Press Release: Askies, Meneer Wikkelspies - Rona Marx

 

Just Done Productions – Publishing would like to announce the release of a new book –Askies, Meneer Wikkelspies by Rona Marx. This volume of poetry is written in Afrikaans.

The poems are rooted in contemporary culture – titled ‘Afrikaners is Plesierig’, ‘Die Taal’, ‘Straatvrou’ and ‘Engel van die Sand’ to name a few. The multi-layered poems cover a range of experiences from the struggles of life, love, pure joy to spiritual awakening. The author demonstrates her love for the Afrikaans language through her sense of delight in the power and meaning of words.

 "Daar is niks nuuts onder die son nie. Tóg tree daar so dan en wan ‘n stem na vore met ‘n vars perspektief op die alledaagse. Iemand wat dieper kan sien as net die gewone, en dit vir die leser kan vertaal; kan beskryf.

In haar eerste samevatting van gedigte, skets Rona Marx haar wêreld in eg-Afrikaans. Sommige woorde sal die leser byderwets vind, maar ander,  amper-vergete woorde is afgestof en blink gepoets en gebruik op ‘n manier wat ons herinner aan die uitdrukkingskrag, die rondheid, die kreatiwiteit, van die Afrikaanse Taal.

Hier sal die leser ‘n spektrum ondervindings en beskrywings vind: liefde, swaarkry, spirituele ontwaking, hartseer, vreugde sonder grense… En elkers diep getref word deur laag op laag betekenis en beskrywing."

Geniet die twee gedigtes van die boek / Enjoy these two poems from the book:

Die Taal
Ek verheug my in
Die taal
Van my Siembamba dae
Wat my tong laat rol
En my keelgat bevry
Vir jare het ek geswerf
Verkies om daai universele taal
Te praat en te droom
Want vir té lank was jy verkrag
Misbruik tot die voordeel
Van mense wat jou wou inspan
Om te haat
Te vernietig
Te mishandel
Maar ons twee is terug
En ons maak weer kennis
Ek ontdek en onthou jou weer
Dag vir dag
Oomblik vir oomblik
Jy bevry my tong;
My siel
Ek kan weer vryelik uitdrukking gee
Uitdrukking gee
Aan my binneste
Die gevoelens wat opborrel uit my maag
En ek is bly jy’s terug
En ek is bly ek’s terug
O skone Taal
Mooie tongval
Van hier af stap ons twee saam
Die toekoms in.

Ag, verskoon tog
Jy sit altyd i before e, except after c en onthou tog om jou t’s ge-cross en jou i’s ge-dot te kry
Voor jy kan keer stuur hy vir jou ‘n e-mail en jy trap die clutch
En jy wonder wat is die beste Cee-Dee om te koop vir die paartie
en solank dit tog net leather seats het
en moet net nie vergeet hoe cool dit jou gaan maak voel nie
Maar die lewe in die Nuwe Suid-Afrika is amazing soos paptert en Nkosi Sikelel’ en alles
en maak tog seker die kinners gaan Crawford toe
En moet tog net nie die Taal te suiwer praat nie,
want dis mos die language van die oppressor
en ons moet mos maar altyd en vir ewig skaam bly
en die kruis dra en askies sê
Probeer tog om nie met té veel van ‘n Afrikaanse aksent te praat nie –
probeer maar eerder soos ‘n Ingelsman klink
Want dit is die stront innie mond vannie môre stond
Want die taxman gaan jou bliksem
en die spietkop gaan jou vang
as jy daai pirate DVD’s koop by die hawker op die hoek van die straat
Vir ewig en altyd in jou moer in
AMEN

Press Release: "Biblical Weather Check" and "Paeans of Praise"

 

Just Done Productions would like to announce the publication of two new books. These books are available for purchase from the Just Done Website http://www.justdone.co.za/

Biblical Weather-Forecast: An Imperative Reality Check

ABOUT THE BOOK
This book is A MUST READ for all Christians who truly desire an objective, candid analysis of what the Lord Jesus Christ had to say regarding the tribulation and the great tribulation that His followers would experience in this world as a result of their faith in Him, stripped of all sugar-coating and wishful thinking.

The Lord Jesus Christ warned the Christian church at Thyatira that if they did not repent of following the doctrines of Jezebel, He Himself would throw them into GREAT TRIBULATION.  This is one of the only three passages in the New Testament which speaks about GREAT tribulation.  Another one speaks about a great multitude of saints in heaven who had come out of the GREAT tribulation, and one other is where the Lord Jesus Christ speaks about GREAT tribulation at the end of the age, immediately before His second coming.

Using columns to compare various Biblical passages, "Biblical Weather Forecast.  An Imperative Reality Check" is a thorough, objective analysis of New and Old Testament passages which speak about GREAT tribulation, the WRATH of God coming upon the world, and "the great and terrible day of the LORD".  The startling discovery is made that 27 out of 29 New Testament references to "tribulation" or "affliction" - including the only three New Testament references to GREAT tribulation - are in the context of the followers of Jesus at the hand of the people and authorities of this world.  The columns show that what the New Testament refers to 33 times as the WRATH of God coming upon the world, correlates with what the Old Testament refers to as "the great and terrible day of the LORD", and that this wrath follows on the heels of GREAT tribulation suffered by the followers of Jesus immediately before their resurrection and removal into heaven, and the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.


ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Ananias Laos is a committed Christian and family man who grew up in a gold-mining town not too far from Johannesburg, South Africa.  As a young adult Ananias followed his father's beliefs in the Eastern philosophical concepts of reincarnation, the evolution of the soul, Karma and Nirvana.  In his late twenties, Ananias had the same "born-again" experience described by so many Christians who, until they were "born-again", had not believed in Jesus Christ or the Bible.  This experience completely changed Ananias's thinking forever, and caused a 180-degree about-turn with regard to his attitude toward the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible.  Decades later, Ananias now lives with his wife in Cape Town and has, like a number of his Christian friends, become deeply alarmed and concerned about the teaching in all too many Christian churches, denominations and movements with respect to the teaching of the Lord Jesus Christ about the tribulation and great tribulation which Jesus said His followers would experience in this world as a result of their faith in Him.

Paeans of Praise Jessica Braid has written a book of 18 inspirational poems. She states: "I have been a Christian since childhood thanks to my loving mother and I am amazed every day by the wonders of God's love. He has brought my family through many trials and tribulations and He has inspired me to write these poems to hopefully show others and bring them closer to God." This is a great gift for someone who needs to be inspired again and remember why they are a Christian. Here is a sample of her poetry: Life   The question is why? The answer, who knows No matter how hard we try Life still gives you some hard blows   But it's no matter For God is always with you Take what is put on your platter For the victory is always in view   He will never leave you, nor forsake This is the promise He gives Put aside what you feel is at stake For the Father in Heaven who lives   Blessings and riches you will receive From the Heavenly Father above All He asks is that you believe And show Him how much you can love.
