Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
This is the autobiography of a young mans journey of faith and how the issue of "fitting in" impacted every area of his life.

It covers the every day struggles of a teenager as well as the difficulties of being a young man who felt totally unprepared for the tensions of the world outside due to hyper critical upbringing, and living in a home with an alcoholic parent. Lastly the author shares the grace and wisdom he obtained over twenty five years in the pastoral ministry, as well as his training in biblical studies. This book is for everyone who has a desire for God and the authors intent is that everyone would be drawn into a deeper walk with the Lord irrespective of their religious beliefs.

Like Father, Love Son
Author: Alan Nolan
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1848765452
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The modern world takes its toll on family life. Alan Nolan has spent the last 20 years apart from his son Ian, who is based in Italy. Deciding that the best way to revive their father / son bond is to undertake an energy-sapping walk through the Italian, Swiss and French Alps on a tough Mont Blanc trek, Alan and Ian set off on their high adrenaline adventure. Like Father, Love Son is Alan’s vivid account of their trip, a unique blend of travel, autobiography and family history peppered with humour. You’ll laugh out loud as they encounter a French Mr. Bean, the American Burt Kwouk, the Australian hitman and at their night spent at the Randy Nurse’s. Convinced that many of us don’t really know our parents because we accept them as they are without asking about their past, Alan decides that Ian needs to know why he was called ‘Killer’ Nolan as a boy and what prompted him to abandon his fledgling boxing career at Teddy Snowball’s gym. Anyone who has read Ancient Feet, Alan’s side-splitting account of his eventful crossing of the North of England with five mates on the Coast to Coast Walk, will already know that Like Father, Love Son will be a barrow load of entertainment, as well as some home truths about our relationships in this modern era.

Give and Go
Author: Thomas Mc Laughlin
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 0791478580
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
From the city courts of Harlem to the church halls of Indiana, pickup basketball culture is intensely local and reflects the histories and identities of its players. In Give and Go, Thomas Mc Laughlin examines how players put into play a loose set of values and ethical styles that influence how they think, feel, move, and relate to others within the community. A lifelong pickup ball player—one of modest skills but serious intent—Mc Laughlin has internalized and embodied the culture of the game, and he writes as a participant in the basketball community, putting into words what his body already knows. This book reflects the author's personal experience and observation of the game, through the lens of contemporary cultural theory, and also examines the representation of basketball culture in popular media, including the films Hoop Dreams, Hoosiers, and White Men Can't Jump. As only an insider can, Mc Laughlin takes readers onto the court and into the minds of players as they negotiate the culture of the game.
