Through absolute trust in God that characterized the early American leadership as virtuous and courageous, the founding fathers were able to secure independence from the British and build the United States into a vibrant nation. The teachings of the Bible so much influenced the leadership that John Adams, the 2nd President said, “we recognize no sovereign but God, and no King as Jesus!” Barely a century later, however, civil war broke out after an attempt was made to assassinate Andrew Jackson, the 7th President during the Bank War. Other US Presidents like Abraham Lincoln (the 16th President) and John F. Kennedy (35th President) were not lucky enough to escape assassinations. Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd President said, “Educate and inform the whole mass of people. Enable them to see that it is in their best interest to preserve peace and order, and they will preserve them”. This book is an attempt of the author to help American citizens create peaceful instead of hostile environments through the studies and analyses of the quotes of the founding fathers, which are related to issues of Politics, Religions, Economies, Educations, American Values and Social Welfare.

A lot of battles and struggles for survival are taking place in many parts of the world. Most of those who are in power often use the Judiciary as a weapon against their political opponents. The unprecedented crimes and violations of human rights are due to the arrogance of many leaders who want to be in power by all means, negligence, ignorance of most members of the society, indifference and silence of well-informed citizens. Although the determinations of some patriotic citizens to secure the future of their countries are indicated through their battles against oppressive Governments but the compromised Judicial System is bringing evil days closer to the people. Thus fighting for Justice and to preserve the National Value System, Law and Order is causing more bloodshed of those who are ready to die for freedom. Through presentations of papers with cases that are treated in various dramas in this book, the author highlights the origins and causes of political and other problems that defy solutions in most parts of the world, indicating that the consequences of not fighting for Justice in any nation would be catastrophic.

That's not a bad word in my vocabulary. And he's the reason. Fundamentals are worth dying for and fighting for. But that fight has killed the Song in the hearts of many people. But not in Bill Piper.

A collection of humorous and nostalgic Americana stories—the beloved, bestselling classics that inspired the movie A Christmas Story Before Garrison Keillor and Spalding Gray there was Jean Shepherd: a master monologist and writer who spun the materials of his all-American childhood into immensely resonant—and utterly hilarious—works of comic art. In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash represents one of the peaks of his achievement, a compound of irony, affection, and perfect detail that speaks across generations. In God We Trust, Shepherd's wildly witty reunion with his Indiana hometown, disproves the adage “You can never go back.” Bending the ear of Flick, his childhood-buddy-turned-bartender, Shepherd recalls passionately his genuine Red Ryder BB gun, confesses adolescent failure in the arms of Junie Jo Prewitt, and relives a story of man against fish that not even Hemingway could rival. From pop art to the World's Fair, Shepherd's subjects speak with a universal irony and are deeply and unabashedly grounded in American Midwestern life, together rendering a wonderfully nostalgic impression of a more innocent era when life was good, fun was clean, and station wagons roamed the earth. A comic genius who bridged the gap between James Thurber and David Sedaris, Shepherd may have accomplished for Holden, Indiana, what Mark Twain did for Hannibal, Missouri.

Pete Greig is a worldwide authority and the face of a generation when it comes to prayer. One of the founders of the 24-7 prayer movement, he has seen, experienced, and chronicled amazing works of God in the world. While you might imagine him to be puffed up, Pete Greig is entirely the opposite. He is enchanting, down-to-earth, friendly, and most of all, very normal–and yet he tells preposterous tales about prayer (and they’re true). He is basically a regular dude who loves to talk with God. How to Pray is written to evoke a passion for prayer in everyone—the committed follower of Jesus as well as the skeptic and the scared. The enormous blessing of How to Pray is that it is accessible, full of surprising stories of answered prayer, and tremendously engaging. The basic idea is that prayer is a conversation between you and God. Pete Greig demystifies and reenchants prayer, helping you to find prayer achievable and enjoyable, and ultimately life-giving and life-changing. How to Pray is designed to be used together with The Prayer Course (a free video curriculum associated with the Alpha course), making it useful for personal and group or church-wide reading.
