This is the spellbinding chronicle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ religious dawning and their beginning in the idyllic woods of New York state. It then follows their most challenging odyssey as they are driven out of their homes by great cruelty from four different states, and then finally completely out of the union itself. In the middle of the winter, women, children, and men were forced to cross the frozen Mississippi and head for their new home in the rocky mountains of Utah. After a year and a half of many trials on the trail, they finally made it to the great basin and settled alongside the Great Salt Lake to build a city. Fifty years later Utah became a most beautiful state of the union.

_________________________ THE ESSENTIAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE SECOND MAN ON THE MOON _________________________ 'Thrilling ... years on, the raw facts of the adventure remain beguiling and the bravery of the astronauts compelling' - SUNDAY TIMES 'Exciting and moving' - DAILY EXPRESS _________________________ Buzz Aldrin, one of the three men who took part in the first moon landing in 1969, is a true American hero. Magnificent Desolation begins with the story of his voyage into space, which came within seconds of failure, and reveals a fascinating insider's view of the American space programme. But that thrilling adventure was only the beginning, as Aldrin battled with his own desolation in the form of depression and alcoholism. This epic journey encompasses the brutally honest tale of Aldrin's self-destruction, and the redemption that came through finding love when hope seemed lost. _________________________ 'Buzz Aldrin might not have been the first man to walk on the Moon, but of all the astronauts to have been there, none of them has articulated their predicament with quite such wisdom and sensitivity' - MAIL ON SUNDAY

Matthew's Gospel reveals little about the three wealthy visitors said to have presented gifts to the infant Jesus. Yet hundreds of generations of Christians have embellished that image of the Three Kings or Magi for a myriad of social and political as well as spiritual purposes. Here Richard Trexler closely examines how this story has been interpreted and used throughout the centuries. Biblically, the Journey of the Magi presents a positive image of worldly power, depicting the faithful in progress toward their God and conveying the importance of the gift-giving laity as legitimators of their deity. With this in mind, Trexler explains in particular how Western societies have molded the story to describe and augment their own power--before the infant God and among themselves. The author demonstrates how the magi as a group functioned in Christian society. For example, magi plays, processions, and images taught people how to pray and behave in reverential contexts; they featured monarchs and heads of republics who enacted the roles of the magi to legitimate their rule; and they constrained native Americans to fall in line behind the magi to instill in them loyalty toward the European world order. However, Trexler also shows these philosopher-kings as competitive among each other, as were groups of different ages, races, and genders in society at large. Originally modeled on representations of the Roman triumphs, the magi have reached the present day as street children wearing crowns of cardboard, proving again the universality of the image for constructing, reinforcing, and even challenging a social hierarchy. Originally published in 1997. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Encouragement for the Day: Messages of Inspiration and Challenge expands on the messages Pastor Charles Allard delivered on three North Carolina radio stations in the 1980s and 1990s. The popular daily messages of encouragement were broadcast at random times reaching a wide audience of listeners. High school students riding buses were known to hush their classmates to hear the messages. One listener even called Allard at 1:30 a.m. to tell him that he had just heard one of his messages and that was in a place he should not be—and wanted to turn his life over to Jesus. Topics featured include setting priorities, finding your purpose, giving glory to God, hearing the Lord speak, being patient, counting your blessings, focusing on what matters, and taking responsibility for your actions. Written for daily meditation, prayer, and spiritual growth, the devotional will help you overcome everyday struggles, encourage others to walk with the Lord, and look to Christ for help, strength, and salvation. Hebrews 10:24-25 NIV let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching: SPECIAL INCLUSION: A complete guide for home Advent celebration with family and friends.
