Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of Never Let Me Go and the Booker Prize–winning novel The Remains of the Day comes a luminous meditation on the act of forgetting and the power of memory. In post-Arthurian Britain, the wars that once raged between the Saxons and the Britons have finally ceased. Axl and Beatrice, an elderly British couple, set off to visit their son, whom they haven't seen in years. And, because a strange mist has caused mass amnesia throughout the land, they can scarcely remember anything about him. As they are joined on their journey by a Saxon warrior, his orphan charge, and an illustrious knight, Axl and Beatrice slowly begin to remember the dark and troubled past they all share. By turns savage, suspenseful, and intensely moving, The Buried Giant is a luminous meditation on the act of forgetting and the power of memory.

Download or read book When the Giant Lies Down written by Dick Foth and published by Chariot Victor Publishing. This book was released on 1995 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us do not see strong and effective leadership as primarily vulnerable and humble. But that's exactly the kind of leadership we saw in Bethlehem, when the Giant laid down. It is because of that sacrifice of self that we, as a people of God, can relate to and follow our Leader as never before. One of the most delightful books I have read in a long time.--Joseph Girzone.

Download or read book Smooth Stones written by Joe Coffey and published by Cruciform Press. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Street-level apologetics for everyday Christians. This book was written for two reasons: First, too many people think believing in Christianity means blind faith, against all evidence, the way a child believes in Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy. Nothing could be further from the truth. Second, every few years a new book intended to undermine Christianity becomes a best seller and shakes the faith of many. Yet the arguments in these books are rarely compelling. Jesus likened faith in God to a house built on a foundation. If built on sand, storms of doubt will tear the house apart. But if we build on a solid foundation, we will stand. In these pages, Joe Coffey inspects our foundation -- so we can know why we believe, and so we can speak of our faith to others with greater confidence and clarity. The conclusion? The Christian faith is built on a tremendous amount of credible evidence. You don't need to be a scientist, an historian, an archeologist, or a philosopher to understand why belief in Jesus makes perfect sense. Think of the last time an unbeliever asked you a seemingly unanswerable question as a way of supporting their unbelief. Did you feel thwarted in your attempt to "give an account for the hope that is in you"? Smooth Stones answers six of the toughest of these questions: How do you know God exists? How can you be sure the Bible is authentic and true? If God exists, why is there evil and suffering? Doesn't science disprove the Bible? Aren't all religions the same? How can you be sure the claims of Christ are true? Joe Coffey writes in a style that is clear, winsome, and compelling. Smooth Stones will equip you with answers to some of the toughest apologetics questions a Christian can face. There is plenty of evidence to support the claims of Christianity. Smooth Stones puts much of that evidence at your fingertips and offers practical guidelines for how to unpack it in ways that are "gentle and reverent."

Book excerpt: Unleash Your Giant & Step into Your Greatness is a leadership book for entrepreneur women designed to help you shake loose your shrinking thinking and uncover the magnificent being you were made to be. As entrepreneur women, we are each presented with a continuous stream of moments in life, in which we exercise choices. The choices we make can either lead to self-defeating behaviors or to behaviors that affirm and honor our lives. Over time, depending on the mix of our choices, we are either headed for breakdowns or breakthroughs. Our power is in how we choose to lead ourselves within the breakdown or the breakthrough and in order to lead in business, we must be clear on the leadership we provide to ourselves. Not believing in your greatness, especially when faced with challenges stunts your growth. You can be a leader in place as long as you're committed to continual growth in your mindset, your language and an understanding of self. But what happens when you stop growing or you stop believing in your greatness, especially when faced with challenges? As women, we tend to play small and that stops us from growing in the way we need to in order to honor leadership roles. Almost every entrepreneur worries about the fear of failure, not feeling good enough and can even suffer from imposter syndrome at some point in their business journey. In this book and workbook, you will discover tools to help you tap into your growth mindset so those big, beautiful dreams you have can come into fruition. You are amazing, but when it comes to receiving your blessings, you find yourself stretched thin by trying to stay in your comfort zone. So it’s time to get out of your comfort zone to rid yourself of limitations that hold you back from harnessing your power. So join us on this journey to equip you with the tools and techniques that will lead to exposing and resolving any self-limiting beliefs, fears or actions that keep you from reaching personal greatness.

Book excerpt: An "engaging, humorous... and compelling story" of one couple's unexpected life with the "runt of the litter" puppy who grew to be the largest dog... ever (Publisher's Weekly). With his big blue eyes and soulful expression, George was the irresistible runt of the litter. But Dave and Christie Nasser's "baby" ended up being almost five feet tall, seven feet long, and 245 pounds. Eager to play, and boisterous to the point of causing chaos, this big Great Dane was scared of water, scared of dogs a fraction of his size and, most of all, scared of being alone. Giant George is the charming story of how this precocious puppy won Dave and Christie's hearts and along the way became a doggie superstar. In 2010, George was named by Guinness World Records as the Tallest Dog in the World-ever. He appeared on Oprah, and even has his own global fan club. But to Dave and Christie, this extraordinary animal is still their beloved pet, the one who has made them laugh, made them cry, and continues to make them incredibly happy.

Download or read book TLV Personal Size Giant Print Reference Bible Holy Scriptures written by and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 3028 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biblical books were written to Jews, for Jews, and about Jews, yet most Bible translations do not maintain a connection to the Jewish essence of the Bible. The TLV speaks with a decidedly Jewish voice to recover the authentic context of the Bible and the Christian faith, retaining the Jewish order of the Old Testament books, the Jewish name of the Messiah, reverence for the four-letter unspoken name of God, and many Hebrew transliterated terms, such as shalom, shofar, and shabbat. The result is a translation that is accurate, readable, reverential, and true to the Hebrew roots of the Christian faith. The TLV Personal Size Giant Print Reference Bible offers readers powerful features in a convenient size and readable 12.5-point type, including - introductions to each book of the Bible and the major sections of Scripture - a glossary with key Scripture references - cross references for studying biblical topics - an extensive concordance for finding familiar passages, doing word studies, and following biblical themes - Jewish blessings and benedictions: Hear O Israel, And You Shall Love, Tree of Life Declaration, Aaronic Benediction, Messiah's Prayer, Welcoming the Sabbath - Parashat weekly Torah readings - maps of Israel - and much more
