In Native American history, there are many legends about UFOs, gods, the paranormal and aliens. There has always been a connection between Native Americans and beings from other parts of the universe, referred to as Star People. Perhaps due to familiarity with celestial fixtures, it has been easier for Native Americans to relate events they have experienced on earth with things such as the formation of the Pleiades. It is not hard to believe they would identify an event with a star, being the nature and history of tribes was to exist outdoors. The night sky would be paid much more attention by one who did not live indoors.Through the many legends and tribes you can find instances where natives are either rescued or helped by gods or Star Beings. The Pleiades is the basis of the creation of the Hopi Indians. The Dakota also speak of 'the abode of the ancestors' or Tiyami as a place of their origin. Other native oral histories, or legends, speak of an origin, in the stars generally, or other constellations. The Cree did not originate from human beings but from people from the constellations who later became humans. While others like the Lakota tell stories of beings from the skies.Regardless of the tribe or the whether the interaction is through a god or star people, there is proof that the ancient people of North America believed they have been visited by unexplainable beings from the heavens and beyond. The stories in the collection tell of many different tribes and their experiences and the outcome of walking with these beings. From experiences with aliens, to the dead rising in spirit form, this book will cover a wide range of stories of the paranormal.

Native American history like others in history was scattered with stories of war. Whether it be the fighting of other tribes or conflicts with white settlers, their history was filled with bloodshed. In the days before the arrival of guns, battles could last days, and casualties could number in the hundreds. While eastern Indians fought almost exclusively to achieve retribution, southwestern Indians clashed with their neighbors both to avenge previous wrongs and to loot them of material possessions. In time tribal Warfare became more individualistic and therefore less bloody. It was more of an opportunity for young boys to acquire respect through demonstrations of courage. It became more honorable for a warrior to make contact with his enemy (count "coup") or steal his horse than to kill him. In This book is a collection of war related stories and others that create a history of the North American Indians. While the stories are sometimes graphic and contain much killing, they depict a true vision of history.Among the stories included in the collection are: The Origin of Medicine, The Warlike Seven, The Warrior of High Cliff, Warriors of the Rainbow, The War Medicine, The False Warriors of Chilhowee, The Last Shawano Invasion, The Shawano Wars, Hatcino do 's Escape from The Cherokee, Escape of The Seneca Boys, Two War Trails, The Death of Head Chief and Young Mule, A War Between the Alabama And the Choctaw, War between Senecas and Cherokees, The Legend of the Apache Tear, Origin of the Sacred Arrow, A Widow's Revenge, The First War, and many more.
What begins as a simple, bittersweet tale about a man turned into a polar bear, grandly unfolds into a rich, mythical adventure in the best-selling book series Rise Of The Snow Queen. Based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, author G.W. Mullins expands on this story creating a new mythology that takes readers into the world of snow and ice. In part two, the story develops long before the adventures of Gerda and Kai. It takes readers to a remote mountain village where winter claims lives at the Snow Queen's command. The story goes back to the Mirror and how it cracked, sending its shards into the world to infect the innocent. This take on the story, embarks on a much more adult tone with the mood turning rather sinister as the Snow Queen battles to obtain the mirror and rule them all. Rise Of The Snow Queen Two - War Of The Witches, is a dark fairy tale that unfolds to a conclusion you won't expect to see coming.

Two thousand years ago, Jesus told His disciples, "Go into all the world...". However, since then, times have changed... and the world has changed. Yet, how the church approaches what has come to be called "The Great Commission" has, for the most part, not changed. The task remains unfinished, and there is still much debate about why and how to keep this mission effort going. Just in the last few decades, the church has spent billions on mission projects, and thousands of faithful missionaries have gone out serving under this Great Commission... but to what end? Written for pastors, mission leaders and aspiring missionaries, this volume brings refreshing clarity to the core issues surrounding Christian missions. G. W. Steel offers straightforward biblical exegesis, astute observations, compelling stories and engaging cultural insights gained from nearly 20 years working throughout Asia and the Middle East. Steel summarizes the fruit of the church's mission work and then addresses: What exactly did Jesus teach and expect His followers to do? What was His primary message, and therefore...? What is the church's core mission? How can this mission be successful in our post-Christian, multicultural world? What kind of people are suitable for this mission, and what skills do they need? If you are asking these questions or wrestling with the implications of what Jesus taught and the first apostles practiced, open the pages of this paradigm-shifting book to explore scriptural and culturally relevant answers to these burning issues. Dig in and discover your part in fulfilling God's pleasures for His church and how you can join Him in what He is doing in the world today G.W. Steel is first and foremost a disciple of Jesus. He is also a beloved son, husband, father, grandfather, mentor and avid sailor. Steel lived in SE Asia and has traveled to over 50 countries. He holds a Master's Degree in Organization Development and Training, and is committed to equipping cross-cultural teams from Asia and the United States to proclaim the fame of God's Name in unreached nations.
