On the road to Hell, good intentions don’t mean a damn.
Download or read book Wandering Realities written by Steven L. Peck and published by Zarahemla Books. This book was released on with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wandering Realities gathers together much of the Mormon-themed short fiction of perhaps Mormondom's best living writer," says Michael Austin. "The collection is strange, wonderful, eye opening and amazing. It is a book of revelations and spiritual gifts from an immensely talented author to his religious community, which has long needed somebody to show us how strange and wonderful (and strange) we can actually be." "Wandering Realities is perfectly satisfying, a treat from beginning to end," says Steven Evans. "It is alternatively touching and funny and poignant, with horrors and wonders. Steven Peck is a gift to Mormon literature, and any opportunity to read his stories is not to be missed." "This collection is one of the freshest, most engaging, and most entertaining contributions to Mormon literature that I've seen in a long while," says Jonathan Langford. "Steve Peck is an alien. . . . That's the only explanation I can come up with for how, in this set of 16 stories, he so consistently manages to provide such startlingly different, yet at the same time deeply insightful, perspectives on the culture and religion he has adopted for his own." Peck's highly imaginative stories run the gamut from Mormons reverting to a medieval society on Mars to a bishop who is killing the neighborhood dogs. These stories not only entertain and delight, but they challenge and provoke as well. This collection includes several award-winning stories, including: • "Two-Dog Dose"—best short story of 2014, Association for Mormon Letters • "A Strange Report from the Church Archives"—second place, Irreantum fiction contest • "Avek, Who Is Distributed"—first place, Four Centuries of Mormon Fiction Contest 2012 • "When the Bishop Started Killing Dogs"—second place, Four Centuries of Mormon Fiction Contest 2012 "Every story Steven L. Peck writes seems to lead Mormon fiction in exciting and innovative new directions," says Scott Hales. "I hate hyperbole, but Peck might be the Moses of Mormon letters in the twenty-first century." Wandering Realities "may be the book of the year," says Andrew Hall. Peck is "perhaps the most interesting contemporary author of Mormon fiction." "Peck is the best LDS science fiction writer currently out there," says Steven Evans. "Wandering Realities is an immensely enjoyable and powerful collection of short fiction, one that highlights both the possibilities and inevitabilities of Mormonism."
Download or read book What in Hell Conflicts with God written by Kara Lock-Harris and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hell has become the pink elephant in the room. No one wants to discuss this very real and very unpleasant topic. While blessings are at the top of everyone’s conversation, God has been shouting from the heavens that something terrible could very possibly be awaiting. It is time to take the blinders off and come face to face with what God has been saying to His beloved creation on the topic of hell. If we take God at His word, and we should, it is clear that danger is ahead if the warnings are not heeded. God has been promulgating dire information about hell, and He is the absolute best source to do so. What in Hell Conflicts with God presents the authoritative information that God has promulgated to His people and the various methods He used to communicate. Many theologians and philosophers have tackled hell’s doctrine, and all agree that it is problematic for most. The problem of hell is considered the most grotesque and gratuitous of moral evils, especially when the all-loving and all-powerful God is at the center of it. How do you reconcile the Omni-God with hell? Is God morally at fault for humans consigned to hell? The Divine Promulgation View of Hell responds to this hellish moral dilemma by detailing God’s actions to prevent humans from such a terrible fate. What in Hell Conflicts with God reveals the actions taken and the lengths God has gone to prevent humans from eternal punishment. God has not left us to our wits; He has taken action. It is time to listen to what He has to say.

Download or read book The Bicycle Runner written by G. Franco Romagnoli and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2009-08-18 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like all boys growing up in Rome during the 1930s and 1940s, the author was expected to join the Balilla—Italy's fascist Youth Organization. With political divisions running deep in the families within his palazzo, he and his motley group of friends were recruited into the underground Resistance. Racing around Rome on bicycles, they smuggled messages and weapons for the partisans. Later, the author fled to the Italian countryside and narrowly avoided German mop-up operations—despite being sold out by his most trusted of friends. But this is much more than a war story. Lyrical in language, rich in sentimentality, and possessing the magic of a classic Fellini film, Romagnoli's memoir is a charmingly told tale of the search for manhood and the bonds of family and friendship.

Download or read book A Season in Hell written by Jean-Marie Carré and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of nineteen Arthur Rimbaud committed suicide, not in the flesh but as a writer. At that point he had composed a body of poetry now ranked among the classics of France and of the world. He never wrote another line. He cut himself not only from literature but from his native country and from European civilization, and lost himself in the inaccessible mountains of North Africa. When he reappeared it was to die, in torment, in a hospital on the coast. Further research has reconstructed the ‘lost’ life of this extraordinary man and his amazing second career. Traveling as a trader under terrible difficulties, he acted unknowingly as a pioneer agent of the French Empire. The routes he discovered became military and commercial highways of the French Empire in North Africa. Jean Marie Carré has written the first complete and authoritative biography of this genius and adventurer. It opens the mystery of Rimbaud’s renunciation, a profound research into a tortured soul woven into a powerful narrative of his adventures in Africa. Also included in this volume is a translation of Rimbaud’s moving spiritual autobiography A Season in Hell.
