Book excerpt: When He Calls Your Name is a book written by a Vietnamese Christian. The book is about the importance of putting faith in Jesus Christ. That is the way to peace, liberation from fear. The book was written when the author prayed, sang hymns and was on the way to testify in Viet Nam. When reading this book, you will realize three things: Our knowledge and successes cannot create deep peace in our heart. Knowledge can change your mind but cannot heal your heart. Jesus Christ can heal your heart. The relationship with Jesus Christ helps you refresh your soul, refresh your mind. As apostle Peter once wrote: “Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy.

Download or read book Unprotected written by Miriam Grossman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007-08-28 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our campuses are steeped in political correctness—that's hardly news to anyone. But no one realizes that radical social agendas have also taken over campus health and counseling centers, with dire consequences. Psychiatrist Miriam Grossman knows this better than anyone. She has treated more than 2,000 students at one of America's most prestigious universities, and she's seen how the anything- goes, women-are-just-like-men, "safer-sex" agenda is actually making our sons and daughters sick. Dr. Grossman takes issue with the experts who suggest that students problems can be solved with free condoms and Zoloft. What campus counselors and health providers must do, she argues, is tell uncomfortable, politically incorrect truths, especially to young patients in their most vulnerable and confused moments. Instead of platitudes and misinformation, it's time to offer them real protection.

Download or read book The Persian Boy written by Mary Renault and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times–bestselling novel of the ancient king of Macedon and his lover by the author Hilary Mantel calls “a shining light.” The Persian Boy centers on the most tempestuous years of Alexander the Great’s life, as seen through the eyes of his lover and most faithful attendant, Bagoas. When Bagoas is very young, his father is murdered and he is sold as a slave to King Darius of Persia. Then, when Alexander conquers the land, he is given Bagoas as a gift, and the boy is besotted. This passion comes at a time when much is at stake—Alexander has two wives, conflicts are ablaze, and plots on the Macedon king’s life abound. The result is a riveting account of a great conqueror’s years of triumph and, ultimately, heartbreak. The Persian Boy is the second volume of the Novels of Alexander the Great trilogy, which also includes Fire from Heaven and Funeral Games. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Mary Renault including rare images of the author. “Mary Renault is a shining light to both historical novelists and their readers. She does not pretend the past is like the present, or that the people of ancient Greece were just like us. She shows us their strangeness; discerning, sure-footed, challenging our values, piquing our curiosity, she leads us through an alien landscape that moves and delights us.” —Hilary Mantel

Download or read book Who I ve Become written by Sonya Visor and published by Covenant House/TruUBooks, LLC. This book was released on 2013-10-05 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invisible Masks Traumatic experiences, rejection, and abuse can cause us to function as opposites of our true selves. We often say I’m fine when we’re emotionally, physically, and spiritually on edge. We don’t want the people around us to know we are hurting or struggling because exposing our weakness makes us vulnerable. In Who I’ve Become, Sonya shares her own painful experience as a victim of childhood sexual abuse—from being pursued by one family member’s perversions to being used by several others and lying to keep up the facade that everything was okay when she was hurting inside. Sonya's story shows how her abusers stole her ability to trust her parent’s love just like the enemy tricks us into thinking we can’t take our burdens to the Lord and leave them there. This book shows how we all wear masks at one time or another to cover up our frailties, and the danger that comes when we lose our purpose and ourselves. More than a testimonial, this is a resource to help you take off the mask and find the person God created you to be. Who I’ve Become is a mirror of truth. Are you ready to meet the TruU?
