Download or read book Beyond the Cradle written by Anne Stanton and published by Beak In Hill Books. This book was released on 2022-01-22 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robyn Thomas feels cranky, discouraged, and thirsty as she plods up an unfamiliar mountain road bordering The Monongahela National Forest under a blazing July sun. She fuels her angst by kicking rocks and forming thoughts of revenge on her parents for dragging her out of NYC and depositing her into nowhere, which includes the newly purchased house down the road, the one Robyn vows she’ll never call home. It’s the worst birthday of her life. In a rush of unexpected movement, a girl she describes as an Olympian goddess descends from the heights (with a tagalong boy) to swiftly overturn each of Robyn’s complaints; but Samantha Sticker’s simple outpourings don’t stop there. No. Life is waiting for Robyn, and Samantha is just the girl to introduce her to its fullness. Question is, will Robyn take hold? ~ ~. ~ Beyond the Cradle is a Literary Fiction novel that rests easily in the hands of ardent teen readers, and adults alike. The story opens in the mid-nineteen-eighties, extends into the early nineties, and briefly scrolls back into the forties. Its narrator, Robyn Thomas, glides through several of the world’s largest cities, but only one place captures her soul, a mountain community in West Virginia. It’s not so much the place that moves her, as the people who’ve been influenced by the place over generations; for Robyn, one person stands out in particular, Samantha Sticker. The novel encompasses two coming of age stories of homeschooling girls from different family dynamics, dimensions, and worldviews. One arrives nearly fully packaged to walk the earth with surety and grace; the other is obstinate by nature and, even though brilliant, holds false assumptions about herself and life in general. Heart-warming truths run throughout the story, such as, the beauty we can find in family relationships and anchored friendships; the rewards received in practicing sexual abstinence before marriage; the sense of wonder discovered through and within nature; how homeschooling is an honored way of life; and how life choices can add or detract from wisdom's song. Movements within the storyline address the various traps we are prone to enter, mostly unaware, and how God gently comes alongside to uncover those places, if our hearts yearn for true freedom while we're still here on this cradle, called earth. "This story [has] a unique voice and tone. It's a delight to the senses and the soul." ~ Chris Fabry, author of War Room
Download or read book Hope Beyond an Empty Cradle written by Hallie Scott and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tens of thousands of women and families every year lose a baby to miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death. The statistics are sobering--between 10% and 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, 1% in stillbirth, and nearly 23,000 babies die before their first birthday--but statistics alone miss the depth of the hurt. Each loss is personal and devastating. No woman is prepared to lose a baby, and caregivers are often unaware of how best to help. In Hope Beyond an Empty Cradle therapist Hallie Scott first shares her own story, as a mother whose only child, Abigail, was stillborn, and then leads readers through a healing process that makes space for heartbreak, despair, guilt, questions, and anger. Life is never the same in the wake of the loss, but a new normal is possible. The book will be a welcome resource for families who have lost a child, as well as for those seeking to care for them in their traumatic grief.

Download or read book Beyond the Sea written by Felan Parker and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bioshock series looms large in the industry and culture of video games for its ambitious incorporation of high-minded philosophical questions and retro-futuristic aesthetics into the ultraviolent first-person shooter genre. Beyond the Sea marks ten years since the release of the original game with an interdisciplinary collection of essays on Bioshock, Bioshock 2, and Bioshock Infinite. Simultaneously lauded as landmarks in the artistic growth of the medium and criticized for their compromised vision and politics, the Bioshock games have been the subject of significant scholarly and critical discussion. Moving past well-trodden debates, Beyond the Sea broadens the conversation by putting video games in dialogue with a diverse range of other disciplines and cultural forms, from parenting psychology to post-humanism, from Thomas Pynchon to German expressionist cinema. Offering bold new perspectives on a canonical series, Beyond the Sea is a timely contribution to our understanding of the aesthetics, the industry, and the culture of video games. Contributors include Daniel Ante-Contreras (Miracosta), Luke Arnott (Western Ontario), Betsy Brey (Waterloo), Patrick Brown (Iowa), Michael Fuchs (Graz), Jamie Henthorn (Catawba), Brendan Keogh (Queensland), Cameron Kunzelman (Georgia), Cody Mejeur (Michigan State), Matthew Thomas Payne (Notre Dame), Gareth Schott (Waikato), Karen Schrier (Marist), Sarah Stang (York/Ryerson), Sarah Thorne (Carleton), John Vanderhoef (California State, Dominguez Hills), Matthew Wysocki (Flagler), Jordan R.

Download or read book Before and Beyond the Big Society written by Joseph Forde and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2022-05-26 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Milbank's theology has shaped much modern political thinking both within and without the Church. In Before and Beyond the 'Big Society', Joseph Forde presents the first study devoted exclusively to John Milbank's theology of welfare, and how it has influenced policy in the Church of England since 2008. By examining the favourable response the Church gave to the 'Big Society' project in 2010-12, Forde shows that Milbank's Blue Socialist fingerprint increasingly dominates. However, this theology has not evolved in a vacuum and Forde expertly places it in its historical and theoretical context. He offers a detailed critical discussion of Milbank's own critique of what has been the mainstream (Temple) Anglican theology of welfare in the Church of England since the 1940s, and a fresh contribution to the assessment of Anglican social theology. Finally, he demonstrates how Milbank's ideas have been furthered by other influential Anglicans. It is this influence that will carry the greatest implications for the Church of England's policy on welfare going forward, making this study relevant to all who care about its contribution to the provision of welfare.
