When Heaven and Earth Collide is an investigation into what went wrong in the American South in regard to race and religion—and how things can be and are being made right. Why, in a land filled with Christian churches, was there such racial oppression and division? Why didn’t white evangelicals do more to bring racial reconciliation to the South during the 19th and 20th centuries? These questions are asked and answered through an exploration of history, politics, economics, philosophy, and social and theological studies that uncovers the hidden impetus behind racism and demonstrates how we can still make many of the same errors today—just perhaps in different ways. The investigation finally leads us in hopeful directions involving how to live out the better way of Jesus with an eye on heaven in a world still burdened and broken under the sins of the past.

Imagine if you woke up tomorrow and realized that your dreams and, yes, even your nightmares were actual events in the lives of others! Others that you didn't know and had never met before! Get ready to embark on a true life-changing story of supernatural intervention in the lives of a small group of happy-go-lucky individuals. This small band of friends was about to unknowingly run headfirst into a mystical power that would change the course of their lives forever. Come along as the revelation of the past becomes the reality of the present, as the lines between their lives and the destiny of the universe become forever entangled! Suddenly they are startled by the uncloaking of a world that few have ever seen. Remarkably, they are allowed a view into the realm of an unforeseen force, a force that has always been watching and waiting, a realm of unlimited power and knowledge. This account is a testimony of how in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, our everyday lives can be changed. Are the things that we perceive as reality simply on loan to us by the one who controls the destiny of the universe? The one who exists in a world that knows no borders or time constraints? Everything that we consider to be our own personal life, even our extremely private thoughts, can be snatched away from us in the very moment, when heaven and earth collide!

With this book Immanuel Velikovsky first presented the revolutionary results of his 10-year-long interdisciplinary research to the public, founded modern catastrophism - based on eyewitness reports by our ancestors - shook the doctrine of uniformity of geology as well as Darwin's theory of evolution, put our view of the history of our solar system, of the Earth and of humanity on a completely new basis - and caused an uproar that is still going on today. Worlds in Collision - written in a brilliant, easily understandable and entertaining style and full to the brim with precise information - can be considered one of the most important and most challenging books in the history of science. Not without reason was this book found open on Einstein's desk after his death. For all those who have ever wondered about the evolution of the earth, the history of mankind, traditions, religions, mythology or just the world as it is today, Worlds in Collision is an absolute MUST-READ!

“One of the most important books of Vietnamese American and Vietnam War literature...Moving, powerful.” —Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Sympathizer In these pages, Le Ly Hayslip—just twelve years old when U.S. helicopters landed in her tiny village of Ky La—shows us the Vietnam War as she lived it. Initially pressed into service by the Vietcong, Le Ly was captured and imprisoned by government forces. She found sanctuary at last with an American contractor and ultimately fled to the United States. Almost twenty years after her escape, Le Ly found herself inexorably drawn back to the devastated country and loved ones she’d left behind, and returned to Vietnam in 1986. Scenes of this joyous reunion are interwoven with the brutal war years, creating an extraordinary portrait of the nation, then and now—and of one courageous woman who held fast to her faith in humanity. First published in 1989, When Heaven and Earth Changed Places was hailed as an instant classic. Now, some two decades later, this indispensable memoir continues to be one of our most important accounts of a conflict we must never forget.
