What was it like, in the Greco-Roman world of the late first century, to sit down to write a gospel, specifically, the Gospel According to Luke? Extensive scholarship has recently been focusing on Luke/Acts, the two-volume New Testament writing. This book uses such scholarship, but in an imaginative way. It sets out to follow Lukas, the author, through the whole process of writing his first part, the gospel. We are given, paragraph by paragraph, the complete gospel text in a vigorous translation, but interspersed with Lukas

I was born curious. Is there a heaven or hell? Why do we die and what happens then? Why are we prejudiced? Why don't people always tell the truth? These and many more such questions weren't answered when I was growing up. I eventually made my own answers, but, still curious, I had to know what other people felt. Was I alone? Or, were their other people out there like me? These are life's little questions that can become big questions if we don't try to satisfy our curiosity about them.

The Rockets' Red Glare

The Rockets' Red Glare

Johns Hopkins University Press

sidottu
This engagingly told and richly illustrated history invites readers to travel back in time and imagine what it would have been like to live through the War of 1812, America's forgotten conflict. Offering readers an impressive array of images-some rarely before seen-and a crisp narrative, the book recounts the war's main battles and campaigns, from William Hull's ignominious surrender at Detroit in 1812 to Andrew Jackson's spectacular victory at New Orleans in 1815. Learn about Oliver H. Perry's remarkable victory on Lake Erie and the ensuing death of the great Shawnee leader Tecumseh. Witness the devastation on the Niagara Front as the balance of power shifted back and forth. Watch as Thomas Macdonough executes a masterstroke on Lake Champlain, winning a great naval battle and saving upper New York from occupation. Experience the demoralizing British raids in the Chesapeake that culminated in the burning of Washington, D.C., and the successful defense of Baltimore that inspired Francis Scott Key to pen "The Star-Spangled Banner." The Rockets' Red Glare recaptures in vivid detail not only the military history of the war but also its domestic and diplomatic history. Authors Donald R. Hickey and Connie D. Clark show why the fragile young republic, which was still a second-rate power, declared war against Great Britain, an established global power. They also explain why Americans remember the conflict as an unalloyed success, even though by the war's end, the United States faced military uncertainty, financial stress, a punishing British naval blockade, and the intractable opposition of Federalists in New England. The thrilling stories and stunning illustrations of The Rockets' Red Glare are sure to capture the imagination of anyone interested in the fascinating history of the War of 1812.

Long overshadowed by the American Revolution and the Civil War, the War of 1812 remains a largely forgotten conflict. Its origins as part of the larger Napoleonic wars layered complex issues that to this day make the conflict difficult to understand. The bicentennial of the War of 1812 is now upon us. With an engaging question-and-answer format, this book offers a concise and informative introduction to the War of 1812, clearing much of the fog that surrounds it.

Glorious Victory

Glorious Victory

Donald R. Hickey

Johns Hopkins University Press
2015
sidottu
Whether or not the United States "won" the war of 1812, two engagements that occurred toward the end of the conflict had an enormous influence on the development of American identity: the successful defenses of the cities of Baltimore and New Orleans. Both engagements bolstered national confidence and spoke to the elan of citizen soldiers and their militia officers. The Battle of New Orleans-perhaps because it punctuated the war, lent itself to frontier mythology, and involved the larger-than-life figure of Andrew Jackson-became especially important in popular memory. In Glorious Victory, leading War of 1812 scholar Donald R. Hickey recounts the New Orleans campaign and Jackson's key role in the battle. Drawing on a lifetime of research, Hickey tells the story of America's "forgotten conflict." He explains why the fragile young republic chose to challenge Great Britain, then a global power with a formidable navy. He also recounts the early campaigns of the war-William Hull's ignominious surrender at Detroit in 1812; Oliver H. Perry's remarkable victory on Lake Erie; and the demoralizing British raids in the Chesapeake that culminated in the burning of Washington. Tracing Jackson's emergence as a leader in Tennessee and his extraordinary success as a military commander in the field, Hickey finds in Jackson a bundle of contradictions: an enemy of privilege who belonged to Tennessee's ruling elite, a slaveholder who welcomed free blacks into his army, an Indian-hater who adopted a native orphan, and a general who lectured his superiors and sometimes ignored their orders while simultaneously demanding unquestioning obedience from his men. Aimed at students and the general public, Glorious Victory will reward readers with a clear understanding of Andrew Jackson's role in the War of 1812 and his iconic place in the postwar era.

Words Of A Servant

Words Of A Servant

Donald R Small Ph D

Authorhouse

Words of a Servant is produced with the underlying assumption that the coalescence of academic and spiritual learning is a powerful, effective, and necessary weapon against the torrents of evil. Evil thrives upon ignorance, uncertainty, and apathy. Saints of God must empower themselves with knowledge of both the world and the Word of God as to render themselves worthy soldiers of Christ in the perpetual war of good against evil. Saints of God must arm themselves with an arsenal of worldly knowledge in close concert with a thorough understanding of things spiritual that they might foster well-rounded and significantly faithful relationships with Almighty God and their fellowmen. A thorough understanding of God's intent and purpose in our lives depends critically upon the status of our academic and spiritual training and indoctrination. A lack of academic knowledge may render even the most spiritually astute Saint vulnerable to the clever antics of the enemies of Christ. God wants His Saints to be ready at all levels to annihilate evil at its "door step." He wants us to enrich our lives through the advancement of our knowledge and understanding of things of Heaven and of earth. Educating our minds academically prepares us for productive and satisfying careers in the world. Educating our minds spiritually completes the cycle, as we learn how to foster a personal relationship with Almighty God such that He may heap His blessings (worldly and otherwise) upon us as He so desperately desires. God has promised to fight the battles of the faithful in this world-to give us sanctuary from the snares of those who desire to do evil against us. An absolute understanding of this pivotal covenant of God has made with us, His faithful, requires both academic and spiritual intellectual coalescence. AMEN. Donald R. Small, Ph.D.
