Jehovah has always found ways to share His message. Gamaliel heard it first while sitting on his Grandfather's knee. He heard of the birth of the Anointed One, of the young man who tossed the money changers from the temple. And by the time he himself was a seasoned scholar, Gamaliel was just miles from the place where John the Baptizer first waded into the Jordan.And Gamaliel was among the first to hear of it when the curtain in the temple was torn.You'll feel the dust between your toes as you walk with Gamaliel through the pages of this book. As he studies and debates with the Pharisees in the Grand Sanhedrin and himself becomes a revered member of that distinguished body. As he carries his beliefs beyond that torn veil.In GAMALIEL: BEYOND THE VEIL, Charles G. Dorsey reconstructs daily life and conversations as they have been prompted through his research. It is his desire that the reader will get a glimpse into the lives of the people who lived through a most cruel and tumultuous time as they found, lost, and found again their Anointed One.

Refreshing. Loved this story. Eli put it down, and Lauren singing a different tune. It was great reading a story about a different couple where the man was not a billionaire with the woman appearing to be helpless and needy. I recommend buying the book, you will not be disappointed. Bookworm******************Lauren Shaw needed to find a date that could stand in as her "plus one boyfriend" for her ex's wedding. Only she hadn't dated anyone since her old boyfriend being the cheater that he was had done as his title implied - and that had been a year ago. Damn Marcus for roping her into having to save face to go in front of his fiancée.But as a 29 year old accountant she neither had the time, nor the "sociable personality" as Marcus would say, in order to make anything real work with anyone. However, that quickly began to change when her assistant Eli Sorensen - a 22 year old ex model with a face like Michelangelo's David and the body to match - walked into her office asking to borrow $400, so that he wouldn't be homeless when he couldn't pay his rent, due to maxing out his wallet on emergency car repairs. And as reluctant as Lauren was to loan him the money, Eli's problem quickly became the solution to her own.Hire him for the wedding.

Lily Lawson's poems work on a deep level in my heart. She weaves a tiny story out of exact chosen words that strike at my core.Get a cup of tea or coffee, sit back, and savor her poems. Your day will be better for it. Orange means passion, and for Lily Lawson, that's writing. In this second relatable, contemporary collection of the Rainbow series, the 'non poetry-lovers poet' shares that passion in the way only she can. '... to the artist, the poet, the dreamer, the weaver of words, >'However the reader interprets the intent in these poems, they are all written with Lily's usual word craft, and emotion without sentiment.' '... full of poems that are simple and sincere, heartfelt but without the veil of unnecessary complexity that often obfuscates rather than illuminates, and that puts many readers off.' ' ... this slenderest of volumes will appeal to the writer in all of us.

My book is about five years of my life, serving in the Royal Navy between 1965 and 1970 and travelling the world. It is full of travel experiences, often outlandish and funny stories, humour and wry observations of life in the Navy and in general.It is designed for a universal rather than a military audience and is intended to entertain. It describes my experiences during tough training, serving on an aircraft carrier and, finally, small coastal minesweepers, which still managed to traverse the oceans. It tells of using charts originally created by Captain Cook and updated by a reverend and a 13-year-old Midshipman in 1856, visiting "former" headhunters in Borneo and sweeping live mines the Strait of Malacca 20 years after the Second World War. The ship was also blessed with the birth of a baby boy, born at sea 200 miles from Fiji and named after our youngest 17-year-old crew member.I enjoyed travelling to some really remote areas that are still off the tourist track, even today. It was a unique and humbling experience I will never forget.I do hope you enjoy reading my book as much as I have enjoyed writing it.I do hope you enjoy reading my book as much as I have enjoyed writing it.

Baker Jax Martinez works odd hours making cupcakes and cookies in his New York apartment. It's a skill he learned from his grandparents, who raised him in a bakery of their own, and he's never wanted to do anything else. His strange schedule makes it hard to have friends and a social life, but he's an introvert so the occasional Sunday dinner with his best friend January is enough for him. Sawyer McMahon joined the army to leave behind everyone and everything he knew after losing the cowboy he loved in a horrific rodeo accident. After nearly losing his own life as a soldier overseas, he's not sure what's next for him. His old rodeo buddy Hawk Destry, who has had to deal with a disability of his own, offers Saw a place to stay for a while in New York and he takes it, hoping Hawk can help him get his recovery on track. It's an instant friendship when Jax finds an excuse to rescue Saw from an overwhelming moment, and they discover quickly that they want to be more. Their issues and quirks seem to fit together in a strange and complicated way, but neither of them has thought much beyond the present moment. Could they actually have a future together? Or are they destined to be just friends?

In 1911, an innocent kiss at a corn shucking reignites a bitter political feud that culminates in a massacre inside of the county courthouse. Betrayal and vengeance lurk in every narrow valley and dark hollow as Sidna Allen and his nephew, Wesley Edwards, are pursued by the ruthless Baldwin-Felts Detective Agency.What folks are saying..."A Bad and Dangerous Man is a taut, gripping novel about a simpler time that isn't simple at all in the hardscrabble landscape of the Virginia mountains. This debut is packed with all the elements of a great, Southern burner: greed, murder, and an unforgettable cast of moonshiners and outlaws."-Scott Blackburn, author of It Dies With You"In Brett Lovell's A Bad and Dangerous Man, family ties become snares that pull an entire community apart. A simple flirtation lights a fuse that culminates in the historic shootout at the Carroll County Courthouse. As Payne, a detective fresh out of union-busting for the mining companies, pursues Sidra Allen and his nephew, he realizes what the reader gets from the start. There are no 'good guys, ' but neither are the bad ones so very 'bad and dangerous.' Even knowing some of the major historical moments, I couldn't turn away from the cat-and-mouse pursuit. In some ways the inevitably of the shootout made it an even more compelling read. Lovell delves deep into the inner world of the Allen family-men and women, their community allies, and their political rivals, bringing the blood-soaked past to life in rich and compelling detail."-Sarah Warburton, author of You Can Never Tell and Once Two Sisters"In A Bad and Dangerous Man, Lovell weaves an intricate history of outlaws, betrayals, and vengeance, of blood spilled and binding, with the precision of an architect and the grace of a poet."-Meagan Lucas, author of Songbirds and Stray Dogs"Brett Lovell skillfully navigates the ruthless real-world events of the 1912 Hillsville, Virginia Massacre to create a compelling novel filled with revenge, violence, and - ultimately - redemption. A Bad and Dangerous Man marks the debut of a powerful new voice in Appalachian fiction."-Bobby Mathews, author of Living the Gimmick"Brett Lovell's debut historical fiction novel is well-paced, beautifully written, and chock-full of intriguing mountain lore. A Bad and Dangerous Man will quickly suck you in and ferry you into the twisting mines and hollers of Appalachia-straight through to its heartbreaking conclusion. You will remember Wesley, Sidna, Floyd, and Claude long after the final scene. If you're a fan of Appalachian fiction, you need this book on your bookshelf!"-C.W. Blackwell, author of Hard Mountain Clay

It might have actually been possible, too, if not for the aggressive wave of attacks on her boss's infrastructure.Forced together by fate and the power-hungry elite, these two unlikely allies must learn to trust each other, or they'll have to watch the city they love burn to the ground.Fans of Matthew A.

Have you ever taken sufficient interest in the great subject of your destiny to ask yourself questions like these: "What is the real meaning and purpose of my life? What am I really living for? What is my destiny after death? What will become of me when I die?" No doubt questions of this nature have often come into your mind and troubled you, sometimes at the most unexpected moments. Even against your will they came and clamored for a hearing and an answer. But you were not in a mood to occupy yourself with them. They were unwelcome intruders in your life of business, or money-making, or study, or the eager pursuit of pleasure and amusement. And so you disregarded them and managed to dismiss them from your mind. Good common sense, however, demanded that you should have taken time to study into them and find the correct answer. The neglect to do so is a sin against right reason. It is the common source of the loss of heaven. This book is your guide to exploring and discovering the answers to these vital questions and finding peace and purpose in your life.
