Book Description
Throughout its history, the United States has experienced some outstanding periods that are unparalleled by any other nation. Such times of greatness have been achieved when this country most closely adhered to the faith-based morality intended by our founding fathers. A faith-based morality requires a belief that all humans receive their freedoms and unalienable rights from a Supreme Creator. That belief led to the formation of this nation. Greatness is achieved when government does most to extend such freedoms and rights to its own citizens and to all peoples of the world. Since the discovery of this nation by Columbus in 1492, the United States has been through periods of time that have been extraordinary in the results it has achieved for the rights of all human beings. In this book, the greatest moments of this country are compared to the morality the government followed during such periods

How to Pray When You're Pissed at God
Author: Ian Punnett
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 0307986047
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
When things really go wrong, what do you do with the feeling that God is to blame? A popular Coast to Coast radio host (and Episcopal clergy) provides some answers. In a first of its kind book, Ian Punnett provides a spiritual path for expressing your rawest emotions through prayer and how to rebuild a relationship with one's higher power--or anybody else in your life. In this important and practical book, Ian Punnett provides insight on feeling anger and resentment toward God and offers advice on how to deal with the pain and blame that accompanies these emotions. In a book that is edgy, timely, funny and compassionate, Punnett presents real help in everyday language for transforming the negativity of anger into a positive and useful force that will ultimately help us pray more effectively, bring us closer to God, enhance our spiritual relationship, and change the way we live and love others. After a divorce, a broken friendship, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job or even the accumulation of all the tiny cracks in our spirit from life's disappointments, it’s easy to feel pissed at God. When anger is left unchecked, it is harmful to our minds, bodies and souls. “How to Pray When You’re Pissed at God is not “the last word” on angry prayer,” Punnett writes, “but it might be the first words you have ever heard on the topic. By the end of the book, it is my hope that you’ll understand the role of anger in our lives, the benefit of honest prayer, and the need for honest, angry prayer in the lives of the faithful and faithless.”
