Book excerpt: With notable exceptions, Black Beauty immediately comes to mind, literature observes humanity through a human lens. The Adventures of Snoop the Savant Goat shifts the narrative angle and tells the story of technological prowess and emotional ambiguity from the perspective of an animal, a very curious and vengeful goat called Snoop. Snoop crosses the path of the thriving human species as he seeks a new home for his herd, a place full of promise and hope for all ruminants. The primordial grass, a mystical plant brimming with nutrients and life, grows on the ledge of a mountain – a place that can be reached only after an arduous and dangerous journey. To reach the mysterious plant, Snoop must avoid predators and outsmart unpredictable (and untrustworthy) human beings. Will he succeed?
Download or read book The Incredible Expanding Mountain of Hope written by Joshua Herald and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though this book is about Daniel 2, it's not really about Daniel 2! It's really about Jesus! Come tag along on this exciting journey of re-discovery! Even if you think you've long understood all details of the prophecy, you may just discover a most important new insight and find yourself dumbfounded by precise prophetic fulfillments in Christian history that once sent chills up the author's spine. You too may discover the fuller gospel meaning embedded within ancient cryptic symbols, almost like a “hidden picture”! Daniel 2, specifically, unveils the very Foundation Stone of all later Bible prophecies, and—correctly understood—it places the Lamb of God, His unfathomable love for sinners, and the heart conquest of His Kingdom (of glory and of grace) squarely back at the center of all Bible prophecy. That Christ-centering “hidden picture” is nothing short of a self-portrait of Jesus and the prophesied growth of his New Testament “kingdom of God” message into all the world, of his royal incarnate rule from its tiniest beginnings in Bethlehem to its mountainous NO END in eternity! This book is really about a too-often “hidden” message that Herald believes God always intended to shout out to our anxiety-ridden world today, as we now teeter on the brink of eternity. It is the timeless and yet so timely message of “HOPE!” Real hope! A long-growing hope (as you will discover)—embodied in a Person—that reaches all the way down to even the most apparently hopeless if she or he will only recognize it and take hold…of JESUS! “In this magnificent book, which at times seems like a spy thriller, Joshua Herald methodically details insights into Scripture. He does so with such clarity and precision that you will wonder how you could have missed coming to the same conclusion he did.” ~ Ron Price MA, author of Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Church, Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Work, and Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Home "Hang onto your seats for this rollercoaster! Joshua Herald pens a twisting, turning ride to a better understanding of Daniel's beastly prophecies and the mysterious stone that strikes the colossal, metallic image. ~ Chris Conrad PG (professional geologist) If you have found the insights in this book to be spiritually uplifting and helpful, please share this title with a friend!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the Mountain and the Sky shows us the goodness that is possible when a single person--regardless of age--takes action to help another and, in the process, changes the lives of hundreds. Maggie’s story begins in suburban New Jersey, in a comfortable middle-class family that supports her decision to travel the world during a gap year before starting college. During her travels, the trajectory of her life alters when she has a surprise encounter with a Nepali girl breaking rocks in a quarry. Maggie decides to invest her life savings of five thousand dollars to buy a piece of land and open a children’s home in Nepal. That home becomes Kopila Valley Children’s Home, and eventually, the nonprofit Maggie launches, the BlinkNow Foundation, also starts the Kopila Valley School, which provides tuition-free education for more than four hundred students. Maggie and BlinkNow’s work have been recognized around the world for their innovative, sustainable work. However, this book isn’t a how-to for fledging philanthropists or nonprofit founders--it’s a coming-of-age story about a young woman suspended between two worlds, as well as the love, loss, healing, and hope she experiences along the way. And Maggie’s inspiring, intimate tale shows readers an important truth: the power to change the world exists within all of us.

Download or read book A Stone of Hope written by Johnny B. Thomas and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glendora is a small rural town located in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. Th e people of the town take pride in living in a quiet, close-knit community where everybody knows their neighbors. However, like many small rural towns in the South, Glendora inherited the eff ects of slavery, Jim Crow, and poverty, in addition to having the unfortunate experience of being the town where a fourteen-year-boy named Emmett Till was brutally murdered and thrown into the Black Bayou that energized the Civil Rights Movement in America. Th is book tells a story about the struggle of this small town to rise above a mountain of despair that plagued the town for decades to a stone of hope that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. mentioned in his famous I Have A Dream speech in Washington, DC, in August 1963. For the past four decades, Glendoras hope for a brighter future has rested in the hands of Johnny B. Th omas, who rose from the son of sharecroppers on a local plantation to the mayor of the town. When Th omas became mayor, he inherited a town that had been ravaged by the eff ects of poverty, neglect, isolation, a heritage of plantation sharecropping servitude, and a culture of racial suppression of the civil rights of African Americans. Th is book provides a historical account of the struggles and challenges that Mayor Th omas faced in building the Emmett Till Museum to promote education about civil rights, and to promote cultural tourism to generate much needed revenue for community development in Glendora. Th is book also includes much information about the rich history and culture of the people of Glendora as they continue their journey to become one of the stones of hope in the Mississippi Delta.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Teachers’ Guide to Wilfred McClay’s Land of Hope: An Invitation to the Great American Story will be an invaluable aid to classroom teachers who use Land of Hope as a textbook for courses in United States history. McClay has coauthored the Guide with John McBride, a master teacher with over thirty years of secondary and collegiate teaching experience. The result is an exceptionally rich and useful resource for the enhancement of the classroom experience. Each chapter of Land of Hope has a five-part treatment: a short summation of the chapter’s contents, a lengthy set of questions and answers about the text of the chapter, materials that can be deployed in testing or used to sharpen classroom discussion; a set of short objective tests, suitable for quizzes and exams; a primary-source document for class study and analysis; and questions and answers to accompany the document. In addition, there are special units to assist teachers in the giving special coverage to the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Origins of the Two-Party System. Like Land of Hope itself, these materials are designed to help students come away from the study of the American past with a coherent sense of the larger story, and a sense of history as a profoundly reflective activity, one that goes to the depth of our humanity.
Download or read book A Stone of Hope written by David L. Chappell and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-12-07 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The civil rights movement was arguably the most successful social movement in American history. In a provocative new assessment of its success, David Chappell argues that the story of civil rights is not a story of the ultimate triumph of liberal ideas after decades of gradual progress. Rather, it is a story of the power of religious tradition. Chappell reconsiders the intellectual roots of civil rights reform, showing how northern liberals' faith in the power of human reason to overcome prejudice was at odds with the movement's goal of immediate change. Even when liberals sincerely wanted change, they recognized that they could not necessarily inspire others to unite and fight for it. But the prophetic tradition of the Old Testament--sometimes translated into secular language--drove African American activists to unprecedented solidarity and self-sacrifice. Martin Luther King Jr., Fannie Lou Hamer, James Lawson, Modjeska Simkins, and other black leaders believed, as the Hebrew prophets believed, that they had to stand apart from society and instigate dramatic changes to force an unwilling world to abandon its sinful ways. Their impassioned campaign to stamp out "the sin of segregation" brought the vitality of a religious revival to their cause. Meanwhile, segregationists found little support within their white southern religious denominations. Although segregationists outvoted and outgunned black integrationists, the segregationists lost, Chappell concludes, largely because they did not have a religious commitment to their cause.

Book excerpt: The Christian life, says Richard Dahlstrom, should be guided by the intentional goal of blessing the lives of the friends, loved ones, and strangers in our midst. We are called to impact a culture that, for all the rhetoric about hope, is overwhelmingly preoccupied with personal peace, prosperity, protection, and survival. Christians should be artists who paint with the colors of hope in a broken world, embodying Christ's redemptive presence in our personal lives, our work, and our relationships. This inspiring and practical book offers tools for living out this vision in daily life, with special attention given to the challenges we face in staying focused on the mission of imparting hope to others even while dealing with our own personal issues. Anyone who wishes they could have an impact on the world will cherish this unique book.
