    New York Times bestselling author Rob Bell, whom The New Yorker describes as “one of the most influential Christian leaders in the country,” does for the concept of God what he did for heaven and hell in his book Love Wins: He shows how traditional ideas have grown stale and dysfunctional and how to return vitality and vibrancy to lives of faith today.Pastor Rob Bell explains why both culture and the church resist talking about God, and shows how we can reconnect with the God who is pulling us forward into a better future. Bell uses his characteristic evocative storytelling to challenge everything you think you know about God. What We Talk About When We Talk About God tackles the misconceptions about God and reveals how God is with us, for us, ahead of us, and how understanding this could change the entire course of our lives.

    Do you keep an eye on world events through mainstream media? If so, chances are you have missed out on many essential news stories from countries around the world. 
    While many news outlets will cover European, U.K., and U.S. news in great detail, they often leave out essential news from other continents, especially Africa. 
    And yet, that doesn’t mean that newsworthy events occur there every day, just like in the UK. 
    In fact, some of the most newsworthy stories have occurred in Africa in recent years. 
    If you want to learn more about the conflicts of African communities, you have come to the right place. 
    Introducing, But, Whose Fault? Part One, a true story based in Ghana, where two AK-47s mysteriously vanished before reappearing without ammunition. 
    Not only does this book shed light on an incident that is still to be answered to this day, but it also highlights one of the many conflicts that African communities go through and are never displayed on the big screen. 
    In many ways, the conflict surrounding the missing rifles is a point of convergence of the exploitation of Africa and the negligence shown toward the local people and their value to the world. 
    It is one of the main reasons it continues to go unnoticed in many countries, yet it is a story that must be told. 
    Inside, But, Whose Fault? Part One, discover: 
    ●	essential background information about the local people and community 
    ●	the political context behind the events that unfolded 
    ●	the initial factors that influenced the confrontation 
    ●	the company behind the Nguvu mining project 
    ●	the disappearance, search, and fallout from the missing rifles 
    If you are at all interested in the rich history and real-life stories of Africa, this book is a must-read.

    The remarkable true saga of an exceptional animal—and the no less exceptional man who led him to greatness: “Seabiscuit had nothing on Beautiful Jim Key.” —Sacramento Bee 
     
    Beautiful Jim Key—the onetime ugly duckling of a scrub colt who became one of the most beloved heroes of the turn of the twentieth century—was adored not for his beauty and speed but rather for his remarkable abilities to read, write, spell, do mathematics, even debate politics. Trained with patience and kindness by one of the most renowned horse whisperers of his day—former slave, Civil War veteran, and self-taught veterinarian Dr. William Key—Jim performed in expositions across the country to wildly receptive crowds for nine glorious years, smashing box office records, clearing towering hurdles of skepticism and prejudice, and earning the respect and admiration of some of the most influential figures of the era, from Booker T. Washington to President William McKinley.
