Описание: **Named One of the New York Post's Best New Books to Read **FIRE IN THE STRAW is the witty and deeply felt memoir of Nick Lyons, a man with an intrepid desire to reinvent himself--which he does, over and over. Nick Lyons shape shifts from reluctant student and graduate of the Wharton School, to English Professor, to husband of a fiercely committed painter, to ghost writer, to famous fly fisherman and award-winning author, to father and then grandfather, to Executive Editor at a large book publishing company, and finally to founder and publisher of his own successful independent press.. Written with the same warm and earthy voice that has enthralled tens of thousands of fly-fishing readers, Nick weaves the disparate chapters of his life: from the moment his widowed mother drops him off at a grim boarding school at the age of five, where he spends three lonely and confusing years; to his love of basketball and pride playing for Penn; to the tumultuous period, in the army and after, when he found and was transformed by literature; to his marriage to Mari, his great love and anchor of his life. Suddenly, with a PhD in hand and four children, Nick embarks on a complex and thrilling ride, juggling family, fishing, teaching, writing, and publishing, the wolf always at his door. Against all odds, The Lyons Press survives, his children prosper, his wife's art flourishes, and his books and articles make him a household name. Fire in the Straw is a love story, a confessional, and a beautiful big-hearted memoir.
"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights with whom there is no variation." (James 1:17) So writes James in his epistle to a church under attack. Persecution, false teachings, and loveless actions were among the problems troubling God's baptized people. It had gotten to the point that, not only was it hard to recognize the faith of many, the actions of some of these people were harming Christ's church. James writes to produce repentance in the proud and to give comfort to those burdened and suffering.
Things have not changed much for the church in these latter days such that the wisdom of James is needed now as ever. Though Martin Luther, seeking to protect the church from the false teaching of works righteousness, referred to this letter as "an epistle of straw," James gives the good and perfect gift of wisdom to Christ's troubled bride. To be sure, James preaches the law in the harshest of terms to drive the sinful to repentance. But, he also delivers beautiful encouragements to sustain those whose faith is under attack. No mere "epistle of straw" James drives his readers to cling to Christ Jesus.
"Christ in the Straw" is a forty-day devotional aimed at producing repentance and faith through the preaching of Christ found in James. Each day will provide a devotional reading that will guide you into prayer, deliver you the forgiveness of Christ, and challenge you to show your faith in love. These devotions will challenge and encourage you, and most importantly, give you Christ in the straw

Описание: Come quibble over a Galaxy far far away Once, in a theater long ago and far, far away, young audiences thrilled to the nostalgic space epic of yesteryear, known then only as STAR WARS, and were duly enthralled. So much goodwill, so much affection, so much love has rarely been lavished on any franchise. So much money from so many eager fans was never so readily available.And yet, with one potent Deathstar-like blast of mind-breakingly awful film making, the Disney Corporation has managed to alienate that goodwill, spurn that affection, and lose that money. Why? What makes THE LAST JEDI so appallingly bad? What made the film maker think he could win over his audience by insulting his audience?Science Fiction Grandmaster John C Wright laments, analyzes, and autopsies the horrific story-telling of a film that, for so many of us, was the last hope for STAR WARS, the last dime we will ever spend on this once-beloved franchise, and the last straw that broke our patience.
