A professor’s suicide is the catalyst for this novel about politics and ideals set at Harvard during the 1950s When Harvard professor Edward Cavan commits suicide by throwing himself under a subway train, his death sets off shock waves both across campus and in the hearts of his loved ones. To Edward’s estranged sister, Isabel, her brother represented the dangers she sought to escape through the security of marriage. His student George Hastings saw in Edward the father he wished he had. Damon Phillips shared Edward’s idealistic beliefs —until his fear of being branded a Communist caused him to betray his friend. And Ivan Goldberg knew Edward as a man who would rather die than compromise his beliefs. Through the eyes of those he touched, Edward comes alive again, and we begin to understand who he is and what he stands for. With a title that is a metaphor for the embattled lives of 1950s liberals, Faithful Are the Wounds is about what it means to be American and human in a world that can affect us on the most profound spiritual and ideological levels. It is about how much we are willing to sacrifice for our freedom, and what happens when our values are destroyed.

Faithful are the Wounds by Michael Christian Shaw Pdf
"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." (John 1:5) The wounds we receive among the many paths of life - whether they be physical, emotional, or spiritual -have the potential power to lead to a spiritual legacy of faith in Christ, one great enough to transform individuals and families alike, creating beauty and renewal from the ashes of pain and loss. Author Michael Christian Shaw has experienced this powerful and lasting spiritual transformation firsthand. Shaw's entrance into this world was surrounded by profound and intense loss at the tragic death of his four-year-old brother, Brucie, when he died a mere nine days after the author's birth. Having to navigate personal and family grief, the author's faith was also tested many years later with his own child's battle with cancer. Faithful are the Wounds: A Memoir explores both the realities of death, grief, and trauma, as well as the healing and strength that come from knowing a God who loves us and is bigger than life itself, including its sorrows. This haunting and deeply personal story chronicles the author's journey from darkness into light, from fear to faith, from grief to joy, and from death to life. This memoir combines the stark reality of emotional pain, with the gift of humor, and the ability to laugh at ourselves.

Will Somebody Please Stand Up and Tell My People THE TRUTH by Sammie Madison Pdf
Since the death of Martin Luther King, Jr., it seems that we as black Americans have lost our way; we, as did the Hebrew Israelites, have been wandering in the "wilderness of sin and debauchery" for forty-plus years and have not been able to enter into the Promised Land. We have followed blind guides who have led us wandering in the wilderness. We have followed self-proclaimed black leaders whose leadership have been marred by deception, dishonesty, egotism, and a lack of integrity. For several years now, I have wrestled and agonized with the disturbing notion "Will somebody please stand up and tell my people the truth?" We have sabotaged our own selves and are losing the race; thusly, we have been detoured from entering the Promised Land. Sammie L. Madison
