Book Description
Climbing Further up Veritas Mountain is a beacon of light in the coming tsunami of darkness called the Religion of Self. It offers a foundation in Truth within the storm of moral relativism. It is a great resource for those who are curious about the basic principles of the Christian faith, for those in the faith who are learning how the faith applies to the contemporary norms of our day, and for those Catholics who have always gone through the motions of their faith but do not quite know why. Many of us live by the standards of behavior we set for ourselves. We make up our own code of morality and we make up our own rules. If we believe that morality and Truth are relative and individual, we cannot believe in God. God defines perfection in all areas. He is perfect Love, Mercy, Power, Justice, Knowledge, and Ultimate Reality. If you really believe in God, you therefore must believe in objective Truth. In discovering that There is a God and I am not Him, I began to understand that there is objective, unadulterated Truth: Truth that is still true whether I like it or not; Truth that is still true whether or not I have a different opinion; Truth that is still true whether or not I have the ability to live up to that standard. Truth is not a democracy. Truth is not an opinion poll. Truth is Reality. I have the free will to accept itor reject it and practice Ryanism. If There is a God and I am not Him, then there is Truth that transcends the desires of my will and what I prefer to make up on my own.

Odyssey in Love
Author: Robert A. Young
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475978634
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
Odyssey in Love is a fascinating documentary of two madly in love Catholic-Christian souls who became one in spirit and who are attempting to follow Gods will for their lives. The forty-seven year story of Bob and Mary Young, as related in their boring annual Christmas letters and family photos, provides a laugh-out-loud recollection of co-creating and raising nine children and, by proxy, twenty-five grandchildren... so far. Bob and Mary believe that this brief earthly journey is an adventure in God and with God, and, that by doing His will in this life, they will join Him and their loved ones in an eternal adventure of divine love in the next life! Their Christmas story highlights that conviction. Odyssey in Love reflects the Light that emanates from our Father in this age of moral darkness, and fills each of us with a burning hope and expectation that we too will fulfill our destiny and experience fully our adventure in the Son, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!

Category : Sports & Recreation

Pages : 312
Book Description
What does it take to be one of the world's best high-altitude mountain climbers? A lot of fundraising; traveling in some of the world's most dangerous countries; enduring cold bivouacs, searing lungs, and a cloudy mind when you can least afford one. It means learning the hard lessons the mountains teach. Steve House built his reputation on ascents throughout the Alps, Canada, Alaska, the Karakoram and the Himalaya that have expanded possibilities of style, speed, and difficulty. In 2005 Steve and alpinist Vince Anderson pioneered a direct new route on the Rupal Face of 26,600-foot Nanga Parbat, which had never before been climbed in alpine style. It was the third ascent of the face and the achievement earned Steveand Vince the first Piolet d"or (Golden Ice Axe) awarded to North Americans. Steve is an accomplished and spellbinding storyteller in the tradition of Maurice Herzog and Lionel Terray. Beyond the Mountain is a gripping read destined to be a mountain classic. And it
