A Bricklayer's Story by Dr. John H. LaManque Pdf

Read how trusting in Jesus Christ and calling upon His name helped a fifty-nine-year-old bricklayer to go from bricks to books and beyond. This is an inspiring story about how God's Word helped a bricklayer gain the courage to overcome obstacles placed in his path. This book is a reminder that life is a journey, and when the Lord closes one door, he always opens another. My message in this book is that we have to turn the doorknob of our hearts to let Jesus in. Dr. John H. LaManque pushes back against the attack on Christian Church values in foreign lands. Hindu fundamentalists and Muslims who hate Christians have burnt their churches to the ground and killed Christian people. The author sees a greater threat to American Christians coming from within, and he identifies the threat as coming from the secular humanist movement in the form of a new religion. The new religion is led by groups that follow Marxist theology and includes atheists, educators, and the media, who want to sell the idea that sinful behavior is just another alternative lifestyle.

Bricklayer Bill by Patrick L. Kennedy,Lawrence W. Kennedy Pdf

Two weeks after the United States officially entered World War I, Irish American "Bricklayer Bill" Kennedy won the Boston Marathon wearing his stars-and-stripes bandana, rallying the crowd of patriotic spectators. Kennedy became an American hero and, with outrageous stories of his riding the rails and sleeping on pool tables, a racing legend whose name has since appeared in almost every book written on the Boston Marathon. When journalist Patrick Kennedy and historian Lawrence Kennedy unearthed their uncle's unpublished memoir, they discovered a colorful character who lived a tumultuous life, beyond his multiple marathons. The bricklayer survived typhoid fever, a five-story fall, auto and train accidents, World War action, Depression-era bankruptcy, decades of back-breaking work, and his own tendency to tipple. In many ways, Bill typified the colorful, newly emerging culture and working-class ethic of competitive long-distance running before it became a professionalized sport. Bricklayer Bill takes us back to another time, when bricklayers, plumbers, and printers could take the stage as star athletes.

The Bricklayers' Secret by Peter Killick Pdf

This charming story about a damaged house brick, not fit to be cemented into a wall, is a delight to read. The author has an instinctive ability as a story-teller for children, and has entered into the childs point of view very well. He has infused a huge amount of drama and charm into this simple story. The author clearly has a sense of humour, which comes out in his characterisation. Of all the inanimate objects, a brick is probably the hardest to make appealing and characterful. However, he has managed it to beautiful effect.
