Book Synopsis Pistol Packin' Preachers by : Barbara Barton
Download or read book Pistol Packin' Preachers written by Barbara Barton and published by Taylor Trade Publications. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A writer once denounced the Lone Star State as "where the Godly could battle 'the devil' on his own ground." Circuit riders and other early preachers confronted dangerous outlaws, Indians, wild animals, and Texas' unpredictable weather. Their stories chronicle bringing one element of civilization to early explorers and settlers. Some fought for Texas independence with a Bible in one hand and a rifle in the other; others worked as drovers and preached along the cattle trails. One served as a deputy sheriff; others, as fort chaplains. European immigrant ministers and Negro preachers formed an unlikely mix in East Texas. The frontier lured them into all the danger, adventure, and challenge of others who faced the "devil in Texas." Circuit riders had preached to all regions of Texas before they "hung up their spurs and went to the camp meeting in the sky."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Captain Finds the Key is the exciting conclusion to a trilogy that began with The Captain Takes a Wife and continued with The Captain Seeks the Lost. As the story opens, Captain Harry Richardson and his friends and family are still reeling from events that occurred when a stranger came to Choestoe to threaten Harry’s wife and kidnap his son. In some way that he can’t understand, Harry knows that all the frightening events of the past two years are related. The man who is behind it all is called “the Boss,” and he is so feared by his followers that none of them will call him by name. The deacon who killed the sheriff may get away with murder if something isn’t done to bring him to justice, but is he the Boss, or is there someone else out there who is calling the shots—someone even more frightening than the deacon? Harry is determined to find out. Then he receives a warning note: Harry read it aloud. “If you care about your boy, don’t try to find me.” Ned looked at the note over Harry’s shoulder. “That’s [his] handwriting,” he said. “No question about it. What are you going to do?” Harry’s voice was quiet, but dangerous. “I’m going to find him.” Ned nodded. “That’s what I thought you’d say.”

Book Synopsis The Trauma of Sexual and Domestic Violence by : Sharon Ellis Davis
Download or read book The Trauma of Sexual and Domestic Violence written by Sharon Ellis Davis and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recovering from the trauma of sexual and domestic violence is a process that can lead you to find your own strength. Shaped by a faith identity incongruent with her reality as a survivor of sexual and physical abuse, Ellis Davis became intimately familiar with domestic violence and the church’s reluctance to intervene. Then, using marriages as a touchstone for self-discovery only led her into increasingly violent relationships. Even while navigating the process to wholeness as a woman police officer, Ellis Davis was not assured an expedient process through the courts nor protection from male police officers. Determined to define her worth for herself, Ellis Davis shares with liberating vulnerability decades of blessings and betrayals as she self-actualized from being a victim of domestic violence and sexual traumas to becoming victoriously accomplished and deeply content. This book provides hope for survivors, pastoral wisdom for seminarians, cultural sensitivity for service providers, and is useful as a guide for faith-based study groups.

Book excerpt: Great-grandfather has witnessed so much change in his life. When he was a boy the horse and buggy was the mode of transportation. He has lived to see aviation progress from a few barnstorming pilots hop-scotching across the country to jet aircraft thundering across the sky. And he was sitting there that day, in front of the television, when men walked on the moon. All the years and hard work have taken their toll but when he is seated in his favorite rocking chair, great-grandchildren scattered at his feet, his eyes sparkle as lively as they must have in his youth. He exuberantly recounts the past, painting vivid pictures of his life on the western frontier as a pioneer, miner, freighter, stage driver, Indian fighter, trapper, homesteader, logger, buckaroo .... The story over, he waits, and then a small voice implores, 'Grandpa, tell us another story, please.' Grandpa grins, 'Well, all right. Once a long, looong, looooong time ago....'

Download or read book Churchfails written by David K. Stabnow and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: churchfails is a collection of 100 articles describing people who claim to be Christians doing foolish things. Each article will include a picture of the subject. From the Introduction: "Groucho Marx once said, “I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.” If Christianity is a club, it has featured innumerable inglorious members. As abashed affiliates of said club, what can we do? We can try to deny our past and present peccadilloes, but covering up a crime is like poking a polecat—it’s worse in the end. So, we can rant and rave, or we can laugh and learn. This book settles on the second strategy."
Book Synopsis The Inducer by : Bishop James C. Bailey, PhD
Download or read book The Inducer written by Bishop James C. Bailey, PhD and published by Author House. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE INDUCER is a Christian / Science Fiction, Parabolic Story, inspired by the word of God and the actions or lack thereof of persons who read the word, or have exposure to the word of God, but perform as if evil is the powerful and ultimate alternate. There are persons who use the power of their minds to desire and wish failure and death upon others. Some have, in their self-righteousness and egotistical pride, set themselves above others based on some remarkable accomplishment or acquired status. Reality is that eternity cannot be bribed or purchased. It brings class and status, rich and poor together through a common medium called, death, and through a common portal, called, the grave. THE INDUCER is not that evil one, but is cast as an emotionless, paranormal character that uses the channels of the human mind to access and control the soul of evil concocting individuals. His purpose is to alter or expedite the wicked thinker's desires to a conclusion; whether good or bad.
Book Synopsis Whom Shall I Fear? by : Rosalind C. Hughes
Download or read book Whom Shall I Fear? written by Rosalind C. Hughes and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Churches are not immune to violence, as we have seen from shootings at houses of worship across the nation. The challenge for faith communities is how to respond to potential violence. Whom Shall I Fear? asks congregational leaders to examine whether their operational and security policies are consistent with gospel values. It raises common themes in approaches to church security and looks at them in the light of scripture. Whom Shall I Fear? provides thought-provoking reflections on topics such as locked doors, living faithfully in an unfaithful world, the question of armed security in a church setting, and the duty of Christians to extend hospitality to their neighbor. It includes stories from survivors of gun violence and wisdom on how churches can work to transform an anxious and fear-driven world. Whom Shall I Fear? helps the church thoughtfully wrestle with what it means to be a church of grace, welcome, and love when confronted with acts of cruelty, division, and hate.

Book Synopsis Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son by : Kevin Jennings

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before Kevin Jennings began advocating to end anti-LGBT bias in schools, he was a victim of it.

Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son is that rare memoir that is both a riveting personal story and an inside account of a critical chapter in our recent history. Creating safe schools for all youth is now a central part of the progressive agenda in American education—and Kevin Jennings is at the forefront of that fight. Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son earned an A- in Entertainment Weekly, was featured in Salon and The Advocate, and was called "a great read" by People.
Book Synopsis The Senator and the Sin Eater by : William J. Buchanan
Download or read book The Senator and the Sin Eater written by William J. Buchanan and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seneca Falls, West Virginia, is a picturesque town. Tucked between the foothills of the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains, it lives in the shadow of the Dunning and Munroe families, mining moguls who have competed for coal in the region for generations. It is a place Joshua Chacón would rather forget. The scorned biracial stepson of the Dunning dynasty, Chacón has acquired a national reputation and a Pulitzer Prize for his books revealing political skullduggery. Drawn back to the hometown he abandoned by news of the mysterious murder of his half brother, Senator Stewart Dunning, Josh soon becomes entangled in a murder plot thick with the power politics of the ruling families of West Virginia's mining country. "Any time you pick up a book with Bill Buchanan's name on the cover, there is one thing of which you can be certain: Colonel Buchanan always deals with his characters kindly and gently. The Senator and the Sin Eater, his last book before his death, provides a perfect example of this. . . . [It] is much more than a murder mystery. It is an examination of what sometimes goes wrong in a small, friendly town."--Tony Hillerman, from the Foreword
