Life moves pretty quickly these days. And, in the rush to make a living, we sometimes forget to live. The 7 book makes a wonderful gift because it inspires us to stop and look around with fresh eyes. To break out of our routines. To reconnect with all the things that are truly important to us. And to savor and treasure lifenot just now and then, but every day of the week. The 7 book is the fourth addition in the best-selling Life by the Numbers series, and it is easily one of the most inspiring to give or receive.
The Week
Author: David M HenkinPublisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300263066
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
An investigation into the evolution of the seven-day week and how our attachment to its rhythms influences how we live We take the seven-day week for granted, rarely asking what anchors it or what it does to us. Yet weeks are not dictated by the natural order. They are, in fact, an artificial construction of the modern world. With meticulous archival research that draws on a wide array of sources—including newspapers, restaurant menus, theater schedules, marriage records, school curricula, folklore, housekeeping guides, courtroom testimony, and diaries—David Henkin reveals how our current devotion to weekly rhythms emerged in the United States during the first half of the nineteenth century. Reconstructing how weekly patterns insinuated themselves into the social practices and mental habits of Americans, Henkin argues that the week is more than just a regimen of rest days or breaks from work, but a dominant organizational principle of modern society. Ultimately, the seven-day week shapes our understanding and experience of time.

THE RAPTURE REFLECTION
Author: Gregg R. NystromPublisher: Gregg R. Nystrom
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
The debate over the timing of the Rapture has not waned. Will the faithful Church be taken up before the Tribulation, somewhere in the middle of it, or at the very end? In this work, I show an incredible Biblical pattern that clearly indicates a Pre-Tribulation Rapture. Along the way, further proof that there will be 7,000 years of human history corresponding to the seven days of Creation is offered. The last thousand years will be a sabbath millennium of rest instituted at the Second Coming of Jesus, and we are living in the brief window of time when the Rapture and Tribulation that proceeds this Millennial Reign of Christ must occur! The third section of the book answers some of the scientific objections to the Rapture, the 7,000 years, and some of the other literal history and prophecies of the Bible. It's time to wake up, because we are approaching the End of Days!
Reflections

ISBN: 1466958227
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
The book chronicles James Jeffers' life from about age two but it purposefully falls short of being either memoirs or autobiography. With this work he has attempted to simply record for his children, grandchildren, and others the wonderful events of his life as he experienced them. The book covers thousands of miles of travel along with living and working with peoples of differing cultures on three continents and in the Caribbean, five foreign countries, and fifteen different states spanning the nation from coast to coast to coast.
