Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book deals with God's dealings with Israel and their unfaithful towards Him. The Northern Kingdom which was predominantly led by Jeroboam and the tribe of Ephraim drifted away from God's commandments and worshipped other gods. God considered their unfaithfulness as spiritual adultery. Gomer, who became prostitute and later another man's possession, was bought by Hosea at a price and loved her. God promised to restore them. God resurrected Israel as a Nation; yet many are yet to accept Jesus Christ as their Messiah. They will receive Promised Land in full, in the Millennium.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - KING-BORN: A Story for Teenagers and adults of all ages. Few of us in the English-speaking world nowadays believe that a man is bound by destiny; but medieval Europeans had no doubt of it. A 'lucky' man would be successful; an 'ill-starred' man would fail. The gods were paramount. During the twelfth to fourteenth centuries, the story of Olaf the Strong was a favourite of the English minstrels. Olaf was born the son of Magnus, King of the Danes; but Magnus died of his wounds when his son was still too young to hold the throne. Magnus' brother Thorard was to guard the throne until Olaf reached manhood; but he was greedy and plotted to kill Olaf. However, by the will of the gods Olaf overcame all obstacles and eventually gained not only the throne of Denmark but the throne of England as well. The King-born may be an old English account of the Danish conquest of England in 1013; and it provides a fascinating glimpse of Northern Europe 1000 years ago as well as the excitement of following Olaf's adventures.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In 1999, the discovery of a young woman's mummified body beneath a mansion in Long Island, New York, captivated the nation's imagination.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Tom McIntyre has written a story so beyond the ken of our quotidian existence that it is un-human, inhuman, and super-human all at once. The Snow Leopard's Tale is strange, in the sense of the Latin root of the word, 'outside the place we're in.' McIntyre's meld of man and beast alerts the beast in me and alarms the man.' P.J. O'Rourke 'I stand before The Snow Leopard's Tale in awe and with a little envy. It is a gem, an uncanny evocation of the cold ancient dusty highlands of Central Asia, and could only have come from Tom McIntyre. It is his best.' Stephen J. Bodio 'The Snow Leopard's Tale is a haunting, beautifully written, and thought-provoking tale, as all great parables are.' Ted Kerasote.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - For educators and general readers, this important, lively and readable book tells a different story of youth. Clinical psychologist Adam Cox - author of Boys of Few Words and No Mind Left Behind - draws upon clinical practice and groundbreaking global research to offer a compelling new narrative about childhood priorities, adolescent angst and the work of schools. He declares these topics to be worthy of serious consideration, and children as fascinating and complex as any other age group with respect to their attitudes and understanding of what a good and purposeful life implies. Current social and economic trends reflect a time of deep transition in our personal values, career trajectories, and social imperatives. Young people's lives are radically shifting in response to new technologies, politics, and changing environmental realities. Cox asserts it is critical to re-examine basic questions - What is living well Why do we work How do we find meaning and purpose in vocation How do we raise and teach children to be effective citizens What does best-selling literature tell us about how to raise kids Clearheaded, provocative, and compassionate, On Purpose Before Twenty presents a series of readable, practical essays: The Purpose of Work, Sovereign Minds, The Case for Boredom, On Monstrous Children, Being Harry Potter, and School as Wisdom Culture. It offers a roadmap for primary and secondary schools seeking to provide an education relevant to the concerns and priorities of youth. The book asks what are schools for, and discusses whether ADHD is the new normal. Most important, the book addresses how the next generation is radically different in terms of motivation, communication, and vocational perspectives. Cox suggests that knowing one's purpose is as important as a good education and loving parents. His book echoes a fundamental belief that our serious regard for the potential of young people makes the world a more welcoming place for them. It is as much an essential form of stewardship as protecting forests, and creatures living on the brink of extinction.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The funniest book about heartbreak you will ever read. Sometimes a single sentence can change your life. 'There's been an accident.' 'We need to talk.' Or, in the case of Sara, a mother of four getting ready for a dinner party she's hosting for her husband's boss, the almost offhand admission from her husband that he's having an affair. Sara is a film director (when she can get the work), and when her life becomes overwhelming, she slips into a cinematic world in her head. The novel becomes a script with Sara its star - an action hero drop kicking the other woman, or crawling across a table at a dinner party to slash her husband's cheek. It's her mental escape when life runs off the rails. But soon her awkward, awful and often hilarious attempts to patch up the marriage make her real life feel something like a movie - one with a private detective, cold revenge, and eventually . . . handsome new leading men. Each chapter is named after one of the old films from the 40's and 50's - the ones where the villains are punished and everyone lives happily ever after. Soon Sara learns that Woody Allen's line, 'life is - complicated' is more apt. As she is challenged by life, her taste in film becomes more contempory. This look behind the scenes of a Hollywood marriage will make you cringe, laugh out loud and sometimes stop you on the page when you read about those horrible moments we know all too well - the first time you realize it's really over, the jealousy, the gut-crushing pain, and finally, the freedom that comes from knowing you can make it on your own.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Eight children survived the harvest of Russet Creek. Just eight. Russet Creek was a small town. Its population was about five thousand people. Of that five thousand, probably a thousand or so of them were children. Of that thousand or so, eight survived. All of the rest were taken in one night. It was a glorious victory for the boogeymen. Or so they thought. For as long as there have been children, there have been boogeymen to take them. Sometimes they eat the children. Sometimes they carry them away to some horrible, unknown place, and the children are never heard from again. Sometimes-more often that you would like to think-they are hiding in the closet because the child's parents let them in. For as long as there have been boogeymen, there have been those who fought against them; humans, animals, fantastical creatures; armed with toys, and magic, and stories. The war between the Kinderguard and the boogeymen is the oldest struggle in the history of the human race. After the boogeymen invade their town, five eleven year olds, two teenagers, and one infant will find themselves at the center of this great conflict. BUMP IN THE NIGHT is a story for very brave children who are wise enough to know that the thing under the bed is real, and for adults who are not too grown up to understand that stories are what save us from the monsters.…
