Book excerpt: Senior Ugandan citizen and church elder David Lulaba told us his life story, in part he said: "At age 22, I joined the East African Pioneer Corps, where I learned to write good English. This was a section of the Royal African Marine Corps Rifles (RAMCR), formed for duty in Egypt during World War II. After my 20-year's time expired and my honorable military retirement at age 42, I joined the Uganda Police Force but was dismissed for stubbornness within six months. All in all, I became a vagabond [emphasis added since this story inspires our book's title] until 1976. "When I heard about Jesus Christ as Savior of the world, a Savior of those who hear his words, believe in him, then follow his instructions putting their trust in him and living a Christian life; then I decided to become God's vagabond [emphasis added]. It was September 1976 when a special Christian messenger came to me. We were six in our group, always drinking beer made from ripe bananas, called Indali. "A Kenyan man of God named Mariko Wamache, who has since passed on to be with the Lord, came and passed on the message of salvation. He taught from John 3:16-21 and ended with Matthew 6:25-33. It seemed to us that he experienced our physical and spiritual needs. He prayed with us and for us, and asked us to visit the place where he and others around Mbale were meeting for prayers and worship. All six of us said okay, that we would come, but I was the only one who actually went. Slowly by slowly this man and other church members kept me thinking about my needs in Jesus Christ." Yes indeed, we often recall the person or persons introducing us to Jesus our Lord, yet afterward, are we willing to become one of God's vagabonds? Consider your answer while reading this book.
Download or read book Strange Vagabond of God written by John Dove and published by Gracewing Publishing. This book was released on 1997 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Bradburne's life was a remarkable spiritual odyssey. After wartime service on the Indian sub-continent he became a perennial pilgrim, never at home in the world, not even in his native England. Restless wanderings led him through Europe to the Holy Land, to a succession of religious communities, and ultimately to Africa, where he met a violent death during the Zimbabwean war of independence in 1979. This astonishing account of his life among the lepers, and the astonishing events at his funeral, make it clear that here was a man marked with special charisma, who was marked out for sanctity. Since his death devotion to his memory has sprung up in southern Africa and elsewhere. Poet, mystic, hermit and vagabond, John Bradburne's life was a ceaseless quest for God. Fr John Dove SJ first met John Bradburne during the Second World War. He entered the Jesuits in 1949 and served the Zimbabwe mission for over thirty years.

Download or read book Reflections of a Vagabond written by Joseph Sterling and published by Your Voice Creations. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joseph's story goes beyond religion to speak to the issues of our time with a unique personal candor few people are able to bring to the table. It's the story of a bi-racial teenager trying to figure out what it meant to be a half-black teen with white skin in the racially charged culture of the post-civil-rights era. It's a story of a son of middle-class America who chose to live outside the middle-class culture his father worked hard to provide for him and his brothers. It's the story of a young man who hated God until the gospel of Jesus Christ changed his life. Joseph's life's experiences have enabled him to speak to a number of different issues in a very unique way and that's exactly what he does here. Journey beyond the abstract conceptual debates of our societal tensions to see those tensions played out in the life of a child trying to find his place in a confusing culture.

"Cornwell writes the best battle scenes of any writer I've read past or present."—George R.R. Martin
Download or read book Vagabonds written by Eloghosa Osunde and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORKER LONGLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE “If you read one debut novel in 2022, this should be it.” —Los Angeles Times In the bustling streets and cloistered homes of Lagos, a cast of vivid characters—some haunted, some defiant—navigate danger, demons, and love in a quest to lead true lives. As in Nigeria, vagabonds are those whose existence is literally outlawed: the queer, the poor, the displaced, the footloose and rogue spirits. They are those who inhabit transient spaces, who make their paths and move invisibly, who embrace apparitions, old vengeances and alternative realities. Eloghosa Osunde's brave, fiercely inventive novel traces a wild array of characters for whom life itself is a form of resistance: a driver for a debauched politician with the power to command life and death; a legendary fashion designer who gives birth to a grown daughter; a lesbian couple whose tender relationship sheds unexpected light on their experience with underground sex work; a wife and mother who attends a secret spiritual gathering that shifts her world. As their lives intertwine—in bustling markets and underground clubs, churches and hotel rooms—vagabonds are seized and challenged by spirits who command the city's dark energy. Whether running from danger, meeting with secret lovers, finding their identities, or vanquishing their shadowselves, Osunde's characters confront and support one another, before converging for the once-in-a-lifetime gathering that gives the book its unexpectedly joyous conclusion. Blending unvarnished realism with myth and fantasy, Vagabonds! is a vital work of imagination that takes us deep inside the hearts, minds, and bodies of a people in duress—and in triumph.

Download or read book Musashi written by Eiji Yoshikawa and published by Vertical, Inc.. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 1547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic samurai novel about the real exploits of the most famous swordsman. Miyamoto Musashi was the child of an era when Japan was emerging from decades of civil strife. Lured to the great Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 by the hope of becoming a samurai—without really knowing what it meant—he regains consciousness after the battle to find himself lying defeated, dazed and wounded among thousands of the dead and dying. On his way home, he commits a rash act, becomes a fugitive and brings life in his own village to a standstill—until he is captured by a weaponless Zen monk. The lovely Otsu, seeing in Musashi her ideal of manliness, frees him from his tortuous punishment, but he is recaptured and imprisoned. During three years of solitary confinement, he delves into the classics of Japan and China. When he is set free again, he rejects the position of samurai and for the next several years pursues his goal relentlessly, looking neither to left nor to right. Ever so slowly it dawns on him that following the Way of the Sword is not simply a matter of finding a target for his brute strength. Continually striving to perfect his technique, which leads him to a unique style of fighting with two swords simultaneously, he travels far and wide, challenging fighters of many disciplines, taking nature to be his ultimate and severest teacher and undergoing the rigorous training of those who follow the Way. He is supremely successful in his encounters, but in the Art of War he perceives the way of peaceful and prosperous governance and disciplines himself to be a real human being He becomes a reluctant hero to a host of people whose lives he has touched and been touched by. And, inevitably, he has to pit his skill against the naked blade of his greatest rival. Musashi is a novel in the best tradition of Japanese story telling. It is a living story, subtle and imaginative, teeming with memorable characters, many of them historical. Interweaving themes of unrequited love, misguided revenge, filial piety and absolute dedication to the Way of the Samurai, it depicts vividly a world Westerners know only vaguely. Full of gusto and humor, it has an epic quality and universal appeal. The novel was made into a three-part movie by Director Hiroshi Inagai. For more information, visit the Shopping area

But the group finds itself with no real home, no friends, and fractured allegiances as they struggle to find a sense of community and identity trapped between two worlds.
