Book excerpt: If the Bible is the infallible word of God, why is it full of stories that strain credulity, not to say fly in the face of reality? While standing up for morality and responsibility, the author pokes fun at some of the tales we were told in Sunday School in this series of short essays questioning various aspects of the Old and New Testament, the beliefs ofChristianity and religion in general, morality, and ethics. In this series of short essays, the author questions various aspects of the Bible and asks how reliable, realistic and relevant they are. He looks at Christian preaching and basic morality (which we innately understand based on what works for humanity's greater good) and points out countless exemplary stories in the Scripture that illustrate cruelty, abuse and crime. The book is an attempt through Socratic teaching and questioning to evaluate the concepts and strongly held beliefs of religions and specifically Christianity. The arguments are grounded in common sense and expose religious stories as the kind of magical thinking that appeals to children. This book will be helpful to three types of readers: 1. Fence-straddlers who are questioning their religion or beliefs, those who are untaught about religion and wonder what they're missing, and those who are concerned about the beliefs in which they were indoctrinated in as a child, 2. Believers who want to learn more about what atheists think, so as to counter it in future arguments with atheists, and 3. Atheists who want solid arguments in dealing with the Religionists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Return to the world of Derek Adams, a boozing, chain-smoking private investigator who moves in Glasgow's lowest, deadliest, and darkest circles in this collection of Lovecraftian noir! This collection includes Rhythm and Booze The Weathered Stone The Inuit Bone A Slim Chance Farside Eeny Meeny Miney Mi-Go Deal or No Deal? Call and Response Home is the Sailor Praise for the Midnight Eye Files "Meikle's writing makes you feel like you're there, in the rain with Derek Adams, searching seedy pawn shops and bars for the answers. The atmosphere is terrific, and the author knows that sometimes less is more." - The Lovecraft ezine "I encourage you to pour yourself a couple of fingers of whisky and visit Meikle's and Derek's Glasgow some evening as the shadows grow long." - New Pulp "The writing itself is crisp, filled with good description and strong dialogue. The Scottish setting, while not prominent, grounds the reader in a sense of place. The characters, while themselves variations on noir tropes, are beleivable, and more importantly, likable. All of this, taken together, makes for a smooth, enjoyable read." - Rich Ristow, Strange Latitudes

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man is driven to find the GOD he lost in the garden of Eden, and now you know the truth! Some men are so desperate that they look to cold dumb rocks for the majesty of creation, and that pursuit leads them to another creator, another god, and the greatest lie ever toldaEUR"evolution. Perhaps some people just didnaEUR(tm)t get the GOD gene or perhaps they got it, but the gene is just flawed. How else could evolution end up leading to the worship of strange gods? It is all just rocks, fake pictures, and the dirt shoveled out of the way trying to bury GOD with a lie. You can seek the popular opinion and ignore the GOD coursing through your veins, but it will be at your loss and truly sad. The fire will still be in your heart, but it will burn for a strange god and one that lies.

Download or read book Seeds of Faith written by Howard Duryea and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Christians, and even some non-Christians, know the parable of the Sower of the Seeds. Jesus told this parable to a crowd of people who were following him. In Seeds of Faith you will see, through the life of one pastor named Larry Ballholland and a young man named Matthew, how the gospel is spread to the many colorful characters who live in a small town in northern New York. You will follow these characters through their numerous, joyous and sorrowful experiences; from eel fishing on Lake Ontario to struggling with sobriety to the bonds of friendship and how one tragedy changed many lives in the small town of Beaumont. Although the town and characters are fictitious, the reactions the inhabitants have to the presentation of the gospel of Jesus Christ are similar to those the author has witnessed throughout his Christian life. As you read this book try to determine which type of soil; hard, stony, thorny or good soil, the seeds of faith, the gospel, falls on as it is presented to the different characters in the book. It is hoped that through reading Seeds of Faith, you will have a broadened understanding of how a person may receive the good news of forgiveness of sin and offer of salvation through a belief and trust in Jesus Christ. This story also shows how the saving grace of Jesus Christ comforts and transforms the people of this small town. You will see how the Holy Spirit can take the hard soil of a person's heart and eventually cultivate it into good soil with good depth resulting in a faithful, fruitful Christian life thereafter.

Book excerpt: Growing up in a broken home during the turbulent 1970s wasn’t easy, particularly if you were a city kid marooned in Northern British Columbia. One castaway, Mike Turkki, survived his childhood shipwreck and made it out alive. Now he’s ready to share just how dysfunctional, confusing, and humorous his teenage years were. In a bid to stay one step ahead of debt collectors and antagonistic relatives, the Turkki family—Mike, Kelly, Laina, Pat, and Olavi—left Vancouver and moved to Ootsa Lake in 1972 with little more than each other and the clothes on their backs. Eleven-year-old Mike was initially unimpressed by his new surroundings—why was everyone so distrustful of outsiders?—but soon became part of a ragtag group of boys intent on making money, chasing girls, and challenging authority in an isolated community on the brink of change. Though the bond between the boys weakened over time, their penchant for causing trouble never did. A tale of fishing trips, first drinks, family outings, and other near-mishaps, Mike Turkki’s coming-of-age memoir will have you laughing, crying, and reflecting on your own journey to adulthood.

In the middle of this turmoil, an old medicine woman for the Monacan Indians gives her a cryptic message about a coming darkness: a blood moon whose veiled danger threatens Nettie and those she loves. To survive, Nettie and her best friend, Win, have to build a mysterious dreamcatcher—one that requires them to scour the perilous mountains for Nature’s ancient but perfect elements. A captivating standalone sequel to The Wiregrass, a Historical Novel Society’s Editor’s Choice and Southern Literary Review’s Read of the Month.

Nearly all the material in the 1933 Supplement has been retained here, though in revised form (Preface).
