Download or read book God s Red Son written by Louis S. Warren and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive account of the Ghost Dance religion, which led to the infamous massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890 Winner of the Bancroft Prize in American History In 1890, on Indian reservations across the West, followers of a new religion danced in circles until they collapsed into trances. In an attempt to suppress this new faith, the US Army killed over two hundred Lakota Sioux at Wounded Knee Creek. In God's Red Son, historian Louis Warren offers a startling new view of the religion known as the Ghost Dance, from its origins in the visions of a Northern Paiute named Wovoka to the tragedy in South Dakota. To this day, the Ghost Dance remains widely mischaracterized as a primitive and failed effort by Indian militants to resist American conquest and return to traditional ways. In fact, followers of the Ghost Dance sought to thrive in modern America by working for wages, farming the land, and educating their children, tenets that helped the religion endure for decades after Wounded Knee. God's Red Son powerfully reveals how Ghost Dance teachings helped Indians retain their identity and reshape the modern world.

Eo kisses my cheek. “Then you must live for more.” Darrow is a Red, a member of the lowest caste in the color-coded society of the future.

Download or read book Honoring God in Red or Blue written by Dr. Amy E. Black and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politics isn’t a four-letter word. Everyone’s been at that dinner party. The conversation takes a political turn. The arguments start, the atmosphere grows tense, and all that remains is a hopeless stalemate and an awkward silence. Makes you wonder . . . is thoughtful and productive dialogue about politics even possible? In Honoring God in the Red or Blue, Dr. Amy Black addresses the debaters as well as those intimidated or annoyed by the debaters; political junkies and the contented uninvolved. She explains the purposes and limitations of our system and helps readers create realistic expectations for government. While God’s truth is perfect, human application of it is not, a reality that shouldn’t deter us from engaging in debate and staying informed. Rather, it should challenge us to raise our standards for how we speak about the issues—and those in office. It’s time to approach political divides with an extra measure of grace. Success begins with seeking God’s honor first and foremost, regardless of where we fall on the political spectrum. Don’t limit yourself to chatting about the weather.

Download or read book Red God written by Xiaorong Han and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2014-11-06 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robin Hood–style revolutionary Wei Baqun is often described as one of China's "three great peasant leaders," alongside Mao Zedong and Peng Pai. In his home county of Donglan, where he started organizing peasants in the early 1920s, Wei Baqun came to be considered a demigod after his death—a communist revolutionary with supernatural powers. So much legend has grown up around this fascinating figure that it is difficult to know the truth from the tale. Presenting Wei Baqun's life in light of interactions between his local community and the Chinese nation, Red God is organized around the journeys he made from his multiethnic frontier county to major cities where he picked up ideas, methods, and contacts, and around the three revolts he launched back home. Xiaorong Han explores the congruencies and conflicts of local, regional, and national forces at play during Wei Baqun's lifetime while examining his role as a link between his Zhuang people and the Han majority, between the village and the city, and between the periphery and the center.

The Red Sea Rules also is available in Spanish, reglas del Mar Rojo.
Download or read book God s Treasure written by Dr. Pocahontas Schuck and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1978 Ron Wyatt and his two sons discovered and photographed ancient wheels on the floor of the Red Sea. Mr. Wyatt took one of these wheels, a hub with eight spokes, to the director of antiquities in Cairo. The director verified the wheel to be from the eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. Less than ten years later in 1984 they discovered Mt. Sinai in Saudi Arabia. The mountain they found was immediately recognizable due to the fact that only the top was blackened. Exodus 19:18 records that in God’s anger He sent fire down to the top of the mountain. The book is unique in that it takes a mystery of ancient history and explains it in a compelling, easy to follow, and understandable read. There are details that substantiate historical and geographical research, the journey of Moses. Let’s go back in time when two million people walked on dry ground on a pathway normally covered by a sea, each side with mile deep canyons similar to the Grand Canyon of the United States. Learn the background and setting of one of the most miraculous Acts of God that has ever been written...... “Dr. Schuck presents real facts that bring to light truth about a mystery of ancient history. Utilizing her extensive teaching background and solid research she presents a factual and concise narrative of what really happened in The Red Sea Crossing. She makes the case for the true story in a way that is compelling, easy to follow and understandable. I highly recommend this book for all who seek truth. It should be added to every believers’ library of tools for defending the faith.” — Fletcher Christiansen, Industrial Planning Consultant “I believed in the Red Sea Crossing based on faith. It was such a comfort to read the amazing details in God’s Treasure Red Sea Crossing that substantiate, through historical and geographical research, the journey of Moses. Pokie transforms an age-old story into a journey founded in faith and fact.” — Veronica Foster, Author Storybridges, Language Programs for Children
