Her love of God and love for a man led Delia down a path of thrills, chills and unexpected changes. Raised in a small town by a poor Irish farmer and his wife she was knowledgeable of many of life's ups and downs. As the oldest of twelve children she knew what it took to keep a house running and how to care for others. Her mother, a devout Christian, raised them in church and daily referred to the Bible to explain why they should respond to life's problems. Being a Christian she knew in her heart what was Godly and what was not. Her father, a fun loving, whiskey drinking, jig dancing, hard working man, was a believer but not a practitioner. Her well endowed bosom caused her young life to be filled with ridicule from her school age pears. She longed for someone to see her as she was; a caring, God loving young woman with the desire and the ability to make a good wife and mother. Fulfillment of her dreams began to unfold the day she left home with the son of the owner of a traveling carnival. She was in for the "ride" of her life.

Do you hunger to have a deep, personal relationship with God. Do you long to know more of His character? Do you need to find more of His peace, love, and mercy? Do you want more strength to face the challenges and trials of life and emerge victorious? God is so awesome it is impossible to confine Him to mere words. No two people relate the same way to God, and God is fresh in His dealings with each individual. Yet His character is constant and eternal, the same yesterday, today, and forever. We glean foremost from His Word but also by the insights of others, inspired by the Holy Spirit, to discover His Workings in the lives of mankind. These can be beams of light on our own pathway through life. The first part of this book attempts to capture a fragment of Who God is in poetry and verse. The second part is stories from the life of the author and her ancestors which proclaim God in every day living. God is to be in every part and aspect of life, and this book relates stories of life's joys, sorrows, heartrending trials, triumphs, and special times with God, as well as the mundane and the funny happenings of living. There are also poems of God's hand in nature outside the author's backdoor. To proclaim God, you must also live God. This book presents not only His Word but also how His Word can be applied to real-life situations and God's faithfulness throughout generations.

Twenty-two essays, written by top scholars in the fields of early Christianity and Judaism, focus on methodological issues, earliest Christianity in its Judaic setting, Gospel studies, and history and meaning in later Christianity. These essays honor Bruce Chilton, recognizing his seminal contribution to the study of earliest Christianity in its Judaic setting. Chilton’s scholarship has established innovative approaches to reconstructing the life of Jesus, a Jew whose religious ideology developed and therefore must be understood within the Judaism of the first centuries. Following upon Chilton’s approaches and insights, the essays collected here illustrate the centrality of the literatures of early Judaism to the critical exegesis of the New Testament and other writings of early Christianity.

Have you ever asked yourself, "What's the purpose of life?" I want you to know there is a purpose to your life, a beautiful God-given purpose. I want you to know that you're made in the image of the one true God and that you're meant to shine. Would you like to find out how? Would you like to discover the purpose of your life and learn how it is meant to affect the world around you? If you answered "yes," then I'd like to invite you to join me on a journey. It is a journey down a narrow road. On this narrow road we will explore the true message of Jesus, the message of love. We will contemplate how our purpose is connected to His message. We will examine mindsets found within Christianity and hold them up to a mirror of truth. We will forge a path toward thought-life healing. We will conquer barriers that have held us back from our destiny. We will declare victory over those obstacles and embrace true freedom. I pray you will join me on this journey, this pilgrimage toward our God-given purpose, this expedition of love.
