Pages : 352
Book Description
So begins Sir Wyvern Pugilist's new guide for preparing the young to engage the snarly and slimy monsters presently inhabiting our world. Lest you think, however, that this is a manual for anyone casually contemplating a match with a dragon, read on. Pugilist makes it clear that this is no small task, and he pulls no punches. He alternately yells and cajoles, pleads and flatters—whatever it takes to grow his students into bona fide Dragon Slayers. But be careful: This is only for those who are most serious about facing the malicious monsters head-on! "Would that all Dragon Slayers wrote like this! Wyvern Pugilist, where have you been all our lives?" The Boston Post and Intelligentsia "It was not until I read this guide that I discovered I have used all the wrong methods in fighting dragons." An Anonymous Dragon Slayer in California "There is no doubt that Sir Wyvern Pugilist's detailed guidebook will spring to the top of the bestseller lists in no time. I suggest you buy yours now, before the title sells out and you have to wait in line for more copies. Because wait-in-line you will!" Joanne de Arc, Director Emeritus, French Institute for the Slaying of the Dragons "Congratulations to Paraclete Press for successfully persuading Sir Wyvern to put pen to paper and for giving us this new manual on Dragon Slaying! It is long overdue! We enthusiastically recommend this guidebook for young and old alike, it's just that good." Slayers' Weekly

Thematic Guide to World Mythology
Author: Lorena Laura Stookey
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313039372
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
All around the world, myths address questions that humans have always posed about their origins, their environments, their ultimate destinies, and the meanings of their lives. This book examines 30 common motifs that thread their way through mythological tales across history and around the globe. The themes are presented in alphabetical order, moving from The Afterlife and Animals in Myth to The Underworld, World Tree, and Ymir Motif. Each thematic section defines and discusses a single recognizable motif, compares a number of different mythological traditions, and traces the repeated occurrences of one of these patterns through several different categories of narratives. The discussion of The Afterlife, for example, examines the theme's earliest known occurrences in ancient Mesopotamia and compares them with those in Greek, Aztec, Norse, and other ancient cultures, as well as with contemporary views from Innuit and Polynesian cultures. A glossary provides concise definitions of recurring terms. A list of suggested readings on these topics will further aid students who desire to deepen their knowledge of world mythology.

Future Men
Author: Douglas Wilson
Publisher: Canon Press & Book Service
ISBN: 1885767838
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
How do we build our sons to be tough but not arrogant? mannered but not soft? imaginative but not lazy? bold but not hollow? Future Men is a Christian guide to raising strong, virtuous sons, contrary to the effeminacy and sentimentalism of contemporary culture. When Theodore Roosevelt taught Sunday school for a time, a boy showed up one Sunday with a black eye. He admitted he had been fighting and on a Sunday too. He told the future president that a bigger boy had been pinching his sister, and so he fought him. TR told him that he had done perfectly right and gave him a dollar. The stodgy vestrymen thought this was a bit much, and so they let their exuberant Sunday school teacher go. What a loss. Unbelief cannot look past surfaces. Unbelief squashes; faith teaches. Faith takes a boy aside and tells him that this part of what he did was good, while the other part of what he did got in the way. "And this is how to do it better next time." As we look to Scripture for patterns of masculinity for our sons, we find them manifested perfectly in the life of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the one who set the ultimate pattern for friendship, for courage, for faithfulness, and integrity.

Author: Michael Winkelman
Publisher: Covenant Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1645594319
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
Life is a struggle. Most people understand this, but most don't understand the true nature of this struggle. The struggles of life are due to a spiritual conflict that is being waged between God and his enemy. At the foundation of this struggle is the heart of man. We feel this fight being waged inside of us every day, but for many, the fight is lost because they do not understand its true nature. For the disciples of Jesus Christ, the nature of the conflict has been exposed, and they can see what drives the fight that is inside of all of us. But for many Christians, understanding how to conquer the forces that relentlessly siege their hearts in day-to-day life seems like a losing battle. Sing Your Warsong, Christian! serves as a spiritual handbook that outlines strategies and tactics that will enable Christians to overcome the forces that seek to destroy them. Along with the handbook is a sixty-day devotional that will help equip the reader each day for the fight. At the core of this guide and devotional is the "warsong" concept--praising God in the midst of battle. Are you struggling? Does it seem the spiritual forces of darkness have pressed in on all sides? Take heart. Read Sing Your Warsong, Christian! and learn how to fulfill your purpose and live under the covering of Christ's victory. Sing your warsong!
