Download or read book Waking the Dead written by John Eldredge and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waking the Dead—newly revised and updated for these trying times—reveals the secret of finding a full life, identifying the fierce battle over our hearts, and embracing all that God has in store. Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” That’s the offer of Christianity, from God himself. Jesus touched people, and they changed: the blind had sight, the lame walked, the deaf heard, the dead were raised. To be touched by God, in other words, is to be restored, to be made into all God means us to be. That is what Christianity promises to do—make us whole, set us free, bring us fully alive.
Download or read book God Knows All Your Names written by Paul N. Herbert and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-08-18 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People with only a slight interest in history will enjoy these fascinating, short and easy to understand stories. Serious history buffs will like these lesser-known episodes, not the stories weve heard a million times. For example: try to find anyone who knows about the attempted slave insurrection in Fairfax County, Virginia. With Mary Lincolns spending habits, who knew that Abraham Lincoln actually saved an enormous percentage of his presidential salary? A slave honored in Virginia with a monument; the history of Lee Highway which opened with great fanfare in 1923 as a 3,000 mile road from Washington, DC to San Diego; a story about the Little River Turnpike, the second oldest turnpike in America, built partly by slaves and captured Hessian soldiers. Youll read about two Civil War ships that collided in the Potomac River. Victims included wounded soldiers' wives and one soldiers six-year-old son. Youll read a great account of the massive Civil War corruption. Youll learn about the disastrous condition of the treasury (sound familiar?) during the Revolutionary War. The government tried everything, including a lottery to get the country afloat in a sea of red ink. But the most fascinating story may be about the Revolutionary War soldier who faked his own desertion to defect to the enemy with the highly secretive mission of going behind enemy lines to capture and return for trial the worst traitor in American history: Benedict Arnold. Bet you never heard of this story. There are many other stories in this eclectic, heavily-researched manuscript. Theres a story about the Christmas Truce in World War One, about long-forgotten holidays in Virginia, about the retrocession which sent an area of Washington back to Virginia in 1846, and about the impeachment of a Supreme Court justice (it happened only once). And more!

Download or read book Authentic Christianity and the Life of Freedom written by Michael A. Milton and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2005-05-23 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The churches of Galatia were occupied by legalism. They needed to be liberated. Bravely taking on false teachers like the allied forces took on the Nazis in the hedgerows, Paul assaults the religion of works and advances the gospel of freedom. Paul's letter to all of the churches in Galatia is an amazing marshaling forward of the powerful gospel truth in the strongest words possible in order to free the Galatians from the headlong course they were on--a course that was leading them back into bondage. In 'Authentic Christianity and the Life of Freedom', Michael Milton leads the reader through a study of the book of Galatians in order to locate the timeless truths that enable the believer to live a life of freedom in Christ and not be taken captive by false teachers. Retaining the live feel of an actual worship service at First Presbyterian Church of Chattanooga, Tennessee, where these messages were first delivered, the reader can expect an appealing mixture of faithful Bible exposition, alert concern for the times in which we live, and heartfelt pastoral application to the lives of real people.

Instead of faltering or giving in to the fear and panic I had been experiencing, I started an almost two-year journey into an in-depth study of God's Word and asked him for answers: Give me wisdom. Give me insight. Why am I going through this? Show me how to be set free. And with constant prayer and study, God did indeed open up my eyes to many things that will not only amaze you, but will also set you free from this grip! If you want to receive the freedom that only God can give where the research has already been done for you, then it is a must that you read this book!

Download or read book From Fear To Freedom written by Dr. Rilly Ray Rajkumar and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey through Dr. Rilly Ray Rajkumar’s biographical account of the life of a young woman named Rilly, born in Darjeeling, India, and raised in a Bengali home during the 1940s. She watched her mother, a previously docile, fearful woman, overcome her fear, convincing her husband that the family needed to migrate to Malaya for the sake of their children. This work tells of Rilly's persistence and dedication in pursing an education, becoming a medical doctor like her father, all the while fighting against the suppression of women, cultural traditions such as arranged marriages, and the freedom of religious choice. And, like mother, like daughter, this requires another move to Singapore. To quote the author, "I realized that the pains my mother went through in her life urged me to write this book. I wanted the world to know what a simple woman can achieve by her sacrifices."

Download or read book Mexico Slavery Freedom written by Pablo Miguel Sierra Silva and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-20 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Through its rich and fascinating collection of documents, Mexico, Slavery, Freedom offers a much-needed window into Mexico’s long history of slavery that will leave readers wanting to learn and discover more. Sierra Silva brilliantly guides his readers through the maze of Mexican archival resources. . . . Through his careful content curation, readers will discover how corruption and discrimination led to persistent enslavement of indigenous Mesoamerican and transpacific peoples despite royal orders to abolish the practice. . . . The rich, detailed-packed introductions--to the book in general and to each chapter--are nonetheless succinct and to the point. Sierra Silva’s . . . editorial approach proves that information and interpretative points are better served in small portions. The documents themselves are the main course. Sierra Silva also recognizes the importance of giving readers both English and Spanish versions of each document in the book. These bilingual transcriptions make Mexico, Slavery, Freedom an equally valuable resource for course instruction in predominantly English-speaking environments, bilingual classrooms, and Spanish-centered courses.” —Mariana Dantas, Ohio University This is the first volume to provide, in dual-language format, selections from primary texts related to the experiences of enslaved Africans, Asians, and their descendants in colonial Mexico.
