Inappropriate looks and unwelcome late-night visits to Lindsey's house have everyone from the crafternooners to Lindsey's fiancé, Sully, on edge. When Grady's dead body is found outside the library and all the clues point to Sully, Lindsey knows it's up to her to find the real culprit and clear Sully's name. But becoming a thorn in the killer's side is not without its consequences, and the closer Lindsey gets to the truth, the more determined the murderer is to make her just a footnote.

Book Synopsis The Words of the Wise Are like Goads by : Mark J. Boda
Download or read book The Words of the Wise Are like Goads written by Mark J. Boda and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Meaningless, meaningless, everything is meaningless.” The word “meaningless” (hebel) appears more than 40 times in the book of Ecclesiastes and raises the question why a book that appears to deny meaning or purpose is included in the Bible. Many questions of interpretation as well as relevance surround the book of Ecclesiastes, including indeed the proper translation and understanding of the word hebel. If, after all, the book does examine the question of the meaning of life, what could be more important? The present volume explores Ecclesiastes/Qohelet on many different levels: linguistic, text-critical, theological, historical, and literary. The contributors, chosen from many of the leading and emerging experts on the book, present both the state of the field and their own assessment of the varied interpretive issues of Ecclesiastes. They include scholars, preachers, and philosophers. It should be helpful not only to scholars but also to all who want to study this book seriously. The first section of this volume deals with the history of interpretation. The second section is concerned with issues of history, form, and rhetoric. Section three is about key concepts and passages. The fourth section focuses on the language and grammar of Qohelet. The last section engages practical issues of interpretation. The volume is designed to provide exposure to a variety of readers who seek to engage Qohelet in fresh ways in the twenty-first century—from historians of interpretation to biblical exegetes to linguists to theological students.

Download or read book Word Wise written by Cammy Tidwell and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At first glance Yankee born Sheryl Vasso and Southerner Cammy Tidwell make an unlikely pair. Sheryl, who holds a Doctorate of Education from Immaculata University, has spent the last several years traveling the world as a professor of teachers enrolled in graduate studies. Currently, she is Chair of the Master of Science and Education Program at Philadelphia Biblical University and thrills to incorporate God's Word into every classroom discussion. After pursuing her own Master's of Combined Sciences from Mississippi College, Cammy found that marriage and motherhood took her out of the "professional world" for a while although she never once stopped studying, learning and teaching God's word. A close look, however, shows similarities far outweigh their differences. They are devoted to their families, and they both love words. It was through "words" that Sheryl and Cammy met when Cammy first heard Sheryl as a speaker. A few months later Sheryl was in the audience when Cammy spoke. Not long afterward, an incredible friendship began and a partnership was born. Now they share the speaking platform and their words in print at www.wordsofworth.com. Their first published work, Word Wise, is rooted in a difference they often discussed. While Sheryl has been reading a proverb a day for over twenty years, Cammy, also a faithful student of Scripture has just come to "appreciate" this book of wisdom. One thing for sure, both Sheryl and Cammy love words and desire to use them to glorify God in a wise way. (Both Sheryl and Cammy live in Newtown, PA) Word Wise connects King Solomon's wisdom found in the Old Testament book of Proverbs with the New Testament words of King Jesus. By bridging one King's wisdom with another King's words, you will find practical instruction for using words in the wisest way.
