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.

Download or read book Something Funny Happened written by Elmer Mulhausen and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of Elmer's poems were getting lost so family and friends urged him to write a book to preserve them. Finally in 2007, Elmer decided to write the book. But rather than just preserve the poems, he decided to also include vignettes of memories as a child of the Great Depression, World War II, career, second courtship and life as an innkeeper. The memories reflect Elmer's strict Christian upbringing, years of rebellion, then a return to his spiritual roots. The poems sandwiched between the vignettes run from the nearly risque to spiritual. Most of the old stories set to verse are meant to amuse you and Elmer's memories may remind you of your own."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is not fair. Even though we are taught to be fair to others and we expect to be treated fairly, that is not always the case. It's a concept that may work when dividing toys or candy amongst children or being selected top seller on a business team, but it doesn't work when it means watching the love of our life die from brain cancer. "Walking the Tar Pit" is about the path through the process of grief and understanding that life is not fair when it comes to loss. The book is a collection of essays reflecting on the pain of grief, as well as the glimmers of light and sources of strength through the darkness and depth of the Tar Pit. It includes beloved Bible verses and inspirational quotes as well as personal letters from the author to important people in Karin's life, her sons, her "girls," her parents, and the rest of the family, friends, and the community. The book concludes with the tribute Karin presented in honor of her beloved husband, Fred, at his funeral. We all enter the Tar Pit for different reasons, but we all must make our way through it to successfully navigate the grief process. The Tar Pit is one widow's path through the pit to her destination on the other side.

Download or read book e Jeanne 2004 Part Two July through December written by Jeanne Halsey and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: e-Jeanne was a precursor of currently popular ?blogs, ? although we called her an ?e-zine.? She was assembled early in the morning (right after my morning devotions ? in fact, I realize that many of my morning devotions somehow crept into the e-Editorials), and then forwarded by e-mail to over 300 people all around the world. I did this two or three days a week for 10 years. Like I said, maybe I am a little crazy. ... 2004 was a lengthy year, filled with commentary about the impending American Presidential Election (yes, George W. Bush won again), fluctuating health issues, and much sharing of prayer requests and praise reports among the faithful and beloved Readers. 2004 was so long that I had to split it into two books; this is Part Two, covering July through December. Like its sister books, e-Jeanne: 2004 (Part Two) comes out looking like a fair-sized phone book; you?ll need strong arms and strong hands to hold it while reading ... and I strongly suggest you have a sturdy bookmark.
