Download or read book America s Resurrection written by Bruce Moore and published by Jim Kochenburger. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America's Resurrection: Seeking God's Blessing on Our Nation, author Bruce Moore details the original founding vision for America, our rise to greatness, and our present downward cycle. He shows how the Christian values our nation was founded upon, which served as the source of strength and success for our government, culture and society, are now at risk in America today, and with them, so much more. By comparing America at its founding with its current state, Moore skillfully explores: - The dilution and polarization of Christian values in our society, the resultant disunity of our citizenry, and the erosion of our status as the world's leading nation. - The alarming increase in the size and role of our nation's government, its increasing reach into the personal lives of its citizens, as well as how our contentious political atmosphere has inflamed this problem. - The importance of the preservation of the U.S. Constitution as originally interpreted and intended by the founders of our great nation, in the face of divergent reinterpretation that social pressures of our day impose. Though he presents a sometimes grim assessment of America's current state and direction, Moore presents a hopeful picture of the bright future of our nation in America's Resurrection: Seeking God's Blessing on Our Nation. If you believe in America and want to see her restored to greatness, you will find in these pages a wealth of invaluable information, written from a solidly Bible-based, Christian worldview. Bruce Moore has been a Christian for over 45 years, serving as a teacher, small group leader, deacon and elder. His vocation is Chemical Engineering, his avocation is love for God, his family, the Bible and America, all of which provided him deep wells from which to draw as he penned this insightful, provocative work. He has been married for 36 years, during which time he and his dear wife raised four children, now adult Christians.

Book excerpt: The United States of America is the greatest, the noblest and, in its original founding principles, the only moral country in the history of the world." Ayn Rand The Constitution has failed. At its birth, the Constitution changed the world. But over the past century it has repeatedly failed to protect Americans from countless human rights violations. Yet, most Americans do not even realize that it has failed, which is a much more troubling problem. Americans are not properly educated in their nation's great heritage, nor the reasons why our nation exists. We are taught that we rebelled because we didn't want to pay taxes. Taxes were not the issue. Today, in a confused struggle to do what is right, we have cannibalize our principles and forgotten our great purpose. This book is an attempt to reawaken the giant that changed the world. The ideas that the led to our nations founding still have the power to radically change history. We only need to remember who we are. Liberal or conservative, this book will challenge you to see the world in a new and powerful way. The United States still has a destiny to fulfill in the world, the only question is... will we do what is necessary to realize that future?

Download or read book A Wild Justice The Death and Resurrection of Capital Punishment in America written by Evan J. Mandery and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice Drawing on never-before-published original source detail, the epic story of two of the most consequential, and largely forgotten, moments in Supreme Court history. For two hundred years, the constitutionality of capital punishment had been axiomatic. But in 1962, Justice Arthur Goldberg and his clerk Alan Dershowitz dared to suggest otherwise, launching an underfunded band of civil rights attorneys on a quixotic crusade. In 1972, in a most unlikely victory, the Supreme Court struck down Georgia’s death penalty law in Furman v. Georgia. Though the decision had sharply divided the justices, nearly everyone, including the justices themselves, believed Furman would mean the end of executions in America. Instead, states responded with a swift and decisive showing of support for capital punishment. As anxiety about crime rose and public approval of the Supreme Court declined, the stage was set in 1976 for Gregg v. Georgia, in which the Court dramatically reversed direction. A Wild Justice is an extraordinary behind-the-scenes look at the Court, the justices, and the political complexities of one of the most racially charged and morally vexing issues of our time.
Download or read book Resurrection written by Daniel Madsen and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimed at the general reader with an interest in World War II and the U.S. Navy, this book looks at the massive salvage effort that followed the attack on Pearl Harbor, beginning with the damage control efforts aboard the sinking and damaged ships in the harbor on 7 December 1941 and ending in March 1944 when salvage efforts on the USS Utah were finally abandoned. Dan Madsen describes the Navy's dramatic race to clear the harbor and repair as many ships as possible so they could return to the fleet ready for war. Numerous photographs, many never before published in books for the general public, give readers a real appreciation for the momentous task involved, from the raising of the USS Oglala in 1942 and the USS Oklahoma in 1943 to the eventual dismantling of the above-water portions of the USS Arizona.
Download or read book Resurrection written by Annette McGivney and published by Braided River. This book was released on 2009 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writer Annette McGivney explores the controversy and the history of water politics in the American Southwest through the lens of the re-emergence of Glen Canyon due to an ongoing drought. More than 125 large images by photographer James Kay capture the beauty of the legendary canyons of Glen Canyon as they emerge into the light of day for the first time in nearly 40 years. Each chapter opens with a journal excerpt that personalizes the Glen Canyon story, and the book concludes with a list of recommended hikes in the area that will draw outdoor enthusiasts to reemerging attractions. Throughout her account, McGivney stresses the need for a new model of living in the American West -- the U.S. Department of the Interior must shift its water policy to meet changing needs and Americans must live more sustainably, especially in the arid West. Resurrection eloquently demonstrates why Americans should stand behind the renewal of Glen Canyon and accord it protection as a national park-both to honor the area as a national treasure and to preserve it for future generations. * Published in partnership with Glen Canyon Institute, an NGO with a membership of 3,000 dedicated to making Glen Canyon a national park * Includes an appendix of recommended hikes
Download or read book American Apocalypse written by Matthew Avery Sutton and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Choice Outstanding Academic Title, 2015 The first comprehensive history of modern American evangelicalism to appear in a generation, American Apocalypse shows how a group of radical Protestants, anticipating the end of the world, paradoxically transformed it. “The history Sutton assembles is rich, and the connections are startling.” —New Yorker “American Apocalypse relentlessly and impressively shows how evangelicals have interpreted almost every domestic or international crisis in relation to Christ’s return and his judgment upon the wicked...Sutton sees one of the most troubling aspects of evangelical influence in the spread of the apocalyptic outlook among Republican politicians with the rise of the Religious Right...American Apocalypse clearly shows just how popular evangelical apocalypticism has been and, during the Cold War, how the combination of odd belief and political power could produce a sleepless night or two.” —D. G. Hart, Wall Street Journal “American Apocalypse is the best history of American evangelicalism I’ve read in some time...If you want to understand why compromise has become a dirty word in the GOP today and how cultural politics is splitting the nation apart, American Apocalypse is an excellent place to start.” —Stephen Prothero, Bookforum
Download or read book The Resurrection of Johnny Cash written by Graeme Thomson and published by Jawbone. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1992, Johnny Cash was battered and bruised. In constant pain through heart problems, broken bones and the aftermath of a second bout of drug addiction, his career wasn’t in much better shape than his body. One of his last singles for CBS, before they dumped him in 1986 after nearly 30 years, had been ‘The Chicken In Black’ – in the video for which he appeared as a superhero fowl, dressed in cape, yellow shirt and tights. At the age of 60, all the signs were that Cash was ready for the museum. In fact, he was building one. Already an exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame, when he wasn’t playing small, shabby venues like Roadie’s Roadhouse, Mississauga, Ontario or Butlins Southcoast World in Bognor Regis, he was preparing to open the Cash Country theme park in Branson, Missouri. Cut to a little under two years later. December 1993. Cash is playing the Viper Rooms on Sunset Boulevard in front of 150 of the hippest people in America. He is introduced by Johnny Depp; the audience includes Sean Penn, Juliette Lewis and assorted Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They cheer him to the rafters for the full ninety minutes. His big bass baritone gets a whole song to itself on Zooropa, the new U2 album, while he has just completed recording his landmark American Recordings, made with Midas-like hip-hop and metal producer Rick Rubin. He won a Grammy for that and a fistful more for his four other American Recordings albums. He played an unforgettable Glastonbury set in 1994 and was feted by one and all, from Nick Cave and Bono to Trent Reznor and Joe Strummer. From thereon until his death in 2003 (and beyond), Cash was the epitome of hip. Big Daddy cool. What happened? The Resurrection Of Johnny Cash tells the story of perhaps the most remarkable turnaround in musical history. As well as acknowledging Cash’s drug, drink and religious travails in the fifties and sixties, the book digs much deeper, focusing on a lesser known but no less remarkable period of his life: the inglorious fall post-1970 and the almost biblical rebirth in his later years. Homing in on the ten-year period between 1986 and 1995, The Resurrection Of Johnny Cash tells in detail the story of Cash’s humiliating fall from grace and his unprecedented revival; his struggle with a cruel variety of illnesses; his ongoing battles with addiction; his search to find direction in his career; his eventual rebirth as both an artist and a man; and his hugely influential legacy.

Download or read book The Reestablishment Project written by Mark Steven Weiss and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This treatise describes principles necessary for the strict understanding, recovery, and defense of our citizen's fundamental inalienable rights--what the author imagines Thomas Jefferson would have referred to as "Reestablishment." In the course of that description, the author provides intensely-passionate civic testimony at its best, in the course of which he holds both Democrats, Republicans, and lazy Independents responsible for our national decline. The author begins by laying the foundation for a required national culture--a radically-conservative approach to modern civics embracing the original meaning of the U.S. Constitution. Two essays (the first, an expose; the second, an expansive exploration of the proper basis for the future evolution of our national culture) form the core of the book. These essays are separated by two dialogues added primarily for comic relief. The book's capstone is a highly-challenging proposed DECLARATION OF REESTABLISHMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, prospectively dated April 15, 2020. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to national recovery, this ground-breaking work presents a unifying framework indispensable to a critically-forthright examination of our nation's worsening civic squalor (with particular emphasis put upon our citizen's growing tendency to shun personal liberty and responsibility) necessary for our country's essential rebirth. With the aid of correspondence with world-class thinkers, as well as extensive personal narrative, the author explains how, and why, over a nearly forty-year-long period, he was led to adopt a responsible militant-libertarian position in lieu of one based upon socialistic principles previously developed in connection with a farm-based Virginian commune (i.e., Twin Oaks Community) inspired by B.F. Skinner.
