Unsettling Canada by Arthur Manuel,Grand Chief Ronald M. Derrickson Pdf
A Canadian bestseller and winner of the 2016 Canadian Historical Association Aboriginal History Book Prize, Unsettling Canada is a landmark text built on a unique collaboration between two First Nations leaders. Arthur Manuel (1951–2017) was one of the most forceful advocates for Indigenous title and rights in Canada; Grand Chief Ron Derrickson, one of the most successful Indigenous businessmen in the country. Together, they bring a fresh perspective and bold new ideas to Canada’s most glaring piece of unfinished business: the place of Indigenous peoples within the country’s political and economic space. This vital second edition features a foreword by award-winning activist Naomi Klein and an all-new chapter co-authored by Law professor Nicole Schabus and Manuel’s daughter, Kanahus, honouring the multi-generational legacy of the Manuel family’s work.
The contention of this book is that the church is not being what it should be to the world as a result of tolerating false or misleading teachings. We need to examine what we have absorbed and get back to the basics of our faith, if we are to live right and be a stronger, more powerful influence in this world. Twelve fundamental topics are discussed with review questions for personal contemplation or for group discussion. My prayer is that the Holy Spirit will help us see the truth through the scriptures that we examine, and that we will understand things the way they were meant to be understood. There is no guarantee that everyone will come to the same conclusions as a result of the scriptures and arguments presented in this book. But this book would achieve its purpose if it results in some serious discussion and questioning of our current understanding and results in some positive changes.
The Final Call: Book 1 - Time To Wake Up by Annie Peterson Pdf
Jason Elliott made his decision to be part of the rapture of the Church when he was twelve in a one-room Christian school. Now a high-profile investigative reporter on assignment in Israel, he, his wife, and his team come to realize this age is rapidly coming to an end, and it was all foretold in the Bible. ¬ They discover the prophecies written 2,500 years ago are unfolding today as if written yesterday. Will the signing of the Israeli-Palestine Peace Agreement mark the beginning of the final seven years to the Battle of Armageddon? Is World War III in the Bible? Is Armageddon the end of the world? In this fast-paced mystery, Satan does his best to derail him, but Jason maintains his Christian values even when he accidentally uncovers the assassination plot of white-collar terrorists that make him and his family their targets, as if to say, "Take that, Satan!"

The Measure of a Nation by Howard Steven Friedman Pdf
If America were a corporation, how would an independent analyst judge its ability to compete against other corporate giants? According to the author, that hypothetical analyst would label America a corporate dinosaur and recommend that the nation either change or face extinction. This book focuses on how to improve America by first comparing its performance with thirteen competitive industrial nations, then identifying the best practices found throughout the world that can be adopted here in the United States. The author lays out some disturbing facts about America’s lack of competitiveness in five key areas: health, education, safety, equality, and even democracy. Taking the approach that "data doesn’t lie," the author notes alarming statistics, for example: -Americans have the lowest life expectancy among all competitor nations. -Americans are at least two times more likely to be murdered and four times more likely to be incarcerated than any other competitor country, including Japan, France, and the United Kingdom. -America shows the sharpest disparity between rich and poor among all nations on its competitor list. Using charts that clearly illustrate the unbiased, party-neutral data, the author uncovers the major problem areas that the nation must address to become a leader again. Homing in on best practices from other countries than can be adapted to the United States, the author plots a course to transform America from a corporate behemoth burdened by internal issues and poor performance to a thriving business with an exciting portfolio of solutions.
