    Ever since she was a little girl, Journee Carter wanted to be a preacher, just like her father. She loved listening to his sermons and seeing how his fiery words filled the members of the congregation with joy. She wanted to bring that kind of happiness to people. And when she grew up, that's exactly what she set out to do. Journee knew there was opposition to women in the pulpit--especially single young women. Yet she never expected her very own father to be one of her biggest obstacles. But he wouldn't be her only challenge. There were many others who believed she was doing wrong--and were willing to go to great lengths to stop her. Kingston Lavery is charming, handsome, and a member of New Faith Baptist Church--which, to Journee's excitement, has offered her a permanent position. Kingston is pleased to see Journee there as well. He is drawn to her--and not just for spiritual counsel. Although Kingston is engaged, he decides to pursue the pretty pastor anyway--with a good deal of encouragement from a most unlikely source. Soon, Journee finds herself trapped in a web of deception worthy of the devil himself, putting her reputation and her career at risk. All she ever prayed for was that God keep her strong, her father's support, and one day her own family to love. Was it too much to ask? Or is all this mess simply a test of her faith? She's sure of only one thing: she will not hear the answer by turning a deaf ear to the call on her heart...

    In this revised edition of "I Can See You Naked" - a delightful guide to presentations of all kinds - Ron Hoff begins by dismissing the technique. "Never talk to a naked audience," is his advice. It's too distracting. "I Can See You Naked" is the first book on making presentations that doesn't read like a textbook.

    He explores the queasy relationships between life and art, love and estrangement, and the bane that is American identity drift, with unsparing but compassionate candor.” –Misha Berson, Seattle Times“Margulies’s remarkable gift of building characterization through realistic dialogue is undiminished.

    But more than this, there was gravity. After that, all hell broke loose… In A Universe from Nothing, Krauss revealed how our entire universe could arise from nothing. Now, he reveals what that something—reality—is. And, reality is not what we think or sense—it’s weird, wild, and counterintuitive; it’s hidden beneath everyday experience; and its inner workings seem even stranger than the idea that something can come from nothing. In a landmark, unprecedented work of scientific history, Krauss leads us to the furthest reaches of space and time, to scales so small they are invisible to microscopes, to the birth and rebirth of light, and into the natural forces that govern our existence. His unique blend of rigorous research and engaging storytelling invites us into the lives and minds of the remarkable, creative scientists who have helped to unravel the unexpected fabric of reality—with reason rather than superstition and dogma. Krauss has himself been an active participant in this effort, and he knows many of them well. The Greatest Story challenges us to re-envision ourselves and our place within the universe, as it appears that “God” does play dice with the universe. In the incisive style of his scintillating essays for The New Yorker, Krauss celebrates the greatest intellectual adventure ever undertaken—to understand why we are here in a universe where fact is stranger than fiction.
