Dean Inserra says we live in a country that is full of what he calls “unsaved Christians.” We'll talk today about what he means by that. Our hosts are Dave and Ann Wilson I'm Bob Lepine. When they actually hear someone talk about: “What is the gospel?” they've never heard it before.īob: This is FamilyLife Today for Monday, December 28 th. It's a person that maybe wanted enough of “Jesus”-and I'm putting air quotes in the air with “Jesus”-enough of “Jesus” to be associated with, but not enough to be inconvenienced. It's an American, vague, imaginary kind of friend creation. Pastor Dean Inserra says there's a reason for that.ĭean: We have to realize that the God and the Jesus they've heard about their entire lives is not the God and Jesus of the Bible. Bob: You probably have friends or family members, who go to church regularly, who, if you ask them, would say, “Of course, I'm a Christian.” And yet, you still wonder if they're saved. ![]()

Shadow Me gives Kenji’s view of the lead-up to the dramatic events at the end of Restore Me, and unlike the previous tie-in stories, it adds depth to the series. An expensive book for collectors looking to line their bookshelves with the complete series.Īnother tiny, expensive paperback with two short stories linked to the Shatter Me series – this time from Kenji’s point of view. ![]() ![]() Juliette’s journal provided a deeper insight into her state of mind at the start of the series, but again there were no new elements for the reader. I’m glad I read the short stories ( Destroy Me and Fracture Me), but I was disappointed that there were no dramatic revelations from these two important characters. Juliette’s journal was interesting, but we’ve read some of it before, and most (if not all) of it features in the fourth novel in the series. While it was interesting to read sections of the story with Warner and Adam as narrators, I didn’t think the book contributed much to the series. This is an tiny, expensive paperback featuring two short stories that link to the first three books of the Shatter Me series, along with the contents of Juliette’s journal. ![]() 6/23/2023 0 Comments The Stowaway by Clyde Edwards![]() With a character roster that’s small and distinctive, the book’s unique setting and situations help keep interest alive when the horror aspect flags. Demonic possession may be a tried-and-true horror staple, but by placing the maritime tale in the early 1800s, Edwards imbues the old theme with new life. ![]() Edwards crafts a well-written, imaginative and quick-moving horror tale that’s plenty enjoyable. Kit suddenly realizes that it’s not just his uncle he must save-but he himself. However, what the group hadn’t counted on is the evil entity in the orb’s having its own agenda and destination, which it will stop at nothing to achieve. By the time John lands at his destination, he barely resembles a man, and Kit, with the aid of several shipmates and a West Indian mystic, tries to rid his uncle of the orb. ![]() To find the truth, he stows away on John’s ship just before it sets sail. ![]() John’s appearance and demeanor begin to change from handsome and benevolent to gaunt and harsh, and Kit suspects the orb is to blame. ![]() His uncle John, a ship’s captain, has returned from a long voyage with a mysterious golden orb that he jealously guards. In Boston of 1808, young Kit Cabot toils away as a clerk for his family’s shipping company while dreaming of adventure on the high seas. In Edwards’ debut horror novel, a ship’s captain discovers a mysterious orb that gradually infuses him with a malevolent personality. ![]() ![]() ![]() According to Lucy Sante, " The Count of Monte Cristo has become a fixture of Western civilization's literature. ![]() The book is considered a literary classic today. As the powerful and mysterious Count of Monte Cristo, he enters the fashionable Parisian world of the 1830s to avenge himself. After Faria dies, Dantès escapes and finds the treasure. Over the course of their long imprisonment, Faria educates Dantès and tells him of a cache of treasure he found. A fellow prisoner, Abbé Faria, correctly deduces that romantic rival Fernand Mondego, envious crewmate Danglars, and double-dealing magistrate De Villefort are responsible. The historical setting is a fundamental element of the book, an adventure story centrally concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness.īefore he can marry his fiancée Mercédès, Edmond Dantès, a French nineteen-year-old first mate of the Pharaon, is falsely accused of treason, arrested, and imprisoned without trial in the Château d'If, a grim island fortress off Marseille. It begins on the day that Napoleon left his first island of exile, Elba, beginning the Hundred Days period when Napoleon returned to power. You can keep your musketeers to me, Monte Cristo is the acme of Alexandre Dumas pere's oeuvre, demonstrating his inimitable mastery of high adventure, deadly intrigue, revenge, and general. The story takes place in France, Italy, and islands in the Mediterranean during the historical events of 1815–1839: the era of the Bourbon Restoration through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France.
