Stories
Stories are perceived as central to modern life. Not only in narrative entertainment media, such as television, cinema, theater, but also in social media. Telling/having "a story" is widely deemed essential, in business as well as in social life. Does this mark an intensification of what has always been part of human cultures; or has the realm of "story" expanded to dominate twenty-first century discourse? Addressing stories is an obvious priority for the Key Debates series, and Volume 7, edited by Ian Christie and Annie van den Oever, identifies new phenomena in this field -- complex narration, puzzle films, transmedia storytelling -- as well as new approaches to understanding these, within narratology and bio-cultural studies. Chapters on such extended television series as Twin Peaks, Game of Thrones and Dickensian explore distinctively new forms of screen storytelling in the digital age.With contributions by Vincent Amiel, Jan Baetens, Dominique Chateau, Ian Christie, John Ellis, Miklós Kiss, Eric de Kuyper, Sandra Laugier, Luke McKernan, José Moure, Roger Odin, Annie van den Oever, Melanie Schiller, Steven Willemsen, Robert Ziegler.
This Is My Story
This Is My Story By: Glen O. Suiter A man’s journey in life may take many twists and turns, but, ultimately, he will be judged by where he ends up and the impact he has on those around him. Glen O. Suiter is no stranger to the seeming randomness of daily life; but through all the difficulties he faced, he always found his way thanks to a faith in God, that while it too went through many changes over the years, only became stronger with time. This Is My Story is the tale of a life well-lived. It contains the lessons learned by a true Christian who was everything from an inactive and unheard member of a congregation to a leader, preacher, and church founder. Glen’s story isn’t idyllic, but life never is. Learning to deal with that fact is perhaps the greatest challenge of all.
The Greatest Dream Ever Told
The book, The Greatest Dream Ever Told, is a fictional adventure of a grandpa and his beagle dog, as they travel back into the Bible to visit some of Gods greatest people in the midst of their trials, tribulations, temptations, and of course victories. It contains adventures that will ignite the interest of Gods Word and cause a hunger for a personal adventure and relationship with Jesus Christ. As your children take this adventure into Jim and Annies dream through the Bible, they will laugh and stand amazed as they see the Bible come alive to them. As they read the book, they will also be encouraged to read the corresponding passages in the Bible. There will also be discussion questions that will help their parents or Sunday School teachers dig deeper into the spiritual truths God has in store for them. As with one of the main characters in the book, they will have a chance to ask Jesus to come into their heart to be their Lord and Savior. It is Jim and Annies prayer that God will use this simple book to do a great work in the heart of all that may read it, or have it read to them. In Christ Rev. Jim Poole Annie the Beagle
"Circumstances are Destiny"
Celestia Rice Colby, born in Ohio in 1827, had lifestyle options that were relatively straightforward for the typical white female child born in the first half of the nineteenth century: she married in 1848, had five children, spent much of her life working as a dairy farmer and housewife, and died in 1900. Her rich legacy, however, extended beyond her children and grandchildren and survived in the form of detailed and reflective diaries and writings. Her private and published writings show that despite the appearances of the quintessential normal life, Colby struggled to reconcile her personal hopes and ambitions with the expectations and obligations placed on her by society. Author Tina Stewart Brakebill has woven original research with secondary material to form the fabric of Colby's life - from her days as the daughter of an Ohio dairy farmer to her relationship with her daughter, a pioneering university professor.
