Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governors in the United States are becoming prime policy makers in state and national politics. They preside over vast and increasingly important administrative structures through numerous appointments of key personnel and the management of growing budgets.

(Jim) Holshouser Jr. (1973D1977) - James G. (Jim) Martin (1985D1993) - James B. (Jim) Hunt Jr. (1977D1985; 1993D2001) ...and compares their performances in office with governors in other states.

Download or read book Finding Freedom in God s Promises written by Beth Gable Hicks and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After I wrote my last book, The Importance of Christian Friendships: In Good Times and in Bad, I began to think about how many of the attributes of Christian friendships are grounded in faith. This is the same faith that leads us to believe in God’s promises. I don’t know if you have ever tried to count how many promises there are in the Bible; they are almost impossible to numerate! Yet that did not dissuade me. I began to turn to the Bible and meditate on some of the more significant promises. Then I began to ask myself how my life would be different if I truly believed God’s promises? What if we all believed God’s promises and acted accordingly? I am convinced that if we have faith and believe in God’s holy nature, we can then accept that He is who He says He is. It is then just a short step to knowing that He will do what He says He will do, and we can trust in His promises. God’s promises are very precious. Not only do they remind us of His personal interest in our lives, but they provide us with hope and encouragement. I would also contend that accepting His promises turns religion from something that seems restrictive to something that is truly liberating. As you will read in the book, we can find freedom in God’s promises. We can find freedom from condemnation, freedom from want, freedom from fear, freedom from hopelessness, freedom from grief, and freedom from worry, just to name a few. I hope the reader will find renewed encouragement from this book and new faith in a faithful God.

Download or read book Yiddishlands written by David G. Roskies and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-24 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable family story and a whirlwind tour of Yiddish culture from 1906 to the present—updated in a second edition. This lively and irreverent memoir explores the settings where Yiddish—a language of song, rebellion, and eternal longing—has thrived: in the cabaret and café, the kitchen and classroom, the literary salon and mystical commune, the partisan brigade and on pilgrimage to Poland. Inspired by his mother’s recitations of their family saga in his youth, author David Roskies uncovers a tale of survival, intrigue, sacrifice, and divided loyalties that began over 4,000 miles away and two generations ago. A careful reconstruction of the details of his parents’ escape from Europe at the outbreak of the Second World War is juxtaposed with his personal odyssey in the postwar center of Yiddish culture that was Montreal. Roskies embarks on a search for other speakers of his mother tongue with very different stories to tell, which takes him on a journey through the upheavals of 1960s America, the struggle for Soviet Jewry, the Six-Day War and Yom Kippur War, the fall of the Iron Curtain, and the revival of Jewish life here, there, and everywhere. Along the way, he encounters great Yiddish poets and their widows, survivors of the Holocaust, artists, actors, scholars, and teachers. Yiddishlands is essential reading for students of the recent Jewish past and the living Yiddish present.
