This is a book everyone should read. Woolley's book about her son's journey into the dark depths of gaming disorder is a heartbreaking account and analysis of the progression from normal to full-blown addiction.

A raw hunger gnaws at the soul of theWestern church. Where are the prophets who will discern the emptiness that has crept silently into the body of Christ in the last one hundred years? We long to burn with a passion inside that never ceases.We yearn for the undying flames of revival that Jesus died to give us. But how can we have a revival that never fades out?

In Love with Freedom
Author: Steven E. Aavang
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1456715496
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Based upon her own words, this is the story of a unique individual whose deep love for her native country was overshadowed only by her compelling love for freedom. Born with a pedigree of royalty reaching back to the Byzantine Empire, and riches comparable to the American Rockerfellers, this princess seemed destined to a life of pampered luxury and perhaps a noble charity. Life, however, doesn't always follow the script... especially someone with Catherine's character. In Love With Freedom, a sweeping story of one woman's remarkable lifetime of triumph and tragedy in the kaleidoscope of the twentieth century. The story begins with a toddler snatched from her mother's bosom by her evil father and hidden for thirteen years in a series of orphanages, a pawn in a high stakes game of ransom and revenge. The plucky, fearless, and resourceful child at last escapes and crosses Europe, eventually arriving in Romania on the Orient Express and is declared a princess... but that is only the beginning of her journey. Catherine learns to be a princess, wife, and mother through World War I, the Depression, and epidemics. Yet it is World War II that is her defining moment. Learn how this woman of less than five feet of stature stands up to the despicable Gestapo and the mighty Nazi Armies; earns the moniker 'the Angel of Ploesti' from the 1400 American POWs that are torn from the angry skies of Hitler's most heavily protected resource – Romania's, Catherine's oil fields; and then survives the starvation, pogroms, and death of the Soviet 'liberation' of Eastern Europe. What can she do to escape the barbarism? What can she do to help her country and all those oppressed by the horrors of Communism and dicatorships? The answers are truly amazing and inspiring.

The Trade
Author: Jere Van Dyk
Publisher: PublicAffairs
ISBN: 1610394321
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
A former hostage in the tribal areas of Pakistan returns to meet his kidnappers and uncover how political kidnappings and ransomings take place in the shadows of the world's most lawless territories. In 2014, Jere Van Dyk traveled to Afghanistan to try to discover the motives behind a kidnapping that had occurred six years earlier -- his own. He was haunted by questions about why he was taken and why he was released, and troubled by the refusal of his friends, employer, and government employees to offer him a full account of what they knew. An experienced investigative reporter, he began a quest to interrogate the accuracy of everything he was told, including from the people he trusted most. In pursuing his kidnappers, and the stories of the intermediaries and money men, Van Dyk uncovered not just the story of his own abduction but the operation of what he calls the Trade: the business of kidnapping. Operating according to its own shadowy rules, the Trade has become a murky form of negotiation between criminal groups, corporations, families, and governments who have no formal lines of communication. Van Dyk's journey took him from up near the Tribal Areas of Pakistan, to the tea shops of Kabul, to the Obama White House, and revealed evidence of lucrative transactions and rival bandit groups working under the direction of intelligence services. In its course, he met the families of many Americans who were or are still kidnapped, bargaining chips at the mercy of violent and pitiless extremists who thrive in the world's most lawless spaces.
