Jake's Honor by Linda Ford Pdf

From a fan favorite author with more than one million books sold: Four brothers find love in unexpected places in this western historical series. Connie has always been the plain one. The responsible one. The dutiful one. She always stood in her beautiful cousin's shadow, but now her cousin is dead. Connie is left to pick up the pieces and do right by her little niece, Megan, which means delivering the girl to her father. But nothing is as it seems. Jake denies being the father. Worse, the attraction Connie once felt for the enigmatic rancher still exists, though she has always been invisible to him. Jake Hooper lost his mother, his father, and then his sweetheart, who left him without so much as a word of explanation. When Connie shows up with a child she claims is his, he knows it can't be true. Jake determines to take Connie and Megan to Fort Macleod. They aren't his responsibility. And after all the loss he has suffered, he can't bear to open his heart again. But the more time they spend together, the more one charming little girl and her fiery aunt sneak into Jake's heart. Will he be able to cut ties and leave them on their own? Or will his honor-and his heart-require a different answer?

T.D. Jakes by Shayne Lee Pdf

Examines the rise of one of the most prolific spiritual leader of modern times T.D. Jakes has emerged as one of the most prolific spiritual leaders of our time. He is pastor of one of the largest churches in the country, CEO of a multimillion dollar empire, the host of a television program, author of a dozen bestsellers, and the producer of two Grammy Award-nominated CDs and three critically acclaimed plays. In 2001 Time magazine featured Jakes on the cover and asked: Is Jakes the next Billy Graham? T.D. Jakes draws on extensive research, including interviews with numerous friends and colleagues of Jakes, to examine both Jakes’s rise to prominence and proliferation of a faith industry bent on producing spiritual commodities for mass consumption. Lee frames Jakes and his success as a metaphor for changes in the Black Church and American Protestantism more broadly, looking at the ramifications of his rise—and the rise of similar preachers—for the way in which religion is practiced in this country, how social issues are confronted or ignored, and what is distinctly “American” about Jakes's emergence. While offering elements of biography, the work also seeks to shed light on important aspects of the contemporary American and African American religious experience. Lee contends that Jakes’s widespread success symbolizes a religious realignment in which mainline churches nationwide are in decline, while innovative churches are experiencing phenomenal growth. He emphasizes the “American-ness” of Jakes’s story and reveals how preachers like Jakes are drawing followers by delivering therapeutic and transformative messages and providing spiritual commodities that are more in tune with postmodern sensibilities. As the first work to critically examine Bishop Jakes’s life and message, T.D. Jakes is an important contribution to contemporary American religion as well as popular culture.

Jake by Arch Montgomery Pdf

"Jake takes place during one of the single most powerfully shaping times in a person's life--secondary education. Through the metaphor of the utopian and fictitious St. Stephen's Episcopal School, author Arch Montgomery shows us how our humanity can only be fully realized through other humans. The book depicts three deaths and one near-fatal disease while simultaneously tracking the rebirth of Jake, the titular and main character. He moves from a transparent ""only-good-as-I-have-to-be"" mentality to a lifestyle of excellence and three-dimensionality with the help of his school, which is personified through the characters of Mary White, rector; George Meader, teacher; and Joel Kohn, student.Jake presents both Montgomery's view of public school systems (which Jake, without a drop of nostalgia, refers to as ""out in the county"") and his view of an ideal school, which, in this case, comes in the form of an independent school, though the tenets that make it so admirable could be applied to almost any school--public, independent, parochial, or otherwise. Mixing real-world models with an informed idealism, Montgomery creates St. Stephen's in order to demonstrate the most positive influence a school can have on one person.On the flipside of that coin, however, remain numerous questions about what kind of negative effects sub-par schools can have on their students. While St. Stephen's gives its students a three-dimensional education--mind (academics), body (athletics), and spirit (chapel and community service)--do public schools scratch the surface of even just one dimension? While Mary White, the head of St. Stephen's, plays roles as varied as disciplinarian, spiritual leader, and friend, in what light do most public school students view their own principals? While the educational events of the highest consequence happen to Jake outside the classroom, how many public school students interact with their classmates, teachers, or administration beyond a school setting?On a continuum of education quality--satisfactory, good, great, excellent, ideal--where does St. Stephen's fall? Where does the school you went to, or your children go to, fall? These and many other questions arise in Jake, and beg to be discussed, because once problems are recognized, they can begin to get solved."

One Incredible Endurance by Beatrice Quainooh Pdf

A unique story of survival through unimaginable proportions. The novel focus on dominance and control as well as greed and deception. It revealed a major concern about self-centeredness and how inaction and devotion could be mistaken for stupidity. The young couple's (main characters) diverging perspectives on life, stemming from their di erent childhood experiences makes it a compelling read and thought provoking. A journey of courage , self-discovery and freedom. Through the novel, the author found ways to reach out to the young and inspire those who seek to break free and focus on a new dawn. What others are saying about the book! The crazy spiral spun by Bea Quainooh is almost more than one can bear. The truth is indeed stranger than ction but Quainooh's generously and courageously steps forward to testify to one of the truths of women's experiences in the goings and comings of marriage, livelihood and solidarity in migration. Reading this book sucks you into an emotional roller coaster. Esi Sutherland-Addy, Professor of African Studies and Gender Activist. "Incredible Indeed" ___Mary Carr of Pearl Mississippi

The Critical Reception of Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises by Peter L. Hays Pdf

This History of the criticism of The Sun Also Rises shows not only how Hemingway's first major novel was received over the decades, but also how different critical modes have dominated different decades, and what, besides tenure, critics of different eras looked for in it. As such, it shows what has interested critics, how they have reinterpreted the novel, and how they have seen the characters playing different roles. Thus the novel becomes a mirror, reflecting not only Paris and Spain in 1925, but us.
