Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for the Major Motion Picture Directed by George Clooney—exclusively in theaters December 25, 2023! The #1 New York Times bestselling true story about the American rowing triumph of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin—from the author of Facing the Mountain For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant. It was an unlikely quest from the start. With a team composed of the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team was never expected to defeat the elite teams of the East Coast and Great Britain, yet they did, going on to shock the world by defeating the German team rowing for Adolf Hitler. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find a real place for himself in the world. Drawing on the boys’ own journals and vivid memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, Brown has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.

Download or read book The Cardboard Boat Book written by and published by Dave Friant. This book was released on 2009 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A step-by-step instruction manual on how to build a lightweight 'environmentally-friendly' boat with recyclable resources. The boats simply fold up from ¼” thick cardboard obtaining their strength from the geometry of the component parts. The boats are 8-feet long, weigh about 25-pounds, and can accommodate a 250-pound person without risking structural damage. Each boat is constructed with 21-pieces of cardboard that are used to make 7-component parts. The 7 parts are assembled together with 'environmentally-friendly' contact cement and paper drywall tape. Once assembled the boats are sealed with an 'environmentally-friendly' water-based waterproof coating. No special tools are required and they are very simple to build. All of the materials used to build a boat are typically found at 'do-it-yourself' home improvement stores. The boats can be outfitted with 12-volt electric fishing motors, although they are typically propelled with traditional Kayak style paddles.

Download or read book Stepping Out Of Your Boat written by Fabian Harper and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-09-30 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whenever your boat of life is in the midst of the sea know that the wind can get contrary before you arrive at your destination. Whatever your boat is, leaving must be done under the command of the Lord. God’s command is authenticated by the authority of his word. The word must remain your sustaining reality that serves as the boarding pass to your destination. Every journey that begins in God must be sustained by a faithful focus on God. We cannot initiate a step, and then solicit God to concur with our plans and direction. If you sense you are sinking, don’t neglect to cry, ‘Lord save me.’ Your cry is the spiritual alarm system that alerts the outstretched hand of the Lord. Your boat is all the realities that you permit to suffocate your God given liberty, while diminishing faith and bridling creative possibilities. The boat will keep you spiritually infantile, seduce by procrastination and religious excuses. Your boat is a religious ceiling that takes every believer into spiritual default. Your position in Christ requires that you step beyond every limit because position determines posture, potential and power in the Kingdom.

The call of God must disarm every thought that compromises my conviction in victory. I decree in all purity that your greatest struggle will come through your self-imposed limits that war against the will of God for your life. Stepping out of your boat is not a walk in pretense but a life that suspends the unknown fears in pursuit of the wonders of God. The inability to step out has isolated your heart from what is chosen for you before the foundation of the world. Too many are dying in the boat because they are afraid of lifes unknown so they become servants of death limiting themselves to a process that defies growth.
