Book Description
What is the most famous event in the history of the world? For millions of people, the answer is the birth, life and death of Jesus Christ. The coming of God's human son. Even non-believers have heard the story countless times, and somewhere in the darkest corners of their mind, they too, wonder, what if? What if it happened again? Today? What if God sent another son to the world once again to be raised by good and honorable people, living average lives? Would anyone believe it? And even if they did, how would they react? Would they rejoice, or cower in fear? Would they come to worship the modern-day savior, or would they come, as some did before, to destroy him? Against the backdrop of modern American culture, this is the story of Isaac, the unexpected son of Melanie Russel, a schoolteacher, and her husband Jack, a gifted physician. Good people, living average lives until the fate of the world is suddenly bestowed upon them in the form of a very special son. But just as it did more than 2000 years ago, this story involves much more than the Holy Child and the incredible task assigned to him by the creator. It also deals with the tremendous burden placed on Isaac's parents, their friends and loved ones, and even the unknown protectors who for different reasons step forward to care for the earthly Son of God. Of course, this is also the story of Isaac, the brave, isolated child who is sent into the lion’s den to live, love, learn, and mature, and who is eventually asked to return to his true Father and report on the waning condition of the human spirit. But more than anything, this is the story of simple people, committed and willing to sacrifice everything, in order to love and nurture a not-so-simple child. Why? Because they believe. Because they were chosen.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
In the spring of 1982, 68-year-old George Griffiths sailed solo from Britain to Barbados, where he was met by his two sons. The younger son, Mark, joined his father to sail home to Canada by way of the Panama Canal and up the Pacific coast. Mark's older brother, Blair, flew home to begin work as a CBC cameraman documenting the Canadian Mount Everest Expedition Team, with its 26 climbers, 30 Sherpas and more than 200 porters. Six months later, Blair Griffiths was dead, crushed by a six-storey wall of Everest ice. Through heroic efforts the team finally managed to recover Blair's remains, and there followed a heartbreaking cremation on a pyre of rhododendron boughs. Eventually two of the team succeeded in summiting the mountain. In 1985, George Griffiths trekked with his grandson to Everest Base Camp, where Blair's ashes were laid, in order to say goodbye. In this place of awe and majesty among mountains and sky, father and adventurer found peace. Written from taped accounts, diaries, letters and reports, Morning Light: Triumph at Sea & Tragedy on Everest is a poignant saga of adventure and high emotion that celebrates the human spirit and its need to explore.

Love's Ellipsis

Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1665564423
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 437
Book Description
I’ve called my book of poetry, Love’s Ellipsis! The Way to Wisdom! And, for reasons which I hope will become apparent. I’ve found that the Profound in life is often separated from the Ridiculous by only three dots. What a statement three little dots can make!. As you read, be on the lookout for the curious Ellipsis! It’s been used with intentionality! This collection contains a little bit of everything, and a lot of something for everyone. The cover proclaims that it is Poetry to be Shared, and that is my intention. Please feel free to share any or all of it (with attribution, of course) without asking or seeking specific or individual permission from my publisher or me. For example: I’ve written a Poem called Tinker Toys and Fiddlesticks, a tribute to both Spring Fever and my good friends, Jeannie and Brandt Stickel (page 128). If you would like to send that poem to a friend, relative, enemy or otherwise, simply change the names, attribute the poem to me, then just do it. That’s exactly what I did when I changed Stickel to Kellett in the last line of the poem, modified it accordingly, and then sent it to my good friends, Dan, Becky, and their daughter, Jordain, plus their three boys, my “adopted” sons, Kieran, Cael and Jase, my, “My First Family Not Named Claybrook.” I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Cathy Rowbottom, my colleague at the Mendocino Beacon and Fort Bragg Advocate-News. When she retired, I replaced her and we’ve traded puns ever since. She wrote the poem below for me very recently, but didn’t give it a name. She then gave it to me in jest I did the rest; but, I named it, My Replacement! Things like this keep me humble! With friends like Cathy, a man doesn’t need many! A special few will do!
