You need to know that there is a devil, who doesn't want you reading this book. He's that little voice in your head, telling you to put this book down. He's in your mind, telling you that I'm out of mine. (Being that I was born in a mental institution, I very well may be out of my mind.) But, I'm bright enough to ask why he would want to keep you from reading this book? I'm also wise enough to know that it's because he understands the content of this book can be used to change the destiny of your soul forever. What will you do? --Discard this book, and face the fall-out that comes from listening to satan; or read it, and experience the most astounding transformation you have ever imagined? -- from back cover.
Ours is a generation of brokenness. Personal and global strife has led many to question the existence of a loving God--or of a God at all. Drawing from his own story of brokenness and redemption, evangelist Tony Nolan wants to change all that. In this stirring call to walk the talk, Nolan calls on Christians to be modern-day Good Samaritans, not so they can pat themselves on the back, but so that they can model the love of Christ in a hurting world. From the foreword by Johnny Hunt: "If there was ever a generation or a time in history when people were in need of hope, it is now. This book has the potential to touch a generation not only in America but literally all over the world as we consider that the deepest need, the deepest hurt, and the deepest wounds can only be healed in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ."
Tony Wilson was the co-founder of Factory Records and The Hacienda, he kick-started the careers of Joy Division, Happy Mondays, and New Order, he put the Sex Pistols on television for the first time and was the inspiration behind the film 24 Hour Party People. From his unique childhood growing up with a gay father and a domineering mother to his tragically early death in 2007 after battling the NHS for a drug that could prolong his life, David Nolan investigates the lives and times of the man they called "Mr. Manchester." Drawing on nearly 50 interviews with musicians, DJs, writers, actors, family, and friends--including Wilson's partner of 17 years Yvette Livesey, You're Entitled To An Opinion . . . paints a picture of a unique, driven, and chaotic man whose inspiration and influence is still being felt today across the worlds of music and television.

I was only six when I suspected my skin might be the wrong colour... Born female on the wrong side of the tracks, Eve Mills Nash, with the help of co-author Kenneth J. Harvey, tells a hard-hitting tale of a lifelong fascination with men of a darker hue. From early childhood, Nash knew it was "something to do with what was inside the bottles" that encouraged the groping male fingers that casually abused her during her parents' drunken parties. She soon discovered that the wine remnants in the revellers' discarded cups would numb her pain. Nash's fortuneteller grandmother predicted a future of violence for her, starting as a teenager with her marriage to first husband Stan, an Ontario Mohawk. What Nash's grandmother didn't prophesize was the drunken binges and revolving door of unstable partners that traumatized her children, left her suicidal, and convinced her she was a failure as a mother after her eldest daughter became a cocaine addict. Harrowing yet life-affirming, this blistering account of life on the cusp of New Brunswick's Native community sees the Little White Squaw and her children balance precariously between two seemingly irreconcilable cultures and colours.
The book demonstrates how teachers can transform how they connect with their students, whilst also creating meaningful and potent learning experiences for themselves. White and Gardner show that by following simple methods borrowed from psychology and cognitive science teachers can develop their own ‘X-Factor’ and in so doing increase their enjoyment and efficacy as professionals.

The War on Terror goes nuclear leading to a devastating war that almost wipes mankind from the face of the earth. Out of the rubble rises a new civilization. A one world government that ushers in an era of peace and prosperity. However, not everything is as it appears. Special Agent Paul Lott must find not only the way to stop a new and potentially devastating threat, but he must also find the answers that haunt his soul.

Surrounded by enemies, from both the outside world and from within his own government, Lott must rush to find the truth before it is too late. And, in the process, he may just find the one thing he has never had, something to believe in. A six part Bible Study is included.
