They limit your ability to share what you truly feel and think in the present." ABUSE: "Most people have come to expect verbal and emotional abuse and therefore tolerate it. Such abuse is hurtful, and leads to disconnection and pain in isolation." THE SEXES: "Understanding some fundamental differences between men and women goes a long way towards improving communication and behavior in relationships."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable debut mystery from the award-winning author of the 2003 St. Martin's Press/Private Eye Writers of America Prize for Best First Private Eye Novel. Michael Koryta's Tonight I Said Goodbye marks the emergence of a stunning new voice in crime fiction. With its edge-of-your-seat pacing, finely drawn characters, and rock-solid prose, Tonight I Said Goodbye would seem to be the work of a grizzled pro; the fact that the author is just twenty-one years old makes it all the more amazing. Investigator Wayne Weston is found dead of an apparent suicide in his home in an upscale Cleveland suburb, and his wife and six-year-old daughter are missing. Weston's father insists that private investigators Lincoln Perry and Joe Pritchard take the case to exonerate his son and find his granddaughter and daughter-in-law. As they begin to work they discover there is much more to the situation than has been described in the prevalent media reports. There are rumors of gambling debts and extortion, and a group of Russians with ties to organized crime who don't appreciate being investigated--a point they make clear with baseball bats. With some assistance from newspaper reporter Amy Ambrose, Perry and Pritchard believe they are making swift progress. But then they are warned off the investigation by a millionaire real estate tycoon and the FBI. Just when they feel they are closing in on a possible source of answers, another murder forces them to change direction in the case. Perry travels to a resort town in South Carolina and there he finds more than one game being played, and all of them are deadly. The stakes quickly become very personal for Perry, and it's clear that there will be no walking away from this case. In a debut that has already garnered praise from some of today's top writers, Michael Koryta immediately establishes himself as a standard bearer for the next generation of crime writers. Tonight I Said Goodbye is a 2005 Edgar Award Nominee for Best First Novel.

Download or read book All I Said Was written by Stan Kiste and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-02-24 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After thirty-plus years of youth ministry it would be easy to imagine that you’ve seen it all—and that there is nothing left to learn. The truth is, however, that if we just pay attention, God loves to surprise us with unexpected moments of joy and humor that serve as opportunities to learn new lessons, remind us of those we may have forgotten, and, most importantly, remember why we got into ministry in the first place. These experiences can also serve as comforting reminders that we’re not in charge. Knowing that the success of our ministry does not depend on us should be a relief and remembering that God uses broken and flawed people like us to build his kingdom should be an inspiration. This little book of ministry mishaps, miscalculations, and marvels is a reminder that delight and wonder abound when we are faithful and obedient to God’s calling.
