One knock at the door, and Stefania has a choice to make... It is 1943, and for four years, sixteen-year-old Stefania has been working for the Diamant family in their grocery store in Przemysl, Poland, singing her way into their lives and hearts. She has even made a promise to one of their sons, Izio -- a betrothal they must keep secret since she is Catholic and the Diamants are Jewish. But everything changes when the German army invades Przemysl. The Diamants are forced into the ghetto, and Stefania is alone in an occupied city, the only one left to care for Helena, her six-year-old sister. And then comes the knock at the door. Izio's brother Max has jumped from the train headed to a death camp. Stefania and Helena make the extraordinary decision to hide Max, and eventually twelve more Jews. Then they must wait, every day, for the next knock at the door, the one that will mean death. When the knock finally comes, it is two Nazi officers, requisitioning Stefania's house for the German army. With two Nazis below, thirteen hidden Jews above, and a little sister by her side, Stefania has one more excruciating choice to make. This remarkable tale of courage and humanity, based on a true story, is now a Reese's Book Club YA Pick!

Experiencing God in the Hidden Place by Vickie Bennett Pdf

In The Hidden Place, Vickie takes you on a rare journey behind the walls of a communist orphanage and the harsh realities of everyday life as an orphan. A journey that began with her “Yes” to God, taking her and her family to China, to serve the orphans living there. Vickie will share stories of the children she met, the brutal effects suffering and injustice had on them, and her determination to right the wrongs of injustice to orphans. Being sold out and obedient to everything God asked resulted in a ministry dripping in God’s favor and extravagant provision. Until one fateful night when a single event would change everything, and her life would never be the same. What do you do when: You know God could have changed or stopped something, but He didn’t? Nothing makes sense? You know you had faith, yet God didn’t answer your prayer? There is no happily-ever-after? In your season of deep grief and sorrow, you ask, “God, where are you and who is really in control of this battle? Those were the questions on Vickie’s heart when God answered her with His own question, “Will you come away with me to the Hidden Place?” In the Hidden Place, you will not only learn the answers to these questions, but you will experience God and encounter His Presence in ways you never have before as He asks you the same question: “Will you come away with me to the Hidden Place?”

The Place of the Hidden Moon by Edward C. Dimock Pdf

The Vaisnava-sahajiya cult that arose in Bengal in the sixteenth century was an intensely emotional attempt to reconcile the sensual and the ascetic. Exploring the history and doctrine of this cult, Edward C. Dimock, Jr., examines the works of numerous poets who are the source of knowledge about this sect. Dimock examines the life of the saint Caitanya, the mad Baul singers, the doctrines of Tantrism, the origins of the figure of Radha, and the worship of Krishna. His study will appeal to students of the history of religion as well as of Indian culture. This edition includes a new Foreword by Wendy Doniger. "This is a magnificent book—painstakingly researched and gracefully written. . . . Professor Dimock's book is one of the most rewarding and stimulating studies to appear in recent years."—G. Richard Weldon, Journal of Asian Studies
