The Rock, the Road, and the Rabbi Bible Study Guide: Come to the Land Where It All Began
By Kathie Lee Gifford. 2018
Kathie Lee Gifford always believed the Bible held the answers to every question a person could ask. Her problem was: how…
could she be sure of what the Bible was really saying when we are so separated from the ancient Jewish culture in which it was written? As a lifelong student of Scripture, Kathie Lee Gifford has always desired a deeper understanding of God&’s Word and a deeper knowledge of God Himself. But it wasn&’t until she began studying the biblical texts in their original Hebrew and Greek—along with actually hiking the ancient paths of Israel—that she found the fulfillment of those desires. In this six-session video study (DVD/video streaming sold separately), Kathie Lee invites you to join her as she visits sites in Israel that have impacted her life. As she shares her story, Rabbi Jason Sobel, a messianic Jewish rabbi who was trained in the ancient rabbinical way, provides fascinating background details into the language, culture and heritage that make the story of the New Testament come alive. Kathie Lee and Rabbi Sobel will take you and your group beyond the typical "Sunday school" teaching to examine the original texts of the Bible. Now you can walk with Kathie on a journey through the spiritual foundations of her faith: The Rock (Jesus Christ): Hear directly from Kathie about her life-changing and ever-deepening connection with Jesus, the Lover of her soul. The Road (Israel): Explore dozens of ancient landmarks and historical sites from Israel, the promised land of God&’s covenant. The Rabbi (God&’s Word): Go beyond a Sunday-school approach to the Bible by digging into the original languages and deeper meanings of the Holy Scriptures. Come! Explore the land of Israel and mine the treasures of God's Word. There is so much more! Sessions include: Bethlehem: Where It All Began Nazareth: The Early Years Capernaum: Ministry Headquarters Galilee: Ministry Grounds Mount of Olives: The Triumphal Entry Jerusalem: Crucifixion and Resurrection Designed for use with The Rock, the Road, and the Rabbi Video Study (9780310095033), sold separately.

Serving on the big ships: life on the liners
By William H Miller. 2024
"The 1950s to early 1980s was the last period in which passengers sailed simply to get somewhere, before the liners…
turned to cruising and airlines became the only feasible means of travelling long distances. It was a golden age of ocean travel, even though the signs of inevitable decline were in evidence all around. For those who worked on the ships, whether stewards or captains or anyone in between, looking back conjures a range of emotions and stories as diverse as the ports to which they sailed. Recorded here are memories of sailing on the North Atlantic with Cunard & Holland-America, with the Italian Line in the Mediterranean, with Royal Mail Lines to South America, with Union-Castle to Africa, and with P&O-Orient to Australia and the Far East. These stories are the memories of the people who manned the ships, served on them, and through their service, grew to love them." -- Provided by publisher

Dining Out: First Dates, Defiant Nights, and Last Call Disco Fries at America's Gay Restaurants
By Erik Piepenburg. 2025
From a New York Times journalist, a culinary tour of gay restaurants—their history, and how they evolved as a space…
of safety and celebration for the LGBTQ+ community—full of joy, sex, sorrow, activism, and nostalgia.Dining Out explores how gay people came of age, came out, and fought for their rights not just in gay bars or the streets, but in restaurants. From cruisy urban cafeterias of the 1920s to mom-and-pop diners that fed the Stonewall generation to the intersectional hotspots of the early 21st century. Using archival material, original reporting and interviews, and first-person accounts, Erik Piepenburg explores how LGBTQ restaurants shaped and continue to shape generations of gay Americans. Through the eyes of a reporter and the stomach of a hungry gay man, Dining Out examines the rise, impact and legacies of the nation's gay restaurants past, present, and future, connecting meals with memories. Hamburger Mary&’s, Florent, a suburban Denny&’s queered by kids: Piepenburg explores how these and many other gay restaurants, coffee shops, diners, and unconventional eateries have charted queer placemaking and changed the modern LGBTQ civil rights movement for the better.
Bird Milk & Mosquito Bones: A Memoir
By Priyanka Mattoo. 2024
From a wry, insightful, and very funny new voice, here is one woman&’s search for home, from Kashmir to England…
to Saudi Arabia to Michigan to Rome and, finally, to Los Angeles—standalone essays that together form a sweeping portrait of a peripatetic life."I would follow Priyanka Mattoo to the ends of the earth, because she would know what to eat there, and how to make a friend, and then sit me down and tell me a story." —Emma StraubPriyanka Mattoo was born into a wooden house in the Himalayas, as were most of her ancestors. In 1989, however, mounting violence in the region forced Mattoo&’s community to flee. The home into which her family poured their dreams was reduced to a pile of rubble.Mattoo never moved back to her beloved Kashmir—because it no longer existed. She and her family just kept packing and unpacking and moving on. In forty years, Mattoo accumulated thirty-two different addresses, and she chronicles her nomadic existence with wit, wisdom, and an inimitable eye for light within the darkest moments. She takes us from her grandparents&’ sprawling home in Srinagar, where her boisterous aunties raced through the halls, to Saudi Arabia, where friendships were gained and lost behind the sandstone walls of a foreigners&’ compound. We witness her courtship with a nice Jewish boy, now her husband, and her efforts to replicate her mother&’s rogan josh recipe via Zoom. And we are with her as she settles into her unlikely new homeland, Los Angeles, where she sets off on what is perhaps her most meaningful journey: that of becoming a writer.Through these astonishingly poignant and often laugh-out loud essays, Mattoo has given us an openhearted, frank, revealing glimpse into a journey of almost constant motion, as well as a journey of self-discovery.
