A personal crusade against terror
Reviewed by Nikki Pringle for Reader Views (8/08) The year is 1973. Aaron Green, a recent college graduate who loved photography, was given a Lecia 35 mm camera by his father David, and money for a trip to Israel by his mother Rebecca. On his twentieth birthday, which was also the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, he visited Solomon's Quarry in Jerusalem. Aaron was surrounded by an Arab patrol ...

A Wise Guide to Life's Pilgrimage that Starts with Actually Celebrating the Mess!
I enjoyed this book myself, then one of our guest writers at our online magazine, [...], Gail Katz, wrote her own recommendation of Rabbi Kula's book. Gail points out that, as a Jewish woman, this book touched her -- but I can also recommend this to a broader audience, as well. The entire concept of the book is fresh and appealing because -- let's be honest -- most of us do not lead ...

Excellent
I used to say that it was pointless to try to study the Bible without Hebrew - that it was impossible to "feel" the text, to get the humor, the irony, the poetry. Not anymore. This is a must for any student of the Bible, as it captures the liveliness and strangeness of the original and expose it as the allusive, alliterative, jabberwocky text that it is. Hebrew is best, but this is, finally, ...
Gospel according to Moses, The: What My Jewish Friends Taught Me about Jesus

Brazos Press, 2003
A book for every Christian's bookshelf
This was a great read. Highly recommended. The book reads smoothly, uses comfortable language, and flows in a logical way. Dickson employs several mini-stories throughout the book to introduce and illustrate the subject matter of that chapter. Dickson touches an area of Christianity which is desperately needed. We embrace so much of our faith without having any knowledge of its roots ...

Intriguing
I'd been hearing that Moses Millers' writing style represented a change from predictable, boring and humdrum, to exciting, suspenseful and memorable. I hesitated somewhat, but here I am admitting, ` Nan : The Trifling Times of Nathan Jones' is intensely suspenseful and a read that readers will definitely enjoy. Nathan Jones, an orphan, is being hunted by the people who corrupted his ...

The Midwife's Song: A Story of Moses' Birth

Engaging from the first page
A wonderfully written and fascinating tale of the midwives Puah and Shiphrah. Brenda Ray brought the characters to life unfolding a story filled with romance, inspiration and gripping drama. A very enjoyable book; I was a bit sad for it to end. I found The Midwife's Song to be a more compelling read than The Red Tent.
The Power Broker: Robert Moses And The Fall Of New York (Part 1)

Power Reveals
Robert Caro's THE POWER BROKER is a lession in the use of power in the life and career of Robert Moses, and the consequent effects upon the people and substructure of New York City. Moses is such a disgusting figure, such a tyrant, that I literally found myself shaking at points. The press was in his pocket, elitest and racist, Moses painted himself as the selfless public servant. In reality, he ...

A wonderful God
This book is beautiful and I want to express the loving, forgiving beautiful God in this book. He forsees the future and warns us about the time coming near. We have but two choices to make and that is restore ourselves to him, or stay as we are in the dark side. I don't believe the year 2000 has come. History tells me that our timing is mis-calculated and we still have little time left. ...

Ingenious.
I would never have guessed that German dudes in the 1700's could be so flippin' funny. Or that a play so silly could be so smart. It is tremendously clever. I gotta read it again to see what I missed the first time. I can't wait to see what Moses writes next!

I hail thee, Great White Shark!
For surviving for 400 million years. For refusing to submit yourself to mankind's aquariums and corporate SeaWorlds. For never allowing your secrets of mating or birth to become known to the prying eyes of man. For not even leaving a skeleton for science to attempt to examine. For being the Master of the Seas, without even using mechanical aids to assist you, like we, the Humans, the ...

Booklocker, 2007
God, are you there? If so, are you laughing as hard as me?
The author is clearly angry at society. He rips on the Church, politics, self-help groups, corporations, and even God! Judging by how screwed up the planet is can you blame him? This is a fun read following a guy's journey through Heaven and back. But come on, Mexicans sneaking into Heaven! That alone makes this story funny beyond belief. It's like South Park on steroids. If you are extremely ...

Christmas shopping done!
I know what I'll be putting under the tree for my niece and nephew this year. Thanks to Marty Nystrom (As the Deer) for this wonderful book! Parents should read this to their children along with "The Beginner's Bible." The stories come alive in exciting ways with poems like "The Invasion of the Swamp Creatures" (the plague of frogs in Egypt) and "Grandpa is Not a Gorilla." This book is so much ...

He Just Gets Better!
After reading the first book "The Trifling Times of Nathan Jones" I instantly became a fan of this author, as many other readers have. We eagerly awaited this second installment title: "Nan: The Game of Trife" wondering if Mr. Miller had that special something that will keep us begging for more. Well the jury is now out and I am proud to report that author Moses Miller has definitely gained the ...

This is a great book for anyone thinking of joining the industry and provides real life examples of pitfalls that other artists have endured over time.5 stars!

What a Great Idea!!
This book and CD set are the perfect combination for those who are new to the world of opera and not fluent in foreign language. Better than just a synopsis, the libretto in English lets you read every word so you won't miss the humor or pathos. As a homeschooling mom, I really appreciated this set as a teaching tool. I hope to increase my collection of The Black Dog Opera Library series.

Good Thinking
Brother Greg believes O.J. is innocent. That is hard to believe, and there is some paranoia with his thinking. Conspiracy theories make for good fiction, but some of it is enlightening and believable. Mr. Gregory is a great man, and has a lot of knowledge. He is very smart. He is very funny, but he is also obsessed. If he calms down, he would do better. I love him. He is trying so hard to ...
