Book excerpt: Get ready to relearn everything you thought you knew about what a successful career path can look like.

Far beyond the artisan trades, today’s apprenticeships can be found at companies like Volkswagen and Siemens. -Occupational learning: Refresh or reboot your skill sets through on-the-job training or online education. In Job U, you’ll learn about these paths to rewarding occupations; where to find them and how to parlay them into the best paying job in any field. And along the way, you’ll meet individuals of all ages who have attained their “dream jobs” through a non-traditional education: from an emergency air paramedic, to a lead mechanic of a racecar team, to an engineer of complex gas turbine generators, to a bestselling cookbook author. Whether you are recent high school or college graduate, or well along in your career journey, Job U will help you find your way to a more secure and prosperous future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revealing narrative, Micheleangela Brilliance (= =) has precisely interpreted what has been written in the Arrowhead Crown of Stars, by overcoming faith due to revelation time, and decrypting the hidden secrets held within. She has invited God’s chosen people’s space program and aerospace companies to maneuver their satellites or advance technologies in order to resolve and suppress any speculation. When the facts are analyzed, people could rise above civilization type 0, rather than 99 years later. God’s chosen people will be capable of determining the necessary equations from invisible dimensions, where these feathering creatures originated (evidences)? Being rescued from the Biblical Vietnam War by a multitude of unforgettable superheroes, the race in space continues. A retreat does not make us weak. The outcome can be more powerful when we declassify it. Revealing ancient Hebrew documentation, she brings to life the torn pages, and exposes the Vatican’s dark secret (false doctrine, St. Mary crown with 12 stars), expunged and/or sequestered prophecy from St. John, and the Book of Revelation.

Download or read book American Televangelism and Participatory Cultures written by Denis J. Bekkering and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines unintended participatory cultures and media surrounding the American televangelists Robert Tilton and Tammy Faye Bakker-Messner. It brings to light heavily ironic fan followings; print, audio, and video projects; public access television parodies; and other comedic participatory practices associated with these controversial preachers from the 1980s onwards. For Tilton’s ministry, some of these activities and artifacts would prove irksome and even threatening, particularly an analog video remix turned online viral sensation. In contrast, Bakker-Messner’s “campy” fans – gay men attracted to her “ludicrous tragedy” – would provide her unexpected opportunities for career rehabilitation. Denis J. Bekkering challenges “supply-side” religious economy and branding approaches, suggestions of novelty in religion and “new” media studies, and the emphasis on sincere devotion in research on religion and fandom. He also highlights how everyday individuals have long participated in public negotiations of Christian authenticity through tongue-in-cheek play with purported religious “fakes.”

Book excerpt: Faith and Frontiers is a story about how trusting in God leads a man and his wife into unchartered territories and allows them to soar to new heights. In his inspirational memoirs, Eli Miller shares how even as a young Amish boy in Ohio he knew his path lay outside the community. Leaving his home at the tender age of seventeen, and with very little real-life experience, Eli soon finds his life is off track – so much so that even meeting and marrying the love of his life is not enough to settle him down. But then in a moment of despair, an encounter with the Holy Spirit turns his life around and sets him on a path to share the Word of God with others. As Eli continues his spiritual journey and becomes an ordained minister, he and his wife take a leap of faith and become founding members of a Christian community that embraces a frontier lifestyle in the wilderness of Northern British Columbia. After a multitude of adventures, and several years and children later, Eli then leans into his next calling and moves back to “civilization” where he becomes influential in the development and growth of several congregations and begins to lecture and minister across five continents. Told with humour and sincerity, Eli recounts the trials and tribulations of a lifetime of living on faith and shares the message of hope that he has spent his whole life proclaiming.

Download or read book God over Good written by Luke Norsworthy and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's hard to say that God is good when God isn't always what we expect good to be. A good father wouldn't make it so difficult to get to know him, would he? And if God is all-powerful, wouldn't he ensure that we never suffered? Either our understanding of God is incorrect, or our definition of good is inadequate. In a world that is messy and a church that is imperfect, it's easy to let our faith be lost. But that doesn't mean we have to lose God. It means we must consider the fact that perhaps our idealized expectations are just plain wrong. With transparency about his own struggles with cynicism and doubt, pastor Luke Norsworthy helps frustrated Christians and skeptics trade their confinement of God in an anemic definition of good for confidence in the God who is present in everything, including our suffering.
