The Abode of Love is Kate Barlow's remarkable account of growing up within the remnants of a religious cult. Protected from the truth about her family's past by a wall of secrecy, it was years before Kate unearthed her grandfather's controversial claim to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ and learned of the rumours that had circulated within the local Somerset community of sexual scandals, 'spiritual brides' and peculiar rituals. This is the gripping story of how one woman pieced together a hidden family history and uncovered a more shocking truth than she ever imagined.

Tyler P. Love was born into a home filled with suppressed emotions and pain. Following his parents divorce, he resorted to drugs, alcohol, and, eventually, one failed suicide attempt. He felt broken, lost, and alone until he found poetry. The written word became his emotional outlet; it also paved the road to his recovery. Welcome to My Humble Abode is a collection of Loves early and more recent poetry, arranged as a piercing look into the mind of a troubled teen. As an adolescent, Love experienced love and lost it. He experienced the deaths of those close to him. He has suffered through depression and survived, with the aid of poetry. Troubled children are not alone. There are always others who have gone through similar tough times, and Love is a prime example. He thought he was alone until he found poetry. No child should ever suffer without hope, so this is what Loves words attempt to give. They reach out to heal. They reach out to embrace.

"Within a few weeks of arriving to live in the Agapenome - a word my sisters loftily informed me mean 'abode of love' in Greek - I had divined the way my strange new home worked, in the way that young children do so instinctively. I had liked it immediately: its vast, mostly unkempt gardens and its chapel, known simply as Eden." When Kate Barlow left postwar London with her mother and two sisters to live with her fierce grandmother in a vast, rambling gothic mansion in the country, she entered a strange and mysterious world where time seemed to have stopped still in the 1900s - and nothing was quite as it seemed. Having lived in a procession of boarding schools, six-year-old 'Kitty' revelled in the sudden freedom of a giant outdoor playground, the endless corners to explore inside the old house, and the company of the eccentric and feisty old women dressed in fashions she had only ever seen in history books. Protected by a wall of secrecy and their isolation from the outside world, it would be years before she and her sisters learned the truth: that what their formidable grandmother resided over was the remains of a bizarre religious cult founded by her grandfather which gained worldwide notoriety when he claimed to be the embodiment of the Holy Ghost. From the pulpit of the Ark of the Covenant, a church built by his adoring followers, he proclaimed that only his followers would be saved from Armageddon. Having taken her grandmother as one of the first of many 'spiritual brides' in spite of having a first wife still living within the community, this charismatic leader was a defrocked clergyman. As illegitimate children named Glory, Power and Life, Kate's mother and two uncles were shunned by the outside community and banned from attending school, a stigma that carried over to Kate and her sisters as they grew up. Interweaving the moving story of a young woman's coming of age with the fascinating tale of a man who managed to convince highly intelligent people, especially prominent women, to give up their lives and careers in his name, THE ABODE OF LOVE is proof that truth is indeed stranger than fiction.

The Abode of Fancy tells the story of a young Dublin man, Simeon Collins - lonely and desperate for love - and the Mad Monk, a mythical god-man, who returns to Ireland, eager to find his long-dead brother Elijah.

Of the many good gifts the Lord has given his church on earth, none exceeds that of his love. The things of this earth are temporary, but "love never ends" (1 Cor. 13:8)—it is a present taste of future glory, made available through communion with the Holy Spirit. In this classic work, Heaven Is a World of Love, New England pastor Jonathan Edwards encourages Christians struggling through the imperfect life here on earth to experience the perfect love of God through an exposition of the biblical foundations for the cause of God's love, the objects of God's love, the enjoyment of God's love, and the fruits of God's love. Each page of pastoral insight will leave readers hungry to experience more of God.
