Download or read book Creative Dimensions of Suffering written by A. M. Ghadirian and published by Baha'i Publishing Trust. This book was released on 2009 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creative Dimensions of Suffering is an intriguing combination of psychiatry and spirituality that illustrates the power of creativity to treat suffering. An examination of the lives of many famous artists who suffered - including Van Gogh, Tchaikovsky, and Beethoven - gives insight into how they dealt with their adversity through creativity. Dr. Ghadirian explores how various conditions such as alcoholism, depression, bipolar disorder, and dementia can influence a person's creative impulse and how creativity and spirituality can help a person deal with trauma. He describes the courage of many other well-known figures, such as Helen Keller and Christopher Reeve, who were able to overcome their suffering and emerge victorious over daunting odds. Finally, drawing on principles found in the teachings of the Baha'i Faith, Ghadirian attempts to explain suffering, its place in human society, and how it can lead us to a closer, happier relationship with God, as well as a better relationship with ourselves and with others. Indeed, many of those who have suffered the most have found new meaning through adversity and have emerged victorious.

Download or read book Catholic to the Core written by Kathy Husak-Tarnacki and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-02-17 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholic to the Core was born out of a restlessness in the heart of the author. Since the early 1990s, Kathy Husak-Tarnacki felt a very distinct call from God to focus her skills and passions regarding education in a way that honored Christ in every way possible. The call was so clear to her that she approached her pastor at the time and asked for permission to open a school within the church. She had never been a principal and had never taken formal classes regarding administration, but she knew that when God calls, he equips. And that he did! The years that followed were filled with unexpected twists and turns in her professional career and her journey of faith, from Catholicism to a non-denominational setting, then back to the Catholic Church. Each step exposed her to new aspects of the possibilities and challenges present when you pursue Christ wholeheartedly, as well as highlighting how far schools have fallen from fulfilling their God-given purpose. These experiences filled her heart and mind with thoughts, questions, concerns, and possible solutions for the lukewarm atmospheres of many of our Catholic schools. In 2014 she felt a tugging to begin to write her thoughts down on paper, not sure exactly what the purpose would be. Now in 2022, she is blessed with the opportunity to publish what she wrote and share it with the hope that it will encourage conversation, reflection, and determined action.
