Jesus Christ by David Tyler
There is a great emphasis on self in our culture today; self-esteem, self-love, self-worth, self-image and many more. Love for self motivates us to follow our own agenda, vent our feelings, justify self, and blame someone else or something else for problems we face. This is not taught in the Bible. The main emphasis on self in the Bible is self-denial and self-sacrifice. This book examines the words and actions of Jesus Christ and will demonstrate that He was others-oriented; that he taught and modeled self-denial as opposed to self-love. A Christian cannot esteem himself and take up the cross at the same time.
Gratwick, Harry: - Harry Gratwick is a lifelong summer resident of Vinalhaven Island in Penobscot Bay. Recently retired, Gratwick enjoyed a forty-six-year career as a secondary school history teacher, coach and administrator. He spent most of these years at Germantown Friends School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he chaired the History Department and coached the varsity baseball team. This book combines two of Harry's passions: his love of history and of the sea. He has cruised the Maine coast from Casco Bay to Mount Desert. He is an active member of the Vinalhaven Historical Society and has written extensively on maritime history for two Island Institute publications, the Working Waterfront and the Island Journal. Gratwick is a graduate of Williams College and has a master's degree from Columbia University. Harry and his wife, Tita, spend the winter months in Philadelphia. They have two grown sons, a Russian daughter-in-law and two grandsons. Hidden History of Maine is his second book.
