Download or read book Do Pirates Wear Pajamas?: And Other Mysteries in the Adventure of Fathering written by Gordon Dalbey and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-15 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's not an adventure unless it's a little scary!" The lessons of fathering are the character of God Whatever you don't forgive your father for, you'll do to your son. Many years ago, in a land far, too far away, my three-year-old son sat excitedly on my lap before bedtime while together we read a picture book based on Treasure Island. As Long John Silver, cutlass in hand, chased young Jim across the page and through the jungle, the boy within my arms suddenly knit his brow and looked up at me. "Daddy," he burst out, "do pirates wear pajamas?" Startled, I drew back. "Uh, well, that's...uh, a really great question!" I managed. When I was a much younger man and unmarried, my father once told me, "If you never have children, you'll miss out on one of life's greatest adventures." He was right. WELCOME TO THE ADVENTURE OF FATHERING In these impacting real-life stories, you'll meet a bestselling Christian author who's a dad in on-the-job training-sometimes stumbling, sometimes celebrating, always learning. Experience teaches us the best lessons. But too often, we men miss the experience because we fear the shame of not knowing how to do it. There's good news here for dads: We're in this adventure together as men and the Father of us all stands with us. You don't have to know how to do it. You just have to know Who does it. Never trust a dad without spit-up on his pajamas. Like Jesus, the child restores innocence to this world. Watch for what God is doing in your child, and bless it.
Book Synopsis Healing the Masculine Soul by : Gordon Dalbey
Download or read book Healing the Masculine Soul written by Gordon Dalbey and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2003-09-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his groundbreaking book fifteen years ago, Gordon Dalbey identified the fact that men's souls have been torn between strength and sensitivity. Today, the situation is even worse. The politically correct crowd cries out for men to be more sensitive, to tame their masculine nature. On the opposing side, the media bombards men with "macho" images of violence and lust. Is it any wonder men are left bewildered about who they should be? In this newly revised and updated edition of Healing the Masculine Soul, Dalbey claims that there's hope for restoration, hope for healing-because Christ has come to heal us. God is calling men out to a relationship with Himself and calling them out to authentic manhood. "Our task is not to curse our manhood, but to redeem it," he writes. Gordon Dalbey's refreshing, comprehensive picture of God's design for the masculine soul dares men to be as God created them to be-not as society demands. Dalbey tackles the tough issues, including work, sexuality, marriage, and fatherhood. Book includes Study Guide.
Download or read book No Small Snakes written by Gordon Dalbey and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are You Ready for Battle? As a Peace Corps volunteer in rural Nigeria, a much-younger Gordon Dalbey scoffed at an illiterate laborer's account of dark spirits that had invaded his house. The man looked the highly educated American squarely in the eye. "There are no small snakes," he declared. Even as the smallest poisonous snake can easily kill the largest and strongest man, to discount dark spiritual forces is not only arrogant, but dangerous. No Small Snakes relates Dalbey's upending journey from scoffer to spiritual warrior, from arrogance to bold humility. Both spiritual memoir and soldier's manual, this book will challenge you to face the spiritual battle at hand today and prepare you to win it – in your heart and in the world.

Perfect for fans of Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library and classics like Holes. Samantha Spinner's uncle Paul disappeared, and here's what he left: * Samantha's sister got a check for $2,400,000,000. * Samantha's brother got the New York Yankees. * And Samantha got a rusty red umbrella with a tag hanging off its worn handle. The tag says "Watch out for the RAIN." Thanks a lot, Uncle Paul. After all the strawberry waffles, stories, and puzzles they've shared, how could he just leave without saying goodbye? And what is the meaning of that mysterious message? The answer is simple. Sam knows in her heart that Uncle Paul is in danger. And if he taught her anything, it's that not everything is exactly what it seems.

Book excerpt: "An atmospheric, compelling story of survival, tragedy, the enduring power of myth and memory, and the moments that change one's life." --Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Four Winds "[An] enthralling and emotional tale...A story about strength and fate."--Woman's World “An epic novel that explores the metal of human spirit in crisis. It is an expertly told, fascinating story that runs fathoms deep on multiple levels.”—New York Journal of Books It was called "The Titanic of the South." The luxury steamship sank in 1838 with Savannah's elite on board; through time, their fates were forgotten--until the wreck was found, and now their story is finally being told in this breathtaking novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Becoming Mrs. Lewis. When Savannah history professor Everly Winthrop is asked to guest-curate a new museum collection focusing on artifacts recovered from the steamship Pulaski, she's shocked. The ship sank after a boiler explosion in 1838, and the wreckage was just discovered, 180 years later. Everly can't resist the opportunity to try to solve some of the mysteries and myths surrounding the devastating night of its sinking. Everly's research leads her to the astounding history of a family of eleven who boarded the Pulaski together, and the extraordinary stories of two women from this family: a known survivor, Augusta Longstreet, and her niece, Lilly Forsyth, who was never found, along with her child. These aristocratic women were part of Savannah's society, but when the ship exploded, each was faced with difficult and heartbreaking decisions. This is a moving and powerful exploration of what women will do to endure in the face of tragedy, the role fate plays, and the myriad ways we survive the surviving.
