Helping Kids Move from Homelessness to Hope

Inside the lives of homeless teens--moving stories of pain and hope from Covenant House

Almost Home tells the stories of six remarkable young people from across the United States and Canada as they confront life alone on the streets. Each eventually finds his or her way to Covenant House, the largest charity serving homeless and runaway youth in North America. From the son of a crack addict who fights his own descent into drug addiction to a teen mother reaching for a new life, their stories veer between devastating and inspiring as they each struggle to find a place called home.

 * Includes a foreword by Newark Mayor Cory Booker
 * Shares the personal stories of six homeless youths grappling with issues such as drug addiction, family violence, prostitution, rejection based on sexual orientation, teen parenthood, and aging out of foster care into a future with limited skills and no support system
 * Gives voice to the estimated 1.6 million young people in the United States and Canada who run away or are kicked out of their homes each year
 * Includes striking photographs, stories of firsthand experiences mentoring and working with homeless and troubled youth, and practical suggestions on how to get involved
 * Discusses the root causes of homelessness among young people, and policy recommendations to address them
 * Provides action steps readers can take to fight youth homelessness and assist individual homeless young people
 * Written by Kevin Ryan, president of Covenant House, and Pulitzer Prize nominee and former New York Times writer Tina Kelley

Inviting us to get to know homeless teens as more than an accumulation of statistics and societal issues, this book gives a human face to a huge but largely invisible problem and offers practical insights into how to prevent homelessness and help homeless youth move to a hopeful future. For instance, one kid in the book goes on to become a college football player and counselor to at-risk adolescents and another becomes a state kickboxing champion. All the stories inspire us with victories of the human spirit, large and small. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each book will help support kids who benefit from Covenant House's shelter and outreach services.

How to Grow More Food Faster All Year Long

The Hydroponic Secret Garden

a4d6da38-f375-4edf-842c-75bd5442ed22-1

Like in St. Paul's day, the Church around the world-and particularly in the United States-now frequently faces hostility at the first mention of homosexuality in casual conversations or public-square debates. Author Matthew Rueger openly embraces this hot topic, giving you a framework for defending your beliefs by first exploring the relationship between sexual sin in ancient history and twenty-first-century tangles of the same flavor. Topics such as temptation, promiscuity, marriage, homosexuality, natural law, and the church's role in it all then swirl together to reveal our unifying need for a Savior. Rueger writes compassionately with a father's heart and adamantly with a determination to outline the truth about sexual morality from a reasoned Christian perspective. We need to expect the unpleasant from our opponents, arm ourselves with answers to common objections, and speak in clarity and love. And let's not lose sight of the church as a place of refuge for those who are battered down by their desires. Real people with real struggles are being lost. Find Your Voice. Book jacket.

The Hidden History of the Billionaires Behind the Rise of the Radical Right

Why is America living in an age of profound economic inequality? Why, despite the desperate need to address climate change, have even modest environmental efforts been defeated again and again? Why have protections for employees been decimated? Why do hedge-fund billionaires pay a far lower tax rate than middle-class workers? The conventional answer is that a popular uprising against "big government" led to the rise of a broad-based conservative movement. But as Jane Mayer shows in this powerful, meticulously reported history, a network of exceedingly wealthy people with extreme libertarian views bankrolled a systematic, step-by-step plan to fundamentally alter the American political system. The network has brought together some of the richest people on the planet, foremost among them Charles and David Koch. Their core beliefs--that taxes are a form of tyranny; that government oversight of business is an assault on freedom--are sincerely held. But these beliefs also advance their personal and corporate interests: Many of their companies have run afoul of federal pollution, worker safety, securities, and tax laws. When libertarian ideas proved decidedly unpopular with voters, the Koch brothers and their allies decided on another path. If they pooled their vast resources, they could fund an interlocking array of organizations that could work in tandem to influence and ultimately control academic institutions, think tanks, the courts, statehouses, Congress, and, they hoped, the presidency. The political operatives the network employs are disciplined, smart, and at times ruthless. And their efforts have been remarkably successful. Libertarian views on taxes and regulation, once far outside the mainstream and still rejected by most Americans, are ascendant in the majority of state governments, the Supreme Court, and Congress. Meaningful environmental, labor, finance, and tax reform has been stymied. Jane Mayer spent five years conducting hundreds of interviews--including with several sources within the network--and scoured public records, private papers, and court proceedings in reporting this book. In a taut and utterly convincing narrative, she traces the byzantine trail of the billions of dollars spent by the network and provides vivid portraits of the colorful figures behind the new American oligarchy. Dark Money is a book that must be read by anyone who cares about the future of American democracy.

Jesus said: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the Mouth of God” (Mat. 4:4). The Word of God is, pure and simple, the single most important thing on the face of the Earth. As someone has rightly said: • Much Bible, much Freedom! • A little Bible, a little Freedom! • No Bible, no Freedom! In his book, “Brother Swaggart, How Do I Understand the Bible?”, Brother Swaggart has tried his best to address every major Doctrine given to us in the Word of God. This is material that is necessary for every Believer to know and understand. Hopefully, we have addressed these great subjects in the Word of God in such a way to make it simple and easy to comprehend. The following are some of the subjects addressed: • The Doctrine Of The Bible • The Doctrine Of Grace • The Doctrine Of “Justification By Faith” • The Doctrine Of Our Lord Jesus Christ • The Doctrine Of Satan • The Doctrine Of Sin • The Doctrine Of The Baptism With The Holy Spirit

Brother Swaggart, How Can I Understand the Bible?

6a8b88fe-7603-4080-a8c6-f05e8ed2fe46-1

Over a period of time, many, many questions concerning the Bible come into our office. We take each one of them seriously. In developing this book, as it regards questions and answers, we have done our best to answer those questions most often asked. We have gone into some detail, which hopefully will provide the answers desired, and all according to the Word of God. Of course, our selections most definitely have not covered all that we would like to address. Perhaps in the near future a second volume will be necessary. Prayerfully, the answers given will open up the Word of God as it regards the subject matter at hand. Here are samples of some of the questions: • Who is Satan and where do demon spirits come from? • What is Blaspheming the Holy Spirit? • What is the difference between The Great White Throne Judgment and The Judgment Seat of Christ? • What should be the Christian’s position in respect to alcohol? • Are homosexuals born that way?

A Journey Through Scriptures for Seekers and New Believers

The perfect starting point for any believer to begin a powerful journey through the Bible! No one would argue that the Bible is a large, and sometimes confusing, book! Comprised of 66 different volumes, 39 books of the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament, it seems to be a complex assortment of history, laws, prophecy, and wisdom literature. With insights from Genesis 1-11 (the foundation), Exodus 20:1-17 (the Ten Commandments), John (the Gospel), Romans (a letter from Paul to Christians), and Revelation 21-22 (the fulfillment in heaven), Begin presents a foundational overview that you can build your Bible study around. Get excited about God's Word and find yourself wanting to know more each day!
