In Lost, medical historian Shannon Withycombe weaves together women’s personal writings and doctors’ publications from the 1820s through the 1910s to investigate the transformative changes in how Americans conceptualized pregnancy, understood miscarriage, and interpreted fetal tissue over the course of the 19th century. Withycombe’s pathbreaking research reveals how Americans construed, and continue to understand, miscarriage within a context of reproductive desires, expectations, and abilities.

If you've ever wondered why the Bible is full of so many apparent contradictions, you're not alone. If you're afraid you might betray the God of the Bible if you question centuries-old traditions, you won't, as long as you let scripture speak for itself. To that end, Fish Tales (From the Belly of the Whale) plunges you headlong into an unrelenting search for biblical truth that will forever change how you think about the word of God.

This is the story of the resurrection of Jesus Christ the Son of God the Messiah. As the angel said to Mary and the other women, "He is not here. For he has risen as he said. Come see the place where the Lord lay." Many have the resurrection power while some do not have a clue about what it is or how they can get it. The Bible tells us what we are in Christ Jesus the Lord. We are no more outcasts but now are we the sons of God. Not children only born of flesh and blood but children born of the spirit of God.

Dio è nostro Padre, Creatore del cielo, della Terra e dell’intero Universo. Nostro Padre è onnipotente. Non può essere meglio. Non possiamo avere un Padre migliore. Siamo fortunati. Dio abita in noi! Siamo portatori di Dio! Però! Dio non è Padre soltanto dei cristiani, ma di tutti gli uomini della Terra. Vero! Verissimo! Tutti siamo figli di Dio, ma non tutti siamo consapevoli di questa bella notizia! Se avessimo la consapevolezza come un granello di senape, che è piccolissimo come dice il Vangelo, potremmo spostare le montagne.

My adventure started one day as I considered writing a fiction story using Heaven as the main stage. You know - bright lights, angels, and wonderful people living in pleasant villages. That was the beginning of an adventure that would be 60 pages of scribbled wonder. So I could write about Heaven, I decided to ask God to allow me to visit there. Putting it mildly, going to Heaven would steal away my breath. Since the visit in 1991 my thinking and outlook on life changed me. I was already a Christian - but this was different.

Il popolo Ebreo era disperso in tutto il mondo, vivendo in diaspora. E per tutti questi anni, vivendo nelle terre straniere tra le culture e le religioni diverse, non ha perso la fede, la propria cultura e le tradizioni. 1878 anni sono tanti per dimenticare l`appartenenza nazionale. Gli Ebrei no! Non vi sembra una cosa eccezionale?

Fred writes that this book is not about my life but seeing the world for a time through my eyes. It is about the prism through which the light divides. A point of view.

Losing a pet is an experience that leaves a gaping hole in our hearts. I find that just talking about a rainbow bridge doesn't really help. It is a beautiful thought, but I am a Bible-believing Christian, so that led me to look up all references to rainbow in the Bible. Although there is no mention of a "rainbow bridge," what I found was that the rainbow covenant God made with Noah wasn't just to mankind but to every living creature that was with him! It was a covenant between God and all of his creation! God made an eternal, binding promise to animals!
