classic Puritan tradition with the mythology of the Western frontier. Faith-Based War brings into focus this dangerous perversion of Christian teaching, and details its catastrophic results."--Jacket.
