Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether it’s fearful side hugs on one side or sexual abuse on the other, both the culture and the church aren’t doing very well with touch. Singles are staying single longer, dating is wrought with angst over purity, and marriages struggle to not interpret all forms of touch as sexual. Even the Bible seems to have endless rules about not touching things. There is simply no place where touch doesn’t seem threatened or threatening. But a curious thing happens when Jesus comes into His ministry: He touches. Jesus touches the sick and the outcast, the bleeding and the unclean. What could it mean for families, singles, marriages, churches, communities, and the world to have healthy, pure, faithful, ministering touch? Somewhere in the mess of our assumptions and fears about touch, there is something beautiful and good and God-given. As Jesus can show us, there is ministry in touching.

Download or read book Kharshouf and other Stories written by Jack Debney and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-01-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An atmospheric collection of 5 stories, all with vivid characterisation and a strong sense of place. Three of the stories included in this collection feature the character Jim Skaife, who has appeared in the author’s earlier works. In ‘Tracking’ we see him as a young boy in a northern town, exploring friendships and the dark, bombed-out slums. In ‘The Wooden Ship’ we return to Jim’s infancy and a unloved gift given by a German POW. The eponymous story ‘Kharshouf’ features our central character as he reminisces about his time in Alexandria – an experience he has shared with the author. ‘Artichoke is an Arabic word originally: kharshouf,’ our guest had explained at the beginning of his stay. ‘And when Mr Khrushchev, the Russian leader but not for much longer, came to Egypt in 1964, people started nicknaming him “Kharshouf” - not because he resembled one all that spectacularly but because of the similar sounds to the words. It made you look at politics in a different way when you realised that the world could be blown to bits by an artichoke!’ Jack is influenced by writers as diverse as Graham Greene and Wilkie Collins.A sequence infused with a northern ambience, a strong setting and the characters battle against adverse circumstances and survive.

Book excerpt: The ex-military pilot. The bewitched single mother. The plane crash that saves their lives. Getting pregnant by the wrong man and trying to make it right didn’t serve me well. It’s been years and we’re not any closer to where we should be. Working night and day in an I.C.U. doesn’t bode well for a relationship, either, but I’m doing my best. Tonight, the most beautiful man walks into the hospital. He’s here for his father, who was just rushed in with a massive heart attack. If the man lives through the night, I’ll be surprised. His son, Garrett Ford, is a pilot, and he’s dressed like one. It’s difficult to focus on my job with a man who is larger than life, and dressed to kill, with piercingly blue eyes and full lips. What’s more, he’s very polite and professional, which gets me. When his father wakes up for just a second and thinks I’m his estranged wife, Garrett looks at me in a way that I’ll never forget. *** She’s hands down the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. Nora could stop traffic. What’s more, she’s smart, hard working, independent, and she’s the best single parent I’ve ever met. Her kid’s dad is a pill, but I have to turn the other cheek with him around, even though I know he’d rather see me crash and burn than see Nora and I together. I soon learn what lengths he’ll go to to remove me from the picture. We’ll see how far he gets. Trouble is, Nora sees him through a different set of eyes, and there is no convincing her that he is what he is. It’s tough being the outsider in this three person relationship, and sometimes I feel like Nora’s daughter Missy just puts up a front for me. I mean, what kid wouldn’t want her natural father and mother to be together? Soon, it’s clear just how much that is true… HEA (Happily Ever After) Second chance romance Medical romance Military romance Medium heat Course language Mild cliffhanger ending Third book in a complete 5 book standalone series "An emotional story that grabs you from the beginning.
