Book Description

Redneck Halo is not your ordinary book on bold faith. It is faith that is stubborn, daring and provocative. In this spiritually charged portrait of life, Sherri Cone shares the story of Star, a countrified vixen in search for God's truth. When Star and Constantine were surrounded by police for grand theft auto, the army of heaven laid a brass foundation. As Star implements twelve key principles to her life, God opened the flood gates of heaven and poured out so many blessing she could hardly contain them. This story will move passive Christians to their tenacity and ignite doubters and unbelievers to all step out "spiritually charged up" and reach for the success that waits you. That's the greatest story I have ever heard." Julio Lopez, age 20

Book Description

This intoxicating book by the author of The Revolution of Little Girls combines autobiography, reporting, and the dressed-up lies we call fiction. An underground classic since its initial publication, it is the wildly funny personal testament of Blanche McCrary Boyd, sixties radical and born-again Southerner, a lesbian with an un-P.C. passion for skydiving and stock-car racing, a graduate of Esalen and kundalini yoga who now takes her altered states "raw, like oysters." The Redneck Way of Knowledge is about family reunions and kamikaze love affairs. It is about crashing an arts festival with two precociously decayed Charleston aristocrats and watching the Pope deliver Communion at Yankee Stadium. It is about the selves we try on and slough off on the way to becoming who we are. Throughout, Blanche Boyd travels the expressway between the realm of the senses and the state of grace, and reports on the journey in prose that combines riotous humor, diamond-hard intelligence, and savage lyricism.

Book Description

The author of the Path of the Thunderbird series teams up the world’s best thief and a Holy Knight on a quest for blood across the Revived Earth. Narcissist, sociopath, and shameless backstabber Jubal Van Zandt is the best damn thief in the history of the Revived Earth . . . and he won’t shut up about it. But not everybody in the swampy, soggy, feudal future approves of Jubal’s vocation. The Guild—the religious fanatics who helped rebuild civilization after the collapse—in particular are waiting for their opportunity to slip the noose around his neck. Which is why when the renowned Guild knight Carina Xiao—aka the Bloodslinger—contacts Jubal about an off-the-books job that violates Guild Law, he’s too intrigued to say no. He is the best damn thief in the history of the Revived Earth, after all. Part bizarro ecopunk, part outworld thriller, part odd-couple roadtrip, Revenge of the Bloodslinger is a futurepunk quest for blood and betrayal across the Revived Earth. “Funny, sexy, action-packed, and a little bit cruel, with heartwarming moments of sincerity.” —D.J. Bodden, author of the Black Year series “What makes this a fascinating book to read are the personalities of the two lead characters . . . A refreshingly good read.” —SFcrowsnest

Book Description

Words are the foundation of all communication―the foundation upon which we build our understanding of the world around us … of nature, philosophy, faith, and of ourselves. But where do those words come from? Using humor and insight paired with in-depth etymological knowledge, the author explores the origins of over two hundred words commonly found within the sphere of religion and spirituality. Created to give voice to reflection and emotion, such words are like windows we can look through to see the meaning and wonder of our lives. As such, the more we know about how they evolved, the more we can appreciate the experiences and wisdom of those who created them and recognize how such words continue to evolve in use and meaning. This provocative book will help you rethink the words you use to speak about spirituality and faith. This book will give you a new appreciation for their origins and power.

Book Description

Millions of people travel and see only their physical destinations, failing to see themselves reflected in their itinerary, and neglecting to connect their thoughts with their experiences. "Cebu" is an account of my own trip to the Philippines, as well as a synopsis of my Filipino-American life. My family accompanied me on this trip, which was a proverbial voyage of discovery. Every place we visited stimulated in us a series of recollections and meditations. The things we saw and did were imbued with common emotion and unexpected meaning, culminating in a final, fictionalized synthesis of our adventure. To paraphrase T.S. Eliot: We arrive at the place where we started, only to know that place for the first time.

Book Description

In telling stories, Jesus often used imagination and metaphor, pulling attention-grabbing stories and images from the air. He asked his hearers to imagine someone who could examine a speck in another's eye while a plank protruded from his own, or to visualize a great camel squeezing through the eye of a needle. He spoke of a despised Samaritan who showed unexpected compassion and a bigger-barn-building landowner who thought only of himself. Jesus' hearers understood that the characters and events in those memorable stories didn't have to be real in order for the stories to be true. In his preaching experience of nearly forty years, Tony Cartledge, like many other preachers, has often told creative stories as an avenue for capturing the attention and engaging the minds of those listening to the message he was called upon to bring. His latest book, Telling Stories, contains a smorgasbord of stories and scripts that range from the possible to the fantastic, along with one that really happened. They include original stories in folktale style and monologues or dialogues designed to illuminate biblical characters. All of these stories are designed to inspire those who proclaim Christ to effectively utilize good stories in their own preaching.

The holy champion chosen to save the world is enslaved to a sadistic fallen angel and losing the battle for his sanity. The guy chosen to save the holy champion is his binge-drinking redneck brother. So, basically, the world is screwed. Meet the Whitney boys: Colt-a mentally unstable holy soldier with a rapidly deteriorating hold on reality. His last plan to rid the world of evil either failed horribly or went off without a hitch. With the constant torture and brainwashing, it's getting hard to be sure of anything but the sick attachment he's developing to his beautiful tormentor. Tough-a smart-mouthed honky-tonk hero trying to drown his problems in music, women, and good times. He hasn't spoken to Colt in five years-not since their disagreement over a nymphomaniac vampire turned into a drunken slugfest-but they're still brothers. Tough knows he can't leave Colt fighting for his life and his sanity alone. The question is whether Tough can fight off his personal demons long enough to save Colt from the literal ones. Halo Bound is the first book in the Redneck Apocalypse series.
