Download or read book The Stick Chair Book written by Christopher Schwarz and published by . This book was released on 2023-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "..."The Stick Chair Book" is divided into three sections. The first section, "Thinking About Chairs," introduces you to the world of common stick chairs, plus the tools and wood to build them. The second section - "Chairmaking Techniques" - covers every process involved in making a chair, from cutting stout legs, to making curved arms with straight wood, to carving the seat. Plus, you'll get a taste for the wide variety of shapes you can use. The chapter on seats shows you how to lay out 14 different seat shapes. The chapter on legs has 16 common forms that can be made with only a couple handplanes. Add those to the 11 different arm shapes, six arm-joinery options, 14 shapes for hands, seven stretcher shapes and 11 combs, and you could make stick chairs your entire life without ever making the same one twice. The final section offers detailed plans for five stick chairs, from a basic Irish armchair to a dramatic Scottish comb-back. These five chair designs are a great jumping-off point for making stick chairs of your own design. Additional chapters in the book cover chair comfort, finishing and sharpening the tools. From the author: "When I first wrote 'The Stick Chair Book' in 2021, I was also fighting cancer. So I hammered out the text with urgency and the desire to record every fragment of information I knew about chairmaking. "To be fair, that's usually how I go about writing all my books. But then I typically take a couple months off, put the manuscript aside, then revisit it with fresh eyes and a sharpened pen. My final revisions remove about 10-20 percent of the original material. The stuff I cut is usually chapters that don't match the tone of the rest of the text. Or I snip sections that aren't as relevant as when I first wrote them. I also smooth out the writing and add bits of information I'd forgotten during the first brain-to-fingers dump. "And that's exactly what I've done for this revised edition. As a result, the text is 10.1 percent shorter than the first edition. It's more to the point. And it's where the manuscript would have ended up under normal conditions..."--Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: Destination: Capernaum The year: Circa AD 30 What to bring: Imagination, curiosity, and a desire to deepen your faith In The Shoemaker's Gospel, a fascinating story based on the biblical accounts of Jesus, we are whisked back to the years of Jesus' earthly ministry and the life-changing effects that it had on all who knew him. Through the eyewitness journal entries of a first-century shoemaker whom Jesus has nicknamed "Soft Shoes," we hear the Lord's soothing but challenging voice as he delivers a parable about what it really means to give generously; we marvel as he heals a girl thought to be dead; we feel his anger as he overturns tables in the temple; and we sense the simultaneous confusion and unspeakable joy as Mary and the disciples realize that their crucified teacher has been raised from the dead From Jesus' baptism in the Jordan to the Emmaus road appearance, Soft Shoes serves as our energetic yet reflective guide back to a time when a carpenter from Nazareth revealed himself in word and deed as the Son of God and forever changed the course of history. Prepare to embark on an incredible journey that will lead you to a place where you can once again experience Jesus for the first time, a place where your faith can truly flourish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love runs deep, but surely will have to weather storms which test the bounds of its depth. Vignettes from the Twilight of Life is a treasury of memories and reminiscences that well up in the dreams of Afrin J. Heath. He is a feisty, seventy-five year old man facing life alone since the passing of his wife several years earlier. He refuses to let the vagaries of old age defeat him or let the memory of his wife Molly fade away. Sometimes Afrin can be as rambunctious as a child, and in other moments, be swallowed up in the love and warmth of friends and family. He admits to missteps along his journey and some still make him cringe. But mostly there is laughter, tears, and love of life that makes old age something to be welcomed.

Book excerpt: The culture wars have descended and have disturbed the comfortable and privileged residents of Pernoit County, Virginia. Caught in the midst of this conflict is Donald Ross, the eldest son of Dr. Eric Ross, the Senior Minister at Grace Progressive Church. Donnie has two things on his mind as he enters the summer between his Junior and Senior years at Logan High School, finding a job and improving his baseball swing. He never intends on becoming an avid volunteer to defeat his state’s anti-gay marriage referendum. Yet, after being entrusted with a secret from his favorite teacher and receiving a personal revelation from God, Donnie ventures upon his quest to heed the call of the Prophet Isaiah to “seek justice.” Along the campaign trail, Donnie is constantly asked to step out of his comfort zone by Cameron Hamilton, the Justice Coalition’s senior political strategist. During that summer, Donnie reframes the campaign’s message for his generation and conquers his fear of public speaking. As a senior, Donnie consistently faces down, Lloyd Chambers, his principal and an institutional proponent of reaction and homophobia. Donnie’s active engagement with the marriage equality campaign challenges his childhood friendships and the vestiges of his own personal power. Meanwhile, Donnie begins to forge new relationships with Alden and Aliceanna Dodge and Daniel Shelby, the youngest son of the state’s most ultra-conservative minister, while new priorities begin to emerge. When Donnie is assaulted by his best friend, Jake Kneath, in the restroom during Logan High School’s Homecoming dance, he struggles emotionally. Yet, a new and profoundly stronger resiliency is resurrected giving him the courage to face the daunting challenges to passionately take up his cross and follow Christ and to support his friend’s decision to come out of the closet in order to live a more authentic life.

Book excerpt: A renowned psychic and spiritual healer with clients all over the world, Mary T. Browne had her first clairvoyant experience at the age of seven. For more than thirty years since then, her visions of the other side and her communication with her teachers, both in spirit and on the earth plane, have helped to form not just her understanding of death, but her philosophy of life. In this fascinating, inspiring book, Mary T. puts our lives into a much broader context than most of us have ever imagined. LIFE AFTER DEATH describes in detail exactly where we go when we die. Mary T.'s psychic connection to the spirit world and her ability to receive messages from those who have made the transition will inspire us to see death not as an ending, but as a new beginning. Mary T. shows us that the spirit world is a place of harmony. It is a realm of beauty, light, art, music, literature, and friendship. We do love beyond the grave, and we will be reunited with our loved ones in the spirit world. The touching stories of those reunions will help ease the fear of leaving the physical world. Mary T. takes the mystery out of death, and leaves us with clear examples of the miraculous journey that lies ahead of us.
