Download or read book The Gnostic Warriors Book 2 written by Marvin Etheridge and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Then the brothers were Gnostic warriors seeking to grow their way out of that time. Now, much later the two have less time to make sense of what was forgotten or never understood. They pick one October week at their child’s beach to discover secrets buried. In thus doing they disturb the past in the oncoming storm and release from their search a storm started in the past that once found out must end. Once again they become warriors as they unknowingly call up a devil from their Gnostic past. As the reader becomes entangled in the brothers’ spiders’ web, he or she find a reality, foreign but not to be hugged tightly because the story is familiar. The story began as a child recalled with his accepting mind the events always remembered but did not know if they happened that way or at all. The grown child remembered but was the recall of long past events tainted by some coexistent disease that hid the truth? Is his past deceiving them now? Either way the adult mind with its own hard learned prejudice would need to attempt to find the answers of long ago, itself buried deep, but not dead. Now, on a stormy October beach in North Carolina as the two brothers, Gnostic warriors of a time past, seek the truth, the truth reveals itself, not quite evil, but evil not always is. The King James Bible puts it well in Romans 1:18: “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;”

Download or read book Women Warriors of WW2 written by Jeanette B Reid and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 1939 - war is imminent for the people of Britain. It is becoming increasingly clear that every able bodied man will be needed on the battlefront and that British women will have to take over the jobs the men left for military service. This is the narrative of Scottish women in particular - through their stories, experiences, and sacrifices - how they not only kept Scotland and Britain alive but helped change the course of history. "Some historians like to think that the British were very fortunate when Hitler grew impatient with his attempt to run over the British Isles, becoming distracted, then moving his attention to the Russian Front. I take a different perspective. Hitler found that it was much tougher to defeat the British people than he or any of his top aides ever imagined. We had many losses in our military and civilian population, but we were able to call upon every available man to fight on the frontline because we had a secret weapon at home keeping the country surviving - Our Women!!!" - Jeanette B. Reid

Download or read book From Widows to Warriors written by Lynn Japinga and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For too long the women of the Bible have been depicted in one-dimensional terms. On one side are saints, such as Mary, while on the other are "bad girls," such as Eve and Jezebel. Just as often, the female characters of the Bible are simply ignored. However, the women of the Bible are complex, multidimensional individuals whose lives are inspiring, funny, and tragic in ways too many of us never hear. In this first of two volumes, Lynn Japinga acquaints us with the women of the Old Testament. From flawed heroes like Ruth and Rahab to fierce fighters like Deborah and Jael to tragic characters like Jephthah's daughter and the unnamed concubine of the book of Judges, readers will encounter a wealth of foremothers in the faith in all their messy, yet redeemable, humanity. This Bible study introduces and retells every female character who contributes to one or more Old Testament stories, diving deeply into what each woman's story means for us today with questions for reflection and discussion.

Download or read book On Pluto Inside the Mind of Alzheimer s written by Greg O'Brien and published by Good Night books. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about living with Alzheimer’s, not dying with it. It is a book about hope, faith, and humor—a prescription far more powerful than the conventional medication available today to fight this disease. Alzheimer’s is the sixth leading cause of death in the US—and the only one of these diseases on the rise. More than 5 million Americans have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia; about 35 million people worldwide. Greg O’Brien, an award-winning investigative reporter, has been diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's and is one of those faceless numbers. Acting on long-term memory and skill coupled with well-developed journalistic grit, O’Brien decided to tackle the disease and his imminent decline by writing frankly about the journey. O’Brien is a master storyteller. His story is naked, wrenching, and soul searching for a generation and their loved ones about to cross the threshold of this death in slow motion. On Pluto: Inside the Mind of Alzheimer’s is a trail-blazing roadmap for a generation—both a “how to” for fighting a disease, and a “how not” to give up!

Download or read book Hug Everyone You Know written by Antoinette Truglio Martin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antoinette Martin believed herself to be a healthy and sturdy woman—that is, until she received a Stage 1 breast cancer diagnosis. Cancer is scary enough for the brave, but for a wimp like Martin, it was downright terrifying. Martin had to swallow waves of nausea at the thought of her body being poisoned, and frequently fainted during blood draws and infusions. To add to her terror, cancer suddenly seemed to be all around her. In the months following her diagnosis, a colleague succumbed to cancer, and five of her friends were also diagnosed. Though tempted, Martin knew she could not hide in bed for ten months. She had a devoted husband, daughters, and a tribe of friends and relations. Along with work responsibilities, there were graduations, anniversaries, and roller derby bouts to attend, not to mention a house to sell and a summer of beach-bumming to enjoy. In order to harness support without scaring herself or anyone else, she journaled her experiences and began to e-mail the people who loved her—the people she called My Everyone. She kept them informed and reminded all to 'hug everyone you know' at every opportunity. Reading the responses became her calming strategy. Ultimately, with the help of her community, Martin found the courage within herself to face cancer with perseverance and humor.

If you are struggling with this disease as a caregiver, you will undoubtedly identify with many of the same experiences.

Perhaps you can find a respite in each chapter and take away valuable information.
