In the hustle and bustle of today's busy world, sometimes it's hard enough to hear yourself think, much less take a minute to stop and listen for the voice of God. But learning to recognize God's voice and the many ways in which He speaks is vital for following His plan. In How to Hear from God , Joyce Meyer shows readers that God reaches out to people every day, seeking a partnership with them to offer guidance and love. She reveals the ways in which God delivers His word and the benefits of asking God for the sensitivity to hear His voice. Joyce asks the question, "Are you listening?" and shares how to do just that. |

This book is awful! Did you know that "awful" first originated as a compliment? How about the fact that it was perfectly fine for someone to defecate in their living room? Or that at one time a bully was actually a sweetheart? You may think that these things sound outlandish, but hundreds of years ago, the words "awful," "defecate," and "bully" meant something entirely different than what we know today. The Unexpected Evolution of Language reveals the origins of 208 everyday terms and the interesting stories behind their shift in meaning. Arranged in alphabetical order, you will enjoy uncovering the backstories to terms like: • Awful - worthy of respect or fear; inspiring awe • Bimbo - slang for a stupid, inconsequential man • Defecate - to purify; cleanse • Invest - to clothe; to dress • Nice - foolish; stupid • Relay - hunting term meaning fresh pack of hounds From "aftermath" and "sophisticated" to "empty" and "prestige," you will aboslutely love seeing just what kind of damage time has done to the English language. |

The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve by G. Edward Griffin Summary In the early 20th century, a clandestine meeting took place on Jekyll Island, a small resort island off the coast of Georgia, that would forever change the financial landscape of the United States. This meeting, shrouded in secrecy and mystery, brought together some of the most powerful bankers and financial minds of the time. It was here that the blueprint for the Federal Reserve System was drawn up, a pivotal moment that author G. Edward Griffin explores in The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve. This book delves into the origins, purposes, and implications of the Federal Reserve, offering a critical examination of its role in the American economy. Griffin begins by setting the historical context for the establishment of the Federal Reserve. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the United States was experiencing significant economic upheaval. Bank runs, financial panics, and recessions were not uncommon, creating a climate of uncertainty and fear. The Panic of 1907 was particularly severe, exposing the vulnerabilities of the existing banking system and prompting calls for reform. It was against this backdrop that the secret meeting on Jekyll Island took place, spearheaded by Senator Nelson Aldrich, a key figure in financial reform, and attended by representatives from major banking institutions such as J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller, and Kuhn, Loeb & Co. The purpose of the meeting was to draft a plan for a central banking system that would stabilize the economy and prevent future financial crises. However, Griffin argues that the motivations behind the Federal Reserve's creation were not purely altruistic. Instead, he suggests that it was designed to serve the interests of the banking elite, consolidating their power and influence over the nation's financial system. By examining the personalities and interests involved, Griffin paints a picture of a system engineered to benefit a select few at the expense of the broader public. |
