Hellstromism
by Robert A. NelsonRobert A. Nelson’s authoritative treatise on the life and sensational mind reading feats of Axel Hellstrom, a German muscle reader, mentalist and stage magician who redefined the art of muscle reading.Hellstrom was a man who baffled many of the brightest scientific and magical minds of his time by singlehandedly taking this ability to incredible, new heights—so much so, in fact, that for many magicians his name remains synonymous with “Contact” and “Non-Contact” Mind Reading—“Hellstromism!”Nelson, the long-time professional mentalist and mentalism/magic dealer, was personally coached by Hellstrom before the celebrated mind reader’s death.In this book, he painstakingly explains the inner workings of Hellstrom’s miracles. Every phase is covered in detail: from choosing and working with subjects to suggested performance routines.You will learn everything you need to know to begin developing your own abilities, as well as what is required to take your performance to the next level.A truly informative and fascinating read, written by an expert who was sincere and passionate about the possibilities “Hellstromism” has to offer.Originally published 1935, this edition contains the author’s additional chapter titled “Later day experiments in Hellstromism,” dated April 15, 1941.
Helmholtz, Cohen, and Frege on Progress and Fidelity: Sinning Against Science and Religion (Philosophical Studies in Contemporary Culture #27)
by Teri MerrickThis book examines the views of Hermann Helmholtz, Hermann Cohen and Gottlob Frege in reaction to the epistemic crises induced by rapid changes in 19th century scientific practice. Besides addressing longstanding interpretive puzzles of interest to Frege scholars, the book extracts precepts for rationally responding to paradigm shifts in scientific and religious traditions. Cohen’s work in particular is held up as an example of wisely navigating epistemic and hermeneutical crises in science and religion. The book will appeal to philosophers and historians of science or religion, especially to those concerned with the epistemic challenges posed by Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

Help Me, Jesus! I Have Nothing to Wear!: The Go-To Guide for All Shapes and Sizes
by Shari BraendelIn Help Me, Jesus! I Have Nothing To Wear! Shari Braendel teaches you how to finally love the body God gave you and how to look your best—from discovering your body shape and learning to dress it, to finding your best colors, to wearing jeans that flatter your thighs and hips, to finding the best places to shop to suit your unique personal style. Many of us are watching reality TV shows to get a clue on how to dress right and look good. We hungrily purchase fashion magazines any time the cover article has something to do with how we can hide our despised body parts. We make mad dashes to the local department store to pick up the new anti-wrinkle cream Dr. Oz promised will take ten years away from our face. We care about how we look. Why is that? Because we’re women, and women love to look and feel good. God made us that way. And this is not a bad thing. In fact, it’s a wonderful thing! God loves beauty. We should reflect his image by remembering that fashion meets faith the minute we decide what to wear each day. How we dress reveals to the world who we are, on the inside. This comprehensive style guide will show you how to look and feel your best, no matter what day it is or what the occasion. And it will stop you from screaming at the top of your lungs, “Help me, Jesus! I have nothing to wear!”
Help My Unbelief
by Barnabas PiperGod is infinite, beyond our understanding--yet He chooses to reveal Himself in ways that spark questions rather than settling them all. Instead of making Himself smaller, God invites us into a larger faith. One that has room for questions, victories, failures, and mystery. Because belief in an infinite God by finite humans is an act of exploration ... a process of learning--and then embracing--what we can't learn but can trust. Discover the God who not only desires our belief but actually welcomes our curiosity.
Help My Unbelief, 20th Anniversary Edition
by Fleming Rutledge&“Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!&” Nothing has motivated Fleming Rutledge in her preaching more than addressing people&’s struggles with doubt. Now with a new preface from the author, Help My Unbelief speaks directly to the &“faithful doubters&” and the &“unbelieving believers&” of the church who wrestle with questions and uncertainties about Christian faith. What if I&’m not very religious? Why isn&’t it enough just to be good and loving? How can I respond to an abstraction like the Trinity? Isn&’t Christianity outmoded? Can we still believe in the Resurrection today? Fleming Rutledge approaches these questions with a combination of pastoral warmth and theological fearlessness, aligning herself with those seeking answers and pointing readers toward the One who creates and sustains faith.
