God's People-We Are

A Daily Walk with the Saints

By: Toni Joy

In this book, you will experience the people of the Bible enlightening us how God used them and the roles they played in the plan of God—from the beginning to the end, from Genesis to Revelations. Knowing the characters of the Bible gives an exciting and personal upfront look at how they lived in a crazy world. You will be strengthened and built up in faith to challenge every obstacle that comes your way—courageously. We read about this in Hebrews: By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. By faith, Abel, Cain, Enoch, Abraham were all part of the foundation of this universe. We are the people of God. We play a role in that plan as well. God’s People – We Are covers more than one hundred people of importance in the Bible. The whole book is added for some of the smaller books, separated into daily readings. It gives the Word of God in a people format mixed with personal life application and devotion in a one-year time frame, which makes it an easy daily five-minute reading. This definitely appeals to the busy person that would love to implement biblical reading in their daily schedule. Included are personal testimonies and applications in walking in the fruit of the Spirit. Explore all the dynamites of life: love, hate, relationships, sorrow, money, children, politics, religion, sin, etc., and the people who lived it.

Our Final Hope

By: Joy Coats

A moment in time when all of creation stood still and welcomed the birth of its Creator, stepping out of heaven and into the hearts and lives of the very created... Mary, a young girl, and Joseph, a carpenter, could not have imagined the journey on which they would travel after saying yes to the God of their fathers when He asked them to believe by faith all that He would reveal to them. A journey that would call them to an unyielding and firm determination to be part of the answer to a world's desperate need, the Messiah--Immanuel, God with us. How could the God of creation reach down into their simple lives and bless them with the final hope of a dying and lost world? Can they believe Him for it? In a time when unmarried girls could be stoned for being pregnant before marriage, Mary must forge ahead with complete trust in her heavenly Father for protection and wisdom. Joseph must make a choice to believe all that his betrothed has just told him. Is it possible--the Messiah...in his home? Shepherds and wise men begin the ultimate pilgrimage that will forever change their lives and stories. A jealous king will seek to squash out his existence--He who will be our final and only hope. 2

Over the Storm of Life

God’S Word & Covenant Promises Prevails

By: J. O. Y. Aladetan

Many have surrendered to the lies that the devil tells them while going through challenges. They have given up their destiny and lost focus on eternity as they face the storms of life. Many have cursed themselves, abandoned their vision, and renounced God during their trials of faith, becoming atheists, sorcerers, and occultists and completely turning away from God. Is anything too difficult for God to do? No. Over the Storm of Life was written to inform, to inspire, to bless, and to transform lives and strengthen faith. Faith is called the spiritual horsepower that God has wonderfully and marvelously planted in all human DNA. We can exercise dominion power, like Him and like Jesus Christ, over every storm in our lives. This book is a revelation of the secret armor of God against every storm that tries to contend with the will of God in human lives, showing Gods faithfulness and trustworthiness from eternity past to eternity without end. God will never fail in whatever He wills and promises to do, even when physical circumstances and situations suggest otherwise. Success begins where failure ends! Failure and tribulation are the ladders to move you to the next level when you activate the spiritual horsepower of faith. Trust Gods Word and His covenant promises. Dont settle for the rat race. Strive for Gods inheritance.

31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship (for Girls, by Girls)

By: Cambria Joy Dam-Mikkleson,Tega Faafa,Lauren Groves,Kolby Knell,Alexus Lee,Gabrielle McCullough,Alena Pitts,Yvonne Faith Russell,Tara Sun

As the world experiences a loneliness epidemic, we need friendship as much as we ever have before. People could live their whole lives online. School, church, work, and a social life can all be found on the internet, providing opportunities to trade deep friendships for convenient yet shallow acquaintances. The easier it becomes to be independent, the harder it is to find togetherness––especially for teen girls and young women. Hey Friend: 31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship helps girls know that God made them for friendship. They don’t have to live life alone. Each devotion is written by young women for young women and offers relatable stories of friendship, passages of Scripture, journaling questions, and practical ways to find friends instead of staying isolated. Friendships end, begin, and change all the time, and Hey Friend is every girl's guide to learning how to navigate friendship in changing seasons from switching schools to going off to college to needing to walk away from certain friendships and invest in others. Writers Cambria Joy Dam-Mikkleson, Tega Faafa, Alexus Lee, Lauren Groves, Kolby Knell, Gabrielle McCullough, Alena Pitts, Yvonne Faith Russell, and Tara Sun each write about what the Bible has to say about friendship and what it means for each reader’s friendships today. Their stories are honest and heartbreaking, hilarious and sincere, encouraging and empowering. They beckon readers not to simply take their advice, but to search for what God's Word has to say about community and companionship. These devotions will help young women: handle drama in friendship know what to do when feeling isolated speak highly of friends instead of gossiping find trustworthy friends love friends like Jesus did pray for friends discover the Bible's themes of friendship Hey Friend is a tool for togetherness in a lonely world. It reminds girls that God made people to be with people, and He wants our friendships to flourish.

Voices Long Silenced

Women Biblical Interpreters through the Centuries

By: Joy A. Schroeder,Marion Ann Taylor

Hundreds of women studied and interpreted the Bible between the years 100–2000 CE, but their stories have remained largely untold. In this book, Schroeder and Taylor introduce readers to the notable contributions of female commentators through the centuries. They unearth fascinating accounts of Jewish and Christian women from diverse communities—rabbinic experts, nuns, mothers, mystics, preachers, teachers, suffragists, and household managers—who interpreted Scripture through their writings. This book recounts the struggles and achievements of women who gained access to education and biblical texts. It tells the story of how their interpretive writings were preserved or, all too often, lost. It also explores how, in many cases, women interpreted Scripture differently from the men of their times. Consequently, Voices Long Silenced makes an important, new contribution to biblical reception history. This book focuses on women's written words and briefly comments on women’s interpretation in media, such as music, visual arts, and textile arts. It includes short, representative excerpts from diverse women’s own writings that demonstrate noteworthy engagement with Scripture. Voices Long Silencedcalls on scholars and religious communities to recognize the contributions of women, past and present, who interpreted Scripture, preached, taught, and exercised a wide variety of ministries in churches and synagogues.

Other new material includes chapters on complementary therapy, the use of the day centre, the value of volunteers, diversional therapy and respite care. The chapter on bereavement covers many aspects of grief and loss and there is a sensitive approach to the need for supporting staff in this spe cialized work. Consideration is also given to the needs of dying and griev ing people from differing ethnic backgrounds with varying cultural expectations in a pluralistic society. The third edition offers a broad overview of the support given to the dying person and the carers by medical and nursing staff, physiothera pists, pharmacists, social workers, the chaplaincy and members of the pastoral care team.

Where The River Runs Deep

The Story of a Mississippi River Pilot

By: Joy J. Jackson

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Where The River Runs Deep

The Story of a Mississippi River Pilot

By: Joy J. Jackson

Joy J. Jackson’s Where the River Runs Deep tells two stories—both significant and both fascinating. It is a biography of the author’s father, Oliver Jackson, who spent virtually his entire life on or near the Mississippi River. And it is a history of the river itself, and the many changes that have transformed it in the twentieth century. Born in an oysterman’s camp in south Louisiana, only a few miles from the Gulf of Mexico, and raised in an orphanage in New Orleans, Oliver Jackson (1896–1985) grew up to become a pilot boat crew member, a merchant seaman, a tugboat-man, and ultimately a Mississippi River pilot, the profession to which he had always aspired. Drawing extensively on oral history, including a series of audiotapes her father recorded before his death, Jackson presents a detailed social history not only of her father and his forebears but of a way of life now past. She vividly portrays village life in once-thriving but now-vanished river communities such as Port Eads and Burrwood in the delta below New Orleans, and in such working-class areas of the city as the Irish Channel. And she provides detailed descriptions of the early days of riverboat piloting between New Orleans and Baton Rouge and of tugboat work in the New Orleans harbor. Throughout, she evokes the special passion and respect that pilots have always had for their work and the river. Woven into Jackson’s narrative of her father’s life and career is a history of the profound changes in life and commerce on the Mississippi River since the turn of the century. During Oliver Jackson’s lifetime, cotton gave way to petroleum as the major product transported on the lower Mississippi, while steamboats faded away and were replaced by towboats, with their long lines of barges. After mid-century many of the plantations and rural homesteads that had lined the banks of the river since the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were crowded by the increasing presence of petrochemical plants. Jackson also writes about such calamitous events as the hurricane of 1915 and the great flood of 1927, and she describes the menace of German submarines at the mouth of the Mississippi during America’s early months in World War II. Where the River Runs Deep is a story of river life unlike any other. It will appeal to students of regional history and family history, as well as to anyone fascinated by the lore of the Mississippi.

A People’s History of Computing in the United States

By: Joy Lisi Rankin

Silicon Valley gets all the credit for digital creativity, but this account of the pre-PC world, when computing meant more than using mature consumer technology, challenges that triumphalism. The invention of the personal computer liberated users from corporate mainframes and brought computing into homes. But throughout the 1960s and 1970s a diverse group of teachers and students working together on academic computing systems conducted many of the activities we now recognize as personal and social computing. Their networks were centered in New Hampshire, Minnesota, and Illinois, but they connected far-flung users. Joy Rankin draws on detailed records to explore how users exchanged messages, programmed music and poems, fostered communities, and developed computer games like The Oregon Trail. These unsung pioneers helped shape our digital world, just as much as the inventors, garage hobbyists, and eccentric billionaires of Palo Alto. By imagining computing as an interactive commons, the early denizens of the digital realm seeded today’s debate about whether the internet should be a public utility and laid the groundwork for the concept of net neutrality. Rankin offers a radical precedent for a more democratic digital culture, and new models for the next generation of activists, educators, coders, and makers.

Kiss & Tell

By: Joy Inyamu Akut

What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. Matthew 10:27 (NIV) A kiss that soothes A kiss that cleanses A kiss that heals and forgives A kiss of grace and favor so beautiful, you have no choice but to tell! God, the lover of our souls expresses His love for us daily with the kisses of His grace and mercy. There is a kiss available for everything you go through and so much more When the wind howls, and the clouds grow dark. When you feel lost, and you struggle through storms. When you feel youve fallen too far off from God and you cower and hide in your sin, there is a kiss of forgiveness for you. We have the kisses of God available for everything we go through, every mess we find ourselves in, every trial that comes our way and every moment we celebrate in joy God loves us that much. The author uses everyday experiences to encourage us as we wade through life. Kiss and tell is a book filled with kisses from God in form of words of inspiration, to trust even when the chips are down, to hope even when you feel forlorn, and to call on God and run into His waiting arms of love no matter how much you feel youve failed Him.

By: Herman Francis,Joy Angelyn

Ten Billion Years to Armageddon is a masterpiece novel, a timeless conflict spanning history from the dawn of time, to the here and now, catching glimpses of man's future on planet earth and beyond.

Herman finished his manuscript in 1978, he was talking in his original manuscript about; the Avatar, a Dear John letter and Kingdom of Heaven long before Hollywood tycoons did. His novel can be classified as futuristic realism or fictional fantasy. He left the partly unfinished manuscript to his daughter Joya to complete. So the book became actually a cowritten work between father and daughter. Joya taking the development of the heist story mainly into account and the book adaption. 'I proudly present today; TBYA; the book denied to the public for more than 30 years.' Jo

Limitless Thinking, Limitless Living

Think Big, Ask Big, Expect Big, and Receive Big!

By: Danette Joy Crawford

God Is Calling You to Something Big! Are You Ready for It? Have you set limits on what you “think” God can do in your life? It’s often easier to believe God has big things in mind for other people than to imagine He has great plans and bountiful blessings for us. Why is that? Usually, it’s a result of limited thinking. All around us, we encounter limitations. Some are imposed on us by other people and society; others are inflicted on us by our own damaged mind-set and behavior. We believe, “I’m not qualified,” “My resources aren’t sufficient,” “I’m all alone in this,” or “I’m not anointed.” God wants to completely turn your outlook around. He is a big God who majors in the miraculous, and He wants to help you develop limitless thinking that will enable you to fulfill a God-sized vision. Our God-given potential, our zeal for advancing His kingdom, our divine dreams--these areas of our lives are meant to be without limitation. But most of us haven't prepared for living a limitless life. Having overcome challenging personal, emotional, and financial limitations, Danette Crawford takes you through each step of the process of removing hindrances, enlarging your vision, and increasing your expectations of the big things God wants to do in you, through you, and for you. Thoroughly biblical and practical, Danette shows you how to adopt and maintain limitless thinking for a lifetime of limitless living. Get ready, because your life without limits is about to begin!

John Batman: An Inside Story of the Birth of Melbourne

John Batman: An Inside Story of the Birth of Melbourne

By: Joy Braybrook

John Batman An Inside Story of the Birth of Melbourne A Summary of the Story This book tells the story of how Melbourne was birthed. It begins with Captain Cook’s discovery of Australia and the colonisation that followed at Botany Bay. The quest began to find a suitable location for another settlement in the south of the continent. Although Port Phillip Bay was discovered, its potential was not immediately realised. The penal settlement established at Sorrento by David Collins in 1803 was abandoned within three months and the site of Hobart in Tasmania was chosen for the next development. In 1824 the explorers Hume and Hovell travelled south from Sydney and reached Port Phillip Bay. They recognised the potential of the area but unfortunately Hovell made a mistake regarding its location, which impeded settlement for another eleven years. Hume and Batman had been childhood friends and when Batman, then living in Tasmania, heard about the vast pasturelands available in the area it triggered the dream of taking possession of the land of plenty north of Bass Strait. It would take another nine years before he could assemble a group of influential men to assist him in his quest to claim the riches waiting at Port Phillip Bay. The plan was spearheaded by a group of four men supported by a larger group of investors. Charles Swanston who owned the biggest bank in Australasia controlled the finances, while Joseph Gellibrand, a lawyer who had been Attorney General in Tasmania, organised the legal requirements for the project. John Wedge’s role as surveyor was to map the territory ready for subdivision. John Batman, who was Australian born, brought a large variety of skills to the drawing board. He was thought to be Australia’s greatest tracker, he had captured bushrangers, successfully gathered the remnant of Tasmanian Aborigines as well as being a wealthy landowner. The political climate within the British Parliament at that time was influenced by the recent passage of the Act to Abolish Slavery in 1833. The outpouring of humanitarian feeling generated by this event led to new attitudes towards native rights and title. Within the hearts of these men from Tasmania there developed a desire to establish a settlement that would not only bring them financial gain but also set a benchmark within the British Empire for equitable relationships between native peoples and Europeans. To achieve such an ideal the notion of a treaty gradually developed, modelled on William Penn’s Treaty in Pennsylvania in 1683. Batman’s role was to lead the expedition to Port Phillip, explore the land and make a treaty with the local Aborigines. Unfortunately the timing of this opportunity coincided with the news that he was seriously ill at just 32 years old. The project became a race against his failing health and what was planned as a carefully thought out expedition became a hurried event. John Batman in his barque the Rebecca finally passed through the heads into Port Phillip Bay in May 1835, the first white man to do so in three decades. He was amazed at the quality of the land he found and the beauty of the magnificent harbour. He needed to find the natives so he could execute the treaty that Gellibrand had prepared for him. However on seeing the European vessel entering the bay the Aborigines had sent up smoke signals telling everyone to hide until the clan leaders could meet and work out a strategy for dealing with the situation. Eventually they approached Batman and took him to a ceremonial site they had chosen. The treaty was duly executed but because of Batman’s ill health it was not possible for him to enact all that Gellibrand had written into the pro forma deed. When John Batman returned to Tasmania he was hailed as a hero and referred to as the Tasmanian Penn. He called the settlement to be established by the treaty Batmania. There was still much to be done, since

To Be Indian

The Life of Iroquois-Seneca Arthur Caswell Parker

By: Joy Porter

Born on the Seneca Indian Reservation in New York State, Arthur Caswell Parker (1881-1955) was a prominent intellectual leader both within and outside tribal circles. Of mixed Iroquois, Seneca, and Anglican descent, Parker was also a controversial figure-recognized as an advocate for Native Americans but criticized for his assimilationist stance. In this exhaustively researched biography-the first book-length examination of Parker’s life and career-Joy Porter explores complex issues of Indian identity that are as relevant today as in Parker’s time. From childhood on, Parker learned from his well-connected family how to straddle both Indian and white worlds. His great-uncle, Ely S. Parker, was Commissioner of Indian Affairs under Ulysses S. Grant--the first Native American to hold the position. Influenced by family role models and a strong formal education, Parker, who became director of the Rochester Museum, was best known for his work as a "museologist" (a word he coined). Porter shows that although Parker achieved success within the dominant Euro-American culture, he was never entirely at ease with his role as assimilated Indian and voiced frustration at having "to play Indian to be Indian." In expressing this frustration, Parker articulated a challenging predicament for twentieth-century Indians: the need to negotiate imposed stereotypes, to find ways to transcend those stereotypes, and to assert an identity rooted in the present rather than in the past.

Kaiten

Japan's Secret Manned Suicide Submarine And the First American Ship It Sank in WWII

By: Michael Mair,Joy Waldron

In November 1944, the U.S. Navy fleet lay at anchor deep in the Pacific Ocean, when the oiler USS Mississinewa exploded. Japan’s secret weapon, the Kaiten—a manned suicide submarine—had succeeded in its first mission. The Kaiten was so secret that even Japanese naval commanders didn’t know of its existence. And the Americans kept it secret as well. Embarrassed by the attack, the U.S. Navy refused to salvage the sunken Mighty Miss. Not until 2001, when a diving team located the wreck, would survivors learn what really happened. In Kaiten, Michael Mair and Joy Waldron tell the full story, from newly revealed secrets of the Kaiten development and training schools to gripping firsthand accounts of U.S. Navy survivors in the wake of the attack, as well as the harrowing recovery efforts that came later.

Native American Freemasonry

Associationalism and Performance in America

By: Joy Porter

Freemasonry has played a significant role in the history of Native Americans since the colonial era?a role whose extent and meaning are fully explored for the first time in this book. The work?s overarching concern is with how Masonry met specific social and personal needs, a theme developed across three significant periods of membership: the revolutionary era, the last third of the nineteenth century, and the years following the First World War. Joy Porter places Freemasonry into historical context, revealing its social and political impact as a transatlantic phenomenon at the heart of the colonizing process. She then explores its meaning for many of the key Native leaders over time, for the ethnic groups who sought to make connections with it, and for the bulk of its American membership?the white, Anglo-Saxon Protestant middle class. Porter contends that Freemasonry offered special access to Native Americans through its performance of ritual, an assertion borne out by a wealth of contemporary manuscripts, newspapers, pamphlets, Masonic sermons, orations, and lodge records and writings by Masonic historians and antiquarians gleaned from archives in New York, Philadelphia, Oklahoma, California, and London. Through these documents, she demonstrates that over time, Freemasonry became a significant avenue for the exchange, and perhaps even cocreation, of cultural forms by Indians and non-Indians.
