When reflecting on your life, did it go as planned? On the receiving end of bad, sad, or tragic news, do you control your temper, or does it control you?

Download or read book Known by God written by Brian S. Rosner and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are you? What defines you? What makes you, you? In the past an individual's identity was more predictable than it is today. Life's big questions were basically settled before you were born: where you'd live, what you'd do, the type of person you'd marry, your basic beliefs, and so on. Today personal identity is a do-it-yourself project. Constructing a stable and satisfying sense of self is hard amidst relationship breakdowns, the pace of modern life, the rise of social media, multiple careers, social mobility, and so on. Ours is a day of identity angst. Known by God is built on the observation that humans are inherently social beings; we know who we are in relation to others and by being known by them. If one of the universal desires of the self is to be known by others, being known by God as his children meets our deepest and lifelong need for recognition and gives us a secure identity. Rosner argues that rather than knowing ourselves, being known by God is the key to personal identity. He explores three biblical angles on the question of personal identity: being made in the image of God, being known by God and being in Christ. The notion of sonship is at the center - God gives us our identity as a parent who knows his child. Being known by him as his child gives our fleeting lives significance, provokes in us needed humility, supplies cheering comfort when things go wrong, and offers clear moral direction for living.

Download or read book Masters of Belief written by Felipe Zimmer and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine taking all the distractions away: technology, your job, your car, your books, and even the people you meet daily. Picture all of them temporarily out of your life. Don’t worry, they’ll be back. But imagine living without distraction for several months. What would you come across? Perhaps, you would rediscover your beliefs, feelings, and needs––things of which you were not conscious due to life distractions. That is what author and speaker Felipe Zimmer did when he retreated to a house in the thick of nature in an effort to discover himself on a deeper level and rediscover humanity as a whole. By looking at existence from beyond the mental meanderings of daily life, Felipe’s consciousness expanded, and he was struck by inspiration not of this world but from what is beyond. As an analogy, what if we thought Earth was all there is? Then what if we received the opportunity to visit the rest of the universe? Masters of Belief is that universe as we look beyond the every day to make contact with a higher power. Exploring subjects like spirituality, mind, life, death, relationships, and much more, this book won’t tell you what to believe, but it might help you understand your own beliefs and guide you through the process of remembering who you are.
Download or read book Your Life After Trauma Powerful Practices to Reclaim Your Identity written by Michele Rosenthal and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-05-16 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restoring your sense of self after trauma. “In 1981 as a thirteen-year-old child I was given a routine antibiotic for a routine infection and suffered anything but a routine reaction. An undiscovered allergy to the medication turned me into a full-body burn victim almost overnight. By the time I was released from the hospital I had lost 100% of my epidermis. Even more importantly, I had completely lost myself.” Now a professional coach who specializes in helping trauma victims rebuild their lives, Michele Rosenthal struggled with the effects of medically-induced post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for over 25 years before reaching a full recovery. Today, she is 100% free of symptoms of PTSD. In this book, she applies her personal experience and professional wisdom to offer readers an invaluable roadmap to overcoming their own trauma, in particular the loss of sense of self that often accompanies it. If you suffer from the effects of trauma or PTSD, whether it was caused by a single-incident like a car accident, or from chronic childhood abuse, domestic violence, illness, or war trauma, you are well aware of how disconnected you feel from the person you most deeply wish to be. Trauma interrupts—even hijacks—your identity. To cope, you may rely on mechanisms to keep your emotions, triggers, and responses in check, but these very habits can often prevent the true restoration of safety, stability, and inner connection. How can you rediscover your sense of self so that you honor who you were before the trauma (even if that trauma began at birth), understand who you are at this very moment, and determine who you want to be going forward? Like a therapist in your back pocket, Your Life After Trauma guides you in finding answers to these tough questions. Expertly written by a helping professional who keenly understands the post-trauma identity crisis that is so common among trauma and PTSD sufferers, it is a simple, practical, hands-on recovery workbook. Filled with self-assessment questionnaires, exercises, tips, and tools—not to mention insightful personal and professional vignettes—it takes readers through a step-by-step process of healing the identity crisis, from understanding some of the basic brain science behind trauma and why you feel the way you do, to recognizing who you were (or had the potential to be) before the trauma, who you are today, after the trauma, and who you want to become. With this book by your side, it is possible to regain a sense of calm, confidence, and control on your road to recovery.

For anyone troubled by obsessive thoughts, insomnia and other manifestations of anxiety, counsellor Sheryl Paul offers shelter in the storm.

Weaving together practical exercises with personal stories, Paul offers medication-free approaches for accessing the gifts in different kinds of anxiety, and especially the anxiety summoned by life's transitions, for example a career change, becoming parents or becoming carers for loved ones. Chapters include recognising the symptoms of anxiety, its origins, the myth of 'normal', the expectation of happiness and a timeline of healing that includes exercises for the body and mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timeless is the war for our faith and anchor in Christ to be dislodged. It can happen ever so subtly, even when we don't realize it. Distractions, situations, relationships, and even good things can cause us to lose our center, or in other words, that place that gives us balance. When people lose their balance, they usually fall. It happens even if we don't want it to, and even if we doubt it can. There is a lesson of the science of faith that is at work within the core of every soul. We must continually be "Centered on Majesty" by diligently pursuing Him and living a life that recognizes that Jesus Christ is our source and our stability. "In today's society, it is easy to stay focused on our pain, our victimization, and our troubles. In Centered on Majesty, Susan League lifts our eyes above self to the awesome God who holds our heart in His hands. Take this daily devotional journey with Susan as she leads you through the wanderings of your soul to the place where tears are wiped away and hope is birthed. Her daily, relatable stories coupled with reflection on Scripture will set you on a Christ-focused path for the day. Let your spirit soar with Centered on Majesty."
