Books with author Charles W Moores

Charles Moore's masterful and definitive biography of Britain's first female prime minister reaches its climax with the story of her zenith and her fall.How did Margaret Thatcher change and divide Britain? How did her model of combative female leadership help shape the way we live now? How did the woman who won the Cold War and three general elections in succession find herself pushed out by her own MPs?Charles Moore's full account, based on unique access to Margaret Thatcher herself, her papers, and her closest associates, tells the story of her last period in office, her combative retirement, and the controversy that surrounded her even in death. It includes the fall of the Berlin Wall, which she had fought for, and the rise of the modern EU that she feared. It lays bare her growing quarrels with colleagues and reveals the truth about her political assassination.Moore's three-part biography of Britain's most important peacetime prime minister paints an intimate political and personal portrait of the victories and defeats, the iron will but surprising vulnerability of the woman who dominated in an age of male power. This is the full, enthralling story.

The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church, Book 1 of The Spirit-Filled Life Bible Study, answers many questions concerning the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit both in our personal lives and in the church. This book helps us answer,What does it mean to be Spirit-filled?What is a Spirit-filled church, and how do I find a Spirit-filled church near me?What is a Spirit-filled person or Christian, and what does living a Spirit-filled life look like?What are Spirit-filled preachers? What are Spirit-filled prayers?What are Spirit-filled Bible studies? What is a Spirit-filled church fellowship?Charles reveals to us in his book the characteristics of the first century church that should be the norm in our churches today. We need to practice these Spirit-Filled traits with our children, our teens, our young adults, and our adults if we want true Biblical revival in our church. Revival starts here in these ten characteristics taken from Acts 2 with the beginning of the first church. This writing is genuinely a great Revival Bible study book that you will find inspirational. This book will ask if your church is an apostolic church, a word church, a fellowshipping church, a giving church, a communing church, a praying church, a supernatural church, a joyful church, an evangelistic church, a praising church, and a worshipping church. If not, there is a good chance your church is more religious than Spirit-filled. A church led by and filled with the Holy Spirit is a church that finds a fountain of praise and victory in praise coming forth to bless God and others. “The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church” is a great Christian Pastoral resource and counseling tool to assist in Christian personal growth. This book will help churches and church leadership in evangelism and the ministry of discipleship and spiritual growth.

Excerpt from The Life of Abraham Lincoln for Boys and GirlsAs the endless caravan of canvas-covered wagons crept up the long, uneven slope on the Virginia side of the mountain range, hundreds of these venturesome pioneers passed the moln farm, each company, no doubt, shouting to the less adventurous farmer, as they passed, a playful invitation to sell out and come along. The elder Abraham Lincoln soon caught the spirit and joined the procession of emigrants that for the next fifty years was to take its winding course over the Wilderness Trail to the new West.In 1780, Kentucky was a vast solitude, inhabited by wild beasts and a few scattered bands of Indians. Its trees and streams, its wild ravines and sweeping val leys, lay before the wondering eyes of the emigrants as they came down the western slope of the great moun tain barrier, a picture of indescribable beauty, a picture in which there were no signs of human life, no houses, or schools, or churches, or bridges, or roads, or fields of grain. It was a paradise just as God's hand had left it. And yet the struggle that was going on there between Daniel Boone and his comrades in adventure and the few thousand savages who claimed this paradise as their own, gave to Kentucky the romantic name of the dark and bloody ground, and ofiered promise of excitement and adventure, as well as a free home, to all who might leave civilization behind them and brave the hardships of the Wilderness Trail.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
