Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women Will Evangelize the World "Leadership is influence" John Maxwell Yes, leadership is influence, and women have got it. And behind every great man is a good woman. The woman was created to be a help meet for the man. Man's helper. But when it comes to the devil, woman is a major player of the household. That means if the devil is to destroy Adam's family, he has to get the woman in his corner, agreeing with him. Therefore, when the devil, Satan, got the woman, Eve; Adam was not a match. Satan had the whole family: Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel, and the human race at large. Therefore, Mama Bear, the woman, is angry with her number-one enemy, the devil, and is now ready to evangelize and gather her children across the world, since Jesus has conquered and destroyed the power of the devil. God spoke to me and said, "Women will evangelize the world." Remember, history repeats itself. If the devil used woman to get Adam's family, it is obvious God will use women to gather Adam's family back to God's kingdom.
Book Synopsis SYLVANIA, LUCAS COUNTY, OHIO; by : Gayleen Gindy
Download or read book SYLVANIA, LUCAS COUNTY, OHIO; written by Gayleen Gindy and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join the author in reliving Sylvania's over 180 years of history from footpaths to expressways and beyond, in volume four of an eight volume set. With 30 years of research she has included every subject imaginable that helped bring Sylvania to where they are today, with excellent schools, over-the-top parks and recreation, rich beautiful homes, commercial and industrial businesses and a quaint historical dowtown that looks like it was planned by Norman Rockwell himself. This book is a treasure trove of information for the thousands who have ancestors that once lived and helped Sylvania grow through these years. Located in northwestern Ohio, Sylvania is a suburb of Toledo, Ohio and for many years has been known as "the fastest growing suburb in Lucas County." A once rural farm community, between both the city and township they have grown from a combined 2,220 residents in 1910, to 48,487 in 2010. Over a short period of time the land has transformed into beautiful subdivisions of grand houses, so that now their subdivision names are all that remain to remind them of their once dense forests and sprawling farmlands. No longer can Sylvania be called the "bedroom community" of Toledo, because over the last 50 years they have done a lot more than sleep.

Book Synopsis Hidden History of Monroe County, Michigan by : Shawna Lynn Mazur
Download or read book Hidden History of Monroe County, Michigan written by Shawna Lynn Mazur and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often overshadowed by its larger neighbors, Monroe County offers a rich tapestry of history for those willing to look. French-Canadian settlers left behind legends of monsters, ghosts, and witches. In war time, the community answered the call to arms with more soldiers per capita than any other county in the nation and proved a suitable hometown to take refuge between gun shots from none other than George Armstrong Custer. Like most communities, its sordid past reveals crimes and tragedies--including body snatching. More recently, a partial nuclear meltdown brought the city to the brink of disaster, but Monroe not only survived but now thrives. Join local author Shawna Lynn Mazur for a trip through little-known and forgotten parts of Monroe County's past.

Book Synopsis Pebbles from the Path by : John Higham
Download or read book Pebbles from the Path written by John Higham and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the main routes on the Underground Railroad ran through the State of Ohio, and the number of slaves escaping through Ohio was larger than any other state. The Ohio River forms the southern border of Ohio, and this river was inviting for slaves escaping from their masters. They felt that once they had crossed the Ohio River, they were in free territory, and they had placed that river between themselves and their pursuers. Once in Ohio there were many abolitionist men and women, black and white, who would help the fleeing slave escape from bondage at the risk of their own lives, fortunes, and personal freedom. Their final destination was the "promised land," Canada, where they were free. This book takes you through Ohio, to one of its most northern borders, Lucas County, where several Underground Railroad lines once ran; and then to Sylvania, Ohio to meet several of the operators who were involved in this illegal venture of harboring these runaway fugitive slaves. The book then takes a close look at the evidence available to indicate that Sylvania's "Historical Lathrop House" was a stop on the Underground Railroad, and that several of Sylvania's prominent citizens helped in this highly secret organization. Other points of interest include letters written during the Civil War by a correspondent serving in Company B - 189th Ohio Volunteer Regiment; speeches given by Sylvania resident Lucian B. Lathrop, state representative, in front of the Ohio Legislatures about topics of current events in the 1850's, prior to the Civil War; and in 1939, the discovery of a concealed room in the basement of the "Historic Lathrop House," with beds still in it where the slaves once hid and rested until it was safe to move on.

Book Synopsis Twentieth-Century Building Materials by : Thomas C. Jester
Download or read book Twentieth-Century Building Materials written by Thomas C. Jester and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the concluding decades of the twentieth century, the historic preservation community increasingly turned its attention to modern buildings, including bungalows from the 1930s, gas stations and diners from the 1940s, and office buildings and architectural homes from the 1950s. Conservation efforts, however, were often hampered by a lack of technical information about the products used in these structures, and to fill this gap Twentieth-Century Building Materials was developed by the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Park Service and first published in 1995. Now, this invaluable guide is being reissued—with a new preface by the book’s original editor. With more than 250 illustrations, including a full-color photographic essay, the volume remains an indispensable reference on the history and conservation of modern building materials. Thirty-seven essays written by leading experts offer insights into the history, manufacturing processes, and uses of a wide range of materials, including glass block, aluminum, plywood, linoleum, and gypsum board. Readers will also learn about how these materials perform over time and discover valuable conservation and repair techniques. Bibliographies and sources for further research complete the volume. The book is intended for a wide range of conservation professionals including architects, engineers, conservators, and material scientists engaged in the conservation of modern buildings, as well as scholars in related disciplines.
