Book excerpt: While growing up in the south in the mid-1900s, Linda Smock learned many phrases that were used to pass on wisdom. These colloquial sayings sometimes had roots in biblical principles, while others came from men such as Benjamin Franklin. Smock, a sinner saved by grace who desires to be a better disciple of Jesus, shares a collection of idioms used in daily conversations intended to help believers develop a closer relationship with God, to sense His guidance, and to see how he uses everyday events to help all of us grow in our walk with Him. Combined with biblical stories and principles that serve as guidance for living, Smock enhances the idioms with personal stories and provides examples from life on the farm as a child. Included are prayers created specifically to match each idiom. Homespun Devotion is a compilation of devotional idioms accompanied by scripture, prayers, and personal stories shared to help Christians live a better life while growing closer to God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond birthday parties, anniversaries, holidays, and holy days, there is the every day. And while the loss of the first tooth or the first day of school may seem like normal, ordinary occurrences, these authors show that even "just because" events are enough reason to celebrate the One who gives us life each day. There is spirituality behind all celebration. With more than 200 inventive ideas plus Christian inspiration, brief reflections, and biblical examples of everyday celebrations, the authors give concrete, practical, and tangible ways to bring that spirituality into everyday. Readers will be encouraged to create their own family traditions and bring faith to life by making home a place where Christ, family, and friendships can be celebrated openly and often-because life doesn't have to be ordinary.

Book excerpt: Christian living is like a quilt-multi-colored scraps of wisdom gleaned and assembled one stitch at a time. We learn as we go, as the common thread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is woven throughout the everyday moments, events, and situations we encounter. Only He can tie the pieces together and create something of beauty that will serve to warm the hearts of others and surround them with His grace. "Homespun Devotions: Volume One" begins a series of books that record the piecing together of many of the stories of my life and the rich spiritual truths God has imparted along the way. As you read these homespun narratives of family, love, marriage, motherhood, friendship, and the music that is such a part of my heritage, you will discover glimpses into moments of the soul-searching and intense struggles I have experienced while journeying to a place of complete surrender to the One who bled and died for me. I point you to no denomination, religious group, or sect-only to the foot of the cross of Jesus Christ, where redemption, restoration, healing, and peace still freely and lavishly flow. He loves you with a never-ending, unconditional love-I pray you embrace this truth afresh and with a deeper persuasion as you read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through attuned close readings, this volume brings out the imaginative and formal brilliance of Percy Bysshe Shelley's writing as it explores his involvement in processes of dialogue and influence. Shelley recognizes that poetic individuality is the reward of connectedness with other writers and cultural influences. 'A great Poem is a fountain forever overflowing with the waters of wisdom and delight', he writes, 'and after one person and one age has exhausted all its divine effluence which their peculiar relations enable them to share, another and yet another succeeds, and new relations are ever developed, the source of an unforeseen and an unconceived delight' (A Defence of Poetry). He is among the major Romantic poetic exponents and theorists of influence, because of his passionately intelligent commitment to the onward dissemination of ideas and feelings, and to the unpredictable ways in which poets position themselves and are culturally positioned between past and future. The book has a tripartite structure. The first three chapters seek to illuminate his response to representative texts, figures, and themes that constitute the triple pillars of his cultural inheritance: the classical world (Plato); Renaissance poetry (Spenser and Milton); Christianity and, in particular, the concept of deity and the Bible. The second and major section of the book explores Shelley's relations and affinities with, as well as differences from, his immediate predecessors and contemporaries: Hazlitt and Lamb; Wordsworth; Coleridge; Southey; Byron; Keats (including the influence of Dante on Shelley's elegy for his fellow Romantic) and the great painter J. M. W. Turner, with whom he is often linked. The third section considers Shelley's reception by later nineteenth-century writers, figures influenced by and responding to Shelley including Beddoes, Hemans, Landon, Tennyson, and Swinburne. A coda discusses the body of critical work on Shelley produced by A. C. Bradley, a figure who stands at the threshold of twentieth-century thinking about Shelley.

Book excerpt: "Already he had counted sixteen soldiers, ten beige-clad paratroopers sleeping under a big umbrella tree where there was some shade. On the taxi ride away from Brazzaville, along the dusty road where the plateau broke down to brown grassless hills, he had see maybe six soldiers marching wearily, looking sad-eyed and stoned on bungi, crazy from the canopy of unrelieved sun. Mostly he felt amazed and a little lucky to be in Africa, but just then he felt afraid, as if a little bubble of balance in the middle of his head had suddenly been tilted to one side, and the soldiers knew it." Set in Zaire and the Republic of Congo, The World Beat evokes modern Africa with a realism that few writers achieve. At loose ends, series hero Roberts takes an assignment from Lloyds of London to deliver ransom for Elyse Revelle, a Belgian mining company doctor who has been kidnapped, presumably be separatists or terrorists. Together with a Zairian employee of the company, Roberts undertakes an arduous river journey to make contact with the kidnappers at the doctor’s clinic in the jungle. This journey, with its sights, sounds, and smells of Africa, is both metaphor and actuality. Roberts falls seriously ill and the trip becomes a struggle to head off forces that are opposed to the mission, to find and pay off the kidnappers, and to elude death from disease or assassination. Like the novels of Graham Greene, The World Beat combines gripping action themes of political commitment, moral responsibility and human violence.

Some of the essays cover rather "conventional" manifestations in the world today; others demonstrate the fetishistic qualities of some unusual items. But all illustrate without any doubt that, like the icon, the ritual, and many other items in society, fetishes, fetishism and fetishists must be studied and understood before we can begin to understand the complexity of present-day society.

Book excerpt: These devotions were written by a Pastor to his congregation during the time of pandemic restrictions when sanctuary doors were closed to any desiring to worship or pray or just needing a spiritual boost.Aiming for encouragement, these short devotions are an uplifting and interesting source of inspiration. They certainly lived up to their intended purpose of creating a bridge between the pulpit and pew during a long and hurtful silence from the traditionally comfortable environment of the sanctuary. Their content is chock full of true-to-life illustrations. You'll find many of them written directly for your need.A variety of styles are used to convey Christian principles and truths in a very upbeat format--sometimes humorous, sometimes serious; intellectual without being stodgy; often country colloquial in portraying real-life stories; always focusing on revealing more of the Christ of Calvary.Got about five minutes? Read one of these devotions. But look out! You might find yourself hooked into reading more than one or two...or more!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objects of Devotion: Religion in Early America tells the story of religion in the United States through the material culture of diverse spiritual pursuits in the nation's colonial period and the early republic. The beautiful, full-color companion volume to a Smithsonian National Museum of American History exhibition, the book explores the wide range of religious traditions vying for adherents, acceptance, and a prominent place in the public square from the 1630s to the 1840s. The original thirteen states were home to approximately three thousand churches and more than a dozen Christian denominations, including Anglicans, Baptists, Catholics, Congregationalists, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians, and Quakers. A variety of other faiths also could be found, including Judaism, Islam, traditional African practices, and Native American beliefs. As a result, America became known throughout the world as a place where, in theory, if not always in practice, all are free to believe and worship as they choose. The featured objects include an 1814 Revere and Sons church bell from Salem, the Jefferson Bible, wampum beads, a 1654 Torah scroll brought to the New World, the only known religious text written by an enslaved African Muslim, and other revelatory artifacts. Together these treasures illustrate how religious ideas have shaped the country and how the treatment and practice of religion have changed over time. Objects of Devotion emphasizes how religion can be understood through the objects, both rare and everyday, around which Americans of every generation have organized their communities and built this nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Verity inveigles the new vicar into a sham engagement, their relationship isn’t the only thing that’s fake. . . . Verity Hayes has the soul of an artist — but her heart belongs to the Reverend Mr. Henry Crofton. She’s tried everything she can think of to prove how perfect they are for each other, but he barely seems to notice she’s alive. With her family of noted patriots about to be run out of town by invading British Regulars, Verity has only days to show Henry she’s the perfect woman for him. Even if it means sacrificing who she really is. Henry Crofton came to the colonies to try to reclaim those poor lost sheep who’d strayed from their king. He never anticipated finding the most beautiful creature he’d ever seen. Despite his attachments back home, he finds himself paying more and more attention to Miss Verity Hayes. When Miss Hayes needs rescuing from her family’s marriage machinations, Henry does the only right thing: he agrees to her proposal of a fake engagement. But Verity is hiding the truth: the family pressure, like her personality, is totally fabricated. Can she find the courage to come clean before he finds out the hard way?

Book excerpt: For years, my family and I struggled with overloaded schedules, overwhelming debt, and being far too enslaved to our 4-bedroom, 3 bath home and excess physical possessions. The things we thought we "owned" really owned us, and living in bondage to them rendered us physically ill, mentally exhausted, and existing from day to day in an underlying state of misery. Through a sobering wake-up call, God made it clear that life-changes must be made, and what followed was a minimizing journey that has led us to sell our home, let go of about 90% of our physical possessions, and eliminate 100% of our debt. This book will appeal to anyone who has a desire to live a more minimal, Biblical-aligned life; anyone who is exhausted from over-indulgence in consumerism; anyone who would like to downsize and reduce the number of their physical possessions; and anyone who needs to read of living proof of a modern-day family who is currently walking this path. Minimalism is becoming increasingly popular as people tire of being bound to their possessions and obligations. Many long for a simpler life, but do not know how to find it or even where to begin. As we walked our own minimizing journey, I often longed for a minimalism book that was written from a Biblical viewpoint, and I found that there are few such books available. My family and I wanted to be sure that what we were doing was not merely following after a "movement," but that it fully aligned with God's Word and how Jesus lived His life on earth. As my attempts to find a book continually came up short, I turned directly to God's Word and in-depth personal study. The result of that whole-hearted searching is the book, "Biblical Minimalism." It blazes the trail on the subject of Scripture-based minimalism and meets a growing need.
