Book excerpt: The timeless fiction of Louis L'Amour is both unforgettable and undeniably American, deftly capturing the heroic bravery and intrepid spirit that make this nation great. L’Amour ’s legacy of work remains unparalleled, setting a standard of excellence that few other writers have matched. Now With These Hands pulls together some of L’Amour's very best work--eleven newly rediscovered stories that have never before appeared in a single volume. WITH THESE HANDS From a South Seas island paradise to the icy reaches of the Arctic, from the dark, gritty streets of urban America to the rugged landscape of the untamed West, the stories gathered in With These Hands combine razor-sharp characters with breathtaking action and historic detail. Here are tales of adventure, mystery, passion, suspense, and the Old West as only L’Amour can tell them. The result is a collection that profoundly echoes the highs and lows of the human experience, while proving that life’s most vital moments can occur when and where we least expect them. All of the classic L’Amour themes are represented: honor, loyalty, and standing up for what’s right despite the odds. These dramatic stories grab hold of the reader with a power and immediacy unsurpassed by any other writer. An exotic island in the Coral Sea is transformed into a tropical nightmare when it’s taken over by a band of hijackers--and only a daredevil pilot can stop their brutal carnage. A former boxer blows the lid off a vicious crime ring--and finds that his worst enemy is not a thug with a gun but his own tenacious curiosity. A down-on-his-luck rancher discovers the key to his own redemption--and desperately hopes that his revelation has not come too late for him to win the one thing he wants most of all. A private eye navigates the twists and turns of a labyrinthine whodunit--and proves that the greatest risk to a man’s honor is his own greed. The title story “With These Hands” is a powerful tale that celebrates the triumph of the human spirit, as an oil company executive finds himself the sole survivor of an Arctic plane crash. Fighting for his life against the perilous cold and looming starvation, he resists the temptation to surrender to death--only to discover a life-affirming strength he never knew he had. Vivid in scope and displaying the diverse talents of a master storyteller, the stories in With These Hands are certain to be treasured by both old and new fans, celebrating the incomparable imagination of a timeless American author.

Book excerpt: With These Hands is an inspiring story of the life of Selena, who, as a young girl in 1941, arrived in the big windy City of Chicago on a bus from Memphis, Tennessee by way of Clarksdale, Mississippi. She carried all that she owned in her two hands; her new baby girl in one arm, her suitcase and handmade quilt was in her other arm. Away from her mother, family and everything considered home, for the first time in her young life, Selena had no idea what the future held for her...but God knew. As a young newlywed, new mother in a new town, she rose from cooking all of her meals in her one speckled pan to becoming a successful businesswoman who owned multiple Beauty and Hair Weev salons in Chicago and Detroit. Selena, who began as a "kitchen beautician," went from charging fifty cents a head in her kitchen to charging hundreds, and then thousands per head, in her professional salons. Teaching and sharing her craft of Hair Weev Technology with cosmetologists all over the world exposed Selena's perseverance, which has always been a part of Selena's nature way back then, and has served as an inspiration to many others ever since. "Selena was the baddest chick to ever pick up a curling iron, but she was a legend when I started in the business." Ernest Daurham, D'orum Products "I lived in the Chatham neighborhood as a teenager. Miss Selena's shop on 83rd street was a hub for business in the community, and I remember thinking of her as a modern day "Madame CJ Walker." Senator Carol Mosley Braun "Oh, I have many memories about Selena's; it was across the street from the Tivoli (Theatre). I had many girlfriends who had their hair done at Selena's House of Beauty! Back in the day, black beauticians had reputations akin to singers and boxers today and that's why you went to their shops. Some of these beauticians had really big names and were crowded because of their name and the quality of their work. Selena's, of course, was rated among the best!" Herb Kent V103 (Legendary Chicago DJ)

Book Synopsis Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God by : Brian Zahnd
Download or read book Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God written by Brian Zahnd and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor Brian Zahnd began "to question the theology of a wrathful God who delights in punishing sinners, and has started to explore the real nature of Jesus and His Father. The book isn’t only an interesting look at the context of some modern theological ideas; it’s also offers some profound insight into God’s love and eternal plan." —Relevant Magazine (Named one of the Top 10 Books of 2017) God is wrath? Or God is Love? In his famous sermon “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” Puritan revivalist Jonathan Edwards shaped predominating American theology with a vision of God as angry, violent, and retributive. Three centuries later, Brian Zahnd was both mesmerized and terrified by Edwards’s wrathful God. Haunted by fear that crippled his relationship with God, Zahnd spent years praying for a divine experience of hell. What Zahnd experienced instead was the Father’s love—revealed perfectly through Jesus Christ—for all prodigal sons and daughters. In Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God, Zahnd asks important questions like: Is seeing God primarily as wrathful towards sinners true or biblical? Is fearing God a normal expected behavior? And where might the natural implications of this theological framework lead us? Thoughtfully wrestling with subjects like Old Testament genocide, the crucifixion of Jesus, eternal punishment in hell, and the final judgment in Revelation, Zanhd maintains that the summit of divine revelation for sinners is not God is wrath, but God is love.
