The Loose Ends of My Life by Vincent J. Guastella Pdf
The stories you are about to read are the memories of my life, but not all of them. Names have been altered to protect peoples images and innocence. Although no one is ever totally innocent. All descriptions of people, places, and events are purely coincidental. It really hurts me to write this disclaimer shit to cover my ass. Such is the world today, little or no responsibility for ones actions. If you feel you have been written about in this book, you are wrong.
No Loose Ends: Misfits of Gambria (Book 7) by pdmac Pdf
Not quite dead as some had hoped, King Diad sits once again on the throne. Discovering his wife married to another, he quite happily divorces her and exiles her from the capital. However, King Diad is not the same as he once was and soon, he is king in name only, for the new Lord Chamberlain has deftly assumed the power behind the throne. Yet the kingdom is in turmoil, for Lord Dade’s rebellion is pushing the kingdom to civil war. Quickly assembling an army, the Lord Chamberlain sends his forces south with the intent of crushing the insurgency, while permanently removing Dade as a threat. Though willing to help restore order to the kingdom, Duncan vividly remembers the last time Diad was King and hurriedly builds an elite army of Templars, loyal only to him. With his power base expanding, and with Guina no longer Queen, will Duncan be content as Lord and High Priest? While the kingdom is plunged into turmoil, Alexis has found sanctuary with the mountain folk who call themselves Cinoc Mar. She immediately begins training their warriors in the deadly martial arts only to learn too late their ambition is to rule all of Gambria, and the fact that she is expected to fight against those whom she once called friends. Will she be able to fight Brenna when she confronts her on the battlefield? And oh by the way, the army of Rugia is gathering to attack.
In this study of American cultural production from the colonial era to the present, Russell Reising takes up the loose ends of popular American narratives to craft a new theory of narrative closure. In the range of works examined here - from Phillis Wheatley's poetry to Herman Melville's Israel Potter, from Henry James's "The Jolly Corner" to Disney's Dumbo - Reising finds endings that violate all existing theories of closure, and narratives that expose the often unarticulated issues that inspired these texts. Reising suggests that these "nonendings" entirely refocus the narrative structures they appear to conclude, accentuate the narrative stresses and ideological fissures that the texts seem to suppress, and reveal "shadow narratives" that trail alongside the dominant story line. He argues that unless the reader notices the ruptures in the closing moments of these works, the social and historical moments in which the narrative and the reader are embedded will be missed. This reading not only offers new interpretive possibilities, but also uncovers startling affinities between the poetry of Phillis Wheatley and the fiction of Henry James, between Charles Brockden Brown's Wieland and Melville's Israel Potter, and between Emily Dickinson's poem "I Started Early - Took My Dog " and Disney's animated classic. Pursuing the implications of these failed moments of closure, Reising elaborates on topics ranging from the roots of domestic violence and mass murder in early American religious texts to the pornographic imperative of mid-century nature writing, and from James's "descent" into naturalist and feminist fiction to Dumbo's explosive projection of commercial, racial, and political agendas for postwar U.S. culture. General readers interested in American literature as well as students of literary theory will find Loose Ends enlightening and provocative.
Under the Pavilion of God's Protection by L. GRUITS- SHEPPARD Pdf
Under the Pavilion of God’s Protection is a precisely researched and solidly written study of God’s protection of His Believers. Comparable to a day-by-day devotional, Pavilion is a broad-in-scope Biblical analysis of the Lord’s provision of protecting His Saints. The work digs deeply into just exactly what is meant by His grace, power and righteousness, as well as our strength, joy, freedom, comfort, and the varied ways in which He protects His own, etc. — too numerous to mention here. Peek inside and experience the teaching using the Biblical rank-and-file and God’s hand of guidance sheltering His own. The Scriptures colorfully bring to light the situations of life and illuminate the reader’s need to understand God’s ways in this arena.
In Conversation with God, bestselling author Lloyd Ogilvie shows readers a fresh approach to prayer—one that is as much listening as speaking. Drawing on years of experiencing God as a friend, Ogilvie clearly and simply explains the many dimensions of prayer and then provides a 30–day guide so readers can put into practice what they’re learning. As they begin to enjoy give–and–take conversation with God as a part of everyday life, readers will experience the truth that He is always available...so they need never feel alone or isolated. And they will find prayer to be more refreshing, profound, and meaningful than they may ever have imagined possible. Excellent for group Bible studies or as a personal guide. Formerly titled Quiet Moments in Prayer.
How did Lazarus cope after being raised from the dead? Did he simply return to his normal routines? Or during Jesus’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, what was the donkey thinking? If a stone had the gift of sentience, what witness would it have given to the woman caught in the act of adultery? These are but a few of the questions posed by the author in his collection of short stories, Loose Ends. Each story owes its origin to a passage from the New Testament. Following the Jewish tradition of midrash, author Brian d’Eon prayerfully looks into the motivations of the characters in these stories, trying to fill in gaps in the narrative and tie up “loose ends.” Inspired by countless generations of midrash writers, d’Eon looks for ways to join piety and imagination together, searching for new meaning in stories whose long familiarity may have blunted their original impact.

The books are great, the sermons are life-changing, the music is inspirational, and the conferences are astonishing. Will this continue or will we, who are part of it all, end up destroying it? That depends on how we live the message. As "insiders" of the Calvinist resurgence, there are at least eight ways we can mess everything up. Learn what they are and how to avoid killing off a perfectly good theology.
Ages ago the continent was invaded by massive armies intent on creating a new home for themselves. The peaceful indigenous peoples fled before the marauding hordes and hid defiantly in the mountain peaks awaiting a signal from god. They learned the arts of magic and warfare as they hid from the intruders, who divided the land amongst themselves and set up a civilization where the many toil and slave for the elite few. The Forgotten Legacy series begins with Young Lord of Khadora as Marak, a young soldier in the service of one of the clans of Khadora, is chosen as a sacrifice for the benefit of his lord. Marak is sent on a fool's mission to defeat one of the small bands of indigenous people known as the Chula, a race of dreaded cat-people. Volume 1 of Forgotten Legacy.
