A penetrating look at one of the cities where America's Industrial Revolution began - Lawrence, Massachusetts, in whose redbrick mills wave after wave of European immigrants once found ready employment, a city as reflective of American life today as it was in 1900. In Huddle Fever, Jeanne Schinto, herself a granddaughter of Italian immigrants, makes vivid Lawrence's history: the great textile mills, the influx of Europeans, the huddled tenements, the seminal Bread and Roses strike. More importantly, she shows how today, as the United States undergoes another profound revolution in work, immigrants (mostly from Latin America and Asia) are still arriving in Lawrence. But they find few jobs - only welfare - and an unwelcoming older populace locked in ethnic divisions and the sense that the American Dream has passed them by.
Joy in the Lord Persecuted for her unwavering faith, imprisoned because of her love for God, Jeanne Guyon lived out the life Jesus Christ called her to live. Her true story has been an inspiration to thousands. She discusses: Dealing with times of adversity Understanding true conversion Overcoming suffering Developing strong faith Hearing God’s voice Guyon’s life demonstrates how the love of God can overcome all the trials believers face. This book is a living testimony of the undying faith she found as she experienced the joy of the Lord in the midst of suffering. Discover how you, too, can live joyously, regardless of your circumstances.
This compilation includes five of Guyon's most beloved works: Her Autobiography, Method of Prayer, Way to God, Spiritual Torrents, and Poetry. They have been reproduced unabridged and with minor updating for ease of reading. Do not confuse minor updating with what other publishers have done with Guyon's works. You will not find neatly packaged, sanitized, emasculated writings in this collection. Guyon's tone and style have been carefully preserved so that she might live and communicate with a new generation. Editors have worked for over a year on this compilation to bring to life material that has not been published in over 80 years.
