So she’s stuck on the road to Twilight with upright, uptight Remington Lockhart in the driver’s seat.

The Back-Up Plan

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
At 27 years old, I found myself with a broken down marriage and two children under two to raise on my own. I had no other option than to survive. Nah, scratch that, I needed to thrive. But where would I begin? I wasn't sure if I knew how to live alone, let alone how to boss it solo with a couple of kids in tow. It's been a hell of a journey signposted with dating fails, money worries and ex-husband woes, but when was a Back-up Plan ever straightforward? This book is the one I needed to read in the lonely 3am darkness of an unfixable marriage, lying next to a man I was sure I didn't want to be tied to anymore but whom I was too scared to leave. This book is the one I needed to read when I picked up my first packet of anti-depressants and read Elizabeth Wurtzel's Prozac Nation to feel off-the-cuff and cool (but just felt more depressed). This book is the one I needed to read in the infinitely long days that stretched ahead of me alone with two infants, minimal sleep and no hope. This book is the one I needed to read when shamefully I carted my two toddlers to Boots to pick up my very first Morning After Pill after my very first One Night Stand. This book is the I needed to read when my world was about to fall apart.

Fierce Marriage
Author: Ryan Frederick
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493412779
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

Grace Is Not God's Backup Plan
Author: Adam S. Miller
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781508647768
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
What follows is not a translation in the ordinary sense of the word. It's more like a paraphrase. Rather than worry over the letter of the text, the goal has been to illuminate the large scale patterns that structure it. The King James Version, for instance, renders Paul's letter with uncanny beauty but is opaque as an argument. Modern translations tend to have the same problem. Their overriding concern is with the letter of the text, not with its logic. As a result, Paul's forest is always getting sacrificed for the sake of his trees. But Paul's work is too important, his good news too urgent, to leave so much of him locked in the first century. We need our renderings to do more than mimic the original, we need them to bleed and breathe. This work argues that the deep logic of Romans comes into sharp focus around a single premise: Paul's claim that grace is not God's backup plan. Paul never quite puts it like this, but he implies it at every turn.

Pages : 182
Book Description
D-Day, June 6, 1944 Months were spent planning an invasion. An invasion that would either be the beginning of victory or the beginning of defeat. But if it turned out to be the latter? A small group of Canadians were waiting at the north coast of Germany. Waiting in case the invasion failed. In possession of orders containing the words "You may be our last hope." They were the Backup Plan. Doc Beege led a team of researchers at the University of Toronto. When their research yielded a new deadly weapon, the government and military jumped at the opportunity and arranged for Doc Beege and his associates to be in Germany to hand the weapon over to the underground forces. But the government and military had a different plans - plans which could make Doc Beege and his associates the worst war criminals in history. With D-Day fast approaching, Doc Beege's team was sent on the biggest adventure of their lives, to ensure the tide of war turned in the Allies favour. This is a fictional account of an absolutely true Canadian achievement in World War II. The book parallels some of the actual events which occurred at the University of Toronto in the early 1940's. These events revolved around research work done by Dr. James T. Burt-Gerrans, PhD, (the grandfather of the author) and the NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED chemical discovery made by his team. The book includes a brief description of the actual chemical discovery, probably the only weapon of mass destruction developed in Canada, and the events surrounding its disposition based on input from both Einstein and Churchill.
