Download or read book Shedding Shame and Claiming Freedom written by Anne Hastings and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shame is the underpinning of almost all distress, almost all emotional issues, almost all reluctance to claim your life fully. Knowing this, then you know that there is something you can do about it. Shame is what holds us back from self care, from discovering who we are and living it, from having boundaries around how we will interact with others. Releasing shame allows going from being a sheep to someone making their own decisions, who automatically lives with meaning and purpose. More than a glass half full, there is no glass. No external measure of goodness because it is all good. Sounds too good to be true? Walk with me through the shaming going on around us every day all day. See it for what it is so you can stop joining in. Stop shaming, refuse to be shamed, stop gossiping, stop criticizing. Instead seeing, and deciding the best course of action. And doing it. First we all need to rip ourselves loose from the control this dreadful emotion has on us. This book shows you the hundreds of ways shame influences our lives, and every one else's. The second section then walks through the process of healing ourselves from the harm caused. Shame can be put in its place, seen for what it is, and released from our cells.
Download or read book Shedding Shame Letting Go of the Shame Game written by Roxine Denison and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shame is a subject many want to avoid. Believe me, from my own experience whatever pain it takes to journey through the process is so much better than staying stuck in an endless cycle that keeps you sick. The cloak of shame becomes our garment whether we did something shameful or something shameful was done to us. Shame is wrought with lies from the enemy and he uses those lies to rob us not only of our true identity but our destiny as well. It is amazingly possible to defeat the "shame game" as evidenced in Phillippians 4:13 which tells us "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us". This book will guide you on your personal journey of shedding shame as you renew your mind. It is designed to be used as a teaching tool, with teacher's notes and homework for each chapter. I hope you find freedom, as I did, when I walked through this same journey. It is so worth the process! Educated by the "school of hard knocks", Roxine knows a little bit about the shame game. She continues to be a seeker on her own journey and has answered the call to help others find hope in the inner healing process. Her efforts to help others includes speaking, co-facilitating women's soul woundedness groups, and teaching ladies Bible studies. Currently she is serving as a prayer minister, manages a prayer group for inner healing and co-leads a school of inner healing prayer through her church. Roxine lives in South Georgia with her husband Richard and their dog Lucy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom From the Shame of the Past is applicable to anyone who is trying to escape from the past.

Mike Fehlauer shares insight from his own struggle with sin, sharing scriptural principles to help us understand our true value. The author found himself testing the waters and venturing into the world of sexual sin and pornography. Time and again leading the double life took its toll. His sexual addiction, shame, and feelings of disgust and self-loathing plagued him. One night his personal darkness took him to the pit of despair. With the cold steel of his gun barrel pressed against his skull, Mike felt alone and without hope. Discover how God literally worked a miracle in the lives of Mike and his family and helped him break the bondage of that horrible stronghold and begin his life anew. Readers will come to realize that nothing they could do will ever outstrip the power and finality of the cross.
Download or read book Free Speech and Democracy in Ancient Athens written by Arlene W. Saxonhouse and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-12-19 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illuminates the distinctive character of our modern understanding of the basis and value of free speech by contrasting it with the very different form of free speech that was practised by the ancient Athenians in their democratic regime. Free speech in the ancient democracy was not a protected right but an expression of the freedom from hierarchy, awe, reverence and shame. It was thus an essential ingredient of the egalitarianism of that regime. That freedom was challenged by the consequences of the rejection of shame (aidos) which had served as a cohesive force within the polity. Through readings of Socrates's trial, Greek tragedy and comedy, Thucydides's History, and Plato's Protagoras this volume explores the paradoxical connections between free speech, democracy, shame, and Socratic philosophy and Thucydidean history as practices of uncovering.

Download or read book Stand in Confidence written by Amanda Pittman and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esther Press Presents Stand in Confidence by Amanda Pittman Culture, church, and life have sold us narratives about who we’re supposed to be as women. If we play the part well, we gain love, acceptance, validation, and significance. When we don’t know which role to play from one day to the next, we sink in insecurity. We feel driven to people-please, downplay, settle, and perform. In all this, we accept less than the abundant life Jesus died to give us. Amanda Pittman, founder of Confident Woman Co., explains how we can rewrite their damaging self-beliefs with the truth about our God-given identity by establishing the Four Components of Confidence: Clarity—Embrace our identity and define our design Connection—Connect with God and connect with others Competency—Develop our ability and expand our capacity Conviction—Know our responsibility and use our authority With a new perspective and focus, we will stand confidently upon the finished work of Jesus and live boldly in our God-given callings.
Download or read book How to Talk About Books You Haven t Read written by Pierre Bayard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-10 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this delightfully witty, provocative book, literature professor and psychoanalyst Pierre Bayard argues that not having read a book need not be an impediment to having an interesting conversation about it. (In fact, he says, in certain situations reading the book is the worst thing you could do.) Using examples from such writers as Graham Greene, Oscar Wilde, Montaigne, and Umberto Eco, he describes the varieties of "non-reading"-from books that you've never heard of to books that you've read and forgotten-and offers advice on how to turn a sticky social situation into an occasion for creative brilliance. Practical, funny, and thought-provoking, How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read-which became a favorite of readers everywhere in the hardcover edition-is in the end a love letter to books, offering a whole new perspective on how we read and absorb them.
Download or read book Freedom written by Jeremy Griffith and published by WTM Publishing and Communications. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fastest growing realization everywhere is that humanity can't go on the way it is going. Indeed, the great fear is we're entering endgame where we appear to have lost the race between self-destruction and self-discovery--the race to find the psychologically relieving understanding of our 'good and evil'-afflicted human condition. WELL, ASTONISHING AS IT IS, THIS BOOK BY AUSTRALIAN BIOLOGIST JEREMY GRIFFITH PRESENTS THE 11TH HOUR BREAKTHROUGH BIOLOGICAL EXPLANATION OF THE HUMAN CONDITION NECESSARY FOR THE PSYCHOLOGICAL REHABILITATION AND TRANSFORMATION OF OUR SPECIES! The culmination of 40 years of studying and writing about our species' psychosis, FREEDOM delivers nothing less than the holy grail of insight we have needed to free ourselves from the human condition. It is, in short, as Professor Harry Prosen, a former president of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, asserts in his Introduction, 'THE BOOK THAT SAVES THE WORLD!'. Griffith has been able to venture right to the bottom of the dark depths of what it is to be human and return with the fully accountable, true explanation of our seemingly imperfect lives. At long last we have the redeeming and thus transforming understanding of human behaviour! And with that explanation found all the other great outstanding scientific mysteries about our existence are now also able to be truthfully explained--of the meaning of our existence, of the origin of our unconditionally selfless moral instincts, and of why we humans became conscious when other animals haven't. Yes, the full story of life on Earth can finally be told--and all of these incredible breakthroughs and insights are presented here in this 'greatest of all books'.
Download or read book She Speaks Fire written by Mariela Rosario and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come Out of the Shadows of Shame Deeply wounded as a child, Mariela Rosario grew up with pain that seemed too profound to heal. She fell into toxic habits of drug use, people-pleasing, and shame. Then, alone in her house in 2015, Mariela experienced a miraculous encounter with God that prompted her to turn away from those destructive patterns and begin attending church. As her relationship with Jesus deepened, she launched a ministry to help other women overcome their past hurts so that they, too, could walk in freedom and joy. Because when a woman’s God-given purpose is activated, she speaks fire. In this transformative book Mariela draws on the biblical story of the garden of Eden to explore eight lessons about shame that will nourish us and lead us to live authentically, powerfully, and freely. As Mariela shows us how we can return to sweet communion with God and ourselves and live in community with others, she helps us see why the seed of shame might be holding us back from God’s call, what it looks like to let go of the need for others’ approval, who our real enemy is and why he will never win, and how to bravely own our stories so we can help others find freedom too. Feelings of shame can feel so overwhelming that it’s hard to know how to move forward. She Speaks Fire will give you the encouragement and validation you need to take that first step—and every bold step after that—to live an authentic and loving life on fire for God.
