The Chronicles of Nai Nai is a story of faith, perseverance, hard work, and success through God’s mercy and grace. Mary Shao Mei Lee Chen was born in post-World War II Taiwan. The fourth of six girls born to an accountant and office worker, Mary discovered her Christian faith at an early age. One of her earliest memories was memorizing Psalm 121:1-2 NIV - “I lift up my eyes to the mountains – where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.” Before coming to America Mary met Jen-Ling Chen, the top student in his class at Taiwan’s most prestigious university. They came to America to pursue their education. Eventually they married, started a family, and Jen-Ling attended medical school. Their road, however, was not an easy one. Modest success gave way to poverty and homelessness. A successful medical practice was threatened by a deadly medical diagnosis. Through it all, they trusted in God to look after their family and show them their path. Together with God’s guidance, they created a mission-driven healthcare organization that brings affordable, quality healthcare to America’s poorest, sickest, and most forgotten senior citizens. The Chronicles of Nai Nai is their story of faith, perseverance, hard work, and ultimately, success, through God’s mercy and grace.

The gripping story of an explosive turning point in the history of modern India On the night of June 25, 1975, Indira Gandhi declared a state of emergency in India, suspending constitutional rights and rounding up her political opponents in midnight raids across the country. In the twenty-one harrowing months that followed, her regime unleashed a brutal campaign of coercion and intimidation, arresting and torturing people by the tens of thousands, razing slums, and imposing compulsory sterilization on the poor. Emergency Chronicles provides the first comprehensive account of this understudied episode in India’s modern history. Gyan Prakash strips away the comfortable myth that the Emergency was an isolated event brought on solely by Gandhi’s desire to cling to power, arguing that it was as much the product of Indian democracy’s troubled relationship with popular politics. Drawing on archival records, private papers and letters, published sources, film and literary materials, and interviews with victims and perpetrators, Prakash traces the Emergency’s origins to the moment of India’s independence in 1947, revealing how the unfulfilled promise of democratic transformation upset the fine balance between state power and civil rights. He vividly depicts the unfolding of a political crisis that culminated in widespread popular unrest, which Gandhi sought to crush by paradoxically using the law to suspend lawful rights. Her failure to preserve the existing political order had lasting and unforeseen repercussions, opening the door for caste politics and Hindu nationalism. Placing the Emergency within the broader global history of democracy, this gripping book offers invaluable lessons for us today as the world once again confronts the dangers of rising authoritarianism and populist nationalism.

Early retired pastor, Alexander Bastion, sits in a Seattle mental care facility, staring out the cafeteria window at a world nobody else can see. He sees a peculiar and stormy world, where the darkened glass is shattered and the thin veil, which shields people from the sight of wars in heavenly realms is torn asunder. For some reason God has shown him that all people are about to sleep for a millennium and only some will wake. All who wake will join a final thousand-year war against evil, ushering in the ultimate and inexorable return of the King of kings.
Ethnic minorities historically comprised a solid majority of Bangkok's population. They played a dominant role in the city's exuberant economic and social development. In the shadow of Siam's prideful, flamboyant Thai ruling class, the city's diverse minorities flourished quietly. The Thai-Portuguese; the Mon; the Lao; the Cham, Persian, Indian, Malay, and Indonesian Muslims; and the Taechiu, Hokkien, Hakka, Hainanese, and Cantonese Chinese speech groups were particularly important. Others, such as the Khmer, Vietnamese, Thai Yuan, Sikhs, and Westerners, were smaller in numbers but no less significant in their influence on the city's growth and prosperity. In tracing the social, political, and spatial dynamics of Bangkok's ethnic pluralism through the two-and-a-half centuries of the city's history, this book calls attention to a long-neglected mainspring of Thai urban development. While the book's primary focus is on the first five reigns of the Chakri dynasty (1782-1910), the account extends backward and forward to reveal the continuing impact of Bangkok's ethnic minorities on Thai culture change, within the broader context of Thai development studies. It provides an exciting perspective and unique resource for anyone interested in exploring Bangkok's evolving cultural milieu or Thailand's modern history.
