Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, and Jody Lynn Nye, have stood on the shores of their psyches and looked out over the ocean of possibility and wondered "What lies beneath?"

Interest in the end times is increasing, and there are some critical questions every student of end-time prophecy must come to terms with. How should scripture be understood when it speaks of the Antichrist: Literally or allegorically? And if the Antichrist and his persecution are literal events, will the church have to undergo this terrible time of persecution, or will she be removed before the time of great tribulation begins? Theological thinkers across America today are hotly debating these burning questions, yet the Bible could not be more clear as to the answers.

In 1997, scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory found a small leak of radioactive water near their research reactor. Brookhaven was—and is—a world-class lab, and its reactor was the cornerstone of US materials science.

A quarter century later, the episode reveals the dynamics of today's controversies in which fears and the dismissal of science disrupt serious discussion and research of vital issues.

As American interests assumed global proportions after 1945, policy makers were faced with the challenge of prioritizing various regions and determining the extent to which the United States was prepared to defend and support them.

Noah Zarc rockets to Venus on a quest to discover the truth about his past. He refuses to believe his father is really the monster everyone says he is. Could there be valid reasons for everything his father’s done, including abandoning Noah at birth? Together with his two friends, a plucky girl from the Ice Age, and a street-wise kid from back alleys of Mars, Noah searches for answers to secrets everyone refuses to talk about—secrets that have remained hidden for over a thousand years. In the process, he becomes embroiled in a mystery that could have devastating consequences.

Noah Zarc has a life most kids only dream of—traveling through time on an immense spaceship, seeing the wonders of the solar system, and experiencing the vast history of Earth...before everything on the planet was destroyed. His family's mission is to repopulate Earth with life retrieved from the past. His mother and father vanish during an operation to Earth’s ancient past, and together with his brother, sister, and an orphaned girl from the Ice Age, Noah sets out on a quest through space and time to rescue his parents and bring them back to the 31st century.

As battles rage across the solar system, Noah Zarc must work to unite a rag-tag bunch of miners, farmers, and scientists who would rather just live in peace than fight a war which could set humanity back to the dark ages...if not destroy them altogether. With only a time-traveling ship full of animals and a general from the history books (who is more comfortable riding a horse than in a spaceship), the Zarc family has to stand against the full might of a highly trained army of attack-drones, and a fleet of battleships armed with enough firepower to take out an entire planet.

"I can't breathe!" Three words or utterances that significantly altered the political, social, and educational landscape of the consciousness of the United States of America and the world. Many have attributed this contemporary reckoning to the public murder of George Floyd at the hands of Officer Derek Chauvin while three other officers looked on. For others, the mere desire to breathe freely is a struggle under the glare of persistent cultural lack of awareness and cultural destruction.
