The Angel Creek Chronicles

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 482
Book Description
When Nora Banks, steps off the train in Angel Creek, Ohio, during the summer of 1892, it is without expectations of any kind. The young woman is penniless, without family, and quite plain in appearance. The job that she has just accepted as a nanny for a young wealthy couple seems to be her only possible refuge. Angel Creek itself is a small but energetic community surrounded by farmland on all sides. Nothing of any consequences has happened there for many years. The one thing that did happen, however, is a source of pride among its residents. Most of the villagers have long ago stopped believing in the Legend of Angel Creek but are loath to admit it and continue to repeat its superstitious content with repetitive relish. Nora finds the home of her employers, Jim and Madeline Turner, to be a pleasant and happy establishment. She soon forms a bond with the little boy in her care and settles down into what should be a simple and boring life. While Nora’s employer, Madeline Turner, is a contented housewife and mother, the same cannot be said for the rest of her family. She is plagued on all sides by women that seem to have issues. Madeline’s mother, Pauline Fairchild, has made it her sole purpose in life to see at least one of her daughters marry into a rich, high-society family. To that purpose, Pauline has begun a campaign to set up a match between Madeline’s younger sister Elyse and the handsome (and very rich) Drew Winthrop, the son of a rich Chicago socialite. Elyse, a very beautiful and pious young lady, compliantly defers to the machinations of her mother despite the fact that she has no real feelings for the young man. Much to her chagrin, Madeline’s life is further complicated by her sister-in-law, Emily Turner, who despite her advanced age of twenty (by village standards), finds the subject of marriage to not only be a bore but, at the moment, out of the question. Emily, a very pretty and intelligent girl, finds the confines of Angel Creek to be inhibiting. Almost every waking moment of her life seems to be devoted to causing scandal to the neighborhood and distress to her relatives. Nora finds herself on the outside looking in during these escapades. As an observer, she does not need to involve herself in the interesting and sometimes strange lives of her employers. It is only when her friend Aileen Griffin finds herself in a distressful predicament that Nora is forced to think about the plight of other women at all. She herself, has been temporarily sheltered from the realities of life by living under the protection of the Turners. Despite the longtime ability of Angel Creek to keep itself separated from the outside influences of the rest of the country, the inevitable finally happens. Technology and change begin to gradually seep into the little community. The beginning of this evolution begins with the arrival of two very different strangers. One is a Jewish lawyer named Jacob Rothstein. Jacob is an attractive and very intelligent man with a mysterious past. Since no person of the Jewish faith has ever lived in Angel Creek, he automatically becomes a curiosity of sorts. The gentleman further confuses the general population by admitting publicly that he does not believe in God at all—something that is an affront to everyone in the village with religious sensibilities. The second man is Douglas Parnell. Douglas is a very poor but extremely industrious drifter. When he arrives in Angel Creek, simply because he’s run out of money, the young man decides to stay. Despite what seems to be Angel Creek’s ability to hold itself aloof from the rest of the country, it is unable to avoid the political tremors that have engulfed the rest of the country. The depression of 1893 and the Spanish American War both begin to intrude into the lives of the villagers. As for Nora, during her employment with the Turners, she has managed to unintentionally become very close to the entire family. As a result, their tragedies and occasional di

Book Description
Dive into the heart-pounding world of Angel's Magic, where darkness lurks in every shadow and love ignites in the most unexpected places. My name is Rumor, and I slay monsters for a living. Vampires, demons, you name it—I've sent them all back to hell. It's a bloody, lonely life, but it's mine. Or it was, until Jonah crashed into my world with smoldering eyes that burned right through me. But I can't afford distractions. Not when I'm so close to my ultimate goal: joining the Legion of Angels. They're the elite, the best of the best, taking on the darkest evils you can imagine. The path to joining them? It's a nightmare that'll force me to face monsters I never knew existed—including the ones inside myself. Now, as all hell breaks loose in the supernatural world, I'm standing on the edge of a knife. Do I have what it takes to save those who can't save themselves? And Jonah... can I let him in, knowing it might cost us everything? This is my story. It's full of teeth, claws, and things that go bump in the night. It's about fighting for what's right, even when it feels impossible. And yeah, maybe it's about love too— the kind that hits you like a freight train and changes everything. So, are you ready? Because once you step into my world, there's no going back. The fate of two realms is at stake, and I'm about to spread my wings and fly straight into the fire. Care to join me?

Hospitality as Holiness
Author: Luke Bretherton
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9780754653721
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
We live amid increasing ethical plurality and fragmentation while at the same time more and more questions of moral gravity confront us. Some of these questions are new, such as those around human cloning and genetics. Other questions that were previously settled have re-emerged, such as those around the place of religion in politics. Responses to such questions are diverse, numerous and often vehemently contested. Hospitality as Holiness seeks to address the underlying question facing the church within contemporary moral debates: how should Christians relate to their neighbours when ethical disputes arise? The problems the book examines centre on what the nature and basis of Christian moral thought and action is, and in the contemporary context, whether moral disputes may be resolved with those who do not share the same framework as Christians. Bretherton establishes a model - that of hospitality - for how Christians and non-Christians can relate to each other amid moral diversity. relationship between reason, tradition, natural law and revelation in theology, and more specifically to those engaged with questions about plurality, tolerance and ethical conflict in Christian ethics and medical ethics.
