Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Knights of St. Nicholas, Protector of the Children: A Comprehensive Guide for Defending Christian Schools "Saint Nicholas is protector of little children and youths first of all from evil-the evil of adults, who are responsible for their own evil plans. He is the protector of all from the evil one, who works through us weak humans." Christian Schools and Christian Churches have become the direct and deliberate targets of minions of Satan. We are witnessing this every day. To deny or ignore this will not keep our children safe. Paul G. Markel is a Certified Protection Specialist and has been a Professional Bodyguard in the United States and overseas. Mr. Markel wrote this manual to address not only the problem, but to provide true solutions that can be implemented immediately to protect our children from evil. "Knights of St. Nicholas: Protector of Children" is a comprehensive manual for developing and implementing a team of volunteers to provide security for and protect Christian Schools. While this is a topic we all wish we did not have to consider, ignoring the threat will not make it go away. The time to prepare is now.

Download or read book The Teutonic Knights in the Holy Land 1190 1291 written by Nicholas Edward Morton and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed study of the Teutonic Knights in the Holy Land, covering both their military and administrative affairs. The Teutonic Order was founded in 1190 to provide medical care for crusaders in the kingdom of Jerusalem. In time, it assumed a military role and played an important part in the defence of the Christian territories in the EasternMediterranean and in the Baltic regions of Prussia and Livonia; in the Levant, it fought against the neighbouring Islamic powers, whilst managing their turbulent relations with their patrons in the papacy and the German Empire. Asthe Order grew, it colonised territories in Prussia and Livonia, forcing it to address how it distributed its resources between its geographically-spread communities. Similarly, the brethren also needed to develop an organisational framework that could support the conduct of war on frontiers that were divided by hundreds of miles. This book - the first comprehensive analysis of the Order in the Holy Land - explores the formative years of this powerful international institution and places its deeds in the Levant within the context of the wider Christian, pagan and Islamic world. It examines the challenges that shaped its identity and the masters who planned its policies. Dr NICHOLAS MORTON is Lecturer in History at Nottingham Trent University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Former secretary of education and New York Times bestselling author William Bennett blends his historical expertise with his gift for storytelling into a heartwarming book about the man who ultimately became known as Santa Claus. Beloved writer and speaker William Bennett brings the legendary Saint Nicholas to life in this fascinating and faith-affirming book that will change the way you think about Santa Claus and the meaning of Christmas. Bennett reflects on Saint Nicholas’s storied life, which has spanned seventeen centuries across Europe, Asia, and Africa, and reveals an inspiring tale of devotion to God and an example of eternal goodness. The True Saint Nicholas: Why He Matters to Christmas focuses on three aspects of Saint Nicholas—historical facts from his life, his legacy in the centuries following his death, and the legendary status that transformed his likeness into the present-day jolly, toy-bearing Santa Claus. The book vividly captures the heart and life of someone who lived long ago—and yet whose life remains an inspiration for everyone to aspire to a higher order of generosity, giving, and devotion to others. An instant classic by one of America’s most respected thinkers, The True Saint Nicholas is a memorable keepsake to be shared with family and friends every year to evoke the true spirit of Christmas.
