Book Description
Brother Craig's church was about to celebrate the Passover with a Messianic Jewish congregation when on the eve of Passover 2005, an arsonist set fire to his home on the church property. By God's grace, he and his family escaped--shaken but unharmed. His book, Truths for the Trail, grew out of his search to understand why it had happened. In the process, he had to reevaluate everything he had been taught in Scripture about the Jews, the festivals of the Lord, and the Torah, which Christians know as the Law. Brother Craig didn't realize it at first, but he was about to begin a spiritual journey just to find some answers to his questions. He discovered that he had to go back to the beginning of man to see what the Lord wanted him to see--what God taught ancient, nomadic Hebrews to see--that life is a road to travel, a path to walk, or a trail to follow. That the commandments God gave the ancient Hebrews were each laid out in a sequence designed to help simple shepherds and their families walk in righteousness. If the ancient commandments could help ancient peoples walk in the way of the Lord, could they not also help modern Christians wend their way through the dangers and difficulties of life? As he reflected on the commandments, Brother Craig began to see a pattern emerge that undoubtedly led the ancient Hebrews to understand life from the Lord's divine viewpoint. Truths for Life's Trail: Reflections on the Torah, Volume 1 covers all the commandments given by God to man over the course of over two thousand years, as recorded by Moses. From Genesis 1 through Exodus 20, from creation to Mount Sinai, these commandments laid the foundation for all the commandments yet to come in Scripture. And mysteriously, the Torah would point to the future Savior of mankind.

Fire and Ice: Soot, Solidarity, and Survival on the Roof of the World
Author: Jonathan Mingle
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1250029503
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
"A thousand years ago in a Himalayan valley, the village of Kumik was founded. For generations, Kumik villagers survived by learning to cultivate their mountain terrain, drawing from the waters of the glacier and snows above the village. But now the glacier is almost gone, and Kumik is dying. Why? As Fire and Ice reveals, the culprit is black carbon, the most dangerous pollutant in the world and the least understood. Black carbon absorbs more heat per unit of mass in the atmosphere than greenhouse gases, and contributes as much to melting the glaciers of the Himalaya as carbon dioxide. It's also a major component of the household air pollution that causes 4.3 million deaths each year from respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, and 3 million more from outdoor pollutants such as industrial exhaust. Black carbon threatens to overwhelm Kumik, unless the village can change the way it cooks, heats, farms and lives. In Fire and Ice, Jonathan Mingle weaves a dramatic narrative of one village's inspiring efforts to adapt to a rapidly changing environment, and a scientific detective tale about the impact of fire on every nation. Ranging from the Tibetan Plateau to New York and Washington, D.C., from Delhi and Kathmandu and China to northern California, Fire and Ice is a heroic exploration of our race to change the fate of our planet"--

The Way, the Truth, and the Life: The Way
Author: Rev. Charles Thomas Comella
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1681978040
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
The earliest Christian church was called The Way. It was called this because Jesus Christ's advent, life, death, and resurrection did not focus upon theology as such or doctrines as such or upon achieving warm, fuzzy feelings as such. Jesus's teachings and life were all focused upon a way of life. A way of life focused upon a relationship with God, and a way of life focused upon our relationships with our fellow men and women. Jesus shined a spotlight on how we are to live yearly, weekly, daily, act by act, step by step, decision by decision under the watchful eyes of a gracious, loving God who knows us and calls us by name. Even Jesus's death and resurrection were pointers revealing the way, the way of the journey we will all take one day. This small book is called The Way because it focuses, as Jesus did, upon the how-tos needed to cope with an increasingly irreligious, if not anti-Christian culture. How do I deal with fear? How do I deal with my guilt? How do I? From my observation and experience, these are the questions in the mind of the man or woman in the pew. There are ways. There is a way. They were pioneered for us by Jesus. He and his way is The Way.

Everybody for Everybody: Truth, Oneness, Good, and Beauty for Everyone¡¦S Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness Volume Ii
Author: Samuel A. Nigro MD
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1477114661
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 802
Book Description
EVERYONE FOR EVERYONEthe book (volumes I & II) by Samuel A. Nigro, M.D. The Everybody for Everybody Book is the accumulation of what was learned over 70 plus years of life, over 45 years of marriage, over 40 years as a psychiatrist, 3 years in the U.S. Navy Submarine Service, and as a first generation American with five children and ten grandchildren. The planet and mankind are amazing. To limit ourselves to behaviors as if there is nothing more, is contradicted by an accurate comprehensive understanding of the planet and the universe. Basically, love is superior to all and the universe is the entropy necessary for the expression of love. Love itself requires there to be more. Nothing more is a cruel joke that life and love are meaningless. All logic and reason demand there be more, and we should act as if there is even much more love in anticipation. And if there isnt, then there ought to be! Regardless, the world would be better by believing in such and acting as such. The book provides some articles but most of it is the way to live a transcendental life: organized matter sanctified and given a soul by identity, truth, oneness, good and beauty for everyones life, liberty, and pursuit of happinesspartially the subtitle of the book. You get substance and the transcendental principles for living that save by actuality for a change. This is in contrast to the virtual reality culture of the unreliable manipulating self-discrediting noisy glitzy press&media imposed substanceless non-being which, by suggestibility, turns us into choiceless aliens instead of free persons for the planet. By the self-worshiping self-discrediting press&media, we are on the madman road-rage race to the bottom culture of pollution, disgust, death, and decline. Not by this book. Against vulgar suggestibility and glitz caused gullibility, this book gives real being by teaching six analogous ways of living the wisdom-filled eight categories of metaphors of love in the cone of space-time: As a human particle by elementary physicsevent, spectrum, field, quantum, singularity, dimension, uncertainty, and force. As a human being by community universalsdignity, unity, integrity, identity, spirituality, life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. As a C/catholic, Roman or otherwise, by the sacramentsBaptism, Penance, Holy Communion, Extreme Unction, Holy Orders, Matrimony, and Grace. As a Christian by the virtuesfaith, hope, charity, prudence, justice, courage, temperance, and holiness. As a patient by the universal variables of all therapyliving things are precious, selective ignoring, subdued spontaneity non-self excluded, affect assistance, detached warmth & gentleness, non-reactive listening, C2CC centered candidness, and peace & mercy. And as sanctified by the last words of the crucified Christ. Take your pick or combine them all. Except for the quantity, it is simple. Thousands of aphorisms and concepts about every imaginable topic are offered to teach ancient secrets from nature and natures God (to quote the Founding Fathers of America). Interspersed in the book are the worlds first SEX SATIRES...fiery hilarious...which will help all cope with the prurience flooding the world as entertainment, advertisement and games. SEX SATIRE, properly applied to those exploiting sex, will free you from sex craziness and help keep societys prurience from disrupting your transcendental life. Read it through once; then a few pages or a chapter daily; and problem-solve as needed by index and perusal. You will be better. The world will be better. You will learn to be a real human being for everyone. And you will have your soul back by embracing the universal Mass mantra: life-sacrifice-virtue-lovehumanity- peace-freedom-death.
