A product of what God can do, Elizabeth Moto states that the Lord has been her mother, father, and guide through all her trials and tribulations in life. Without him, Elizabeth would not have known how to handle all of the situations in life she had to go through. There is not a better teacher in this world than God. Then one day, Elizabeth felt she couldn’t take it any longer. God’s Son stepped in and asked God to help his children in desperate need. Immediately God responded, and the problem was solved. Elizabeth Moto asks for you to look at her today: a person who never had time or liked to read or write has now completed two books and is trying to help someone else believe what God did for her and what God can do for you. Matt 19:26, Luke 1:37 KJV

A clear view of the reality of life! Wilfried Nelles outlines in this book the development of the human soul and consciousness from the embryo to the old man, from the expulsion from paradise to modern civilization. He describes the deep imprints that man experiences in the various stages of his life and the development that carries consciousness into an ever wider and higher dimension when one lets oneself fall into life without reservations. He exposes the life lies of modernity, its blind faith in technology and narcissistic worship of its own ideas, its delusions of world and self-improvement as youthful escapes from the reality of life, and shows a way to enter this reality. In the process, a map of human life emerges that leads into the practical elaboration and vivid description of a new psychology that leads beyond the loss of meaning in modernity without falling back into old patterns of belief. It is at the same time earthy and spiritual, true to life and full of love for the human without idolizing man. Nelles relies not only on his profound knowledge of Western humanities and social sciences as well as Far Eastern spiritual traditions, but above all on his own observation and life experience, which are described in clear and lively language and illustrated with many examples.

Equips parents to guide their young children through all major doctrines in an understandable, chapter-a-day format. Sure, it's easy to teach your children the essentials of Christian theology when you're a theology professor. But what about the rest of us? With Big Truths for Young Hearts, Bruce Ware, (you guessed it!) a theology professor, encourages and enables parents of children 6-14 years of age to teach through the whole of systematic theology at a level their children can understand. Parents can teach their children the great truths of the faith and shape their worldviews early, based on these truths. The book covers ten topics of systematic theology, devoting several brief chapters to each subject, making it possible for parents to read one chapter per day with their children. With this non-intimidating format, parents will be emboldened to be their children's primary faith trainers-and perhaps learn a few things themselves along the way.

As utopias question social ills and express human wants and unfulfilled dreams, they offer insights into the problems, desires and ideals of a certain time. This book uses this lens to examine cultural representations of ageing and old age in utopian writings from the Renaissance till today. The individual chapters offer detailed analyses and interpretations of numerous utopias from Thomas More’s Utopia (1516) to contemporary science fiction. Through close readings, the book explores age-related fears and ideals and investigates how perceptions of ageing and the life course as well as attitudes towards older people have developed over the centuries. Covering a large time span and a broad range of different utopias, the book identifies long-term developments and also puts certain dreams such as that of ever-lasting youth into a wider perspective. It thus enriches both our understanding of the cultural history of ageing and the history of utopian thought. The book will appeal to scholars and students from the fields of cultural gerontology and utopian studies, as well as literary studies and cultural history more generally.
