David Vermillion doesn't own an iPod. He never sends text messages. His taste in music is suggestive of someone twice his age. He's more of an old soul than a Child of the Eighties. Nevertheless, David graduates from NYU with honors, certain a big, impactful future--law school, City Council, maybe even Mayor--is awaiting him. But when the newly graduated David seeks employment in a jobless market, he's quick to panic. He fears he has nothing to show for his hard work but a wasted youth. Enter Boy Red--an up and coming nightclub promoter. Fascinated by Boy Red's perpetual adolescence, David follows Boy Red all the way to the bright lights of Las Vegas. But when Boy Red disappears, David is forced to reclaim his youth alone. On his journey, David meets a colorful cast of characters. Among them, Yvette Coors--an aging ex-supermodel reluctant to accept reality, and Ryan Taylor, the sexy lead singer of the chart-topping, pop punk Hometown Hooligans. But when Boy Red waltzes back into David's life--broke and looking for support--David finds this adventure might just be more than he bargained for. As David struggles with love, loss, and a plethora of both sought-after and unwanted adventures, David must decide just how far he will go to find himself. Viva Lost David, the sardonic debut novel from comedian Jacob Orenge, explores the trends and pop culture of today's Millennial Generation through the eyes of David Vermillion, a lost twenty-something in search of something more, on a life-changing Las Vegas adventure.

The Prayers of Jacob of Serugh

By: Mary Hansbury

Fairacres Publications 177 Jacob of Serugh (451-521) is one of the great poets of the early Syriac tradition. His meditations focus us on the centrality of divine love as he understood it in the context of scripture. These reflections on the mysteries of salvation were prefaces to his homilies; as Sebastian Brock remarks in his Foreword, they ‘are beautiful little gems in their own right.’ In this book, Mary Hansbury presents a selection of the richest and most theologically profound of Jacob’s prayers. They introduce us to his warm pastoral concern for the spiritual and theological formation of the Christians in his care, which has remained lively and accessible down the ages.

Jacob of Sarug's Homily on the Sinful Woman

By: Jacob (of Serug),Scott Fitzgerald Johnson

This edition of Mar Jacob of Sarug's (d. 521) homily on the sinful woman who anoints Jesus at the banquet - widely identified in the west as Mary Magdalene - focuses on the theme of weeping which Jacob describes as the dominant characteristic of repentence. For him, the sinful woman is the example of true Christian contrition. The volume constitutes a fascicle of The Metrical Homilies of Mar Jacob of Sarug, which, when complete, will contain the original Syriac text of Jacob's surviving sermons, fully vocalized, alongside an annotated English translation.

Jacob of Sarug's Homily on Simon Peter, when Our Lord Said, "Get Behind Me, Satan"

By: Jacob (of Serug)

Jacob of Sarug's (d. 521) homily on Simon Peter, when our Lord said, "Get behind me Satan!" (Matt 16:23) touches the themes of Jesus' divinity and death, warfare with Satan, the harrowing of hell, and his relationship with Peter. Peter's rebuke of Jesus' willingness to die gives Jesus (through Jacob) the occasion to explain what his death will accomplish. The volume constitutes a fascicle of The Metrical Homilies of Mar Jacob of Sarug, which, when complete, will contain the original Syriac text of Jacob's surviving sermons, fully vocalized, alongside an annotated English translation.
