Laura Duffy has been through some tough stuff---moving to a new
state, starting her junior year in a new school, fights, kidnapping
attempts, accusations, even explosions; but she s always had her
friends to fall back on---at least until now. When old enemies
start new trouble, Laura finds herself feeling very alone with a
God who seems to be asking her to choose between faithfulness and
friendship. And if that weren t hard enough, Laura is confronted
with the possibility that her new friends aren t really friends at
all. Join Laura as she tries to find the truth behind unfounded
lies, restore old relationships, and figure out who s on her side."

Based on real people and events, Rivet Boy blends fact and fiction
to tell the story of one boy's role in the building of the iconic
Forth Rail Bridge-Scotland's greatest man-made wonder-in 1889. When
12-year-old John Nicol gets a job at the Forth Bridge construction
site, he knows it's dangerous. Four boys have already fallen from
the bridge into the Forth below. But John has no choice-with his
father gone, he must provide an income for his family-even if he is
terrified of heights. John finds comfort in the new Carnegie
library, his friend Cora and his squirrel companion, Rusty. But
when he is sent to work in Cain Murdoch's Rivet Gang, John must
find the courage to climb, to face his fears, and to stand up to
his evil boss.
The Joy! Kids Bible series is based on 1 Thessalonians 5:16.
Rejoice always. God’s children should ALWAYS live Joy-filled lives.
Each story is accompanied by a prayer to help children connect with
God; as well as a Christian value that reinforces the story.

Te veel jongmense glo die leuen dat jy eers klaar moet wees met
skool en ’n graad moet hê voor jy ’n verskil
kan maak. Neem nou deel aan Jesus se rewolusie van hoop. Dis nou die
tyd om al die groot vrae te vra, belangrike geloofsgewoontes aan te
leer, die misterie van God se teenwoordigheid op nuwe plekke raak te
sien en jou eie roeping te ontdek. Jesus het nie vir kinders
gesê word groot nie, Hy het vir grootmense gesê word klein.
Nou is dit jou beurt. Eendag is te ver.
The essays in this volume offer a groundbreaking comparative
analysis of religious education, and state policies towards
religious education, in seven different countries and in the
European Union as a whole. They pose a challenging and crucial
question: can religious education effect positive civic change and
foster solidarity across different ethnic and religious
communities? In many traditional societies and increasingly in
secular European societies, our place in creation, the meaning of
good and evil, and the definition of the good life, virtue, and
moral action, are all addressed primarily in religious terms.
Despite the promise of the Enlightenment and of the
nineteenth-century ideology of progress, it seems impossible to
come to grips with these issues without recourse to religious
language, traditions, and frames of reference. Unsurprisingly,
countries approach religious education in dramatically different
ways, in keeping with their respective understandings of their own
religious traditions and the relative saliency of different
ethno-religious groups within the polity. Religious Education and
the Challenge of Pluralism addresses a pervasive problem: in most
cases, it is impossible to provide a framework of meaning, let
alone religious meaning, without at the same time invoking language
of community and belonging, or of borders and otherness. This
volume offers in-depth analysis of such pluralistic countries as
Bulgaria, Israel, Malaysia, and Turkey, as well as Cyprus-a country
split along lines of ethno-religious difference. The contributors
also examine the connection between religious education and the
terms of citizenship in the EU, France, and the USA, illuminating
the challenges facing us as we seek to educate our citizenry in an
age of religious resurgence and global politics.
