Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oh, that I had Wings like a Dove By: Denise L. Folks, Ph.D. David, the son of Jesse called out to the Lord for help from his enemies. The neglect and abuse he suffered from the man he had grown to love and respect, King Saul, caused him to run for his life; to seek a hiding place and to trust in the Lord more than ever. In the book of Psalms 55:1-8, David cries out to the only one who could save him. Distraught, angry and fearful, he exclaims, “Oh that I had wings like a dove, I would fly away, and be at rest; truly, I would flee far away; I would lodge in the wilderness; I would hurry to find a shelter for myself from the raging wind and tempest.” Like David, there are so many children crying out for help and refuge from adults in whom they trusted for direction, love, loyalty and security. But, their cries are camouflaged by hostility, bitterness and depression. “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!” – Touching the life of a child, finds a resting place in the life of children that lends an attentive ear to their pain, a strong shoulder to bear the weight of discouragement, and an open heart of flesh to embrace their feeling of emptiness. Dr. Folks asks the questions: Who can they run to? Where can they hide? What can ease their pain? When will the unjust suffering cease? How can they see God through a world that’s destined to keep them blinded to the truth? She uses poetry, quotes, and factual information to answer these questions and to shed light on the fact that adults must return to God in hopes of saving our children for a better today and tomorrow. Dr. Folks is the founder of Positive Youth Expressions, Inc. Educational Institute in the state of Maryland where she facilitates formal and informal educational programs for children, youth and families. She also co-pastors the Greater Church of the Risen Savior in Baltimore, Maryland with her husband Bishop Victor M. Folks. Dr. Folks conducts conferences, seminars and workshops on topics dealing with children, youth and families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This young adult fantasy debut about love, found family, and healing is “a fantastical ode to the Golden City’s postpunk era,” told through the eyes of a Mexican-American girl (Entertainment Weekly). “Complex and beautiful, blending folklore, San Franciscan history, the music scene, vampires, magic . . . hard to put down.” —School Library Journal Seventeen-year-old Xochi is alone in San Francisco, running from her painful past: the mother who abandoned her, the man who betrayed her. Then one day, she meets Pallas, a precocious twelve-year-old who lives with her rockstar family in one of the city’s storybook Victorians. Xochi accepts a position as Pallas’s live-in governess and quickly finds her place in the girl’s tight-knit household, which operates on a free-love philosophy and easy warmth despite the band’s growing fame. But on the night of the Vernal Equinox, as a concert afterparty rages in the house below, Xochi and Pallas perform a riot-grrrl ritual in good fun, accidentally summoning a pair of ancient beings bound to avenge the wrongs of Xochi’s past. She would do anything to preserve her new life, but with the creatures determined to exact vengeance on those who’ve hurt her, no one is safe—not the family Xochi’s chosen, nor the one she left behind.
Download or read book The Train That Had Wings written by M. Mukundan and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Train That Had Wings presents modern life in Kerala in terms of a shared but tragically compromised humanity. Mukundan dares to look beneath the routines and facades of everyday life in order to probe depth of sin, greed, and hypocrisy but also to rediscover what brings joy and hope. Sixteen short story translations and a critical introduction, offering examples of Mukundan's realistic, existentialist, psychedelic, and parabolic stories, show his range and talent for the very short story. If Hawthorne wrote “twice told tales,” Mukundan writes half-told tales, stories that jump in the middle, stomp around for just a minute, and leap away almost before the reader can settle in. Half-told, but a powerful and infectious half.

Book excerpt: From three bestselling authors comes an interwoven tale about a trio of World War II nurses stationed in the South Pacific who wage their own battle for freedom and survival. The Philippines, 1941. When U.S. Navy nurse Eleanor Lindstrom, U.S. Army nurse Penny Franklin, and Filipina nurse Lita Capel forge a friendship at the Army Navy Club in Manila, they believe they’re living a paradise assignment. All three are seeking a way to escape their pasts, but soon the beauty and promise of their surroundings give way to the heavy mantle of war. Caught in the crosshairs of a fight between the U.S. military and the Imperial Japanese Army for control of the Philippine Islands, the nurses are forced to serve under combat conditions and, ultimately, endure captivity as the first female prisoners of the Second World War. As their resiliency is tested in the face of squalid living arrangements, food shortages, and the enemy's blatant disregard for the articles of the Geneva Convention, the women strive to keep their hope— and their fellow inmates—alive, though not without great cost. In this sweeping story based on the true experiences of nurses dubbed "the Angels of Bataan," three women shift in and out of each other's lives through the darkest days of the war, buoyed by their unwavering friendship and distant dreams of liberation. "A novel rich in historical detail that immerses readers in the dangers and deprivation WWII nurses suffered in the Pacific, wrapped up with a hopeful ending." -Booklist

Book excerpt: "July 24, 2008, my wife and I sat in Dr. Doug Flora's office. The doctor entered the room, turned, and looked at us and said, 'I know folks, this really sucks! You have esophageal cancer. It is what is called a clinical T3N1 tumor. It's extremely serious.' He then went into a detailed explanation of Dr. Saeed's findings. He sketched a picture of my esophagus and stomach on a white sheet of paper that covered the examining table and pointed at the base of my stomach and esophagus and drew a circle where the tumor had been detected. He said that the tumor's size was 2.0 mm. I told him that I had been taking long walks to get a suntan and to lose weight and had been proud to lose seventeen pounds. He said, 'The cancer took your seventeen pounds-it wasn't the walking.' Join author Paul D. Jackson, Jr. in If A Frog Had Wings as he reflects on how his life experiences from childhood to adulthood had prepared him for the fight of his life. Share in the humor, heartbreak and steadfast stubbornness in Paul's love of life that have helped him to overcome great adversity and come out standing.

Download or read book English Hymns of the Nineteenth Century written by Richard Arnold and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English Hymns of the Nineteenth Century brings together for the first time the most popular and widely used English hymns from that period, continuing the work of its foregoing volume, English Hymns of the Eighteenth Century, the genre's formative period. This annotated and edited collection of nearly 200 hymns (with author introductions and a general historical introduction) will be of inestimable value to scholars, students, and laypersons from several disciplines and interests: from hymnology to church and social history and theology, from political science to literature to popular culture. Hymns were the most widely read and memorized verbal structures from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries - and in the nineteenth century the hymn became not only the property of dissenters, but also of representatives from the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church. This anthology, therefore, provides unique and highly significant insights into the culture, beliefs, and habits of thought of a people and their spiritual leaders.
