There has been a strange event in the world. Millions of people have disappeared. There have been wrecks on the highway, people disappearing right out thin air, and parents waking up missing their children. Where'd Everybody Go? This book is about an event Christians call the Rapture, and the coming wrath God will pour out on humanity after it. It will also give the reader, regardless if read before or after the Rapture, plans to build on to prepare for life before and during the Great Tribulation, when a man called the antichrist will rise to power and rule the earth.This book is for Christians, agnostics, atheists, or anyone else who has ever wondered about the end of the world as we know it. With continued uprisings and political uncertainty in the Middle East, do not let another day go by without getting prepared. The time is drawing near.David R. Wells is neither a preacher nor an educated theologian. He is a committed Christian who seeks only the plain truth in Scripture and nothing else. He and his much-better half, Marlo, live in rural America, continually seeking God's will for their lives and the lives of their four children.

The Bush administration was remarkably successful in dominating the debate over why we had to go to war with Iraq, but it would soon be faced with the more daunting task of winning the monumental rhetorical struggle over how to write the script of the Iraq War endgame. We examine the twists and turns of the discursive battle over the war's denouement as it played out against the backdrop of the war on terror, and we conclude that while Bush failed to win the argument that Iraq was one with our fight against terrorism, his underlying worldview that we must confront terrorist evil through global military engagement remains an important component of Obama adminstration rhetoric.

First published in 1998, this volume explores the connections between the rises in consumerism and the number of married women in paid work in light of the centrality of shopping and consumerism to the modern world. David R. Wells argues for women's incomplete gains from consumerism through an analysis of married women's employment, the structure of capitalism and the contradictory requirements of consumerism, the homemaker ideal and gender identity. Through this, Wells demonstrates how the gendered expectations of consumerism became motivating factors for women to join the workforce, resulting in higher standards of living and greater marital power.
