Book Description
The novel tells the story of Mark Travers and his search for redemption after a fall from grace. It is a contemporary retelling of a classic theme: man's search for the Holy Grail and the answer to the age–old question, "Whom does the Grail serve?" Once a respected reporter for The Journal, Mark departs the city in a self–imposed exile after committing the one unpardonable sin that City Room boss Dave Larsen could never tolerate. Mark gets caught up in a web of deceit, manipulated by the notorious crime boss, Lucky Luciano, to do his bidding in the pages of The Journal. Mark is destined to find the redemption he seeks among the good people of Harlan, Iowa, and in the person of a humble boy dying of leukemia. There he finds the answer to his modern–day version of the age–old quest, "Whom does The Journal serve?"

On the Soul and Its Origin
Author: Saint Augustine
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781514267462
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Augustine, the man with upturned eye, with pen in the left hand, and a burning heart in the right (as he is usually represented), is a philosophical and theological genius of the first order, towering like a pyramid above his age, and looking down commandingly upon succeeding centuries. He had a mind uncommonly fertile and deep, bold and soaring; and with it, what is better, a heart full of Christian love and humility. He stands of right by the side of the greatest philosophers of antiquity and of modern times. We meet him alike on the broad highways and the narrow footpaths, on the giddy Alpine heights and in the awful depths of speculation, wherever philosophical thinkers before him or after him have trod. As a theologian he is facile princeps, at least surpassed by no church father, schoolman, or reformer. With royal munificence he scattered ideas in passing, which have set in mighty motion other lands and later times. He combined the creative power of Tertullian with the churchly spirit of Cyprian, the speculative intellect of the Greek church with the practical tact of the Latin. He was a Christian philosopher and a philosophical theologian to the full.
