Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an inspiring true story I was molested as a child and, later on, raped as a teenager and as an adult. Life is not safe, nor is it easy for children or adults, but I thank God Im still here, singing and giving Him praise for his goodness. I could have been dead and gone, but God has a plan for my life. It was a blessing for me to be able to write this book. I thank God for keeping me through it all. He blessed me to write this book as an example to other young women everywhere. Because I didnt know the Lord for myself, I made a lot of wrong choices in my life. I went about doing what I thought was right, looking for love in all the wrong places, trying to find peace for my soul, but I was running so fast I ran right into evil everywhere I went. I want to encourage you to seek God first in your life, and he will direct your past. Call on the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. The way to seek Him is to read and study the Bible daily, starting with the Ten Commandments. The book of Proverbs tells us how we should live and not live, for His Word is our everyday instructions, if we listen to what He is telling us. Get to know God for yourself. Mothers and fathers, teach your children the ways of God. Proverbs 22:6 says, Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Isaiah 54:13 says, And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children. The Word tells us that we are born into a world of sin, but God does not intend for us to stay in sin. He is giving us a choice to change and do right for eternal life or to continue in evil and burn in the lake of fire forever. A child should never have to go through abuse of any kind in life, but it exists more often than not. It is the parents job to teach and protect their children by teaching them to speak up and speak out against the evil one and that its all right to say no so they wont make the wrong choices in their lives. Ladies, we have to be careful of whom we leave our children with or whom we bring into our home and with our children. Evil is everywhere. There are all kinds of people in this world. Children are being molested or killed every day at the hands of a friend, stranger, boyfriend, uncle, cousin, father, brotherthe list goes on! God said to trust no man. Man will continue to molest children as long as he can get away with it. If a person molests you, more than likely he has and will molest someone else. The cycle continues unless theyre stopped. The enemy wants to steal, kill, and destroy us because of the plan God has for our lives. The devil wants to destroy our children, to keep them from getting to where God wants them to be. I seek ed after the Lord for myself, and I found Him. What I didnt know was, through it all, he was keeping me. Its all a test to see where your faith lies in Christ Jesus. Lord I just want to thank You!

Book excerpt: He Speaks in the Silence is about Diane Comer’s search for the kind of intimacy with God every woman longs for. It is a story of trying to be a good girl, of following the rules, of longing for a satisfaction that eludes us. Disappointed with all Diane had been told was supposed to fulfill her, she begged God in desperation to give her more. And He did. But first He took her through a trial so debilitating it almost destroyed what little faith she had. He let her go deaf. Using vivid parallels between her deafness and every woman’s struggle to hear God, this book shows women not only how Diane, as a deaf woman, hears in everyday life, but also how she can learn to listen to God in the midst of her own loud life, finding intimacy with God and the deep soul satisfaction she longs for.

Download or read book Wandering in Darkness written by Eleonore Stump and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only the most naïve or tendentious among us would deny the extent and intensity of suffering in the world. Can one hold, consistently with the common view of suffering in the world, that there is an omniscient, omnipotent, perfectly good God? This book argues that one can. Wandering in Darkness first presents the moral psychology and value theory within which one typical traditional theodicy, namely, that of Thomas Aquinas, is embedded. It explicates Aquinas's account of the good for human beings, including the nature of love and union among persons. Eleonore Stump also makes use of developments in neurobiology and developmental psychology to illuminate the nature of such union. Stump then turns to an examination of narratives. In a methodological section focused on epistemological issues, the book uses recent research involving autism spectrum disorder to argue that some philosophical problems are best considered in the context of narratives. Using the methodology argued for, the book gives detailed, innovative exegeses of the stories of Job, Samson, Abraham and Isaac, and Mary of Bethany. In the context of these stories and against the backdrop of Aquinas's other views, Stump presents Aquinas's own theodicy, and shows that Aquinas's theodicy gives a powerful explanation for God's allowing suffering. She concludes by arguing that this explanation constitutes a consistent and cogent defense for the problem of suffering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She's seen slave dungeons in Ghana. Genocide in Rwanda. Systemic sexual abuse in Brazil. Child abuse and domestic violence in the US. After forty years of counseling abuse survivors around the world, Dr. Diane Langberg, a world renowned trauma expert, remains certain that what trauma destroys, Christ can and does restore. This book will convince you, too, of the healing heart of God. But it's not a fast process, instead much patience is required from family, friends, and counselors as they wisely and respectfully help victims unpack their traumatic suffering through talking, tears, and time. And it's not a process that can be separated from the work of God in both a counselor and counselee. Dr. Langberg calls all of those who wish to help sufferers to model Jesus's sacrificial love and care in how they listen, love, and guide. The heart of God is revealed to sufferers as they grow to understand the cross of Christ and how their God came to this earth and experienced such severe suffering that he too is "well-acquainted with grief." The cross of Christ is the lens that transforms and redeems traumatic suffering and its aftermath, not only for the sufferer, but it also transforms those who walk with the suffering. This book will be a great help to anyone who loves, listens to, and seeks to help someone impacted by trauma and abuse. There is no quick fix, but there is the hope for healing through the love of God in Christ.

Book excerpt: Amanda and her family seemed to be the perfect family. But the secrets they hid beneath the surface were destroying Amandas life. Though friends and relatives knew that her fatheran upstanding citizen, a contributing member of society, and a religious family leaderwas strict, they had no knowledge of the physical, mental, and emotional torture he inflicted upon Amanda and her brother, David. After four years of sexual abuse, Amanda felt like an empty shell of a human being, incapable of any productive future. In Saved from Silence, author Amanda Richardson explores the doubts, fears, and perplexities of the abuse that took place in her childhood. She especially yearned for validation from her mother, who steadfastly refused to acknowledge that the abuse had even occurred. Each confrontation with her mother was met with rejection, blame, and failure. After years of therapy, love, support, and prayer, Amanda has broken her silence, confronted her abuser, and made herself whole. An honest and courageous memoir, Saved from Silence not only shares Amandas personal, heart-wrenching story of abuse, but serves to impart a greater awareness and understanding of child abuse and its depth, severity, and long-term effects, for which early intervention is a key element to healing and recovery.
