When God Has a Way, No Other Way Works

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Alford, Amy, PUBLISHER: Xulon Press, Book Description This is the loving, true story about a young woman named Amy and her adopted grandmother, Sandy, sharing what the Bible teaches about living the Christian life. This unexpected relationship bound two women from different generations on the same journey in life. One woman was three steps ahead of the other-older and wiser. The other one was younger and not as wise as she once thought. At first, Amy was simply hoping a little bit of what Sandy had would rub off on her. Over time, she realized that God had more in mind. He wanted to use Sandy to bring her closer to Him than ever before. Amy Alford has photographed some of the world's most powerful and respected leaders, including President George Bush, Jr. and his wife Laura, as well as former President George Bush, Sr., Oprah Winfrey, Benjamin Netanyahu, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson and Bill Cosby. However, nothing excites her more than capturing the special moments of children and families. Her mentor, Sandy Edmonson (pictured), has taught a Bible Study at Grace Bible Church in Dallas for 45 years. Amy enjoys her involvement in door-to-door ministry in foreign countries, prison ministry, Bible Study and her involvement in Fellowship Bible Church.

The Swiss, the Gold and the Dead: How Swiss Bankers Helped

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ziegler, Jean / Zeigler, Jean / Willen, Drenka, PUBLISHER: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), Recent startling revelations that Switzerland helped to bankroll Nazi Germany's war effort, and Swiss intransigence in the face of redress claims by Holocaust survivors, have shaken Switerland's international reputation. In this uncompromising account, leading Swiss sociologist Jean Ziegler closely examines the shady relationship between Swiss bankers and Nazi Germany. Based on the records of the German Armaments Ministry and other official documents, The Swiss, the Gold, and the Dead shows how Switzerland's leading financial institutions provided Hittler with the foreign exchange essential to his war effort-laundering gold looted from the banks of occupied Europe and from the bodies of concentration camp victims; granting sizable loans; and supplying Germany's war economy with weapons, ammunition, and precision instruments. In returen, Switzerland was spared the devastation that befell the rest of Europe. Ziegler argues forcefully and authoritatively that without Swiss complicity the war in Europe would have ended earlier, sparing hundreds of thousands of lives. Drawing on more than thirty years of experience in Switzerland's domestic politic and international diplomacy, Professor Ziegler has made an important contribution to this highly controversial and emotional subject.
