A stunning new novel from the two-time Man Booker shortlisted author of The Secret Scripture. Sebastian Barry's latest novel, A Thousand Moons, is now available. Irishman Jack McNulty is a “temporary gentleman”—an Irishman whose commission in the British army in World War II was never permanent. Sitting in his lodgings in Accra, Ghana, in 1957, he’s writing the story of his life with desperate urgency. He cannot take one step further without examining all the extraordinary events that he has seen. A lifetime of war and world travel—as a soldier in World War II, an engineer, a UN observer—has brought him to this point. But the memory that weighs heaviest on his heart is that of the beautiful Mai Kirwan, and their tempestuous, heartbreaking marriage. Mai was once the great beauty of Sligo, a magnetic yet unstable woman who, after sharing a life with Jack, gradually slipped from his grasp. Award-winning author Sebastian Barry’s The Temporary Gentleman is the sixth book in his cycle of separate yet interconnected novels that brilliantly reimagine characters from Barry’s own family....

A powerful new novel about divided loyalties and the realities of war from “master storyteller” (Wall Street Journal) Sebastian Barry, author of Old God's Time In 1914, Willie Dunne, barely eighteen years old, leaves behind Dublin, his family, and the girl he plans to marry in order to enlist in the Allied forces and face the Germans on the Western Front. Once there, he encounters a horror of violence and gore he could not have imagined and sustains his spirit with only the words on the pages from home and the camaraderie of the mud-covered Irish boys who fight and die by his side. Dimly aware of the political tensions that have grown in Ireland in his absence, Willie returns on leave to find a world split and ravaged by forces closer to home. Despite the comfort he finds with his family, he knows he must rejoin his regiment and fight until the end. With grace and power, Sebastian Barry vividly renders Willie’s personal struggle as well as the overwhelming consequences of war....

The Jefferson Bible, or The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth as it is formally titled, was a book constructed by Thomas Jefferson in the latter years of his life by cutting and pasting numerous sections from various Bibles as extractions of the doctrine of Jesus. Jefferson's composition excluded sections of the New Testament containing supernatural aspects as well as perceived misinterpretations he believed had been added by the Four Evangelists. In 1895, the Smithsonian Institution under the leadership of librarian Cyrus Adler purchased the original Jefferson Bible from Jefferson's great-granddaughter Carolina Randolph for $400. A conservation effort commencing in 2009, in partnership with the museum's Political History department, allowed for a public unveiling in an exhibit open from November 11, 2011, through May 28, 2012, at the National Museum of American History....

Throughout history, Christians have expressed their faith through story. They created texts featuring important early Christian figures—like Jesus, Peter, Paul, Mary Magdalene, and Judas—to express their relationships to God and to the world around them. Some of these texts are found in today's New Testament, but there is a wide assortment of other texts that are not included in the Bible. Secret Scriptures Revealed answers, in clear accessible terms, many frequently asked questions about the Christian Apocrypha. It describes and explains the key texts and includes a much-needed discussion of the enduring value of the Christian Apocrypha. This book recognizes that the Apocrypha are fascinating texts, which have much to offer in terms of understanding early Christian communities and the canonical Bible....

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7) That is by far one of the most misquoted and misrepresented scriptures in the whole Bible. I have read this scripture hundreds (possibly even thousands) of times, yet I never truly understood it until I took the time to dissect it. In this book, I will share with you what I discovered as I dug deeper into the secrets of this scripture.The scripture itself is made up of three major words: power, love, and a sound mind. Yes, I know it says God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, too, but we'll talk more about that later. For now I want to focus on the "power words" in this verse. In fact, one day I got the idea to look up the word "power." When I did, I was blown away at its meaning! The New Webster's Dictionary defines power as, "the ability to act or do; strength, influence, talent, command, authority, one who exercises authority, warranty; the product of the multiplication of a number by itself."I believe that this one scripture holds the key to your wellness, financial provision, mental health, success, prosperity, purpose, future, etc. It is chocked full of words that encompass the entire Christian faith. In this book, I will dissect each of the meanings of the word power, and I believe it will change your life. -Sarah WaltersSarah is a "wordsmith" as she examines the definition of words. However, this is not just the work of a master with words, but rather the work of a person of divine revelation. These words have become life to the author. They become the fabric of how she has built her life. They not only define her life, but truly empower her life. It is the story of how one woman lives from the power of the "WORD OF GOD." -Dr. Tommy ReidServing as Bishop of Niagara Covenant Community of Churches Sarah currently works as a journalist. She is a professionally trained vocalist who hasperformed with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Communications from the University of Maryland.
