The Happy Man Lied: A Tale of Trial, Truth and Transformation
Author: Floyd W. Mackler
Publisher: PublishAmerica
ISBN: 1456063804
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
If you could but see it, nearly everything about the way human culture treats sex is expressive of fear. If sex were a child, it would be the most battered and brutalized child in the universe. In its genuine spiritual or authentic character, sex is repressed, suppressed, denied, covered up, legislated, caged, and not allowed to see the light of day; while, at the same time, in its institutionalized and public expressions it is distorted, exploited, ridiculed, flagrantly flashed in everyone's face and paraded through the streets. This book is the narration of a young man who died of AIDS in the early 1990's. It is a graphic description of his homosexual drives and engagements. Then it turns to his personal encounter with the Grace of God. That is followed by his ongoing transformation and a prophetic ministry from God through him. Can it ""aid"" the reader to wake-up to the power of the Risen One that resides within those that believe?

Category : Biography & Autobiography

Pages : 287
Book Description
The book is a differentiated biography of former Indian skipper M S Dhoni that celebrates the total journey of the individual as a cricketer through various assorted articles that have been meticulously curated by the author. The author further draws marketing parallels in this book as he compares to Dhoni with a brand that has an inspiring and engaging story to tell and that needs to be shared. Although there are a number of biographies on Dhoni in the market, this book is very different in its approach and treatment and it surely reflects the unputdownable fan spirit of the author for the man who is the cynosure of this book. A truly interesting read for anyone who loves the game of cricket and has been mesmerized by Dhoni's aura time and again on and off the field.
