Book excerpt: I have written this book with the unique perspective of standing in God’s White Light, during an afterlife experience. With an open mind and a glimpse of what lies ahead for us, I now have a non-traditional explanation for parts of the Bible. Verses from the Bible are used as a backdrop to parts of this book. Inside, details are given on why it doesn’t matter how you get to God. From my real life experiences, I now understand that Religion isn’t about who is wrong and who is right. It is about finding our peace. Throughout the New Testament, Jesus teaches us how to find our peace. This peace is the gateway to God and His Light. This book is also designed to be a handbook or guide. This guide will help people understand why the Church and Religion will still be very important after disclosure of intelligent alien life happens. After a disclosure event of this kind, this book will explain and help people understand that it doesn’t matter. The reason being, is that God and Jesus are still both very real.

Download or read book Been There Done That written by Bonita D. Evans and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young woman wants more in life than is being offered as she reaches maturity. Always daring, outspoken and adventurous, she dreams of life beyond her neighborhood and the people she grew up with. The late 1950s and early 1960s rarely offered opportunities to women wishing to reach out and grab a piece of life. Even something as simple as traveling from one state to another, required that they be either chaperoned by a man, or herded into a group like cows. Funny, painful, and at times, incredible, you will find yourself travelling with her, as she makes an escape from a boring switchboard operator's job at a neighborhood bank, to travel for 24 years around the world

Book excerpt: “I truly thought my reports and journals might be of interest to GM to be used as a training tool for new officers.

Most have no idea what takes place in a manufacturing plant, (up to now). Whichever, category you fall into I’m sure you’ll feel you got your money’s worth.” Enjoy, Don Montie

Download or read book Let There Be Light written by Joe Giovanelli and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inspirational memoir will provide hope to many of us who feel at times discouraged, stuck in what we think is a helpless situation, bullied on the playgrounds of life, or shunned for being different. Joe Giovanelli was born blind at a time when blind children were often warehoused in special schools and then shunted off to work in sheltered workshops. But not for Joe! His school-teacher mom pushed for a good education and his dad encouraged Joe's mechanical aptitudes. Joe became a trailblazer in education of the blind, graduating cum laude from Syracuse University. With an upbeat love for his work, he became a leader in the field of audio and recording. He was awakened in mid-life by how God had and continues to guide him throughout his life. Perseverance, enriched by his personal faith, enabled him to meet obstacles and move beyond where many would give up. Always ready to entertain others with his musicianship and also wit, Joe endears himself to those privileged to know him. And this delightfully told memoir gives us a new understanding of what it's like to live day by day blind in a sighted world. And Joe says, I never felt I needed sight. The memoir of Joe Giovanelli is a beautifully crafted story and one of the best told memoirs I have seen in my over 40 years in publishing. It pulls you the reader in just as if you were sitting chatting with Joe getting to know well the evolving personality and inspiring life story of this remarkable man. Stephen Pfleiderer, retired publishing executive

Download or read book Been There Done That Lived to Tell written by Magarette Boutillette and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a journey that begins with a jolt--the bumpy, sometimes lonely, existence despite being surrounded by many. The story tells of faith searching reason, diving headfirst into independence, along with the learning curve in making life-and-death decisions. It tells about a gypsy with a Peter Pan heart living the hippie era, the mental trials and tribulations of relationships, life in the fast lanes of rock and roll. It tells about the worm towing the ship of fame and fortune from Alaska, crossing paths, tempting fate, and hearing the voices of ancient reason. This is a story of coming to terms with reality and packing up the rose-colored lenses of lost dreams and hopes. It is the turning of pages as life unravels its truth. It is about contemplating life's purpose and the existence of a creator, reasoning for the weary sorrows in the world through indefatigable searching leading to understanding.
