Book Description
A crisis of faith! By the year 2075 most of the western world has converted to the religion of the Church of the Second Coming. From its humble beginnings, as the figure of Christ began to appear all around the globe, the Church has grown to achieve absolute world power. But rumors surround the Church of the Second Coming, and hint, like so many regimes before it, of deeply held secrets and the use of brutal power to quiet ‘those who oppose.’ When David Dyson, a devout priest working for the Church, and a true believer of the Second Coming, is interviewed by a tough female reporter about the outrageous rumors surrounding the Church, Dyson discovers that his whole life may have been built around a lie. Will his crisis of faith reveal the Church of the Second Coming's shocking secrets? You'll be surprised by the revelation and shocked by the misunderstanding of the Church of the Second Coming. Yesterday’s Savior is a reminder, particularly relevant in this day and age, that freedom is worth fighting for.

The most dangerous race in the galaxy is the race against time. And the second most dangerous race? The Galactic Great Council believes it’s the Humans.

The Thryggians may be close to breaking out of their pocket universe using a psi-powered heavy ship left over from an ancient war. If they succeed in activating the ship, they’ll be unstoppable.

Stumbling on Wins (Bonus Content Edition)
Author: David Berri
Publisher: Pearson Education
ISBN: 0137069510
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The next quantum leap beyond Moneyball, this book offers powerful new insights into all human decision-making, because if sports teams are getting it wrong this badly, how do you know you're not? Sometimes the decisions that teams make are simply inexplicable. Consider: sports teams have an immense amount of detailed, quantifiable information to draw upon, more than in virtually any other industry. They have powerful incentives for making good decisions. Everyone sees the results of their choices, and the consequences for failure are severe. And yet... they keep making the same mistakes over and over again... systematic mistakes you'd think they'd learn how to avoid. Now, two leading sports economists reveal those mistakes in basketball, baseball, football, and hockey, and explain why sports decision-makers never seem to learn their lessons. You'll learn which statistics are connected to wins, and which aren't, and which statistics can and can't predict the future. Along the way, David Berri and Martin Schmidt show why a quarterback's place in the draft tells you nothing about how he'll perform in the NFL... why basketball decision-makers don't focus on the factors that really correlate with NBA success... why famous coaches don't deliver better results... and much more.

Yesterday, Today, and Forever
Author: Gareth Lee Cockerill
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725292742
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
Yesterday, Today, and Forever is not a theology of the Letter to the Hebrews, nor is it simply another commentary on the text. Nevertheless, if you take time to work through this reading guide, you will gain a rich, holistic understanding of Hebrews' theology, and you will be able to come back to this volume again and again as a resource for personal growth, teaching, and preaching. This book was written out of the author's desire to share the fruit of more than thirty-five years of study and meditation on this often neglected but rich New Testament book, to help readers see its vision of the all-sufficient Christ and to gain a holistic grasp of the way the author of Hebrews has arranged the material of this book to encourage us in a life of faithfulness--a message of importance for the world in which we live. The book of Hebrews has been divided into seven weeks of daily readings (forty-nine days), so you will have time for Hebrews to permeate your heart and mind. If you patiently follow this schedule, you will be rewarded with an understanding of Hebrews unavailable to those who want a quick fix.

Walking Away From Your Yesterday: A 28 Day Devotional
Author: C.D. Vaughn
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1312151374
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Every day in life is a new day, every day we have been graciously given the opportunity to start over and make the day before, our yesterday. So many times we hold on to our past not realizing that yesterday is over and we can move forward in a new day, and that yesterday can't bind us, unless we allow it. You, me, we, are not our yesterday. We are not the past things that we have done and sometimes it is hard for us to understand that because we have people in our life that constantly remind us of the things that we have done, we have a mirror that holds the reflection of our past hurts and pains, and it holds us to our yesterday.

Searching Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
Author: Linda Mercier
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1644923785
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
This book of poems is from life lived. People the world over struggle to find something, anything that will bring them closer to finding laughter, to find love, to be in good health, to have a decent shelter, or even to escape from constant abuse. People are searching for what will make them happy, fulfilled, and loved. I am hoping this book of poetry will reflect my own struggles and trials through the years that I have faced and continue to face even now on this journey to find love, and acceptance and ultimately God. I hope that people reading this book will find compassion, understanding, and faith as I myself did. The poems are about happiness, strength, fear, depression, chipmunks, humorous situations, tag sales, God, sorrow, birds and many more too numerous to list. I remind people through my poems to continue questioning and asking, to search till you find, and to keep knocking on Gods door because he will open it to you if you would but call to him and accept his love and grace. I hope my poems speak to your heart!

Book Description
Ive shut the door on yesterday, It sorrows and mistakes; Ive locked within its gloomy walls Past failures and heartaches And now I throw the key away To seek another room And furnish it with hope and smiles, And every springtime bloom. No thought shall enter this abode That has a hint of pain, And every malice and distrust Shall never therein reign. Ive shut the door on yesterday And thrown the key away- Tomorrow holds no doubt for me, Since I have found today.

AmalgaNations
Author: Doug Hendrie
Publisher: Hardie Grant Books
ISBN: 1743581769
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
It’s globalised culture – but not as we know it. Fuelled by curiosity and wanderlust, reporter Doug Hendrie travels to the edges of our world to find the most unexpected – and bizarre – examples of cultural mash-ups, from the StarCraft videogame superstars of South Korea to the Clash-loving punks of Indonesia. A whirlwind world tour through surprising subcultures told with subtle humour, AmalgaNations picks up where Louis Theroux leaves off. ‘We’re used to carting our travel discoveries home, but as Doug Hendrie proves it’s a two-way trade. Particularly when high tech, sex and style make the most unexpected converts.’ Tony Wheeler ‘Travelling isn’t just about where you go but what you do when you get there: where you look, what you see, who you meet and the questions you ask. Hendrie gets all this right and more in a book which doesn’t just take us places but into what feels like the future - a future that is here, now.’ Sophie Cunningham ‘Hendrie challenges stereotypes, celebrates differences and shows that, at base, what makes us all human is our ability to creatively adapt to and engage with our increasingly interconnected world.’ Damien Kingsbury ‘Doug Hendrie’s personal and insightful account of the connections between the West and other cultures exposes hidden truths about our global village.’ Jacqueline Kent ‘From Ghana’s sorcery, scams and soft- porn film industry to gay power in the Philippines ... Welcome to Doug Hendrie’s world tour of rebirthed cultures.’ Christopher Kremmer
