Download or read book Confessions of a Church Mouse written by Bre'nae Whiteley and published by . This book was released on 2016-05 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bre'nae Whiteley was a church mouse: quiet, unassuming, rarely drawing attention to herself. Honoring the way she was raised, Bre'nae felt more eager to learn in church than to socialize or lead groups. She found that this quiet, unassuming side of her personality leads some members to question her prayer life and faith. Made evident while gathered in the fellowship hall, preparing to consecrate before going into the choir stand. The choir president asked for someone to say a prayer, before anyone could respond the comment was made "Sis Whiteley doesn't pray" a conclusion drawn because of her quiet ways. The comment stung. After all, Bre'nae prayed regularly not always in front of others. But instead of taking offence, Bre'nae was inspired to use it as an opportunity to reflect on her own prayer life. She found that not only could she grow in her communication with God. There were no doubt other quiet, unassuming church goers all over the nation that more than likely found themselves in the category of the Church Mouse. By closely examining her prayer life and her relationship with God, she learned that a church mouse has a special role in praying for the body of Christ and encouraging its well-being in ways that are quiet but incredibly valuable.

First it was the short-term memories, then the medium ones. As time went by, more memories seem to leave, but she never forgot her God and she never did not pray. I put my hand on her bed as she breathed her last breath. I prayed, Thank you, Lord, for making it possible for me to be there. As I sit here in the lighted room, the dark outside, I miss my stepmom. Tomorrow is Christmas, a time of celebration, and I think to myself, Do I have anything to celebrate? Most of my family has died. I still have the children and the grandchildren. I guess I am blessed, and is that not the way of life? Us older folks die, and the young take our place, unless there is some unforeseen unexpected tragedy. But I have much to be thankful for this Christmas. See, because of my decision to take care of my stepmom at the nursing home, I now have a new set of friends. A nursing home full of friends. Thank you, stepmom and God, for making this possible. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, humanity.

Download or read book Confessions of a Home Army Executioner written by Roger Moorhouse and published by Greenhill Books. This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book is moral dynamite. It reveals not only what men can do in war but also what war can do to men.” – Norman Davies, historian and academic Stefan D?mbski joined the Polish Home Army in 1942 when he was just 16 years old. The Home Army formed the military wing of the Polish Underground, the resistance movement established to fight the Nazi occupation of Poland during the Second World War. During this occupation, the Home Army passed death sentences on hundreds of individuals – both Nazi enemies and colluding Polish compatriots. As one of the few Home Army members who volunteered to carry out these death sentences, the young D?mbski quickly became a seasoned executioner. In July 1945, D?mbski was transferred to the West and ended up in the United States where he remained until his death in 1993. In his final years, D?mbski recorded his story in fascinating, shocking detail. After his death, his memoirs came into the possession of his niece and nephew before eventually arriving at the KARTA Foundation in 2005. Initially published in the original Polish, Sobieralski’s translation of D?mbski’s records now gives English-language readers a hugely important insight into the mind of this seasoned executioner. Readers are made aware of the facts and actions of D?mbski’s life, but are witness to the lifelong moral struggle that accompanied these actions and led him to reflect on ideas of heroism, patriotism, guilt and on the very act of war itself.
