Download or read book More Christ More Me written by Eunice Lee and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, the beliefs about God we take for granted need to be left behind. As a young adult, a conflict with her parents forced Eunice Lee to confront and choose between two incompatible beliefs. On the one hand, obedience to God had always been synonymous with obedience to her parents. But on the other, God’s authority was supreme, and now she felt God guiding her to act contrary to her parents’ wishes. This collision left Eunice confused, depressed, and questioning what she knew about God. She fell into toxic, exhausting cycles while serving in the church, unable to understand why doing everything “right” left her depleted and guilt-ridden. Where was the abundant life God had promised? Little did she know how much her paradigm for faithful Christian living came from influences inconsistent with the voice of God—even within the church! Slowly, eventually, God led Eunice toward a more robust theology. She deconstructed faulty old narratives and built new ones that propelled her toward a healthier self, more balanced relationships, and a freeing faith—one more closely aligned with God’s intentions. Eunice offers her story because she believes that God wants this for you too.

From friends and lovers to blood family and chosen family, this “elegant masterpiece” (Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Hunger) asks what more expansive definitions of love might offer us all. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME, THE GUARDIAN, GARDEN & GUN "Hauser builds their life's inventory out of deconstructed personal narratives, resulting in a reading experience that's rich like a complicated dessert—not for wolfing down but for savoring in small bites." —The New York Times “Clever, heartfelt, and wrenching.” —Time “Brilliant.” —Oprah Daily Ten days after calling off their wedding, CJ Hauser went on an expedition to Texas to study the whooping crane. After a week wading through the gulf, they realized they'd almost signed up to live someone else's life. What if you released yourself from traditional narratives of happiness? What if you looked for ways to leave room for the unexpected? In Hauser’s case, this meant dissecting pop culture touchstone, from The Philadelphia Story to The X Files, to learn how not to lose yourself in a relationship. They attended a robot convention, contemplated grief at John Belushi’s gravesite, and officiated a wedding. Most importantly, they mapped the difference between the stories we’re asked to hold versus those we choose to carry. Told with the late-night barstool directness of your wisest, most bighearted friend, The Crane Wife is a book for everyone whose path doesn't look the way they thought it would; for everyone learning to find joy in the not-knowing and to build a new sort of life story, a new sort of family, a new sort of home to live in.

Download or read book Journey of a Thousand Miles written by Lang Lang and published by Aurum. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey of a Thousand Miles tells the remarkable story of a boy who sacrificed almost everything – family, financial security, childhood and his reputation in China’s insular classical music world – to fulfil his promise as a classical pianist. Lang Lang was born in Shenyang in north-eastern China just after the end of the Cultural Revolution. He began piano lessons at three years old and by age ten had been awarded a place at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing. In order to continue his studies he moved thousands of miles from home, living with his exacting father in a cramped, shared apartment, while his mother stayed at home to earn the money to pay his fees. At fifteen he moved to the United States to take up a scholarship at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia; by nineteen he was selling out Carnegie Hall. His tutor and mentor Daniel Barenboim was perhaps the first to describe him as ‘extraordinarily talented’; today his assessment is shared by millions. Now in adulthood, Lang Lang tours relentlessly, delighting sell-out audiences with his trademark flamboyance and showmanship. Journey of a Thousand Miles is a tale of heartbreak, drama and ultimately triumph. His inspiring story demonstrates the courage and self-sacrifice required to achieve artistic greatness.
