Download or read book Cover Me in the Day of Battle written by Bart Pierce and published by Strawbridge Press. This book was released on 2007-03-13 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is full of daily battles. Why do good Christian soldiers-pastors, leaders, intercessors, and others-lose some of those battles? Is it possible that they fail to reach their greatest potential because they go to battle without the covering of a spiritual father? In this day of do-it-yourselfism, Bishop Bart Pierce says it's time to address our need for fathers-both spiritual and natural. It's God's desire and the groan of the world for mature sons to come forth Fathers, arise now, and raise up sons. Sons, arise and get your heads covered, and lets go to battle under the covering of God and our fathers. Then the curse of fatherlessness will be broken, and sons will turn to fathers and fathers will turn to sons, so that the Church can be the force God created it to be.
Download or read book The Daily Battle for a Normal Life written by Lorette Gay and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-05-02 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olivia was a townswoman of Haiti whose life has been persecuted in all aspects. She talked about how in her childhood, she has become a friend of nature, which has impacted her life and abetted her throughout the diversity of many encumbrances. Through nature, she has learned what life is about, and nature has helped her overcome utmost the madness she has encountered along her pathway. She believes that the cycle change in the nature is likened to the cycle change in people's lives. Abandoned by her father while she was only an embryo, a father that had never come across her way, isolated from her mother at the age of six, she was left to be raised by her grandparents. Her existence is marked by many junctures. At an early age, she already knew what sexual harassment is about. She boarded many strangers' houses. In her teenage years, she traveled virtually the entire country from north, south, and central and has seen things that normal teens haven't seen and probably won't ever see in their existence. In her thirties, her husband left her in Haiti with two of her children, after the chaotic presidential overthrow of 1986. Fearing retaliation by an uprising populace, her husband was the first to emigrate in USA because as an act of reprisal toward anyone that had worked for the regime, no matter what your job was, thugs in the streets terrorized everyone (you can be here today and dead tomorrow). In 1987, after passing a long time into hell, in a country still under revolution, she and her children fled to New York. Then ten months after, she moved to Miami with her family, where she made it home in the United States, her adopted country. In 1992, while her life started to recover, her new home was hit by the most violent cyclone, Hurricane Andrew, which had destroyed everything she had amassed. A few years later, her husband left her again to go back to his native land, to stay. This is to ask if everyone that she loves will always find a way to pass as an absentee in her life. Over the following years, many chronic diseases have attacked her body, and from there the fun started, the fun game to stay alive. No one would imagine of what she's going through. She always looks happy, but under the veil of her happiness was hiding all sort of life complications that you would never thought could happen to one person. Her conviction is that she should not complain about herself. In this world we're living in, each of us carries secret onuses. By experience, she realized that people have a habit of comparing our burdens with the other people's. It isn't a fair tactic to support a friend or a family member in despair by associating his or her problem with another. Life is an impartial place for all of us. Don't presume that some problems are less than others. You exactly detain what you can bear oneself and what was predestined to fit only you.

Download or read book Contemporary Israel written by Frederick E. Greenspahn and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a country smaller than Vermont, with roughly the same population as Honduras, modern Israel receives a remarkable amount of attention. For supporters, it is a unique bastion of democracy in the Middle East, while detractors view it as a racist outpost of Western colonialism. The romanticization of Israel became particularly prominent in 1967, when its military prowess shocked a Jewish world still reeling from the sense of powerlessness dramatized by the Holocaust. That imagery has grown ever more visible, with Israel’s supporters idealizing its technological achievements and its opponents attributing almost every problem in the region, if not beyond, to its imperialistic aspirations. The contradictions and competing views of modern Israel are the subject of this book. There is much to consider about modern Israel besides the Middle East conflict. Over the past generation, a substantial body of scholarship has explored numerous aspects of the country, including its approaches to citizenship and immigration, the arts, the women’s movement, religious fundamentalism, and language; but much of that work has to date been confined within the walls of the academy. This book does not seek not to resolve either the country’s internal debates or its struggle with the Arab world, but to present a sample of contemporary scholars’ discoveries and discussions about modern Israel in an accessible way. In each of the areas discussed, competing narratives grapple for prominence, and it is these which are highlighted in this volume.
Download or read book Judicial Power and National Politics Second Edition written by Patricia J. Woods and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronicles the conflict between religious and secular forces in Israel. In Judicial Power and National Politics, Second Edition, Patricia J. Woods returns to an issue that has only grown in relevance since the first edition’s publication in 2008: the religious-secular conflict in Israel. The first edition focused on the role that courts and justices play in deeply charged political battles. In the last quarter of the twentieth century, social groups turned to the judicial arm of the state in an effort to force the state to change its laws and policies on religious personal status law, or family law. Through an extensive case study of the interactions of the women’s movement with the High Court of Justice, Woods argues that the most important determining factor explaining when, why, and how national courts enter into the world of divisive politics is found in the intellectual or judicial communities with whom justices live, work, and think about the law. The interaction among members of this community over time culminates in new legal norms. This second edition takes into account what has happened in the past decade, with public debate over religion and the state moving away from the court and into the realm of popular politics—on the Knesset floor, in the media, in shopping malls, and on the streets. Included for the first time is the dataset for the author’s national survey of women’s movement volunteers. Patricia J. Woods is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Florida.
Download or read book From Doing Meth Shards to Running Prison Yards written by Danny "Bulldog" Ratliff and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2023-09-27 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Doing Meth Shards to Running Prison Yards is an autobiography of an ordinary, average man from a ghost town in poverty-stricken eastern Kentucky known as Jenkins. It tells the true-life story of how moving to North Carolina to find work tragically ended up finding me addicted to meth and the treacherous and perilous life I lived for nearly a dozen years until the abundance of drug addiction fueled bad choices that finally led me to my consequences--my ultimate life-altering arrest. It continues with the tumultuous and cold-blooded ride our legal system drug me through because I would not snitch and I was poor, all the way to the 221-month sentence I received as a first-time offender, and finally, how the vestigial operations of the NCDPS (North Carolina Department of Public Safety) prison system funneled me into joining the BFG (Bound For Glory), an Aryan prison club or gang just so I could live the life I was sentenced to a little safer in a world unseen by society, a world saturated with (reverse) racism, a world where the White man is the minority, a world where nobody cares, a world where the truth about it is hidden from civilization.

Download or read book Christ Centered Consciousness written by John T. Ryan IV and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christ-Centered Consciousness is the work of a spiritually awakened gay man who was healed from a satanic possession by Jesus Christ through extraordinary spiritual phenomena. The core of his spiritual bondage was in a lack of acceptance of his sexuality and of his deepest core self. The healing of this self has led him to many spiritual discoveries, including an ability to discern the presence of Christ in his own consciousness. The goal of this book is to enable the reader to build a connection to God in their own consciousness and to discern the ways in which the enemy tries to block progress. Christ is truly the ultimate in healing and joy, and learning how to discern his presence and follow his lead in one’s own life is the doorway to happiness in this life, and eternal joy in the next.
