Sea Lions in the Desert will change how Christians approach prosperity in the 21st Century. This unique addition to Christian thought on poverty and wealth brings Biblical balance to a hi-jacked doctrine and lays a foundation for supernatural exploits. Heaven's treasury is indeed accessible, however, access isn't granted to just anyone at anytime. Mark teaches us how our identity in God, Kingdom priority and character formation can unlock supernatural realms of provision and prosperity for any believer. Mark explains how prosperity is not only necessary for an end-times harvest, it is a calling to be embraced by every individual follower of Christ. Sea Lions in the Desert explains why so many Christians struggle financially, uncovering ungodly beliefs and practices that block the flow of Heaven's resources. If you are a Christian with a desire to be great, a passion to leave a legacy, and a vision that exceeds your current financial reality, this book is a must read! Learn how to build a foundation that will withstand the temptations that come with prosperity and prepare a financial wine skin that can contain the blessings that God desires to bring you for the sake of your destiny and the salvation of the world. Expand your vision and bring your dreams to the next level. Turn your "someday" into a "certain future" with Mark T. Whitten's Sea Lions in the Desert: Why Christians Fail to Prosper and How Identity, Priority and Character are Keys to Accessing Heaven's Treasury.

From the Galapagos to the depths of Patagonia and up along the stark desert coast of Chile, Listening to Sea Lions’ empathic ethnography carries the reader directly into the heart of the ocean world of Latino coastal people. Sea lions are the fellow denizens in nature who share the perpetual changes and are seen as metaphoric selves. Meltzoff uses storytelling rather than explicit theory to help explain local struggles and survival strategies wrought by extreme El Niño events and shifting political climates. Embedded within the six multi-sited ethnographies are global themes in coastal communities, from boom-and-bust fisheries to the rivalries among fisheries, tourism, conservation interests. The overall picture is sea-change and impermanence as a local way of life by the ocean.

What would happen if people all around the world stayed inside, away from animals' habitats? Twelve fascinating real-life stories of creatures around the globe who reclaimed their habitat during the COVID-19 quarantine show animal lovers and aspiring citizen scientists how to help wildlife by fighting habitat loss. With the skies, roads, and waterways clear and quiet during the COVID-19 pandemic, the natural world seemed to return to an earlier, wilder state. Animals crossed boundaries that people had set over centuries, reclaiming ancient habitats. From sea lions who clambered into a parking lot in Argentina to deer who wandered in a Japanese subway to lions lounging in the middle of South African roads to kangaroos who bounced through a shopping district in Australia, this thoroughly researched, stunningly illustrated book tells the stories of these newly footloose creatures -- and describes what the COVID-19 "pause" taught scientists about how ecosystems and wildlife can rebound if the right environmental conditions are achieved.
