We were given life to love God and others. Born in nature and to a lost world with a determined enemy, few ever learn how to love. Be still. Know Him who is love and wants to become love in you. Living is a passage in time through a sea of relationships without a map. Storms of confusion and conflict throw us off course. Most will be lost in the sea. We cannot find our way alone. The Word of God, the abiding Jesus and the Holy Spirit are with us every moment, revealing and guiding us to love the way God does. By way of allegory, a metaphor about wild Maine blueberries, a testimony and essay, the essential form of Gods love is illuminated in A Prophecy of Love to encourage and inspire you. Partake of His greatest blessing and become a light for Him in your life.
In Rio de Janeiro, the spiritual home of world football, and Buenos Aires, where a popular soccer club president was recently elected mayor, the game is an integral part of national identity. Using the football stadium as an illuminating cultural lens, Temples of the Earthbound Gods examines many aspects of urban culture that play out within these monumental architectural forms, including spirituality, violence, rigid social norms, anarchy, and also expressions of sexuality and gender. Tracing the history of the game in Brazil and Argentina through colonial influences as well as indigenous ball courts in Mayan, Aztec, Zapotec, Mixtec, and Olmec societies, Christopher Gaffney's study spans both ancient and contemporary worlds, linking the development of stadiums to urbanization and the consolidation of nation building in two of Latin America's most intriguing megacities.

Discover how important railroads once were to Michigan's Thumb region in this wonderful collection of images. Although the area is best known for its agrarian roots, the railroad operations were involved in so much more, from light industries that fed the auto industry to shipments of fish from Saginaw Bay into eastern markets. Return to a time when everyone knew the route of the "Polly-Ann," local citizens identified the time of day by the sound of a train whistle, and the arrival of a train crew nearly doubled a town's population. Many of the images in this book have never been seen before, or, if so, only in a family's living room, soon to be returned to grandpa's trunk in the attic. These images surfaced to introduce future generations to what railroading in the Thumb once was. In an age when many of these railroad lines have disappeared, it can be hard to believe how many once crisscrossed this area.
