Book excerpt: The book Walking Wounded teaches the reader how to identify their own personal wounds in life and provides step-by-step instruction on how to resolve those wounds and come to a place of wholeness. Herein, Dr. Mark Jones takes the reader through three key processes to obtain healing: resolving your past, restoring your health, and retraining your thinking. The book not only teaches how to resolve the past on an emotional, spiritual, mental and relationship level, but also how to be restored to health through a re-established sense of self-worth. The definition of a wound is, "an experience that produces pain or even trauma which creates a memory and a sense of loss, regret or even death of some kind." Wounds can either be self-inflicted or can be inflicted by other people or unfortunate situations. Walking Wounded encourages the reader to examine their life and reach out for professional help rather than attempt to resolve everything by themselves. Within its pages, Dr. Mark Jones provides the help needed to do so and in turn shows the reader how to identify their giftings, strengths and talents, In reading this book, you too will find the tools you need in order to identify the wounds that have hurt you, receive healing, and discover your strengths and giftings and how to use them with confidence to live a successful and fulfilling life while maximizing your God - given potential.

Book excerpt: Sherwood O'Neal and Art Johnson--back from an unpopular war and unable to fit into the lives they left to serve their country--are building a new life in a remote cabin in South Dakota's Black Hills. That life is disrupted by the death of Sherwood's sister, which leaves him the only living relative of her four-year-old son, Jamie. Reluctantly, Sherwood accepts his responsibility to do 'something' for his nephew, which takes the two recovering soldiers back to California where they are forced to confront both the fall-out from their service and the lives they had sought to escape.Through the confusion and uncertainty of a society trying to reconcile itself with the fact that The United States of America is losing a war, Sherwood and Art come face to face with the collateral damage of that war on the home front. Slowly they realize that the Army didn't create all their problems, as surely as getting out didn't fix them, and that the hippies were right. The only thing that really matters is love.

Book excerpt: The message of this book is to show how God makes all things new. The old things that are not of God shall pass away and behold everything will become new for you, but only if you let Jesus lead you into all truth. 2Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. There is nothing that you have done or even doing that will cause our Heavenly Father to turn away from you forever. When you come to God with a sincere heart of repentance, He will answer you, and His Will for your life will put everything that is out of order back in order. Thereafter, you can follow Christ with nothing holding you back, no past hurts, no guilt, no shame, no un-forgiveness, nothing will be able to keep you from walking into your season of newness in Christ Jesus. Rid yourself of the old in order for God to release you into His new. Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Download or read book Walking Wounded written by Andrew Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2013-10-24 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This uncompromising biography tells the story of a wounded D-Day veteran, a deserter, a violent drunk, a loving father who abandoned his first child, a boxer and brawler, a wife-beater, a bigamist, and a passionately romantic lover. It is also, most importantly, the story of a poet. Vernon Scannell wrote some of the finest poetry to come out of the Second World War. He won the Chomondeley Prize and the Heinemann Award, and for half a century he was acknowledged as one of the leading poets in the country. His Collected Poems are still in print, and his poetry for both adults and children is regularly anthologised and appears on English Literature examination papers. Scannell died in 2007, and Walking Wounded draws on his personal diaries, poems, and other writings to offer the first detailed study of this complex, controversial, and occasionally tragic life. For the first time, the women who loved him tell their stories; his children describe growing up with a father who was funny, affectionate, sometimes violent, and often not there at all; and his fellow poets, including Seamus Heaney, Anthony Thwaite, Alan Brownjohn and Kit Wright, speak of the dedicated stylist, assured performer, and occasionally roistering drunk that they knew. Scannell was seriously wounded in Normandy shortly after D-Day, but the book looks at the deeper, mental scars from the War that he bore all his life, and of the suffering they caused to him and the people who loved him. It is an important book about an important poet, which investigates where poetry comes from, and the terrible price that sometimes has to be paid for it.

Download or read book Walking Wounded written by Barbara Richard and published by Barbara Richard. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story begun in Dancing on His Grave continues, as the five Finch girls one by one escape their father's psychopathic abuse, only to find themselves cast into the world drastically ill-equipped to cope with the demands of adulthood. In this sequel, the girls find their paths mined with the untruths and denial learned as children, and the lack of self-esteem or faith in their own abilities. In spite of these pitfalls, the young women's intelligence, determination and love for their children keep them striving toward normalcy. At the same time, their mother chooses to stay with her husband for seven years after her daughters have all gone, and with her classic denial conceals his increasingly psychotic behavior. Finally, after a severe concussion and a near miss again a month later, she flees to her oldest daughter's home and begins the long process of de-programming, after thirty three years of abuse. During her recovery, she fulfills a life-long dream of graduating from college with a degree in English. Meanwhile, her husband pursues the path of an alcoholic, and two years later remarries. Within a few months his new wife disappears. It takes the girls over a year to find her, back in Las Vegas, with a story of a terror-filled night when she was convinced he would murder her. Walking Wounded attempts to bring the Finch family's story to a reasonable conclusion, although the effects of the brutality inflicted on them as children create a life-long struggle for the women.

Never minimizing victims' pain or offering pat spiritual answers that don't truly address the problem, he instead calls evil evil and lights the way to renewed joy. Counselors, pastors, and friends of those who have suffered sexual harm will find in this book the deep spiritual guidance they need to effectively minister to the sexually broken around them. Victims themselves will find here a sympathetic friend to walk alongside them on the road to healing.

Book excerpt: Born at the end of the First World War, a young girl struggles to find her own identity in her big family and is pushed into a stormy marriage through a terrible misunderstanding from which her pride refuses to let her back down. As her own personal world begins to crumble, the foundation of the world around her is shaken as Germany once again declares war and her brothers and young husband sign up with the first wave of volunteers. Walking Wounded tells the story of those left behind in a Blitz-ravaged London, and of the web of loyalty, guilt and duty that shapes the decisions of the women awaiting the return of their men-folk as the war draws to a close. Spanning the period from the Armistice of the First World War to the exodus of the Ten Pound Poms to Australia in the 1950s, Walking Wounded is a family saga whose internal violence is mirrored by the world stage upon which it is set.
