Book Description
DARK VALLEY .and Beyond is the story of a journey through traumatic grief. When the great love of her life was taken, deep grief was compounded by the testing of her faith. The very foundations of life seemed to be swept away. Yet the faithful Shepherd, though hidden for a time, held her through the storm, sent help when needed, and "restored her soul." This is a record of God's faithfulness "though I walk through the Valley of the shadow of death..." It is a record of pain and struggle leading to healing, hope and purpose. The author grew up in a small village nestled in a farming community. It was there, as a child, that she met God. After high-school she attended a Bible College where she came to know, respect, then to love a young man who also worshiped the Lord. She taught school for a short time, then they married and together raised four children. The relationship with her earthly love, shared for more than half a century, was recognized both by herself and others as uniquely precious, a gift from the very hand of God. When death tore them apart, grief struck like a tsunami; the storm of dark, excruciating anguish nearly destroyed her. But God, though for a time unseen in those shadows, held her close and brought her through-changed, still acutely aware of deep loss-but trusting the purpose of the Almighty, the deepest Love of her life.

Book Description
Based on a best-selling documentary film of the same name, this books presents the “Law of Attraction,” which, according to the tagline, “has traveled through centuries to reach you.” By synthesizing “how to get rich” ideas from classic self-help books by Wallace D. Wattles (The Science of Getting Rich), Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich!), and Charles Haanel (The Master Key System) with twenty-five modern-day self-improvement gurus like Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, Michael Bernard Beckwith, James Ray, Lisa Nichols, and Joe Vitale, author Rhonda Byrne and her team have created an almost alchemically rich and compelling promise. They claim that “The Secret” was discovered by such historical luminaries as Plato, da Vinci, Galileo, Napoleon, Hugo, Beethoven, Newton, Edison, and Einstein/ that “The Secret” has existed in fragments in religions, philosophies, and oral traditions for centuries . . . but only now has it all been put together. “The Secret is everything you have dreamed of . . . and is beyond your wildest dreams,” trumpet the marketing materials. Could it really be true, or is it just a new spin on the very old (and decidedly not secret) “the power of positive thinking” wedded to “ask and you shall receive”? Alexandra Bruce goes behind the scenes to investigate the phenomenon, from its roots in Australia to the sales bonanza that has seen creator Rhonda Byrne become the most successful debut author in memory. Bruce takes a hard but fair look at the “teachers” featured in The Secret and the “Law of Attraction” that is the central theme. To truly understand the significance of The Secret, perspective is needed. Beyond The Secret delivers that and much more.

Book Description
Wasting a dream is like wasting a life, and a life without a dream is a hopeless one. We don't dream to attract attention or recognition; to be applauded by families and well-wishers. We do dream because our lives are dependent on it. 'Real dreamers' never quit, even when it seems like giving up. They are aware of the fact that the dreams they possess are tried and tested. They comprehend that without the hurdles, these dreams fail to survive the test of time. No man prays for his dreams to be opposed; but the fact still remains: It's inevitable. 'Literal dreamers' only imagine and assume. They paint the maginified pictures of their lives but never strive to make them happen. ‘Real dreamers’ never deal with assumptions; they believe and act. One thing is to dream, and another, to act on it to make it a reality. It's biblically written that faith without work is dead. A dream without an effort hits the rock. So therefore, keep your aspirations alive with the right nutrients. As long as you can breath, your 'dreams' can breathe also. «Living Beyond Your Dream World» is a book which will energize your body, soul and spirit to be part of the 'Dream Census'; thus, making the dream alive. DIG DEEPER! DREAM BIGGER!! IT’S YOUR TIME TO SHINE!!!

Book Description
Bruce Wilkinson's best-selling book, 'The Prayer of Jabez, ' is so popular with Evangelicals it just had to be bad. Wilkinson told us to be gimpers for God; Jones shows us how to be kippers for God. In this parody the conservative Christian author allows humor to reveal the more ridiculous assumptions driving the original book. Each chapter of the original is turned inside out so that we can really see what's being said. Though the parody is rather ruthless in its humor, it is not hopelessly cynical just for the sake of mockery. It points to a more constructive vision, a vision of Christianity's inherent riches of truth, beauty, and goodness that the original Jabez book passively trivializes. Get this parody for the laughs; get it for something greater.

Book Description
Coleman Dowell's "Southern Gothic" is a novel about sexual repression. Miss Ethel, a spinster school teacher, decides to write what she calls a "perverse tale" about one of her former students, a Kentucky farmer named Jim Cummins. Endowing him with unnaturally large genitals, she spins a tawdry tale of his frustrated relationship with his petite wife. Expressing all the bitterness of "an old woman's revenge," Miss Ethel's tale is nonetheless a sensitive depiction of rural life in the early years of World War II. Dowell's masterful use of the tale-within-a-tale to explore psychological states makes Too Much Flesh and Jabez a memorable achievement.
