Paperback. Condition: Very Good. God has acted and Jesus has acted . but what are we doing? Jesus wants us to act. That is one of the insights in this book of devotions that William P. Buddy Nelson wrote during the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to stay in touch with his faith and to reimagine the future of the church. While writing, he discovered that when living through a pandemic-or a crisis of any kind-God is there to provide a refreshed understanding of His revelation. In fact, God's message is exactly what we all need to hear in times of personal or professional crisis. While these devotions highlight numerous topics and challenges, the overarching theme focuses on how everyday events can help us understand God's Word. In doing so, we can learn how to face and overcome challenges with faith rather than fear. Remember when the world is at its darkest place, God challenges his children to shine the brightest.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The film Rabbit-Proof Fence is based on this true account of Doris Pilkington's mother Molly, who as a young girl led her two sisters on an extraordinary 1,600 kilometre walk home. Under Western Australia's invidious removal policy of the 1930s, the girls were taken from their Aboriginal families at Jigalong on the edge of the Little Sandy Desert, and transported halfway across the state to the Native Settlement at Moore River, north of Perth. Here Aboriginal children were instructed in the ways of white society and forbidden to speak their native tongue. The three girls - aged 8, 11 and 14 - managed to escape from the settlement's repressive conditions and brutal treatment. Barefoot, without provisions or maps, they set out to find the rabbit-proof fence, knowing it passed near their home in the north. Tracked by Native Police and search planes, they hid in terror, surviving on bush tucker, desperate to return to the world they knew.…
