Sinossi

In my story, I cover my idyllic childhood at home, protected under my mother's wing, where I simply existed in a state of bliss.  This was before the age of six.  At six years of age, I attended primary school and my whole world changed.  I woke up to a world of fear, anxiety and trepidation.  My daymares began and remained with me throughout my primary school days.  Corporal punishment was allowed at our primary school and my teacher took full advantage.  I was just a short time at school when I was beaten for the first time.  I went into shock and I clammed up.  I retreated into myself and I became a very sad and quiet little girl.  I could not understand mental arithmetic and because of this and, instead of being patient and teaching me, my teacher beat me.  This was a regular occurrence.  I never spoke up about this at home.  School was school and home was home, they lived side by side but they never merged.  The poor treatment I received during my primary school years and the impact this abuse had on me affected my self-esteem and confidence for a very long time.  I spent most of my life building myself up and making myself into the strong person that I am today.

    A Selection from RumiEdited by Nathan  Haskell Dole and Belle Walker.Translations by E. H. Whinfield and Reynold H. Nicholson.Narrated by Denis Daly.Jelalu-'d-Din, today know simply as Rumi, was the greatest mystical poet of the golden age of classical Persian literature.  In later years, he renounced the world and founded a famous order of Dervishes called the Maulavis.  He was born at Balkh in 1207, and died in Konya in 1273.Rumi summed up his philosophy as follows: "Shun the company of the base and foolish, and consort with the noble-hearted and the pious. Verily the best man is he who doeth good to men, and the best speech is that which is short and guideth men aright. Praise be to God who is the Only God." Rumi's largest work, the Masnavi is a six-book miscellany of anecdotes and stories derived from Islamic scripture and popular stories, and dates from the final years of the poet's life.  It is considered one of the most significant expositions of Sufism.This recording contains 12 sections from the Masnavi and 17 assorted poems.Production copyright 2024 Voices of Today

    In April 1865, Richmond fell to the Union army and Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to his Northern counterpart, Ulysses S. Grant, at the Appomattox Court House. But the Civil War was far from over. 
     
     
     
    Determined to keep Confederate dreams of secession alive, President Jefferson Davis and his cabinet fled the burning capital city. With Union troops in pursuit, the fugitives rallied loyalists across the South and made plans to escape to Cuba. In the aftermath of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination, a $100,000 bounty was placed on Davis's head. Finally captured in Irwinville, Georgia, the former US senator and secretary of war became a prisoner of the American government. The harsh treatment he received would inflame tensions between North and South for years to come. 
     
     
     
    Meticulously researched and brilliantly told, The Long Surrender brings these dramatic events to vivid, unforgettable life and paints a fascinating portrait of Davis, one of history's most enigmatic figures. By shining a light on this forgotten chapter of the Civil War, bestselling author Burke Davis examines the lasting impact of America's bloodiest conflict on the national character.

    Out of the Shadow of Silence follows the tumultuous journey of a woman thirsting for love against a backdrop of adversity. In this epic rescue mission, God's love challenges the power of abusive behaviors and self-destruction mechanisms. We watch attentively as God's tender mercies meet each desperation with an abundance of peace. We discover the scope of His love and patience, remaining steadfast until every wound is healed and all darkness has been displaced by light. 
    Perhaps you may wonder why I have chosen to write this intro in the third person. Please allow me to explain. My name is Pastor Marilyn Marrero, and this is my story. Despite the fact that I am narrating this true account of my life, the woman you are about to meet is no longer in existence. Even as I write most of the pages of this book, she is unrecognizable to me, nothing more than a distant memory. 
    My deepest hope and prayer is that the same love that rescued me from Out of the Shadows of Silence would bring you into the marvelous light, where old things are made new, and you too can realize the beauty and freedom found in your God-given identity. 
    Let's get started!
