Book Description
Lydia's husband was meant to be her lover and protector, but she ended up seeking protection from him. Marrying Richard, a future pastor had thrown Lydia into ten secretly anguishing years of abuse, deception, depression and almost into insanity. Only she knew of his affairs, his addiction to pornography and love of money, but even the mention of spousal abuse and infidelity was taboo and she was silenced to submit to her husband-whatever the circumstance. Her will to live began to hang by a thread, and as a Christian, Lydia had to choose between her marriage or her life. For her, home became a battlefield and her mind became a monster. She was left battered...was the Bible her only way out?

The Battered Shield of Faith

Pages : 228
Book Description
This book is the result of a journey. You could think of it as a biography of sorts. It is the result of an odyssey into the very heart of hell itself, where the skeptics and critics rule as kings. There the hard questions were asked. Harsh discoveries were made and the uneasy truth found. The truth of the skeptic mindset was unearthed and the reality of the Christian mind was established. It is the experiences gained from this odyssey that I present to you now. My greatest hope is that your faith may be strengthened by my experiences.

Konfidenz
Author: Ariel Dorfman
Publisher: Dalkey Archive Press
ISBN: 9781564782939
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
Told almost exclusively through dialogue, Konfidenz opens with a woman entering a hotel room and receiving a call from a mysterious stranger who seems to know everything about her and the reasons why she has fled her homeland. Over the next nine hours he tells her many disturbing things about her lover (who may be in great danger), the political situation in which they are enmeshed, and his fantasies of her. A terse political allegory that challenges our assumptions about character, the foundations of our knowledge, and the making of history, Konfidenz draws the reader into a postmodern mystery where nothing--including the text itself--is what it seems.
