Book Description
This is the fourth book in the adventures of Admiral Sir Geoffrey Cockburn RN. In this volume, however, we go back in time to when 'Cocky' Cockburn was a mere Lieutenant during the cold War of the 1950s. While serving in the aircraft carrier HMS Cerberus, he becomes friends with another Lieutenant, a Fleet Air Arm Observer called David Phillips. After being kidnapped and freed during a Far East cruise, Cocky becomes a secret agent spying on the Russians. The story moves rapidly from Gibraltar, Malta, Singapore and Australia and thence to Japan with many twists and turns all the way. Readers of the three previous books in this series will be delighted to find how the mature Admiral reacted to danger when he was a young and relatively inexperienced naval officer.

In His Image
Author: Michael J. Wilkins
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532685815
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
"A Disciple...will be like his teacher." (Luke 6:40) What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? The ultimate goal of discipleship is to be like the Teacher--to be like Jesus Himself. Every Christian wants to understand what that means. But even if we understand it, is it possible? Michael Wilkins asserts that it's not only possible, it's a life that all Christians are called to--not just a select few. So why do we so seldom experience it? As Wilkins points out, even the first followers of Jesus had a hard time grasping what it meant to be His disciples. Like them, our difficulty often lies in not clearly understanding who Jesus is, not recognizing the resources available to us as God's children, or not believing who we are to be as Christ's followers. But like the early disciples, our lives can radically change. If we want to follow Jesus, we can become like Him. "Jesus takes us exactly as He finds us," writes Wilkins, "and transforms us into His likeness." So come, learn what it means to walk with Jesus and reflect His image to the real world.

Television and the Self
Author: Kathleen M. Ryan
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739179586
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Sitting prominently at the hearth of our homes, television serves as a voice of our modern time. Given our media-saturated society and television’s prominent voice and place in the home, it is likely we learn about our society and selves through these stories. These narratives are not simply entertainment, but powerful socializing agents that shape and reflect the world and our role in it. Television and the Self: Knowledge, Identity, and Media Representation brings together a diverse group of scholars to investigate the role television plays in shaping our understanding of self and family. This edited collection’s rich and diverse research demonstrates how television plays an important role in negotiating self, and goes far beyond the treacly “very special” episodes found in family sit-coms in the 1980s. Instead, the authors show how television reflects our reality and helps us to sort out what it means to be a twenty-first-century man or woman.
