It is said that Jaroslav Jan Pelikan, a leading scholar in the history of Christianity and Sterling Prof. Everett of history at Yale University, on his deathbed confessed this:If Christ has not risen from the dead, nothing else matters.If Christ has risen from the dead, nothing else matters.I came across this quote in my research for the ""Apologetics Together"" courses that I offer on social media and was immediately awed at its profound implications. Indeed, if Jesus has not risen, we must agree with Saint Paul that the world remains in their sins and are eternally lost. However, since Jesus has risen, those who have placed their trust in him are assured of salvation and eternal life. This book looks at the prophecies and fulfillment in the Scriptures which assure us that he who died on the cross at Calvary rose again on the third day for our justification.

The objective of Cultural Inclusion is to demonstrate that persons with disabilities have made (and continue to make) vital contributions to Jamaican culture. The central argument, therefore, that persons with disabilities have made a vital contribution to Jamaican culture fills a critical gap in disability studies, ethnomusicology, and other scholarly research programmes.A solid piece of work that represents a major scholarly achievement, Cultural Inclusion should be a starting point for other researchers to look at areas from the entertainment industry where persons with disabilities have made significant contributions. Importantly also, this pioneering work will provide real data and research analysis for policy makers and decision makers at both the public and private level.Cultural Inclusion will appeal to a diverse audience, as it provides short and lively biographies both known and less well-known Jamaican musicians.

Risky Chances, the eighth installment of The Beadle Files, opens with LC Beadle in Buffalo meeting with a supposed informant, but soon enough determines that he's been snookered. A pair of ruffians warn him that Cody Fralick will very shortly be greeted by the Grim Reaper, then they proceed to beat the journalist until he is smothered into unconsciousness. The narrative is crisp and fast-paced, set mostly in Buffalo, New York--there are twists and turns that take the reader on a train trip from Colorado to the Queen City. A pair of mysterious female characters bring vivid memories from the past that in different ways rattle both Avis Lahay and Tatiyana Baglio. Meanwhile Jack Whistler continues to be the sly and crafty master of information, even as he is visited by shadowy wheelers and dealers. Ziggy Alder and Sara Mulder continue their adventurous escapades on the trail to Creede, where he hopes to find a kinsman's grave, as well as yearns to meet anyone who knew him who could tell some Uncle Whitey stories. Ziggy chatters constantly, regaling Sara with tall tales from his past, which are so entertaining that she seems to always want to hear another one.
