Even As You Are In Me by Thomas Curtis Pdf

The telling of this story begins during the period of Dr. Israel Newman’s grief inflicted by the traumatic death of his toddler son, Markus. As a necessity of heaven, he insists it must be a physical place where he can hold his son again. One day, on his way to work as a pain management specialist caring for people dependent on opioids, he observes impossible changes of Mount Rainier, with disappearance and reappearance of Tahoma Peak. He thinks he might be losing his mind. In his psychology support group, a socially and professionally ostracized genius of physics, the amusing Michael Hannity, suggests that what really happened was Israel’s mind moving between different timelines. As Michael explains spiritual travel in relativistic spacetime, Israel sees and hopes for a possibility to prevent the death of his son. He cannot control his travels and experiences horror, romance, humor, and intrigue in the lives of others. He falls in love. At the end of a series of hellish experiences, he encounters for the first time, Jesus as a lad of twelve, who admonishes him to make heaven in the lives of others. Jesus appears again and again, and in whose lives? We see a psychologically troubled, human Jesus and within him an omniscient presence. A tour-de-force of imagination, wildly inventive and funny as well as thought-provoking and moving, this book will draw you into a world you never dreamed of. It answers many questions and asks some more. You will want to talk about it.

Die by Proxy by Ben Oneal Pdf

Someone is leaving dead child molesters along Interstate 69; sitting naked and alone, waiting to be discovered by some passing motorist. Their hands have been severed from their bodies, and they died at the scene. Their clothes are folded neatly in their laps, along with their wallet, and their severed hands on either side; one holds a confession, and one holds evidence of their evil. In the thriller Die by Proxy, Mr. Smith, a killer almost as deplorable as the child predators he hunts, is using the victims as bait. With every disease minded body he leaves along Interstate 69, he pulls agent Benjamin Kroh, of the Behavioral Analysis Unit closer to his death. These morbid enticements bring Kroh, back to his hometown. Why has he brought them here? This is a question that must be answered, if Kroh is to save his friends, his family, and himself.

Onward to Victory by Murray Sperber Pdf

From the acclaimed author of Shake Down the Thunder, Murray Sperber's Onward to Victory is a brilliant, detailed, and engrossing work of social history for not only sports fans, but anyone interested in the development of modern American culture. With the 1940 release of the classic film Knute Rockne, All American, the myth of the hero scholar-athlete was born, and with it came the age of big-time college sports in America. Drawing on a wide variety of sources, including press accounts, letters and diaries, historical papers, and interviews with many who were there, Murray Sperber recounts how the myths created by Hollywood studios were embellished and codified by a hungry press, infiltrating the collective unconscious with epic stories of players, coaches, and teams. As college sports became a mainstay of popular entertainment, they also were fertile ground for near-fatal scandal, ultimately giving rise to the modern NCAA. Sperber vividly re-creates the world of postwar America, with its all-powerful radiomen, its lurid press, its growing prosperity, and, of course, the infancy of television
