Author: Patricia Carrigan
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1698704429
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
“In her debut books The Antiserum Novels, author Patricia Carrigan creates interesting and relatable characters that Stephenie Meyer would be proud of, in an intertwining tale of vampires that spans centuries. The Antiserum Novels is a sexy, fun, and fast-paced series that goes from the innocent teenage drama of high school to a timeless tale of love, lust, and loss. Take the time to sink your teeth into these books – you won’t regret it!” — E.S.Brown, author of VAMPOCALYPSE and CODENAME: SCARLETT In this world, there are people who are born as Genetic Vampires, and those who are turned into what is known as a Bitten Vampire. Unfortunately for Jocelyn, she didn’t know that either of those existed until she Shifted. Now, she’s faced with even bigger problems than getting through high school and college like a normal person - she can read minds, one of the oldest vampires in history is trying to track her down, she can’t stop herself from wanting blood, even when her body doesn’t need it. Worse, a rogue group of Bitten Vampires are trying to end the race of Genetic Vampires all together, and her heart won’t stop getting in the way. All she wants to do is focus on her next meal, but it can’t be that easy right?

Outdoor Learning and Play
Author: Liv Torunn Grindheim
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030725952
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
This Open Access book examines children’s participation in dialectical reciprocity with place-based institutional practices by presenting empirical research from Australia, Brazil, China, Poland, Norway and Wales. Underpinned by cultural-historical theory, the analysis reveals how outdoors and nature form unique conditions for children's play, formal and informal learning and cultural formation. The analysis also surfaces how inequalities exist in societies and communities, which often limit and constrain families' and children's access to and participation in outdoor spaces and nature. The findings highlight how institutional practices are shaped by pedagogical content, teachers' training, institutional regulations and societal perceptions of nature, children and suitable, sustainable education for young children. Due to crises, such as climate change and the recent pandemic, specific focus on the outdoors and nature in cultural formation is timely for the cultural-historical theoretical tradition. In doing so, the book provides empirical and theoretical support for policy makers, researchers, educators and families to enhance, increase and sustain outdoor and nature education.

Treasuring God in Our Traditions
Author: Noël Piper
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 9781433519802
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
God is the treasure of our lives. He is part of everything we do, think, act, and say-literally, he is a part of us. This precious heirloom of Christ himself must be passed on to future generations. But how? Treasuring God in Our Traditions presents the importance of passing along Christ-centered traditions and a Bible-saturated legacy in Christ to future generations. Noël Piper helps her readers recognize how the "everyday" routines of life and the "especially" celebrations of holidays and dates can be practically passed down to future generations. When parents and grandparents seek to pass along the treasure of God to their children and grandchildren, they will develop and deepen their love for him. When family traditions are rooted in the Bible, the next generations will see that the greatest treasure that anyone can have is the treasure of God.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love and The Masterpiece—and “one of [Christian fiction’s] most honored and talented writers” (Library Journal)—comes a heart-wrenching but uplifting story about a highly controversial topic.

Then the unthinkable happens: Dynah’s perfect life is irrevocably changed by a rape that results in an unwanted pregnancy. Her family is torn apart and her seemingly rock-solid faith is pushed to the limits as she faces the most momentous choice of her life: to embrace or to end the life within her. This is ultimately a tale of three women, as Dynah’s plight forces both her mother and her grandmother to confront the choices they made. Written with balance and compassion, The Atonement Child brings a new perspective to a widely debated topic.

Trusting God
Author: Sharon Jaynes
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601423934
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
You don’t have to understand God to trust him. “Just trust me.” Those are the words we often hear in movies just before something bad happens. And yet, we are told to trust God. In a culture where we tend to take control of our own lives, trusting God has become a religious platitude rather than a life-changing attitude. We say it, but do we really mean it? And what does trusting God really look like? Sharon, Mary, and Gwen—the Girlfriends in God ministry team—have been there. They’ve traveled the tough roads of life to discover the peace and power that comes from grabbing the hand of God and trusting his plan. The life stories they share bring laughter and sometimes tears, but always spiritual growth. Each of the 12-week sections concludes with a Bible study guide and journal page, inviting you to lock arms with Sharon, Mary, and Gwen and share with other women in a small group setting or to use individually in your own quiet time.

"What?! Is he part of some Transylvanian Mafia?!" I whispered frantically. This is something I would like to know before I stayed with them. "No, worse." His voice was dark with a mischievous hint. My eyes widened slightly as I leaned towards him, "What?" "He's a vampire." Adrian's voice was rough, with no sense of humor. Sixteen-year-old high school student Jocelyn loves blood; she lives for it. She's a blood addict. But that's not all that's going on in her life. Strange dreams haunt her sleep; she can read minds; and she hears voices in her head. And she discovers that J.B.-her twin sister-and their friends Sadie and Nikki all have similar powers. She learns that all of them a part of a group known as the Genetic Race. But their powers and existence are threatened by another group known as the Others, and their only hope lies in traveling to Transylvania, where they must locate a special blood-filled amulet.
