Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tiny home is where the heart is in this novel fromthe author and TV producer whose credits include Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. It’s not the size of the house . . . At twenty-two, Vivien Orlando is already a homeowner—albeit of the tiniest of tiny houses, a whopping 64 square footer called “Shrimpfork.” It’s the perfectly portable home from which to run Organization Oracle, Vivien’s new business as a personal organizer. In fact, she’ll be toting Shrimpfork to her upcoming client’s home near Taos, New Mexico. Seventy-year-old Priscilla has a colorful past, a rambunctious boxer named Clay—and a home crammed with treasures . . . Priscilla also has a love for the TV program “This Old Thing?” Her twenty-five-year-old neighbor, Marco, is happy to watch it with her—while watching over her. When Vivien arrives, it’s clear she and Marco are suspicious of each other’s intentions. But Priscilla’s determination to get her most cherished possession appraised on “This Old Thing?” soon has all of them grudgingly working together. Vivien and Marco find themselves in cahoots, Priscilla discovers the wider world, Clay digs up trouble—and everyone learns that sometimes the greatest treasures are valued for their flaws . . . Praise for Celia Bonaduce and her novels “Celia Bonaduce writes well rounded, real life characters straight from the heart. I loved this book!”—Phyliss Miranda, New York Times bestselling author “The Merchant of Venice Beach has a fresh, heartwarming voice that will keep readers smiling as they dance through this charming story by Celia Bonaduce.”—Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author

Book excerpt: A man called Oxymoron, not born but made, seeks his identity throughout the two years of his whole life. Did he succeed? A man called Oxymoron is constructed, not in a lab but in a surgical theatre. No sooner does he wake up from anesthesia than he finds himself on the journey to discovering who he is. Not before long, he runs into his own dead body. He has three wives but is husband to none, two children but father of none. Though people from all walks are eager to meet with him, none is interested in knowing him. Does he belong to no one and nothing? From being an involved scientist, in frustration, he moves on to being an aloof farmer. One nice evening on his farm, he comes to know ‘who he is’; in fact, he also finds ‘why he is’. But then, in the time he has got in hand, it is already too late.

Few people would think that Christian men and women could be a part of that military culture.#xD;#xD;They not only can, but should.#xD;#xD;Godly men and women can be both good Christians and good fighter pilots, Sailors, Soldiers, or Marines - something many people believe is a contradiction. From fighter pilot traditions to the controversy of military evangelism, Christian Fighter Pilot explains not only the popular fighter pilot culture, but also the sometimes secretive world of the men and women who fly and fight. Whether in training or combat, Christians are shown that they can live out their faith and still excel in the world's best military.

Book excerpt: Are you a fun teacher? Or has your teaching slid into the same old everyday routine? Jazz up your approach with the innovative techniques found in Oxymoron?, and transform your classroom from boring to exciting! Through his years of teaching, author and teacher Matthew Bryant has discovered a need for teachers who are able to motivate students as well as pique their interest in learning. This strikes at the very heart of education and is something that numerous schools and teacher training programs lack. Many teachers know they are not fun, but they lack a solution to the problem. Oxymoron? is a practical guide for any educator who is currently teaching grades kindergarten through high school. Using personal experiences from the classroom and recollections from when he was in school, Bryant focuses on how simple changes in an educator's routine can effect a student's perception about the teacher-and about school. If you are not reaching your full potential as an educator, then Oxymoron? can help you transform your routine from dull to inspired!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, when the debate about same-sex marriage was active and leading to legislation, my wife and I followed the news avidly but with only one thought—same-sex marriage is wrong. As Christians, we believed in our marriage in church and in the vows taken. We could accept differences, and to us, the acts of civil union seemed to give same-sex couples an identity and a protection from abuse, which they were entitled to. When these acts were passed, it was not enough. Laws were passed to allow same-sex marriage, which to us, compounded the position. The element of same-sex couples denying their sexuality by contriving to become parents by utilizing, in some way, the services of the opposite sex seemed totally against the law of nature and the very sexuality that gays and lesbians had wanted legalized in the first place. Laws may be passed, but it does not mean that Christians and churches have to accept these laws as being scriptural and Christian. There is nothing in the Bible that supports same-sex marriage, yet general assemblies of denominations have approved same-sex marriage—often without the approval of individual congregations. This cannot be right in principle or practice. Sadly, my wife died in September 2015, but our united stance continues.

This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arising from the philosophical conviction that our sense of space plays a direct role in our apprehension and construction of reality (both factual and fictional), this book investigates how conceptions of postmodern space have transformed the history of the impossible in literature. Deeply influenced by the work of Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar, there has been an unprecedented rise in the number of fantastic texts in which the impossible is bound to space — space not as scene of action but as impossible element performing a fantastic transgression within the storyworld. This book conceptualizes and contextualizes this postmodern, fantastic use of space that disrupts the reader’s comfortable notion of space as objective reality in favor of the concept of space as socially mediated, constructed, and conventional. In an illustration of the transnational nature of this phenomenon, García analyzes a varied corpus of the Fantastic in the past four decades from different cultures and languages, merging literary analysis with classical questions of space related to the fields of philosophy, urban studies, and anthropology. Texts include authors such as Julio Cortázar (Argentina), John Barth (USA), J.G. Ballard (UK), Jacques Sternberg (Belgium), Fernando Iwasaki (Perú), Juan José Millás (Spain,) and Éric Faye (France). This book contributes to Literary Theory and Comparative Literature in the areas of the Fantastic, narratology, and Geocriticism and informs the continuing interdisciplinary debate on how human beings make sense of space.
