Book excerpt: They think nothing can tear their bond apart, until a long-buried secret threatens to destroy everything. Every year they have met up for a vacation, but their time away is much more than just a bit of fun. Over time, it has become a lifesaver, as each of them struggles with life’s triumphs and tragedies. Sophie, Emily, Amy and Melissa have been best friends since they were girls. They have seen each other through everything—from Sophie’s private fear that she doesn’t actually want to be a mother despite having two kids, to Amy’s perfect-on-the-outside marriage that starts to reveal troubling warning signs, to Melissa’s spiraling alcoholism, to questions that are suddenly bubbling up around the paternity of Emily’s son. But could a lie that spans just as long as their friendship be the thing that tears them apart?

Download or read book Our Life Is Love written by Marcelle Martin and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Life is Love describes the transformational spiritual journey of the first Quakers, who turned to the Light of Christ within and allowed it to be their guide. Many Friends today use different language, but are still called to make the same journey. In our time people seeking deeper access to the profound teachings of Christianity want more than just beliefs, they want direct experience. Focusing on ten elements of the spiritual journey, this book is a guide to a Spirit-filled life that affects this world. Quakers in the seventeenth century and today provide examples of people and communities living in the midst of the world whose radical understanding of Christ's teachings led them to become powerful agents of social change. The book offers a simple, clear explanation of the spiritual journey that is suitable not only for Quakers, but for all Christians, and for seekers wanting to better understand our spiritual experience and the fullness of God's call to us. The book would make an excellent focus for study groups. Marcelle Martin has led workshops at retreat centers and Quaker meetings across the United States. She served for four years as the resident Quaker Studies teacher at Pendle Hill and was a core teacher in the School of the Spirit program, The Way of Ministry. She is the author of the Pendle Hill pamphlets Invitation to a Deeper Communion and Holding One Another in the Light. In 2013 she was the Mullen Writing Fellow at Earlham School of Religion while working on this book.

Book excerpt: OUR LIFE WITH OUR LADY'S INFLUENCEFor the first time in the history of Marian writing, here is a book that co-ordinates and integrates the dogmatic truths underlying devotion to Mary with a solid, unsentimental, and balanced application of these truths to the life of the soul.The author lucidly demonstrates that, since God has given Mary an all-pervading place in His scheme for the redemption of man, it follows that if we wish to grow in love of God-the goal of all spiritual striving-we will give Mary a corresponding place in our soul-life.This book shows us how to achieve such fusion of God-centered and Mary-informed spirituality. It provides a basic orientation in ascetic principles and explains the classic steps in spiritual and mystical growth, drawing always on the texts of Scripture, the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, the great commentators, and the modern papal pronouncements.OUR LADY'S PART IN OUR SPIRITUAL LIFEThis is a fundamental text of Marian spirituality, for private study, for class and study-club use, for aid in spiritual direction.

Download or read book School Was Our Life written by Jane Roland Martin and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-06 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personal accounts of the early days of New York City’s Little Red School House, analysis of its success, and a look at the future of education. The late 1930s and early 1940s were the peak of progressive education in the United States, and Elisabeth Irwin’s Little Red School House in New York City was iconic in that movement. For the first time, stories and recollections from students who attended Little Red during this era have been collected by author Jane Roland Martin. Now in their late eighties, these classmates can still sing the songs they learned in elementary school and credit the progressive education they loved with shaping their outlooks and life trajectories. Martin frames these stories from the former students “tell it like it was” point of view with philosophical commentary, bringing to light the underpinnings of the kind of progressive education employed at Little Red and commenting critically on the endeavor. In a time when the role of the arts in education and public schooling itself are under attack in the United States, Martin makes a case for a different style of education designed for the defense of democracy and expresses hope that an education like hers can become an opportunity for all. “This sparkling, intimate, and delightfully written memoir demonstrates conclusively how and why elementary education should be designed to fit the natural growth of the human mind.” —E.O. Wilson author of The Social Conquest of Earth “Drawing on her own experiences 75 years ago and those of her classmates, researchers and many others, [Jane Roland Martin] has made it clear why we, even though she and the rest of us privileged to have gone through Little Red can’t write cursive and never had to memorize facts and figures, are “The Lucky Ones.” She draws on memories of everything from class trips, to writing poetry, to group singing to explain why much of the conventional literature about progressive education has missed the story. If it’s too late for you to apply (or send your children and/or grandchildren) to Little Red, read School Was Our Life: Remembering Progressive Education. It’s the next best thing.” —Victor S. Navasky, publisher emeritus of The Nation

Download or read book Our Life Beyond Mkultra written by Elisa E and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Life Beyond MKULTRA, Books 1 and 2, is an insider's story of intentionally designed trauma-based mind kontrol Multiple Personality Disorder and her resultant use involving government, military, intelligence, religious and corporate organizations and institutions, as well as the insidious kontrol of humanity by a eons old cross-dimensional species involved in hybridization and cloning. The demi-gods and Nephilim of old have a predominant role in her story, having encountered them repeatedly in the altered consciousness of trauma-based mind kontrol programming as well as in full waking consciousness. It is a journey through the mind fragmenting "black tech" being utilized by a bloodline network of human victims to these malevolent beings who are now its minions and perpetrators. Elisa's is a story of abilities attained through this process some of which still remain well into her deep deprogramming years which began in April 2008. Her story takes you through hybridization, cloning and cybernization, though not in the future, instead already here and successfully implemented in the black projects of high level total mind kontrol. Elisa contends she is a hybrid, preconception, and in the late 1980s became aware of her clones. What's more, she speaks to the current state of mind kontrol technology in use as involving not only hybridization and cloning, but post-birth cybernization and the design of human looking beings who are actually soulless, and that some already walk among us. Our Life Beyond MKULTRA is contained in 2 Books to provide the perspective of not only the horrendous programming and "on task" years running decades, but the life threatening journey that continues in deep deprogramming. Her contention, "once MKULTRA, always MKULTRA," however the dismantling and manageability of her still surfacing alters and programs has allowed an intelligent and self-aware evaluation of not only her own situation, yet that of the "next level" End Time agenda now affecting the globe. If the current intellect continues to demand that all that is surreal is a judge to falsehoods, then humanity will not extract itself from the impending species kontrol. According to Elisa and many of her alternate personalities, the "next level" is the total kontrol of the human species without their recognition that it occurred.
