Book Description
The book that inspired the major motion picture I Saw the Light. In his brief life, Hank Williams created one of the defining bodies of American music. Songs such as "Your Cheatin' Heart," "Hey, Good Lookin'," and "Jambalaya" sold millions of records and became the model for virtually all country music that followed. But by the time of his death at age twenty-nine, Williams had drunk and drugged and philandered his way through two messy marriages and out of his headline spot on the Grand Ole Opry. Even though he was country music's top seller, toward the end he was so famously unreliable that he was lucky to get a booking in a beer hall. Colin Escott's enthralling, definitive biograph -- now the basis of the major motion picture I Saw the Light -- vividly details the singer's stunning rise and his spectacular decline, revealing much that was previously unknown or hidden about the life of this country music legend. Originally published as Hank William: The Biography.

Book Description
Safety is something every child should feel, and count on. It's a tragic thing to grow up never feeling safe in your own home. This is not a story about a poverty stricken waif who escaped the mean streets of Philly, or the absurd insanity of a life of hedonistic wealth; Peg is a product of a 'normal' middle class, cookie-cutter family from the 1950's, whose life appeared average in every way-except it wasn't. Although looking happy and wholesome on the outside, insidious things were happening on the inside, which makes her tale even more of a wake-up call to all the 'normal' people out there who can't understand why they are full of rage, or guilt, or low self-esteem. Living through Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Peg has a unique, even humorous way of telling her story, while offering hope to all who are suffering. She is living proof that you can live through hell and get better instead of bitter and shows the reader not only how to survive, but how to thrive. This is a true story of the goodness of God. It is a story of faith, hope and love; and how anyone's heart can be healed. From childhood abuse, to an unwilling immersion into the kingdom of darkness, I Saw the Light... But HE Saw Me First is a beacon of hope for anyone who has suffered emotional or physical abuse, rejection, or abandonment.

Languages : en
Pages : 242

Book Description
When we call ourselves Christians, we expect that our love for Jesus, our hunger for His presence, our urgent longing to see Him again will be a constant, motivating force in our lives, writes Anne Graham Lotz. Yet sometimes . . . in the busyness of our days or the duties of our jobs or the familiar habits of our worship or the everyday routine of our homes, the longing becomes complacency, and we sleep through opportunities to be with Him. Anne knows from personal experience that it's then, as we're drifting in comfortable complacency, that we most need a wake-up call--a jolt that pushes us to seek out a revival of our passion for Jesus that began as a blazing fire but somehow has died down to an ineffective glow. The revival we need now is not a tent meeting or a series of church services designed to save the lost. It's something completely different: authentic, personal revival. In I Saw the Lord, Anne shares the revival lessons she has carried to audiences throughout the world, showing you how you can experience an authentic, deeper, richer relationship with God in a life-changing, fire-blazing revival. It begins here. Now. Open this book and hear the wake-up call. Then get ready for the fire of revival to fall . . . on you!

I Saw A Light And Came Here

Author: Ph. D Erlendur Haraldsson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781910121924
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 304

Book Description
I Saw A Light And Came Here is the result of decades of scholarly research and investigations into past-life memories, primarily of children. Erlendur Haraldsson, a psychologist, has over two decades of experience behind him, having investigated some one hundred cases in the field. He worked closely with Ian Stevenson, M.D., of the University of Virginia, who began systematic studies of "cases of the reincarnation type," but soon broke new ground with psychological studies of children who insist they remember episodes from past lives. Haraldsson invited anthropologist James Matlock to join him because of his thorough familiarity with research around the globe. This book deals with various aspects of past-life memory and attempts to answer the questions that will inevitably come up in the minds of thoughtful readers.
