Download or read book When God s Ways Make No Sense written by Dr. Larry Crabb and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It doesn't take too much living before we realize that life never goes quite the way we want it to. But when things get hard and we don't understand what God is doing, what is our first impulse? Is it to resist him and run away like Jonah? Or is it to trust him even while trembling in fear of suffering like Habakkuk? In this powerful exploration of God's often mysterious and counterintuitive ways, Dr. Larry Crabb challenges readers to seize the opportunities for growth and maturity that come our way when we experience troubles and failures. Rather than pushing back against adversity, he invites us to look closer at what God is doing in our lives when it feels like he is far from us. Unpacking the stories of two very different prophets, Crabb lights the way to a life of resting in the goodness of a God who is always working out his plan for our lives.

Download or read book Story Engineering written by Larry Brooks and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a good story or a screenplay great? The vast majority of writers begin the storytelling process with only a partial understanding where to begin. Some labor their entire lives without ever learning that successful stories are as dependent upon good engineering as they are artistry. But the truth is, unless you are master of the form, function and criteria of successful storytelling, sitting down and pounding out a first draft without planning is an ineffective way to begin. Story Engineering starts with the criteria and the architecture of storytelling, the engineering and design of a story--and uses it as the basis for narrative. The greatest potential of any story is found in the way six specific aspects of storytelling combine and empower each other on the page. When rendered artfully, they become a sum in excess of their parts. You'll learn to wrap your head around the big pictures of storytelling at a professional level through a new approach that shows how to combine these six core competencies which include: • Four elemental competencies of concept, character, theme, and story structure (plot) • Two executional competencies of scene construction and writing voice The true magic of storytelling happens when these six core competencies work together in perfect harmony. And the best part? Anyone can do it!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you like it or not, if you have a dog you are training it. The question is are you training it for good or are you training it for bad. Training starts before training starts. How you live with your dog dictates how your dog lives with you. They learn from everything we do, good and bad. They miss nothing. They know us better than we know ourselves. They learn from everything we don't do. Obedience commands don't create a well behaved dog. Raising a dog and teaching along the way does. No parent says they are going outside to train their kids. We just raise them and teach them 24 hours a day and try to provide guidance so eventually our children can make the right decisions on their own. Dogs are no different. Live right with them. They are not children. They are animals and must be respected as such. And they are a precious gift that are not here long enough so enjoy every minute and never take them for granted.

Download or read book Voices from the Catholic Worker written by Rosalie Riegle Troester and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich oral history weaves a tapestry of memories and experience from interviews, roundtable discussions, personal memoirs, and thorough research. In the sixtieth anniversary year of the Catholic Worker, Rosalie Riegle Troester reconfirms the diversity and commitment of a movement that applies basic Christianity to social problems. Founded in 1933 by Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin, the Catholic Worker has continued to apply the principles of voluntary poverty and nonviolence to changing social and political realities. Over 200 interviews with Workers from all over the United States reveal how people came to this movement, how they were changed by it, and how they faced contradictions between the Catholic Worker philosophy and the call of contemporary life. Vivid memoirs of Dorothy Day, Peter Maurin, and Ammon Hennacy are interwoven with accounts of involvement with labor unions, war resistance, and life on Catholic Worker farms. The author also addresses the Worker's relationship with the Catholic Church and with the movement's wrenching debates over abortion, homosexuality, and the role of women. Author note: Rosalie Riegle Troester is Professor of English at Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan.

When they are forced to move out of their home, Doreen is thrilled to find the perfect house for a bargain price. But is the new Addison House too good to be true? Their reclusive neighbor hints at the house’s grisly history and warns they’ll regret the move, but it's just what Doreen was looking for: a big, inexpensive, and secluded refuge for the children. Almost from the start, unexplained accidents and strange occurrences plague Doreen and her charges. And some of the children are showing disturbing personality changes. Why is 13-year-old Karen, who loves make up and the latest fashions, suddenly insisting such things are “evil”? What made 10-year-old Randy turn from a happy, rambunctious little boy into a child obsessed with only the darkest passages of the Bible? And who is the mysterious, beautiful woman in black that only 5-year-old Cindy seems to see? To complicate matters, Doreen can’t help falling for her handsome neighbor, Brendan Delacorte, who offers protection and always seems to be there when Doreen needs him. Can he help her solve the mystery of Addison House, before unseen evil destroys all that Doreen has loved and worked for? The only thing that can save them from destruction is to discover the secret of the woman in black who commands them all to COME DOWN INTO DARKNESS.
