Book Description
The message the world hears from the church in America is confusing. Many of us have drifted so far from biblical teaching that those seeking our help cannot find it in the church. The picture of God we present is so removed from biblical truth that even our own children are without froundation and are leaving in great numbers. I do not accept the premise that the non–churched world has rejected God; many have never heard the compelling unfiltered Gospel truth preached with love. When we discard the biblical text and do not teach it to our people we give away the power to help those really needing the church. The church must make her own peace with God before the world can hear the voice of God from the church. Old Stories & Forgotten Lessons, Volume two is a Bible storybook written for adults. Volume two contains the stories of Moses, Joshua, the Judges and the Book of Ruth. The stories are set in time and place with secular history and each is self–contained with lessons gleaned from the stories to help us live our lives in a world which often denies that God exist. These stories should give us courage to face a society which often has angry words for those of us who believe in God. Our children are facing a hostle world which is not their friend; they will often feel isolate because of their belief. They need to know how the heros of our faith lived and led successful lives.

Book Description
"The Hebrew Scriptures, far from being merely a prelude leading up to the New Testament, are replete with theological values that can illumine the Christian life today. The author explicates this thesis by demonstrating how these values are underscored in Old Testament stories. He groups the representative samples of these stories in six chapters: Beginning, Moses and the Exodus, Brothers, Heroes, Kings, and Prophets. Each chapter shows how these "old" stories shed light on the values, concerns, challenges, and ideals of Christians today. Parish Bible studies, college and seminary courses on Old Testament and on preaching, and anyone who wishes to learn more about how Scripture can enrich their lives will benefit from this book."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Whether imaginary or based on real events, stories are at the core of any culture. Regardless of their length, their rhetoric strategies, or their style, humans tell stories to each other to express their innermost fears and needs, to establish a point within an argument, or to engage their listeners in a fabricated composition. Stories can also serve other purposes, such as being used for entertainment, for education or for the preservation of certain cultural traits. Storytelling is at the heart of human interaction, and, as such, can foster a dialogic narrative between the person creating the story and their audience. In literature, this dialogue has been traditionally associated with narrative in general, and with the novel in particular. However, other genres also make use of storytelling, including drama. This volume explores the ways in which American theatre from all eras deals with this: how stories are told onstage, what kinds of stories are recorded in dramatic texts, and how previously neglected realities have gained attention through the American playwright’s telling, or retelling, of an event or action. The stories unfolded in American drama follow recent narratology theories, particularly in the sense that there is a greater preference for those so-called small stories over big stories. Despite the increase in the production of this type of texts and the growing interest in them in the field of narratology, small stories are literary episodes that have been granted less critical attention, particularly in the analysis of drama. As such, this volume fills a void in the study of the stories presented on the American stage.

Book Description
Vivian Manasc, one of the founders of Manasc Isaac Architects, has pioneered sustainable architecture in Canada. Her work in partnership with Indigenous communities has been her greatest inspiration, and it has transformed the very nature of her practice. Through the profound lessons of the seven Grandfather Teachings, Vivian came to understand that the process of planning and designing a building should be a circle, with the beginning and end of the story linked together. The stories Vivian tells in Old Stories, New Ways are also framed by these teachings of Courage, Love, Wisdom, Respect, Truth, Humility and Honesty, with each teaching illuminating an aspect of how working with Dene, Cree, Saulteaux, Métis, Inuit and Inuvialuit communities has influenced her design practice.
