Book Synopsis High Seas and Still Waters by : Matthew R Nieman
Download or read book High Seas and Still Waters written by Matthew R Nieman and published by . This book was released on 2019-12 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These sermons were culled from the hundreds of sermons I preached over a fifteen-year period at the two churches I have most recently served: First Presbyterian Church in Bellevue, Nebraska, and Farragut Presbyterian Church in Farragut, Tennessee. Both congregations entrusted me with privilege of leading them in worship each week and allowed me to preach with an overarching emphasis on the power and blessing of God's grace and our opportunity and responsibility to respond with joy and service. The sermons included here are based on scripture texts from the Revised Common Lectionary and follow the liturgical year, beginning in Advent. It is my hope that they reveal the willingness and eagerness God has to love and care for us, so that the high seas we often face may become still waters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Much fresh material . . . an excellent historical narrative of the events leading up to the Great Scuttle, the terrible day itself and its aftermath.” —Warships: International Fleet Review On June 21, 1919, the ships of the German High Seas Fleet—interned at Scapa Flow since the Armistice—began to founder, taking their British custodians completely by surprise. In breach of agreed terms, the fleet dramatically scuttled itself, in a well-planned operation that consigned nearly half a million tons, and 54 of 72 ships, to the bottom of the sheltered anchorage in a gesture of Wagnerian proportions. This much is well-known, but more than a century after the “Grand Scuttle” many questions remain. Was von Reuter, the fleet’s commander, acting under orders or was it his own initiative? Why was June 21 chosen? Did the British connive in or even encourage the action? Could more have been done to save the ships? Was it legally justified? And what were the international ramifications? This new book analyzes all these issues, beginning with the fleet mutiny in the last months of the war that precipitated a social revolution in Germany and the eventual collapse of the will to fight. The Armistice terms imposed the humiliation of virtual surrender on the High Seas Fleet, and the conditions under which it was interned are described in detail. Meanwhile the victorious Allies wrangled over the fate of the ships, an issue that threatened the whole peace process. Using much new material from German sources and a host of eyewitness testimonies, the circumstances of the scuttling itself are meticulously reconstructed, while the aftermath for all parties is clearly laid out. The story concludes with “the biggest salvage operation in history” and a chapter on the significance of the scuttling to the postwar balance of naval power. This is an important reassessment of the last great action of the First World War.

Download or read book Pech Souleila written by Falakpema and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the green knight who defended Tyre against the besieging army of Saladin is bequeathed to us as a remarkable feat of chivalrous tradition. Sidi Kafir resuscitates this historical legend by making him the last pagan Viking caught up in the turmoil of the Crusades. As a vagrant adventurer looking for new horizons, Ulysses's nordic son is on a personal odyssey in search of love and knightly prowess. Its lessons are so relevant today: the clash of civilisations,' alike the original Crusades, tears asunder the harmony amongst peoples by its sterile, warlike confrontation that knows no issue other than mutual distrust and destruction, instead of convivencia, cooperation and mutual respect. The medieval age saw the rebirth of international trade, as during the Roman age, along the silk and spice routes linking the Orient to the Occident. This trade renaissance is a recurrent theme that now dominates the debate on globalisation. Its origins are examined here with the birth of Italian city republics, which created the monetary system at Venice, then the manufacturing base in Tuscany in the Renaissance age. The pursuit of happiness through growing grapevines, imported from Palestine to Europe in the form of the Chardonnay grape, is a legendary legacy to epicurean man.

Download or read book The Crossing written by Dane S. Egli and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-07-27 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God placed the exodus miracle prominently throughout the pages of Scripture to remind all mankind of his loving nature. He selected Moses to free his people from slavery and to record eyewitness details of the Red Sea Crossing, positioning this miraculous event at the core of His salvation message. The Crossing uncovers profound biblical and historical truths from the exodus that place us at the same shoreline of hope where the Hebrew nation faced what they believed was certain destruction at the hands of the Egyptian army. This event is a personal demonstration of God’s loving redemption, along with the birth, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Why does this event appear so often in Scripture? What are the lessons of the exodus that we can apply to our lives today? In answering these questions, this book places a unique focus on this decisive salvation moment. However, it was not just a salvation moment for Israel, but it was also a salvation moment for us—providing an ocean-crossing miracle for all generations to come. Although it occurred three thousand years ago, the exodus still speaks to us today. It is a story that invites us to trust God boldly and step into deep water. He can still create a new pathway on dry ground!

Book Synopsis High As the Waters Rise by : Anja Kampmann
Download or read book High As the Waters Rise written by Anja Kampmann and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This "gorgeously written" National Book Award finalist is a dazzling, heart-rending story of an oil rig worker whose closest friend goes missing, plunging him into isolation and forcing him to confront his past (NPR, One of the Best Books of the Year). One night aboard an oil drilling platform in the Atlantic, Waclaw returns to his cabin to find that his bunkmate and companion, Mátyás, has gone missing. A search of the rig confirms his fear that Mátyás has fallen into the sea. Grief-stricken, he embarks on an epic emotional and physical journey that takes him to Morocco, to Budapest and Mátyás's hometown in Hungary, to Malta, Italy, and finally to the mining town of his childhood in Germany. Waclaw's encounters along the way with other lost and yearning souls—Mátyás's angry, grieving half-sister; lonely rig workers on shore leave; a truck driver who watches the world change from his driver's seat—bring us closer to his origins while also revealing the problems of a globalized economy dependent on waning natural resources. High as the Waters Rise is a stirring exploration of male intimacy, the nature of memory and grief, and the cost of freedom—the story of a man who stands at the margins of a society from which he has profited little, though its functioning depends on his labor.
