Book excerpt: Honour? Or her heart's desire? When Felix discovers the divine "Miss Hope" in his bed, his betrayal is acute. Two years ago, he’d been on the verge of proposing marriage to the beautiful governess who had taught his neighbour’s children. But Hope had failed to appear for their secret assignation, supposedly rejecting Felix in favour of a position abroad. Now, to Felix’s shock and dismay, Hope is the surprise gift his friends have sourced from London's most exclusive House of Assignation in the hopes of lifting his dark depression. Despite the pain of the past, Felix can't bear to lose her again. But Hope Merriweather is bound to her new life by a dark secret. She sacrificed Felix two years before. Now, she must choose again: Honour or her heart's desire? For readers who love second-chance, redemption love stories with a happily-ever-after they didn't see coming. Forsaking Hope is Book 2 in the Fair Cyprians of London Series but can be read as a standalone. What the readers are saying: "I have found a new author. Storyline that reaches into the darker side of human nature. Twist and turns with a couple of double twists. Hope remains..." "A sad story with intrigue, deception, strong emotions, suspense, violence and passion." "An emotional story that keeps you reading until the last page." "Immerse yourself in the time period -- put yourself in a situation of no way out, no options, no hope. Highly recommended -- I lost myself in the storyline -- and in history."
Download or read book Gospel Centered Discipleship written by Jonathan K. Dodson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2012-03-31 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting on the practice of disciple making in young adult, college, graduate, and local church contexts, Jonathan Dodson has discerned some common pitfalls. For many, discipleship is reduced to a form of religious performance before God. For others, it devolves into spiritual license and a loose adherence to spiritual facts. Both approaches distort biblical motivations for Christian obedience and are in need of reform. By explaining various motivations for discipleship, Dodson charts a biblically faithful, grace-driven alternative. Additionally, he provides a practical model for creating gospel-centered discipleship groups—small, reproducible, missional, gender-specific groups of believers that fight for faith together. This book blends both theology and practice to inspire and equip Christians to effectively fight sin, keep Jesus central, and make gospel-centered discipleship a way of life. Both new and growing Christians will learn to trust the gospel in community as they fight together for holiness as well as how to start gospel-centered community groups in any local church.

Download or read book The Horizon written by Didier Maleuvre and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a horizon? A line where land meets sky? The end of the world or the beginning of perception? In this brilliant, engaging, and stimulating history, Didier Maleuvre journeys to the outer reaches of human experience and explores philosophy, religion, and art to understand our struggle and fascination with limits—of life, knowledge, existence, and death. Maleuvre sweeps us through a vast cultural landscape, enabling us to experience each stopping place as the cusp of a limitless journey, whether he is discussing the works of Picasso, Gothic architecture, Beethoven, or General Relativity. If, as Aristotle said, philosophy begins in wonder, then this remarkable book shows us how wonder—the urge to know beyond the conceivable—is itself the engine of culture.

Download or read book Essays written by Jascha Kessler and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-04-21 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essay is an exercise in communicating the essence of argumentationat best a presentation of whatever seems worth consideration either today or might be tomorrow. Occasions set down in words are arbitrary, precarious, at best haphazard. They are brought forward by impulses from the world outside and beyond the personal, caught in flight by the circumstances and vicissitudes of a life. Between the person described in the first of these varied prosings and the last offeredbetween the "what" I thought I was and the "who" I may have beenseventy-five years have passed. Whether deserving of another person's attention is not a judgment for this writer to make. Michel de Montaigne offers no better justification or excuse than to say he was concerned to study himself. His genius was not only fine but bold. What he wrote of himself in his world and what he took from great ancient writers is superlative in its objective, modest egoism and wisdom. As a casual essayist, I expect not the least comparison with that admirable and freest of men. All I can hope for is that whatever my reader may find worth the time passed with this volume offers as much diversion and entertainment as perhaps did my verse, fiction, and drama published during those same past years.
Download or read book Orphan Mysticism written by Jeffery Childers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If all that you were, was the least of what you are, that would be enough. We are enough, good enough, smart enough, capable enough, worthy enough, beautiful enough, and strong enough, together, to meet this worlds many remaining problems, and to overcome them, for the sake of our survival, and for the promise of a better future. All it takes is a moment, here, and a moment there, doing a kind thing for a stranger, picking up a piece of litter when you see it, standing beside those who are being victimized rather than turning away, sharing rides, giving some money, sharing a meal or a book or the experience of a shared interest. All it takes is a moment here, or a moment there, caring when you didn't have to, smiling when you make eye contact, comforting when you witness sorrow. Among the whole of our world, there exist none who are incapable of these things. This is fellowship, and if you will be brave, and put a little faith in us, as I put faith in you, there is nothing which we cannot accomplish.
