I wrote this book to help Christians understand and know the importance of studying the Bible and finding God's truths for themselves. The Bible says to study to show yourself approved of God (2 Tim. 2:15). We need to know the Bible to stay on track in life. Jesus said in Matthew 4:4, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." In this book, I show the importance of natural food, and spiritual food that is required to remain healthy. Your body and spirit both need to be fed. In this book, I show you the importance of feeding both, to grow and...

At fifteen, Linda Darnell left her Texas home and normal adolescence to live the Hollywood dream promoted by fan magazine and studio publicity offices. She appeared in dozens of films and won international acclaim for Blood and Sand (playing opposite Tyrone Power), Forever Amber, A Letter to Three Wives, and the original version of Unfaithfully Yours.

Driven by a stage mother to become rich and Famous, but unable to cope with the career she had longed for as a child, Darnell soon was caught in a downward spiral of drinking, failed marriages, and...

Van Johnson's dazzling smile, shock of red hair, and suntanned freckled cheeks made him a movie-star icon. Among teenaged girls in the 1940s, he was popularized as the bobbysoxer's heartthrob.

He won the nation's heart, too, by appearing in a series of blockbuster war films--A Guy Named Joe, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, Weekend at the Waldorf, and Battleground. Perennially a leading man opposite June Allyson, Esther Williams, Judy Garland, and Janet Leigh, he rose to fame radiating the sunshine image Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer chose for him, that of an affable,...

Throughout the 1940s, Zachary Scott (1914-1965) was the model for sophisticated, debonair villains in American film. His best-known roles include a mysterious criminal in The Mask of Dimitrios and the indolent husband in Mildred Pierce. He garnered further acclaim for his portrayal of villains in Her Kind of Man, Danger Signal, and South of St. Louis. Although he earned critical praise for his performance as a heroic tenant farmer in Jean Renoir's The Southerner, Scott never quite escaped typecasting.

In Zachary Scott: Hollywood's...

From the late 1930s to the mid-1950s, five big movie studios-Paramount, Warner Bros., Twentieth Century-Fox, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), and RKO-dominated Hollywood's film industry. This "big studio system" operated primarily as a series of assembly-line production factories. Ideally, each churned out fifty-two movies a year, enough to supply showcase theaters across the country with a new lineup each week-with profit being the overriding goal.

Of this era, veteran screenwriter Julius Epstein (Casablanca) said: "It was not called the motion picture industry for nothing. It] was...

Almost two decades after his death, John Wayne is still America's favorite movie star. More than an actor, Wayne is a cultural icon whose stature seems to grow with the passage of time. In this illuminating biography, Ronald L. Davis focuses on Wayne's human side, portraying a complex personality defined by frailty and insecurity as well as by courage and strength.

Davis traces Wayne's story from its beginnings in Winterset, Iowa, to his death in 1979. This is not a story of instant fame: only after a decade in budget westerns did Wayne receive serious consideration, for his...

Pension funds own significant shares of the world's largest corporations. However, the beneficiaries of pensions often have little or no say in corporate governance issues ? in spite of their status as owners and even though the environmental, social, and economic performance of these corporations will impact not only their retirement accounts but also the very world into which they will retire.

Democratizing Pension Funds analyzes the reasons for this passivity, pointing to conflicts of interest with respect to corporate governance activity in pension plans and also to...

This book is about how we need a savior. The penalty for sin is death, but Christ takes our sins and saves our souls when we accept him. This book deals with the issues of life without Christ-how we live in a sinful world, cursed by God, until you accept his son Jesus. Did you ever wonder why your life is so messed up, even though you might be a good person? In this book I explain why: it's because if you're not born again-saved by the cross of Christ and the blood of Christ-you're living in a world that God cursed. On the cross Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law so that we could...

I wrote this book to inform God's people of His ways of processing and changing us. He does it through the inner working of the Holy Spirit and through His fire. God's people don't understand His internal workings. He said in Mal. 3:2-4 he would send His messenger and refine us as silver and gold, talking about His people. The messenger was Jesus.

Jesus said He would baptize us with the Holy Ghost and fire. He was talking about purging our sins and purifying us of them. The fire of God, through the inner working of the Holy Spirit, burns the sin up and delivers us, if we repent and...

God is the creator of all life. God is supernatural, a spirit. He created the heavens and earth. There's nothing hard for God. In this book I show God's mercy and goodness toward mankind, his love toward us. The Lord has always met his people's needs, a lot of times supernaturally. All we have to do is believe God and his Word. God can do anything: raise the dead, heal, bless, meet needs whatever they are. We have to understand that God loves us, and wants to bless us. In John 14:12, the Bible says that the works that Jesus did, believers will do also, only they will be greater works...
