Book excerpt: Political unrest shakes the foundations of a war-torn country—and of the McCallum family as they fight for their faith in the Secret of the Rose series. Many years after their daring escape from a divided Germany, Sabina and Matthew McCallum return with their son, Tad, to attend a conference on preaching the gospel of Christ in a country still scarred by the Cold War. What they discover is troubling. Western Christianity, while well intentioned, is not filling the unique needs of Christians in the East. And even though the Cold War is over, political strife is bubbling just below the surface, and Sabina and Matthew become entangled in a Communist plot to seize control of Eastern Europe. Once again, the couple must call upon their instinctive talent for survival—and their deep faith in God’s protection—to save their family.

Book excerpt: In this concise and devastating critique of American progressivism, Sam Orwell demonstrates how perpetual government expansion destroys human liberty. National debt, inflation, and reliance on public-sector problem solving are historical precursors to social injustices by the state. Strong centralized governments confiscate civil liberties for collective goals, and levy punishments on citizens wishing to maintain basic economic freedoms. The United States eerily resembles several nations prior to their transformation into oppressive regimes, and must return to constitutional limited government in order to avoid the coming storm.

Book excerpt: The Liberty Trilogy contemplates the fragility of freedom and liberty by taking its readers on a fictional adventure through American history. Political and economic circumstance, patriotism, and faith guide the main characters through their unnatural journey. The first book, Liberty's Dawn, occurs during the 1780-1781 years of the revolutionary conflict in North America's southern colonies. In Liberty's Dawn, three friends embark on a winter camping trip in the mountains of South Carolina, to escape the stark realities and absurdities of modern society. They have planned a weekend of camp fires, good eating, and target shooting at an outdoor rifle and pistol range. Abruptly, on the first day's hike, an unseen force thrusts them back in time to witness the fall of Charleston to British forces loyal to King George in late spring of the year 1780. How did the friends get here? Why are they here? What should they do now? Nik, Sid, and John must wrestle with these questions and ultimately find their way as history unfolds before them. American history is Nik's passion and seeing the Revolutionary war is like watching a living history of the events he has studied most of his life. John is an avid outdoorsman and Sid is a computer professional with previous contacts throughout the US military. The friends soon discover an evil from America's past is in the wrong place and at the wrong time. Will liberty and freedom expire before it takes root? Will evil triumph?
Download or read book Liberty s Dawn written by Emma Griffin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Emma Griffin gives a new and powerful voice to the men and women whose blood and sweat greased the wheels of the Industrial Revolution” (Tim Hitchcock, author of Down and Out in Eighteenth-Century London). This “provocative study” looks at hundreds of autobiographies penned between 1760 and 1900 to offer an intimate firsthand account of how the Industrial Revolution was experienced by the working class (The New Yorker). The era didn’t just bring about misery and poverty. On the contrary, Emma Griffin shows how it raised incomes, improved literacy, and offered exciting opportunities for political action. For many, this was a period of new, and much valued, sexual and cultural freedom. This rich personal account focuses on the social impact of the Industrial Revolution, rather than its economic and political histories. In the tradition of bestselling books by Liza Picard, Judith Flanders, and Jerry White, Griffin gets under the skin of the period and creates a cast of colorful characters, including factory workers, miners, shoemakers, carpenters, servants, and farm laborers. “Through the ‘messy tales’ of more than 350 working-class lives, Emma Griffin arrives at an upbeat interpretation of the Industrial Revolution most of us would hardly recognize. It is quite enthralling.” —The Oldie magazine “A triumph, achieved in fewer than 250 gracefully written pages. They persuasively purvey Griffin’s historical conviction. She is intimate with her audience, wooing it and teasing it along the way.” —The Times Literary Supplement “An admirably intimate and expansive revisionist history.” —Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Liberty written by William Quinn and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2023-02-03 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberty By: William Quinn After spending the first forty-eight years of his life in Brooklyn, William Quinn has retreated to a secluded, and undisclosed location deep in the woods of Northern Michigan, where he finds it’s possible to reminisce and reflect on the experiences of a long, hard, and varied life that has stretched from the halls of academia, to the halls of tenement crack houses, and many divergent paths in between. Liberty is a playful reminder of how the games children play, and how the ‘hand that rocks the cradle’ can shape the politics, freedom, and the future of a nation. The story opens on a Brooklyn street, and gives us a glimpse into a culture that’s all but forgotten, if not forbidden, and the society that culture had fostered. It’s the perfect book to have with you if you’re stuck in the house on a rainy day, or if you just want to remember how we used to be.

Download or read book The Dawn Mistaken for Dusk written by Leonard Sweet and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-05-18 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first book conceived and acquired specifically to be delivered electronically, Leonard Sweet contends that the church is blind to the changes that are dragging us into the future. Therefore, it is losing its influence as an agent of change and grace in the world. "There are now some companies who absolutely want to change the world more than the church," writes Sweet. He sees the church at a crossroads. It will either see the future as a new dawn and therefore embrace it as opportunity. Or, it will see the future as dusk and therefore hide from the darkness of the world. Sweet believes that God will be in the future, with or without us, and that an "Acts 27" movement is afoot. This book serves as a "naturalization manual" to help Christians achieve full citizenship in the new, postmodern world. It will teach them how to go from being immigrants to natives. From foreigners in a strange land to people of God, confident and at home in a rapidly changing world.
