Book excerpt: When you have nothing left, what else do you have to lose? Stuck in a soulless job in New York, sat at a barren desk and too nervous to walk past the boss's office to get a coffee, Paul Hart's career has hit an all-time low. So, when he's offered the chance to fly to Paris to save his job, he's isn't going to ask too many questions. Tasked with securing the business of wealthy CEO Monsieur Claude Renard, Hart finds himself in the City of Light and falls head over heels for the city, its atmosphere and Clara Nouvelle, Renard's irresistible associate. But not all is as it seems as Hart uncovers an international web of deceit and corruption so wide that it could bring modern European society to its knees. In a high-adrenaline race against time across Parisian rooftops, through the backstreets of London and to a secluded French island, Hart must risk everything to save those he loves and uncover the deadly truth.

Download or read book Welcoming Children written by Joyce Ann Mercer and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a theology of childhood both from a theoretical basis in biblical theology (especially the gospel of Mark) and practical experience in children and youth ministry. Mercer builds on classical theologians such as Augustine, Calvin, Barth, and Rahner as well as modern feminist theologians such as Brock and Russell. She gains insights from pastoral theologians such as Capps and Couture and from contemporary cultural criticism. Mercer challenges approaches to educational and liturgical practices with children in congregations that segregate children from the rest of the church and its key practices of service, mission, worship, care, and learning. She reframes ministries with children as processes through which the church as a "community of practice" forms children into an alternative identity that resists surrounding consumerist culture and walks in the ways of Jesus. This book offers strategies for educational practices with children in congregations as it seeks to address the question, "What might educational practices that welcome children and contribute to their flourishing look like in the context of a faith community where children's learning happens in collaboration with experienced practitioners of faith?" Outlining a feminist practical theology of childhood, it explores five basic theological claims: (1) children as gifts and parenting as a religious practice of stewardship; (2) welcoming those who welcome and care for children; (3) children as already fully human; (4) children as part of the purposes of God; and (5) acknowledging and transforming the sufferings of children.

Download or read book Truth and Other Lies written by Lyra Wolf and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-09 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing is trickier than the truth. All Loki the trickster god of Asgard wants is a quiet, peaceful life where he's free to needle Balder, occasionally stir up the inter-realm porridge pot, and get Thor to dress in women's garments (for all the best reasons). Getting beset by sudden, painful, and terribly inconvenient visions of blood, ash, and death are definitely not on his to-do list. But, because of some small, ridiculous remnant of caring that refuses to be extinguished, Loki feels he must save Asgard...and that means warning Odin, his least favorite god (next to Thor). But getting the gods to believe the boy who cried Fenrir is harder than it looks, and time is running out, not just for Asgard, but also for a mortal woman named Sigyn who may just hold the key to Loki's future. Loki is about to find out the hard way that the only thing crueler than truth are the lies behind it all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE CULT NOVEL RETURNS! “The best book I read last year is A Man Lies Dreaming by Lavie Tidhar... It is so cleverly constructed and such a spectacular conclusion unfolds that you are going to take it all very seriously.” – Sting “Ambitious as hell” –Ian Rankin “An excellent novel” –Philip Kerr Since its original 2014 publication, A Man Lies Dreaming has been translated into multiple languages and gained a cult following for its dark humor, prescient politics and powerful exploration of the impossibility of fantasy. 1939: Adolf Hitler, fallen from power, seeks refuge in a London engulfed in the throes of a very British Fascism. Now eking a miserable living as a down-at-heels private eye and calling himself Wolf, he has no choice but to take on the case of a glamorous Jewish heiress whose sister went missing. It’s a decision Wolf will very shortly regret. For in another time and place a man lies dreaming: Shomer, once a Yiddish pulp writer, who dreams lurid tales of revenge in the hell that is Auschwitz. Prescient, darkly funny and wholly original, the award-winning A Man Lies Dreaming is a modern fable for our time that comes “crashing through the door of literature like Sam Spade with a .38 in his hand” (Guardian).

He's too dark and damaged, and I've got a secret he can never know: I'm not a true wolf. Instead of waiting for him to figure out I'm an abomination, I left on my fifteenth birthday. But I didn't go far. No way in hell would I let him drive me from the town I love. Ten years later, I'm still hiding in plain sight. When I occasionally see him on the street-deadly, sexy, powerful--I just walk by. Keep my head down. Until that night. Wrong place, wrong time, and suddenly I'm accused of murdering someone from my old pack. And he's there. Blaming me. I've got one chance to prove my innocence and find the real killer, or I'm dead by shifter law. Fortunately, the Alpha doesn't recognize me because I'm no longer the same ugly duckling. He senses I'm special though, and he won't stop until he figures out the truth. But when he does, I'll be in danger from more than just the murderer.
