Описание: College is a place that can either make your faith or break your faith. It is a crucible where the fires of the world prove the authenticity of faith-making it wither like dross or making it glimmer like gold. Many Christians go to college and immediately find themselves face-to-face with a host of worldviews, values, and lifestyles they have never before encountered. Then they start asking the hard questions: What do I believe? How do I respond? Who am I? What should I do with my life? This book stands at the intersection of the Christian faith and the college life. 10 Things Every Christian Should Know For College is a replete guide for not merely surviving in college, but more importantly, thriving in college. Within its pages, you will find the most relevant and significant issues every Christian college student will face, such as how to handle doubt, how to form community, and how to establish identity.
Описание: In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries revolutionary dissent, political upheaval and social protest spread throughout Europe - and Wales was no exception. In this unique examination of British social history, J.E. Thomas focuses upon the power of the local gentry in Wales, and their relationship with the poor and potentially revolutionary population. Early explosions of protest were seen all over Wales, coinciding with the aftermath of the American Revolution, and the equally seismic events of the French Revolution, while later revolts went on to provide serious challenges to the British state. 'Social Disorder in Britain' is an important contribution to the study of the history of religion, social protest and the rise of revolutionary movements, and will be essential reading for students and researchers of British history as well as those interested in revolution more generally.
Описание: What were the principal factors that influenced and shaped the behaviour of the gentry during the Wars of the Roses, from 1455 at the first battle of St Albans to the final encounter at Stoke in 1487? This title offers research and new interpretations of the gentry`s role in the political and military conflicts of late fifteenth-century England.

Описание: At the age of five, Poet realised that eating healthy was a choice and decided to exercise that choice whenever possible. At first, I was a bit concerned and even shared my concerns with his kindergarten teacher. Poet had gone six months without eating a single cupcake or piece of cake at a birthday party. Our teacher told us not to worry - that it was completely normal for kids of his age to test their boundaries, in Poets case his boundaries of self-control. Poet declared that he would avoid refined sugars and limit his intake of processed foods. So out went our occasional family trip to McDonalds for that delicious hot fudge sundae, our visits to Sees candies for those sweet surprise tasters, and any sort of treat that had food colouring or processed sugars. When I realised that this was not a passing phase, we started reading all sorts of books about nutrition and the benefits of certain foods. Poet and I also started watching YouTube videos of easy, healthy recipes to jump start our new passion for using more wholesome ingredients. Poet began experimenting with avocado, cocoa powder and less processed sweeteners like honey, agave, maple syrup and dates. He also decided to choose bananas and berries over sugary sweets for dessert and snack time. Ultimately, what started off as a protest against cakes and baked goods turned into a lifestyle choice. As his passion for cooking blossomed, we decided to write a book to share how it can be hip to be healthy and dispel the assumption that all healthy food is tasteless or yucky. Poet still wont touch certain things like salad dressing, tomatoes or mushrooms, but for the most part he is a conscientious eater who chooses to try healthy options like veggie burgers, spinach and Brussels sprouts. We are proud of our healthy eater and want to share his love of the outdoors, fishing, gardening, cooking and wholesome eating with our family and friends. What we have learned through this process is that leading by example is very powerful and you never know who you might inspire. Although it is hard to be the kid who says "no, thank you" to the spam musubi, Gatorade, candy lei and boba drinks, it is also fun to create new recipes and share what we make with friends and family. Writing this book reminds me that, no matter how young or old, novice or expert, we can all learn from one another.

Описание: Continuing the argument developed in the author`s previous book, this exhaustively researched study describes the humiliation of the Chinese gentry at the hands of the statist Oboi regents in the 1660s and the Kangxi emperor`s self-declared Confucian sagehood in the 1670s, which effectively trumped the gentry`s claim to sovereignty.
