A collection of poetry with powerful messages, such as love and mercy, as expressed in "A Book of Deeds, the theme of cover art: "I held in my hands a book of deeds--And every page was bare; God had blessed me abundantly; Yet, I had none to share...And I cried in shame, "Oh God, Oh God, Am I somehow to blame?And I began to rearrange; And I prayed for God to make the change..."
Precious Veyonne Belief is a deeply personal account of love, heartache, pain and so much more of what we have all experienced in life. Cole Wynter's debut collection of poetry is comprised of fifty individual poems and three original works of art by the author. While each poem possesses it's own unique blend of metaphor and verisimilitude, one constant voice resonates throughout the volume linking such distinct experiences as sensuality and desolation. Wynter recounts the kisses from a girl he "used to know" in the longer piece Smooches with the same fluidity and style as he describes seemingly unrequited love in the much shorter piece, Pain thereby introducing an intriguing, yet mysterious, figurative female apparition who appears to be at the heart and subject for much of this volume. This deliberate work holds the fullness of life's yearnings and disappointments that exist within us all.
In her first book title Hidden Thorns, Marie-Rose Fox related her heart-wrenching story of losing her only daughter to domestic violence and her journey from bitterness and anger to God's sweet peace, emotional healing, and forgiveness for her daughter's killer. But her journey didn't stop there. In Precious Whispers, Marie-Rose picks up her story, sharing the ongoing valuable heart lessons she continues to learn in the aftermath of loss and grief through listening to God's still, small voice. By God's grace, stumbling blocks along the path of cancer, additional loss of loved ones, financial setbacks, and more have become instead steppingstones to stronger faith, dependence on God, deepened prayer, and joyous contentment. She shares God's precious whispers in her own life with the hope and prayer that her personal journey of faith, healing, forgiveness, and God's love will help readers also find emotional and spiritual healing and a greater understanding of just how greatly they are loved by their heavenly Father.

“Precious volumes,” or pao-chüan, were produced by popular sects in the Ming and early Qing dynasties. These scriptures were believed to have been divinely revealed to sect leaders and contain teachings and ritual instructions that provide valuable information about a lively and widespread religious tradition outside mainstream Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. Largely neglected until now, they testify to the imagination and devotion of popular religious leaders.This book, the most detailed and comprehensive study of pao-chüan in any language, studies 34 early examples of this literature in order to understand the origins and development of this textual tradition. Although the work focuses on content and structure, it also treats the social context of these works as well as their transmission and ritual use.

And she can disguise herself to look like anything. So when the Boo Hag comes calling, will Precious be clever enough to outwit even the trickiest trickster? Here's an oh-so-funny -- and not-too-scary -- story from Newbery Honor-winning author Patricia C. McKissack and Onawumi Jean Moss that's paired with spirited, folksy illustrations by Kyrsten Brooker.

It may cause you to remember all the horrible details and make you cringe away in shame, but in the end you will rise stronger within to embrace even more pain, even more beauty in the future. Pain is a gift, a beauty being the root of growth.

It's 1961 and deep in the Australian outback, the country town of Albury is about to go to war with itself. Putting fluoride in the water supply isn't exactly a straightforward proposition - in fact, it's a secret ploy by the communists to poison the townsfolk's precious bodily fluids. Or is it? Seen through the eyes of mischievous 11-year-old schoolboy Charles, PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS is a hysterically funny childhood memoir that vividly evokes a certain time, place and way of life that is now lost forever ...
Ole Bruun focuses on a community of nomadic livestock herders in present-day Mongolia. He depicts their transition from a contained, Soviet-era collective to modern times and addresses the most essential conditions for their continued survival and prosperity in the age of the market: the adaptability of their own culture and working strategies, government policy, and international attention. By studying the nomadic practice of animal husbandry in the context of family farms, Bruun points out the similarity to the peasant economy defined by the Russian agricultural economist Alexander Chayanov nearly a century ago. In both economies, the labor-consumer balance and life-cycle variations commonly set the term for economic strategies, yet the pastoral economy involves a highly specialized form of agriculture in which the scale of exchange determines wealth and lifestyle. In a vast territory such as Mongolia, infrastructure, social benefits, and other means of state support are crucial to prevent herders from sliding into a subsistence orientation, eventually leading to poverty.
