They have been entrusted with Transformation Church from the founding pastor, Bishop Gary McIntosh, in 2015, after fifteen years of operation.” He is a first-time author, and his mission is to “ represent God to the lost and found for transformation in Christ.“ About the book “Michael Todd is the lead pastor of Transformation Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, alongside his wife, Natalie. I still had the notes I took two years ago, and I wanted to see my reactions now and exercise my discernment skills. But, when I saw it was available for review, I got curious. I had no intention of reading his first book, Relationship Goals: How to win at Dating, Marriage, and Sex. I stopped listening to him and scraped all his teachings or quotes from my blog. Last year, however, through various circumstances, God opened my eyes, and I realized Todd did not handle the Word of God correctly. His sermons elevated me and tickled my ears, so I binged-watched them and believe everything he said. What I loved most about him-though I didn’t know it then, was Todd’s uncanny ability to make everything about us. Like many others, I discovered Michael Todd through his sermon series, “Relationship Goals.” I instantly like Todd he was funny, cool, relatable, and practical.

Hollywood producers Lili and Richard Zanuck quickly scooped up the rights for $50,000 and brought it to the silver screen starring Morgan Freeman, who played in the Broadway production, and Jessica Tandy. In no time its short run was extended, and then moved to Broadway where it ran for three years! His play almost instantly took off (it won a Pulitzer Prize in 1988) when it opened to a 79-seat off-Broadway theater.

McCann has described his work as “a hybrid novel with invention at its core, a work of story-telling which…weaves together elements of speculation, memory, fact and imagination.” His book arose from two stories he heard in 2015 about the killing of 10-year-old Abir, daughter of Bassam Aramin, in 2007 by an Israeli soldier and the killing of 13-year-old Smadar, daughter of Rami Elhanan, in 1997 by a Palestinian suicide bomber. In this novel he writes about the shared experiences of two individuals, an Israeli and a Palestinian. He doesn’t write about what he knows but what he wants to learn about through his writing. McCann is a writer who has written about gypsies and other oppressed people and is talented at entering worlds that are new to him. While she makes valid general points about prevailing narratives in Western representations of Palestinians, McCann’s novel does not fall into that disreputable tradition. It ascribes to the novel motives that are simply absent from the text. Susan Abulhawa, one of the most celebrated contemporary Palestinian novelists, has written a devastating review of Colum McCann’s new novel “Apeirogon.” As an appreciative reader of McCann’s new novel, I find her review unfair. The matter of succession is hotly contested within the family, particularly during the prolonged absence of Oberon, and loyalties were constantly shifting amongst the undecided.Ĭorwin has dark hair and green eyes His colors are black and silver (alternately gray), and his symbol is a silver rose. Corwin's eldest brother, Benedict, has made it clear that he absolutely does not want the throne and prefers to be General of the Armies of Amber, although because of Benedict's supreme prowess in all manner of combat, he would be completely unchallenged if he wanted the throne. All other older siblings are either excluded on other technicalities or dead. His older brother Eric, while born to the same mother, is technically a bastard because at that time Oberon and Faiella were unmarried. In the first book of the series ( Nine Princes in Amber), Corwin is identified as the eldest heir to the throne who has a legitimate claim. Within the novels, much of the plot action centers around Corwin and his family as they plot against one another conspiring to become the King of Amber. He is the second son of Oberon and Faiella, and the father or Merlin. Corwin, a Prince of Amber, is the main character in the first five books of Roger Zelazny's Chronicles of Amber.

Then add in the play’s compassionate understanding of the powerlessness of women in that time and place - Asch is a young married man, in a very early work, writing the most astonishing love story between two women - and it makes a pretty compelling play to read and perform. That’s a very hard thing for a man to do, especially in a time of burgeoning anti-Semitism. In 1907, Sholem Asch was brave enough to write that Jews are no different than Catholics or Buddhists or people of any religion, in terms of having people in the tribe who may sell religion for a profit, or who are hypocrites. I read Sholem Asch’s play GOD OF VENGEANCE when I was 23 years old, and I was astonished by it. Literary Associate Miriam Weiner recently spoke with Paula about the reception of GOD OF VENGEANCE in Europe and New York, the role of music in her work and process, and her fruitful five-year creative collaboration with Rebecca Taichman. INDECENT charts the history of an incendiary drama and the path of the artists who risked their careers and lives to perform it. INDECENT is inspired by the true events surrounding the controversial 1923 Broadway debut of Sholem Asch’s GOD OF VENGEANCE - a play seen by some as a seminal work of Jewish culture, and by others as an act of traitorous libel. Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paula Vogel returns to The Vineyard with her new play, INDECENT, co-created with director Rebecca Taichman. Mass arrests and denunciations continued for months until a new Soviet-installed government suppressed all opposition. A new government pledged to re-establish free elections until a large Soviet force invaded, killing more than 2500 Hungarians and forcing 200,000 Hungarians to flee the country. The Hungarian Revolution of 1956 was a spontaneous nationwide revolt following World War II that spread quickly across the destabilizing country. No Stopping Train is the magnum opus and final novel of the late writer Les Plesko, a powerful, swirling novel of memory and violence set during the Hungarian Revolution. |
