Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mr. Channing is devoted to his garden, but it is his youngest daughter Christine who is truly the apple of his eye. When Christine’s fiancé breaks off his engagement to her at the request of his grandfather, Mr. Channing is persuaded by his wife and other daughters to take Christine to Portugal for a holiday. They are charmed by the country where they soon make many friends. Among them, the Baronesa Narvão who invites them to stay in her luxurious mansion. But the Baronesa is not all she appears to be… Note from the Author's Daughter: When my mother, Elizabeth Cadell, wrote her book with the Title of BE MY GUEST, it was, as usual, immediately accepted by Hodder and Stoughton, her British publishers. However, when the book was sent to her American publishers,William Morrow and Co, their opinion was that the parents of the heroine, Christine, and the grandfather of the hero, James, gradually came to occupy a more prominent place in the story than the young couple themselves. William Morrow therefore asked Mrs. Cadell to rectify this, and my mother obliged, rewriting the last half of her novel and restoring Christine and James to the forefront of the story. Thus, COME BE MY GUEST came to be written and was published in America, while Elizabeth Cadell’s original book, entitled BE MY GUEST was published in Britain. I remember that my mother always felt disappointed that the romance between Katherine and Charles had been “edited out” by William Morrow in COME BE MY GUEST. I entirely agree with her, and so I have taken the liberty of reintroducing this couple into the book. To do this I have taken the relevant passages from BE MY GUEST and reinserted them into Morrow’s edition. I feel sure that my mother would have approved of this, and I hope her readers will feel the same way.
Download or read book Come Lord Jesus Be Our Guest written by Marian Korth and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Come, Lord Jesus, be our guest." And he came-as a homeless man, a stranger, a friend. Marian Korth and her partner, Mim Jacobson, have served breakfast to thousands of overnight guests in their home, but they didn't bother to offer a cup of coffee to a homeless man huddling on their doorstep one cold winter morning. Why didn't they welcome this "Jesus" into their home? Marian has more to learn about hospitality, even after sixty years of adventures in hospitality. She can tell stories about being hospitable (or not) from: - Growing up on a small dairy farm in Wisconsin - Living in Chicago for twenty years - Returning to Wisconsin and turning their farmhouse into a bed and breakfast - Providing end-of-life care for guests who live with Marian and Mim in their home - Transforming their bed and breakfast into a spiritual retreat center Kindness is the common thread that runs through all these adventures in hospitality. The first verse Marian memorized as a child was Ephesians 4:32, "Be ye kind, one to another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." (She memorized it and still thinks about it in the King James Version.) In these stories, Marian reflects on what God is telling her about being hospitable. She thinks it's pretty exciting to know that God has told us, "Be ready with a meal or a bed when it's needed. Why, some have extended hospitality to angels without ever knowing it!" (Hebrews 13:2 The Message)

Nothing stops Aurora--that is, nothing short of a Texas flash flood.

But beautiful Aurora has attracted the attention of two unsavory characters stalking her. Rancher Will Harrison rescues her from the raging waters and she's his guest for the next thirty-six hours. That's long enough for Will to fall head over heels in major attraction, and he has a hunch she might feel the same. He has a plan to keep her around until he convinces her to move out of the fast lane and into his life forever. But two predators have other plans for Aurora. Can Will save her in time? Can Aurora save herself?

Download or read book Colloquies written by Desiderius Erasmus and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 1320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Erasmus' Familiar Colloquies grew from a small collection of phrases, sentences, and snatches of dialogue written in Paris about 1497 to help his private pupils improve their command of Latin. Twenty years later the material was published by Johann Froben (Basel 1518). It was an immediate success and was reprinted thirty times in the next four years. For the edition of March 1522 Erasmus began to add fully developed dialogues, and a book designed to improve boys' use of Latin (and their deportment) soon became a work of literature for adults, although it retained traces of its original purposes. The final Froben edition (March, 1533) had about sixty parts, most of them dialogues. It was in the last form that the Colloquies were read and enjoyed for four centuries. For modern readers it is one of the best introductions to European society of the Renaissance and Reformation periods, with lively descriptions of daily life and provocative discussions of political, religious, social, and literary topics, presented with Erasmus's characteristic wit and verve. Each colloquy has its own introduction and full explanatory, historical, and biographical notes. Volumes 39 and 40 of the Collected Works of Erasmus series - Two-volume set.
