Download or read book Submit Oh No He Ain t the Boss of Me Is He written by Adrienne Pintilie and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do I feel the need to argue about everything with my husband? Why do I feel threatened when being told to do something by anyone? Why do I feel as though I need to win the discussion, turned argument? Why can't I just sit quiet and agree? I remember one particular argument with my husband years ago. As usual, it started by disagreeing on something so benign, it warranted no further discussing. But, oh, no, he wasn't going to get the best of me. Truth be told, we were both thinking the exact same thing. That angst turned into malicious attacks of each other. Why? Why did it have to result into that, every time? One day, I had reached my limit to what I felt was him treating me like a doormat. I fell to my knees in prayer and just asked the Lord to guide my heart and thoughts. What do I need to do to change this cycle? I prayed so many times with what appeared to me to be no answer that I decided to go hunt for an answer in the Scriptures. Don't you just love when the Lord does that? I started researching submission, and this book is the result of that research. I wanted to share my very personal and vulnerable struggles with other women, men, and church groups. If I was having challenges with submission, surely others were too. Maybe, just maybe, my failures could be the catalyst for someone else's success. This book was written based on my personal experiences (negative and positive) and my own struggles with submission as a Christian woman, wife, mother, daughter, employee, and tax-paying citizen. I also hope to shed light on the fact that everyone is under submission in some aspect of their lives. I decided to write this in hopes other women who struggle with this concept might be encouraged that there is hope for the stubborn. I used scriptures specifically related to submission, not just for women, but for everyone. I also infused a great deal of humor throughout as I know this topic can become very heavy-hearted, and using humor made it easier to entice the reader to keep going. I learned a great deal from researching this book, as did my husband, which amazingly made our marriage stronger and more deep-rooted in Christ. I must believe that if it can make a positive impact on our marriage, as stubborn as we both are, I pray it can make a difference for others.

Book excerpt: The farm was built in the 1700s in the Blue Ridge foothills. The Alexander family called it Homeplace. Generations lived there. And died there. Charlene Myers, a struggling artist, is anxious to jump-start her painting career. Having just inherited her ancestors’ “homeplace,” she imagines the old farmhouse as an ideal location for a solitary, isolated artist’s retreat. But on her arrival, memories of her only visit to Homeplace long ago come rushing back. Memories of the witchy old woman in her rocking chair. Memories of screams coming from the well. Just part of a little girl’s vivid imagination. Or so Charlene convinces herself—until she discovers the terrifying truth about the Alexander legacy. Because for all its empty rooms, Charlene is not alone in Homeplace. And something in the parlor at the top of the stairs wants to claim her, keep her, and never let her go. “The reigning champion of the modern Southern Gothic. She is a master.”—Garrett Peck, Gauntlet “Massie can be every bit as creepy as Roald Dahl.”—The Argus Leader

Download or read book The Hardly Boys written by Tunder Ramsnips and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hardly Boys: Volume 1 is a collection of short stories set in the early 1980s in Asheville, North Carolina, with two eleven-year-old boys, Tunder and Mark, as would-be detectives. Combining 80s nostalgia with Maxwell Smart antics, the two boys "solve" 12 mysteries'from busting up a diabolical gang of jewel thieves to outwitting Scottish serial killers'and by doing so convince themselves that they're every bit as talented as the Hardy Boys they've read about, characters created by Franklin W. Dixon. Tunder narrates each story as an adult writing his older sister, and it's apparent that he's never outgrown his smugness, conceit or naïveté. With the southern dialect, banter and charm of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, The Hardly Boys: Volume 1 will entertain adults and teenagers who enjoy southern satire and the uncomplicated bonds of childhood best friends.

Book excerpt: From the critically acclaimed author of the collection Kentucky Straight and memoir My Father the Pornographer, The Good Brother is the finely crafted debut novel from a talent the New York Times calls “a fierce writer”. Virgil Caudill has never gone looking for trouble, but this time he's got no choice—his hell-raising brother Boyd has been murdered. Everyone knows who did it, and in the hills of Kentucky, tradition won’t let a murder go unavenged. No matter which way he chooses, Virgil will lose. The Good Brother is the story of a man’s struggle to find his real self in the wake of an impossible choice. Traversing the American landscape from the hollows of Eastern Kentucky to the plains of Montana, Offutt explores the hunger for belonging that drives our most passionate beliefs, and in the process shows himself to be one of our most powerful storytellers.
