In her village, a neighbor tells her that her mother, a nurse, was called in to help with the many bodies piling up at the hospital.

Perhaps it wasn’t the best idea to choose the very same competition where said best friend, Trina Low, died. It might be even though Najwa’s trying to change, she’s not ready to give up Trina just yet. But the same can’t be said for all the other competitors. With Trina, the Scrabble Queen herself, gone, the throne is empty, and her friends are eager to be the next reigning champion. All’s fair in love and Scrabble, but all bets are off when Trina’s formerly inactive Instagram starts posting again, with cryptic messages suggesting that maybe Trina’s death wasn’t as straightforward as everyone thought. And maybe someone at the competition had something to do with it. As secrets are revealed and the true colors of her friends are shown, it’s up to Najwa to find out who’s behind these mysterious posts—not just to save Trina’s memory, but to save herself.

Find out if you're brave enough for Tales from Cabin 23--the thrilling new series created by award-winning authors Justina Ireland and Hanna Alkaf. Sean had been through enough to know that one tragedy leads to another. Like when his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and her expensive treatment caused his parents to declare bankruptcy and lose their cozy Texas home. For a while, the three of them lived out of the family van until Sean's parents sent him to temporarily stay with his aunt and cousin, Zeke, up in Victorvale, Massachusetts. But what Sean didn't know was that the classic seaside town sat on an eroding coastline where houses have fallen into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean to never reappear. Still, when Sean and Zeke spot Donut, a missing local cat, fleeing into one of the abandoned cliffside mansions, they don't hesitate to run after her. Upon discovering Donut's litter of kittens, one of the boys' schoolmates, Jenny, appears and warns them about being in the house. Before they can rescue the little family, the ground rumbles, the cliffside crumbles, and when the dust clears, Sean and Jenny find themselves in the remains of the mansion, sandwiched between the ocean and a sheer wall of rock. What's worse--Zeke is trapped below them... or so they thought. Now, they must escape before the cold water--and whatever lives within it--reaches them.

Henkeä älkää sammuttako

Henkeä älkää sammuttako

Hannu Vuorinen

Päivä

sidottu
Hengen palo on kuin maasto- tai metsäpalo", Hannu Vuorinen kirjoittaa. "Se vaikuttaa kaikkeen. Sitä on mahdotonta rajoittaa. Ilman Pyhää Henkeä ei voi olla kristitty, ilman Hengen vaikutusta ei voi kääntyä ja uskon kautta liittyä Kristukseen." Kukaan Raamattua lukeva ei voi kieltää Pyhän Hengen keskeistä roolia Jumalan todellisuuden välittäjänä ja aikaansaajana. Raamatun ensi jakeista aina sen viimeisiin lukuihin kohtaamme Jumalan Hengen ja hänen työnsä. Kristillinen elämä on ollut aina "hengen elämää". Puhumme vielä nykyäänkin "hengellisistä" asioista, kun tarkoitamme kristilliseen uskoon liityviä asioita. Pyhään Henkeen liittyy kuitenkin paljon ristiriitaisia käsityksiä. Suhtautuminen vaihtelee melkein täydellisestä vaikenemisesta äärimmäisen "karismaanikon" ylipursuavaan intoiluun. Kirjassaan Hannu Vuorinen pohtii kansantajuisesti ja innostavasti Pyhän Hengen olemusta, merkitystä ja vaikutusta - etenkin vaikutusta: "Minä uskon Jumalaan, joka on Henki, tuli ja valo. Ilman Henkeä olemme kuolleita ja kylmiä. Ilman Hengen paloa ei ole rakkautta Jumalaan ja lähimmäisiin. Älkäämme sammuttako tulta!"
