This book is also designed to be a handbook or guide. This guide will help people understand why the Church and Religion will still be very important after disclosure of intelligent alien life happens.

Download or read book Been There Done That written by Rachi Ngaine, MSPA CPA CGMA and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-08-04 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lifetime story titled Been There, Done That, Rachi Ngaine recounts and narrates personal experience of survival, coping with challenges of growing up in a traditional learning environment from early childhood in his native Kenyan village. It amplifies the appetite and personal struggles for education/knowledge through public schools, college/university, choosing a career path, and taking grueling handwritten academic/professional exams toward jobs that led to self-actualization/self-esteem and a formal retirement at age seventy-five. The book is an affirmation of a typical family's basic value system, endurance, and human dignity. The story impresses upon a family legacy, focus, and values that; the roots of a family tree go way deep, and its branches enlarge; the relationships must be infinite unless curtailed by natural causes; the physical or economic ranking of a family member must have no consequence upon the phenomenon of belonging, identity, originality, nationality, and material support, and a family resemble God's universal family whereby the brethren have equal rights of inheritance. Moreover, the book inspires the reader to be a character builder, compassionate, a goal setter, courageous, hopeful, innovative, a leader, a mentor/role model, responsible, sensitive, a servant, strong, and trustworthy; and have empathy, foresight, humor, and organizational skills. Also, Rachi's life-changing facts of life in the United States for almost fifty years are intriguing to aspiring future immigrants into the twenty-first-century "superpower" base. The book is engaging, arouses personal traits, self-determination, triggers motivation, and assures worthiness. The "Humorous Notes" in the last pages of the book are likely to crank up the readers and even wet their eyes. Finally, the readers would be exposed to the fact that whenever there is will, "there is a way." Ideally, God's grace has enabled the anointed the blessings of spiritual gifts of love, joy, peace, perseverance, and self-control. The elect are promised success in whatever they undertake-in the name of Jesus. Indeed, the faithful in Christ would be moved and enticed to keep on and finish the race and win the crown of salvation. Rachi is on it! Please join in.

Download or read book Let There Be Light written by Mark L. Clifford and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The remarkable success of twentieth-century Hong Kong was driven by electricity. The British colony’s stunning export-driven economic growth, its status as a Cold War capitalist dynamo, its energetic civil society, its alluring urban modernity—all of these are stories of electricity’s transformative power. Let There Be Light is a groundbreaking history of electrification in Hong Kong. Mark L. Clifford traces how a power company and its visionary founder jumpstarted Hong Kong’s postwar economic rise and set in motion far-reaching political and social change against the backdrop of Hong Kong’s shifting relations with the People’s Republic of China and the United Kingdom. Clifford examines avowedly laissez-faire Hong Kong’s attempt to nationalize electricity companies and the longer-term implications of debates over the power supply for citizen activism and the development of civil society, government involvement in tackling housing and other social issues, and state controls on private businesses. Clifford explores the effects of electrification on both grand politics and daily life. In the geopolitical struggle of the Cold War, Hong Kong became an explicitly anti-Communist showcase of production and consumption. Its bright lights and neon signs stood in contrast to the darkness and drabness of neighboring China. Electricity transformed people’s everyday lives, allowing children to study at night, streets to be lit, and shops in a self-consciously commercial mecca to stay open late. Offering new perspectives on twentieth-century Hong Kong, Let There Be Light reveals electricity as a catalyst of modernization.
