Download or read book A Chasing of the Wind written by Anthony W. Kalberg and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep in the heart of the Mississippi Gulf Coast just before World War II, a brutal double murder turns the seaside and otherwise peaceful town of Port Haven upside down. But for some who run in certain circles-the political class, the cultural elites-the deaths of wealthy Sebastian DePellepoix and young roughneck Johnnie Necaise aren't such a big surprise. Taking place over a span of twenty years, A Chasing of the Wind is seen through the eyes of Cooper Austin Barnes, the enigmatic sheriff who went to the original murder scene in 1938 with his grandfather, who was Port Haven's sheriff at the time. Sworn into office after returning from World War II (where he spent most of the war years in a German prisoner-of-war camp), Cooper does his best to hold his beloved hometown together through triumph and tragedy (including a Katrina-like hurricane) while slowly gathering clues and evidence that might finally solve the murders. Filled with vivid portraits of the high-society set as well as a likable Andy Griffith sort who won't rest until he's given every last drop of energy to his family, friends, and the place he calls home, A Chasing of the Wind is a bittersweet, suspenseful tale of greed, lust, honor, loyalty...and secrets. Our first look at the mesmerizing work of Mississippi novelist Anthony W. Kalberg, A Chasing of the Wind will only add to the state's sterling literary reputation.

Book excerpt: Prepare for a paradigm-shifting view of biblical manhood. Every man wants to succeed. But for so many, life seems to get in the way. We all have friends—good men, followers of Christ even—who start out well but before long, they’re failing at relationships, bending ethical standards, or driving themselves so hard at work they’re losing the hearts of their wife and kids. In The Real Win, Colt McCoy and Matt Carter wrestle deeply and personally with this challenge, then deliver down-to-earth, biblical answers. Based on their personal experiences and a close study of Scripture, McCoy and Carter show men: • Why so much depends on who you trust and who you serve • Why every man is called to lead and why every man can • How to man up to temptation—and conquer it • How to find the “win” even in your biggest failure “The real win means trusting the Lord and walking with Jesus no matter what,” write Matt and Colt. “That kind of faithfulness is possible for any man who follows God with all his heart. No matter what circumstances threaten him, a faithful man is the most truly confident man in the room.” Now includes bonus section on mentoring, plus a small group reading guide.
Download or read book Philosophy of Qohelet written by Joel Steele and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research compares and contrasts various existential philosophies pertaining to the human condition and its purpose. It specifically focuses on the Old Testament book of Ecclesiastes. Nicomachean Ethics and The Nature of the Gods regarding virtue, courage, and the necessity of an eternal source were examined as they relate to the subject from a Western worldview. The intended contributions of this research are to disclose that without an objectifiable reference society becomes a cluster of subjective abominations susceptible to a miserable existence, a slow descent into madness, “a chasing after the wind.” To escape this vanity something eternal must exist. Nevertheless, humanity must confront the abyss that Nietzsche struggled with in his version of existential philosophy to find meaning in this life. Indeed, when gazing into an abyss the abyss gazes back into humanity, but rather than surrendering one’s autonomy to the meaningless void, individuals should determine the inherent value of their life. Otherwise, death, as Qohelet recognized, has a grip on the individual long before they actually die.
