Download or read book God Is a Grunt written by Logan M Isaac and published by Worthy Books. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eye-opening book invites readers of all political and denominational stripes into a more meaningful conversation and community with soldiers and veterans. If Jesus is God, then God is a grunt—the humble, hardy folk placed at the bottom of the social hierarchy who are relied on to accomplish the dirtiest, most difficult (and most thankless) work. This is good news for millions of Christian soldiers and veterans in the U.S. because they have had to make an impossible choice, with no perceivable middle ground, between patriot and pacifist. In his new book, God Is a Grunt, Logan Isaac offers an opportunity for GIs, veterans, and those close to them to read Christian traditions as a soldier would—by and through the lived experiences of military service. This well-researched, meditative guide for Christians who have served their country delves deep into the Bible, while Isaac shares his own beliefs and thoughts on the life-altering experiences of battle. He attempts to fill the void most Christians in the military feel by providing theological resources to discern a better way of discipleship for GIs, affirming the nuance and complexity of armed service and the gifts GIs extend to Christians around the world.
Download or read book Wisdom and Knowledge of God As Told by a Grunt Speak Soldier written by Publius Marcus and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publius Marcus is soon to be 64 years old. And he started studying American politics since he was 13 years old when his non-blood brother was KIA in South Vietnam. The Author wishes me not to go into expounding details of his life but he will tell you that our Lord and our Saviour, Jesus Christ, instructed him, via that Still Small Voice, to write books in His name's sake, for his fellow Grunts of this world and especially for the American Grunt because we are all and have been in the same boat. If you don't know what a Grunt is, moors the pity. If you also don't know what a True Spook is, that is also moors the pity. More will be stated about this in the Introduction written by Publius Marcus, aka Snooper.Publius Marcus was saved by Grace when he was 6 years old at a Revival in which his Gospel singing Mother, a professional at it, was the guest soloist. For about a month she sang several times, The One Lost Sheep. Publius Marcus studied that parable spoken by Jesus Christ and one night the Holy Spirit spoke to him and he accepted Jesus Christ as his one and only Saviour.In the years since that time, Satan got a hold of his ass and screwed his life up because he didn't know how to tell that bastard to take a hike...he does now and expels that bastard at least 100 times a day. Why?Because in 2004 he was writing His books at his own paid-for web site now called snooperreport dot com (close to 26,000 articles/pictures), which has now morphed into actual books that Publius Marcus writes and self publishes (because he doesn't have the funds to publish them professionally). His books are like no other Christian book at all. Why?Because they are not politically correct nor multicultural nor are they filled with identity politics, the three malignant cancers of all societies. He has been a Grunt since he was 13 years old and didn't even know it. The Lord was training him since that time even when he had rejected Jesus Christ for some stupid reason or another - through all of that, Jesus was training up his Faith...and he didn't even know that either, until 2003.At times he has a foul-mouth but that's too bloody bad...his words, not mine. Jesus was a Grunt as well especially when He took a whip and beat the snot out of the morons screwing up His Temple. His books are written in Grunt Speak, naturally without the curse words in them and that is hard to do, trust me. His verbiage is written so that his fellow Grunts that are in our same boat will understand what Jesus has been saying in His Holy Words. When rockets, RPGs, IEDs, bullets and various other forms of death blows are heading in your direction, Grunts always come up with verbiage unfit for a woman to hear or witness. When the enemy is trying to kill you, there his no time to say, "Hey! Let us talk about this over a cup of coffee".Through his years of being a Spook, the Lord was training him as to what to say to his fellow Grunts whether they are active in the military, a Veteran or someone aspiring to become The Protectors of our Constitution, our Flag, our Country but first and foremost to learn about Jesus Christ. There are no atheists in any foxhole...you can trust me on that.His books are a testimony of his years as a Grunt. His books come from God's Verbiage, not some whining-assed ignorant preacher expressing its verbiage as the Words of God because they are not preaching/teaching God's Words - they aren't - they are preaching/teaching their own ignorant treatise of God's Words. His books will more than likely never be in a "Church" Christian bookstore because his books reflect that which Jesus Christ has commanded and not from what Mankind says "it" should be.Try a few of them and you will see what I mean. Several of you have purchased his books either in the actual book form or via EBook. Welcome to the world of a Christian Grunt. Thanks

Download or read book God Carlos written by Anthony C. Winkler and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tragicomic novel set in sixteenth-century Jamaica is a “gusty, boisterous, [and] entertaining . . . slice of historical fiction” (Alan Cheuse, NPR, All Things Considered). Winner of the 2014 Townsend Prize for Fiction A fortune-seeking band of ragtag sailors travel aboard the Santa Inez, a Spanish vessel bound for the newly discovered West Indies. She is an unusual explorer for her day, carrying no provisions for the settlers and no seed for planting crops, and manned by vain, arrogant men looking for gold in Jamaica. The crew expects to make landfall in paradise after over a month at sea. Meanwhile, the timid, innocent Arawaks—who walk around stark naked without embarrassment and who venerate their own customs and worship their own gods—think these newcomers must have come from heaven. The ensuing entanglement of culture, custom, and beliefs makes for a “comic, tragic, bawdy, sad, and provocative” novel (Library Journal). “Darkly irreverent . . . With a sharp tongue, Winkler, a native of Jamaica, deftly imbues this blackly funny satire with an exposé of colonialism’s avarice and futility.” —Publishers Weekly “Well-written . . . Winkler’s descriptions of sea and sky as seen from a sailing ship, and of the physical beauty of Jamaica, are spot-on and breathtaking.” —Historical Novel Review “A thoroughly engaging adventure story from a renowned Jamaican author, sure to enchant readers who treasure a fabulous tale exquisitely rendered.” —Library Journal “Every country (if she’s lucky) gets the Mark Twain she deserves, and Winkler is ours.” —Marlon James, author of Black Leopard, Red Wolf
Download or read book Grunt The Curious Science of Humans at War written by Mary Roach and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times / National Bestseller "America's funniest science writer" (Washington Post) Mary Roach explores the science of keeping human beings intact, awake, sane, uninfected, and uninfested in the bizarre and extreme circumstances of war. Grunt tackles the science behind some of a soldier's most challenging adversaries—panic, exhaustion, heat, noise—and introduces us to the scientists who seek to conquer them. Mary Roach dodges hostile fire with the U.S. Marine Corps Paintball Team as part of a study on hearing loss and survivability in combat. She visits the fashion design studio of U.S. Army Natick Labs and learns why a zipper is a problem for a sniper. She visits a repurposed movie studio where amputee actors help prepare Marine Corps medics for the shock and gore of combat wounds. At Camp Lemmonier, Djibouti, in east Africa, we learn how diarrhea can be a threat to national security. Roach samples caffeinated meat, sniffs an archival sample of a World War II stink bomb, and stays up all night with the crew tending the missiles on the nuclear submarine USS Tennessee. She answers questions not found in any other book on the military: Why is DARPA interested in ducks? How is a wedding gown like a bomb suit? Why are shrimp more dangerous to sailors than sharks? Take a tour of duty with Roach, and you’ll never see our nation’s defenders in the same way again.

Download or read book Not God Enough written by J.D. Greear and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor and author J. D. Greear reveals that the secret to a robust, passionate faith isn't getting all the right answers about God, but seeing God as the awesome, glorious, and infinite presence that He is. We like God small. We prefer a God who is safe, domesticated, who thinks like we think, likes what we like, and whom we can manage, predict, and control. A small God is convenient. Practical. Manageable. For us, thinking of God as so infinitely greater and wiser than we are and who would cause us to tremble in his presence is a leftover relic from an oppressive, archaic view of religion. But what if this small version of God we've created is holding us back from the greatest experience of our lives--from genuine, confident, world-transforming faith? In Not God Enough, J.D. reveals how to discover a God who: is big enough to handle your questions, doubts, and fears is not silent is worthy of worship wants to take you from boring to bold in your faith has a purpose and mission for you on earth is pursuing you right now The truth: God is big. Bigger than big. Bigger than all the words we use to say big. Only a God of infinite power, wisdom, and majesty can answer our deepest questions and meet our deepest longings. God is not just a slightly better, slightly smarter version of you. God is infinite and glorious, and an encounter with Him won't just change the way you think about your faith. It'll change your entire life.
