Rosebud's world seemed like an endless pile of pots and pans to wash, food to prepare, and bread to bake. Her father worked long days in the fields while her fifteen-year-old brother Isaac was the stable boy. But when a series of tragedies strikes, Rosebud is left alone and very afraid. Her only hope is that the words of her father will come true: "Just listen for the whippoorwill." When the harvest season is over, this sound will be her signal to follow in a desperate attempt to escape her cruel slavery. On the darkest of nights, Rosebud will meet the mysterious person the slaves called "Moses," who will lead her and other slaves on a harrowing journey toward the North on the Underground Railroad. Harriet Tubman, known as "Moses," was also an escaped slave and became famous for leading bands of runaways on their dangerous passage to Canada. Will rosebud be able to keep up?

Download or read book Bet the Farm written by Beth Hoffman and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Eloquent and detailed...It's hard to have hope, but the organized observations and plans of Hoffman and people like her give me some. Read her book -- and listen." -- Jane Smiley, The Washington Post In her late 40s, Beth Hoffman decided to upend her comfortable life as a professor and journalist to move to her husband's family ranch in Iowa--all for the dream of becoming a farmer. There was just one problem: money. Half of America's two million farms made less than $300 in 2019, and many struggle just to stay afloat. Bet the Farm chronicles this struggle through Beth's eyes. She must contend with her father-in-law, who is reluctant to hand over control of the land. Growing oats is good for the environment but ends up being very bad for the wallet. And finding somewhere, in the midst of COVID-19, to slaughter grass finished beef is a nightmare. If Beth can't make it, how can farmers who confront racism, lack access to land, or don't have other jobs to fall back on hack it? Bet the Farm is a first-hand account of the perils of farming today and a personal exploration of more just and sustainable ways of producing food.

But then a dangerous accident leaves him paralyzed with fear, and he runs to Moody looking for a way out. Will the evangelist be able to help him? The circus is counting on him . . . what if he falls?

Book Synopsis In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song by : Charles Brookins Taylor Sr.
Download or read book In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song written by Charles Brookins Taylor Sr. and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-09-06 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song takes the author, Charles Brookins Taylor Sr., on a journey using characters that represent three different generations in the search for the meaning of the whip-poor-will song. Through the combination of searching, observing, reminiscing, and dialoguing with others, he shows how the whip-poor-will song underscores what is said in Psalm 19:1, "The heavens declare the glory of God," a reminder that each creature or thing in God's creation has been given the innate ability to accomplish an ordained purpose in relating to Him and others, each in its own unique way. Taylor draws upon the Scriptures to remind us that God speaks to us through His visible and invisible creation, which tells us that although the spiritual realm transcends the physical realm, it permeates and operates within it. Taylor also shows us how God is using the whip-poor-will as a conduit to proclaim a message to us that His love is unconditional and unfailing. And likewise, He wants to use us to do the same. In a world that often seems to be filled with hate, selfishness, and discord, you may find yourself wondering what has become of our love for one another. In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song's story will help us to know that every creature or thing of God has been given the ability to speak love to us, each in its own language, each in its own unique way, each with its own dance. May we all remember that God has given each of us and all His creation the ability to proclaim His love and His glory, and when we allow this to happen, our life will begin to have purpose, peace, happiness, and joy, knowing that God's love for us is really real.
