Christs Saints

The devil uses any means to kill us. For so many years, in the United States, the Polish people have been the brunt of very poor ethnic jokes. It is true, every new group coming into our free society inherits the suffering that the minority group before them endured. It's like being a freshman in college. The only difference is, growing up out of the persecution is swifter, but the freshman is only degraded for a year, not a lifetime.

Live in the period of 1830-1844. Feel the personal thoughts of Brewster Cabot who followed, loved, and suffered persecution with one proclaimed to be a prophet, Joseph Smith, the man who started The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Since the beginning of the earth, all of the Lord's prophets have looked with longing toward the end times, when the many promises of the Lord would be fulfilled and the Kingdom of God would finally be established upon the earth. With a larger canon than most religions, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have access to a great many doctrines regarding this topic. Yet the words of Isaiah, which were so plain and simple to Nephi, tend to mystify the Latter-day Saints. The words of Ezekiel go largely unread. The dire warnings in 3rd Nephi are casually skimmed over. Why?...

Book of Mormon principles that have changed my life. This book is not a commentary, nor has it been my objective to explain in these pages the "meaning" of Book of Mormon verses. Rather, it contains chapter by chapter truths that I have gleaned as I have read the Book of Mormon and that have affected me literally eternally. Since 1960, the Book of Mormon has been an integral part of my life. I have read it cover-to-cover on the average of more than once a year since then and continue to do so. My impressions included in this book come from extensive notes that I have made in margins of my ...

L'étonnant fortune de cet ouvrage, œuvre de piété chrétienne de la fin du XIVe siècle ou du début du XVe siècle, tient du prodige. Longtemps, dans les monastères d'Europe aucun livre n'eut pareil succès, ce qui fit dire à Fontenelle : ""L'Imitation de Jésus-Christ" est le plus beau livre qui soit parti de la main d'un homme, puisque l'Evangile n'en vient pas". Au cours des siècles, l'influence de l'Imitation de Jésus-Christ ne s'est pas démentie.

Mary the Mother of God, the first volume in the series Sermons by Saint Gregory Palamas, is a collection of some of the greatest homilies on the Theotokos ever written, including the most celebrated of all Palamas’ writings, his sermon “On the Entry of the Mother of God into the Holy of Holies”.

He's become a workaholic, at least that's what his parents believe. They want him to stop, and prove to them he can have a life outside of work. No promotions until he makes it happen. Well they can't dispute he has a life outside of work if he gets married... She's put her entire life into her career. But as she sees that she's the last single one of the family, and everyone looks incredibly happy, she realizes it's time for a life outside of work. But who has time for dating? Certainly not her. So the matchmaker all her siblings used is her best bet.

She was relentlessly teased in high school. Then the worst happened, and left serious scars behind. She's not sure she can ever get past them, but has to try. She can't stay lonely forever. No one wants to grow old as the crazy cat lady, after all. He had a rough childhood, and made some really bad decisions back then. Decisions he really regrets now. But when the biggest regret of all walks back into his life, can he find a way to fix it?

She just wants to stop the endless string of setups. Why can't her mom get it into her head that she's not interested in these guys she keeps inviting to dinner? And on Christmas Day! What is she thinking? Maybe her best friend is right, she should let a professional do the setting up instead. Then maybe her mother will stop. He thought his sister and her best friend were crazy, but look at them. They're so incredibly happy, still. Maybe this matchmaker does know what she's doing. It would be so easy to have her bring him his perfect match. Dare he try it?

She did it, she's made all her career goals. Now it's time to find a husband, finally. The matchmaker worked for her bestie, it'll work for her, too. Right? He's so tired of dating, he could just scream. how many girlfriends will it take to finally find the one that'll stick? There's got to be a better way. Maybe a matchmaker will do the trick, it's worth a try at least. But when things get scary, will he stick it out or run scared?

She's got to get away from here, far away. She loves her daddy, but just can't handle her father's views on women a minute longer. She's following her sister's example and calling the matchmaker. Hopefully her match will live far away from here. He's searched the islands for a wife, and none of them feel right. He's tired of looking, and turns to a matchmaker. Hopefully she'll find him the perfect match to create an ohana with. Ohana is everything, and he needs the perfect bride to help him start his.

They fight like cats and dogs, when they aren't totally avoiding each other. She's waiting for her perfect match, and he's not eligible since he's not one of Willow's clients. But Willow's on the way, he can change that status. But is it too late? She hates him at this point. How could this ever work, even if Willow did agree that they were a match? Could she ever forgive him?

My soul bleeds, so I wrote this book. It's a fictional tale about a man who watches his church life slowly turn toxic, and how people can slowly turn off-beam, and the gnawing pain that follows,including martial seperation. It's a fictionalized account of my three decades of experience of dealing with difficulties, and about the repeated times when I have had to confront local leadership about local aberrations. I'm not sure if it is a fairy tale, a horror story, or a tragedy. Certainly it is tragicomic, but that is not something we should be associating with church service. Read the book, ...

She finally talked her friend into calling a matchmaker, and her friend was matched right away. But she wasn't. She let go of her job and her apartment, moved into her parent's home, and waited. Then Willow finally calls months later with her match. She could hardly wait a second longer, until she got on that plane. Now she couldn't be more nervous. She was shy, will she even be able to talk to him? Will he be able to accept her tendency to disappear for hours, sucked into her hobby? Would he be upset that she'd rather stay home then go out and socialize? She'd always dreamed of a husband ...
