Book excerpt: The North Slope of Alaska is a distant place. It is set high above the Arctic Circle, far away from where most people would ever dream of making a life. This region is marked by treacherous conditions. There are harsh extremes and wild transitions. People have always lived there though. The Inupiat are an ancient culture. Their way of life has, for countless millennia, tied to the land and the water and the animals that live there. At no time during Inupiat history has a transition been as drastic and marked by tragedy as the turn of the 20th century. The white man was coming north. He piloted great ships, breaking the ice, coming to harvest the abundant whales, walrus, and other important animals. One day a ship appeared on the horizon. And then, in what seemed like the blink of an eye, a way of life was changed forever. Paul Patkotak was born in the midst of that transition. Disease was rampant. Starvation was common. Animals teetered on the brink of extinction. The ancestral ways were dying out. Somehow, he survived. Patkotak eventually became known across the North Slope and beyond as "The Apostle of the North." He was a man with a deep connection to God and was used by Him to perform many miracles. Not only is this Patkotak's story. This is the story of his people.

Download or read book The Weigh Down Diet written by Gwen Shamblin and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2009-09-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isn’t your desire to overeat really spiritual hunger? “I can stop in the middle of a candy bar and have no desire to eat the second half if my stomach is not calling for it.” - Gwen Shamblin Do you eat and eat and never feel full? Rise above the magnetic pull of the refrigerator and turn to the bounty offered to thousands who have embraced a liberating weight-reduction program in churches across America. The Weigh Down Diet gives new hope to millions who have failed on conventional diets and guides readers to the richer satisfaction that comes not from food, but from faith. Gwen Shamblin’s The Weigh Down Diet is a groundbreaking approach to weight loss. People who have known no end to their hunger and who have no control over their late-night binges have learned through the Weigh Down Workshop that they can remove the irresistible desire for food. This is not a diet like others, because it is not food-focused. It contains chapters such as “It’s Not Genetics or Your Mother’s Fault,” “I Feel Hungry All the Time,” and “How to Eat Potato Chips and Chocolate.” So, as you can see, here is a very different approach to weight loss. Weigh Down gives back hope to dieters who will learn that God did not put chocolate or lasagna on Earth to torture us – but rather for our enjoyment!
Download or read book Atomic Salvation written by Doctor Tom Lewis and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-07-08 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So did not the atomic weapons bring about a great peace? Since the initial grateful acknowledgement of the success of the A-bomb attacks in ending World War II, there has been a steady reversal of opinion and sentiment: from a first hearty appreciation to a condemnation by many, of the United States for its actions. Atomic Salvation investigates the full situation of the times to a previously unplumbed depth. It examines documents from both Japanese and Allied sources, but it uses logical in-depth analysis to extend beyond the mere recounting of statistics. It charts the full extent of the possible casualties on both sides if a conventional assault akin to D-Day had gone ahead. The work is concerned solely with the military necessity to use the bombs, but it also investigates why that necessity has been increasingly challenged over the successive decades. Controversially, the book shows that the Japanese nation would have lost many millions of their people – likely around 28 million – if the nation had been attacked in the manner by which Germany was defeated: by amphibious assault; artillery and air attacks preceding infantry insertion, and finally by subduing the last of the defenders of the enemy capital. From the other side, the book investigates the enormous political pressure placed on America as a result of their military situation. The USA’s Truman Administration had little choice but to use the new weapon given the more than a million deaths Allied forces would undoubtedly have suffered through conventional assault. Through investigation of reactions then and since, Atomic Salvation charts reaction to the bombings. It looks briefly at a range of reactions through the decades and shows that there has been relentless pressure on the world to condemn what at the time was seen as the best, and the only, military solution to end the war. Never has such an exhaustive analysis been made of the necessity behind bringing World War II to a halt.
