Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bobbi Radcliffe wants to have a normal, boring life with kids, a husband, and a white picket fence. Her problem? She spends all her time working, and there’s no time to meet said husband. When she hears about Dr. Lachele—a matchmaker who introduces people at the altar—she believes her prayers have been answered. It would be so much easier to just let someone else do the work and for her to marry whoever comes along. Gary Grant is living his dream—a small home of his own, and a successful restaurant. The only thing missing is a wife and kids, but…how do you meet someone when you work seventy hours per week? When a customer casually mentions she met her husband through a matchmaking service who introduces people at the altar, he immediately calls the business owner and asks to be the next client. Both Gary and Bobbi are thrilled that they don’t have to go through the hassle of meeting a bunch of people to find the right one. The first few hours of marriage are perfect, and they both know they’ve done the right thing. But when their flight for their honeymoon is postponed over and over due to a blizzard, they have to get to know one another from the confines of the Salt Lake Airport. Will they be able to fight through petty annoyances? Or will the two of them feel the need to part ways so early in their marriage?

Download or read book Lost Legacy written by Irene M. Bates and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joseph Smith's father, Joseph Smith Sr., first occupied the hereditary office of Presiding Patriarch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Thereafter, it became a focal point for struggle between those appointed and those born to leadership positions. This new edition of Lost Legacy updates the award-winning history of the office. Irene M. Bates and E. Gary Smith chronicle the ongoing tensions around the existence of a Presiding Patriarch as a source of conflict between the Smith family and the rest of the leadership. Their narrative continues through the dawning realization that familial authority was incompatible with the LDS's structured leadership and the decision to abolish the office of Patriarch in 1979. This second edition, revised and supplemented by author E. Gary Smith, includes a new chapter on Eldred G. Smith, the General Authority Emeritus who was the final Presiding Patriarch. It also corrects the text and provides a new preface by E. Gary Smith.

Book excerpt: Lost and Found shares the stories of several young men becoming parents in an era where family is being re-defined-while our understanding of what it means to be a father, in particular, is in flux. It offers a model of the "good-enough father" to counter the all-or-nothing stereotypes of the deadbeat or absentee dad versus the ideal father figure popularized in old sitcoms. The authors also offer detailed descriptions of what can be done to help young fathers and mothers create stable home environments for their children, whether the parents are together or not.

Download or read book Faithful Labourers A Reception History of Paradise Lost 1667 1970 written by John Leonard and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faithful Labourers surveys and evaluates existing criticism of John Milton's epic Paradise Lost, tracing the major debates as they have unfolded over the past three centuries. Eleven chapters split over two volumes consider the key debates in Milton criticism, including discussion of Milton's style, his use of the epic genre, and his references to Satan, God, innocence, the fall, sex, nakedness, and astronomy. Volume one attends to questions of style and genre. The first three chapters examine the longstanding debate about Milton's grand style and the question of whether it forfeits the native resources of English. Early critics saw Milton as the pre-eminent poet of 'apt Numbers' and 'fit quantity', whose verse is 'apt' in the specific sense of achieving harmony between sound and sense; twentieth-century anti-Miltonists faulted Milton for divorcing sound from sense; late twentieth-century theorists have denied the possibility that sound can 'enact' sense. These are extreme changes of critical perception, and yet the story of how they came about has never been told. These chronological chapters explain the roots of these changes and, in doing so, engage with the enduring theoretical question of whether it is possible for sound to enact sense. Volume two considers interpretative issues, and each of the six chapters traces a key debate in the interpretation of Paradise Lost. They engage with such questions as whether Paradise Lost is an epic or an anti-epic, whether Satan runs away with the poem (and whether it is good that he does so), what it means to be innocent (or fallen), and whether Milton's poetry is hostile to women. A final chapter on the universe of Paradise Lost makes the provocative argument that almost every commentator since the middle of the eighteenth century has led readers astray by presenting Milton's universe as the medieval model of Ptolemaic spheres. This assumption, which has fostered the notion that Milton was backward-looking or anti-intellectual, rests upon a misreading of three satirical lines. Milton's earliest critics recognized that he unequivocally embraces the new astronomy of Kepler and Bruno.
Download or read book Lessons of the Lost written by Scott C. Hammond PhD and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wilderness can be unforgiving and dangerous, yet fill our souls with awe and wonder. It can overwhelm us with beauty and stun us with fear, lift our spirits to the highest highs and send us crashing to the floor of creation. The wilderness is a classroom where we learn to survive, thrive and sometimes die. At some point in our lives, we have all been lost in a wilderness of some kindwhether literal or metaphoricalwithout any direction on how to find our way back home. Some have faced survival decisions in community disasters or personal trauma. Some have been lost in work, wandered in careers and professions. Some have been lost in relationships, crippling addictions, health challenges, or grief. Scott Hammond, a volunteer search and rescuer, knows that people who have been lostin the wilderness, in the workplace, or in lifecan teach us how to go beyond survival and thrive, regardless of the nature of our personal wildernesses. Through his experience rescuing others and real-life stories, Hammond provides valuable lessons designed to help those who are lost. These narratives communicate that small things matter, that no one is ever lost alone, and that movement creates opportunity. Being lost is not a geographic problem, but a mental and spiritual problem. Lost people may be deprived of the basics of food, water, and shelter, but they are first deprived of meaning. Restoring that meaning is the first step toward hope, and hope is the beacon that leads you home.
