Book excerpt: Solitary Journey Hilary Blake, a kindergarten teacher from Branson, Missouri, suffered through a six-year marriage with a man who complained about everything he could think of, including the way she dusted the ivy. She eventually discovered he did not love her when she was six months into her first pregnancy. He denied the baby was his and announced he was gay. His abuse caused Hilary to loose her baby, and Hilary divorced him. She was on the verge of a nervous breakdown when she decided to take a trip through Texas as soon as school was out. She had almost three months vacation time and she started on her journey through the Lone Star State. When she met Josh Timmons, who was supremely handsome, she decided to relax and experience sexual pleasure for a change. Though Josh usually used protection, he neglected to use any with Hilary, and because she had been married so long, she didn't think of it. This resulted in pregnancy. Josh was extremely jealous of Hilary and he was eager to marry her. But he was still in the University of Texas working on his Ph.D. Hilary refused to let him quit school until his education was complete. She journeyed through Texas looking for a teaching job, which seemed to evade her at every stop. She did encounter another man, Ed Wheatly, who seemed perfect. Before it was over, she questioned the wisdom of marrying either man. She decided to have and rear her child alone, if only she could find a job. It didn't turn out that way at all. The trip she took was indeed a Solitary Journey.

Download or read book Solitary written by Albert Woodfox and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An uncommonly powerful memoir about four decades in confinement . . . A profound book about friendship [and] solitary confinement in the United States.” —New York Times Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award Solitary is the unforgettable life story of a man who served more than four decades in solitary confinement—in a 6-foot by 9-foot cell, twenty-three hours a day, in Louisiana’s notorious Angola prison—all for a crime he did not commit. That Albert Woodfox survived at all was a feat of extraordinary endurance. That he emerged whole from his odyssey within America’s prison and judicial systems is a triumph of the human spirit. While behind bars in his early twenties, Albert was inspired to join the Black Panther Party because of its social commitment and code of living. He was serving a fifty-year sentence in Angola for armed robbery when, on April 17, 1972, a white guard was killed. Albert and another member of the Panthers were accused of the crime and immediately put in solitary confinement. Without a shred of evidence against them, their trial was a sham of justice. Decades passed before Albert was finally released in February 2016. Sustained by the solidarity of two fellow Panthers, Albert turned his anger into activism and resistance. The Angola 3, as they became known, resolved never to be broken by the corruption that effectively held them for decades as political prisoners. Solitary is a clarion call to reform the inhumanity of solitary confinement in the United States and around the world.
Download or read book The Solitary Explorer written by Elena Malits and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Solitary Explorer responsibly and critically explores Thomas Merton's lifelong spiritual development as reflected in his religious and secular writings and delineates the meaning of his life and work for contemporary readers. It provides an interpretive chronology of Merton's writings and unravels the intertwining threads of self-realization and widening intellectual interests evidenced in the material he produced between his early autobiography and the controversial work of his later years. Elena Malits shows Merton as writer, as monk, as social critic, as seeker of wisdom in the East, as man of prayer, and as one continually on a journey into the unknown. Merton always held that the quest for God is a continuing one: The Solitary Explorer traces the progress of this quest in Merton's life and literary works to reveal a multifaceted spiritual guide who offers an approach to the divine at once reassuringly traditional and refreshingly contemporary.

Book excerpt: Twenty-nine years, 7 months, 14 days, and the battle still rages. Jena Morrow has an eating disorder. It can kill her. Jena Morrow has a Savior. He came to give her abundant life. This is not a polished tale of victory but an honest, true story of fragility. Hollow recounts Jena’s daily struggle with anorexia and the God who is able and willing to reach down into the dirt. A central theme of Hollow is the surrender of control to Jesus Christ. His Word is interwoven throughout the story as rebuttals to the lies that besiege those engaged in any addiction. In addition to her point of view, Jena includes those of her friends, family, and former therapists providing an undercurrent of hope. Written in an easy conversational voice, Hollow will resonate with those in the midst of a struggle and those who stand beside them.

Download or read book Longing for Spring written by Elaine A. Heath and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delving into the widespread, contemporary longing for a more serious and communal experience of Christianity, this book provides important theoretical underpinnings and casts a vision for a new monasticism within the Wesleyan tradition. Elaine Heath and Scott Kisker call for the planting of neo-monastic churches which embody the Wesleyan vision of holiness in postmodern contexts. This book also points toward some vital shifts that are necessary in theological education in order to equip pastors to lead such communities. Longing for Spring helps Wesleyans of all stripes understand the theory and praxis necessary for planting neo-monastic communities as a new model of the church that is particularly important in the postmodern context. The authors write in an engaging, conversational style that is conversant with postmodern culture, yet thoroughly informed by critical research. Heath and Kisker boldly challenge the imagination of the church, both within and beyond Wesleyan traditions, to consider the possibility of revitalizing the church through the new monasticism.
