Download or read book Journey to Freedom Poems Prayers and Promises written by Jon Wood and published by Essence Pub. This book was released on 2005 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features an old man and his promise. It is a remarkable story of inspiration, interpretation, and promise. It goes beyond the universal definition for a promise by explaining how to create an environment for keeping promises, acknowledging that life has its own set of God created promises, and by using a metaphor to help demonstrate the ease of making a promise in contrast to keeping the same. The book cover is a reproduction of a watercolor, named I Promise, painted by John Quanrud. John is a Northwest Artist, and a Signature Member of the National Watercolour Society. Journey to Freedom is a heart-warming reflection on the experience, in the depths of one's soul, of taking God at His word. Yet because the author's words are faithfully grounded in God's Word, they apply to all who desire to live a life filled with promise, purpose and praise. I felt especially drawn to the tenderness of the autobiographical stories set within the context of the poignancy of the author's current situation. The book is a testimony to God's goodness in times of trial and to His faithfulness in turning sorrow to joy. - Kirk E. Farnsworth, Ph.D., author of Wounded Workers and All Churches Great and Small Jon Wood purposefully takes the reader along with him on his journey to discover the wonderful depths of the promises of God. He gently and lovingly moves us from simply knowing Jesus Christ as Savior to finding how wonderful it is to make Him truly Lord of our life. Jon's gentle style reflects the gentleness of his own spirit that is so completely in love with his Lord. - Katie Fortune, author of Discover Your God-Given Gifts In Jon Wood's Journey to Freedom he parts the curtains to giveus all glimpses into his travels to wholeness in Christ. Through everyday incidents-common to all of us-we see God's hand working through the mundane to accomplish the divine. - Marge McRae Jon Wood is a 2000 graduate of City University, Bellevue, Washington. In chapter one (Inspiration Taken from the Old Man) he explains what inspired him to write this book. He writes, I finished the majority of the book the same month that my wife was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Since the diagnosis, we have experienced so many blessings, in so many well-orchestrated situations, in such a short period of time; I am convinced that we are in the shadow of His wings. I feel writing this book was no coincidence. I believe God used this past year to prepare us for the road ahead. My wish is that this book will serve as a daily reminder for those readers who want to find time to celebrate, reaffirm, or pray about their promises. Jon and Linda live in Kingston, Washington. Their home church is Bayside Community Church.

Download or read book A Monk Swimming written by Malachy McCourt and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this darkly humorous New York Times–bestselling memoir, the Irish American writer and actor shares charming stories from his first decade in the US. Malachy McCourt left behind a childhood of poverty and painful memories of his father and mother in Limerick, Ireland, when he followed his brother, Frank, to America in 1952. In A Monk Swimming, McCourt recounts the decade that followed. With not much else to his name other than his sharp wit and knack for storytelling, McCourt was unsure what he would do after arriving in New York City. He worked as a longshoreman on the Brooklyn docks, became the first celebrity bartender in a Manhattan saloon, performed on stage with the Irish Players, and told tales to Jack Paar on The Tonight Show. Although McCourt gained success, money, women, and, eventually, children of his own, he still carried memories of the past with him. So, he fled again. He found himself in the Manhattan Detention Complex, otherwise known as the Tombs. He was arrested several times: poolside in Beverly Hills, in Zurich with gold-smugglers, and again in Calcutta with sex workers. McCourt’s journey also took him to Paris, Rome, and even Limerick again, until finally he was forced to grapple with his past. Praise for A Monk Swimming “[A] funny, oddly winning book.” —The New York Times “A rollicking good read that, as the Irish say, would make a dead man laugh.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer “Malachy McCourt, who has habitually regurgitated English in glorious colors to his fellow Irishmen and New Yorkers, here makes his vivid, whimsical, raucous, murderous joy and voice available to the rest of us in tales of riot and glory which build on the story of the McCourts’ early life so dazzlingly told in Angela’s Ashes by his brother Frank.” —Thomas Keneally, author of the international bestseller Schindler’s List
