Freedom House

Rita’s downsizing journey was inspired by a trip to a third world country when she traveled to Senegal, West Africa, to visit her son who was serving in the Peace Corps. She was profoundly moved by the people who were truly happy even though they had so little. This experience ignited a new passion for living a simpler life with less, which then led her to downsizing from a 5,000 sq. ft. home to an 867 sq. ft. apartment. She fearlessly gave away 95 percent of her belongings to people who needed or wanted them.

For ten years, Senator Bob Graham served on the Senate Intelligence Committee, where he oversaw the conduct of the CIA and had access to some of the nation's most closely guarded secrets. In this explosive, controversial, and profoundly alarming insider's report, Senator Graham reveals faults in America's national security network severe enough to raise fundamental questions about the competence and honesty of public officials in the CIA, the FBI, and the White House.

Ann Coulter, whose examination of the Clinton impeachment was a major national bestseller and earned widespread praise, now takes on an even tougher issue. At a time when Democrats and Republicans should be overwhelmingly congenial, American political debate has become increasingly hostile, overly personal, and insufferably trivial. Whether conducted in Congress or on the political talk shows, played out at dinners or cocktail parties, politics is a nasty sport. At the risk of giving away the ending: It’s all liberals’ fault.

Everyone knows that it’s better to buy a house early: Who doesn’t want to own his or her own home outright? Some rich people buy big houses early; some even use cash in full. Some poor are not able to afford small residences even with mortgages, which is understandable. Regardless, I think that the most common dilemma could be this: Do I have to buy a big house with a mortgage or a small condo with full cash?

Slave narratives are extremely rare. Of the 100 or so of these testimonies that survive, a mere handful are first-person accounts by slaves who ran away and freed themselves. Now two newly uncovered narratives, and the biographies of the men who wrote them, join that exclusive group.

En Libertad Osho define tres estadios: El primero es la «libertad de», una libertad que procede de la ruptura de la «esclavitud psicológica» impuesta por las fuerzas externas como la familia o la religión.

Robert Baer was known inside the CIA as perhaps the best operative working the Middle East. Dana was originally tasked for Agency background checks, but always wanted more. When Bob and Dayna met on a mission in Sarajevo, it wasn’t love at first sight. But there was something there, a spark. And as the danger escalated and their affection for each other grew, they realized it was time to leave “the Company,” to somehow rediscover the people they’d once been. As worldly as they both were, the couple didn’t realize at first that turning in their Agency ID cards would not be enough to put their covert past behind.

Called "a world-class power broker" by the Washington Post, Robert Brown has been a sought-after counselor for an impressive array of the famous and powerful, including every American president since John F. Kennedy. But as a child born into poverty in the 1930s, Robert was raised by his grandmother to think differently about success. For example, "The best way to influence others is to be helpful", she told him. And, "You can’t go wrong by doing right." Fueled by these lessons, Brown went on to play a pivotal, mostly unseen role alongside the powerful of our time.

In 2011, Marwan Hisham and his two friends - fellow working-class college students Nael and Tareq - joined the first protests of the Arab Spring in Syria, in response to a recent massacre. Arm in arm they marched, poured Coca-Cola into one another’s eyes to blunt the effects of tear gas, ran from the security forces, and cursed the country’s president, Bashar al-Assad. It was ecstasy. A long-bottled revolution was finally erupting, and freedom from a brutal dictator seemed, at last, imminent.

Freedom Oliver has plenty of secrets. She lives in a small Oregon town and keeps mostly to herself. Her few friends and neighbors know she works at the local biker bar; they know she gets arrested for public drunkenness almost every night; they know she’s brash, funny, and fearless.

Osho nos propone el reto de llevar a cabo una revolución individual por la que concebiremos el mundo de una forma nueva y radical.

SILENCE THE VOICE OF THE ACCUSER So many individuals, families, cities, and even nations are ruined by a lack of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding of the captivity caused by the lies, accusations guilt and condemnation of satan. (Hosea 4:6) You have an enemy—satan, whom the Bible calls the “accuser of our brethren” (Revelation 12:10). He works night and day to destroy you (1 Peter 5:8), by bringing you into judgment, condemnation, and guilt—bondages that the Lord Jesus Christ died to free you from (Galatians 5:1). Not only does he accuse believers, he tempts and tests their ...
