Spring 2036. After years of political collapse, economic pressure, and authoritarian drift, the United States is no longer the country the world thought it knew. Following a devastating attack on American soil, the evidence appears to implicate Canada's intelligence services. Allies hesitate, markets panic, and Washington moves to settle old scores.Invasion is a near-future military-political thriller about resistance, loyalty, and the price of survival. As soldiers, spies, politicians, and civilians are pulled into a conflict none of them can escape, each must decide what they are willing to defend and what they are willing to become.At the centre of the storm is Alexander Ashcombe, a former SAS officer living under an assumed name, trying to leave the shadows behind. But history has a long memory, and when war comes to his doorstep, hiding is no longer enough.Grounded, tense, and morally sharp, Invasion is the first book in Canada at War, a series for readers who like intelligent military thrillers, geopolitical danger, and characters forced into impossible choices.For fans of the geopolitical chess matches of Tom Clancy and the gritty, close-quarters black-ops tension of Mark Greaney.

In the period between the councils of Nicea and Chalcedon in the fourth and fifth centuries, the faithful in the churches of the ecclesiastical district of Antioch were the beneficiaries of the ministry of the Word from distinguished pastors.Included in this ministry were homilies on the Old Testament by John Chrysostom and written commentaries by his mentor Diodore and his fellow student Theodore, and later by Theodoret. Though the biblical text was admittedly Jewish in origin, "the text and the meaning are ours," claimed Chrysostom; and the great bulk of extant remains reveals the pastoral priority given to this often obscure material.Students and exegetes of the Old Testament and its individual authors and books will be introduced here to Antioch¹s distinctive approach and interpretation by commentators reading their local form of the Greek Bible.In the course of this survey, readers will gain an insight also into Antioch¹s worldview and its approach to the person of Jesus, to soteriology, morality and spirituality.
