While in the process of writing this book, a catastrophic event occurred in US firefighting history. An elite force of firefighters, nineteen in number (eighteen men and one woman), died while fighting a forest fire in Arizona. A wind shift placed this raging inferno head-on into this force. One TV announcer claimed the winds were gushing up to fifty miles per hour. Television programs showed viewers what these firefighters had to protect themselves. They lay flat on the ground and put this tentlike apparatus over them, which was probably made of a fire-retardant material, but this could not protect these heroes from thousand-degree temperatures and gusting winds, which turned this inferno similar to a flamethrower. As a firefighter, even though youve fought similar fires, many times you never take anything for granted. As you will see in this book, fires thought to be under control were turned into second and larger alarms. The red devil sometimes throws you a curve ball, and it can cost you your life and civilians lives. While you have this story fresh in your minds, say a prayer for these firefighters who got burned alive. And on the eighth day, God created firefighters.
The Act of Teaching answers an important but seldom asked question: What does it mean to teach someone something? Most books that say they are about teaching discuss only the special form of teaching that occurs in a classroom.This book traces two philosophical traditions from ancient times to the present. One tradition assumes a group of people who are the teachers and others who are the learners. The second tradition recognizes all human beings. and at least some nonhumans, as engaged in teaching and learning. This tradition is more comprehensive in meaning and more practical in application. The meaning of teaching in this second tradition is showing someone how to do something. Teaching begins with the way a mother cares for a child and speaks to a child. A child learns by responding to its parents and to other people in its environment. Every individual continues throughout life to learn from teachers who are often unaware that they are teaching. Most teaching is communal and nonverbal.Teaching in the context of a school is not the main topic of this book. Nevertheless, schoolteachers might find many of this book's examples of teaching-learning to be a valuable source for reflection on their own work.Author Description: Gabriel Moran is Professor Emeritus of Educational Philosophy at New York University where he taught for thirty-five years. He is the author of twenty-eight books which cover a wide range of topics in education, religion, ethics and politics. All the books are concerned with finding language that can help conversation about divisive issues. The meaning of teaching has been a central concern of the author for many decades.

November 2, 1975 at 2:00 a.m., Charol the messenger was shaken out of her mundane life. After a harrowing week, turning to prayer for help, she fell into a deep slumber, in which she saw angels surrounding her amidst a heavenly glow, heard their chorus of song outside the Gates of Heaven, and felt the presence of Archangel Michael overlighting her. Throughout the night, revelations came in waves to Charol about humanity's future. The next day, she began writing. January 13, 2019 at 3:30 a.m., Charol was wakened by an inner nudging and went to her meditation room. In the arm chair, while she was deep in the consciousness, Jesus began speaking to her the first Letter of many that he wishes to share with all humanity. Enveloped in his loving energy, feeling his grace and tenderness and inimitable Presence, she wrote down the words.
