Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Grace Harlowe with the American Army on the Rhine' by Josephine Chase, readers are transported into the world of Grace Harlowe, a young woman who finds herself in the midst of World War I as part of the American Army on the Rhine. The book is written in a clear and engaging style, offering a mix of adventure, romance, and historical context. Chase skillfully weaves together a gripping narrative with vivid descriptions of the wartime setting, making the reader feel as if they are right alongside Grace in her experiences. This book is a prime example of early 20th-century American literature, showcasing themes of patriotism, courage, and the impact of war on individuals. Grace Harlowe serves as a strong female protagonist, defying gender norms of her time and embodying the spirit of resilience. Josephine Chase's personal experiences as a nurse during World War I likely influenced her writing, adding depth and authenticity to the story. I highly recommend 'Grace Harlowe with the American Army on the Rhine' to readers interested in historical fiction, female protagonists, and compelling wartime narratives.

Book excerpt: Why do Christians even mature Christians still sin so often? Why doesn't God set us free? We seem to notice more sin in our lives all the time, and we wonder if our progress is a constant disappointment to God. Where is the joy and peace we read about in the Bible? Speaking from her own struggles, Barbara Duguid turns to the writings of John Newton to teach us a theology with a purpose for our failure and guilt one that adjusts our expectations of ourselves. Her empathetic, honest approach lifts our focus from our own performance back to the God who is bigger than our failures and who uses them. Rediscover how God's extravagant grace makes the gospel once again feel like the good news it truly is
Download or read book On the Brink of Everything written by Parker J. Palmer and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This impassioned book invites readers to the deep end of life where authentic soul work and human transformation become pressing concerns.” —Publishers Weekly 2019 Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medalist in the Aging/Death & Dying Category From bestselling author Parker J. Palmer comes a brave and beautiful book for all who want to age reflectively, seeking new insights and life-giving ways to engage in the world. “Age itself,” he says, “is no excuse to wade in the shallows. It’s a reason to dive deep and take creative risks.” Looking back on eight decades of life—and on his work as a writer, teacher, and activist—Palmer explores what he’s learning about self and world, inviting readers to explore their own experience. In prose and poetry—and three downloadable songs written for the book by the gifted Carrie Newcomer—he meditates on the meanings of life, past, present, and future. With compassion and chutzpah, gravitas and levity, Palmer writes about cultivating a vital inner and outer life, finding meaning in suffering and joy, and forming friendships across the generations that bring new life to young and old alike. “This book is a companion for not merely surviving a fractured world, but embodying—like Parker—the fiercely honest and gracious wholeness that is ours to claim at every stage of life.” —Krista Tippett, New York Times-bestselling author of Becoming Wise “A wondrously rich mix of reality and possibility, comfort and story, helpful counsel and poetry, in the voice of a friend . . . This is a book of immense gratitude, consolation, and praise.” —Naomi Shihab Nye, National Book Award finalist

True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.
