Scripture: A Guide for the Perplexed

Scripture: A Guide for the Perplexed

Given the extraordinary richness and range of contemporary theology, questions about the authority and inspiration of the Bible tend to garner ever increasing variety, complexity and controversy. Among those challenges include the questions posed by biblical criticism to the enterprise of Christian theology, and the place of scripture in the life of the contemporary church. Employing a range of conversation partners, this book will provide an up-to-date survey of the diverse ways in which contemporary theologians use the Bible 'to think with'. The volume enables students to compare different approaches to the reading of scripture. It also explores the ways in which the theological interpretation of scripture can be both a critical and a spiritual exercise.

Time in Year of the Bluebird is thoroughly engaging look at the circumstances that lead a man to walk the Pacific Crest Trail in honor of his ailing mother. As much an homage, a travelogue, and a treatise on the natural world, it lures the reader over the switchbacks at a blazing clip alongside the realities and mysteries of a thru-hike; packed with all the logistics, challenges, trail magic, aftermath, and for any seeker, an honest level of commentary about the paths we forge, forget, and often rediscover deep in the woods.
The Greatest Adventure of All: a personal recollection of Romania
A recollection of our greatest adventure of all begins with the post-Communist Era in Romania and continues through a time of great change in that region. This book chronicles the process that began with driving trucks, filled with emergency aid from England, to orphanages in the northeast section of Romania, called Moldavia. Our adventure developed into team trips by van, coach and truck from our church outside London, England, that made enduring relationships and memories. My wife, Judy, and I subsequently moved to that section of Romania and led a youth group of orphan teenagers, provided micro-enterprise assistance to entrepreneurs, and eventually assisted with four new church plants. Our hearts are still tied to the wonderful people of this region, and we will be eternally grateful for the opportunity to serve God through them. It was certainly our greatest adventure ... at least to date. The key question is: Have you found your greatest adventure yet? I believe that God has one for each of His children. It may start with a nudge, but it leads to maturity, greater faith, and revelation. Pray for a nudge from God, and go for it
Advances in Facial Cosmetic Surgery

Advances in Facial Cosmetic Surgery

This book provides an overview of facial cosmetic surgical procedures. Our society has become more fitness oriented, and many women and men continue a very active lifestyle longer than they may have in the past. They want to look as good as they feel. Executives, salespeople, and business owners want to maintain a competitive edge and look their best when meeting clients, in front of a camera, or on stage. Facial cosmetic surgery is a solution for many people who desire to regain a youthful appearance. As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and the effects of aging become apparent around the eyes and on the face and neck. Brows become set lower and the eyes don't appear to fully open. Deep furrows may develop between the brows, giving a facial expression of concern or anger. Dark, puffy areas appear below the eyes, giving the look of being tired. Sagging or droopy skin appears on the face and neck, along with an increase of wrinkles and less definition of the contour of the neck and chin. Procedures explained in this book, including the endoscopic brow lift, eyelid surgery, and facelift can help restore the appearance of youth. Everyone is unique and a specific procedure, or a combination of procedures, may be recommended for the best results. Dr. Burden provides some background on his research starting back in the 1990s on newer approaches to plastic surgery using fiber optics that allowed smaller incisions and less invasive procedures. He describes advances that have been made in facial cosmetic surgery in an easy to read Question and Answer format. The advanced techniques described in the book help regain a youthful appearance and provide the highest rate of patient satisfaction when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. Dr. William R. Burden, MD, FACS, is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. He is the founder and CEO of Destin Plastic Surgery in Destin, Florida and is also the founder of the Destin Surgery Center, housed in the same building. During his fellowship in Plastic Surgery at the University of Florida, Dr. Burden worked with his professors to introduce endoscopic and specialized microvascular techniques in breast and facial cosmetic surgery. He was one of the pioneers in researching the use of endoscopic or fiber optic technology for plastic surgery.

This operations is based upon author's knowledge of how a Bio-Terrorist operation, with direct leads to the Al Queda Terrorist organization, could have happened. Indeed, there are certain truths mixed in with this story, but it would have been considered classified by both the government of the United States and the Secretary General of the United Nations. 11 September 2001 de-classified this story which began in Nazi Germany and continued into a small remote village in the Congo. There are strong ties into the Vatican, the World Health Organization, and a highly placed terrorist mastermind. The ultimate plot is to spread a deadly disease around the world with almost instant death to the people infected. This trail of terror and the pursuit of those involved will lead from New York City to Africa, Geneva, and culminate in the Caribbean Island of Curacao.
