Book Synopsis Tombstones and Banana Trees by : Medad Birungi
Download or read book Tombstones and Banana Trees written by Medad Birungi and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up with a violent father in the country of Uganda in the 1960s, Medad Birungi faced physical and emotional pain that few people can imagine––yet today he speaks of a revolutionary forgiveness we all can experience. Once a boy who begged to die by the side of the road, once a teenager angry enough to kill, once a man broken and searching, today Medad is a testimony to God’s transforming power. Through his story of healing, Medad calls readers to find healing from their own emotional scars. As Medad’s remarkable journey shows, when people forgive each other, they are doing something truly radical. They are changing relationships, communities, countries. They are welcoming God into the corners of the human soul, where real revolution begins.

Book Synopsis Guerilla Christianity by : James Costello
Download or read book Guerilla Christianity written by James Costello and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible reveals we are in a battle—a spiritual war waged on earth and in heavenly places—for our very souls. We have a real enemy of our faith who wants to take away our peace, joy, and happiness. It is his desire to destroy lives. It is God’s desire to restore them. In Guerilla Christianity, author James Costello demonstrates, through sound life principles and scripture passages, there is a way to battle the enemy of our faith and to live a faith-filled life. He weaves personal accounts of loss and spiritual battle with tales of bravery and faith. Offering inspiration to others, he provides examples of God’s spiritual weapons that were used to overcome extreme circumstances. James communicates that God does not want you—his child—to live a defeated, meaningless existence. He wants you to walk in the power of his might, to have a sense of purpose and direction.
Book Synopsis TRIP by : H. ROESTONO SOEPARTO KOESOEMO
Download or read book TRIP written by H. ROESTONO SOEPARTO KOESOEMO and published by PT. Rayyana Komunikasindo. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the current era, the vocabulary "soldier" and "student" rarely come together in one complete word, because usually someone can only become a soldier after completing their primary and secondary education as a student. However, this was not the case in the era of Indonesia’s War of Independence. At that time, the words "Student Army" were actually synonymous with the heroic role played by high school and middle school students in the armed struggle to defend independence in the period 1945-1949. Based on the dynamics of events that have occurred since the Proclamation of Independence on 17 August 1945, followed by escalation which culminated in the outbreak of fighting on 10 November 1945 in Surabaya, the resilience and fighting spirit of the young Republic was tested for the first time in a Baptism of Fire. In the midst of the vicious fighting that raged in Surabaya, a group of armed students consolidated themselves into the Student Army of the Republic of Indonesia (TRIP) East Java Command. This book immortalizes the journey of the TRIP troops' struggle. Starting from Surabaya, mid-October 1945, to TRIP's rear-guard role in protecting the retreat of Republican troops from Surabaya to defensive positions centered in Malang throughout 1946, and their subsequent withdrawal from Malang after the First Dutch Military Aggression on 21 July 1947. The struggle then continued to the interior of the slopes of Mount Kelud and Arjosari to the Tapal Kuda area and the southern coast of East Java around Banyuwangi, until the recognition of Indonesia’s sovereignty on 27 December 1949. Everything was done by walking and walking and walking, crossing hundreds of kilometers of paths in the wilderness full of thorns and venomous animals, muddy village roads, and the hot asphalt of burning roads, often barefoot with no foot gear let alone combat shoes, with weapons slung faithfully on his shoulder. In several stages, this journey even involved having to pull and push field artillery piece while repelling air attacks, moving silently as a guerrilla unit, attacking and disappearing, spreading frustration and striking fear on the part of the colonial troops! It is not surprising that Field Marshall of the TNI (Ret.) Dr. AH. Nasution wrote in his memoir entitled "Fulfilling the Call of Duty (Edition 5 Around the Indonesian War of Independence)", as follows: "...of the many incidents of patriotism and heroism that have been officially reported, the most prominent is the heroic feats demonstrated by the members of the TRIP units...". This book is about them, from them, by them, for the Indonesian nation.

Book Synopsis Cecilia Valdés or El Angel Hill by : Cirilo Villaverde
Download or read book Cecilia Valdés or El Angel Hill written by Cirilo Villaverde and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cecilia Valdés is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same father. Eventually Cecilia gives in to Leonardo's advances; she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl. When Leonardo, who gets bored with Cecilia after a while, agrees to marry a white upper class woman, Cecilia vows revenge. A mulatto friend and suitor of hers kills Leonardo, and Cecilia is thrown into prison as an accessory to the crime. For the contemporary reader Helen Lane's masterful translation of Cecilia Valdés opens a new window into the intricate problems of race relations in Cuba and the Caribbean. There are the elite social circles of European and New World Whites, the rich culture of the free people of color, the class to which Cecilia herself belonged, and then the slaves, divided among themselves between those who were born in Africa and those who were born in the New World, and those who worked on the sugar plantation and those who worked in the households of the rich people in Havana. Cecilia Valdés thus presents a vast portrait of sexual, social, and racial oppression, and the lived experience of Spanish colonialism in Cuba.
Book Synopsis Tok Dalang and Stories of Other Malaysians by : Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof
Download or read book Tok Dalang and Stories of Other Malaysians written by Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tok Dalang and Stories of Other Malaysians is a collection of short fiction written by Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof over several years. The stories deal with a range of characters and issues that in some ways are unique in Malaysian fiction in the English language. Its main strength lies in the fact that while Malay characters still make their appearances in several of the stories, the stories also touch upon aspects of their traditional culture, something rare in Malaysian writing. Additionally, lives and particular concerns of members of the minority communities in the country, including Tamil Muslims, Sikhs, Pakistanis, as well as Indonesians, have been explored both in depth as well as in a sympathetic manner for the first time in Malaysian writing. Through the writers grasp of the English language, including its local nuances, as well as a sensitive appreciation of their diverse cultures and cultural manifestations, the lives of Malaysians have been subtly coaxed into these stories, which are likely to find an important place in contemporary Malaysian literature in English.
Download or read book Revise Us Again written by Frank Viola and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every person follows a script for living, a life guide that directs our behavior and shapes our choices. As believers, we find the original script for living woven throughout the Bible. Yet while the Christian message is simple, it can become complicated by our environment, our culture, and our religious ideas and traditions. For this reason, we are all in constant need of revising the scripts by which we live. Author Frank Viola believes we need to revisit and revise what it means to live the Christian life. Drawing from his rich background in ministry, Viola examines ten key areas that impact every believer and explores fresh ways to revise them. Conversational, insightful, and practical, Revise Us Again encourages us to examine those religious habits that we unconsciously pick up from others and rescript them with new habits that line up with our new nature in Christ.

Book Synopsis To Speak of this Land by : Duncan Brown
Download or read book To Speak of this Land written by Duncan Brown and published by University of Kwazulu Natal Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions of identity, belonging, and place are crucial issues in South Africa today. To Speak of this Land explores these issues in a way that is academically rigorous but refreshingly accessible. Duncan Brown's focus is South Africa - spanning Bushman storytelling, rock painting, and aboriginal land claims; African-Christian identity formations; Mazisi Kunene's Emperor Shaka the Great; Ronnie Govender's Cato Manor stories; the poetry of Douglas Livingstone; and the rap music of Prophets of da City - but he draws on comparative material from elsewhere in the world, as well as stressing the 'global' aspects of 'local' identities. To Speak of this Land offers thought-provoking answers for a South African context to this internationally challenging question.
