If you’ve ever found yourself questioning God’s timing, you’ll love the witty, tongue-in-cheek insights of Karon Phillips Goodman’s You’re Late Again, Lord! With nearly a quarter-million copies sold in previous editions, You’re Late Again, Lord! clearly speaks to a felt need—as the subtitle says, this is “The Impatient Woman’s Guide to God’s Timing.” Through chapter titles such as “Knowing Who You Are” and “Rediscovering the Peace That’s Hidden by Worry,” you’ll be encouraged to wait on God, and to spend that waiting time purposefully—by deepening your relationship with the Lord. Con estilo ingenioso e irónico, Karon Phillips Goodman ofrece apreciaciones que sin duda tocarán cuerdas sensibles en cualquier mujer que haya cuestionado el tiempo del Señor. Con casi un cuarto de millón de copias vendidas en ediciones anteriores, ¡Señor, estás tarde otra vez! habla claramente de una necesidad sentida, como lo sugiere el subtítulo: «La guía del tiempo divino para la mujer impaciente». A través de títulos de capítulos tales como «Averigua quién eres» y «Redescubre la paz que está escondida debido a la preocupación», se anima a las lectoras a desear esperar en Dios y a pasar resueltamente tiempo de espera, a través de profundizar su relación con el Señor.
Dionisio Vivo, a young South American lecturer in philosophy, is puzzled by the hideously mutilated corpses that keep turning up outside his front door. To his friend, Ramon, one of the few honest policemen in town, the message is all too clear: Dionisio’s letters to the press, exposing the drug barons, must stop; and although Dionisio manages to escape the hit-men sent to get him, he soon realizes that others are more vulnerable, and his love for them leads him to take a colossal revenge. Senor Vivo and the Coca Lord is the second novel in a trilogy set in South America. It won a Commonwealth Writers Prize in 1992.
