Texas Book Festival 2023: Author Bernie L. Calaway Dazzles with Five Literary Works, Including "History and Mystery"


Austin, Texas Nov 9, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - If you've ever found yourself lying awake at night, pondering the mysteries of life beyond time, dreamt of the enigmatic creatures of Revelation, or felt the frustration of not knowing how to properly wield an athame, then you're in for an extraordinary literary treat. Renowned author Bernie L. Calaway is set to captivate readers with the first volume of his groundbreaking series, History, and Mystery: The Complete Eschatological Encyclopedia of Prophecy, Apocalypticism, Mythos, and Worldwide Dynamic Theology, which is sure to become an indispensable resource for scholars, teachers, and curious mind everywhere.

This visionary work comprises four volumes of exhaustive information, featuring over 10,000 meticulously defined words and phrases, 60 exploratory essays, and mini-sections connecting the intricate world of theological concepts. With History and Mystery, readers will embark on an enlightening journey through the realms of prophecy, apocalypticism, mythos, and worldwide dynamic theology, ultimately becoming the best-informed readers in their neighborhood and beyond.

Bernie Calaway, a retired Navy chaplain and biblical scholar, brings a unique perspective to this monumental undertaking. His rich background and expertise in theology and biblical studies have paved the way for this unparalleled encyclopedia. A native Texan, Bernie quickly realized his calling was in ministry, not in cotton farming on the high plains. In active retirement, he has channeled his passion into writing, drawing, and preserving the tranquility of his backstoop from curious squirrels. Mr. Calaway is no stranger to the literary world, having authored eight nonfiction books, with almost all of them published by Authors Press, and two captivating collections of fables, including 101 Fun Fables. His existing titles, such as Revealing the Revelation, Discernment from Daniel (also featured at the 2023 Texas Book Festival), Operation Revelation: A Teen's Guide to Earth's Final Curtain (co-authored with another author), and Oracles from Olivet: The Eschatological Jesus, have garnered acclaim for their depth and insight. However, his latest creation, History and Mystery stands as a five-volume magnum opus, setting new standards in the exploration of biblical terms.

As a testimony to Bernie Calaway's significant contributions to literature, four additional works by the author will also grace the 2023 Texas Book Festival. This extraordinary showcase of his writing prowess will undoubtedly make the event a hub for those seeking to explore theology, biblical prophecy, and eschatology.

Chwalinska fights back to win Wuhan Open

WUHAN, China — Maja Chwalinska pulled off an impressive comeback to defeat Britain’s Sonay Kartal, 2-6, 6-4, 6-2, and claim the first tour-level title of her career at the Wuhan Open on Sunday. The Polish 16th seed trailed by a set and a break before she turned things around to become just the fourth player to win her maiden tour-level title at a WTA 1000 event. She joins Naomi Osaka (2018 Indian Wells), Bianca Andreescu (2019 Indian Wells) and Victoria Mboko (2025 Montreal) in that exclusive club. The 25-year-old Chwalinska started the year ranked 146 in the world and provided one of the biggest surprises of the season when she reached the French Open final as a qualifier in June. “(This title) tastes very sweet. I feel like I still don’t realize that I won,” Chwalinska said in the post-match press conference. “But it feels special, because after French Open, it was obviously amazing, but then I had some tough moments. I feel like people also were very rough towards me. And it took a toll on me as well. “I’m just a human. But I kept working really hard and I’m just very grateful that my work paid off.” The talented lefty will now rise to a career-high No.11 in the world, making her top-20 debut when the new rankings are released on Monday. “I feel like my energy level was very low at the beginning, but also Sonay played amazing,” added Chwalinska. “Gradually I started to play much better and much more aggressive. Also, the depth on my shots improved. “I feel what I’m proud of is the fighting spirit that I had. I just wanted to fight for every single ball and hoped that things would click at some point.” Kartal, who was contesting her second tour event back from a six-month hiatus due to a spinal stress fracture, entered Wuhan ranked 170 in the world but will return to the top 50 after reaching the first WTA 1000 final of her career.

Tampa Bay Rays one win from World Series return

LOS ANGELES — The Tampa Bay Rays moved to within one win of a return to the World Series on Sunday (Monday in Manila) after defeating the Cleveland Guardians, 3-1, to edge into a crucial 3-2 lead in their MLB playoff series. A dazzling pitching performance from starter Drew Rasmussen laid the foundation for another deserved victory for the Rays, who had leveled the best-of-seven American League Championship Series on Saturday. Rasmussen restricted the Guardians to one run and four hits through seven innings with six strikeouts. Rays catcher Liam Hicks paid tribute to Rasmussen’s gem after the win. “He’s an ace, it’s as simple as that,” Hicks said. “He rises to the occasion and no moment is ever too big for him. I don’t think there’s anyone we’d rather have on the mound. “He’s such a hard worker. He has a plan and then he just executes.” The Rays, meanwhile, pounced on a string of early opportunities to edge into a lead that proved decisive. Tampa Bay’s bats caused problems for Guardians starter Parker Messick in the first inning, with Yandy Diaz getting the ball rolling with a leadoff double. Messick soon found himself in a bases loaded jam and walked Jonny DeLuca to surrender a run that gave Tampa Bay an early 1-0 lead. The Rays doubled their advantage in the second inning when Jonathan Aranda drove in a run for Ben Williamson. Messick was promptly pulled from the mound after 57 pitches to leave Cleveland improvising a bullpen game. Tampa Bay continued to make the most of the scoring chances that came their way, with Hicks singling off Guardians reliever Tim Herrin in the top of the third to make it 3-0. With Rasmussen in complete control, the Guardians had to wait until the sixth inning to get on the board, outfielder Steven Kwan coming home on Chase DeLauter’s ground out to first base. The Guardians raised hopes of a rally in the ninth, when Rays closer Bryan Baker gave up a leadoff walk to start the inning. But Baker coolly held firm to claim his 35th consecutive save and a Rays win. Tampa Bay — one of only five Major League Baseball teams never to win a World Series title — now need only one more win to book their third appearance at the Fall Classic after losing in 2008 and 2020. Game 6 of the series takes place at Tampa Bay’s Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg on Monday. “There’s no place we’d rather be playing in a must-win game than at home,” Hicks said. “So it’s huge.”

Reigning world badminton champion An Se-young won the Denmark Open for her ninth international title of the season. An, world No. 1, defeated third-ranked Akane Yamaguchi 2-1 (21-23, 21-14, 21-18) for her second consecutive Denmark Open title at SJF Bank Arena in Odense, Denmark, on Sunday.

Badminton star An Se-young sets record for most int'l women's singles titles

With her latest victory in Denmark over the weekend, Korean badminton star An Se-young set the record for the most international titles in the women's singles, the sport's international governing body said Monday. The Badminton World Federation (BWF) announced on its social media that An's title at the Denmark Open on Sunday was her 47th international championship, one more than the former Indonesian star Susi Susanti. The BWF noted that titles in regional games are excluded and these records have been kept since 1989. An has been the world No. 1 for 105 consecutive weeks. She won a single-season record 11 titles in 2025 and is closing in on that mark this year with nine victories under her belt. In the Denmark Open final, An defeated Akane Yamaguchi of Japan 2-1 (21-23, 21-14, 21-18) despite trailing in every game and dealing with an apparent right ankle injury. Not counting team competitions, An has collected six titles on the BWF World Tour and also won gold medals at the Asian Championships, the BWF World Championships and the Asian Games in 2026. An has lost just one match all season

Veteran hitter released by KBO club

Son Ah-seop, third on the career hits list in Korean baseball, was released by his club Monday. The Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) announced Son was among 11 players that they had chosen not to bring back next season. The 38-year-old outfielder has now reached the crossroads after spending 20 seasons in the KBO, during which he has collected 2,655 hits. Son currently sits behind Choi Hyoung-woo of the Samsung Lions, who has 2,734 hits, and Kim Hyun-soo of the KT Wiz, who owns 2,691 hits, on the all-time list. Former LG Twins player Park Yong-taik previously owned the hits record with 2,504, and Son became the first player to surpass that mark in June 2024. Son remained the career leader in hits entering this season, but Choi passed him in May and Kim did the same in August. While Choi and Kim have remained productive in their early 40s and late 30s, respectively, Son has been on the downslope for the past couple of years after winning his first batting title in 2023. Son played for the Lotte Giants from 2007 to 2021, and then joined the NC Dinos as a free agent before

KBO's ERA, strikeout champion wins top Korean pitching award

Doosan Bears starter Gwak Been, who led the Korean baseball league in ERA and strikeouts this year, was named the recipient of the country's top pitching award Monday. Gwak was chosen as the winner of the 2026 Choi Dong-won Award. Named after the late former pitcher in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO), the award has been recognizing the top hurler in the KBO since 2014. The award selection committee said Gwak received first-place votes from six of its seven members. Gwak went 11-7 in 27 starts, covering 161 innings, and topped the KBO with a 2.24 ERA and 197 strikeouts. He was the only starter this season to post an ERA of under 3.00. Gwak also pitched Korea to the gold medal at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games in September, allowing just one run in 12 1/3 innings and striking out 19 in his two starts, including one against Japan in the gold medal game. Candidates for the award must meet the following criteria: at least 25 starts, 180 innings pitched, 12 wins, 150 strikeouts, 15 quality starts, a sub-3.00 ERA and 35 saves for relievers. Although Gwak fell short of thresholds in the wins a
