Of Moose and Men
Author: Torry Martin
Publisher: Harvest House Publishers
ISBN: 0736965262
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Torry Martin—a comedian, actor, and hippie—fled from California to the wilderness of Alaska, searching for answers to life's big questions. He found what he was looking for...and a lot more! A moose got its head stuck in Torry's window. A reindeer was trapped in his kitchen. A bear almost prevented him from reaching his airplane. He once woke up frozen to his cabin floor. Like the Israelites of old, Torry experienced plenty of miracles and mishaps in the wilderness. And like them, he came face-to-face with God and was changed forever. Each of these true stories of Torry's hilarious blunders and misfortunes contains a nugget of truth, but one theme prevails: If God can reclaim and repurpose Torry Martin's life, He can do the same for you and those you love.

Miracles of Life: Shanghai to Shepperton, An Autobiography
Author: J. G. Ballard
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0871403420
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
A final statement from the greatest clairvoyant of twentieth-century literature. Never before published in America, this revelatory autobiography—hailed as “fascinating [and] amazingly lucid” (Guardian)—charts the remarkable story of James Graham Ballard, a man described by Martin Amis as “the most original English writer of the last century.” Beginning with his Shanghai childhood, Miracles of Life guides us from the deprivations of Lunghua Camp during World War II, which provide the back story for his best-selling Empire of the Sun, to his arrival in war-torn England and his emergence as “the ideal chronicler of our disturbed modernity” (Observer). With prose of characteristic precision, Ballard movingly recalls his first attempts at science fiction, the 1970 American pulping of The Atrocity Exhibition—which sprang from his fascination with JFK conspiracy theories—and his life as a single father after the premature death of his wife. “This book should make yet more converts to a cause that Ballard’s devotees have been pleading for years” (Independent).

The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse
Author: Louise Erdrich
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 006174817X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book “Stunning. . . a moving meditation. . . infused with mystery and wonder.” —Atlanta Journal-Constitution In a masterwork that both deepens and enlarges the world of her previous novels, acclaimed author Louise Erdrich captures the essence of a time and the spirit of a woman who felt compelled by her beliefs to serve her people as a priest. The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse deals with miracles, crises of faith, struggles with good and evil, temptation, and the corrosive and redemptive power of secrecy. For more than a half century, Father Damien Modeste has served his beloved Native American tribe, the Ojibwe, on the remote reservation of Little No Horse. Now, nearing the end of his life, Father Damien dreads the discovery of his physical identity, for he is a woman who has lived as a man. To further complicate his quiet existence, a troubled colleague comes to the reservation to investigate the life of the perplexing, possibly false saint Sister Leopolda. Father Damien alone knows the strange truth of Leopolda's piety, but these facts are bound up in his own secret. He is faced with the most difficult decision: Should he tell all and risk everything . . . or manufacture a protective history for Leopolda, though he believes her wonder-working is motivated solely by evil? The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse is a work of an avid heart, a writer's writer, and a storytelling genius.

Author: Beatrice Schuller Schuller
Publisher: Seekers Publishing Books
ISBN: 9781627470605
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The Mystery of Miracles is drawn from a lifetime of experiences and events that the author considers beyond the natural understanding of our finite minds. The book chronicles Schuller's evolving awareness since age three of whom and what God is. The first thirty years of her life were spent stumbling along, puzzled by mysterious events, but unable to tap into that power beyond her own. By sharing these supernatural episodes with you, Schuller seeks to raise your awareness to the basic elements reviewed at the end of each chapter, possibly inspiring you to facilitate miracles in your own life and the lives of others. She believes this is possible when we act upon that connection to the Divine that unites us all. The book is chocked full of OMG miraculous events, written with honesty that sometimes hurts, humor when appropriate, and a passion to persuade each and every one of you-no matter your religion, sect or culture-that you too can experience a transformed life. How is this possible? The author believes all paths for humanity lead to the One Source of all- by any name or label- the God of Unconditional Love and that all can access that Love; all can experience more peace, love, joy and abundance in their lives.

Pages : 192
Book Description
When several friends embark on a winter adventure in the snowy wonderland of Yellowstone National Park and meet a strange old ranger who fills their heads with the possibilities of finding true love in time for Christmas, they quickly find themselves faced with new challenges and thought-provoking ideas. Celeste Norfolk imagined a fun-filled time that would get her friends to try things outside their comfort zones. After a couple of days of high-energy activities, she ends up going solo on a backcountry snowmobile excursion while her friends enjoy the hot tub back at the lodge. Unbelievable events transpire, putting her face to face with a stranger who didn’t realize how much he needed her help. Will she be able to save him from himself, or will her controlling nature be too overwhelming? Angie White is most comfortable in her own routine, close to home. Agreeing to a holiday trip filled with snow and unspeakable dangers was definitely ‘out-of-the-box’ for her. With her anxiety reaching new levels, she can barely cope when her best friend disappears without a trace. Having lost her entire family and facing Christmas alone is almost more than she can bear. A mysterious park ranger’s message haunts her when she is forced to confront circumstances completely out of her control. Perhaps the handsome stranger who crosses her path will be able to provide some answers. Can anything really happen at Christmas if you just believe?
