Book excerpt: "NOT TODAY," was part of a battle cry of John C. Lafferty's Marine unit in Vietnam. He could not forget the meaning of this battle cry nor of his comrades left behind. Twelve years after the war he confides in his sister and tells her his story. Then, she realizes the change in him was not because of the horrors of war, but of the courage, sacrifices and the bonding that takes place between comrades in arms. This wasn't anything she could have guessed nor would she even have been able to understand had he not told her his story. This is when she realizes she wouldn't want to change him back, even if she could. "NOT TODAY," is based on true events from a Vietnam War Vet. The story is narrated by a woman who saw a change in her brother after the war and her diary of conversations with him. The bulk of the story takes place in Vietnam and it covers the politics and the attitudes of people, both in war and after. It is about the real cost of war and the attitudes of one Marine's heart. All the people and names in the story are fictional, but the characters are as real as the events.

Book excerpt: When writing about fifty years of any human life, one can only be humbled by the period of history through which so many of us survive. Life takes so many turns that the cultural changes, unfelt from day-to-day, feel like seismic shifts when surmised and stockpiled. Any man’s life is one that changes so much every year. You can go from looking in the mirror at someone you wish to grow old when you’re a teenager to wishing you were younger in a heartbeat. Some of the memories that you’ll read may strike you as unbelievable – they do to me recalling them. But no matter how thrilling, traumatic or incredible the events of my life have been, I have not “embellished or exaggerated” in any of the telling of these events. With my co-writer, I have constructed my memories which stands up to the time elapsed, even if sometimes my life has felt too fantastic to be real. In short, every word of what you’re about to read is the truth…whether I wish it was or not.
Download or read book Why Not Today written by Matthew Cork and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2013-06-24 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a hotel room in Bangalore, a California pastor wrestles with God—and himself . . . “I draw in a long, slow breath of Indian air. The room is dark and still. I have only one thing more to say: ‘Lord, I’m in. I am so in.’” When Matthew Cork, lead pastor of a church in a comfortable corner of Orange County, first encountered the Dalit (untouchable) people of India on a visit to Hyderabad, he was shaken to his core. Children begging at the airport. Elderly women sweeping gutters. Families living in discarded concrete pipes. He learned of the systemic bondage they had been in for thousands of years. As Matthew came face-to-face with this suffering, he knew God was summoning him to help. He knew that the greatest hope for the Dalits lay in educating their children—something long closed to them. So God gave Matthew a vision that would transform him and his church, taking them on a journey from the suburban comfort of the US to the slums and villages of India. Today a new movement is sweeping over the world, a movement to set oppressed people free—free from slavery, sex-trafficking, poverty, and political and social injustice. Why Not Today is an invitation—and a challenge—to join in the efforts to bring freedom and hope to people suffering all over world. Perhaps God has stirred a passion in you to help the poor and overcome injustice. This story shows what God can do when we are willing to respond to that stirring. Why not start today?

And at the front, CEO Nick Hart, the world's coldest—and ok, unbelievably sexy—tech badass. The man hasn't smiled in the history of ever, he runs a tight ship filled with miserable employees, and gosh, he just really does not love feedback. Especially from me. Development updates, acquisition delays, and...holy hell, why does he keep looking at me? I don't work for him. I work for his brother. Which is good, because otherwise I'd spend every meeting secretly wondering what actually lies beneath that cool, aloof demeanor. Like, is he an uptight geek in the boardroom...and a sexy-assed freak in the bedroom? He'd better not find out I'm the one stuffing the company suggestion box. What's so wrong with a Valentine's Day Social, anyway? But the fact that my notes are less professional and more entertainment is one seriously dangerous game. Because if he ever found out what I really thought of him, there'd be all kinds of sweet, delicious hell to pay... Each book in the Harts series is STANDALONE: * Miles and Miles of You * Not Today, Cupid

Download or read book Today or Not Today written by Marcus Towell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title is a clue to the structure of the novel, for alternate chapters relate the relationships and adventures of two couples. Odd-numbered chapters tell of a young William Shakespeare during his lost years and Mary, Queen of Scots, the older woman, who is imprisoned in England by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth. The even-numbered chapters concern a modern-day pairSam, a forty-something writer whose icon is Mary Stuart, and Kate, a PhD student of Shakespeare. Their romances develop in parallel whilst at the same time leaving and discovering clues as to the 16th century couples Catholicism. Sam and Kate, acting as literary detectives, unveil facts and they hypothesize on the possibility that Shakespeare was a recusant Roman Catholic, which was forbidden in those times. They also suggest ways in which his union with Queen Mary could have inspired and influenced the future playwrights oeuvre, both in his subtle incorporation of Catholic doctrine and in other facets of his plays, such as cross-dressing, early feminist traits, and in the depiction of age differences in relationships. The ending of the novel draws together the four characters in a surprising finale.
Download or read book You re Not Enough And That s Okay written by Allie Beth Stuckey and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the sharpest Christian voices of her generation and host of the podcast Relatable comes a framework for escaping our culture of trendy narcissism—and embracing God instead. We're told that the key to happiness is self-love. Instagram influencers, mommy bloggers, self-help gurus, and even Christian teachers promise that if we learn to love ourselves, we'll be successful, secure, and complete. But the promise doesn't deliver. Instead of feeling fulfilled, our pursuit of self-love traps us in an exhausting cycle: as we strive for self-acceptance, we become addicted to self-improvement. The truth is we can't find satisfaction inside ourselves because we are the problem. We struggle with feelings of inadequacy because we are inadequate. Alone, we are not good enough, smart enough, or beautiful enough. We're not enough--period. And that's okay, because God is. The answer to our insufficiency and insecurity isn't self-love, but God's love. In Jesus, we're offered a way out of our toxic culture of self-love and into a joyful life of relying on him for wisdom, satisfaction, and purpose. We don't have to wonder what it's all about anymore. This is it. This book isn't about battling your not-enoughness; it's about embracing it. Allie Beth Stuckey, a Christian, conservative new mom, found herself at the dead end of self-love, and she wants to help you combat the false teachings and self-destructive mindsets that got her there. In this book, she uncovers the myths popularized by our self-obsessed culture, reveals where they manifest in politics and the church, and dismantles them with biblical truth and practical wisdom.
