The Game Of Life 2 Ultimate Life Collection
Nichelle Gruger
As a creative studio we care about the small things because we understand the final result is simply the sum of all the decisions we made along the way. Keep reading to learn about some of our favorite design details within the Light and Life Collection.
We used Smyth Sewn binding for the Light and Life Collection, which is the highest quality binding technique available. Each page is physically sewn in, resulting in a book that will stand up to heavy use over many years. Smyth Sewn books are also a pleasure to read from because they open flat making it easy for reading, highlighting, or jotting your notes in the margin.
The gift edition of Steps to Christ is the same hardcover book included in the complete set, but it comes wrapped in a dust jacket that includes a quote from Steps to Christ positioned between the holographic foil lines on the cover.
When you purchase the gift edition, you will be able to select the quote used on the dust jacket from a range of options, and we will have the option for a custom dust jacket where you can pick your own quote.
One of our goals with the Light and Life Collection was to create the best reading experience possible, and this meant updating select words using the following criteria: (1) the word is archaic and unfamiliar to contemporary audiences, and (2) the meaning of the word today is different from its meaning in the nineteenth century.
Have you ever wondered why Jesus used parables so extensively during ministry? This timeless book begins by answering that question, and then explores the depths of these timeless stories to draw life-changing insights that are as applicable for us today as when the words were originally spoken.

Technology allows us to work more and more efficiently and enjoy increased productivity. That increased productivity drives us to work even more, creating blurred lines and imbalances between work, play and family time.
Our goal is to build and provide an environment and resident experience that is informed by these realities; to capitalize on the amazing opportunities technology presents, while mitigating the challenges along the path to successful and meaningful lives.
To achieve this goal, we focused on four pillars: Balance, Community, Wellness, and Sustainability. The Life Collection combines intentionally developed spaces with resident centered programming and service offerings designed to promote a sustainable balance between life, work, and wellness to enrich the lives of our residents and foster community.
Our spaces provide diverse opportunities for you to engage and socialize within the resident community, as well as the broader community; area businesses, the arts, charitable organizations, and events.
The Life Collection connects people, place, and community through a network of meaningful partnerships, services, events and building attributes that enrich the lives of our residents at our properties and within their greater communities.

The Federal Writers' Project materials in the Library of Congress Manuscript Division are part of a larger collection titled The U.S. Work Projects Administration Federal Writers' Project and Historical Records Survey. The holdings from Federal Writers' Project span the years 1889-1942 and cover a wide range of topics and subprojects. Altogether, the Federal Writers' holdings number approximately 300,000 items and consist of correspondence, memoranda, field reports, notes, graphs, charts, preliminary and corrected drafts of essays, oral testimony, folklore, miscellaneous administrative and miscellaneous other material.
Well over one-half of the materials in this record group pertain to the American Guide, the sobriquet for the critically acclaimed state guides. The remainder of the material reflects other areas of interest that developed as the project grew in maturity. They include a rich collection of rural and urban folklore; first-person narratives (called life histories) describing the feelings of men and women coping with life and the Depression; studies of social customs of various ethnic groups; authentic narratives of ex-slaves about life during the period of Slavery; and Negro source material gathered by project workers. In addition, drafts of publications and intended publications are included. These publications express concern with the direction America was taking and with the preservation and communication of local culture. Titles include Hands That Build America, From These Strains, Lexicon of Trade Jargon, and Pockets in America.
The arrangement of the larger collection generally reflects the division of work within the Writers' Project such as material relating to The American Guide, the Folklore Project, Social-ethnic Studies, and Slave Narratives. Other series are compilations for archival purposes such as administrative papers or Negro studies material. Still others are groups of similar material such as printed matter and the like.
The plight of the unemployed writer, and indeed anyone who could qualify as a writer such as a lawyer, a teacher, or a librarian, during the early years of the Depression, was of concern not only to the Roosevelt Administration, but also to writers' organizations and persons of liberal and academic persuasions. It was felt, generally, that the New Deal could come up with more appropriate work situations for this group other than blue collar jobs on construction projects. To the Administration's liking were plans generated from a series of meetings held in 1934 between Jacob Baker, Harry Hopkins' chief Civil Works Administration assistant in charge of special and professional programs, Henry Alsberg, Bakers' assistant, Katherine Kellock, a writer familiar with international and social organizations, and others. The outcome of these sessions was a project for all the "arts," (labeled Federal One), divided administratively by each specialty and headed by professionals in the field. The Writers' Project, later characterized by some as the federal government's attempt to "democratize American culture," was approved for federal monies in June, 1935. Baker chose his assistant, Alsberg, as director. As the Project continued into the late thirties, the director was powerless to stop increasing criticism by reactionary Congressmen who were intent on shutting down the enterprise. In October 1939, the Project's federal monies ceased, due to the Administration's need for a larger defense budget. After 1939, emasculated, the Project sputtered along on monies funded to the states, closing completely one year or so after America's entry into World War II.
Researchers should note that the American Memory collection presented here is a coherent portion of the Library's larger Federal Writers' series and the WPA collection. It includes the life histories and corollary documents assembled by the Folklore Project within the Federal Writers' effort.
Within the Federal Writers' Project, material relating to folklore and social-ethnic studies was collected and shaped through the efforts of John A. Lomax, Benjamin A. Botkin, and Morton Royce. The activity documented in writing traditional statements, expressions, songs, essays, stories, and the like, with tilt toward accounts of frontier and pioneer life. The Folklore Project filed its material under the general headings "traditional" and "life histories."
The Writers' Project staff variously described the life histories as life sketches, living lore, industrial lore, and occupational lore. The narratives were meant to reflect the ordinary person's struggle with the vicissitudes of daily living. This American Memory presentation is limited to the Folklore Project life histories. Similar accounts may be found in the Social-Ethnic portion of the WPA collection; these may be digitized in the future.
At the time, Botkin said, the collected lore and narratives were to be used as the basis for anthologies which would form a composite and comprehensive portrait of various groups of people in America. The entire body of material provides the raw content for a broad documentary of both rural and urban life, interspersed with accounts and traditions of ethnic group traditions, customs regarding planting, cooking, marriage, death, celebrations, recreation, and a wide variety of narratives. The quality of collecting and writing lore varies from state to state, reflecting the skills of the interviewer-writers and the supervision they received.
