God Talk

Cautions for Those Who Hear God's Voice

By: Ruth A. Tucker

Does God speak?The answer seems clear. Books abound on the topic of hearing God's voice. And many believers testify to God's conversational guidance in their life: "God told me to help you." "I knew it was God speaking to me."Our culture reinforces the idea that speaking--constant speaking--is good and natural and essential. In those rare moments during a day when talking ceases or when we're alone, we quickly find some way to fill the void, whether turning on the television or radio, or calling someone on the phone. With others, and especially with God, we get the message: speaking is good, silence is bad.But still, Ruth Tucker is not afraid to ask the question, "Does God speak?" And her answer might surprise you. She urges caution in speaking about hearing God, pointing out that our privatized spirituality often sets those who hear God on a pedestal and leaves those who don't feeling spiritually inferior. Further, she shows how the expectation of conversation may too easily humanize God in our minds, causing us to approach God with the same attitude we have when we call a friend on the phone. And if God does speak, how can we be sure our own desires are not affecting our interpretation of God's voice?InGod TalkTucker offers us a new paradigm for viewing silence and prayer. Rather than feeling inferior when we don't hear God speak, she helps us lean more deeply on his silent, Spirit-inspired Word. By examining the Trinity, Tucker gives us a new glimpse of how God the Father spoke his words in the past, how Christ the Incarnate Word lived among us, and how the Holy Spirit speaks to us now through Scripture. Here is a probing, thought-provoking read on how our present, active, powerful God relates to us and how we, in turn, should relate to God.

AIM to Be Like JESUS

AIM to Be Like JESUS

By: Mary Ruth Whitley

The Bible is God's description of His creation from the beginning of time to the end of time. Amid all the pages, of wonder and mystery, are people like you and me. AIM to Be Like Jesus describes the thread God has woven around human lives""a thread by which He calls out to mankind. His words are simply, "Here I am! I stand by the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20). While writing the book The BE Attitudes for Christians, I very clearly observed the many characters, whose lives God has given us as examples. It was these characters who inspired me to write my next book, AIM to Be Like Jesus. There were many characters I could have chosen, but I chose people who, in my opinion, portrayed a unique quality. These Bible characters have human attitudes that they purposely chose to use for God. This book begins with Abel, who was considered righteous because of his pleasing sacrifice to God. It ends with Jesus, who was righteous, perfect, and was used as the final sinless sacrifice for mankind. The acronym "AIM" is to help the reader focus on: the attitude to be developed, instruction about the characters, and meditation on Scripture about the characters. When characters in the Bible come alive, I often wonder, "Could I be like that?

Talking to Strange Men

By: Ruth Rendell

A lonely man stumbles into a dangerous game in this twisting novel of psychological suspense by the New York Times–bestselling author of The Crocodile Bird. In a desolate alley on the bank of the Thames, a spy slips through the shadows. Mungo is the Director General of English intelligence, and he knows Moscow Centre has been watching him for weeks, but there is no spy in London better at losing a tail. Satisfied he hasn’t been followed, he drops off his message and disappears into the night. It’s a classic scene of Cold War espionage, save for one detail: Mungo isn’t a spy at all. He’s a teenager, playing an epic game of make-believe. John Creevey, still reeling from the implosion of his marriage, is dreaming of taking revenge against his wife’s lover when he discovers one of Mungo’s coded signals. Unaware that the message is simply part of a child’s game, he becomes obsessed with uncovering the rest of the spy network—a tragic misunderstanding that threatens to turn this imaginary war into something very real—and very deadly. “Rendell has brilliantly interwoven these compelling strands into one masterful tale of suspense,” writes Library Journal. Three-time Edgar Award winner Ruth Rendell was a master of psychological suspense, and Talking to Strange Men is one of the most unusual espionage stories in the history of the Cold War.

American Gothic Literature

A Thematic Study from Mary Rowlandson to Colson Whitehead

By: Ruth Bienstock Anolik

American Gothic literature inherited many time-worn tropes from its English Gothic precursor, along with a core preoccupation: anxiety about power and property. Yet the transatlantic journey left its mark on the genre--the English ghostly setting becomes the wilderness haunted by spectral Indians. The aristocratic villain is replaced by the striving, independent young man. The dispossession of Native Americans and African Americans adds urgency to traditional Gothic anxieties about possession. The unchanging role of woman in early Gothic narratives parallels the status of American women, even after the Revolution. Twentieth-century Gothic works offer inclusion to previously silent voices, including immigrant writers with their own cultural traditions. The 21st century unleashes the zombie horde--the latest incarnation of the voracious American.

The House of Stairs

By: Ruth Rendell

From a New York Times–bestselling author: A novelist pieces together the murderous past of an old friend—“smoldering suspense . . . literally unputdownable” (Time Out). When writer Lizzie Vetch has tea with her old friend, Bell Sanger, the women are reunited for the first time in nearly two decades. Limbo years, Lizzie calls them, full of “all the terrible things” that passed between them. Specifically, a murder for which Bell served time, and has only recently been released from prison. Seemingly out of kindness, Lizzie agrees to let Bell move back into the House of Stairs, the five-story Notting Hill boardinghouse where, seventeen years ago, a dreadful crime was committed. Maybe here, among the other odd residents, Lizzie can help pull Bell’s life together again. But is it compassion or something else? Because the more Lizzie’s long-suppressed memories are stirred, the more her motives for keeping Bell close are called into question. As for Bell, she has her own reasons for moving back into the House of Stairs with Lizzie. It’s not to put the past behind them. It’s to confront it, step by step. “Revealed in baleful flashbacks, a chilly obsession takes shape, a convicted murderess and a cruel design sidle out of the shadows” (The Observer) in Edgar Award winner Ruth Rendell’s “compelling and disturbing” psychological thriller (The Sunday Times).

Blood and Steel

Ryan White, the AIDS Crisis and Deindustrialization in Kokomo, Indiana

By: Ruth D. Reichard

Set in the 1980s against a backdrop of the AIDS crisis, deindustrialization and the Reagan era, this book tells the story of one individual's defiant struggle against his community--the city of Kokomo, Indiana. At the same time as teenage AIDS patient Ryan White bravely fought against the intolerance of his hometown to attend public school, one of Kokomo's largest employers, Continental Steel, filed for bankruptcy, significantly raising the stakes of the fight for the city's livelihood and national image. This book tells the story of a fearful time in our recent history, as people in the heartland endured massive layoffs, coped with a lethal new disease and discovered a legacy of toxic waste. Now, some 30 years after Ryan White's death, this book offers a fuller accounting of the challenges that one city reckoned with during this tumultuous period.

The Cat

Behaviour and Welfare

By: Bjarne O. Braastad,Anne McBride,Ruth C. Newberry

This book has been translated, adapted, and extended from a Norwegian bestseller. It provides a fascinating insight into all aspects of the behaviour of domestic cats. Its accessible and informative style means it is applicable to cat owners, students, biologists, veterinarians, animal nurses and technicians, and others working with cats or wanting to learn more about them. The depth of knowledge provided will enhance cat welfare. Learn about feline behaviour throughout a cat's lifespan, and our role in helping kittens develop into happy, well-balanced adult cats. Read about cat communication, their social interactions, free-roaming and hunting behaviour, and differences in personality types and breeds. Recognize behavioural problems and how to prevent or deal with them to enhance a cat's welfare based on insights into learning theory, emotions and motivations. Learn more about who cat owners are, why and how we keep cats, and how cats can benefit our own mental and physical health. See videos and beautiful colour photographs that complement the explanations in the text.
