Nine Decades Of Memories

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Memories are short, pop up out of nowhere, do not come in chronological order, or any order at all and do not come with characters dressed in pin-striped suits or polka-dot shirts! Memories are recollections of events that have occurred during your lifetime. They deal with sickness, health, the weather, tornadoes, your family, friends, childhood, job, and more. Some memories are warm and make you smile; some bring tears, and other brings laughter. Ninety years has left many memories with me, and in this book, I have jotted down dozens of memories as I recall them to share with you. Memories are short; therefore, the chapters are short, making this book an easy read.

Grace is Always Much More in Poetic Reconciliation

By: Orville Davis

From a near death experience in 1967 I had many lingering questions. It's now fifty years in the future and I've finally come to peace, with understanding, of my personal life's journey. I always knew in my heart, the joy and amazement I felt in that brief moment of time. My passion now is to share it to all from the perspective, of no doubt. I'm not the author of this book of poems. My Higher Power is. My work was to awake from my sleep with his thoughts flowing through my mind. I always had ten sharpened pencils and a clip board at the ready. He kept me pretty busy for months before sunrise. The end result was my awakening, and understanding of Apostle Paul's, "Much More Grace". So what caught my eye and kept me up at night? Four little verses. (1) For as in Adam all die, "even so", in Christ shall all be made alive. 1Corththians 15:22 (2), Therefore as by the offense of "one" judgment came unto "all" men to condemnation; "even so", by the righteousness of the "one" free gift came unto "all" men unto justification of life. Romans 5:18 (Notice the two "even so's" in these previous verses?) These are reciprocals 100% or scriptures you've bent. Like an hour glass of sand, all has to filter down, before, you flip again. All that died in Adam, are the same all, made alive in Christ! (3) Moreover the law entered, that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, Grace did "Much More" abound. Romans 5:20 (4) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that Grace may abound? Romans 6:1 Do you see, the 180 turn around? See the opposite spin? Now everyone wins! The new spin! Where sin abounds, Grace will always abound "Much More"! Why, "Grace is always Much More" in Poetic Reconciliation.

The Seven Churches of Asia Minor

Their Locations, Characteristics, and Christ Introducing Himself to them in Seven Different Ways

By: Dr. Orville R. Beckford Sr.

If you have ever read about the seven churches of Asia Minor and wondered what they are all about, this book will help you get a deeper insight into the character of these churches. You will get a look at their geographical locations, their historical backgrounds, and their experiences that shaped the way Christ addressed them. Christ introduced himself to these seven churches in seven different ways because their works were different, and he wrote them according to their works. The church of Ephesus--the first of the seven--left its first love, and the last of the seven, the Church of Laodicea, focused on material wealth without recognizing that Christ was on the outside knocking, seeking the opportunity to come in. The Seven Churches of Asia Minor will take you through each church one by one; it will help you to identify actions for which they were admonished or encouraged. Five out of these seven churches were admonished, warned, and given specific steps to take for their restoration; they could take these steps or face the consequences meted by Christ himself. The Seven Churches of Asia Minor will be an eye-opener for churches and individuals alike.

Justice Deferred

Race and the Supreme Court

By: Orville Vernon Burton,Armand Derfner

“[A] learned and thoughtful portrayal of the history of race relations in America...authoritative and highly readable...[An] impressive work.” —Randall Kennedy, The Nation “This comprehensive history...reminds us that the fight for justice requires our constant vigilance.” —Ibram X. Kendi “Remarkable for the breadth and depth of its historical and legal analysis...makes an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the US Supreme Court’s role in America’s difficult racial history.” —Tomiko Brown-Nagin, author of Civil Rights Queen: Constance Baker Motley and the Struggle for Equality From the Cherokee Trail of Tears to Brown v. Board of Education to the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act, Orville Vernon Burton and Armand Derfner shine a powerful light on the Supreme Court’s race record—uplifting, distressing, and even disgraceful. Justice Deferred is the first book that comprehensively charts the Supreme Court’s race jurisprudence, detailing the development of legal and constitutional doctrine, the justices’ reasoning, and the impact of individual rulings. In addressing such issues as the changing interpretations of the Reconstruction amendments, Japanese internment in World War II, the exclusion of Mexican Americans from juries, and affirmative action, the authors bring doctrine to life by introducing the people and events at the heart of the story of race in the United States. Much of the fragility of civil rights in America is due to the Supreme Court, but as this sweeping history reminds us, the justices still have the power to make good on the country’s promise of equal rights for all.

My Old Home

A Novel of Exile

By: Orville Schell

A uniquely experienced observer of China gives us a sweeping historical novel that takes us on a journey from the rise of Mao Zedong in 1949 to the Tiananmen Square uprising in 1989, as a father and his son are swept away by a relentless series of devastating events. It's 1950, and pianist Li Tongshu is one of the few Chinese to have graduated from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Engaged to a Chinese-American violinist who is the daughter of a missionary father and a Shanghai-born mother, Li Tongshu is drawn not just by Mao's grand promise to "build a new China" but also by the enthusiasm of many other Chinese artists and scientists living abroad, who take hope in Mao's promise of a rejuvenated China. And so when the recently established Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing offers Li Tongshu a teaching position, he leaves San Francisco and returns home with his new wife. But instead of being allowed to teach, Li Tongshu is plunged into Mao's manic revolution, which becomes deeply distrustful of his Western education and his American wife. It's not long before his son, Little Li, also gets caught up in the maelstrom of political and ideological upheaval that ends up not only savaging the Li family but, ultimately, destroying the essential fabric of Chinese society.

Charles Gravier, Comte de Vergennes

By: Orville T. Murphy

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Charles Gravier, Comte de Vergennes

French Diplomacy in the Age of Revolution, 1719-1787

By: Orville T. Murphy

This is the first complete study of Charles Gravier, Comte de Vergennes, one of the most distinguished diplomats and statesmen of eighteenth-century France. Vergennes represented France as a diplomat in Germany, Constantinople, and Stockholm, and was Louis XVI's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Orville Murphy traces Vergennes' career as he steadily rose from the provincial nobility of the robe to the ranks of the court aristocracy; from the post of an obscure diplomat to the lofty position of Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Murphy, however, has written much more than an interesting biography. The book develops a link between diplomatic personalities, the foreign policies of the French kings Louis XV and Louis XVI, and the contemporary social, economic, and political problems during much of the eighteenth century. Indeed, Vergennes and his policies are central to any study of the American Revolution, the underlying causes of the French Revolution, and of the subsequent "Age of Revolutions" in Europe.

The Tiananmen Papers

By: Liang Zhang,Andrew J. Nathan,Perry Link,Orville Schell

On the night of June 3-4, 1989, Chinese troops violently crushed the largest pro-democracy demonstrations in the history of the communist regime. In this extraordinary collection of hundreds of internal government and Communist Party documents, secretly smuggled out of China, we learn how these events came to pass from behind the scenes. The material reveals how the most important decisions were made; and how the turmoil split the ruling elite into radically opposed factions. The book includes the minutes of the crucial meetings at which the Elders decided to cashier the pro-reform Party secretary Zhao Ziyang and to replace him with Jiang Zemin, to declare martial law, and finally to send the troops to drive the students from the Square. Just as the Pentagon Papers laid bare the secret American decision making behind the Vietnam War and changed forever our view of the nation's political leaders, so too has The Tiananmen Papers altered our perception of how and why the events of June 4 took the shape they did. Its publication has proven to be a landmark event in Chinese and world history.

You Are Not ONLY HUMAN

A Study on Our Human and Divine Nature

By: C. Orville McLeish

Thus far, we have not begun to tap into our human potential. With the upsurge of Christian Mystics in this era, there is a growing revelation of who we really are in God that has a startling resemblance to who Jesus Christ was as a man walking this earth. This phenomenal spiritual awakening of epic proportions is sweeping the globe, with no indication of dissipating anytime soon. It is the emergence of the glorious church prophesied in Ephesians 5, “…without spot or wrinkle or any other blemish.” Everyone alive today, including you, has the divine privilege to choose whether to participate in this emergence or remain a slave to religious and institutionalized bondage. This book explores the possibilities that exist within our DNA that have already been discovered, and dares to explore even further possibilities hinted at but not yet experienced by most. The cold climate of ignorance has suffocated the true church of the living God long enough, and it is time to emerge. You are a child of God, not a servant and not a slave. The potential within you is equal to that of Jesus Christ, and Adam and Eve before they fell to sin. Sin has encased us within a body of limitations, weakness, and insufficiency, but God has dealt with sin. Now the only thing that separates you from true union with God, and participating in His divine nature, is your own choice.

Nave's Topical Bible

By: Orville James Nave

Nave's Topical Bible, " the best known of all topical bibles, has been a valuable Bible-study reference and a best-seller for more than 75 years. It is a comprehensive digest of over 20,000 topics and subtopics with more than 100,000 associated Scripture references. The most significant references for each topic actually include the full text of the verse cited--saving the need to separately look up each verse. Because "Nave's "groups verses by "idea" (or "topic"), it offers a better overview of relevant Scriptures than a concordance, which only lists or indexes verses according to specific words. This edition also includes the helpful Scripture index (left out of some other editions), which makes it possible for the reader studying a particular biblical text to locate every topic and grouping of Scripture in "Nave's "whenever a particular verse is included. That way, it is possible for the reader to study either all the verses related to a particular topic "or" all the topics related to a particular verse--it works both ways. For the pastor or teacher interested in saving hours of time but not willing to give their second best, and for anyone wanting to be challenged by what God has to say about a given subject, "Nave's Topical Bible" is the passport that will allow immediate and successful entry to the many points of interest.
