Widower Tobias Miller's seven-year-old twins are almost more than the exhausted wrangler can handle. Not only is he helping his mother and sister run the Wild Rose Amish Inn, but he also works at Mountain Home Feed and helps out on any ranch that needs another hand. So it's a gift from Gott when Sylvia Keim offers to look after the children until school starts. She has such a gentle spirit, and is so capable he could almost hug her--if his love for his late wife wasn't still burning in his heart. Sylvia Keim is older than many of the Youngie in Mountain Home, and her marriage prospects seem to diminish with every year, despite her mother's efforts to match her up with one of the Zook brothers--who are in their fifties. Tobias Miller's children are a handful, but she loves them anyway. Nor can she help her feelings for their father-grieving, overwhelmed, and yet so kind and so good with them that it's all she can do not to fall in love completely. Unrequited love would only lead to heartbreak, though, because Tobias never seems to see her past the shadow of his wife's memory. What will it take for two lonely people to see how perfect they are for each other? Why, a little matchmaking from a pair of mischievous twins who want Sylvia to be their new Mamm, of course!

Download or read book Analyzing Oppression written by Ann E. Cudd and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing Oppression presents a new, integrated theory of social oppression, which tackles the fundamental question that no theory of oppression has satisfactorily answered: if there is no natural hierarchy among humans, why are some cases of oppression so persistent? Cudd argues that the explanation lies in the coercive co-opting of the oppressed to join in their own oppression. This answer sets the stage for analysis throughout the book, as it explores the questions of how and why the oppressed join in their oppression. Cudd argues that oppression is an institutionally structured harm perpetrated on social groups by other groups using direct and indirect material, economic, and psychological force. Among the most important and insidious of the indirect forces is an economic force that operates through oppressed persons' own rational choices. This force constitutes the central feature of analysis, and the book argues that this force is especially insidious because it conceals the fact of oppression from the oppressed and from others who would be sympathetic to their plight. The oppressed come to believe that they suffer personal failings and this belief appears to absolve society from responsibility. While on Cudd's view oppression is grounded in material exploitation and physical deprivation, it cannot be long sustained without corresponding psychological forces. Cudd examines the direct and indirect psychological forces that generate and sustain oppression. She discusses strategies that groups have used to resist oppression and argues that all persons have a moral responsibility to resist in some way. In the concluding chapter Cudd proposes a concept of freedom that would be possible for humans in a world that is actively opposing oppression, arguing that freedom for each individual is only possible when we achieve freedom for all others.

Download or read book Herb of Grace written by Adina Senft and published by FaithWords. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amish widow Sarah Yoder has been struggling to raise her two teenaged sons and provide a home where family and members of her Old Order Amish church can find fellowship and friendship. Though she is close to her in-laws, lately it feels like her relationship with her boys is splintering. Her stepson Simon wants to move out west with his cousins to find work. And her youngest, Caleb, is spending far too much time over at the tumbledown home of a man who left the church long ago. Henry Byler only returned recently to Willow Creek when he inherited the family farm--under protest--and now seems caught in a struggle between the faith of his childhood and the world he's come to know. Ruth Lehman, the local Dokterfraa, believes Sarah should use her gift for growing plants to become an herbal healer, too. Sarah is reluctant, however, uncertain if caring for others will take her away from her family--the place where she believes God wants her. But when she feels called to help members of her community, she soon discovers that the heart can be scarred as deeply as the body. As she compiles her herbs, she waits for God to do his healing work in a man who rues a harsh decision, in a lonely prodigal who has lost everything, and maybe even in a herbalist-in-training who firmly believes she will never love again.
