Swashbuckling Faith Exploring for Treasure with Pirates of the Caribbean【電子書籍】[ Tim Wesemann ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Pirates, Patches, and Parrots!</strong></p> <p>What unexpected markers do you find along your faith journey, ones that lead you closer to God? In <em>Swashbuckling Faith</em> , author and former pastor Tim Wesemann helps you find surprising doorways to God’s truth in the scenes and dialogue of the <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> movie series. Created merely to entertain, these movies find Captain Jack Sparrow and his cohorts unintentionally leaving behind traces of truth ready to be explored and expanded in light of the Bible. Wesemann springboards from these glimpses to explore scriptural lessons on faith, prayer, contentment, spiritual warfare, forgiveness, hope, and much more. When your biblical perception starts finding treasures of truth in popular culture and everyday occurrences, you’ll set sail for the adventure of a lifetime!</p> <p><em><strong>“Captain</strong></em> <em>Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir.”</em></p> <p>Captain Jack Sparrow (that’s Johnny Depp, to you lovers of cinema) is the charming pirate in the popular <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> movies that buried Hollywood in gold. The films captured imaginations young and old, but now Tim Wesemann invites you to depart on an even greater adventureーfor real!</p> <p>Following the treasure map of God’s Word, this dangerous exploration will reveal priceless gems of not-so-buried, no-so-pirate booty! You’ll uncover hidden traces of truth and priceless pearls of faith. Lessons on prayer, contentment, spiritual warfare, forgiveness, and hope will awaken you to messages your true Captain is conveying all around you. Because even a pirate movie, looked at through new lenses, can point the way to tangible riches of biblical truth.</p> <p>“Funny and whimsical with just a touch of sheer insanity.”</p> <p>Dr. Timothy Paul Jones</p> <p>Pastor and author of <em>Finding God in a Galaxy Far, Far Away</em></p> <p>“Shiver me timbers! As a parent of teens and preteens, I can’t wait to share these briny depths of faith and inspiration with my family!”</p> <p>Tricia Goyer</p> <p>Award-winning author of <em>Life Interrupted</em></p> <p><em>“A veritable treasure trove of wisdom and piratey-good fun that’s not only entertaining to read, but draws you closer to God.”</em></p> <p><em>Mike Nappa</em></p> <p><em>Bestselling and award-winning author</em></p> <p>“<em>Swashbuckling Faith</em> is a fresh, funny, and surprisingly rich book that falls somewhere between a devotional and a pirate manual.”</p> <p>Dave Meurer</p> <p>Author of <em>If You Want Breakfast in Bed, Sleep in the Kitchen</em></p> <p>“Full of life-changing, priceless gems from God’s Word. You’ll be ‘hooked!’”</p> <p>Rhonda Rhea</p> <p>Radio personality, humor columnist, author of <em>WhoPut the Cat in the Fridge</em></p> <p><strong>Story Behind the Book</strong></p> <p>Tim Wesemann is not a pirate, nor does he act as one on TV. While “swashbuckler” may not appear on his resume, he loves exploring for biblical treasure and often discovers it where you might least expect itーincluding a secular movie with pirates who pillage, plunder, and pilfer. Even scenes and dialogue from <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> served to help grow his faith in God. While the movie is a favorite in the Wesemann household, Tim also draws from past experiences as a pastor and his present insights as a fulltime Christian author and speaker.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,872円

Martini Alley and Other Swashbuckling Adventures of a Certified Klutz【電子書籍】[ Diane Klutz ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Comical and light-hearted stories of two people and their often-misguided quest for adventure. Besieged by mishaps, the Klutzes face each venture like the swashbucklers of oldーhead-on with confidence and enthusiasm. It was spring of 1971 in Fort Gordon, Georgia. Nurse Lieutenant Diane Mumper had recently returned from duty in South Vietnam and was assigned a room in the Bachelor Officer's Quarters across the hall from Lieutenant Steve Klutz, who had also recently returned. They had little in common except, like many other returnees, they were hell-bent on having a good time and remaining single. Despite being nabbed by the Military Police for skinny dipping in the Officer's Club pool and a bar-room brawl in an off-limits pool hall that nearly resulted in injuries, Diane fell in love with the effervescent Klutz, realizing that her life would never be boring. And she was correct. Soon after marriage, the Klutzes begin their search for the perfect place to live and the perfect life. Building a house in the Colorado Rockies becomes a nightmare as crews escape for the winter, leaving the couple to finish it themselves. Undeterred by past mistakes, they tackle remodeling projects, including a 1920's home, Bob Villa style and later a home on the Gulf Coast using a less than savory work crew. Hitting mid-life with gusto, the Klutzes embark on a new adventureーboating. Beginning with tattoos, they discover the agony and ecstasy of yachting within the Red River and later the Texas Gulf waters. Whoever coined the phrase, "Buying a boat was the happiest day in my life second only to selling that boat," must have been thinking about the Klutzes as they merrily drift from one boating mishap to another. Thoroughly enjoying being on the water, the Klutzes decided that being in the water would be better, so they jumped into the sport of scuba-diving. Within the emerald waters of the Florida Panhandle, the often-murky waters of Bonaire, and the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean, the Klutzes encountered a world of color, beauty, and wonder. However, they also discovered to their dismay that the calmness of fifty feet below the surface could hide choppy waters above. Who knew you could throw up in full diving gear? Leaving the watery world behind, Steve and Diane's new adventure took them to the open road aboard a forty-plus foot motor home and much like Lucy and Desi in the "Long, Long Trailer" soon realized that disaster could lurk in the most harmless of places. From busted black water holding tanks to nearly plunging off a cliff in the Colorado Rockies, the Klutzes forged forward with gusto and determination. As the end of this eccentric and comic kind of marriage story approaches, there comes the realization that there is no ending. And there can't be for as long as Steve and Diane have breath, they will continue to dream and scheme about what could be next.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 399円
