Download or read book Wrestling With My Thoughts written by Sharon Hastings and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-01-16 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She couldn't believe it. There she was with her medical qualifications sitting on the floor of a mental hospital. She'd been baptized, offered her life to God, wanted to serve him anywhere, but no, surely not this... Sharon Hastings is absolutely passionate about helping anyone who suffers from 'severe and enduring mental illness' (SEMI): schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder. She wants the church to know all about these illnesses: how they devastate ordinary people and how they need to be treated. By telling her story, warts and all, showing her own tortuous, painful journey, she equips us to come alongside loved ones, fellow church members, friends and neighbours, understanding the social and spiritual ramifications of their illnesses, including them in our activities (where appropriate) and encouraging their spiritual growth. A natural storyteller, the author draws us in. We journey with her as she shares deeply. With wisdom, kindness and the heart of a bruised survivor, she interweaves her exceptional story with vital teaching which cannot be ignored by anyone within the church today.

Download or read book We Wrestle Silently written by Michael Kurcina and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes all men or women need is a simple solution to help them with their complex problem by reading a quote. It helps them reframe and refocus so they can continue on their way in life. We Wrestle Silently is a book for those who have some kind of silent struggle in their existence, and are looking for something that will help them fight back. This book isn't just for those with military or law-enforcement backgrounds, it is for anyone who is actively engaged in some kind of battle in life and they want to use the lessons they've learned to become better versions of themselves.Learning is the process of acquiring new preferences, attitudes, knowledge, skills, understanding, or values. We're told that the character Jacob, in the Bible, wrestled with God and came away with some lessons learned. Many of us are wrestling with our self and we do it silently. We don't always ask for help when we're struggling; it could be a small or large problem. For those who like to read, I hope you get something out of reading this short book. 'Chew' on some of the quotes herein; agree, or disagree but I hope you get something and come away with a new perspective on your life.This book is meant to be a companion piece to my first book, We Fight Monsters. Why did I write this book? We Wrestle Silently is a collection of quotes that I wrote over a period of two years on Instagram. People from all over the world messaged me and explained that many of my short-stories and quotes inspired them to change course. Many of those quotes can be found in my first book, We Fight Monsters, but this book also has a lot of new material not found there. It's meant to be a pocket book to read no matter where you are. Every day when disappointment makes us die a little death, we must attempt to make something good come out of any crippling hurt or private terror. My goal with this book was to give people a little bit of mental and spiritual refreshment, as they stopped at the oasis of their life, and once renewed got up so they could continue on their journey a bit wiser. I hope I didn't fail at my task. God bless you.

Download or read book A Soul s Journey written by Rabbi Terry Bookman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-12 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The journey of the spirit is not marked by a smooth, four-lane highway. Rather, like the path through a Zen garden, it is curved, with many switchbacks and lots of turns. While there may be many beginnings, there really is no destination. Its goal is self-awareness, enlightenment, and inner peace. It is a journey we take with our lives. In his latest book, Rabbi Terry Bookman explores the many ups and downs associated with the life of the spirit. Drawing on the ancient traditions of Judaism. A Soul's Journey serves as a kind of roadmap for the path, offering practical insights and modern applications along the way. Rabbi Bookman has been described as a "wise and compassionate teacher" who combines knowledge from a wide variety of disciplines and religious faiths to challenge and encourage his students and readers. He is the author of two books, The Busy Soul and God 101, and the co-author of two CDs of contemporary Jewish music.

Download or read book What is Soul written by Wolfgang Giegerich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-06 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rooted in the metaphysics of bygone times, the notion of soul in our Western tradition is packed with associations and meanings that are incompatible with the anthropological and naturalistic thinking that prevails in modernity. Whereas treatises of old conceived of the soul as an infinite, immaterial substance which was the ground of man’s hope for eternal salvation, modern psychology has for the most part discarded the concept in favor of more tangible touchstones such as the emotions, desires, and attachments which characterize man as a finite, bodily-existing positive fact. An exception to this trend has been the analytical psychology of C. G. Jung. Against the positivistic spirit of his times, Jung insisted upon a "‘psychology with soul,’ that is, a psychology based upon the hypothesis of an autonomous mind." In this volume, Wolfgang Giegerich once again takes up the Jungian commitment to a psychology with soul. Agreeing with Jung that the soul concept is indispensable for a truly psychological psychology, he supplements and re-orients the Jungian approach to both this concept and the phenomenology of the soul by means of a whole series of nuanced discussions that are as rigorous as they are thoroughgoing. The result is nothing short of a tour de force. Tarrying with the negative, Giegerich’s particular contribution resides in his showing the movement against the soul to be the soul’s own doing. In animus moments of itself, consciousness in the form of philosophy and Enlightenment reason turned upon itself as religion and metaphysics. Far from abolishing the soul, however, these incisive negations were themselves negated. As if dancing upon its own demise, the soul came home to itself, not as an invisible metaphysical substance, but more invisibly still as the logically negative evaporation of that substance into the form of subject, or even better said, into psychology.

Download or read book Shrapnel of the Soul and Redemption written by Pepper Martin and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is a personal reflection on the life of Pepper Martin, professional wrestler, football player, actor, producer, writer, husband, father, and grandfather and the guy next door. Pepper is a self-made man with little formal education whose life was marked by violence, controversy, physical pain, and emotional suffering. The shrapnel of his soul began for him at age seven and a half and his journey through redemption to the Lord will resonate with most anyone who recognizes the similarities in their own lives. The story of his childhood as the son of a Canadian bootlegger, life on the road as a professional athlete, the many women who crossed his path, the stars he befriended as an actor, his ties to organized crime both in the United States and Asia, the love of his family, and his eventful relationship with the Lord in his attempt to remove the shrapnel from his soul will astound the reader.

I had the hunger, the desire, and the determination, but I came up short.For many years, after I graduated it seemed like I got nothing out of my six years of total dedication to the sport. That the trade-off of what I gave and what I got in return to this sport was way out of whack.I hated wrestling for it.To put every ounce of your soul into something and to get nothing out of it in return was beyond my comprehension and I just could not justify it in my head.Until I had adversity in my life.And slowly but surely, I started realizing how much the sport of wrestling has given back to me.Much more than I ever knew.Dan Gable famously said, "Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easier."I would take it one step further and say, "Because I've wrestled, some things in life are possible." "6 Minutes Wrestling with Life" is much more than a wrestling book.It is a book on life, love, loss and belief.They don't call it the greatest sport on earth for no reason.

As he steps foot onto New York soil with not a word of English, his pockets stuffed with salami and provolone cheese and wearing a pair of shoes for the occasion, Antonio recalls the promise from his mother that in America he would find family members to take care of him and the trees blossoming with gold. This young Italian boy finds himself hit hard with a large dose of reality, obstacles at every turn. These obstacles would become the demons with which Antonio finds himself doing constant battle, but as fate would have it, he one day comes to realize that he is good at something. He finds by chance that he has a natural instinct and ability in the sport of wrestling. As his story unfolds, it would be the sport of wrestling that ignites a passion and guides him to the realization of his true potential, giving meaning to the struggle he and his family would endure in their journey from Southern Italy to the United States to create a better way of life.
