Stranger No More
Author: Annahita Parsan
Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
There will be pain ahead, and trouble and problems that I won't be able to fix on my own. But in them all, I know God will be there, calling me to look to him. Inviting me to take the next step toward his open arms. And I will say yes. And yes. And yes. Annahita Parsan was born into a Muslim family in Iran and grew up with the simple hope of one day finding a good husband, having children, and doing some good in the world. Married and a mother before she turned eighteen, Annahita found herself unexpectedly widowed and trapped for years in an abusive second marriage that she later fled-discovering instead a God who might love her. Stranger No More is the remarkable true story of Annahita's path from oppression to the life-changing hope of Jesus. Fleeing Iran across the mountains into Turkey, she spent months in the terrifying Agri prison before a miraculous release and flight to Europe, where she and her two children knelt in a church and prayed, "God, from this day on we are Christians." Filled with unthinkable circumstances, miraculous rescues, and the quietly constant voice of Jesus, Stranger No More leads readers deep into the heart of God and draws them toward the same call that Annahita heeds today: using her past to save others from theirs. As the leader of two congregations in Sweden, Annahita has baptized hundreds of former Muslims since her own conversion, has seen firsthand the powerful ways God is at work among those who have left Islam behind, and is reminded every day that saying yes to God is always worth the risk.

Book Description
“ This is me. I am what I am and I’m not going to fix myself.” “Follow your heart.” How can someone can be so beautiful, be well-off, have pain in their heart, yet bear it and survive? This story, of a young lady, tells us a lot about the foretelling of traditional myths, covering humanity in a name of blame games and about the practices of an education system as culture. In a conformist society, Pankhuri, is a young, audacious, from an orthodox family. She is a student who plots illustration and imaginary tales with illustrations. She has been suffering from survival of Hassel’s depression and anxiety for the past eight years and maybe, there are many more days to come. This is when she crosses a conflux welded road of a boy named Reeaan, a successful man, a good leader but has a heart of stone. How badly a bipolarity of religious affairs dragged their wishes behind where it matters. An innocent transformation from a bellicose prisoned girl to a young woman leader with multiple failures and downfalls. Will she treat her career and love equally? How did her unstable functioning establish her well in life? What lessons doesshe get from her failure and fear? This is not only at love story but realities we come across in daily life. We shall be the witness of this rugged and beautiful bond and unwrapped mystery behind the two worlds.

Fethullah Gulen
Author: Jon Pahl
Publisher: Blue Dome Press
ISBN: 1682065251
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 411
Book Description
In this first critical biography of Fethullah Gulen in English, historian Jon Pahl takes us on a journey where we discover wisdom and controversy, from 1940's Turkey to the U.S. in the twenty-first century. Pahl tells the story of a pious Muslim boy from a tiny and remote Turkish village who on the one hand has inspired a global movement of millions of individuals dedicated to literacy, social enterprise, and interreligious dialogue, but who on the other hand has been monitored by Turkish police, seen as a threat by autocrats, and recently declared number one enemy by the current Turkish dictator. With lively prose and extensive research, Pahl traces Fethullah Gulen's life and thought in its contexts, states clearly his own positions, and then lets readers draw their own conclusions from the evidence about this undeniably significant historical figure.
