This is the story of common men living by God, prayer and family. Their letters share laughter, hardship and perseverance during one of the most tested times of their young lives.This story touches on issues of citizenship, farming and service. It is a story about all of us.Every person living in the United States of America shouldered additional responsibilities during the Second World War. Viola, whether she realized it or not, assumed the role of writing letters to her two brothers, two brother-in-laws and approximately a half dozen other servicemen from the small rural area of Greene, Ohio. Her tireless correspondence provided hope and morale for these men as well as for her young family and neighbors. Throughout the letters, all four men come to grips with each card dealt them keeping God, prayer and family in the forefront of their correspondence and actions. Although they each had their trials, they persisted in remaining selfless discussing the well-being of their family members and each other ahead of themselves. In addition, there are passages from the Bible found throughout the story that reveal our family's life and faith in God and though we are all sinners and harden our hearts until life is at its most difficult and we feel most vulnerable, these passages remind me, personally of God's infinite mercy and love for us.

Download or read book God Bless Us Every One written by David R. Coombs and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caution: Literature purists may be offended. God Bless Us, Every One! cannot be called a sequel to Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol because it’s different from the classic in too many ways. Yet it does use it as backstory. The opening scene mirrors the first paragraphs of A Christmas Carol by reporting the death of Scrooge in a similar fashion to Dickens’s announcement of the death of Marley. Coombs extends the wordplay, furthering the jokes Dickens makes to set the tone for the book. And he borrows other tropes and style features from Dickens for comic effect—surreal grotesque characters with suggestive names populate this novel rife with puns and malapropisms of all types. The style of God Bless Us, Every One! might be described as faux-Dickensian, but the work draws inspiration from a long line of humorists right up to today’s edgiest writers. It’s a trenchant satire that mocks cultural norms, genre fiction, predatory capitalism, ethnic stereotyping, and religion all through the vehicle of a ludicrous storyline of dark comic fantasy. Tiny Tim is the atypical hero of the story. Reduced to a vegetative state, he becomes an empath with the magical ability of picking up emotions from others, then radiating them out into the world. Without a will of his own, he becomes a tool of unscrupulous people who use him to manipulate markets and political sentiment—often to disastrous ends.

Book excerpt: Dorothy France provides beautiful prayers and services to help us celebrate special days of the church year and focus on our Christ-given mission to be his light in the world. From the earliest history of the Christian church, believers have set aside time for holy days, special observances to commemorate Jesus' birth, death, resurrection, teachings, and ministry.
