I Have Seen It With My Own Eyes

Bo Giertz wrote this book drawing upon the exegetical insights that he received from his mentor Anton Fridrichsen before, during and after his trip to Palestine in the early 1930's. The book is a third-person retelling of the gospels that brings into account various Old Testament references and the contemporary interpretations of those passages by the Jews of Jesus' day as well as contemporary events throughout the Roman Empire, but most especially those directly affecting the Jewish people of Israel at the time, so that the gospel stories take on new life and meaning for the reader. It's both a harmonization of the gospels, and a commentary on them, but much richer. The perspectives change depending on the episode. Sometimes the perspective is from that of a disciple, sometimes from that of a person being healed or a bystander observing. The Christmas story is told from the perspective of Shepherds, the crucifixion scene dwells on the perspective of Simon of Cyrene.

This is a book about the fictional life of Maxie Blum. It is a view of the world through the eyes of this fictional character. Maxie comes to the conclusion that he has a messianic role that only he can accomplish, to salvage the world from some indeterminate fate he believes is unacceptable. Marching to the beat of some mysterious inner drummer, he seeks a heroic role that will realize his near divinity. This book details how he copes with the messy realities of an actual life, always searching to find a satisfactory resolution to his dreams. There are women, marriages, and children as well as the travails of the working world. He finds his redemption and salvation not in the physical world that may lead only to small successes of some satisfaction but in the arms of a woman from his youth who haunts his dreams. This work is that love story, how we got there, and what we do then, having arrived in paradise without a crucifixion.

Here I am sitting in my bed, wondering if I should write a book about my life, wondering if I had made the right choices in my life. Sometimes I ask myself: Where would I be or more likely what type of things would I be doing if I had stayed in France? Not because of my choices but when your name is Karima Zarouali, the doors to reality shut in front of you rather than open for opportunities. At this point it's like, should I change my name? Would it be easier for me to book hotels? Could I get a job easily? Well I'm a chef and you would think that getting a job would be easy at any time in France but believe me it wasn't the case so I decided to construct my life around London. Somehow I got stuck between the two countries. France is such a beautiful country with fine food and the air is purified (not in Paris obviously), I call it the breeze and London is the land of opportunity. London is fast and furious; I got caught with their way of living. How would I be living if I had a good childhood? Does it mean I will grow up towards a bad adulthood? What would have happened if I had stayed in France?This book has been my project for quite a while but I wasn't ready and now I feel that the time has come for me to reveal my life to certain persons who would understand better where I am coming from, why I am the way that I am, my temperament, my strengths and weaknesses.Let's begin by where it all began.

Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.

Shirl is a single mother who urges her son's baby-sitter to swat him when he misbehaves. Helena went back to work to get off welfare, then quit to be with her small daughter. Kathy was making good money but got into cocaine and had to give up her two-year-old son during her rehabilitation. Pundits, politicians, and social critics have plenty to say about such women and their behavior. But in this book, for the first time, we hear what these women have to say for themselves. An eye-opening--and heart-rending--account from the front lines of poverty, Through My Own Eyes offers a firsthand look at how single mothers with the slimmest of resources manage from day to day. We witness their struggles to balance work and motherhood and watch as they negotiate a bewildering maze of child-care and social agencies. For three years the authors followed the lives of fourteen women from poor Boston neighborhoods, all of whom had young children and had been receiving welfare intermittently. We learn how these women keep their families on firm footing and try--frequently in vain--to gain ground. We hear how they find child-care and what they expect from it, as well as what the childcare providers have to say about serving low-income families. Holloway and Fuller view these lives in the context of family policy issues touching on the disintegration of inner cities, welfare reform, early childhood and pro-choice poverty programs.

This is a tale, written contemporaneously, of natures power to have a significant, positive, and lasting impact on our world. It begins on a mountaintop in a small village north of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in the summer of 2015. A description of the challenges with which the average person is confronted daily is contrasted with the magical beauty of nature. This beauty shared among people is identified as a catalyst for positive growth in our communities. The pitfalls and benefits of modern life are presented through the prism of two federal election campaigns in Canada and in the United States of America. The elections of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on October 19, 2015, and of President Donald J. Trump on November 8, 2016, are thoroughly discussed. The power of the people, harnessing the beauty of nature to effect change that represents their values, is woven constantly throughout this discussion. The role of the media in helping and hindering the people to achieve this goal of positive change is examined. The objective of this story is to initiate a dialogue between the reader and the author. This dialogue would emphasize how the power of nature when shared can be the impetus for the kind of change in our lives that truly represents our core values.
