Cafeteria for the Soul
Author: Stephanie Bender-Leggett
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1619962659
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Almost everyone in the country has a Bible somewhere in the house. However, few have ever read it. Many -- Christians as well as non-Christians -- misunderstand Christianity because they fail to feast from the cafeteria for the soul, the Bible. Christianity is not just a religion. It is a love relationship with Jesus Christ and one another. The Bible provides the spiritual food to nourish those relationships and make them meaningful. We cannot truly know Jesus and surrender our lives to Him if we do not know what He expects of us. We do not have to stumble through life wondering if we are doing the right thing. We have an instruction manual that teaches all we need to know to live lives pleasing to God. However, unless we read it and learn what the will of God is, we will stumble and fall. The hope is that after reading Cafeteria for the Soul the reader will hunger and thirst for a life that glorifies God and will pick up the Bible to find out how to attain a deeply spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ. The author, reared an atheist, is a mid-life Christian convert who hopes to help others avoid the pitfalls of life she encountered without the benefit of the Holy Spirit and the spiritual nourishment offered in the cafeteria for the soul, The Bible. After working in the world of business for twenty-five years and seeing the sin and corruption that tarnishes so many lives, including her own, she went back to school to learn how to study the Bible, apply it to her life, and share it with others. After twenty-five years of constant study the Lord said, "Okay, now let's write a book that will encourage others to do what you did".

D-Day 1944 - Air Power Over The Normandy Beaches And Beyond [Illustrated Edition]
Author: Richard P. Hallion
Publisher: Pickle Partners Publishing
ISBN: 1782898875
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Includes over 12 photos and maps of the Overlord Operations Operation Overlord, the Normandy invasion-like William the Conqueror's before it or the Inchon landing afterwards-will long be studied as a classic in military planning, logistics, and operations. OVERLORD depended to a remarkable degree upon the use of air power in virtually all its forms. A half-century ago, aircraft were primitive vehicles of war compared to the modern attackers of the Gulf War era, with their precision weapons, advanced navigational, sensor systems, and communications. Yet, the airplane still had a profound impact upon the success of the invasion. Simply stated, without air power, Normandy would have been impossible.
