Book excerpt: This book will take you from 'Sunday Christian' to being a vital member of the body of Christ in your local Church, understanding why you are who you are, and Who for. Matthew started writing this book, not after he'd been in the ministry for twenty years or more, nor after he'd built a 'mega-Church'. He hadn't even started Bible college yet! He began writing this book less than a year after becoming a Christian, so he literally takes you with him, from discovering the difference between how and why things are as they are, all the way to clearly hearing the voice of God and effectively standing up against the devil and his drones, in your life. When the idea was introduced to Matthew, that Christians can actually hear the voice of God, they didn't tell him that most people don't, or that it's a rare occurrence. At least not until the prophetic was already flowing, and by then it was too late to squeeze him into the box so many accept. So as a new Christian, with the child like faith that Jesus requested for salvation, Matthew decided early on that if God is who He says He is, and you have a question, what's stopping Him from answering you? The Bible says; You have not because you ask not. So he asked and he asked and he asked some more. Why Would You Read This Book? I'm just like you, no more, no less. I believe God is raising up His people. Any of His people, to finish the work He started and left us with, two thousand years ago. I've written this book to show you that God can and will use anyone who is ready and everyone who is willing. Don't read this book because you know who I am (nobody knows who I am), read this book because you want to know what God has to say, directly to you!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Erica Bauermeister, the national bestselling author of The School of Essential Ingredients, presents a moving and evocative coming-of-age novel about childhood stories, families lost and found, and how a fragrance conjures memories capable of shaping the course of our lives. Emmeline lives an enchanted childhood on a remote island with her father, who teaches her about the natural world through her senses. What he won’t explain are the mysterious scents stored in the drawers that line the walls of their cabin, or the origin of the machine that creates them. As Emmeline grows, however, so too does her curiosity, until one day the unforeseen happens, and Emmeline is vaulted out into the real world--a place of love, betrayal, ambition, and revenge. To understand her past, Emmeline must unlock the clues to her identity, a quest that challenges the limits of her heart and imagination. Lyrical and immersive, The Scent Keeper explores the provocative beauty of scent, the way it can reveal hidden truths, lead us to the person we seek, and even help us find our way back home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negro Hebrew Heritage and Enslavement By: Anthony J. Vance HAIL ALL YISRA’EL: THE AWAKENING OF THE HEBREW YISRA’ELITE IS AT HAND. Yehuwdah (Judah): the Negros; and Yisra’el: the Haitians, West Indians, Dominicans, Guatemalans to Panama, Puerto Ricans, Cubans, North American Indians, Seminole Indians, Colombia to Uruguay, Argentina to Chile, and Mexicans: THE TWELVE TRIBES OF YISRA’EL. It is time out for expecting anyone, anywhere, to do anything to help us out of our BONDAGE and OPPRESSION. The system we have been detained in for nearly 400 years is not the system that will set us at LIBERTY; our FREEDOM Yisra’el comes from the Most High. The system that teaches you THEIR HISTORY of WHITE SUPREMACY RACISM is not the system that will TEACH YOU HEBREW YISRA’ELITE HISTORY: PROSCRIBED EDUCATION has kept them in power and riches and has kept us powerless and poor. We, the Hebrew Yisra’elites, must teach our own children, in our own schools, and raise them up according to TORAH; if not, our children will continue to be incarcerated and used as FREE LABOR for the OLIGARCHS and the PLUTOCRATS. We must write our own BOOKS, using our own style of writing and language, not writing according to the dictates of an exclusionary system of INJUSTICE, a system steeped in HATRED. YISRA’EL, it is time to WAKE UP and realize who we are, and to WHOM we belong: we are the children of Abraham, Yitzhaq (Isaac), and Ya’aqov (Jacob). Shalom and Ahmein.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in mass market, Mary Higgins Clark’s thirtieth and most spine-chilling novel—“so good that it might as well have come with a soundtrack” (The Columbus Dispatch)—includes identity theft, revenge, and murder... Alexandra “Zan” Moreland, a gifted, beautiful interior designer on the verge of a successful Manhattan career, is terrified to discover that somebody is not only using her credit cards, but may also be impersonating her in a scheme that involves the much more brutal crimes of kidnapping and murder. Already haunted by the disappearance of her own son, Matthew, kidnapped in broad daylight two years ago in Central Park, Zan has been left torn between hope and despair. Now, on what would be Matthew's fifth birthday, photos surface that seem to show Zan kidnapping her own child, followed by a chain of events that suggests somebody has stolen her identity. Hounded by the press, under investigation by the police, attacked by both her angry ex-husband and a vindictive business rival, Zan, wracked by fear and pain and sustained only by her belief that Matthew is still alive, sets out to discover who is behind this cruel hoax. What she does not realize is that with every step she takes toward the truth, she is putting herself—and those she loves most—in mortal danger from the person who has ingeniously plotted out her destruction.

Download or read book Oh the Glory of It All written by Sean Wilsey and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-04-25 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[An] irreverent and remarkably candid memoir about growing up in wealthy eighties San Francisco . . . rollicking, ruthless . . . ultimately generous-hearted.” —Vogue “A vivid mix of brio, self-awareness and sophistication . . . writing well is indeed the best revenge.” —The New York Times Book Review “A monumental piece of work.” —Kirkus Reviews “In the beginning we were happy. And we were always excessive. So in the beginning we were happy to excess.” With these opening lines Sean Wilsey takes us on an exhilarating tour of life in the strangest, wealthiest, and most grandiose of families. Sean's blond-bombshell mother (one of the thinly veiled characters in Armistead Maupin's bestselling Tales of the City) is a 1980s society-page staple, regularly entertaining Black Panthers and movie stars in her marble and glass penthouse, "eight hundred feet in the air above San Francisco; an apartment at the top of a building at the top of a hill: full of light, full of voices, full of windows full of water and bridges and hills." His enigmatic father uses a jet helicopter to drop Sean off at the video arcade and lectures his son on proper hygiene in public restrooms, "You should wash your hands first, before you use the urinal. Not after. Your penis isn't dirty. But your hands are." When Sean, "the kind of child who sings songs to sick flowers," turns nine years old, his father divorces his mother and marries her best friend. Sean's life blows apart. His mother first invites him to commit suicide with her, then has a "vision" of salvation that requires packing her Louis Vuitton luggage and traveling the globe, a retinue of multiracial children in tow. Her goal: peace on earth (and a Nobel Prize). Sean meets Indira Gandhi, Helmut Kohl, Menachem Begin, and the pope, hoping each one might come back to San Francisco and persuade his father to rejoin the family. Instead, Sean is pushed out of San Francisco and sent spiraling through five high schools, till he finally lands at an unorthodox reform school cum "therapeutic community," in Italy. With its multiplicity of settings and kaleidoscopic mix of preoccupations-sex, Russia, jet helicopters, seismic upheaval, boarding schools, Middle Earth, skinheads, home improvement, suicide, skateboarding, Sovietology, public transportation, massage, Christian fundamentalism, dogs, Texas, global thermonuclear war, truth, evil, masturbation, hope, Bethlehem, CT, eventual salvation (abridged list)—Oh the Glory of It All is memoir as bildungsroman as explosion.
