Wendy S. Enelow, Louise M. Kursmark

Jist Publishing, 2003

Surprisingly valuable - more than a list of resumes!
I really like the format and targeted focus of this book. It's a big 8 1/2 by 11 book - easy on the eyes. The first 62 pages gives good solid advice on the HOW of resume writing. It includes strategies for job search, gathering information, and examples of formatting styles. The rest of the book gives many examples of resumes and analyzes what the resume is designed to emphasize and why. If ...

Backwards: Returning to Our Source for Answers

8 reviews
Nanci L. Danison

A.P. Lee & Co., 2007

At last, a book that explains it step by step
Have you ever read a book you bought thinking you'd get some spiritual structure, some explanation of just how to evolve through its pages, only to discover it talked in circles taking you nowhere? Well, throw those old books away, because "Backwards: Returning to Our Source for Answers" will not spin a sugary tale, then lead to frustration like all those others; it will tell you where you're ...

Restoration: Returning the Torah of God to the Disciples of Jesus

14 reviews
D. Thomas Lancaster

First Fruits of Zion, 2005

The Beauty of the Messiah
This book is, obviously, written in support of a very controversial view, which you may or may not agree with. Even if you disagree, however, you will find a lot of meaningful insights in here that are simply not taught in traditional Christianity. My favorite example is the biblical festivals, which are outlined in this book. It still blows my mind what a deep connection there is between ...

Returning to Earth: A Novel

21 reviews
Jim Harrison

Grove Press, 2007

The gift of facing death with grace and courage
For the first part of the book I would have said it was about a man trying to tell his life story while his brain and body were dealing with the ravages of ALS. Then I thought the book was about supporting death with dignity and the differences in cultural responses to death. Then I was sort of confused because it looked like the book was becoming a collection of short stories about people who ...

Unfinished Business: Returning the Ministry to the People of God

8 reviews
Greg Ogden

Zondervan, 2003

Read this book!
This book challenges the traditional system of the modern Church movement. It makes the reader reflect on the developmental history of the church and really what the body of Christ, the Church, should look like. Beware, it will challenge everything that you have been brought up to believe as functional in "ministry." It will challenge your concept of "ministry." If you are a believer in the ...

The Returning King: A Guide to the Book of Revelation

5 reviews
Vern S. Poythress

P & R Publishing, 2000

The Book of Revelation Made Slightly Less Difficult
A few years ago I heard a speaker who began his talk by saying that he loved the book of Revelation because it was so simple and clear and it so neatly summed up the teaching of the Bible. I laughed because everyone knows that the book of Revelation is anything but simple and clear. He said he was serious and he mentioned that he had studied Revelation under Vern Poythress at Westminster ...

Returning to Holiness

Gregory R. Frizzell, Dr Gregory R Frizzell, ...

Master Design, 2000

Clarion Call to a Holiness and Consecration
In 2004 our church used "Returning to Holiness" as a devotional during a forty-day period of prayer and fasting. The experience was powerful for our congregation and the book aided in challenging our church members to spiritual cleansing and consecration. Frizzell has written the book primarily to be used for church-wide times of seeking God but it would also be beneficial to individuals. ...

Returning to the Essential: Selected Writings of Jean Bies (Perennial Philosophy Series)

1 review
Jean Bies

World Wisdom, 2004

The return to the essential consists essentially to a return to Unity
In this book which includes essays written over almost half a century, Deborah Weiss-Duthilh introduces the reader to a French traditionalist author so far largely unknown in the English-speaking world. Biýs was born in Bordeaux in 1933, in the Southwestern part of France, a region still permeated with the memory of the Occitania civilization and of Catharism. The repository of a genuine esoteric ...

Returning: A Spiritual Journey

2 reviews
Dan Wakefield

Beacon Press, 1997

Spiritual comet
I started reading this book while Comet Hale-Bopp was at its brightest. I quickly came to understand that journalist/novelist Dan Wakefield's journey was the spiritual version of a comet. He begins with a fairly typical midwest Christianity, then moves to agnosticism, then moves to atheism, then moves to attending a Unitarian church, within which he moves back into Christianity. His journey, ...

SOLDIER FROM THE WARS RETURNING (Pen & Sword Military Classics)
Charles Carrington

Pen and Sword, 2006

Soldier from the Wars Returning is one of the truest, most profound and readable personal accounts of the Great War. The author waited nearly fifty years before writing it, and the perspective of history enhances its value. He writes only of the battles in which he participated (including the Somme and Passchendaele), though his comments on affairs beyond his knowledge at the time, through later study and reflection, are pungent and ...

Returning to Silence (Shambhala Dragon Editions)

5 reviews
Dainin Katagiri

Shambhala, 1988

A book to be read and re-read
The silence of the title is our essential core of being. In these essays, Dainin Katagiri Roshi talks about how to connect with this core, and to let it penetrate and resound through the moments of our lives. Katagiri Roshi was a sucessor of Shunryu Suzuki (Zen Mind Beginner's Mind) and like the later, he is at once simple and deep. These talks are not discourses, but "live words," spoken ...
