We are not talking about Bug-out-bags, but an English Solar Bible Bus is my replacement for a small text Bible. I would never leave my home for more than 24 hours without this thing. English Solar Bible Bus Complete Five Year Series by J. Vernon McGee

I wish I could see the text in one. I am gradually losing my eyesight, and attempts to get glasses have been ... eventful and fruitless. The Lord knows what he is doing with that: I think I understand part of his plan, but ... I am truly frustrated by my inability to carry and be able to read a...

African languages and Creoles have a very different grammar system than Latin and the modern Romance languages. Yes, some of the them have lots and lots of parables, just like Bible parables and Aesop's Fables, and references to those parables are woven into everyday speech. Yes, other...

The newspapers are full discussion of the programs in place that are actually helping reduce what could be worse. Unless we forbid the poor to walk on the sidewalks, they will continue to be mowed down. I guess we could fight to reduce the speed limits, but that is not going to happen. This...

So much good information! Thanks!!!! I cannot pick up the bottles, though: the homeless and "illegal" people need them to survive, and usually get to them first, anyway. God bless them, please! I have never seen anything like the poverty that I see here. What I see is only like what I have seen...

I just very literally said that I was hot. To mean that I am uncomfortable because the weather is hot, would require saying things in a way that makes no sense when translated literally back into English. One option is to use the verb "have" instead of the verb "be" In one language I have...

Masks are mandated where I am. We are supposed to wear them while walking on the street, but I cannot breathe well enough to do that. I walk at least 6 miles most days, and up until recently the heat was deadly. But I always put my mask right on when entering a building or waiting in an outdoor...

Welcome! I am pretty new here, myself. It's nice to meet you.

Does it matter, when the need is so great for the church to step up and start LOVING women and already-born children? Is the church the group most suited to focus on the medical issues? Or are we called to focus our resources elsewhere? The courts and the church need to FIRST focus on the...

I used to believe church members that said women and mothers were expendable to save babies and for other reasons. It was the same message that the courts gave me: I was expendable for the sake of other potential lives. It has taken me a long time to believe that I too am a child of God and...

double post sorry

If you take out a restraining order, it is illegal for the stalker to contact you to update you and state his opinion about your activity, but taking out a restraining order increases a victim's chances of being killed. It is legal for a stalker to continue to collect information after a...

The United States of America. Also of note that in many states it is legal to cyberstalk a victim as long as you don't use the information collected about them online to commit crimes offline. So watching their every move and telling the victim the details of the information collected is...

I would like to purchase the memory verse flashcards at some point. For now, I just need to use what is free to get started; if I am faithful to stick with it, I will reward myself with a nice tidy package. Thanks again for all the information!

I think we have established that, and we are all in agreement. But there are decades and centuries between the changes; things settle down and result in MORE standardization that with other translations. At the very least, standardization reduces the cost of resource books, inside and outside...

It is often not safe for a woman to report a rape or even seek medical care of any kind. I lost a friend that went to the hospital for a shattered shoulder. The ER was mandated to report certain kinds of assaults on women to the police. The police used this women to prosecute the man that hurt...

Are these still available in hardcopy? Are they issuing new hardcopy volumes for each change in the translations? I have seen new ebook versions that are quite pricey and must be repeatedly repurchased as editions become incompatible with the software that reads them as they are declared...

These are the kinds of things that need to be put in place before legislation is passed that merely restricts safe access. These kinds of things immediately save lives.

And changing laws requires writing these hows into the laws.

Thank you so much for the book list and review!
