Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This book by Prophet Sampson Amoateng is a prophetic masterpiece and a must read for every believer. In this inspired piece, Prophet Sampson delves into prophetic teaching by drawing parallels between physical garments and it's spiritual connotations purely from scriptural standpoints. He draws distinctions between different types of garments and categorizes them into fine detail for clear comprehension. Prophet Sampson's passion and love for God and the liberation of His saints is exemplified even as he explains how some garments which entrap people spiritually must be put off and replaced with Godly garments. Also, his vision to revolutionize the prophetic across the world is seen as he provides specific prayer points for dealing with any ungodly garment. If you are ready for a prophetic journey into the Word of God and revelation which will propel you to a higher dimension of a triumphant walk in Christ, then this is the perfect book for you.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. What was it that I did to survive? Where did those ideas come from? Where did I find the resolve to enact them? At the time of my release, I had no ready answers beyond that I did what seemed natural and necessary. In looking back, I realize that the peculiarities of my personality helped me to adopt strategies that allowed for the reclamation of my identity and my integrity while in the hands of barbarians. Yet what I did is neither remarkable nor courageous nor beyond the capabilities of any person that finds himself in similar circumstances. What I have come to believe is that there exists in all of us the potential to stand and fight and reclaim.-- William Sampson On Sunday, December 17, 2000, Canadian engineer William Sampson stepped outside his house in Riyadh only to be hauled into a car and beaten by two Saudi men he didn't know. Within an hour, he was incarcerated in one of the city's most notorious jails. Within two months, he was tortured into a confession of responsibility for a wave of car bombings he did not commit. Sometime in that first year, he was sentenced to death in a secret trial. For two and a half years, Sampson was continually subjected to beatings and torture, convinced his death was just around the corner. Inept diplomacy failed him but human rights groups took up his cause and on August 8, 2003, he was finally freed in a controversial prisoner exchange. It wasn't until February 2005 that Sampson's name was officially cleared when a British inquest exonerated him of the crimes. Angry, intelligent, and compelling, Sampson places his personal story within the context of the geopolitics that engineered his fate, and in doing so has crafted a searing expos of Western foreign policy in the Arab Middle East.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. An urgent picture of medical care in our cities, written by an emergency room physician (and co-author of theNew York TimesbestsellerThe Pact) who grew up in the very neighborhood he is now serving "A pull-no-punches look at health care from a seldom-heard sector . . .Living and Dyingisn't a sky-is-falling chronicle. It's a real, gutsy view of a city hospital."-Essence In this book, Dr. Sampson Davis looks at the healthcare crisis in the inner city from a rare perspective: as a doctor who works on the front line of emergency medical care in the community where he grew up, and as a member of that community who has faced the same challenges as the people he treats every day. He also offers invaluable practical advice for those living in such communities, where conditions like asthma, heart disease, stroke, obesity, and AIDS are disproportionately endemic. Dr. Davis's sister, a drug addict, died of AIDS; his brother is now paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair as a result of a bar fight; and he himself did time in juvenile detention-a wake-up call that changed his life. He recounts recognizing a young man who is brought to the E.R. with critical gunshot wounds as someone who was arrested with him when he was a teenager during a robbery gone bad; describes a patient whose case of sickle-cell anemia rouses an ethical dilemma; and explains the difficulty he has convincing his landlord and friend, an older woman, to go to the hospital for much-needed treatment. With empathy and hard-earned wisdom,Living and Dying in Brick Cityis an important resource guide for anyone at risk, anyone close to those at risk, and anyone who cares about the fate of our cities. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. From the New York Times-bestselling authors of THE PACT Drs. Sampson Davis, George Jenkins, and Rameck Hunt discovered early in their friendship that they shared a disturbing trait: as children, they navigated dangerous inner-city life without a father's guidance. In spite of this, they escaped delinquency and crime to form the Pact, dedicated to putting themselves on the road to success. Now, the Three Doctors make a new promise: to set aside their resentment, and rebuild the relationships with their fathers--men they barely recognize. Told in alternating voices between father and son, The Bond explores the hard lessons of growing up without a father and suggests ways to stem the tide of fatherlessness in communities across the country. Honest, brave, and poignant, The Bond is a book for every child and every family.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Golf hero Ben Hogan bore a mystique that still captivates golfers: a silent, almost eerie concentration that intimidated his opponents, a presence any politician or actor would envy, and an ability to hit a ball so squarely it sizzled as it left his club. Hogan won four US Opens in six years, three after a near-fatal automobile accident. His injuries limited him to six tournaments in 1953, but he won five. It was arguably the greatest year ever in the history of professional golf. But in the midst of the acclaim, myth distorted and obscured Ben Hogan. No one knew what drove him to practice until his hands bled, or what private demons built the high walls that surrounded him. Here at last is the Hogan no reader has ever encountered. Sampson draws on interviews with fellow golf legends Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, and Sam Snead to present an in-depth portrait of a man with bullet-proof confidence and single-mindedness, a man who turned the negatives he encountered into a life of glory and achievement. From the poverty of his youth and the suicide of his father to the failure and conflict that stalked him into middle age, Hogan traces an unforgettable portrait of an amazing man.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. By the beloved and wildly popular host of the PBS Kids show Dinosaur Train, here is the book every parent needs: a rousing call to connect our kids to the natural world, a practical parenting guide filled with tips and advice for nature mentoring. The average North American child now spends about seven hours a day staring at screens, with mere minutes engaged in the kind of unstructured play outdoors essential for growth. Yet recent research on child development indicates that experiences in nature are essential for healthy growth. Regular exposure to nature can help relieve stress, depression, and attention deficits. It can reduce bullying, combat obesity, and boost academic scores. Most critical of all, abundant time in natural settings seems to yield long-term benefits in kids' cognitive, emotional, and social development. How to Raise a Wild Child is a timely and engaging antidote, offering teachers, parents, and other caregivers the necessary tools for outdoor education to engender a meaningful, lasting connection between children and the natural world. Distilling the latest research in multiple disciplines, this guide to nature connection reveals how adults can help kids fall in love with nature--enlisting technology as an ally, taking advantage of urban nature, and instilling a sense of place through place-based learning along the way. "In a time when the connection between humans and the rest of nature is most vulnerable, Scott offers parents and teachers a book of encouragement and knowledge, and to children, the priceless gift of wonder."--Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods and The Nature Principle This essential book provides an evidence-based framework for parents and educators: Evidence-Based Benefits: Learn the science behind why time in nature helps relieve stress and attention deficits, reduces bullying, and even boosts academic scores. The Importance of Nature Play: Discover why unstructured time outdoors is a powerful antidote to the seven hours a day kids spend on screens, and how it boosts cognitive and emotional development. Outdoor Activities for Kids: Find practical, actionable tips for making outdoor exploration a part of your family's daily life, whether you live in the suburbs or a city. A New Approach to Environmental Education: Go beyond simple nature study and learn how to instill a deep, lasting sense of place and wonder, turning technology into an ally instead of an enemy.…

Zustand: Very Good. Lament helps us hear God's louder song. When you're in the midst of suffering, you want answers for the unanswerable, resolutions to the unresolvable. You want to tie up pain in a pretty little package and hide it under the bed, taking it out only when you feel strong enough to face it. But grief won't be contained. Grief disobeys. Grief explodes. In one breath, you may be able to say that God's got this and all will be well. In the next, you might descend into fatalism. No pretending. Here, you are raw before God, an open wound. There is a pathway through this suffering. It's not easy, but God will use it to lead you toward healing. This path is called lament. Lament leads us between the Already and the Not Yet. Lament minds the gap between current hopelessness and coming hope. Lament anticipates new creation but also acknowledges the painful reality of now. Lament recognizes the existence of evil and suffering--without any sugarcoating--while simultaneously declaring that suffering will not have the final say. In the midst of your darkest times, you will discover that lament leads you back to a place of hope--not because lamenting does anything magical, but because God sings a louder song than suffering ever could, a song of renewal and restoration.…
