Download or read book Wrestling with Alligators, Prophets, and Theologians written by C. Peter Wagner and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past half-century, C. Peter Wagner has been at the leading edge of the key spiritual paradigm shifts that have been accompanied by major moves of the Holy Spirit. In the 1960s the missionary movement in South America was at its peak--and Dr. Wagner was there. In the 1970s he was a recognized authority in the church-growth movement. In the 1980s he taught a popular course at Fuller Seminary with Vineyard movement leader John Wimber that advocated praying healing for the sick, spiritual mapping, identificational repentance and spiritual warfare. Dr. Wagner coined the phrase Third Wave to describe this fresh move of the Holy Spirit--the impact of which is still being felt today. In the 1990s he became a leader of the New Apostolic Reformation, and in the new millennium he has championed the Dominion Mandate, adopting the Seven Mountain (or 7M) template for reclaiming the culture for God's kingdom. For five decades, Dr. Wagner has led the church from one great move of God to the next, riding the wave of the Spirit through changes he never imagined when he first answered God's call to ministry. In Wrestling with Alligators, Prophets, and Theologians, Wagner tells, for the first time, his personal story of ongoing transformation. Readers will get a close-up view of the seismic shifts in the church's recent history, through the eyes of one of the only people to have seen it all unfold.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you knew you were going to wrestle an alligator in the future, you would do everything in your power to prepare, right? You'd read books on the subject and study the techniques of the most successful alligator wrestlers. And you would most certainly hire an alligator wrestler coach, one who had personally wrestled many a gator. Alligator wrestling is a most challenging undertaking; trial and error won't cut it in that profession. Well, guess what? Creating a successful life is a far more challenging undertaking. Most folks don't study it in depth, and as a result, they rely on the unpredictable effect of trial and error. At best, taking this path may occasionally lead to pretty good success. Most often, however, it leads to settling for a life that is far below a person's hopes, dreams, and potential. People taking this route often become uncomfortably complacent, a malady endured by the vast majority. I should know, I used to be a "Purdy Good Alligator Rassler"! And man, did I suffer as a result. Fortunately, my suffering has been over for many years. I now enjoy the life of my dreams. You can do the same, and this book will show you the way. If you're only a Purdy Good Alligator Rassler, or even a lousy one, this book will guide you through the treacherous alligator-laden swamps. When you inevitably encounter a gator, you'll know precisely how to wrestle him (or her) successfully. Importantly, you'll learn precisely how to avoid most gators, be they people or difficult circumstances. It will be my honor to train you in the fine art of Alligator wrestling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Librarians often say that every book is not for every child, but The True Blue Scouts of Sugar Man Swamp is” (The New York Times). Meet Bingo and J’miah, raccoon brothers on a mission to save Sugar Man Swamp in this rollicking tale and National Book Award Finalist from Newbery Honoree Kathi Appelt. Raccoon brothers Bingo and J’miah are the newest recruits of the Official Sugar Man Swamp Scouts. The opportunity to serve the Sugar Man—the massive creature who delights in delicious sugar cane and magnanimously rules over the swamp—is an honor, and also a big responsibility, since the rest of the swamp critters rely heavily on the intel of these hardworking Scouts. Twelve-year-old Chap Brayburn is not a member of any such organization. But he loves the swamp something fierce, and he’ll do anything to help protect it. And help is surely needed, because world-class alligator wrestler Jaeger Stitch wants to turn Sugar Man swamp into an Alligator World Wrestling Arena and Theme Park, and the troubles don’t end there. There is also a gang of wild feral hogs on the march, headed straight toward them all. The Scouts are ready. All they have to do is wake up the Sugar Man. Problem is, no one’s been able to wake that fellow up in a decade or four… Newbery Honoree and Kathi Appelt’s story of care and conservation has received five starred reviews, was selected as a National Book Award finalist, and is funny as all get out and ripe for reading aloud.

That’s achieving five dollars in revenue for every dollar spent on marketing, advertising, sales, and any other growth expenses—a goal he himself has achieved and exceeded. By coaching clients on the sixteen pitfalls faced by all startups, he has promoted entrepreneurship development in multiple industries, sharpened skills, and revealed the keys to superior, next-level growth.

Book excerpt: Find out what happens when fed-up citizens turn an engineer loose on the political swampThe beginning of this century marked the "Lost Decade" for Michigan. More than a half million people fled the state, decreasing her Electoral College votes from eighteen to sixteen.Career politicians in both parties are clenching their gator-like jaws tighter and tighter on hard-working Michiganders.

Echoing the president's battle cry, Colbeck's strategy is to drain the swamp and rid Michigan of her entrenched "alligators."Michigan is on the verge of making a dramatic comeback. Colbeck's strategy for returning the power to "We the People" is well on its way! In Wrestling Alligators, you will learn¿How government really works.¿How good people are seduced by the political swamp.¿What happens when one attempts to drain the swamp.¿How we can restore our faith in government.

Download or read book America's Alligator written by Doug Alderson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People have long been fascinated by the American alligator. Ever since humans arrived on the continent more than 15,000 years ago, the American alligator has been both feared and revered, celebrated and scorned, and often hunted for food and hide. Once tourism began to take hold in the South as a real industry, especially in Florida, the alligator took on iconic and even mythical status. “One of the most picturesque features of Florida has always been that uncouth and fierce-looking reptile called the alligator,” wrote Nevin O. Winter in 1918. “Everybody who comes down here to the peninsula has an ambition to see one in the wild.” Seminole Indians wrestled alligators for show. Alligator souvenirs and mascots often took what people feared—a sharp-toothed predator—and made it into something cute and cuddly. Alligator-themed songs were recorded and released, including “See You Later Alligator” by Bill Haley and His Comets. Hollywood into created alligator-themed movies such as Alligator People. Alligators were also reportedly kept in the White House under two presidencies. And perhaps the most unusual alligator story was one that helped to nab Ma Barker and her son Fred when they were hiding out along Florida’s Lake Weir. America’s Alligator examines the colorful and sometimes conflicted relationship our species has had with Alligator mississippiensis. Doug Alderson explores the country’s rich alligator mythology and how it inspired various forms of art, stories, photography, tourism and even humor.

Download or read book From Meaning to Desire written by Douglas Uzzell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The path From Meaning to Desire draws its characters through nine stories, eight set in 1960, along the Red River, from Shreveport to Natchitoches in western Louisiana, to the last in South Vietnam in 1967. The book opens on Lillian Stallings. Shy, missing her deceased father, and at 38 adjusting to premature grandparenthood, she finds her life dismayingly similar to her mother's -- unfulfilled, unengaged, and short on meaning. When she and her husband are traveling to their first visit to see their grandchild, Lillian is traumatized by Lou, the book's other protagonist, who owns a caf and motel near Shreveport. Following the trauma, the visit to the daughter's home goes even worse than feared: Lillian's distress overflows and she flees, fearing that her husband Gerald and their daughter will have her committed to a mental institution. Louis Fontinot, carnival prize fighter, speakeasy bouncer, World War I veteran, and sometimes wrestler of alligators, is also a closet devourer of high quality fiction, a self-identified "counterfeit" Cajun, and the benevolent patriarch of an extended family of siblings, their families, and the children of his cook and her partner. Especially close are his sister, Marie Lynn -- a librarian who shares Lou's love of literature -- and her son, Marlow, in whom Lou finds a kind of alter ego. Plot and characters emerge from the risks, fears, passions, and complexities of local culture, segregation, civil rights, the Klan, family dynamics, and the emerging love story of Lou and Lillian. The ninth story is a counter spin on the first eight.
