Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Look at the Birdie is a collection of fourteen previously unpublished short stories from one of the most original writers in all of American fiction. In this series of perfectly rendered vignettes, written just as he was starting to find his comic voice, Kurt Vonnegut paints a warm, wise, and often funny portrait of life in post—World War II America–a world where squabbling couples, high school geniuses, misfit office workers, and small-town lotharios struggle to adapt to changing technology, moral ambiguity, and unprecedented affluence. In “Shout About It from the Housetops,” an unassuming storm window salesman observes the effects of full disclosure firsthand when he drops in on the town’s freshly minted celebrity couple–a notorious ladies’ man and his novelist wife, author of a scandalous bestseller not-so-loosely based on her real marriage. “Shout About It from the Housetops” and the thirteen other never-before-published pieces that comprise Look at the Birdie serve as an unexpected gift for devoted readers who thought that Kurt Vonnegut’s unique voice had been stilled forever–and provide a terrific introduction to his short fiction for anyone who has yet to experience his genius.

Book excerpt: “Relentlessly fun to read.”—Dave Eggers • A collection of fourteen previously unpublished short stories from one of the most original writers in all of American fiction In this series of perfectly rendered vignettes, written just as he was starting to find his comic voice, Kurt Vonnegut paints a warm, wise, and funny portrait of life in post–World War II America—a world where squabbling couples, high school geniuses, misfit office workers, and small-town lotharios struggle to adapt to changing technology, moral ambiguity, and unprecedented affluence. Here are tales both cautionary and hopeful, each brimming with Vonnegut’s trademark humor and profound humanism. A family learns the downside of confiding their deepest secrets into a magical invention. A man finds himself in a Kafkaesque world of trouble after he runs afoul of the shady underworld boss who calls the shots in an upstate New York town. A quack psychiatrist turned “murder counselor” concocts a novel new outlet for his paranoid patients. While these stories reflect the anxieties of the postwar era that Vonnegut was so adept at capturing—and provide insight into the development of his early style—collectively, they have a timeless quality that makes them just as relevant today as when they were written. It’s impossible to imagine any of these pieces flowing from the pen of another writer; each in its own way is unmistakably, quintessentially Vonnegut. Featuring a foreword by author and longtime Vonnegut confidant Sidney Offit and illustrated with Vonnegut’s characteristically insouciant line drawings, Look at the Birdie is an unexpected gift for readers who thought his unique voice had been stilled forever—and serves as a terrific introduction to his short fiction for anyone who has yet to experience his genius. Includes these never-before-published stories: “Confido” “FUBAR” “Shout About It from the Housetops” “Ed Luby’s Key Club” “A Song for Selma” “Hall of Mirrors” “The Nice Little People” “Hello, Red” “Little Drops of Water” “The Petrified Ants” “The Honor of a Newsboy” “Look at the Birdie” “King and Queen of the Universe” “The Good Explainer” “[Look at the Birdie] brings us the late writer’s young voice as he skewers—sometimes gently, always lethally—post World War II America.”—The Boston Globe

Historical analysis reveals that the countercultural movements and evangelicalism share a common heritage. Shires warns that political operatives in both parties need to heed this fact if they hope to either, in the case of the Republican Party, retain their evangelical constituency, or, in the case of the Democratic Party, recruit new evangelical voters.

Book excerpt: What could be more familiar than the Christmas story--and yet what could be more extraordinary? The cast of characters is strange and exotic: shepherds and magicians, an emperor and a despot, angels, and a baby who is Almighty God. The strangeness calls for an explanation, and this book provides it by examining the characters and the story in light of the biblical and historical context. Bestselling author Scott Hahn who has written extensively on Scripture and the early Church, brings evidence to light, dispelling some of the mystery of the story. Yet Christmas is made familiar all over again by showing it to be a family story. Christmas, as it appears in the New Testament, is the story of a father, a mother, and a child--their relationships, their interactions, their principles, their individual lives, and their common life. To see the life of this "earthly trinity" is to gaze into heaven.

Book excerpt: From Benjamin Franklin's newspaper hoax that faked the death of his rival to Abbie Hoffman’s attempt to levitate the Pentagon, pranksters, hoaxers, and con artists have caused confusion, disorder, and laughter in Western society for centuries. Profiling the most notorious mischief makers from the 1600s to the present day, Pranksters explores how “pranks” are part of a long tradition of speaking truth to power and social critique. Invoking such historical and contemporary figures as P.T. Barnum, Jonathan Swift, WITCH, The Yes Men, and Stephen Colbert, Kembrew McLeod shows how staged spectacles that balance the serious and humorous can spark important public conversations. In some instances, tricksters have incited social change (and unfortunate prank blowback) by manipulating various forms of media, from newspapers to YouTube. For example, in the 1960s, self-proclaimed “professional hoaxer” Alan Abel lampooned America’s hypocritical sexual mores by using conservative rhetoric to fool the news media into covering a satirical organization that advocated clothing naked animals. In the 1990s, Sub Pop Records then-receptionist Megan Jasper satirized the commodification of alternative music culture by pranking the New York Times into reporting on her fake lexicon of “grunge speak.” Throughout this book, McLeod shows how pranks interrupt the daily flow of approved information and news, using humor to underscore larger, pointed truths. Written in an accessible, story-driven style, Pranksters reveals how mischief makers have left their shocking, entertaining, and educational mark on modern political and social life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what Disney World would be like if it were centered on Jesus instead of cartoon characters? Would it be a good thing? Or would there just be as much fantasy as any other theme park run by robotics and remote controls? Is it OK to make Jesus and his message more “entertaining” if people are converted in the process? Or is it better to simply follow the pattern of his life and his lifestyle, and make not just converts, but true disciples? Jesus World, a novel, is a fictional study of the differences between high profile Christianity, riddled with compromise yet justified by countless conversions, and simple Jesus-like discipleship. Can both exist side-by-side? Or will one overtake the other, in the name of God?

Book excerpt: The Truth, was inspired by a conversation the author had over lunch one day about Jesus. The prevailing thought in many circles is that He was no more than a prophet. Carl E. Holland set out to prove from Scripture that Jesus was more than just a prophet or a good man. He was God who came to Earth in human form to provide redemption for mankind. This study is an exciting examination of who Jesus was in eternity past, His role in dealing with the rebellion of Satan, who Jesus is today, and what He will be doing in the future. Holland reveals that Jesus was the One who created all things through a thorough examination of creation. His role in heaven as the Head of the Church is explained, and Holland delves into prophetic fulfillment to uncover Jesus' future role in the ages to come. Carl E. Holland brings twenty years of award-winning investigative journalism, and another twenty years of pastoral experience together to provide straight-shooting answers to some of the toughest questions on the minds of this generation. He has reached thousands of people through his standing-room-only live presentations, audio series, books, and other print media. His communication style provides what are sometimes complicated facts, to a post-modern generation in a way that captures the attention of young and old alike. Whether teaching in a mega-church or a homeless shelter, his jargon-free delivery of complex biblical truths makes him one of America's top theological teachers. Carl spent sixteen years as a pastor of one of the fastest growing churches in Virginia. He has since established Carl Holland Ministries, and has authored four other biblically-oriented books. He currently lives with his wife of 44 years, Diane, in eastern Virginia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent gallop polls and Barna research confirm that although 86% of Americans claim to be Christian, a whopping 61% reject a literal Satan or hell. God's prodigals perish for lack of knowledge embracing only what they perceive as normal. the routine sound of their enemy's breath. From the pages of my own past springs forth a profoundly shocking and eye opening truth relevant to a multitude of prodigals; although my spirit became eternally engaged at the age of eleven, my soul had yet to receive the education so pertinent to its survival, causing a downward spiraling that nearly aborted my earthly life. To that missing remnant, I present this scroll of remembrance, present day evidence that Jesus Christ is still alive and well, faithfully keeping His covenant promises to everyone whose name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life. As a former prodigal, Merry Jo shares her insights into the desperate life and character of a prodigal and of the matchless, mysterious grace of the Father who has eternally foreknown and loved her. Her inspired messages continue to appear in anthologies, journals and military resources throughout the United States and abroad, instructing saints on their positional inheritance in Christ and warning the church of Satan's clear and present danger. This declaration of independence paves an avenue of grace destined to catapult struggling prodigals out of the house of bondage, safely into the Savior's waiting embrace. She has advocated for prodigals and their families since her miraculous deliverance and homecoming in 1983. Merry Jo is a pediatric nurse living in Asheville, North Carolina with her husband Tim and three children, Timothy, She'lah and Sariah. Breakthrough World Outreach Center is where they call home.
