The Book of Jasher is an apocryphal book that was taken out of the Old Testament in The Bible. It covers the early period presented in Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Joshua in more detail.
If God is really at work in our lives, how can we see His active involvement in our circumstances? Seasons: Stories of Loss, Light, Hope and Harvest tells the story of an ordinary woman who has taken faith steps that haven’t always turned out the way she envisaged. But what Celina Mina discovered is this: When we apply to our inner world what nature’s seasons teach us, we begin to see that every situation, event, heartache, relationship and success leads to meaning, redemption and fulfilment. Through vulnerable personal stories about grief, healing, calling, love and motherhood, combined with biblical teaching, Celina invites you on a journey to understand why we all need autumn’s loss, winter’s light, spring’s hope and summer’s harvest. Reflection questions and practical tips are included at the end of the audiobook to enable listeners to apply the teaching to their own season of life. Celina Evelyn Mina is a preacher, teacher and writer, and loves helping people apply biblical principles to everyday living. She is a part of the communication team at her local church, ARK CPH. Celina is a gifted communicator known for the way she unpacks Scripture and weaves personal stories into her messages to illustrate the relevance and power of the Bible in all areas of life. Based in Copenhagen, Denmark (but always an Aussie at heart!), Celina is married with two children and enjoys reading, going to concerts and exhibitions, being by the ocean, having meaningful conversations and drinking chai lattes. Seasons: Stories of Loss, Light, Hope and Harvest is her first book.Ver libro
You've read the shocking one-sided tale of international drug kingpin Owen Hanson in Rolling Stone, VICE, and the LA Times—but now he's ready to tell his side of the story. A surfer kid from Redondo Beach, California, Owen Hanson was still in his twenties when he found himself the leader of a multi-million-dollar criminal empire. What began as an attempt to fit in with the rich kids at the University of Southern California soon grew into gambling and loan sharking, which then opened the door to drug trafficking and money laundering. Hanson wasn't just involved in this stuff—he excelled at it. Living the fast-paced lifestyle of the rich and famous, Hanson felt he was finally making his father proud, never mind the questionable ethics and obvious danger of it all. But with the cartel, a serious drug-abuse problem, and the pursuit of the FBI all threatening to overtake him, it wouldn't be long before his lifestyle caught up with him. The California Kid follows Owen from his roots as a USC star athlete from a broken home, where his idolization of the rich and famous began, to his descent down a dangerous path where he would stop at nothing to earn the love and acceptance of his absent mother and the respect of his father. The story that follows is almost too wild to believe—but Owen bears the twenty-one-year sentence to prove it.Ver libro

Katherine Helen Maud Marshall was born on the 9th September 1867 in Murree, then part of British India, but now Pakistan. For much of her early years she was raised in India and Sri Lanka but returned to England to receive her education. Around 1896 she married Thomas Diver, an officer in the Royal Warwickshire Regiment. Some years later they returned to England to settle and raise their son. In 1907 her first novel, Captain Desmond VC., was published. This and later works were commercially successful. She specialised in the popular genre of imperial romance and whilst they depicted how the English should behave in India, they also included, somewhat daringly for their time, accounts of mixed marriages. She was a literary contemporary of Kipling’s and great friends with his sister. During Diver’s literary career she wrote novels, short stories, biographies, histories and journalistic items on Indian topics and the English in India. She faded into obscurity after her death. Her philosophy can best be summed up with her words:― ‘’East and West are not antagonistic, but complementary: heart and head, thought and action, woman and man. Between all these 'pairs of opposites' fusion is rare, difficult, yet eminently possible. Why not, then, between East and West?’’ Maud Diver died on the 14th October 1945. She was 78.Ver libro
