Hardback. Condition: Very Good. No one knows why the Moai, nearly a thousand megalithic volcanic statues, were carved, transported, and erected or why they were all found facedown by European explorers. In addition, did a Stone Age population of less than 10,000 actually deforest the land, causing environmental devastation? There were as many as 16 million Chilean palms covering 70 percent of the island when the settlers first appeared, but Westerners in the early 18th century were astonished by the total absence of trees. Furthermore, the islanders adopted a new cult based on the worship of birds and in the process, annually elected a sacred birdman in a competition that may have been the most dangerous of its kind anywhere in the world. Though the island is one of the most studied and probed places in the world, Easter Island remains one of the most mysterious places on the planet.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. Greater Works is an awesome testimony of six valiant women of God from different backgrounds, experiences, and walks of life who accepted their call to share how God has transformed their lives. They have penned so graciously their witness of His mighty works. Through prayers that speak volumes of their journey, you will experience how God held, carried, covered, sustained, renewed, and restored them, with each page. You'll feel their strength and growth into the character of God. The personal witnessing of His goodness and His grace is resounding for others to be inspired, delivered and set free by His marvelous, and miraculous works. The unspoken determination impelled these women of God, Shanell Burwell, Rev. Patricia Crawford, Sherri Pinckney Kinloch, Karen Major-Middleton, Sonja Pinckney Rhodes, and Dana P. Richardson to be willing vessels outpouring as of living streams of flowing waters conveyed through the thunderous waves of dreams dared to dream, hurts they overcame, despairs turned into hope, and triumphant victories. They all attest to the pivotal aspects of their lives that once spiraled through rising currents that were strengthened through their persistent prayers, by trusting God to bring them through their journeys of how He brought them over, through and out. Their prayers testify to the great work God continues to do in their lives, as stated in Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. These women did not allow fear to stall them but to drive them into their purpose-driven lives.…
