Book Description
Intriguing rumors of a revolutionary teacher, Jesus of Nazareth, had reached the ears of Malachi the merchant. A great prophet, said some. Mighty healer, others claimed. Some called Him "The Promised One." They told how He fed thousands with a single basket of food. Even raised the dead. Legends and folk tales, probably. But Malachi had to know. His policy was "Show me the goods before I buy the merchandise." He had to get to the bottom of it all. Eyewitnesses. That's what he needed. So he went looking in Jerusalem and found them -- men and women who had met Jesus. The Rabbi. The captain of the guard. Lazarus. The tax commissioner. The tortured thief. Even the risen Rahab. Their incredible reports made him all the more determined to find Jesus. With skillful dialogue and sanctified imagination, based on historical research, Bradley Booth paints a fresh portrait of Jesus through the eyes of those who met Him, and inspires us to adore Him anew.

Book Description
A man dies in hospital from cardiac arrest. After thirty minutes of clinical death, a phone call to Joao de Deus (John of God), hundreds of miles away in central Brazil, raises the man from death, completely healed, verified by his doctors.

When people, totally paralyzed, rise from their wheelchairs and the profoundly blind have their eyesight restored, when modern medicine has given up on them, one feels deeply stirred to ask some fundamental questions. Joao de Deus puts our reality at risk, defying the certainties of medical science, forcing us to replace it with one of hope and joy. The story of Joao de Deus shakes the bedrock of common beliefs, kindling an ancient memory that ring only too true; that with love all things are possible.

Pages : 338
Book Description
“A hilarious, endearing novel.”—Los Angeles Times In Fannie Flagg’s high-spirited first novel, we meet Daisy Fay Harper in the spring of 1952, where she’s “not doing much except sitting around waiting for the sixth grade.” When she leaves Shell Beach, Mississippi, in September 1959, she is packed up and ready for the Miss America Pageant, vowing “I won’t come back until I’m somebody.” But in our hearts she already is. Sassy and irreverent from the get-go, Daisy Fay takes us on a rollicking journey through her formative years on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. There, at The End of the Road of the South, the family malt shop freezer holds unspeakable things, society maven Mrs. Dot hosts Junior Debutante meetings and shares inspired thoughts for the week (such as “sincerity is as valuable as radium”), and Daisy Fay’s Daddy hatches a quick-cash scheme that involves resurrecting his daughter from the dead in a carefully orchestrated miracle. Along the way, Daisy Fay does a lot of growing up, emerging as one of the most hilarious, appealing, and prized characters in modern fiction. Praise for Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man “Sheer unbeatable entertainment.”—Cosmopolitan “Unforgettable and irresistible.”—Chattanooga Free Press “Side-splittingly funny.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer

The Man Behind the Miracle
Author: Madeline Hartmann

ISBN: 9781882897407
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Miracle after miracle, Alfred Boeddeker saw the equivalent of five loaves and two fishes multiplied many times over through the ministry of the St. Anthony Dining Room in downtown San Francisco. This is the story of a man who brought dignity, meaning, and hope to those hurting people. He faithfully followed his calling in a ministry of over fifty years. This is a story of lives turned around, of rebuilding and the successes of those who returned to family and home, of men and women contributing anew to community and society. Hartmann fills page after page with stories of ministry and miracle detailing the life of Alfred Boeddeker. This story should be read by Catholics, Protestants, and non-sectarians alike. It's a book that should be in school and public libraries. It should be required reading for the politician, the philanthropist, and the pauper. It is a highly motivating example of a man who lived with and fulfilled a high calling and purpose.

The Miracle Braves of 1914
Author: Bob Brady

Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
Long before the Red Sox "Impossible Dream" season, Boston’s now nearly forgotten “other” team, the 1914 Boston Braves, performed a baseball “miracle” that resounds to this very day. The "Miracle Braves" were Boston's first "worst-to-first" winners of the World Series. Shortly after the turn of the previous century, the once mighty Braves had become a perennial member of the National League’s second division. Preseason pundits didn't believe the 1914 team posed a meaningful threat to John McGraw’s powerful New York Giants. During the first half of that campaign, Boston lived down to such expectations, taking up residence in the league’s basement. Refusing to throw in the towel at the midseason mark, their leader, the pugnacious George Stallings, deftly manipulated his daily lineup and pitching staff to engineer a remarkable second-half climb in the standings all the way to first place. The team’s winning momentum carried into the postseason, where the Braves swept Connie Mack's heralded Athletics and claimed the only World Championship ever won by Boston’s National League entry. And for 100 years, the management, players, and fans of underperforming ball clubs have turned to the Miracle Braves to catch a glimmer of hope that such a midseason turnaround could be repeated. Through the collaborative efforts of a band of dedicated members of the Society for American Baseball Research, this benchmark accomplishment is richly revealed to the reader in The Miracle Braves of 1914: Boston's Original Worst-to-First World Series Champions. The essence of the “miracle” is captured through a comprehensive compendium of incisive biographies of the players and other figures associated with the team, with additional relevant research pieces on the season. After a journey through the pages of this book, the die-hard baseball fan will better understand why the call to “Wait Until Next Year” should never be voiced prematurely.
