Download or read book And She Lived on the Twilight Side of the Hill written by Stan Cotta and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is sad to me how many people actually believe that young Christians will never have the joy of experiencing romance in their lives. I have come to understand that they suppose this because they wrongly assume the Bible strictly prohibits it. Christian romance on God's terms however, is truly a sight to behold. It is very much unlike the romance the world holds out; it is not greedy, not self serving but considerate, favoring the other. In short, it is exciting and thrilling to see unfold before their eyes. Finally, it is blessed by the Lord Himself culminating in the enduring bond of marriage. In this story, the young Christian rancher, Gilbert Miles has been praying for and anticipating just such a romantic relationship but along the way finds himself off track. The circumstances that follow test the very marrow of his love and trust for his Lord and Savior.

Download or read book No One Could Know written by Kristan Shan Gray and published by WestBowPress. This book was released on 2013-12-27 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surprisingly, No One Could Know is actually a funny bookat least in the beginning. Many have said, I laughed, I cried, I got mad, and I even learned a little as I read your book. So, why is a book about abortion partially funny? I think thats just how life is sometimesits full of ups and downs, isnt it? Reasons for abortion vary, but I dare say a large number of abortions take place because of the very same reason I had mineso no one would know what was done at an inconvenient time. Im now going public with my experience of an abortionand later, rapebecause I believe there is someone out there who needs to read this and will be touched by what it contains. If you have never found yourself in such situations as I did, then maybe this book can help you to be of help to someone else. No One Could Know is engaging, thought-provoking, and informative. More importantly, its a tool of recovery for those who walked the same road I did. When I chose abortion, I was a Christian, but I had no idea how astounding and full of grace, forgiveness, and love our awesome God is. Jesus Christ has truly set me free. I hope you experience His presence of joy unspeakable and full of glory as you relax and slip into my story with me, God, and a good cup of coffee.

Download or read book Cecil and Lois An Old Love Story Revisited written by Cecil Smith and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True love endures. This love story has taken over fifty-seven years to tell. It began with the hot fiery passion of youth, the separation of our lovers because of time and space, and then the rekindling of that love from the embers found in the ashes of that fire.The story starts in the coastal town of Watsonville, California, where these lovers met at Watsonville High School in 1960. Anyone who was alive in the fifties and early sixties really miss those good old days. We did not realize at that time how great they were. We enjoyed simple pleasures. Cruising on a Saturday night, drive-in movies, and many nights sitting at the beach listening to the radio. We were innocent but not prudish, mischievous but not mean, respectful to our parents, the elderly, and those in authority. We were not angels, but neither were we devils.So from those days, which have taken on an idealistic perspective, we progress to real life as grown-ups in the eighties and nineties. This double autobiography follows the lives of Cecil and Lois through marriages, divorces, births, deaths, and all the myriad of unexpected events that came along the way.And at last we reach retirement after all those years of employment. What we hoped for does not turn out exactly like we thought. Again, unexpected events and surprises await us. But true love endures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years have passed since Terry and Nick have graduated from high school, and during that time, a lot has happened. Terry has gone to Vietnam as a medic, and Nick has been to Costa Rica as a Peace Corps Volunteer. When Terry returns to St. Louis to join his wife, Jenny, and his one-year old son, he pursues his commitment to God by becoming a minister in a local Lutheran church and dedicates his life to serving Christ. Nick too returns to St. Louis where he marries his high school sweetheart, Lolly, and graduates from college with a PhD in Geophysics. Although totally dedicated to their husbands, Lolly and Jenny have their own interests as well. Lolly has become a pediatrician and balances her time as a doctor with the scheduled piano tours she makes worldwide to raise money for a medical clinic and shelter she has founded for the homeless in North St. Louis. Jenny, on the other hand, is busy running a dance studio and directing the St. Louis Ballet Company. Their hectic schedules soon lead to rising tension in their relationships, and they soon find themselves drifting apart and questioning their purposes in life. However, their lives are forever changed when they all decide to travel to Europe together to provide support and encouragement to Terry's brother, David, who is competing in the Olympics. It is only then that David realizes he has been given a special gift from God and that it is to be used to pursue and vanquish the evil that has emerged when a familiar face from the past suddenly appears.

Download or read book Trampling the Serpent Vietnam POW written by John Fer Colonel USAF-Retired and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-11-14 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vietnam is sometimes called the land of the rising serpent, or dragon, because its geographical landmass resembles a serpent (or dragon) in an upward configuration. In this book, taken from Colonel Fer's personal experience of more than six years of Communist incarceration at the hands of the North Vietnamese, one learns of his surprising, actually shocking, awakening from the idyllic world of an idealistic, future-oriented combat pilot backward into the ancient world of warfare, where brutality toward POWs was the norm. Wounded by shrapnel when his EB-66C aircraft was shot down by surface-to-air missiles on February 4, 1967, he recounts his seventy-three months of captivity, which brought him face-to-face with mistreatment and deprivation and Communist charge that he was a war criminal and subject to tribunals. It was also a world of deprivation that ignored any considerations of treatment according to international diplomatic agreements or international humanitarian law. A bachelor when he was captured, and denied any communication with them for over three years, Colonel Fer articulates his parents' actions in trying to learn his fate for the nearly four years it was unknown to them. Throughout his imprisonment, his resistance to brutal treatment and intense Communist attempts to indoctrinate him with anti-Americanism, Colonel Fer relied on his three faiths: in God, in America, and in his fellow POWs. The release of the POWs in 1973 was a joyous international event of immense proportions, and he describes his return to America on March 8, the attention, and the numerous requests for speaking engagements and other public appearances. The events of his return also eventually brought his marriage to Nancy, whom he still holds in great reverence. Colonel Fer describes his experience as a POW as "the best thing that ever happened to [him]" because it brought clarity of how to better understand America and its people.
