Download or read book Luminescence Volume 1 written by C. K. Barrett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is found in this series unveils an entirely different side of C. K. Barrett, a side one might never have known about if one had knowledge only of his famous commentaries and monographs. Herein lies a goodly selection of Kingsley's sermons preached largely in small- and medium-sized Methodist churches in the northeast of England, though often elsewhere in England and around the world. Fred Barrett was not the scholar his son was, but on close inspection, one can most definitely see the impact of the father on the son when it came to preaching. It seems right to include as many sermons from both of these men as we can in this series. One thing sorely lacking in much preaching these days is in-depth engagement with both the biblical text and one's tradition and theology. The sermons in these volumes demonstrate what such preaching can look like. This first volume presents 100 sermons on the Gospels and Acts.

Download or read book The Life Legend of a Rebel Leader Wat Tyler written by Stephen Basdeo and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1381, England was on the brink - the poor suffered the effects of war, the Black Death, and Poll Tax. At this time the brave Wat Tyler arose to lead the commoners, forming an army who set off to London to meet with King Richard II and present him with a list of grievances and demands for redress. Tyler was treacherously struck down by the Lord Mayor. His head hacked from his shoulders, pierced on a spike, and made a spectacle on London Bridge. Yet he lived on through the succeeding centuries as a radical figure, the hero of English Reformers, Revolutionaries, and Chartists.The Life and Legend of a Rebel Leader: Wat Tyler examines the eponymous hero's literary afterlives. Unlike other medieval heroes such as King Arthur or King Alfred, whose post medieval manifestations were supposed to inspire pride in the English past, if Wat Tyler's name was invoked by the people, the authorities had something to fear.

Download or read book To Make a Killing written by Robert Stephens and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the wildest, most spectacular decades in American history, the 1920s were a period of unprecedented growth and mass consumerism. In the New Era, people drank in speakeasies, danced to jazz, idolized gangsters, and bet their life savings on stocks. Born and raised in a small Canadian town, Arthur Cutten went to Chicago in 1890 with ninety dollars to his name. Through utter ruthlessness, he amassed a fortune trading in grain futures and stocks. Cutten was heralded as the modern Midas, and his every move was followed by the masses, who believed they could get rich quick. But everything changed after the crash of 1929. The heroes of prosperity became the villains of the Great Depression. Determined to crack down on the “banksters,” the Roosevelt administration launched an all-out attack on those it blamed for the collapse – and Cutten was at the top of the list. A US Senate committee probed how he manipulated stock prices. The Grain Futures Administration moved to bar him from trading. And the Bureau of Internal Revenue indicted him for income tax evasion. But the wily operator won on every count: he emerged from the Senate investigation unscathed, maintained his grain trading privileges after a victory in the Supreme Court, and left almost nothing for the tax collectors upon his death. To Make a Killing tells the tale of Cutten’s journey to fabulous wealth, the forces that propelled him, and the fascinating characters in his life.

Book excerpt: A chance discovery could not have come at a worse time… Diplomats running from one war stumbled across the ghost of another. Deep within a remote ruin lies a forgotten treasure, an eye plucked from a god, brimming with the power of a collapsing star. With war still raging, the Triple Crown can spare little to investigate such rumors and decides to wait. The College of Wintermoore and the Church of Builders are not so patient. Rivals for centuries, each desires the knowledge of such forgotten relics for themselves. The College puts together one team, of an arrogant mage, an expendable con man, and a wiry ranger, while the Church puts together another, of a famed paladin running from his past, and a young chaplain with a secret of her own. A race is on, to win a danger none are prepared to face, with the will of the gods as their trophy, and the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Eye of Syl is the first book of the Sylmanara trilogy, but can be read as a standalone novel. Filled with rich characters, deep worldbuilding, and a sprawling, episodic plot, Eye of Syl is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

Download or read book Please Don t Kill Yourself written by Sandra de Sarigny and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please Don't Kill Yourself is about the indescribable pain that is experienced when first hearing about your beloved's suicide. A knifelike pain enters the heart and seems to turn with every unfolding of the circumstances that led to this untimely death. You know that life will never be the same yet you're compelled to know why? In this devastated state, no stone is left unturned to expose the causes until a picture emerges that implicates many circumstances. These include hijacking at knife and gunpoint, charges of embezzlement, adultery, social ineptitude, and sheer tragedy, hopefully interspersed with a dash of humor. A new entity of light replaces the darkness in the heart and truth gives way to hope until the survivor of suicide is able to "hug" the sorrow to themselves while cherishing their beloved's memory and their renewed life. While writing, the author observed families who can't understand why their child killed themselves. Veterans are killing themselves, as are drug addicts and many who can't cope with living. With the best will in the world, no human intervention can change those thoughts and minds. It is only with the "all-comprehensive gift" of God that there is hope for the future.

Download or read book Killing Goldfinger written by Wensley Clarkson and published by Quercus. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KILLING GOLDFINGER charts the extraordinary rise and spectacular bullet-riddled fall of John Palmer, the richest, most powerful criminal ever to have emerged from the modern British underworld. During the late 1990s, Palmer was rated as rich as The Queen by the Sunday Times Rich List. Palmer earned his nickname Goldfinger after smelting (in his back garden) tens of millions of pounds worth of stolen gold bullion from the 20th century's most lucrative heist; the Brink's-Mat robbery. Palmer then used his share of the millions to become the vicious overlord of a vast illegal timeshare property empire in Tenerife. At the same time, Goldfinger financed huge international drugs shipments as well as some of the most notorious UK robberies of the past 30 years, including the £50m Securitas heist in Kent in 2006 and, many believe, the Hatton Garden heist in 2015. Palmer vowed to hunt down all his underworld enemies. But in the end it was those same criminals who decided to bring his life to an end. Murdered in June 2015, with charges of fraud, money laundering and worse pending, this book tells his murky story for the first time. As outrageous and bullet-riddled as the hit Netflix series Narcos, Killing Goldfinger tells the true story of Britain's underworld kingpin, who turned the sunshine holiday island of Tenerife into his very own Crime Incorporated and then paid the ultimate price.
