The Caleb Quest
Author: Mark Atteberry
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1418514675
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Most of us began our adult lives with ambitious dreams and the energy and determination to make them come true. But somewhere along the way our focus changed-life "happened," and we allowed our dreams to fizzle or even die. Is that the way it has to be? Do dreams come true for "ordinary" people? And if so, what does it take to make them happen? Author Mark Atteberry believes God has answered these questions in the life of Caleb, the boldest dreamer and achiever in all of Scripture. In The Caleb Quest, Atteberry allows us to see that dreams don't come true by accident. On the contrary, fulfilled dreams are the result of clear thinking, strong faith, patience, and hard work. Geared to the everyday Christian, this biblical plan helps readers to test their dreams, identify "dream assassins," get God involved, accept His perfect timing, take action in pursuit of their dreams, and use their dreams to bless others. This inspirational book offers a realistic hope to anyone seeking to make a lifelong dream come true.

Caleb Williams
Author: William Godwin
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191607908
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
'He appears to be persecutor and I the persecuted: is not this difference the mere creature of the imagination?' Caleb is a guileless young servant who enters the employment of Ferdinando Falkland, a cosmopolitan and benevolent country gentleman. Falkland is subject to fits of unexplained melancholy, and Caleb becomes convinced that he harbours a dark secret. His discovery of the truth leads to false accusations against him, and a vengeful pursuit as suspenseful as any thriller. The novel is also a powerful political allegory, inspired by the events of the decade following the French Revolution. This new edition reproduces the original novel of 1794, which captures the raw indignation and sense of injustice felt by victims of British law. It includes the startlingly different manuscript ending, and selected variants in the second and third editions reflecting changes in Godwin's political and philosophical thinking. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Arem’S Portal
Author: Vinod K. Gootam
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1504364724
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
Arems Portal is an insightful journey into a character testing forest of symbolism, foreshadowing, adventure and poetry. It is a modern Hebraic rendering of the classic Indo-Greco kidnap myth. The authors mesmerizing play of time-space sequences and moments of deep pathos make for an original and thought provoking thriller. Notwithstanding a fast paced story, the attention to details within the book are meticulous and artfully presented. The narrative conveys a timely statement about lost female potential in our own imbalanced society. Dynamic interactions with many endearing personalities engage readers with plot twists that include a redemption story and an unconventional exorcism. Arems Portal is a book that is designed to honor the best in all traditions but ultimately makes a lasting statement about established values. Most of the book takes place before the advent of Christianity and therefore utilizes Hebrew Scriptures to supplement the moral examples within the tale. Whether one is looking for a light read, a quick thriller or just a thought provoking adventure, Arems Portal is sure to delight!

Eighteenth-Century Novel and Contemporary Social Issues
Author: Stuart Sim
Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
ISBN: 0748631313
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
This study introduces readers to the eighteenth-century novel through a consideration of contemporary social issues. Eighteenth-century authors grappled with very similar problems to the ones we face today such as: what motivates a fundamentalist terrorist? What are the justifiable limits of state power? What dangers lie in wait for us when we create life artificially?The book discusses key authors from Aphra Behn in the late seventeenth century to James Hogg in the 1820s, covering the 'long' eighteenth century. It guides readers through the main genres of the period from Realism, Gothic romance and historical romance to proto-science fiction. It also introduces a range of debates around race relations, anti-social behaviour, family values and born-again theology as well as the power of the media, surveillance, political sovereignty and fundamentalist terrorism. Each novel is shown to be directly relevant to some of the most urgent moral issues of our own time.

Book Description
The book of Joshua has many inconsistencies and tensions. The author's analysis of the two plots in the book of Joshua challenges the reader to consider the tensions between dogma and life as it was experienced when the book was written. L.

He pays special attention to the dynamic quality of the text and of the act of reading.

In this valuable book, new ground is broken in the study of the book of Joshua.
