On That Day
“A maddening, essential study in misinformation, jingoism, bad intelligence, and other hallmarks of the recent American past.”—Kirkus (starred review) Anyone who experienced the attacks on September 11 cannot forget the imagery: the smoking, falling towers, the Pentagon smoldering, the Shanksville crash site, the first responders. But there is an invisible story hidden in the wreckage, one that required years of patient investigation and the piecing together of a sequence from many scattered sources. By establishing the most definitive timeline of how that day unfolded, William M. Arkin shows how the US government failed in the face of the unprecedented attack. It is a story of laughable airport security, vulnerable airspace, blind intelligence, poor communications, muddled orders, Pentagon chaos, and presidential isolation. Everything about the emergency procedures of the governments—from White House security to continuity of government to military alerts—went wrong. On That Day is a stunning, nightmare journey through a government reeling in confusion while many civilians performed individual acts of heroism. It is a chilling exposé of government negligence and overreach, and a constitution in crisis.

From public school to homeschool, here's Haven! Haven Jennings is the center of this lighthearted (sometimes laugh out loud) comedy. She is quick-witted, somewhat humorous, and a little bit worldly as she spent a good majority of her growing up years in the "dark side of education," as her homeschool friends would laughingly describe the public-school system. Haven attends an early morning Bible study with her mother and gifted brother Delbert. While Delbert is in the study to become biblically knowledgeable, Haven is in it for the social aspects. And what a social time she has as the Bible study is made up of supremely unique and awkward characters that are perfecting their craft in the art of socializing with other teens. One teen in particular, named Aaron, is new to the study. Haven happens to notice that not only is he nice looking, but he knows Haven's favorite TV family, the Duggars, of which Haven happens to be a fan of epic proportions. Because Haven wants so badly to know about these people, she believes that she can conjure up a friendship that is perfectly within appropriate boundaries with Aaron, as she finds out in the meantime that Aaron happens to be in a courtship with a girl back in his home town. Things become sticky when Haven, who has other guy friends within the Bible study, finds it difficult to have a friendship with Aaron. Something just isn't right about their relationship. In the end, Haven learns that blessing follows obedience, and obedience, while not always the easiest or plainest choice to make, definitely reaps its own rewards. Haven is hoping for the reward of meeting the famous family, and just maybe, she will, as the Lord only knows what is planned to happen On That Day.
For Those of Us Waiting on That Day!
Anyone that has had a loved one go home knows the pain and sorrow that can overwhelm them. The loss of a loved one can send you into a deep abyss of pain and sorrow. Do you wonder where your loved one is? What is he or she doing? What is Heaven like? How do you find comfort in the pain? Where is God when it hurts? This book was written as the author found herself asking the same questions when, while still grieving the loss of her dad, her strong, healthy husband had a sudden heart attack. On November 2, 2011, her husband of thirty-eight years was called home to heaven. Trying to hold on to her faith while reeling from shock and grief, she threw herself into studying Gods Word and holding on to her faith while she tried to seek answers and comfort. Being unable to find a devotional that was specifically for grieving Christians lead her to write her first book. You will find comfort and assurance that you will be reunited with your loved one in the scripturally based devotions as you read what God has laid on her heart. Ann gives you a daily devotional that helps you focus on heaven, Gods sovereignty and everlasting love, eternity, and that glorious day we will be reunited with our loved ones, and help you find comfort and an eternal perspective as you wait on that day.
