Rethinking Rest: Why Our Approach to Sabbath Isn't Working

Rethinking Rest: Why Our Approach to Sabbath Isn't Working

Gregory D. Hall

Deep River Books LLC
2023
nidottu
Today's concept of biblical rest... isn't working. Our numerous discussions about "which day" and "how" the seventh-day sabbath should be observed have distracted, confused, and caused apathy within an entire generation of believers. But biblical rest is dramatically different than most suppose. Dr. Gregory D. Hall explains how we went off course and offers fresh insight into the original intent of sabbath rest. Have you abandoned the sabbath? Do you feel disenfranchised with the practices of the modern Church? Are you willing to rethink what you thought you already knew? This book will challenge you to expand your scope and reengage the topic in new ways. Its simple practicality is a breath of fresh air for what has become a stagnant discussion along party lines.

John F. Kennedy's 1957 Algeria Speech

John F. Kennedy's 1957 Algeria Speech

Gregory D. Cleva

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
John F. Kennedy remains a compelling figure almost sixty years after his tragic assassination. Kennedy’s voice—with all of its characteristic eloquence—as well as the engaging complexity of the man himself, are brought to life in John F. Kennedy’s 1957 Algeria Speech. This book deals with one of Kennedy’s most important as a U.S. Senator—but least recognized—foreign policy speeches calling for Algerian independence after more than a century of French colonial rule. The reader will experience the debate surrounding Kennedy’s speech of July 2, 1957, particularly the resistance it encountered from the Eisenhower administration, French officials, and French citizens, senior members of America’s foreign policy community such as Dean Acheson and Adlai Stevenson, and editorial criticism in some of the most distinguished journals in the United States and France. The author offers new insights into Kennedy’s reasons for giving this speech, as well as his extensive preparation spanning fifteen months. Cleva uses in depth scholarship to analyze several years of classified U.S. Government documents dealing with the Algerian crisis in order to provide this comprehensive study of Kennedy’s Senate speech, how it shaped Kennedy’s own administration, as well its significance to American foreign policy.

Mississippian Beginnings

Mississippian Beginnings

Gregory D. Wilson

University Press of Florida
2017
sidottu
Using fresh evidence and nontraditional ideas, the contributing authors of Mississippian Beginnings reconsider the origins of the Mississippian culture of the North American Midwest and Southeast (A.D. 1000-1600). Challenging the decades-old opinion that this culture evolved similarly across isolated Woodland populations, they discuss signs of migrations, pilgrimages, violent conflicts, and other far-flung entanglements that now appear to have shaped the early Mississippian past.Presenting recent fieldwork, archival studies, and new investigations of legacy collections, the essays in this volume interpret results through contemporary perspectives that emphasize agency and historical contingency. They track the various ways disparate cultures across a sizeable swath of the continent came to share similar architecture, pottery, subsistence strategies, sociopolitical organization, iconography, and religion. Together, they provide the most comprehensive examination of early Mississippian culture in nearly thirty years.

The Last Refuge

The Last Refuge

Gregory D. Johnsen

Oneworld Publications
2013
nidottu
‘Exhausted and on the run, it looked like the end for the small band of men. Looking at the few who had followed him into the desert, Muhammad said, “When disaster threatens, seek refuge in Yemen”… Yemen was the last refuge.’ Far from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, in an unforgiving corner of Arabia, the US and al-Qaeda are fighting a clandestine war of drones and suicide bombers. The battles began in 2006, when twenty-three men tunnelled out of a maximum-security prison in Yemen’s capital to their freedom. Later they were joined by a dozen men released from Guantánamo Bay. Together, they formed the core of al-Qaeda on the Arabian Peninsula – and now they and their recruits stand ready to hijack the Arab Spring, from the streets of Syria to hotspots much closer to home. In The Last Refuge, al-Qaeda scholar Gregory D. Johnsen charts the rise, the fall, and the ultimate resurrection of al-Qaeda in Yemen – given new life through a combustion of civil wars, Afghan refugees, and Muhammad’s prophetic teachings. Johnsen brings us inside al-Qaeda’s training camps and safe houses as the terrorists plot poison attacks and debate how to bring down a plane on Christmas Day. Based on years of on-the-ground interviews and never-before-translated al-Qaeda battle notes, he delivers a riveting and incisive investigation of the state of the Middle East.

This is the story of David. No, not that David, the David of the Bible. This is the story of Decatur, Illinois native and musician David Causey, my Uncle. However, like the David of the Bible, who played the lyre and sang songs, David Causey played the guitar and sang songs. In fact, as of the writing of this book in 2021, he still does play guitar and sing for himself and friends. David, or Dave to his friends, had a long musical history in Decatur, fronting Decatur's first rock and roll band, The Headhunters in the 50s, to the Trambones who played dates with the Elvis Presley band, and to being the rhythm guitarist and vocalist for the popular dance band, The Blue Notes, into the 70s. His musical sojourn also took him to South Bend, Indiana and he spent a year playing bass guitar in a Surf band in southern California at the beginning of the surf movement in the early 60s. From fronting Decatur's first Rock band to playing in a Surf band in southern California, David really was at the forefront of many musical first waves. This book is my own attempt to honor my Uncle's musical career, and that of the musicians, many from Decatur, he played with. The book contains over sixty black and white, and color photos from 1954 through 2007, including the 1959 Elvis Presley band with Scotty Moore, Reggie Young, Bill Black, DJ Fontana and Joe Lee. There are many photos of vintage Gibson, Gretsch, Martin, National and Fender guitars, as well as Fender and Gibson amps, all being played by the musicians. David Causey: A Life in Music is a is a hardback book with 60 black and white and full color glossy pages.

Which is more deadly: the secrets we keep from each other, or the ones we keep from ourselves? Stefani Palmieri is a woman on a mission. A long-hidden technology, the Bridge, consumes her every waking moment, a compulsion that seems to come from outside her. All she knows is she has to get it working as fast as possible, while ignoring the sense that she is not herself. Struggling to adjust to a life of school, a home, and a family, Marri Palmieri misses her time as a homeless orphan. At least then she didn't feel the inexplicable urge to kill her adoptive mother Stefani, nor did she have visions of a strange man following her, a man no one else can see. Karl Yonnel has lost the two things that mattered most: his life in the Lancer Corps and his relationship with Stefani. Dishonorably discharged for doing his duty, he ekes out a living ratting out criminals for money to police who'd just as soon see him dead as a traitor. But when Stefani approaches him with a new job, he'll be forced to infiltrate those same police to uncover a growing conspiracy that threatens the entire city. As Coldgarden's long-buried secrets come to light and the city begins eating itself from the inside out, Stefani, Marri, and Karl will have to contend with threats both human and alien in their desperate efforts to save their dying world.
