"'Can a nation disappear forever?' . . . In] a tale of collective loss, political revolution and the individual quest for self-determination . . . Kim brings us the souls caught up on the ground of this larger drama." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune In 1904, facing war and the loss of their nation, more than a thousand Koreans leave their homes for the promise of land in unknown Mexico. After a long sea voyage, these emigrants -- thieves and royals, priests and soldiers, orphans and entire families -- discover that they have been sold into indentured servitude. Aboard the ship, the orphan Ijeong fell in love with a nobleman's daughter; separated when the hacendados claim their laborers, he vows to find her. Then, after years of working in the punishing heat of the henequen fields, the Koreans are caught in the midst of a Mexican revolution. A tale of star-crossed love, political turmoil, and the dangers of seeking freedom in a new world, Black Flower is an epic story based on a little-known moment in history. "Kim is at the leading edge of a new breed of South Korean writers." -- Philadelphia City Paper "Spare and beautiful." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Readers who remember the historical fiction of Thomas B. Costain, Zo Oldenbourg and Anya Seton will appreciate Kim's] extensive research and empathic imagination." -- Kirkus ReviewsBinding Type: Paperback

Awesome Beyond Mere Words
Format: Paperback
Unaware of its full content within, I found this book has revolutionized my inner self's awareness: of WHO I am in Christ, and Who's Inside Me and has been since accepting Christ! This book helped to 'show the way' how; to convert from academic "knowing" thinking to "Spirit-led living." This is a major transitional shift, but one God wants, the Spirit led me to, and what my prayers had been asking for all along without MY-understanding even realizing it! until I 'let go of MY-understanding and let Holy Spirit have the upper hand. It's really a "tuff job!" but one 'worth fighting for'; by letting go. With His 'Power' within, there's no other way but UP.
I strongly recommend this book to those seeking a closer/deeper connection with Jesus Christ and God's Holy Spirit.
The wording is so very easy to read, yet its depth very profound.

The Supernatural You
I was pleasantly surprised by 'The Supernatural You' by Brenda Kunneman. She exposes you to the power that every believer has inside of them, but is rarely teached in the average church. She talks about her growing up and how she learned about this supernatural power. Very practical tips on how to access your hidden power. I would recommend it to other Christians that want to go deeper in God.
Ironically - I hit "Buy This Book" by accident. Now I realize it wasn't an accident....

Biblically sound, step-by-step instruction
Format: Paperback
If you're ready to challenge the current, prevalent (and wrong!) paradigm, this book may be for you: Yes, it IS possible for modern-day, born-again Christians to live in miracles as did the first apostles after receiving the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost) at Pentecost. This book guides you through the process of stepping into that full, abundant life promised by God.
