No matter how rewarding an experience, reading the Bible from cover to cover can be a daunting task. Now, author Jennifer Price breaks down this task into bite-size increments for a fifty-two week journey. Now is the Time for God's Children to Know His Word is a week-by-week instructional study manual. It is best read along with "The One Year Chronological New Living Translation" Bible that organizes daily reading passages in the order events actually occurred. This easy to follow study helps readers connect Biblical events to their counterparts in history by providing chronological notes, vivid maps, inductive study questions, and insightful resource materials. From high school youth to adults, readers are prompted to finish what they began as the material enhances the reading experience and an understanding of what is being read.

In five sharply drawn chapters, Flight Maps charts the ways in which Americans have historically made connections -- and missed connections -- with nature. Beginning with an extraordinary chapter on the extinction of the Passenger Pigeon and the accompanying belligerent early view of nature's inexhaustibility, Price then moves on to discuss the Audubon Society's founding campaign in the 1890s against the extravagant use of stuffed birds to decorate women's hats. At the heart of the book is an improbable and extremely witty history of the plastic pink flamingo, perhaps the totem of Artifice and Kitsch -- nevertheless a potent symbol through which to plumb our troublesome yet powerful visions of nature. From here the story of the affluent Baby-Boomers begins. Through an examination of the phenomenal success of The Nature Company, TV series such as Northern Exposure and Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, and the sport-utility vehicle craze, the author ruminates on our very American, very urbanized and suburbanized needs, discontents, and desires for meaningful, yet artificially constructed connections to nature. Witty, at times even whimsical, Flight Maps is also a sophisticated and meditative archaeology of Americans' very real and uneasy desire to make nature meaningful in their lives

No one knows the journeys we go through, the doors we open, and the strength it takes to walk through those doors to close them behind you. It could take years, or it could take days. Our journeys are not always chosen by us, they can either make you or break you, but it will taint you.It could take longer when you feel you are alone, but you must never give up no matter how hard it seems. There have been times I just wanted to sleep and not wait up, but God wouldn't let me.No doubt, there are fallen angels in the world. There are also good angels in this world! You just have to recognize them and accept them. Let go, this will make you stronger and eventually move you forward. You are important too. You can overcome this! And now, for the grandkids, nieces and nephews, well, that's a whole other story! Bits & Pieces II (Reality)! What a mess!
