Book excerpt: Caught up in a scheme to smuggle his deported uncle back across the border, a young American must fight to save his family, himself, and the woman he loves At eighteen, Roque Montalvo is a gifted guitarist and a hit with women, but the rest of his life is a struggle. Orphaned at birth and scraping by in a rough Northern California town, he helps support his hardworking aunt and tends to his ex-marine brother—a physical and emotional wreck after his tour in Iraq. Then, to make matters worse, his uncle gets snared in a workplace raid and federal immigration agents deport him back to El Salvador. When Montalvo’s loose-cannon cousin, himself a former deportee, shows up unannounced, he draws Montalvo into a scheme to rescue his uncle and bring him back home. It’s a perilous undertaking in the best of cases, now that gangs and organized crime control the smuggling routes, and the risk ratchets higher when Montalvo learns he’ll be transporting not just his uncle, but also a Palestinian refugee and a young beauty destined for the clutches of a fierce Mexican crime boss. A gritty, realistic, and unforgettable adventure where all borders are tested, Do They Know I’m Running? tightropes the perilous line between menace and hope, danger and home.
Download or read book That They Know Me written by C. H. Henry and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-04-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlene Henry had such an overwhelming spiritual hunger that she walked away from a successful career at the height of the economic slowdown just so that she could spend all of her time seeking a more intimate relationship with Jesus. Over the course of the next two years, Jesus rewarded her by frequently awakening her during the night to explain, in dreams and visions backed with scriptural references, the simplicity of the Gospel. She dutifully copied these visions in book form, and they are now being used around the world in Bible studies, prison ministries, and classes for new believers. The scriptures flow effortlessly from one subject to the next, and tie the whole New Testament together. You will learn how you can develop a personal relationship with Jesus, how you can distinquish God's voice from other voices, how to understand ten basic spiritual principles, and the six steps to praying more effectively. You will also discover your own particular spiritual gift and how to develop it. Prepare to have every area of your life radically transformed by this teaching! C. H. Henry is also the author of another book that highlights "snapshots" of Jesus from Genesis to Revelation, and one that extolls God's perfect love for you.

Download or read book The 12 Lists Men and Women Think They Know written by Moisaquw Blanc and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written to help the common men and women to understand one another. Majority of people out there, who reads relationship books, usually come out in the end with half the knowledge or none at all. They seem to forget what they have just read. The reason why this happen is either two things; first, the reader probably already knew about those topics, thus making it daunting for him or her to relate to the scenarios the book presented. Most relationship books may sound the same as the rest to the reader unless something new is introduced. Second, many authors want to sugarcoat everything. We believe the ultimate mistake an author can do when writing relationship books, is to treat readers like children by sugarcoating every word. We feel the readers have the right to know all the truth. The whole good, dirty, damn truth! With that said, we apologize in advance if any words in this book seem to be unmannerly. Our intention is not to enrage you. Nor is it to conceal what most authors are afraid to say in order to protect their prestige. You will notice that this may be the only book on relationships so far that is not afraid to tell it how it is. Sugar coating does not exist here!
Download or read book What Did the Biblical Writers Know and When Did They Know It written by William G. Dever and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2001-05-10 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries the Hebrew Bible has been the fountainhead of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Today, however, the entire biblical tradition, including its historical veracity, is being challenged. Leading this assault is a group of scholars described as the "minimalist" or "revisionist" school of biblical studies, which charges that the Hebrew Bible is largely pious fiction, that its writers and editors invented "ancient Israel" as a piece of late Jewish propaganda in the Hellenistic era. In this fascinating book noted Syro-Palestinian archaeologist William G. Dever attacks the minimalist position head-on, showing how modern archaeology brilliantly illuminates both life in ancient Palestine and the sacred scriptures as we have them today. Assembling a wealth of archaeological evidence, Dever builds the clearest, most complete picture yet of the real Israel that existed during the Iron Age of ancient Palestine (1200 600 B.C.). Dever's exceptional reconstruction of this key period points up the minimalists' abuse of archaeology and reveals the weakness of their revisionist histories. Dever shows that ancient Israel, far from being an "invention," is a reality to be discovered. Equally important, his recovery of a reliable core history of ancient Israel provides a firm foundation from which to appreciate the aesthetic value and lofty moral aspirations of the Hebrew Bible.
Download or read book How Will They Know If I m Dead written by Robert Horn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most books on terminal illness focus on death and dying. This book is about neither. It doesn't deal with statistics or the medical aspects of a crippling disease, and it isn't written by a celebrity about their amazing recovery. This book is about a real person and a true hero. Bob Horn, an authority on the Soviet Union and foreign policy in the Third World, a successful author and teacher, an involved husband and father of three in his mid-forties, awoke one day to find his entire world upside down. Diagnosed in 1988 with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), better known as Lou Gerhig's disease, Bob had to deal with the reality that his situation was terminal. How Bob and his family coped and continue to cope or "battle" as Bob prefers to call it with disability and terminal illness is an amazing story that you will find inspiring, heartwarming, humorous, upsetting, and a celebration of the triumph of life. Having already beaten the odds that say he should have died years ago, Bob accomplished the most unbelievable feat he wrote this book. It was discovered that Bob had a pulse in his right foot that could be felt and manipulated. By hooking his foot up to a computer, Bob found he could maneuver the cursor and produce documents. He has written articles for the Los Angeles Times, sermons for his church, correspondence, and most impressive of all this book. Not bad for a man who is completely paralyzed and hasn't moved in six years!

Download or read book Sensing Sacred written by Jennifer Baldwin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensing Sacred is an edited volume that explores the critical intersection of “religion” and “body” through the religious lens of practical theology, with an emphasis on sensation as the embodied means in which human beings know themselves, others, and the divine in the world. The manuscript argues that all human interaction and practice, including religious praxis, engages “body” through at least one of the human senses (touch, smell, hearing, taste, sight, kinestics/proprioception). Unfortunately, body—and, more specifically and ironically, sensation—is eclipsed in contemporary academic scholarship that is inherently bent toward the realm of theory and ideas. This is unfortunate because it neglects bodies, physical or communal, as the repository and generator of culturally conditioned ideas and theory. It is ironic because all knowledge transmission minimally requires several senses including sight, touch, and hearing. Sensing Sacred is organized into two parts. The first section devotes a chapter to each human sense as an avenue of accessing religious experience; while the second section explores religious practices as they specifically focus on one or more senses. The overarching aim of the volume is to explicitly highlight each sense and utilize the theoretical lenses of practical theology to bring to vivid life the connections between essential sensation and religious thinking and practice.
