The history of Christianity if filled with misfits. This collection of sermons intruces us to heretics and mystics from the very earliest church to the present day, including the Gnostics, Origen, Julian of Norwich, Michael Servitus, Emanuel Swedenborg, Soren Kierkegaard, Madame Blavatsky, Teilhard de Chardin and many, many more. With humor and compassion for these misunderstood characters, John Mabry explores their teachings and how they can speak to us today, helping us be better people of faith, regardless of one's denomination or even religion. Mabry holds a PhD in World Religions and serves as co-pastor of Grace North Church in Berkeley, CA.

An evil magician is planning to take over the world.He thinks his enemies are among the living…When Lester Furnival and her friend Evelyn die in a plane crash, they find themselves walking through a ghostly, surreal, twilight London.Lester's fiancé is an artist, who is obsessed with images of a city so bright and true that he can't paint anything else.The scandalous magician Simon Leclerc has sacrificed his own child to gain control over this world…and the next.As Lester and Evelyn discover what has happened to them, they are pulled in different directions-one toward isolation and despair and the other toward a sacrificial self-giving that, to her great surprise, saves even her.All Hallows' Eve is Charles Williams' last and greatest novel. The grandfather of the urban fantasy genre, Williams novel is poignant, relevant, and chilling. Along with C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Williams formed The Inklings, a society of writers in Oxford, England who changed the world with their mythopoetic vision.

"What is here presented is a work of darkness." Yet it is no other than what with great tenderness and circumspection was tendered to men of the highest dignity in Europe, kings and princes, and by all listened unto for a while with good respect. By some gladly embraced and entertained for a long time, the fame whereof being carried unto Rome, it made the Pope to better himself, no knowing what the event of it might be, and how much it might concern him. And indeed, filled all men, learned and unlearned in most places with great wonder and astonishment: all which things will be showed and made good in the contents of this book, by unquestionable records and evidences. And therefore I make no question but there will be men enough found in the world whose curiosity will lead them to read what I think is not to be paralleled in that kind by any book that has been set out in any age to read (from the preface). This occult classic, rare and long unavailable, is a reprint from the 1659 edition, once again in print in a handsome new format from Golem Media.

The famous critical edition of the Apostolic Fathers edited by J. B. Lightfoot. Texts are presented in both Greek and English, each preceded by an introduction. A must for anyone interested in early Christian studies.

"The episocpi vagantes of the present day are grouped into four main streams of succession...each present peculiar features and problems of their own, and not only this, but their representatives are men who differ widely from each other."-from the INTRODUCTION. The independent Catholic movement has branches-both official and unofficial-all over the world. They constitute one of the most interesting phenomena in Christian history, a movement worthy of greater visibility and academic attention. This is the book that made the first attempt at chronicling this disperate movement, from an Anglican perspective, now back in print for the first time in decades from Apocryphile Press.

The Old Catholic movement is the best kept secret in Christendom. The fact that there is a valid (if "illicit") form of catholicism that is independent of Rome and which values local control seems scandalous to some and a cause for delight or even relief in others. The Old Catholic churches have branches-both official and unofficial-all over the world. They constitute one of the most interesting and diverse movements in Christian history, a movement worthy of greater visibility and academic attention. Here is the story of this unlikely legacy, from its beginnings in the fourteenth century through 1977-now back in print after twenty-eight years from Apocryphile Press.
