Download or read book Man At The Cross written by Rev. Bagan Tewa and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MAN AT THE CROSS seeks simply to awaken the feminine intuitive side of the human race which seems to be dormant in our male-dominated society because it comes to the conclusion that if we are to learn lessons from the past in order to affect much needed change, looking at the structure of ancient societies that were peaceful and in harmony with God and nature, it was the woman who was at the head. And if she was not at the head she had equal power in these societies. This book does this through an honest soul-searching approach to looking at our past history. It is prophetic, profound and insightful in its reach from the United States, Europe, the Caribbean and everywhere else in between. The reader is sure to be engaged as the author moves naturally to and from the voice of a layman to prophetic wisdom as Reverend speaking here from this pulpit which compels all to listen and pay attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging collection of essays explores the many ways Americans of every race, class, gender, and political leaning experienced the Baby Boom. This revealing new work goes inside the Baby Boom generation to look at how everyday people within the boomer demographic changed—and were changed by—the course of American history. Baby Boom: People and Perspectives does not focus on one single historic moment, but rather follows different groups within the Baby Boom generation as they move through history. From the generation gap of the 1950s to the civil rights movement, from Vietnam and the counterculture of the 1960s to Watergate and the Reagan era, and from the Clinton years to September 11th and the recent resurgence of conservatism, this insightful social history shows how Baby Boomers across the breadth of American society experienced and impacted the same historic events differently.

In Real Revision, award-winning author and teacher Kate Messner demystifies the revision process for teachers and students alike and provides tried-and-true revision strategies, field tested by students' favorite authors. Kate takes us on a behind-the-scenes look at how more than thirty-five authorsincluding Julie Berry, Watt Key, Loree Griffin Burns , Jane Yolen, Lisa Schroeder, Suzanne Selfors, Eric Luper, Danette Haworth, and Kathi Appeltrevise their works, often many times over, before they appear on library and bookstore shelves. Using successful strategies from her own classroom, Kate teaches how authors use research, brainstorming, and planning as revision tools; how they revise to add detail and make characters stronger; and how students can use those same techniques for all kinds of writing in the classroom. Real Revision features dozens of reproducible 'mentor author pages, with quotes from the authors about their revision processes, and includes related classroom-ready activities. For any teacher who wants to produce strong real-world writers, Real Revision will infuse the classroom with new energy as students use mentor authors as models for their own revision and writing.
