Download or read book The Storyteller s Son written by Wesley Allan Dueck and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A storyteller, upon realizing his life is short, begins to prepare his seven-year-old son Wesley for a dark, fatherless future. Using Bible stories, he tries to convince his son to be a lifetime follower of the God who loves him and longs to be his earthly father's replacement. But when his father passes away, Wesley is filled with bitterness. Like the old tree behind his family home, he is pelted by the storms of life and can only brace himself against the wind. As Wesley embarks on a journey away from the God he believes is responsible for his dad's death, he turns to petty crime and a path marked by bad choices until ultimately a collision course with a “God Encounter” changes his world. In his memoir, The Storyteller’s Son, Wesley Allan Dueck becomes a storyteller himself by skillfully recounting his stories of his journey’s twisted path – first away from and then towards – his God and religion. Sometimes truth makes a better story than fiction, so buckle up, grab a box of tissues, and prepare for a roller-coaster ride that ends in salvation.

Download or read book The In World written by Lionel Roberts and published by Gateway. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At first it was just another hoax, another UFO story, but the sightings went on increasing. It couldn't be an alien, there had been so many false alarms, dramatic news-columnists had shouted 'wolf' so many times, that John Citizen shrugged his shoulders and said 'nuts' at the very mention of the word space-ship. Then one of them landed... The things they did were not exactly friendly. In fact by the time they'd finished, they had made an old-time Viking raid seem like a social call from the vicar... Many other attacks followed. Day after day and night after night the alien ships screamed in on their mission of death. The earth struck back. But no one could track the aliens to their lair. They seemed to come from Nowhere. They weren't Martians. They weren't Venusians, and they weren't from another system. That left only one place where they could have originated... yet the truth was so fantastic that none of the earth governments would take it seriously until it was almost too late. The enemy came from within! From the gigantic caverns at the earth's core.

Download or read book The Song of the Guru written by Prem Prakash and published by Lotus Press. This book was released on 2017-12-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Guru Gita, literally, The Song of the Guru, is a dialogue between the god, Shiva, and his beloved wife, Parvati. Shiva is depicted as the eternal, archetypal yogi and the primal guru, the fountainhead of yogic teachings. Parvati represents the Divine Mother, Nature as the feminine force of power and beauty. From the personal perspective, the guru is a human being who teaches. She has two arms, two legs, and all of the physical traits of any other mortal. From the transcendent level, the external teacher is but a channel for guru tattva, the essence of guru-hood, whose job is to awaken the student to the truth revealed by his own inner guru. To appreciate the teachings of the Guru Gita, the aspirant must be willing to entertain the tension of holding both the personal and transcendent paradigms in consciousness. Neither is to be accepted at the expense of rejecting the other. The friction created by holding opposites in the psyche generates an energy which will lift the student to a higher level of consciousness if he remains earnest.
Download or read book Our Ebenezer written by Pam Dysinger and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John and Pam Dysinger started life together with the desire to serve. Young and idealistic, they headed to Kenya with the passion to make a difference in the lives of children and youth. For the next eight years the classroom was their platform for ministry. Then the call came. Like Abraham’s call to leave the comforts of home for an unknown destination, their call was to leave the comforts of employment, for an unknown occupation. In a world of fractured relationships, John was called to come home and join Pam in the raising of their children. Farming was God’s appointed vehicle to unite the family. Together they worked toward common goals and experienced the exhilaration of conquering seemingly insurmountable tasks; together they experienced the fears and struggles of “failure” and the financial constraints of “poverty.” Walk with them through this candid account of their experience as they learned to follow God and depend on Him alone. Grapple with them as they faced the harsh realities of learning to farm; cling with them to the promises of God and the desire to be faithful to His call. Above all, come to know that, while your path may not be exactly the same, God wants this same kind of intimate relationship with you.
