Beschreibung

Many readers think that Emily Dickinson rejected religion and wanted nothing to do with God. And yet her poetry and life tell a deeper story. Looking closely at twenty-five rare and resonant poems, this intimate portrait reveals how Dickinson occasionally believed, thoughtfully doubted, and in her divine wrestling, met God. In chapters on belief, prayer, mortality, immortality, and beauty, Kristin LeMay uncovers the riches of Dickinson's spiritual life and tells of her own search for God between the lines of the poems Dickinson called "hymns."

    One minute Jim Zervanos was carrying his one-year-old boy to a baseball game; the next, he was in the ER, where for days he lay in limbo, being strangled from the inside. Teams of the best doctors were stumped by his worsening condition, before telling him there was nothing they could do. 
    That Time I Got Cancer: A Love Story, is about experiencing joy even in desperate times. It's about the relationships that anchor us, even as they must be entirely redefined. At forty-one, married, with a young son, Jim said goodbye to his family. When a brilliant new surgeon performed a radical operation, Jim was diagnosed with lymphoma, which led to chemotherapy and an uncertain road to recovery. Five years would pass before Jim began to understand what he had endured. Through mortality and back to life, this is the inspiring journey of a man awakened to the full experience of being alive, and being present for it all.

    Dennis Murphy is without question the greatest professional sports promoter in U.S. history.  He single-handedly created the American Basketball Association, World Hockey Association, World Team Tennis, Roller Hockey International, and many other professional sports leagues.  Without him, there would be NO San Antonio Spurs winning 4 NBA championships, NO Indiana Pacers, NO Denver Nuggets, NO Brooklyn Nets, as well as NO Edmonton Oilers winning 5 NHL Stanley Cup championships, and NO New England Whalers, creating uncounted thousands of jobs.  The list goes on and on, with dozens of pro sports teams created by Dennis Murphy now worth several billions of dollars.  In fact, without his A.B.A. league showing the value of the 3-point shot, there would be NO 3-point shot in today’s N.B.A.  In addition, without his W.H.A. and R.H.I. leagues, there would be NO sudden-death overtime and 4-on-4 play in today’s N.H.L.  On top of all that, without him ‘making waves’, all pro sports players today might still be forced to stay with their initial draft team, forever.  It is now time to give this man his due credit in sports history.  This unique audiobook includes the actual interviews of Dennis Murphy as he talks about his creations in his own words...!!!  The introduction and epilogue are provided by the long-time LA Lakers announcer, John Ireland.
