Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before her plane even touches down in Newfoundland, Cheryl is already plotting her escape. She knows life on this rock will be no better than it was in the other places she’s been forced to live ever since her parents launched their cross-Canada tour. The unwilling spectator of her father’s morbid fascination with “dying cultures,” Cheryl has seen more than her fair share of towns so depressing they could haunt your dreams. His decision to study the defunct fishing industry in St. John’s is Cheryl’s breaking point—this city girl is more determined than ever to get back to the concrete, the buzz, and the bright lights of Montreal. Will Cheryl’s cold, goth exterior and her refusal to embrace a new life cut her off from those who love her?
Download or read book I d Like You More If You Were More like Me written by John Ortberg and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I’d Like You More If You Were More like Me takes on one of life’s most important questions: How can I get closer to God and other people? We were created for deep connections. When people have deep connections, says John Ortberg, they win in life. When they don’t have deep connections, they cannot win in life. I’d Like You More if You Were More like Me offers help in overcoming one of the biggest obstacles to making deep connections: the fact that we’re so different. Different from God and different from each other. The good news is that connectedness is not based on similarity, but on shared experiences. When one person invites another to share an experience, they’re connected. It can be sharing a beautiful sunset or a meal, having a great conversation over cup of coffee, going for walk, or even teasing somebody. And when we share those same experiences with God, we get closer to him, too. God wants to connect with us—so much that he sent his son to live as a human being. God took on flesh and shared every human experience. So we don’t have to wonder what a close relationship with God looks like anymore. An intimate relationship with God and other people doesn’t have to be a cliché, it can be a daily way of life.
Download or read book Live like me and you ll be happy written by Luigi Lupo and published by Luigi Pellegrini Editore. This book was released on 2023-06-19 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface by Paola Severini Melograni Translation into English by Ferruccio Bruno I always thought about my son as a delicate flower that needs to be loved, protected and cared for, and that's what I intend to do as long as I'm breathing. But I also know this is not enough. A flower, tenacious as it may be, could hardly survive on its own. The wind will batter it, dispersing its petals. The heat will wither it and the chill of the night will freeze-burn it. Eventually, weed will choke it out. If, on the other hand, it grows surrounded by other flowers, different in form and colours, its beauty and fragrance would be enhanced by their presence. Not only that; its flower friends will form a barrier around it, preventing weeds and inclemencies from withering it. That's the purpose of this book: to encourage those who, like me, have the future of these “special children” at heart, so that a flowerbed of solidarity may blossom around them, helping them to face the hardest challenges of life.
