What do we really mean when we talk about God, faith, scripture, and salvation?

We Believe takes readers inside the theology of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, exploring how its teachings both intersect with and differ from other Christian traditions.

Phillip M. Graehl examines some of Christianity’s biggest questions through a Latter-day Saint lens: Who is God? What is the role of Jesus Christ? Does revelation continue today? What happens after death? And how should we understand scripture, salvation, temples, priesthood, and eternal families?

Accessible, thoughtful, and grounded in scripture and doctrine, We Believe is for anyone curious about Latter-day Saint theology and the larger questions of Christian belief.

You don’t have to agree with a theology to find it worth understanding.

A murdered mentor. A hidden equation. A secret buried for centuries because some truths are too powerful to be set free.

Nathan Brooks has spent his life solving impossible problems. A brilliant mathematician, he's built his career on finding order where everyone else sees chaos.

Then his mentor is found murdered inside a locked office.

Written in blood beside the body are two words:

THE EQUATION

The research is gone. The evidence has vanished. The only clue the killers missed is an old brass key hidden in Nathan's pocket.

As Nathan follows a trail buried across decades, he uncovers a discovery so profound that The Continuum, a secret organization that has manipulated events from the shadows for centuries, will kill to keep it hidden.

Now they're coming for Nathan.

With the help of a former Continuum operative, he must uncover what his mentor died protecting before The Continuum buries the secret forever.

But the closer he gets, the more terrifying the truth becomes.

What if the world's greatest discovery wasn't hidden because it was dangerous... but because it would change everything we believe about what it means to live?

Perfect for readers of The Da Vinci Code, Dark Matter, and The Rule of Four, The Equation is an intelligent conspiracy thriller where murder, mystery, and philosophy collide in a race to expose the one secret humanity was never meant to know.

In the nearly 100 years since every star disappeared in the StarFall, Earth managed to continue. Sure, there are monsters that appear every now and then. Sure, there is a supernatural illness called the Blight going around that effectively kills hope. But at least there are people who can wield supernatural powers called Starborn.

Arden is not one of these people.

There isn't much Arden can do at this point. Living in the slums with his terminally ill sister marks him as essentially a step below tapeworms in the grand scheme of things. Despised for harboring his sister, a Blight Walker, Arden lives his life trying to stay alive and out of the way.

But it is never that easy. The meagre scraps of food are worse than dirt, his sister is refused an ID, and the local gangster views Arden as his personal punching bag.

Arden's only hope is to become one of the Starborn. Just being a Starborn would be an escape from poverty, the gangs, and the hatred. But you can't just become a Starborn. They are chosen by the Status at random, and Arden has practically a 0 percent chance to be chosen by his Status. After all, there has never been a Starborn from the slums before. It's impossible.

But the impossible is not what can't happen, but rather what shouldn't happen.

And when the impossible arrives, Arden is forced to become impossible himself to protect the few things he has left, including his sister, his life, and something strange that his Status insists on calling a Legacy.

Long-haul trucker Garth Heller has spent years chasing one goal: owning a truck he can finally call his own.

But buried deep within its engine is an ancient evil, waiting for someone willing to turn the key.

What begins as the fulfillment of a lifelong dream soon becomes something far more terrifying. As the truck's influence grows, Garth begins losing pieces of himself until the man behind the wheel is no longer the one making the decisions.

He wakes with blood on his hands and stretches of highway he can't remember driving.

Somewhere along those missing miles, innocent people are dying—and Garth has no way of knowing whether he's the killer or just another victim.

And the Peterbilt's run is far from over. Somewhere out on the open road, it's only a matter of time before someone else climbs behind the wheel.

Blending occult mythology with psychological terror, The Obsidian Rig delivers the creeping dread of Stephen King's Christine with the relentless tension of The Thing.

For now, the answer lies somewhere beyond the next mile marker.

Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness : Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation - Mastering Spirituality Book by Howard Mann

Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness : Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation - Mastering Spirituality Book by Howard Mann
GET THIS BOOK ON AMAZON

1. What is this I’m experiencing?
2. Does anything exist beyond this?
3. Who and what am I?
4. Why am I here?
5. Does God exist?
6. What choices do I have in any of this?
7. What happens when I die?

These are the seven most important questions you’ll ever ask. These seven critical questions, the answers, and ramifications are the focus of Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness: Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation.

Throughout history, great thinkers have all tried to answer these life-altering questions. From ancient shamans to modern spiritual leaders, people have done their best to guide others to the truth.

As many as 4200 religions sprang up in response to the deep desire for spiritual truth. Most people have followed at least one religion in an attempt to find meaning and purpose in life. Many have jumped from one religion to another, desperately searching for answers, only to find the biggest questions remain unanswered.

Some have, in utter frustration, abandoned religion altogether, becoming agnostics or even atheists. While agnostics settle with the idea that these vital questions are unknowable, atheists firmly embrace the idea that there is nothing beyond this. But that requires a tremendous amount of faith, and just because you don’t understand something doesn’t mean it’s unknowable.

Science has evolved into a quite sophisticated philosophy in which all that is unprovable by science does not exist. However, cutting-edge science now recognizes a realm beyond time and space in which all potential exists. Furthermore, this potential only manifests as physical reality when it is observed. So, consciousness plays a role in the creation of physical reality.

Therefore, this non-physical consciousness or Spirit, which so many so-called rational people deny, is responsible for the very physical reality in which they exist. Still, spiritual truth is what it is: infinite.

Because spirituality is not limited by the strict rules and rituals of religion, including atheism, and science, spirituality expands into what would otherwise be prohibited. Spirituality will dramatically improve your physical, mental, and spiritual health and solve the many problems in life that can only be solved on a spiritual level.

If you’re still reading this, then Rebellion and the Return to Soul Consciousness: Transcending Karma, Death, and Reincarnation is for you; you’re ready. Prepare to have your heart and mind opened to the realm of Soul Consciousness. With love and light, Howard

Captain Sophie Allard once lived for the precision and freedom of flying fighter jets. Now, after one decision derails her military career, she is rebuilding her future as a medical student at a Denver trauma center.

Then a dying gunshot victim pulls her close and whispers a cryptic message meant for someone else.

By morning, the dead man’s belongings have vanished. Security footage raises more questions than answers. Sophie is accused of murder, suspended from the hospital, and targeted by professional killers who believe she possesses something powerful enough to expose them.

Her only possible ally is Kai Lovac, a legendary assassin who has spent three years hiding from the same shadow organization now hunting Sophie.

Lovac knows the rules of survival. Trust no one. Leave no witnesses. Never allow emotion to interfere with the mission. But his closest friend died protecting Dossier 1627, a secret report connected to the Third Estate, a covert syndicate that manipulates governments, military institutions, corporations, and criminal organizations from behind the scenes. Lovac needs the information the dying man gave Sophie. Sophie needs Lovac alive long enough to prove she is innocent.

Neither intends to trust the other.

Their uneasy alliance pulls them into a dangerous conspiracy involving hidden laboratories, encrypted messages, secret files, corrupt officials, and assassins bound by their own deadly code. Every answer exposes another betrayal. Every ally carries a hidden agenda. Every step toward the truth places Sophie closer to the organization that has been watching her far longer than she realizes.

As the Third Estate closes in, Sophie must decide how far she will go to reclaim her life and whether the man trained to kill without hesitation is the only person capable of keeping her alive.

Perfect for readers who enjoy intelligent female protagonists, reluctant alliances, secret societies, professional assassins, buried family secrets, and high-stakes suspense where trust can prove more dangerous than betrayal.
