The Holy Road
Author: Michael Blake
Publisher: Random House

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Dances With Wolves has become a modern classic, with nearly two million copies sold to date. The 1990 film adaptation won seven Academy Awards. In The Holy Road—itself the subject of a headline-making Hollywood film deal—master storyteller Michael Blake at long last continues the saga. Eleven years have passed since Lieutenant John Dunbar became the Comanche warrior Dances With Wolves and married Stands With A Fist, a white-born woman raised as a Comanche from early childhood. With their three children, they live peacefully in the village of Ten Bears. But there is unease in the air, caused by increased reports of violent confrontations with white soldiers, who want to drive the Comanches onto reservations—a movement symbolized by the railroad, the white man’s holy road. Disquiet turns to horror, and then to rage, when a band of white rangers descends on the Comanche village, slaughtering half its inhabitants and abducting Stands With A Fist and her infant daughter. The three great surviving warriors—Wind In His Hair, Kicking Bird, and Dances With Wolves—decide they must go to war with the white invaders. At the same time, Dances With Wolves realizes that only he can move unnoticed among the white men, to rescue his wife and child.

Book Description
Some men can never be tamed... Horse whisperer Abby Macready's love for animals runs as deep in her blood as her Native American heritage. If she were even half as good at reading men, she'd...well, she'd probably still be fantasizing about her best friend's big brother, Wolf Olsen. Playboy, cowboy, and breaker of Abby's teenage heart. Staying on top of the rodeo circuit means that Wolf has to stay focused and never settle down. He certainly wasn't expecting to return to the Flathead Valley to find Abby's flashing dark eyes and a backside that could bring a man to his knees. But his sister's best friend is definitely off-limits...even if Abby's soothing touch has a completely different effect on Wolf. But this wild cowboy can't let one sweet whisperer tame him...

Lambs Dancing with Wolves
Author: Michael Griffiths
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781854245052
Category : Leadership
Languages : en
Pages : 379
Book Description
Our screens are full of science fiction encounters with aliens. But a far more accessible adventure lies at our doorsteps: reaching out with the Gospel to those of other cultures. The privilege of crossing cultural boundaries, and encountering people whose ways of thinking, language and customs differ radically from our own, is a source of excitement. It also presents traps and sometimes threats. Yet to remain monocultural is to impoverish oneself and to leave vast areas of our potential memory banks as empty vaults. God's command is to spread the love and good news of Jesus to all people. Dr Griffiths' title is based on Jesus's instruction to his disciples in Luke 10 I am sending you out like lambs in the midst of wolves. Christ does not send his lambs - us - out to live among wolves to destroy them or to be destroyed, but rather to bond with them and win them over. This comprehensive manual includes chapters on language, empathy, culture shock, appreciating wolf culture, presenting the Gospel, leadership, marriage and singleness, quality of life and much more.
