Book excerpt: Quit playing it safe and start running toward the roar! Now available for the first time in a convenient paperback edition and featuring a brand new group discussion guide. When the image of a man-eating beast travels through the optic nerve and into the visual cortex, the brain sends the body a simple but urgent message: run away! That’s what normal people do, but not lion chasers. Rather than seeing a five-hundred-pound problem, they see an opportunity for God to show up and show His power. Chase the Lion is more than a catch phrase; it’s a radically different approach to life. It’s only when we stop fearing failure that we can fully seize opportunity by the mane. With grit and gusto, New York Times best-selling author Mark Batterson delivers a bold message to everyone with a big dream. This is a wake-up call to stop living as if the purpose of life was to simply arrive safely at death. Our dreams should scare us. They should be so big that without God they would be impossible to achieve. Quit running away from what you’re afraid of. Chase the lion! Change the world! What is your five-hundred-pound dream? In this highly anticipated sequel to his best-selling In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, Mark Batterson invites lion chasers everywhere to chase dreams so impossible that victory demands we face our fears, defy the odds, and hold tight to God. These are the kind of dreams that will make you a bigger person and the world a better place. Based upon 2 Samuel 23, Chase the Lion tells the true story of an ancient warrior named Benaiah who chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day—and then killed it. For most people, that situation wouldn’t just be a problem…it would be the last problem they ever faced. For Benaiah, it was an opportunity to step into his destiny. After defeating the lion, he landed his dream job as King David’s bodyguard and eventually became commander-in-chief of Israel’s army under King Solomon. Written in a way that both challenges and encourages, this revolutionary book will help unleash the faith and courage you need to identify, chase, and catch the five-hundred-pound dreams in your life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bobby Clark is a small city detective in late 1950’s Mason-Barrie, Pennsylvania. He is still trying to drown out the nightmare of last year’s calamitous encounter with Willard Strickland by ingesting generous doses of morphine from his trusty silver flask. His fateful encounter with Strickland in the cabin has left his spirits, not to mention his back, in tatters. Aided by his loyal, but stubborn partner, Hank Haynes, and his decidedly mysterious psychiatrist, Dr. Claire Joffre, Bobby tries to ease his way back into the job. But on his first day back on the force, he is confronted with the possibility that Strickland AKA the regionally infamous Lovebirds’ Killer may not have died in that cabin after all. In fact, startling evidence suggests the serial killer have morphed into something far more dangerous and primal. At the first crime scene, Bobby discovers the newest victim displays the slash wounds of a hideous monster, possibly a werewolf. Equally jarring, is the blue baby soother placed in the corpse’s mouth indicating the calling card of his nemesis. As the case progresses, the young detective dimly begins to suspect that some shadowy government entity may have in fact created that rampaging monster. Can Bobby Clark, and his partner Hank, survive the Lovebird’s renewed campaign long enough to get some answers? Even if they escape with their lives, will they be able to deal with the terrible consequences about what they discover? An homage to monster movies of yesteryear, the reading public is introduced to a flawed, but durable hero in Bobby Clark.

Download or read book EMERALD CITY written by Arnold Schildkret and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-03-17 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerald City: The New Adventures of Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz by Arnold Schildkret is a new take on the Oz tales that L. Frank Baum invented. Unlike so many of Baum’s followers who have through the years written imitations of the Oz books, Schildkret invents anew the main characters and the landscape of Oz. His conception of the Deadly Desert is especially different from that in other Oz books, as are his conceptions of Dorothy, Ozma, Roquat and most of all Uncle Henry. In addition, his book tells an exciting tale of adventure and conflict, including dangerous threats to the Land of Oz and even war. -Richard Tuerk, Professor Emeritus of Literature and Languages, Texas A&M University, Commerce, Texas. Author of Oz in Perspective: Magic and Myth in the L. Frank Baum Books The New Adventures of Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz The Story – The Author’s View Emerald City is a modern sequel to the Wizard of Oz novel and film. It is an original story based on the characters of the novels of Frank Baum. Emerald City is a story of the bond of loyalty and friendship in the Land of Oz. Post 9/11/2001, we can all relate to a story of a utopian city where everyone loves each other and in which good triumphs over evil. The World of Oz has been changed by the loss of the Love Magnet. With its loss comes the immanent danger of the loss of the city, destruction of its way of life, and destruction of all of its magical creatures and inhabitants. Other events seem to conspire to ensure the Kingdom will be lost to Roquat, the evil Nome King. It is the humanity and foibles of all of the characters, even the evil ones, which will stir you and tug on your emotions. Humor and sadness, love and hate, good and evil, loss and redemption are mixed in a potpourri of fantasy and reality. Recurrent themes throughout are understanding our differences, loving each other, giving strangers the benefit of the doubt, and standing together in the face of evil. The story plays on four levels, as a fairy tale for children, as science fiction, and social and political satire for teenagers and adults.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Does God Punish Good People and Reward the Bad Guys?A relative of mine recently told me: "Uday, my husband has cancer - that too diagnosed in a very advanced stage. He is a good and pious man. He has helped everybody, loved everybody and done nothing wrong in his life. Still God has punished him..."When an innocent good student was brutally raped in Manipal, one of my friends told me "There are lots of girls who are frequently out at night spending time in pubs drinking and smoking till wee hours of morning - nothing happens to them. God is blind and there is no justice..."Once, a father of a newlywed daughter told me that his son-in-law was found to be totally immoral, drunkard, cheat and corrupt, with some diseases too. Whereas his daughter was a real gem of a human and he never ever thought God would cheat his daughter like this..."Such sad news always upsets me."Why is God so cruel?" they ask."World is unfair to me" is a popular complaint. Recently another friend of mine, Joyson Abraham, raised the same complaint."I understand that you follow certain set of principles in life. I know you follow all do's and don'ts as per your religion..." I said."Yes- still I had this shocking setback in life. My only son is suffering from Multiple Myeloma, bone-marrow cancer. We have been living a pious life..." his eyes welled up with tears. Every time when somebody cries or when I hear sad stories I can't control myself, it makes me cry.I told him: "I empathize with you. I can also feel the pain and pangs in you. So I also cry. But I recover fast. I know that you are a good man. But being good socially, legally, and spiritually (means religion-wise or cult-wise) doesn't necessarily mean you are cosmically good. Unfortunately we know nothing about cosmic rules and laws...""But the God told us how to live""The statements like 'God wants us to behave a certain way to receive rewards from him. Or God wants us to live in a certain way, else we will be sent to rotten hell' are either just fallacies of human mind or hallucinations of the very people who created such statements. No God would ever have come and told such things.""You mean to say there is no point in such beliefs of good and bad?""Joyson, it is good to have beliefs. Beliefs have placebo effects. But beliefs cannot be truth. The concept of 'God commands' is really poetic and philosophical imagination of some brilliant people, who must have considered themselves as prophets or God-sent-messengers. There is some truth in it. But mostly, all those set of principles are based on their CONCEPT of God. And the concepts are developed by the conditioning and learning that they had. Most of the concepts regarding God are similar to the story of the blind men and an elephant. Of course, they may have touched some part of cosmic secrets as 'God's words' but may not be in its entire form. Had they revealed the actual cosmic laws on good and bad, we would have had clear explanation to whatever happens in life...""So being good is no guarantee to...""When you say, being good, you have to add this: "I am being good based on the conditioning that I have about the good." It is subjective good but not cosmic good....""Life is so unfair and uncertain..." he said."The inconsistency of life makes it most beautiful. We do not know why bad things happen to good people like you. Our ego needs reasoning, so we find some stupid reasons to satisfy our ego. There could be many obvious reasons for bad things to happen, like genetic diseases, harm inflicted by others, natural calamities, accidents, financial losses. There may be intangible reasons like result of bad karma in this life or past. We do not know. It rains on everyone, irrespective of you being good or bad. Things happen whether you are good or not. There are ups and downs in life, irrespective of you being good or bad. Why should you associate it with your beliefs?"

And especially not when she has so much on her plate: kids trapped in the middle of bad neighborhood cycles at home and a sister who needs out from under their mother's roof. But helping is in her nature, and something about Micah makes her want to let him in.

When a local drug dealer goes awry, Casey has only one person to turn to-the one who could hurt her heart the most. Micah must face the demons of his past to fight for his new team and new dream-a woman with the heart of a warrior who fights for others. A woman he would die for.

Meanwhile, each story has an opener in the form of an African proverb or a Kanga saying, meant to help one connect them to the stories told. After experiencing joyous love and heartaches, insecurities and swelling pride, abuses and tender reinforcements, Savanna comes out of the callous jungle of life on top, roaring her victorious cries over the plains of Africa.
