This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2014 Readers Favorite International Gold Award Winner "The Little Girl Praying on the Hill" is the bittersweet, authentic story of a desperately deprived upbringing as seen through the eyes of a little girl, who manages to rise above her miserable situation at least for brief moments through her vivid imagination and tenacity. She spent alot of time alone, or so it seemed to the people in her village. Every day she took the sheep to the top of the hill. In her mind, she wasn't alone. She filled her world with imaginary friends-the princess in her glorious cloud castle and her mercurial companion, the old wind, who sometimes teased, sometimes tormented her. Life was good-until her daydream was interrupted by someone who angrily reminded her of the sad reality: a life in the mud, surrounded by poverty and hopelessness. In a world where despair reigns supreme, a child's mind turns to prayer. But when help isn't immediate, faith must carry her through the difficulties. This short story is a realistic cameo of post-WWII rural European life, and is filled with emotion, feelings, and heartache.
Download or read book Gay Girl Good God written by Jackie Hill Perry and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I used to be a lesbian.” In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could? At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel. Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Download or read book The Girl from Widow Hills written by Megan Miranda and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of The Last House Guest—a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick—comes a “hauntingly atmospheric and gorgeously written page-turner” (Kimberly McCreight, New York Times bestselling author of A Good Marriage) about a young woman plagued by night terrors after a childhood trauma who wakes one evening to find a corpse at her feet. Everyone knows the story of “the girl from Widow Hills.” Arden Maynor was just a child when she was swept away while sleepwalking during a terrifying rainstorm and went missing for days. Strangers and friends, neighbors and rescue workers, set up search parties and help vigils, praying for her safe return. Against all odds, she was found, alive, clinging to a storm drain. The girl from Widow Hills was a living miracle. Arden’s mother wrote a book. Fame followed. Fans and fan letters, creeps, and stalkers. And every year, the anniversary. It all became too much. As soon as she was old enough, Arden changed her name and disappeared from the public eye. Now a young woman living hundreds of miles away, Arden goes by Olivia. She’s managed to stay off the radar for the last few years. But with the twentieth anniversary of her rescue approaching, the media will inevitably renew its interest in Arden. Where is she now? Soon Olivia feels like she’s being watched and begins sleepwalking again, like she did long ago, even waking up outside her home. Until late one night, she jolts awake in her yard. At her feet is the corpse of a man she knows—from her previous life, as Arden Maynor. The girl from Widow Hills is once again at the center of this story in this “compulsive page-turner” (Booklist).

Book excerpt: Dylan is only sixteen, but his life has already been filled with horror and sorrow. After his mother and father commit suicide together, Dylan begins to believe society will eventually collapse into chaos. He obsessively prepares for doomsday, having no idea how quickly the world will disintegrate in his immediate future. It is May when Dylan drives a truck filled with supplies into the Abraham National Forest; there, he adopts a hill; sets up camp with his German Shepard puppy, Hans; and waits for something apocalyptic to happen. But before long, an intruder infiltrates his camp. Julie, a pistol-wielding eighteen-year-old, is supposedly a rock climber, but in truth she is scared to death of the same thing he is: the end of the world. As gunfire echoes in the distance and the world is thrown into violence and panic, Dylan and Julie decide to face life together without electricity, security, or a promise of anything. But when strange things beyond their imagination begin to appear, both cannot help but wonder if they are the new Adam and Eve. In this compelling tale, two teenagers attempt to carve out a new existence in a treacherous wilderness where only the smartest and bravest survive.
