Book Description
«Me siento solo». Ésta fue la reflexión de Charles Chaplin cuando se descubrió que no había vida en Marte. Comenzaba la década de los ochenta y las primeras sondas investigadoras enviadas por la Nasa comprobaron que no había posibilidad de que existiesen seres vivos en ese planeta y el genial actor pronunció esas palabras delante de la prensa cuando le preguntaron su opinión sobre la noticia. Vivimos en un mundo perfectamente comunicado, pero solitario al mismo tiempo. Necesitamos volver a tener y a ser amigos. Éste es un libro sobre la amistad y las relaciones con los demás escrito en 30 capítulos, uno para cada día del mes. Tú decides cómo leerlo. Lo único importante es tener tiempo para reflexionar y aplicar lo que estás leyendo. Si lo haces con naturalidad y le dedicas tu atención, verás cómo todo fluye.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
A heartwarming dog story like no other: Tuesday, a lovable golden retriever, changes a former soldier’s life forever. A highly decorated captain in the U.S. Army, Luis Montalván never backed down from a challenge during his two tours of duty in Iraq. After returning home from combat, however, his physical wounds and crippling post-traumatic stress disorder began to take their toll. He wondered if he would ever recover. Then Luis met Tuesday, a sensitive golden retriever trained to assist people with disabilities. Tuesday had lived among prisoners and at a home for troubled boys, and he found it difficult to trust in or connect with a human being–until Luis. Until Tuesday is the story of how two wounded warriors, who had given so much and suffered the consequences, found salvation in each other. It is a story about war and peace, injury and recovery, psychological wounds and spiritual restoration. But more than that, it is a story about the love between a man and dog, and how, together, they healed each other’s souls.

Pages : 259
Book Description
La Conquista de México, contada con todo detalle, sirve de decorado y soporte a una historia de amor y de guerra. Tras la batalla de Centla, la primera librada en el continente americano, los vencidos regalaron a los españoles un puñado de doncellas, entre las que se encontraba la que sería intérprete y amante de Hernán Cortés, doña Marina o La Malinche, como se conoce a la mujer atrevida e inteligente que desempeñó un papel decisivo en el éxito de la conquista del imperio azteca. Un "regalo" que Cortés valoró y conservó durante toda su vida. En esta novela, documentada con meticuloso rigor histórico, el autor imagina los sentimientos vacilantes de una joven india deslumbrada por la personalidad de un hombre audaz, calculador y sensible. Un amor que se sobrepone a la crudeza de las batallas, a las intrigas y traiciones, a las flaquezas y grandeza de los protagonistas y que es el hilo conductor de una narración repleta de emoción y ternura.

Faith's Checkbook (Sea Harp Timeless series)
Author: Charles H. Spurgeon
Publisher: Destiny Image Publishers
ISBN: 0768471621
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Throughout Scripture, God promises the impossible to those who believe. For many Christians, the promises of God have lost their power. Deemed as irrelevant or simply misunderstood, God's promises—of triumph, abundance, redemption, and countless blessings—are often ignored, forgotten, and seemingly unfulfilled. However, for Charles H. Spurgeon, God’s promises were timeless. In fact, they seemed to grow in power and hope over the course of his life. In Faith’s Checkbook, Spurgeon shares his personal experience testing and proving Scripture’s promises and his ongoing discovery of a relentlessly good, kind and faithful God. He urges believers to treat God’s promises as they would a check—to receive them, endorse them and actively "cash them in." Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892), renowned 19th century Baptist preacher, is best known for his 1866 publication Morning and Evening. Over 20 years later, Spurgeon wrote Faith’s Checkbook, a yearlong devotional that inspires believers to see and experience God’s goodness. Written near the end of his life, in the depths of a season marked by incredible loneliness, spiritual controversies and health complications, Faith’s Checkbook is full of honest, heartfelt and mature hope. Spurgeon’s breathtaking sincerity and provoking thoughts will encourage believers to: Study and engage God’s promises throughout Scripture Expect these promises to be fulfilled in their daily life Participate by receiving God’s promises and praying for their fulfillment Glimpse God’s boundless goodness and faithfulness Discover a renewed, child-like trust in Him In Faith’s Checkbook, the reader will encounter God’s outstretched hand—through promises of provision, wisdom, fruitfulness, presence and much more—and be invited to respond with hopeful anticipation.
