Download or read book Missionary Pumpkins written by Cheryl Erickson and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It was the year 2000. Farming had not been good for a few years, and my husband said to me, ‘Why don’t you take that little seven-acre patch up on the hill by the house and experiment with some specialty crops and see if we can make some money in that way?’ I looked into several different options, including herbs, lavender, and alfalfa. … That was the beginning of a twenty-one-year pumpkin career and my partnership with God. That first year, I planted one acre of pumpkins, which amounted to 400 hills with five seeds per hill.” So began a partnership between God and Cheryl Erickson. Cheryl provided the faith, the muscle, and the energy, and God provided the sun, rain, and many miracles. Planting, weeding, and harvesting were all done by hand—Cheryl’s hands—that first year. As time progressed, harvesttime became a community effort with as many as fifty or sixty people showing up to take a spot on the well-planned “assembly line” that began in the pumpkin field picking the pumpkins and ending with rows of bins full of clean pumpkins lined up in the shed, awaiting a trip to market. You’ll laugh and cry as you read of the trials and triumphs, the near-fatalities, and the miracles of protection that made up the fabric of the life of Cheryl Erickson. And you'll discover one of her greatest joys which made all of her hard work worth the effort. In a gentle way, Cheryl weaves in spiritual lessons learned throughout the years of growing and selling pumpkins—lessons the reader can internalize in their own life. “In Matthew 25, Jesus tells the parable of the talents. In this book, you will read the almost unbelievable miracles involved with Cheryl Erickson's pumpkin project.” --Jeffrey K. Wilson, Assistant to the President for Planned Giving, Adventist World Radio “Whether you are looking for a mission project yourself, or whether you simply enjoy reading the miraculous adventures of others, you will find this book an inspiration and a delight.” --Gwen Simmons. Writing Instructor “No matter what your personal Christian experience may be, in reading this book you will be amazed at how God answers prayers.” --Raymond Woolsey, pastor, missionary evangelist, editor

Download or read book Spiritual Journey written by Tembi Annabel Ningiza and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a spiritual journey that God takes us through in life. Nobody is here by chance; we are all here to serve Gods purpose through our various ministries. Each and every one is being tested according to the needs of his or her ministry that is why we go through different kinds of trials and tribulations in order to strengthen and to refine our ministries. If we call ourselves servants of the most High God then we need to allow to be tested in order for God to be able to use us because God will and has never used an untested product. Through this journey we learn to discover who God really is instead of what other people or the bible tells us; we get to know Him intimately and personally. We learn not to depend on our own intelligence but on His wisdom as we grow mature spiritually. God will never let go of our hand He will always hold us tight, protects us and strengthen us all the time. We have been given power from above to withstand anything including temptations and sin which we are here to overcome and overpower with the power vested in us by God himself. God enjoys stepping up at times when all eyes at on you and when everybody expects you to fail or to drawn; He shows up his splendour and majesty and claim his glory though our situations, trials and tribulations. God is bigger than any obstacle that the devil might be throwing at you right now all you need to do is to trust him that He will not let go of you and to trust in his power the same power that resurrected our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead.
Download or read book The Smell Culture Reader written by Jim Drobnick and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smell is fundamental to experience but mired in paradox. Stigmatized as animalistic, it nonetheless feeds a vast fragrance and marketing industry. Considered ephemeral, scents have survived throughout the ages in a number of religious practices. The Smell Culture Reader provides a much-needed overview of what is arguably the most elusive sense. From hygiene to aromatherapy, the fetid to the fragrant, smells are shown to be much more than just an adornment or a nuisance. Addressing this engaging sense in redolent detail, The Smell Culture Reader demonstrates how essential smell is to sexuality, social status, personal identity, and cultural tradition.
Download or read book Strange Times My Dear written by Nahid Mozaffari and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2012-01-13 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Arcade Publishing originally contracted this extraordinary collection of poetry and literature, the Department of the Treasury was attempting to censor the publication of works from countries on America’s “enemies list.” Arcade, along with the PEN American Center, the Association of American Publishers Professional and Scholarly Publishing Division, and the Association of American University Presses, filed a lawsuit in federal court against the United States government. Their landmark case forced the Office of Foreign Assets Control to change their regulations regarding editing and publishing literature in translation, and Arcade is proud to reissue this anthology that showcases the developments in Iranian literature over the past quarter-century. Since the Iranian revolution of 1979, the United States has been virtually cut off from that country’s culture. Despite severe difficulties imposed by social, political, and economic upheavals, as well as war, repression, and censorship, a veritable cultural renewal has taken place in Iran over the past quarter-century, not only in literature, but in music, art, and cinema. Over forty writers from three generations contributed to this rich and varied collection—or, to use the Persian term, golchine, a bouquet—one that provides a much-needed window into a largely undiscovered branch of world literature. In the wake of the Green Revolution and sweeping changes in the region, this particular golchine is more relevant than ever, and will bring literary enjoyment as well as a fuller understanding of a complex and ever-shifting culture.
Download or read book Satan s Stones written by Moniru Ravanipur and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-05 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women writers occupy prominent positions in late 20th century Iranian literature, despite the increased legal and cultural restrictions placed upon women since the 1978-1979 Islamic Revolution. One of these writers is Moniru Ravanipur, author of the critically acclaimed The Drowned and Heart of Steel. Satan's Stones is the first English translation of her 1991 short story collection Sangha-ye Sheytan. Often set in the remote regions of Iran, these stories explore many facets of contemporary Iranian life, particularly the ever-shifting relations between women and men. Their bold literary experimentation marks a new style in Persian fiction akin to "magical realism." Reports from Iran indicated that Satan's Stones had been banned there by government authorities. While its frank explorations of Iranian society may have offended Islamic leaders, they offer Western readers fresh perspectives on Iranian culture from one of the country's most distinguished writers.
