Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the most haunting stories I have ever read about the price we pay for the secrets we keep” from the award-winning author of How Will I Know You? (Julia Glass, national bestselling author). The Gretchen Question recounts a day in the life of Roberta Chase, who does not have much time left to make peace with her son ,who’s punishing her for withholding his father’s true identity from him. A single mother torn between protecting her only child or revealing herself fully to the people she loves most, Roberta finds herself at war with conflicting loyalties, increasing betrayal by her own body, the confused love she feels for her oldest friend, and a trauma from her past that casts a deep and possibly permanent shadow not only over her own life, but over the legacy she will bestow upon her son. Portraying the most intense and shameful moments of motherhood, and the things we leave unsaid even to those we want most to hear them, The Gretchen Question is a celebration of one woman’s private reckoning with the source of her life’s most profound pain―as well as its greatest pleasure. “A powerful and emotional ride with disorienting, satisfying turns and a stunning end. Treadway is masterful.” —Lily King, New York Times–bestselling author “Roberta’s . . . emotional journey is captured beautifully. Treadway powerfully captures one woman’s attempt to live a meaningful existence despite all that she has endured.” —Publishers Weekly “A thoughtful, and thought-provoking, meditation on love, loss, and legacy.” —Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book I Love Jesus But I Want to Die written by Sarah J. Robinson and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

It's just fun, cost-effective and easy to do!Do you found yourself up against Christmas with no gifts to speak of for anyone, and no time to go shopping? If you are like most people, unfortunately you are not lucky enough to live in a tropical paradise that produces abundant fruit and vegetables all year long. Chances are, you are already familiar with the concept of produce being "in season", and are therefore used to waiting months for your favorite foods to come back around. It's a cycle we have dealt with since human beings figured out agriculture, and it is also a riddle we have been trying to crack for just as long. Find out the Step by Step Process to Make the Best Fruit Canning Also, you'll discover..Great Recipes of Fruit CanningLearn Great Tips and Tricks on How to Make Fruit Canning PerfectlyAnd much more!Table of Contents Introduction: If You Can Boil Water, You Can Do This! Know that even having an unbelievably disastrous start to your new canning hobby doesn't mean you are doomed to be bad at it forever. In fact, once you make one good batch, you pretty much have it down, and can keep up momentum from there. You might mess up, you might drop jars, you might overdo it on the lemon juice, but it's all a learning experience. Chapter 1 - How Does Your Garden Grow? Plan Out Your Canning Calendar.It goes without saying that your best course of action is to strike while the iron is hot, and take advantage of food preservation as the seasons permit. For that reason, depending on where you live, winter might be a great time to start getting your plan in place. Chapter 2 - Beginner Crash Course: Pickles!One of the easiest things to can at home, especially when first starting out, is a jar (or three, or four) of crunchy, dill pickles. Chapter 3 - Fruit Preserves: How to Fill Your Shelves All Summer, and Eat All Winter.Now that you have had a little experience with putting food in jars the safe way, it's time to up your game a little bit by tackling fruit preserves. If you have nostalgic memories of homemade blackberry jam, or if you have ever decided that yes - the chutney you just tried at the farmer's market is definitely worth $10 per jar, then prepare to be amazed at what you can do in your own kitchen.These home canned fruit preserves will be a far cry from the thin, see-through grape jelly you get at the local diner. These will be rich both in flavor and nutrients, and unlike store bought jams, you get to have the final say on which ingredients go into making them. Chapter 4 - Veggie Preserves: Advanced (and Safe!) Canning Techniques.Fruit is so easy to preserve largely due to it's natural acidity. There are three components that make your fruit preserves gel; and they are sugar, pectin and acid. When you are lacking in one, the other two can be stepped up to take over. After that, it's just a matter of letting nature (and chemistry) take its course. Typically with relatively little effort, your boiling fruit gets itself into a preserved state for you. You can rely on your fruit preserves being safe thanks to their natural acid levels, and any pesky microbes that might have slipped in there, can easily be boiled out of existence. Heat wins again! Chapter 5 - Frugality Tips and Tricks: How to Can on the Cheap.Deciding to get into any new hobby comes with those dreaded "start up costs". Ask any knitter, quilter, painter, gardener or cake decorator and they can probably tell you some horror stories about that first receipt from the craft store. It stands to reason that if you are beginning something from scratch, you are going to have to bite the bullet and buy a few things - after all, there is nothing like having the right tools for the job.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major General John Fulton Reynolds was destined to become one of the most famous officers of America's Civil War. He was greatly admired and respected by the men he commanded and by the men who commanded him. President Abraham Lincoln even wanted Reynolds to lead his vast Army of the Potomac. Fate, however, had different plans for the general. He was shot and killed on the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, taking with him a secret so deep, not even his close family members knew about it. The secret was discovered only when his body was being prepared for burial. Mysterious objects were found hanging from small chains around his neck. It turns out General Reynolds, who was stern, aloof, and highly principled, had a hidden love affair with a woman much younger than him. Why they had kept their love so private is embroiled with the intrigue of an era driven by war and prejudice so intense, it split the country apart. Their story of true love found and tragically lost is the story of a nation trying to find purpose and meaning among unbridled hatred and bigotry.

Book It s OK That You re Not OK

Download or read book It s OK That You re Not OK written by Megan Devine and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2017-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging conventional wisdom on grief, a pioneering therapist offers a new resource for those experiencing loss When a painful loss or life-shattering event upends your world, here is the first thing to know: there is nothing wrong with grief. “Grief is simply love in its most wild and painful form,” says Megan Devine. “It is a natural and sane response to loss.” So, why does our culture treat grief like a disease to be cured as quickly as possible? In It’s OK That You’re Not OK, Megan Devine offers a profound new approach to both the experience of grief and the way we try to help others who have endured tragedy. Having experienced grief from both sides—as both a therapist and as a woman who witnessed the accidental drowning of her beloved partner—Megan writes with deep insight about the unspoken truths of loss, love, and healing. She debunks the culturally prescribed goal of returning to a normal, “happy” life, replacing it with a far healthier middle path, one that invites us to build a life alongside grief rather than seeking to overcome it. In this compelling and heartful book, you’ll learn: • Why well-meaning advice, therapy, and spiritual wisdom so often end up making it harder for people in grief • How challenging the myths of grief—doing away with stages, timetables, and unrealistic ideals about how grief should unfold—allows us to accept grief as a mystery to be honored instead of a problem to solve • Practical guidance for managing stress, improving sleep, and decreasing anxiety without trying to “fix” your pain • How to help the people you love—with essays to teach us the best skills, checklists, and suggestions for supporting and comforting others through the grieving process Many people who have suffered a loss feel judged, dismissed, and misunderstood by a culture that wants to “solve” grief. Megan writes, “Grief no more needs a solution than love needs a solution.” Through stories, research, life tips, and creative and mindfulness-based practices, she offers a unique guide through an experience we all must face—in our personal lives, in the lives of those we love, and in the wider world. It’s OK That You’re Not OK is a book for grieving people, those who love them, and all those seeking to love themselves—and each other—better.
