Crusoe Castaways and Shipwrecks...

Mike Rendell

“Fascinating” stories of real-life people and events that inspired the author of the classic adventure novel Robinson Crusoe (Historical Novel Society).   This book looks at some of the stories that inspired Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson Crusoe—stories of bravery, determination, and good fortune, as well as human negligence, sheer stupidity, and bad luck. In addition to an overview of Defoe’s life and his monumentally successful novel, it also considers some of the reasons why people found themselves cast away—as a result of being wrecked, abandoned as a punishment, or marooned by pirates, or even out of deliberate choice.   Major hurricanes in the eighteenth century causing huge damage to shipping and loss of life are also covered, along with catastrophes when ships were lost, and astonishing tales of survival in the face of adversity—down in the Falklands, in the Caribbean, and off the coast of Australia. It looks at how being cast away brings out the best in some—and in others the very worst. And it examines perhaps the most astonishing story of them all—sixty slaves abandoned on a desolate treeless island in the Indian Ocean and left there for fifteen years, some of whom survived against all odds.

Healing Ableism - Stories About...

Darla Schumm

Most people encounter disability at some point in their lives, either in their own bodies or through a friend or loved one. Faith leaders, sacred texts, and members of religious communities frequently offer religious teachings and metaphors as explanation for the presence of disability, but rarely do we hear the voices of people living with disabilities reflecting on their experiences of God, faith, or religious life. In Healing Ableism: Stories about Disability and Religious Life, Darla Schumm explores the extraordinary stories of people with disabilities who struggle with the ordinary human challenges of faith and doubt, exclusion and inclusion, and injustice and justice. Blending candid story-telling, cultural critique, and theory, Schumm invites listeners to reflect on the experiences of people with disabilities in religious communities and organizations. Schumm argues that it's not disability that needs healing, it's ableism that needs healing. In the final chapter, Schumm offers accessible love as one avenue for healing ableism.

End-times Handbook The: Vol 2:...

Buck Hurlbut

Jesus told us one definitive sign that must happen before His return: the appearing of the abomination of desolation. We are told in two gospels to know what it is and to understand its impact on us and the world. Did you know that we are only two prophetic signs away from the appearing of the beast of the Revelation? Did you know that 99.3% of the world is already in a biometric identity system that will give the beast control over every financial transaction in the world? We are also only two signs away from his control and murderous attack against Christians and Jews. In this volume of the End Times Handbook, we discover the abomination of desolation in Daniel, we prove the one to whom it points, we learn the personality of the final world ruler, we discover what to expect during his rule, we discuss the infamous mark of the beast, we learn how Christians and Jews will be affected during his rule, we discuss the timing of his appearance, the timing of Jesus return in light of his appearing and how much of the end times the elect of God will experience before being caught away to meet Jesus in the clouds. Jesus is clear in Matthew 24:29-31 that His elect will not be gone before the beast appears: Are you ready for what is ahead? In this volume of the End Times Handbook, we grapple with the discomfort of Scripture as we learn how much of the beast kingdom the elect will experience and the signs for which to watch. Now is the time to get ourselves and others ready for what is ahead. If we wait until these events happen, it will be too late. How ready are you? This book narrated by the author will help you find out.
