Book Synopsis Flights of Faith by : Frederick Doe & Naa Lamile Adade
Download or read book Flights of Faith written by Frederick Doe & Naa Lamile Adade and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flights of Faith is the autobiography of a Christian airline pilot who shares his experiences during his career as an airline pilot and as a reverend minister, and where he encourages others to commit their ways to the Lord. This book talks about the experiences of Rev. Capt (retired) Emmanuel Odoi Woolley, who in the skies of the unseen trusted God in all his aerial journeys. There were rough times where he trusted God, and there were joyful moments as well--especially his last flight after forty-plus years of flying safely around the world. In all this he did not see himself as having achieved something by his own feat, but instead by the grace of God. Others never had it this way. "The lesson in this book echoes the prophet Micah's exhortation in Micah 6:8: He has told you, O man, what is good, and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and walk humbly with your God. (ESV)" - Rev. Samuel Kofi Osabutey
Book Synopsis Flight of Faith by : Frederick Berretta
Download or read book Flight of Faith written by Frederick Berretta and published by TAN Books. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plunged into the icy waters of the Hudson...God spared Frederick Berretta's life in an instant -- and changed his heart forever. Frederick Berretta was an amateur pilot himself, so when U.S. Airways Flight 1549 struck a flock of geese and lost both engines, minutes after takeoff from Laguardia Airport on that fateful afternoon of January 15, 2009, he knew before most of his fellow passengers that something was seriously wrong. As the roar of the jets quieted and the aircraft ceased to climb, as the pilot guided the powerless plane towards a desperate crash landing and announced, "Brace for impact," Berretta fingered the prayer book in his pocket and tried to prepare himself for death. A multitude of thoughts flooded his mind all at once. He reminded himself that the odds of surviving a water landing were slim to none. He thought of his wife and his four children, and how they would miss him. He remembered he had just been to confession and to Mass, and he wondered if his soul would be ready to meet the Lord. And he knew he had to pray. "God, please be merciful to us, for the sake of your Son," he whispered. "Please spare us. I trust in you. Jesus, I trust in you. Mother of God, please pray for us." At that very instant, Berretta felt a "push" or "nudge" on his conscience; a state of awareness he'd never before experienced; and a keen realization that he had to do something. But what? Then God's voice sounded strong and clear in the depths of his soul: Are you going to accept My will for your life? For Frederick Berretta, the events of that fateful January day were the crystallizing moment of a lifetime of conversion. This story tells how he lost his childhood faith and as a young adult embraced a selfish, worldly life, how he suffered through family turmoil and the death of a child, and how by God's grace he slowly returned to the Church, humbled and grateful. God used the "Miracle on the Hudson" to confirm him in his faith and set him on fire to share it with others. Flight of Faith is the inspiring true story of how God works in our lives in simple and extraordinary ways. Read more at the Flight of Faith website.
Book Synopsis Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith by : Cindy Dell Clark
Download or read book Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith written by Cindy Dell Clark and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the mysteries and myths of Christmas and Easter, families balance the values of receiving and giving, of growth and sacrifice. Each aspect of the Santa myth, from his slide down a chimney to his big red suit, plays a part in a child's imagination. Through their offerings of milk and cookies and their letter writing, children bring their relationship to Santa into developing attitudes toward giving and receiving gifts. The Easter Bunny story, with its ritual egg hunt and baskets of brightly colored candy, is explored in terms of life and its possibility of growth. In these examples, Clark shows how children play an active role in constructing family rituals and cultural reality, since their willingness to make the stories their own helps to renew the traditions.

Book Synopsis Miracle on the Hudson by : Fred Berretta
Download or read book Miracle on the Hudson written by Fred Berretta and published by . This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The wheels lifted off runway 4 and I heard the familiar sound of the landing gear retracting, followed by the slight feel of them tucking themselves into the wings. The takeoff felt smooth and perfect, and I reclined my seat just slightly to make a little more room to adjust to the confinement of a coach window seat. "Then I heard a noise I had never experienced before on a plane. It was like a thud of something impacting the fuselage somewhere, but exactly what it was or where it hit, I could not discern. Within an instant, I was jolted out of my quiet, personal sojourn by a loud explosion. I heard it come from the left, but it also seemed to be everywhere at the same time. The plane shook violently from side to side, and then settled back to normal. 3:27:32 New York TRACON: "cactus fifteen forty nine turn left heading two seven zero" 3:27:36 Captain Sullenberger: 'ah this is uh cactus fifteen thirty nine hit birds we lost thrust in both engines we're turning back towards Laguardia'". Whether you are an aspiring Christian, Jew or Muslim, regardless of race or creed, I pray some part of this story may kindle a greater sense of hope in you toward man, and invite you to a deeper trust in the mercy of God. If you have found it hard to believe in a benevolent, loving Creator, then maybe you will find this a heartfelt opportunity to reconsider.

What others are saying: A harrowing near-crash at a remote airstrip, a deep-jungle rescue mission, a jaguar attack, spiritual warfare, terrorist attack, a mass evacuation in the face of a militant uprising. Who says being a missionary is boring?!? JUNGLE FLIGHT is a compilation of real stories about ordinary people doing extraordinary things in service to God. I couldn't put it down. Read it for heart-soaring adventure as well as soul-stirring inspiration. Professor and Pastor, Dr. Max Anders, author of 30 Days to Understanding the Bible After 40 years of serving the US space program, I find myself awed by what the men and women of JAARS have done to impact the global ministry of Bible translation. What they do each day requires more than just being made of the right stuff: it takes extraordinary faith in the One who created the mountains they fly over, the people they serve, the One who's guiding their flight from start to finish. Tom Overton, Multiflow Integration Manager, PH-O Kennedy Space Center, FL Dane Skelton is a pastor, an aviation nut, a motorcyclist, and is interested in anything that rolls, floats or flies.

Download or read book Brief Flights written by Frederic Alling and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transcendent experiences have been extensively written about, from a psychological perspective by Freud, William James, Maslow and others. However in recent years, advances in identifying a "self-transcendent" personality trait, a "God Gene" and some of the neurochemical brain activities which occur during transcendent states, have opened up a new depth of understanding about this inside dimension of transcendent phenomena. They also offer science's newest challenge to traditional religious experience and belief. In this book transcendent experiences are described by those in a variety of arenas, including traditional religious practices, close encounters with death and other natural phenomena, creativity and the arts, competitive sports, romantic love, and other areas. Those interested in religion and science, as well many general readers, may come to recognize experiences of their own, which they may not have considered religious or transcendent. They may also find comfort from developing a stronger and deeper foundation for their religious beliefs.
