Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life has a way of breaking us into pieces. It can chip away at the soul with each loss, failure, and disappointment. And with every chipped away piece, it can leave us sinking deeper and deeper into a pit of discouragement and despair. Grace in a Shattered Place offers comfort to the weary and discouraged soul as it opens the door to a new perspective on shattered dreams, shattered hopes, and even shattered faith. From the very beginning, Stephanie breaks down the wall of spiritual clichs and comes directly for the readers heart. Through her words, she takes the reader by the hand, looks them in the eyes, and makes a pact to just be real. From the place of real, Stephanie empathizes with the readers brokenness while she gently ushers the reader back to a place of hope by suggesting that grace isnt only found in the getting up, but in the looking up.

Discover: • practical steps to move forward when your plans don’t go according to plan • how to clarify which goals are right for you to pursue • what to do when dreams seem to come true for everyone but you • the unexpected gains that can arise from unwanted pain • how to know when it’s time to let go of a dream—and what to do with the space left behind Life is filled with unmet expectations, disrupted dreams, uncertainty, and in-between seasons.

Download or read book This Too Shall Last written by K.J. Ramsey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not a before-and-after story. Our culture treats suffering like a problem to fix, a blight to hide, or the sad start of a transformation story. We silently, secretly wither under the pressure of living as though suffering is a predicament we can avoid or annihilate by working hard enough or having enough faith. When your prayers for healing haven't been answered, the fog of depression isn't lifting, your marriage is ending in divorce, or grief won't go away, it's easy to feel you've failed God and, worse, he's failed you. If God loves us, why does he allow us to hurt? Over a decade ago chronic illness plunged therapist and writer K.J. Ramsey straight into this paradox. Before her illness, faith made sense. But when pain came and never left, K.J. had to find a way across the widening canyon that seemed to separate God's goodness from her excruciating circumstances. She wanted to conquer suffering. Instead, she encountered the God who chose it. She wanted to make pain past-tense. Instead, God invited her into a bigger story. This Too Shall Last offers an antidote to our cultural idolatry of effort and ease. Through personal story and insights from neuroscience and theology, Ramsey invites us to let our tears become lenses of the wonder that before God ever rescues us, he stands in solidarity with us. We are all mid-story in circumstances we did not choose, wondering when our hard things will end and where grace will come if they don’t. We don't need to make suffering a before-and-after story. Together we can encounter the grace that enters the middle of our stories, where living with suffering that lingers means receiving God's presence that lasts.

Download or read book Embracing Brokenness written by Alan E. Nelson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embracing Brokenness is a journey to healing and wholeness, by teaching how God can use our disappointments to grow us, if we're willing to embrace them. Alan E. Nelson, Ed.D., studied the process of brokenness through scriptures historical and contemporary leaders, along with this own faith journey. While few talk about times of brokenness openly, nearly everyone experiences them deeply. Instead of resisting the pain and avoiding the things that cause them, the counter intuitive solution is that God often uses brokenness to grow our souls. Embracing our brokenness improves healing and catalyzes maturity, resulting in new growth that will only happen through this embrace. People who resist brokenness become the walking wounded and they are all around us, becoming bitter versus better and extending their pain to others. This book is a truly healing read for those who are experiencing broken dreams, healthy, relations, finances, and feeling despondent in general. Hope sprouts new, as you read these contemporary words of wisdom that have aided people throughout time.

Download or read book Real Power written by Janet O. Hagberg and published by Sheffield Publishing. This book was released on 2002-09-02 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Janet O. Hagberg has written a dynamic book about power -real, personal power- for forward-looking people and organizations who want to harness their own power for the common good. "I wrote this book," says Hagberg, "to transform the way we think about power and leadership. It takes people on a journey beyond achievement and sucess to a stance in which power comes from their inner core and they lead from their souls." There is no doubt that the world is ready for a new model of leadership. In this third edition, Janet Hagberg addresses much that she has learned from her readers. The result is a deepening of the descriptions of each stage, a new way to think about the dark side of each stage, new stories of each stage derived from her readers, a connection to the spirituality expressed at each stage, as well a description of "The Wall" between Stages Four and Five. Throughout the book, the author adds more of her personal story to illustrate her experiences and observations of each of the stages of power.

Their trouble begins when they take in Zachary Black, an antisocial misfit with no conscience and a burning hatred for those around him. Assuming the boys malevolence to be a cry for help, the priest focuses all his attention and efforts on Black, who has neither the desire to be helped, nor the intention to be reformed.

Download or read book Surviving On Broken Pieces written by S. Renee Brown and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a message for those who are broken, for those who have lost hope, and those who are trying to find their way. In the pages of this book, you will see a mirrored reflection and an instant replay of a not-so-favorite movie entitled "YOU!" As you begin to read through the pages, you'll find that there is someone else like you: someone who has been broken, whose life had been torn apart, whose heart was unable to forgive. A person who had not been able to truly love, not even herself, because of the hurt, bitterness, and anger that comes from a broken life. If you are marred by the situations of your past, if your circumstances have you so confused that you don't know which way to turn, if your heart has been broken and you can't seem to mend it, then you are not alone. I was that person who felt like all hope was gone. I felt like no one cared if I lived or died. My emotions were all over the place at times because all I really wanted was someone who would love me. After years of searching, I was introduced to Jesus, and the broken pieces were mended back together. Truly, my life has taken on a new beginning. God gave me a new day just when I thought it was all over, that all hope was gone. I saw myself as a broken glass, shattered, spread out into tiny pieces, I began to pray, to cry out to God to let it all be over: "I can't take it any more Lord. It's so hard. It's too much to bear," as I sobbed tearfully, asking God to take the pain away, to take me away! It was at that time that God let me know it wasn't time for departure, but it was time for restoration. God stepped in. He took those broken, shattered pieces of my life, put them back together, and restored purpose to my life.

Download or read book Embracing Israel Palestine written by Michael Lerner and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major modern conundrum is how the Arab/Israel conflict remains unresolved and, seemingly, unresolvable. In this inspirational book, Rabbi Michael Lerner suggests that a change in consciousness is crucial. With clarity and honesty, he examines how the mutual demonization and discounting of each sides’ legitimate needs drive the debate, and he points to new ways of thinking that can lead to a solution. Lerner emphasizes that this new approach to the issue requires giving primacy to love, kindness, and generosity. It calls for challenging the master narratives in both Israel and Palestine as well as the false idea that “homeland security” can be achieved through military, political, economic, or media domination. Lerner makes the case that a lasting peace must prioritize helping people on all sides (including Europe and the U.S.) and that real security is best achieved through an ethos of caring and generosity toward “the other.” As many spiritual leaders have taught, problems like these cannot be solved at the same level at which they originated—one must seek higher ground, and that becomes a central task for anyone who wants a sustainable peace. Embracing Israel/Palestine is written for those looking for positive, practical solutions to this ongoing dilemma.

Download or read book Broken Pieces written by Ardary Taylor and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the plight of one womans struggles in an unfair fight to move from brokenness to restoration and to break free from Satans trap of darkness and move into the Lords marvelous light. Darkness is a reality and a broken life is real; many people refuse to believe that brokenness could happen to them because it carries the label of dysfunction. Satan rules the darkness and everything thats attached to it, including your denial and brokenness. The longer it takes for you to admit where you are, and that you need help, the longer it will take for the Lord to rescue you. Be true to yourself, even if you are not true to anyone else. If you find yourself in a dark place, you are being driven by Satan; if you dont take immediate action, he will lure you deeper and deeper into his pit, where all entries are locked and you no longer have the freedom to walk out. Satan has his way in darkness; he slaps you around and gives you ridiculous orders. Even though you realize that, by carrying them out, you will hurt yourself and others, you carry them out anyway with perfection. This book offers spiritual insight and solutions to breaking free from a self-inflicted past that captured your attention and gave Satan the opportunity to attack you like a lion attacks his prey.

Download or read book Humpy Dumpty Gets It Together written by Arlene Arnold and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-01-02 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transform your feelings of separation, loneliness and confusion into clarity, wholeness and vitality. Arlene Arnold takes her 18 years of experience as a Certified Spiritual Guide and Healing Facilitator and shares simple techniques for discovering who you really are, what you're good at, and what you're here to do. The Humpty Dumpty story, a sequel to the original, contains an easy process that allows you to mend your "broken pieces" and begin to enjoy life. "I first started telling the Story to my clients so they would understand the healing process of reclaiming joy. Broken pieces give you a false picture of who you are ¬- you are not guilt, sadness or loneliness. Your feelings are real, but the picture you have of yourself only looks that way because, when you get stuck with repeating unwanted thoughts, you're seeing through a distorted lens." - Arlene In the Humpty Dumpty story you'll find tools to easily release what's holding you back. When that happens, you bring home the pieces of yourself that are hanging onto emotional experiences. You reclaim the parts of you that have taken on thoughts and beliefs from others that don't resonate with who you are. You can then put together who you are right now! This book is deliberately short: 42 pages. It's a quick read with easy-to-follow exercises. "Arlene's book helped me clear the doubt and stagnation I was feeling and allowed me to continue my new business with confidence and joyful trust. I highly recommend her work!" - Eduardo Alarcon "Thank you so much for your guidance, enlightenment, and compassionate heart. What a blessing you've been in my life!" - Kristina Craig "Unlike Humpty Dumpty, I didn't even know I was in pieces. I just thought I was flaky; it was just how I was. By using Arlene's 'tools,' I reassembled my pieces. As a result of this process, I gained more confidence and clear mindedness. I felt successful in a way I had not experienced before." - Marian Russell "The message in this book relates to all whether they are advanced in their spiritual work, just beginning or have not a clue. It is a human message related to our current life of toils, troubles and hope for a better life. It is light, funny, and very understandable. It will stir the heart that is ready for this teaching. I think it is a very important work for our age." - Darlene Jaeger

Download or read book Broken Pieces written by Gwendolyn Denise Pierce and published by . This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a book written out of love and the desire to help people see and feel hope. It gives descriptions of a lifetime. Often, there are situations women face that transcend race, but are, unfortunately, enhanced because of sin in the world and our lack of understanding who we truly are. The situations that you lived through are a testimony to God's grace and mercy. This book gives hope and direction to women who are experiencing horrific situations. It is a story of hope, reminding those who have not experienced this degree of hardships to have a sense of gratefulness for God's mercy. It also enlightens us to the plight of some of our sisters, so that we can be a light in the darkness and be willing to be Christ's ambassadors and to help someone in need (which at times is ourselves). God has already equipped us with the Word for us to gain access to His Holy Covenants and to have authority, dominion, and power against the darkness of the adversary, to be armed with the skills, wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to embrace prayer and fasting, and to have the strength and power to forgive when suffering or struggling with hurt and pain. Dr. Pierce provides a precise breakdown of the structure and principles of Satan's strongholds and schemes, which are used to keep you in bondage, dealing with the generational curses in the family, the church, and the government, with racial tension and discrimination, and with your emotions, mind, body, and soul, whether you are in danger mentally, physically, spiritually, financially, or sexually. Dr. Pierce explains how God will provide and protect you from every attack. SATAN IS ARMED TO STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY, but GOD'S PROMISES CANNOT BE BROKEN!
