Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wake of the September 11th tragedy is something that will always weigh down in the back of our psyches. Even though the events of that horrific day will live in infamy--from the ashes of the twin towers arose heroes that we always had among us. Few survived that tragic day, those who did have a new found perspective on life. Joseph Torrillo's story of courage, bravery and survival on September 11, 2001 is truly inspiring. As one of the few survivors of the collapse of the towers, September 11th is a day that Torrillo will remember most of his life. Nearly 3000 people lost their lives that horrific September morning. Why does God allow some to live and some to die in times of tragedy? No one really knows the answer. Every life have a purpose, rather that purpose be great or small. Torrillo's new found purpose is destined to be a great one.

Download or read book A Tempered Faith written by Jennifer Sands and published by Olive Press (NJ). This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God answers prayers. Jennifer Sands believed that. When she prayed for professional advancement, she got it. When she prayed for a mortgage approval, it came. When she prayed that her terminally ill brother be allowed to live, he was. When she prayed that her husband, Jim, return home safely from work, he always did. On September 11, 2001, Jim Sands was killed in the collapse of the World Trade Center. On that day, Jennifer's world imploded, and she suffered the first blows of a pounding spiritual firestorm that threatened to poison her faith and suffocate her relationship with God. Why would God answer her prayers for Jim's safety this way? Why would God send Jim to her as a soul mate only to rip him away in the prime of his life? Had God stopped listening? Had He stopped caring? Had they done something to deserve this? Book jacket.

Download or read book From the Ashes written by Jesse Thistle and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER *Winner, Kobo Emerging Writer Prize Nonfiction *Winner, Indigenous Voices Awards *Winner, High Plains Book Awards *Finalist, CBC Canada Reads *A Globe and Mail Book of the Year *An Indigo Book of the Year *A CBC Best Canadian Nonfiction Book of the Year In this extraordinary and inspiring debut memoir, Jesse Thistle, once a high school dropout and now a rising Indigenous scholar, chronicles his life on the streets and how he overcame trauma and addiction to discover the truth about who he is. If I can just make it to the next minute...then I might have a chance to live; I might have a chance to be something more than just a struggling crackhead. From the Ashes is a remarkable memoir about hope and resilience, and a revelatory look into the life of a Métis-Cree man who refused to give up. Abandoned by his parents as a toddler, Jesse Thistle briefly found himself in the foster-care system with his two brothers, cut off from all they had known. Eventually the children landed in the home of their paternal grandparents, whose tough-love attitudes quickly resulted in conflicts. Throughout it all, the ghost of Jesse’s drug-addicted father haunted the halls of the house and the memories of every family member. Struggling with all that had happened, Jesse succumbed to a self-destructive cycle of drug and alcohol addiction and petty crime, spending more than a decade on and off the streets, often homeless. Finally, he realized he would die unless he turned his life around. In this heartwarming and heart-wrenching memoir, Jesse Thistle writes honestly and fearlessly about his painful past, the abuse he endured, and how he uncovered the truth about his parents. Through sheer perseverance and education—and newfound love—he found his way back into the circle of his Indigenous culture and family. An eloquent exploration of the impact of prejudice and racism, From the Ashes is, in the end, about how love and support can help us find happiness despite the odds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Put on your walking shoes because in this book you will walk through twenty-two years. You’ll walk down long roads and see many things with the woman of a family Satan worked hard to destroy. You’ll see how Satan preys on individuals, marriages, and families, and how he works extra hard on those he’s afraid of. You’ll see spiritual growth in yourself while walking down roads of your own through journaling, studying scripture, and praying through your own struggles. You’ll see proof like never before of God’s mighty hand at work chapter after chapter. You’ll see normal, imperfect people make big mistakes on their road to redemption and likely be able to identify with them in some areas of your own life and marriage. As you take this journey, you’ll walk the roads that led to the destruction of a marriage and see that it was too messy and impossible to fix. Then you’ll see how our God is the God of the impossible and how a woman who once took roads that separated her from God and her husband walked those same roads that led her back into God’s perfect will. The best part is you’ll see Satan lose the war as you walk with her through fire and see Bitty rise from ashes. God has never lost a battle, and He never will!

Download or read book Preaching from Memory to Hope written by Thomas G. Long and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2009-03-19 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling and hard-hitting book, respected preacher and teacher Thomas Long identifies and responds to what he sees as the most substantive theological forces and challenges facing preaching today. The issues, he says, are fourfold: the decline in the quality of narrative preaching and the need for its reinvigoration; the tendency of preachers to ignore God's action and presence in our midst; the return of the church's old nemesis, gnosticism--albeit in a milder form--evidenced in today's new "spirituality"; and the absence of eschatology in the pulpit. Long once again has his finger on the pulse of American preaching, demonstrated by his creative responses to these challenges. Whether he is calling for theologically smarter and more ethically discerning preaching, providing a method of interpretation that will allow pastors to recover the emphasis on God in our midst, or encouraging a kind of "interfaith dialogue" with gnosticism, he demonstrates why he has long been considered one of the most thoughtful and intelligent preachers in America today.
