Luray, Virginia, is a beautiful town situated in Page Valley of the Shenandoah. It’s home to Daniel and Annabelle Greenwood. For income, the couple own and manage a bed-and-breakfast business, handed down from Annabelle’s father before the bed-and-breakfast industry was a thing. Daniel and Annabelle have four children. Three boys: Absalom, Noah, and Tommy. A little girl named Layla Belle who was in their lives for only a moment in time but made a huge impact for the Kingdom of God. Daniel also serves as minister to a small Presbyterian congregation that has roots in the basement of his home. One morning on Christmas day, the congregation experience a miraculous healing from the Holy Spirit, which catapults growth and positive directions in serving the community of Luray, for years to come. Absalom Greenwood catches a vision for serving the Lord early on in his life following the patterns of his mom and dad! Serving in a ministry that’s very entertaining, to say the least. At the age of eighteen, walking away from his faith, Absalom becomes a statistic, joining the 85 percent of his companions raised in Christian homes who never give the Bible or God a second thought. They work hard pursuing the American Dream and worshipping everything but the Lord. Many years later, when Annabelle is seventy-seven years of age, she rises to her finest hour, calling out to her son, pleading for him to return to his faith. Will Absalom hear the call and make the decision to turn his life toward God? The story spans from the early 1960s all the way to 2009, with many interesting people to meet along the way. You may see yourself along the journey. So I ask that you examine your hearts and minds. Confirm your calling and election sure for Christ. He loves you! 2 36

Absalom, Absalom! has long been seen as one of William Faulkner's supreme creations, as well as one of the leading American novels of the twentieth century. In this collection Fred Hobson has brought together eight of the most stimulating essays on Absalom, essays written over a thirty-year span which approach the novel both formally and historically. Here are critical responses by Cleanth Brooks, John Irwin, Thadious Davis, and Eric Sundquist, as well as four essays published in the last decade. The casebook concludes with Faulkner's own remarks on the novel, delivered in a discussion with students at the University of Virginia. What emerges from all the selections is a rich and suggestive treatment of a work which Faulkner himself called "the best novel yet written by an American" and a less biased critic has called "the greatest American novel of the century... joining Moby-Dick and Huckleberry Finn at the pinnacle of American fiction."

Intended to inspire, deliver, uplift, enlighten, and encourage, this book shares some godly ideas and principles on how to resuscitate from the ashes of one’s losses and challenges, and to resurrect and blossom into a fuller, richer, and happier existence as intended by our Creator God who wants us to have life and have it more abundantly. The human journey on earth is dotted with experiences of difficult challenges of losses and intense encounters of unexpected barriers. While some sojourners face more of these challenges than others, everyone experiences them in one form or the other. This book is meant for all the individuals who are experiencing bereavement and grief; personal, career, job, or business losses; social, marital, or family-related losses; fortune or monetary losses; health-related losses; time-related losses; and or giant- and mountain-like challenges in their lives. Chapter 1 introduces the topic of overcoming your losses, giants, and mountains, including descriptions and definitions of different types of losses, giants, and mountains. Chapter 2 focuses on the painful occasion of the death of a loved one and some recommended steps to follow to make the experience more manageable, meaningful, and productive. Chapter 3 discusses how to deal with people's other losses, including career, business, and job losses; fortunes and property losses; social and relationship losses; loss of one’s health; and loss of one’s time. The challenge of dealing with your giants and mountains is discussed in chapter 4. Chapter 5 peeps into life beyond your losses, giants, and mountains and offers some suggestions on how to make that life more rewarding in your walk with God and man. Finally, chapter 6 discusses how to be born again into the Kingdom of God, to assist folks who want to be true Christians on how to get started.

In this final book in the David series, David has been king for thirty years. All Israel's enemies have been subdued. However, a new generation has arisen who do not remember how it was before David began ruling. They resent the taxes used to pay the army, and the fact the King is too busy to personally hear all their petty legal cases. They are ready for a change in government. When David's oldest son begins promising them everything they want if they will support him in overthrowing the King, David faces the most dangerous situation of his career. His sons, one after another, almost destroy the kingdom in their greed for the crown.

This is the first of a two part series which outlines the real reasons rulers would not readily subscribe to giving up their positional power, authority and relevance. Only those who are honest and had occupied such positions would understand the plight of the acclaimed bad ruler whom citizens insist must quit. It is one of the most difficult things for the human nature to comprehend and agree to implement at his expense. All those clamouring for the replacement of the ruler know their heart-hidden reasons, above the tenable reasons they give and defend stoutly, for such insistence. Rather than rubbish them, rulers under pressure to quit or who have even quit should be pitied because they are living a nightmare every minute they spend outside the throne which they once enjoyed. Most times, ousted rulers feel better dead than alive to adjust to regular lifestyle in the same domain in which they once ruled and reigned. Enjoy a happy reading.
