Trouble in life is inevitable. Collapse is not. You want to live a "good life" and be a "good person," but life can shift right under your feet and get messy and unpredictable. How do you stay strong and hopeful when you see cracks forming in your relationships, at work, or even in your own character? Is your faith strong enough to help you stand when life tries to knock you down? In How to Stay Standing, Alli Patterson will show you how to build a faith that can withstand anything the world throws at it. Drawing insight from the parable of the wise and foolish builders, Alli helps you get honest about the foundation you are building on and offers three simple rhythms revealed from the words of Jesus--come, hear, practice--that will produce a faith that cannot be shaken and a life that stands firm. You already know the place in your life where something is just not working right now. But the next storm doesn't have to take you down. The waters may be rising, but Jesus left you the wisdom and practical help you need to stay standing. "Alli Patterson's contagious joy and generous spirit make her a trusted guide through Scripture to help you build a life--and faith--that can stand against anything."--Lisa Harper, speaker, Bible teacher, and bestselling author of Life 100 Day Devotional

The first and last book you'll ever need to understand oil and the myth of fossil fuels.The myth of fossil fuels and peak oil has been a part of the North American lifestyle for almost 100 years. Beginning first in the schools, children are anxious for an education but instead are indoctrinated to believe this deception. As a student grows up they hear the same message propagating through governments, media and various interest groups, eventually accepting it as a scientific fact. But the truth is now within your grasp in finding this book. In Oil, The 4th Renewable Resource, you’ll learn: How the myth of fossil fuels begins. How oil corporations are taking advantage of this myth. The beginning of the abiotic oil theory in 1877. How the myth of global warming and oil corporations go hand in hand. Which renewable resource is the best. And what actions you can take to affect change in the schools and government policy.
Ideological science will never lead to genuine growth. The peer-reviewed process is completely broken. Are you for/against climate change? You can back it up with peer-reviewed articles. Against GMOs? There are peer-reviewed articles for that as well. Are you for/against abortion? What about gene-editing? AI? Global trade? Gun control? Unions? Education? Whatever issue you have, there's a peer-reviewed article that you can use to defend your beliefs. That's not objective science. That's ideological junk science. How do we fix the peer-reviewed process? What is animal consciousness? How does ESP work? Will technology enable the creation of a new human race? Are you a visionary scientist? Do you want people to accept GMOs, gene-editing, cloning, and synthetic biology? You'll find the answers to all of these questions in Part III.
History shows that the world avoided World War III, partly because of the impact of the Korean War. That standoff war led to “rules of engagement,” which guided the West and the Soviet Union for nearly forty years, ending with the Soviet collapse. The protagonists had decided that they would allow no regional conflict to set off a worldwide nuclear war between them. Too Young for a Forgettable War follows the journey of an eighteen-year old, fresh out of high school and activated for duty in a distant war. His is a coming-of-age story in the most dangerous of environments. The dangers turn out to be not only from the enemy’s weapons but even those of a United Nations ally, whose soldiers mistakenly arrest him as an “enemy agent,” clearly a justification for his execution. Returning to America, he hopes to forget the trauma of his experiences. Decades later, he travels back to Korea and is finally able to come to terms with his wartime experiences. Readers will find parallels between that war’s veterans and those of Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. The author and his fellow veterans reveal vivid personal experiences that extend our knowledge and, perhaps, our empathy with those who served, regardless of age, in any war— however forgettable.
