Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The story of a boy growing up Mormon in America with a dream to play jazz trumpet. ... It begins in 1956. Young Shake Tauffler hears a line of music on the radio of a cattle truck that changes his life forever. The music is jazz. The instrument is a trumpet. His family is moving one last time - from a southern Utah ranch to a town outside Salt Lake - on his father's quest to bring his family from Switzerland to the heartland of the Mormon church. In two months, when Shake turns twelve, he'll join his buddies on a shared journey through the ranks of his father's take-no-prisoners religion. At the same time, armed with a used trumpet and his bike, he'll start another journey, on his own, to a place whose high priests aren't his father's friends but the Negro greats of jazz, men he's been taught to believe are cursed but from whose music he learns everything he dreams of being."--Back cover.

Download or read book Keep Showing Up written by Scott McKinney and published by Centerpoint Church. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keep Showing Up is the story of an evangelical Christian church founded in an unlikely place: Utah Valley, the spiritual epicenter of a culture dominated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, home to Brigham Young University and an overwhelmingly Mormon populace. It is a book that asks, "Can a non-Mormon church survive in a place like Utah?" and answers that question with resounding certainty. Written by Scott McKinney, who has served as pastor of CenterPoint Church since 1989, Keep Showing Up chronicles one small church's humble beginnings and its eventual growth into a thriving local church at the center point of LDS culture. More than a chronicle of growth against the odds, it also provides a Biblical approach to building bridges and forging mutual respect by speaking the truth in love. Comprised of more than three decades of experience living and working in a primarily LDS community, Scott McKinney's words are an encouragement to leaders of churches in similar positions elsewhere-a handy blueprint of sorts that seeks to encourage church leaders the world over to "keep showing up" with the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Download or read book Journey Of Navajo Oshley written by Navajo Oshley and published by . This book was released on 2000-05 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ak'é Nýdzin, or Navajo Oshley, was born sometime between 1879 and 1893. His oral memoir is set on the northern frontier of Navajo land, principally the San Juan River basin in southeastern Utah, and tells the story of his early life near Dennehetso and his travels, before there were roads or many towns, from Monument Valley north along Comb Ridge to Blue Mountain. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Anglos and Navajos expanded their use and settlement of lands north of the San Juan. Grazing lands and the Anglo wage economy drew many Navajos across the river. Oshley, a sheepherder, was among the first to settle there. He cared for the herds of his extended family, while also taking supplemental jobs with the growing livestock industry in the area. His narrative is woven with vivid and detailed portraits of Navajo culture: clan relationships, marriages and children, domestic life, the importance of livestock, complex relations with the natural world, ceremonies, trading, and hand trembling.

Download or read book My Journey to Understand Black Hawk s Mission of Peace written by Phillip B. Gottfredson and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Timpanogos were first discovered by Spanish explorer Juan Revera in 1765, and later Dominguez and Escalante in 1776. They describe in their journals having met "the bearded ones" who spoke Shoshone. Some seventy thousand Timpanogos Indians - the aboriginal people of Utah - died from violence, starvation, and disease after Mormon colonists stole their land and destroyed their culture over a twenty-one-year timeframe, but few people know anything about them, who they are, or what they believed in. Timpanogos leader Black Hawk witnessed the worst kind of man's inhumanity to man, and himself dying from a gunshot wound traveled a hundred and eighty miles on horseback to make peace with the white man, and apologizes for the pain and suffering he caused them, asking them to do the same and end the bloodshed. Phillip B Gottfredson, who has spent decades living among First Nations people seeking to understand Native American culture, provides a detailed synopsis of the Black Hawk War of Utah that decimated the Timpanogos Nation from 1849 and 1873. His account brings a much-needed perspective to a war that has historically been examined from the one-sided perspective of the Mormons. In collaboration with tribal leaders, he shares the Timpanogos version of the story, writing from the vantage point of the native peoples of Utah - a reference point that has been deliberately ignored. Join the author as he shares his extraordinary spiritual journey into the Native America culture. and highlights a war that has been overlooked and misunderstood for far too long.
