Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last half-century, the Korean Peninsula has become a region that has stolen attention from all over the world. The world villagers have started to recognize Korea is not just a nation in the corner, but a ring of fire that could threaten their peace and safety directly or indirectly. So the concern about the conflict between the North and the South, from the Japanese rule to the Korean War to the Kim family era ━ Kim Il-sung, Kim Jung-il, and Kim Jong-un ━ to the abruptly bulged-out nuclear problem has grown bigger and bigger. So if anyone who wants to sympathize and look deeper into peace and danger beyond Asia to the globe needs to know about the heated Korean Peninsula first. And the readers of this book can learn the messages of Yin and Yang and Tragedy and Hope that are hard to find in other books.

Download or read book The Broken Land written by W. Michael Gear and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel of North America's Forgotten Past Twelve summers after the events of The People of the Longhouse and The Dawn Country, the Iroquois nations remain locked in bitter warfare. Atotarho, the cannibal-sorcerer who leads the People of the Hills, schemes to set into motion a cataclysmic battle that threatens to destroy the Iroquoian world. His warriors spread fear and death wherever they go, taking captives and burning villages to the ground. Only five people are brave enough to challenge Atotarho. Odion, Wrass, Tutelo, Baji, and Zateri, kidnapped as children and sold into slavery, are now grown, and they have forged a desperate alliance that just might be strong enough to stop the madman. Odion, now a disgraced warrior known as Dekanawida or Sky Messenger, must convince his people that his visions of a great darkness will mean total destruction for all. His friend Wrass, who has become War Chief Hiyawento, and a powerful clan matron, Jigonsaseh, are his only hope. They must find a way to bring five warring nations together. Award-winning archaeologists and New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors Kathleen O'Neal Gear and W. Michael Gear continue their retelling of the story of the Peacemaker, one of North America's most beautiful epics in The Broken Land. Dekanawida's message of compassion and spiritual unity is as powerful today as it was six hundred years ago—perhaps even more so.

Book excerpt: There are people, secular and religious, who will always seize power and do anything to keep it.But there are other people, regardless of faith, colour, language or culture, who will do anything to help their fellow man no matter what it costs them.This then, is humanity, both good and evil.It's a pity Joshua Kessler lives in a world that has redefined these words until they are meaningless. But then, most of Josh's life is meaningless. Britain is divided. Ever since the referendum on Shariah slashed the country in half, a wound from Stirling in the north to Brighton in the south. Old Britain to the west, The British State of Islam, the BSI, to the east.Everyone in Old Britain knows about the terrible theocracy imposed in the BSI, even if mentioning it is considered Hate Speech. Likewise, everyone in the BSI knows about the immorality and depravity found in Old Britain. But are things ever really so black and white?Separated from his parents by the state, Josh lives in a re-education centre where he is taught what to think and what to say as a citizen of totalitarian Old Britain where diversity rules and traditional beliefs are scorned. Elsie is a teacher, living a quiet, comfortable life close to the Border, never questioning the values she has learned or the truthfulness of the Government which shows almost fanatical concern for human rights. Provided those humans think and believe in an acceptable manner. Josh, befriended by River, a girl he barely knows and isn't certain he likes, escapes incarceration and heads to the Border, while Elsie's peaceful existence is shattered when her best friend is abducted and she learns her grandmother is not the harmless little old lady she pretends to be. Finding herself on the other side of the Border for the first time, Elsie discovers people more human and more loving than many of those she has left behind. Josh is not a freedom fighter; he's not a hero or a terrorist although he wonders whether River is both of those things. He just wants to be free. But when Government secrets are too big and too ugly to ignore, he, like so many other ordinary men and women before him, realises that freedom is the only thing worth fighting for.

Book excerpt: "The desert may seem timeless from within the Yellow Circle tonight, but the permanence of the surrounding landscape is only an illusion. Even the land is alive here, constantly changing and evolving as do all living things. Nothing here is 'finished.' Everything around us--the plants, the animals, the rocks, and the terrain itself--is in the process of becoming something else. And, of course, so are we. None of us around the campfire tonight are the same people we were yesterday, or will be tomorrow."--from the book The Broken Land surveys the geological phenomena of the magnificent Great Basin landscape of western Utah, Nevada, eastern California, and adjacent regions. Each chapter focuses on a locality or area that provides insight into the deep history of one of North America's most remote regions--one of its continental margins. It is the only book available covering the geology of the entire Great Basin. Written for anyone with a casual to serious interest in natural history, The Broken Land conveys Frank DeCourten's awe at the story written in the rock of the basin.

Download or read book Making Disciples in a World Parish written by Paul W. Chilcote and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of inspirational and challenging essays, Methodists from around the globe reflect on the practice of disciple-making in their own contexts. From their own perspectives, they address questions like: What are the challenges you face? What biblical images shape your missional practice? What examples of Christian authenticity inspire your communities? What gifts related to mission and evangelism do you offer the global community of faith? Churches on every continent have their own stories of struggle and faithfulness. Indeed, each distinct community within any given region has a voice of its own that deserves to be heard. The voices included in this volume belong to women and men alike. Likewise, they resound with the accents of Africa and Asia, Latin and North America, Europe, and Oceania. Each voice is distinct, but all articulate a vision of faith made effective through love. In a world characterized variously by poverty and violence as well as prosperity and peace, the church must reclaim its central mission "to make disciples of Jesus Christ." In their effort to articulate a vision of mission and evangelism, the contributors to this volume bear witness to the fact that we can no longer do this work in isolation from one another. To be the ambassadors of the gospel, we need each other and we need to pay attention to the voices that sound different from our own. This volume takes a large step in that vital direction.
Download or read book The Life of Kim and the Behavior of Men written by Rod Davis and published by Madville Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-16 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1970, Second Lieutenant Thomas Jefferson Hobbes, fresh out of college and ROTC, finds himself sent to South Korea instead of the expected Vietnam. His arrival at Kimpo Air Base turns his destiny from a war zone to another face of warfare, the destructive interactions between soldiers and camp followers, aka men and women, that are a part of conquest and occupation throughout history and around the world. Utterly unprepared, he follows trails and carves his own, his soul and sense of humanity falling to levels of hell that even Dante would find daunting. A beautiful young Korean working girl, known only as Miss Kim, becomes Hobbes’s partner and his guide into deception and danger. Pushing through his 13-month tour, he becomes a part of the thoughtless, predatory subculture that binds him to the love of his life, but at an impossible price.
