Описание: "The book is informed by the Vietnamese immigrations of the nineteen-seventies but is filled with social observation of contemporary middle-class culture and indie sensibility . . . Quietly beautiful, Strom's stories are hip without being ironic." --The New Yorker When The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys was first published in 2006, it was groundbreaking in its depiction of contemporary young Vietnamese women living in the United States, centering their ordinary lives as mothers, lovers, friends, and daughters against the backdrop of immigration and assimilation. Available now for the first time in paperback and featuring a new introduction by Dao Strom, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is a beautifully written, psychologically astute foray into the rite of female passage. Mary is a college film student full of yearning who's confounded by the casual give-and-take of the people around her; Darcy, a twenty-something musician, must confront the dark and unknown in the form of a naked stranger who repeatedly breaks into her ramshackle sublet; Leena, aged thirty, is isolated and alone after having been transplanted from Vietnam to Texas through marriage to an American businessman; and finally Sage, a new mother in her early thirties who finds herself, while on a road trip with her four-year-old boy and his father, entertaining thoughts of new romantic possibilities. With both shrewd insight into the moral perils of contemporary life and a deep compassion for the fumbles we make along the way, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is as intimate as it is sweeping--revealing the gritty truths of loving, leaving, and growing up.
Описание: UPDATED 2012 Edition]. Andrew Strom is founder of RevivalSchool.com and the international REVIVAL List. He was involved for 11 years in the same Prophetic movement as Todd Bentley and Rick Joyner - until he quit in anguish over the unbiblical and bizarre things going on in that movement. As an insider, Andrew questions a lot of the 'angels', the gold dust, and "revivals" like the one in Lakeland. Read the FACTS to find out why. What is real Revival? And how do we tell the true from the false? The answers are found in this provocative book. FROM THE REVIEWS: "I have been a pastor for 34 years and have been involved with the charismatic camp for 30 years... This is a book that should be read thoughtfully and prayerfully by all Christians, especially pastors and leaders." - Philip Morrill, pastor (Oregon, USA). "This book is must reading by all Christians BEFORE they get involved in any "revival" movement. It is well-written, well-researched and provides a historical context to better understand the workings of God through "revivals"." - Patricia Van Tine, Amazon Reviews. "This is a must read for Spirit-filled Christians. The passionate loving heart of God bounces off the pages. This is not written from a critical spirit, but a warning right from the heart of God." - Jo-Anne Leroux, Amazon Reviews. "Andrew's is a voice of reason in a storm of controversy." - Donald James Parker, Amazon Reviews.

Описание: This biography of the writer of Amazing Grace takes us on a journey worthy of a Hollywood extravaganza with swashbuckling adventures on the high seas coupled with the horrors of the slave trade. Once Blind retells Newton's conversion during a crushing storm no one expected to survive, moving on to his most unusual career as an evangelical clergyman with the Church of England during which he was known for his ability to bridge gaping theological chasms. In the end, John Newton risked his reputation, his wife's emotional well-being, even his cherished right to preach--all so that he could bear witness to the horrors he had witnessed and had participated in, and to help bring about laws that would stop the slave trade.
