Download or read book Crazy Shepherd Crazy Sheep written by Ronald C. Gelaude and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-06 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say that life is all about the journey, not the destination. But with much of the Bible speaking to life after death, it's easy for some Christians to become so focused on the destination that they not only lose sight of the journey, but also of the path. This, unfortunately, means that many people act in ways that appear loving, when, in reality, their interests are entirely selfish.Some followers of Christ, however, are able to move beyond self and love even those who are hard to love, based not on the nature or character of the one being loved, but rather, on the one doing the loving. Critics might call such people “crazy” because they can't comprehend their selfless approach to love—but it is the selflessness of their love that makes their approach worth comprehending.Crazy Shepherd ~ Crazy Sheep is the story of how one man's life went from despair to raw hope after he opened his mind to Christ and embraced a way of life that offers love, grace, and hope to others. A truly inspirational work, it will bring you face to face with a new face of Jesus.

Download or read book Call Me Red written by Hannah Jackson and published by Random House. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sunday Times bestseller Lessons to live by, without getting up with the lark Hannah Jackson (aka The Red Shepherdess) grew up in the Wirral, and hadn't set foot on a farm until she was 20-years-old. But she'd always loved animals and on a visit to the Lake District, she saw a lamb being born and had a light bulb moment - a burning desire to succeed as a farmer - and never looked back. In Tales of a Shepherdess, Hannah gives us a unique insight into farm life and the values it has taught her that we can use in our everyday lives to change ourselves and our world for the better - from connection, communication and community, to leadership, patience and resilience. Hannah will show us how becoming a lambing and farming contractor in a male-dominated and traditional world taught her grit and determination; how training her loyal sheepdog Fraser taught her to trust; and how sometimes failure can teach us more about ourselves than success. Hannah's journey also teaches us how we should find what sets our hearts on fire and throw everything into it. Hannah's simple and universal wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement will inspire you to achieve your goals, follow your dreams and focus on what's really important in life.
Download or read book Schlepping Through the Alps written by Sam Apple and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-01-16 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hans Breuer, Austria’s only wandering shepherd, is also a Yiddish folksinger. He walks the Alps, shepherd’s stick in hand, singing lullabies to his 625 sheep. Sometimes he even gives concerts in historically anti-Semitic towns, showing slides of the flock as he belts out Yiddish ditties. When New York-based writer Sam Apple hears about this one-of-a-kind eccentric, he flies overseas and signs on as a shepherd’s apprentice. For thoroughly urban, slightly neurotic Sam, stumbling along in borrowed boots and burdened with a lot more baggage than his backpack, the task is far from a walk in Central Park. Demonstrating no immediate natural talent for shepherding, he tries to earn the respect of Breuer’s sheep, while keeping a safe distance from the shepherd’s fierce herding dogs. As this strange and hilarious adventure unfolds, the unlikely duo of Sam and Hans meander through a paradise of woods and high meadows toward awkward encounters with Austrians of many stripes. Apple is determined to find out if there are really as many anti-Semites in Austria as he fears and to understand how Hans, who grew up fighting the lingering Nazism in Vienna, became a wandering shepherd. What Apple discovers turns out to be far more fascinating than he had imagined. With this odd and wonderful book, Sam Apple joins the august tradition of Tony Horwitz and Bill Bryson. Schlepping Through the Alps is as funny as it is moving.
