Описание: From the founders of the international health-care behemoth Johnson & Johnson in the late 1800s to the contemporary Johnsons of today, such as billionaire New York Jets owner Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson IV, all is revealed in this scrupulously researched, unauthorized biography by New York Times bestselling author Jerry Oppenheimer. Often compared to the Kennedy clan because of the tragedies and scandals that had befallen both wealthy and powerful families, Crazy Rich, based on scores of exclusive, candid, on-the-record interviews, reveals how the dynasty's vast fortune was both intoxicating and toxic through the generations of a family that gave the world Band-Aids and Baby Oil. At the same time, they've been termed perhaps the most dysfunctional family in the fortune 500. Oppenheimer is the author of biographies of the Kennedys, the Clintons, the Hiltons and Martha Stewart, among other American icons.

Описание:
People all around us are dying every day. People who have no hope, no understanding, and no assurance of what will happen to them when they take their final breath in this world. Countless people live in the paralyzing fear of death, fear of their unknown eternal destiny. It is an unfortunate fact that in this very unpredictable world we live in, none of us are guaranteed to still be alive tomorrow You are going to die I am going to die And it could even be today That fabled grim reaper is going to come knocking at your door You may be asking yourself, "If this were to actually happen, what would really happen to me? Would I go to heaven? Would I go to hell? Would I just float off into the cosmos? Would I be reincarnated and get a do over? Or do I just go into blackness and cease to exist?" You may ask all these questions, but in reality, you just don't know for sure We are all like flowers that bloom for a little while and then are gone. This life is very short, but our eternity is forever. So let me ask you the most important question anyone could ever ask. If you're honest, this is a question you and virtually every person who has ever lived has asked at some point in their lives. If you were to die today, do you know for certain what will happen to you? Do you know for certain where you will spend your eternity? Will you go to a fiery hell and be tortured for all eternity? Or will you spend it in the joy, the peace and the beauty of heaven? What if I were to tell you, you can know for certain? You can know what will happen to you when you do actually die What if I were to tell you, you do not have to fear death? You don't have to live in that crippling fear another day What if I were to tell you, you actual have the choice where you will spend eternity? Wouldn't that be an awesome thing to know? Not to have to live in the fear of death anymore You Are Already Dead was written to give you hope and a purpose for your life and your eternity To give you the information and the understanding you need that can take all that fear away today How much peace would that kind of knowledge and understanding give to those multitudes of people who live in that paralyzing fear? How much peace would that knowledge give to you?

- Engages the church with the teaching and pastoral plea from the House of Bishops on creation care - Unique focus on sacramental, prayer, and liturgical life alongside practical responses
As science and politics engage in a never-ending battle over the environment, A Life of Grace for the Whole World re-claims the theology of salvation and redemption for all creation. Using the House of Bishop's Pastoral Teaching on the Environment -- the first statement on the environment from The Episcopal Church leadership -- as a guide, A Life of Grace engages participants in understanding how the call to care for Creation informs and deepens appreciation and love for God and God's work in Creation, and how that finds expression in the faith life of individuals and churches.
The adult sessions use Bible study, discussion questions, reflections on sections of the Book of Common Prayer, and other activities to encourage active learning. Each week participants are asked to reflect, in different ways, on their faith communities and their own spiritual journey and how they can find a more meaningful connection with God's active work among all creation.
The youth section, which parallels the adult sessions, encourages active engagement through viewing of videos, use of technology, and a range of activities. Exploratory questions for the facilitator allow for open-ended conversation and discussion of current events around environment and faith. Connecting the five-week session is the creation of a Tree of Life, which is added to during every session.
Both an Adult Booklet and a Youth Booklet enhance the experience of A Life of Grace, both within and outside of the sessions, with additional content, activities, and journaling space.
Audience: Church leadership, church members, youth leaders, adult and youth faith-formation, Christian educators, small groups, Christian day schools (teens).
Описание: The name HMS Dreadnought is closely associated with the age of empire, the Anglo-German antagonism and the pre-First World War naval arms race. Yet it was also bound up with a range of political and cultural, national and international contexts, central to the Edwardian period. This volume investigates these contexts and their intersection in this symbolically charged icon of the Edwardian age.
