    af Peter King
    213,95 kr.

    Much of our experience of our immediate environment is quite ordinary and familiar, in particular, where we live. While policymakers and academics are constantly seeking transformations in housing, what we seek from our own housing is stability and lack of change. This book considers this experience of housing and how we depend upon it.

    God's Grace is a free gift to all Born Again Christians and accepting it and understanding it will make a huge difference in their lives. For Born Again Christian's it means a lot to them during their daily lives. Everything they do during their daily lives is being watched by God's Holy Spirit whilst guiding them throughout their lives. Their thoughts, words and actions mean a lot to God as it should to them. Every part of God's Grace is precious because it is a free gift and Born Again Christians treat it with great importance. God's Grace can provide the best a Born Again Christian can receive in their life because God promised everyone a perfect body and a perfect life. Born Again Christians will receive a new body and a new life when they enter Heaven and this is all because of their Saviour Jesus Christ who sacrificed his life on the cross because of their sins. For people who are not Born Again Christians, and not likely to be, God's Grace will mean nothing to them and even though they may think they understand and accept parts of it, Satan (The Devil) will be working on them to prevent them from receiving God's Grace. He will be creating as much bad and evil in their lives as possible and making their lives as hard as can be. That will include bad thoughts, words and deeds which most won't repent from. The author has a very strong faith and understands and accepts God's Grace all the time. The author knows he has sinned during his life and asks for forgiveness plus repents from his sins every day and wants God's Grace to be with him, through the guidance of God's Holy Spirit, for the rest of his earthly life. The author's friendship with God is very strong and will hopefully be a big help to others. God's Grace is not only a free gift but it does include a wide range of things that only Born Again Christians will know and be thinking of and feeling due to the fact they know God is with them all the time and is involved in their life continuously. God's Grace certainly does work.

  • - A Jazz Life and Beyond
    af Peter King
    343,95 kr.

    With a Foreword by Benny Golson, Peter King's book ranks among the great jazz autobiographies. One of the world's leading alto saxophonists, he tells his story with searing honesty, revealing the obsessions and motivations that have driven him and the dilemmas of surviving as a top creative musician in an often inhospitable world. With unsparing selfanalysis he describes the traumas that accompanied his brilliant career for many years. Internationally recognised as a jazz star, Peter King has performed and recorded with a galaxy of musical legends, many of them his close friends. Among those vividly recalled in this book are Bud Powell, Milt Jackson, Ray Charles, Anita O'Day, Elvin Jones, Max Roach, Hampton Hawes, Al Haig, Philly Joe Jones, Zoot Sims, Jimmy Witherspoon, Dakota Staton, Red Rodney, Jon Hendricks, Tony Bennett and Marlene Dietrich. But while the story here centres on Peter King's life in jazz it shows other important sides of him too: his ambitions and achievements in classical composing, his interests outside music (he is a leading figure and writer in the aeromodelling world) and, above all, the treasured personal relationships that have sustained him through a turbulent life. Flying High tells of an exhilarating high altitude journey, in the jazz world and beyond.
