What do Osama bin Laden, H.G. Wells, and the GTA series have to do with Hideo Kojima? A lot more than you'd think In this stunning second installment of The Kojima Code series, author Terry Wolfe walks the reader through the brightest and darkest chapters of Hideo Kojima's career, once again connecting them to a world of influence most fans have no clue about. METAL GEAR SOLID 3 won hearts and minds after the controversy of MGS2, while METAL GEAR SOLID 4 was born out of resignation and death threats. But this time it's not just his industry, career, and personal life that are put under the microscope; this time it's also the politics, polemics, and deep historical divisions that shaped the Japanese game designer's stories. You'll be amazed how much you never noticed before, no matter how much you thought you knew. Once again the interpretation is sharp, bold, and unofficial as it gets. You'll never find a more compelling study of this subject. Not only will this book analyze key themes and messages going back to his early MSX2 days, but it will teach you how to think like an analyst yourself and rise above the noise of everyday critics.Does Hideo Kojima hate America, or love it? Is he a 21st Century prophet, or a student of history? Does it all boil down to pop film references, or are his film references hyperlinks to important cultural questions? The truth is hidden in the lies, because with Hideo Kojima it's always A STEALTH GAME.Also touches on: THE TWIN SNAKES, the MGS1 and 2 graphic novels, METAL GEAR SOLID MOBILE, PROJECT ITOH, METAL GEAR ONLINE, and more

This study brings together the whole story of Revelation (as well as Daniel, Isaiah, and the Gospels, among other prophecies) and shows how together they form a coherent narrative-not just of the end of the world, but of God's immense plan to allow Satan to build a global empire of evil on earth over the centuries.Find out why popular interpretations surrounding the Antichrist, the Tribulation, the Rapture, Zionism, the Millennial Kingdom, the Beast, the Mark, and the Whore of Babylon are all deeply mistaken and in need of re-examination. No tradition is safe when we look closely at the holy text One of the main goals of this book is to show that Revelation is a single, linear story, with no repetition, redundancy, or interchangeable parts. Every seal, trumpet, and vial is unique and has to happen in the exact order they appear. Skeptical? Fantastic. Be prepared to see things in the Bible you've never even thought about before, including a prophecy in Jeremiah which has allowed Satan to believe he will have a final victory over God when Jesus Christ comes back to Jerusalem Oh, and did I mention that most of Revelation happens after the Church is wiped out by Satan? Learn the mystery of the 144,000 elect and prepare yourself for a whole new appreciation of the final book of the Bible.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU BELIEVEMillions of people are seeking unofficial truths today, but what if the "awakening" turns out to be the greatest deception of all?Whether it's Q, aliens, alt-media journalists, DMT, quantum physics, or the radical revisionists claiming language and history are elaborate magic tricks to enslave us, many of the loudest "free thinkers" have suspicious connections that point to a deeper agenda. They hope to destroy traditional thinking not in order to enlighten us, but to make way for a New Age revolution of post-truth horror.This book connects the shady characters and dangerous claims of the intellectual underworld trying to take over the minds of the youth today. It warns readers that just because something exposes and challenges mainstream propaganda, doesn't mean the crazy alternative is true. Psychological warfare groups, alternative reality games, and a planned dialectic of collapse and "reset" lead us to a troubling conclusion: the system we all hate is going to be sacrificed to usher in something even worse.
Into The Cancer Woods: with Jesus, Friends and Scripture

God's Word is constantly under attack, but paradoxically, fundamentalists may be doing more harm than good by defending it as "flawless". Can a love for God blind us to the controversy He creates in His wisdom?From the author of Maybe Everyone Is Wrong: Revelation, Conspiracy, and the Kingdom of Heaven and Fire In The Rabbit Hole comes a new provocative analysis about the state of Christianity in a world of Satanic deception. In this series, Terry Wolfe explores the paradox of worshiping an Almighty Creator who treats the world as His footstool and sends mixed messages even to those who follow His Word faithfully. Why does it have to be this way? God's Fault is partially a lament, partially a defense, and mostly a study. The first book in the series explores the question of the biblical text itself, with its misunderstood history and language. Can we take it as a divinely-inspired work of perfect veracity, or do we need to update our idea of what divine inspiration means? Other questions laid out in this book include: Does faith require ignorance? Can the Bible-believer keep a steady trust in God while admitting the holy text has (even superficial) problems?Were the texts written by God or man? Were they meant to be literal, accurate and free from contradictions? And if it does have some flaws, who should we blame? Isn't God still in control?Have the Bible translators hidden meanings that were in the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek languages? How much are we missing in modern English, and what might it change?Are there really hidden codes in the Bible?What could God have done differently if He really was concerned about everyone learning the Truth?The more we love God, the more we want to understand Him, and fundamentalists believe the best way to do that is to study the Scriptures. But they are often scared of what they find, and run into assumptions. Mystical legends, grand claims, and ridiculous assumptions bog down the fundamentalist agenda to promote the Bible as the key to God's wisdom in an age when technology and scholarship gives the advantage to the skeptic. There's something tragic about fundamentalism that sets the stage for a much deeper analysis of God's plan to lift mankind out of ignorance and teach him what matters. Faith has never been more problematic, but information has never been more available to those who have faith. In order to worship God truthfully, the modern Christian must strip away the old comforts and re-examine theology with a stark acknowledgement that the problems we face are God's fault.

Field education is social work’s signature pedagogy, the essential preparation for professional practice. Its success depends on field educators—field instructors, task supervisors or preceptors, and faculty field liaisons—to guide and assess student learning and maintain the pedagogical integrity of the field experience. Despite its importance and complexity, few resources exist for orienting and preparing field educators.This anthology presents decision cases that depict the actual experiences of social work field educators and students. They showcase the complex dynamics of field education and highlight a range of dilemmas experienced by novice and seasoned field educators. In various combinations, the dilemmas include interpersonal boundaries, emotional reactivity, initiative, expectations, role confusion, inadequate performance, accountability, interpersonal conflict, personal values, and impairment. The cases show how other field educators have navigated the issues that typically arise, with greater or lesser success. The cases portray the intricacy and rewards of this educational role and are selected for their ability to facilitate in-depth discussion among field educators during their initial training or continuing education. Guided discussions of these cases can bolster supervisory competence and confidence. They enable field educators to develop important problem-solving and critical-thinking skills related to their overlapping roles as instructors, supervisors, mentors, advisors, colleagues, and role models, helping them thrive and continue to serve the profession.An accompanying instructor manual provides extensive information for each decision case and also includes guidance for field directors on how to use the case method of teaching and sources for additional information.
