Download or read book Bandit Roads written by Richard Grant and published by Abacus. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many ways to die in the Sierra Madre, a notorious nine-hundred-mile mountain range in northern Mexico where AK-47s are fetish objects, the law is almost non-existent and power lies in the hands of brutal drug mafias. Thousands of tons of opium and marijuana are produced there every year. Richard Grant thought it would be a good idea to travel the length of the Sierra Madre and write a book about it. He was warned before he left that he would be killed. But driven by what he calls 'an unfortunate fascination' for this mysterious region, Grant sets off anyway. In a remarkable piece of investigative writing, he evokes a sinister, surreal landscape of lonely mesas, canyons sometimes deeper than the Grand Canyon, hostile villages and an outlaw culture where homicide is the most common cause of death and grandmothers sell cocaine. Finally his luck runs out and he finds himself fleeing for his life, pursued by men who would murder a stranger in their territory 'to please the trigger finger'.

Download or read book A Stranger in the House of God written by John Koessler and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-08-30 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up the son of agnostics, John Koessler saw a Catholic church on one end of the street and a Baptist on the other. In the no-man’s land between the two, this curious outside wondered about the God they worshipped—and began a lifelong search to comprehend the grace and mystery of God. A Stranger in the House of God addresses fundamental questions and struggles faced by spiritual seekers and mature believers. Like a contemporary Pilgrim’s Progress, it traces the author’s journey and explores his experiences with both charismatic and evangelical Christianity. It also describes his transformation from religious outsider to ordained pastor. John Koessler provides a poignant and often humorous window into the interior of the soul as he describes his journey from doubt and struggle with the church to personal faith

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER What do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, his lack of intervention hurtful, and his promises doubtful? Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances, inviting you to live assured when life doesn't turn out like you expected. Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a season, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned at best and overwhelmed and hopeless at worst. We quietly start to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness and why he allows us to suffer and experience grief and loss. Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But after many tears, godly counseling, and prayerful seeking, she's also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to: Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations. Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy, so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes. Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle. Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us. Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God's truth, the Bible. Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa: Good Boundaries and Goodbyes Forgiving What You Can't Forget Uninvited You're Going to Make It Embraced Seeing Beautiful Again

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.

Book Synopsis Heavenly Holy Hell by : Yvonne Annette Curtis
Download or read book Heavenly Holy Hell written by Yvonne Annette Curtis and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2024-06-30 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heaven is just as much part of earth as Hell is. Heaven wasn't always peaceful and Hell never will be at peace. Hell and Heaven is part of life as we journey through it daily as we face our trials and tribulations. Life is what you make of it, but it is what it is. Heaven is real and so is Hell. Despite what goodness lies ahead, evil always presents itself within. There is a God, despite what many believe. There is always a higher being above- spiritual, but mysterious. Mankind didn't make the world; they're just made to help keep the world going. Many don't believe in a God, but all believes there is a devil. But many people despite their belief, find themselves calling on God in situations; where those who believes knows who God is and what he can do. But through everything, it matters how you choose to live your life and treat people. We're here for one another to love, help, and respect in a way we would want for ourselves. We are not here just to live a life; we are all here for a purpose. We were created out of love and without our choice, God chose our families, our gender, our skin tone as he saw fit. God didn't make us to be superior or inferior over others because of our gender, our skin tone, or because we have or have not. Money and power can't give you the peace of mind, the happiness you deserve, nor the love you desire because the more you get, the more you want. But prayer is powerful and so is faith. In this life the good goes with the bad. We can't live this life alone not needing somebody at some time or another. You're not liable for how people treat you, but you are held responsible for how you treat them. Forgiveness and reconciliation is deep and can be a burden uplifted. It pays to live life at your best doing what's right than living with regrets. We reap what kind of life we sow and what goes around comes around both the good and the bad. Jesus was once a kid and did kid things until he reached adulthood, he put childish things behind. And God like any real father, don't want to see their kid suffering or hurt as he saw the people mistreat his son on earth. But God being a compassionate, forgiving, and loving God accepted his son plea to help bring mankind back to him at whatever it took. Jesus loved us so much despite our attitude and behavior that he gave up a peaceful life in heaven to come to a condemn world to save us from being destroyed. Satan always envied Jesus, but he knew Jesus didn't deserve to be mistreated although him himself tried tempting him as he has done to mankind and the angels in heaven. Jesus took the abuse, tolerated the lies, bears the cross, and dies out of love for us. Satan is desperate for power and control that he only can gain through the people sinful ways. Satan would go through any attempt to get people to give him their soul through lies and temptation. Although, Satan preys on the weak and vulnerable. He doesn't make anyone do anything, he just makes bad look good, and revenge looks rewarding. He knows how to manipulate and deceive you. He uses your mistakes and past of secrets against you. But through all and in the end good always wins one way or another. This book is about life and the things we go through. It tells you there's nothing new under the sun even through the different eras of time. Most of all it tells you that God is and will always be, and that he says what he means and means what he says.

Book excerpt: In this “powerful and frightening” British thriller, two estranged sisters confront a crime that exposes the nightmares that lurk at the edges of domesticity (Irish Independent). On a picture-perfect morning in Bath, England, a teenage girl’s body is found on the towpath of a canal. Police detective Zoe Benedict is convinced the department head should look beyond the usual domestic motives to solve the brutal murder case. But no one wants to hear any far-fetched ideas from the department’s black sheep. Meanwhile, Zoe’s sister, Sally, has started working as a housekeeper for a wealthy entrepreneur whose eccentricities are beginning to seem increasingly repugnant, and possibly dangerous. As Zoe digs into the case and Sally’s suspicions grow, all signs point to one conclusion: There’s something very wrong at the house on Hanging Hill. “A chiller to the very end. Hayder deals with Britain at its grittiest.” —Peter Millar, The Times (London) “Mo Hayder has crafted a powerful and frightening thriller that grips the reader from page one to the blood-freezing shock of the final page.

Book Synopsis Lord I'm Coming Home by : John Forrest
Download or read book Lord I'm Coming Home written by John Forrest and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord I'm Coming Home focuses on a small, white, rural fishing community on the southern reaches of the Great Dismal Swamp in North Carolina. By means of a new kind of anthropological fieldwork, John Forrest seeks to document the entire aesthetic experience of a group of people, showing the aesthetic to be an "everyday experience and not some rarefied and pure behavior reserved for an artistic elite." The opening chapter of the book is a vivid fictional narrative of a typical day in "Tidewater," presented from the perspective of one fisherman. In the following two chapters the author sets forth the philosophical and anthropological foundations of his book, paying particular attention to problems of defining "aesthetic," to methodological concerns, and to the natural landscape of his field site. Reviewing his own experience as both participant and observer, he then describes in scrupulous detail the aesthetic forms in four areas of Tidewater life: home, work, church, and leisure. People use these forms, Forrest shows, to establish personal and group identities, facilitate certain kinds of interactions while inhibiting others, and cue appropriate behavior. His concluding chapter deals with the different life cycles of men and women, insider-outsider relations, secular and sacred domains, the image and metaphor of "home," and the essential role that aesthetics plays in these spheres. The first ethnography to evoke the full aesthetic life of a community, Lord I'm Coming Home will be important reading not only for anthropologists but also for scholars and students in the fields of American studies, art, folklore, and sociology.
