Book Review - The Appeal by John Grisham

'Justice on whose side'
I started the book thinking, that the book would be of an appeal of the good would win over the evil.
John Grisham starts the book of with a hung jury hungry for the verdict,
It is a story of the Payton family who files a case against Krane Chemicals, illegally dumped deadly chemical near a village called Bowmore. The chemical eventually got into the ravens and polluted the drinking water supply and with that effect, people affected with cancer die.
With that that place is called the cancer county. The verdict is pronounced and there is a payoff of 41 million dollars.
The case goes to an appeal to the supreme court where the The Krane chemical company manuplates and buys out the entire supreme court and gets the verdict in favour of the chemical company.
A case that had been held for under a hot trail for four months, and 16,000 pages of writing and then the verdict, which was hard to believe for the council. Followed by an appeal at the supreme court after 2 years.
The entire process of this book is, getting to the supreme court, and then the verdict.
The story is a 50/50 % a complicated fictious book.
My verdict: A good writing skill to keep the page turning.

The latest Camp at Avalanche

at the start was Na na na na na na na , Na na na.......dip de de dip.......Fa fa, Ga ga, Ho ho, La la and continued with In the Jungle. These were the songs we listened. The camp was at Avalanche organized by J- Team Chennai and the Fishermen's Trust Bangalore.
it was one awesome time.
Sure the kids did enjoy all the activities and the Word, that was shared through Dr. Avila , Dave and Shake Bahi. It was one thrilling experience for us all.
Asha was in Kerala helping her sister who is pregnant, she missed it.
This time for me was a time of reflection, and spending more time in reading his Word and Oswald Chambers Devotional in my tent. I did miss Asha, so i got back to her as soon as the camp got over.
This camp i realizied the 'waiting times are not wasting times'.
We had Ambresh from Deodurga, Raichur and Anu John form Kerala attend the camp.
Continue to pray for theose who have comitted themsevles to their creator.
finally the song all sung was.... i found the wayyyyyy.... the way to go home.

Much Love and Prayers

Dear friends

We leave Neerekshe for a year on August 1st 2008, and we finish our work with the Camp at Avalanche. Scritpure Camp site. An awesome place on the hills

First time in the History Of Raichur a group of village people, from 6 villages attended a camp in Ooty, Avalanche. The Number of villages we have covered are Muranpur, Kalmala, Gabbur, Deodurga, Turkun-doni and Raichur. All these places are situated in Raichur District. It is also called the Grave Yard of Missions in Karnataka.
We have organized this camp for these Students. It was a first time experience for the ones attending.
A Friend asked me, why would I keep a camp in avalanche for these people, you just do it in the village, my reply to that was why do we in cities go to camp. don’t they deserve it also?
Well here is a chance for you to give these students a chance to see Gods Creation in its fullness, and also so that they can enjoy them selves.
The Theme was E- Square

Elijah and Elisha

This would mean a lot to them. So to us.

Now
Thank you

Lazarus

Where is the power that rose Lazarus from the dead or just fiction?

Last week one of my friends passed away in a road accident. I couldn’t take it and drove to Raichur. Most of the members of the church where I used to attend before marriage (Banswadi Bible Church), came together and mourned for my/our friend Rudolph Jacob. May be after a long time they all came together, well I was missing. Rudolph, since he was one of my close friends in a small gang, did many things, played the fool as well as Table Tennis. The other friends were Danny Ravindra, Manoj Jacob, David, Joshua and Jason.

Here is Rudolph lying in a pool of blood in Delhi. Cause of death – rammed into a lorry.

Got the news in Bangalore through a friend called Rajshekar Moorthy. After few minutes called Danny told him the message. Shattered by it.

So it happened

We prayer for the family. Then…

I asked my self then where was God’s power? Where is that power that raised Lazarus from the dead? Not just a full stop but a question mark. Where?

What has happened? is that thing that happened then a lie?
