Pale Blue Dot by Carl Sagan,Ann Druyan Pdf

“Fascinating . . . memorable . . . revealing . . . perhaps the best of Carl Sagan’s books.”—The Washington Post Book World (front page review) In Cosmos, the late astronomer Carl Sagan cast his gaze over the magnificent mystery of the Universe and made it accessible to millions of people around the world. Now in this stunning sequel, Carl Sagan completes his revolutionary journey through space and time. Future generations will look back on our epoch as the time when the human race finally broke into a radically new frontier—space. In Pale Blue Dot, Sagan traces the spellbinding history of our launch into the cosmos and assesses the future that looms before us as we move out into our own solar system and on to distant galaxies beyond. The exploration and eventual settlement of other worlds is neither a fantasy nor luxury, insists Sagan, but rather a necessary condition for the survival of the human race. “Takes readers far beyond Cosmos . . . Sagan sees humanity’s future in the stars.”—Chicago Tribune

Love, from a distance by Devika Arora Pdf

"If you were to record the heartbeats of different people, you’d see that no heart beats the same. And, no two minds think the same. No souls love the same, and no two people will feel exactly the same. Love is the same. It is that calm yet fiery, passionate yet gentle, and soothing yet painful emotion that we experience (at least) once in our lives. What we think of it, how we think of it, and who we think of when we think of ‘love’ is different for all of us. Love, from a Distance, then, is is a collection of our shared lived experiences. Through several musings, poetry, and short stories, twenty-one writers have explored all that love means, and all that it shouldn’t mean at best, its worst, or at its most vulnerable."

That's Me in the Closet by Steven Andrews Pdf

Steven Andrews grew up atheist. He’s bisexual. He was a foster child. He was abused and neglected. Nonetheless, God came to find him, and he became a college convert to Christianity. He is now a Presbyterian pastor, a nascent counselor, a husband, and a father. None of that was inevitable. This book is the story of how all that came to be. It’s a narrative of vulnerability and authenticity. It’s a journey through evangelism, queer identity, and healing from trauma. It’s a plea for the future of the mainline church. Most of all, it’s one person sharing their story and encouraging you to share your own—as we all strive to be the people God made us to be.

Casting Seaward by Steve Ramirez Pdf

In Casting Seaward, author, naturalist, and educator Steve Ramirez expands beyond the geographical scope of his first two books by traveling thousands of miles by plane, motor vehicle, boat, and foot pursuing the native gamefish of North America’s salt and brackish water habitats. This journey includes following anadromous fish like salmon from the ocean’s depth to the shallowest tributaries of Alaskan rivers, and following rivers and streams from their freshwater sources to their brackish water deltas. In the course of this journey, Ramirez explores and fishes portions of the entire American coastline from the Northern Atlantic coast to the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, and up the Pacific coast from California to Alaska. The entirety of this sojourn was written while traveling through the COVID-19 pandemic, and it touches on the lessons that challenges such as global pandemics, global ecological and sociological disruption, and global opportunities for positive learning and change can teach us about nature and human nature. Most of all, Casting Seaward is a celebration of the bounty and beauty of our water-covered planet, and a recognition of its increasingly rarefied qualities. Each story is told in part through the eyes of the people who have lived alongside, and come to love, these waters and fish. Woven throughout these adventures are the stories of the people he meets and befriends while pursuing a mutual love of nature and the best of human nature, as the first criterion for finding common ground. Casting Seaward is an enthralling exploration, an insightful warning and call to action, and an exceedingly hopeful story in an all-too-often seemingly hopeless time. It is a story of fishing and friendship. It is a story of humanity’s impact on nature, and nature’s impact on humanity. It is our story, in this pivotal moment in the history of humanity and the living blue planet we call home.

The Camerons by Robert Crichton Pdf

On her 16th birthday, Maggie Drum sets out from the grimy streets of her Scottish coalmining town to find a man of pride, independence and spirit fit enough to be her husband. She finds her man in Gillon Cameron, a tall fisherman from the Highlands, who will learn to go down into the mines yet refuse to settle for the grinding poverty of the coal miner's life. In a world that treats coal miners as little more than slaves, Maggie's steely determination and Gillon's abiding pride stake their claim to a better future for themselves and seven children. Robert Crichton, author of The Secret of Santa Vittoria, brings his stellar storytelling gifts to this sweeping family epic, capturing the Camerons' moments of triumph and loss, bitterness and love set in the magnificent landscapes and social battles of 19th century Scotland. First published in 1972, and a New York Times bestseller for more than five months, The Camerons draws you in with what at first appears to be a straightforward family drama, then captivates you by the complexity and depth of the Camerons' struggle to create a future of hope and triumph.

Always by Bethany-Kris Pdf

A wild boy. A sly girl. Cross Donati defines trouble. He does what he wants because he’s never known anything different. He’s unapologetic, and he owns it. Catherine Marcello is every bit a good girl … on the outside. Her entire world is a legacy, and she lives it. She’s curious, and she’s exploring it. She chases bad things.

Sometimes, you can’t keep saving your heart when it means sacrificing it, too. Sometimes, you have to learn to save yourself. Sometimes, love has to fall, crash, and burn. ​ This is what love is like when you’re a principe and principessa della mafia. This is what love is like when you’re Cross Donati and Catherine Marcello.

Hail, Ye Knights of the King by by Andrew Soyars Pdf

As long as we live in this world and in this flesh, we'll have our flaws to deal with. That's enough to keep us busy even without all our other adversaries. That's why God has provided us with armor. "Hail, Ye Knights of the King" is a book about that armor. Not so much the functions of the armor, which has already been studied and written about countless times, but more about the creation of the armor...so we can rest assured that the armor isn't flawed. Because if the armor is flawed, then how can we be sure our salvation isn't flawed too? Come on in and take a fascinating look at just how (and where) this armor of God comes from... Truly amazing!
