Book excerpt: U-Turn to Paradise provides the reader with a figurative treasure map that is oftentimes described in literal terms. Revealed in the stories that are retold is a how-to-get-to-heaven-from-here-to-there book. Testimonials from believers provide statements of miraculous deliveries, which also define their level of Christian faith and express how ordinary people overcome day-to-day struggles and relationship dramas through the power of prayer, praise, and living holy to the glory of God. Through the reading of their testimonies, one may find out how to do the same in one's life--that is, make a "U-turn to paradise." We see how they, through the power of the Holy Spirit, established true Christian boundaries and practical worship in the name of Jesus Christ in a world that has become more and more accepting of evil with each passing day! Other testimonials are gleaned from the lives of biblical figures. In these stories, Marilyn reveals how these inspired men of God struggled to either regain their spiritual compass or were determined to help others to discover the blessings and the practical benefits of making their "U-turn to paradise." She uses the retelling of these testimonials to showcase how-to examples, even algorithms, of how one who is living in today's 2012, 2013, and 2014 generation and beyond can follow the narrow path in the way that Jesus of Nazareth went to return to the great God in heaven! You will also learn that you must be spiritually fit--that is, "U" must repent of your sins and ask God for His unfailing mercy to be cleansed of all unrighteousness! At the writing of the second edition, God has blessed her to reside in Rancho Cordova, California, a city located just east of Sacramento, the state capital! In closing, she prays in the holy name of Jesus is that may it grow fervently, your desire to serve Him, He who can hold you blameless before God (2 Peter 3.14), "in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24) day by day by all day; may you purpose in your heart in these evil-filled days to be with the Lord Jesus Christ; and may you answer the divine call of your shepherd and your King to be a member of His remnant church and thus return unto Him to live in paradise (Psalm 23:1; Revelation 2:7)! A-m-e-n! A-m-e-n! A-l-l-e-l-u-i-a!
Download or read book U Turn Killur written by Teric Darken and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2010-12-29 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the moth attracted to the very glow that will kill it? A maniacal killer is preying upon a firefighter's family, stripping them from his life: one by one; piece by piece. It took every ounce of energy Lieutenant Gabe McLaughlin possessed in resisting the undertow of a mental breakdown as his best friend, Detective Jeff Spencer, told him the horrific news. And Jeff was fighting the same fight, against the same psychological beast, as he uttered the grisly details: Gabe's mother, Ira McLaughlin, had been butchered to death: Dissected... slowly. Apparently, the killer took pleasure in cutting off appendages- one section at a time- at each of the major joints in the extremities. A tourniquet had been applied preventing massive blood loss... the victim eventually succumbed to shock. As insult to injury, the killer had also etched a note into the victims torso: will U-turn and look the other way, or watch while I kill? -KiLLuR

Download or read book U Turn written by Bruce Grierson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this impressively researched and incisive book, Bruce Grierson draws on over three hundred stories of so-called "U-turners," who have risked their livelihoods to answer a sudden wake-up call. We meet people who change political parties and careers, doctors who quit to become poets, men who become women, people who suddenly become revolutionaries for a cause they didn't care about the day before. In chapters that address everything from the neuroscience behind epiphanies to the possibility of "forcing" a U-turn, Grierson brilliantly describes and elucidates this powerful, mysterious phenomenon, and in doing so illuminates all of our continual struggles with life choices and identity.

Expecting little more than a weekend diversion, Lewis finds himself in a mystical place where two worlds meet, in the time-between-times--and in the heart of a battle between good and evil. The ancient Celts admitted no separation between this world and the Otherworld: the two were delicately interwoven, each dependent on the other.

Download or read book Blue Latitudes written by Tony Horwitz and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2003-08 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boldly Going Where Captain Cook Has Gone Before Two centuries after James Cook's epic voyages of discovery, Tony Horwitz takes readers on a wild ride across hemispheres and centuries to recapture the Captain’s adventures and explore his embattled legacy in today’s Pacific. Horwitz, a Pulitzer Prize-winner and author of Confederates in the Attic, works as a sailor aboard a replica of Cook’s ship, meets island kings and beauty queens, and carouses the South Seas with a hilarious and disgraceful travel companion, an Aussie named Roger. He also creates a brilliant portrait of Cook: an impoverished farmboy who became the greatest navigator in British history and forever changed the lands he touched. Poignant, probing, antic, and exhilarating, Blue Latitudes brings to life a man who helped create the global village we inhabit today.
Download or read book This Is Paradise written by Kristiana Kahakauwila and published by Hogarth. This book was released on 2013-07-09 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elegant, brutal, and profound—this magnificent debut captures the grit and glory of modern Hawai'i with breathtaking force and accuracy. In a stunning collection that announces the arrival of an incredible talent, Kristiana Kahakauwila travels the islands of Hawai'i, making the fabled place her own. Exploring the deep tensions between local and tourist, tradition and expectation, façade and authentic self, This Is Paradise provides an unforgettable portrait of life as it’s truly being lived on Maui, Oahu, Kaua'i and the Big Island. In the gut-punch of “Wanle,” a beautiful and tough young woman wants nothing more than to follow in her father’s footsteps as a legendary cockfighter. With striking versatility, the title story employs a chorus of voices—the women of Waikiki—to tell the tale of a young tourist drawn to the darker side of the city’s nightlife. “The Old Paniolo Way” limns the difficult nature of legacy and inheritance when a patriarch tries to settle the affairs of his farm before his death. Exquisitely written and bursting with sharply observed detail, Kahakauwila’s stories remind us of the powerful desire to belong, to put down roots, and to have a place to call home.
