Download or read book Who Defines Me written by Eid Mohamed and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who Defines Me: Negotiating Identity in Language and Literature is a collection of insightful articles that represent an interdisciplinary study of identity. The articles start from the premise that identity is, and always has been, unstable and mutable; which is to say that identity is constructed and deconstructed and reconstructed – only to be deconstructed and reconstructed again, in turn to be deconstructed and reconstructed (and so on ad infinitum). Time and place are variables. So, too – as Who Defines Me underscores – are ethnicity, religion, politics and power, race and color, nationality, gender, culture, language, and socio-economic status. With all of these variables in mind, Who Defines Me focuses on language and literature as the portal through which identity is explored. The overarching rubrics under which the explorations are conducted are Arabs and Muslims, race identity in America, and language identity.

Download or read book Gotham Girl Interrupted written by Alisa Kennedy Jones and published by Charlesbridge Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nora Ephron and Allie Brosh fans take note: Alisa Jones' memoir Gotham Girl Interrupted is a smart stand-up comedy about the power of falling down. "Get to your safe spaces, people. Here comes the shimmer..." From irreverent NYC blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones comes an account of her "misadventures in motherhood, love, and epilepsy" that James Patterson calls "smart, harrowing, heart-warming, and very funny." What do Da Vinci, Agatha Christie, and blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones have in common? If you said "timeless artistic genius", stop sucking up--the answer is ecstatic epilepsy. In this hilarious and moving dispatch from the frontlines of neurodiversity, Jones chronicles life with these terrifying-yet-beautiful grand mal seizures. Characteristic of Jones's condition are attacks which leave her with what Zen Buddhists sometimes refer to as a "beginner's mind": a vast, open expanse of headspace, coupled with a creative euphoria. With bracing candor and humility, Jones describes living with chronic illness, single motherhood, and her day-to-day life as a hapless writer in NYC. Above all, Jones reminds us to fight the battle for becoming who we are supposed to be--no matter how much flopping around on the ground and wetting ourselves we have to do to get there.
Download or read book Holy Spirit written by Eulalie Hendricks and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-20 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is two thousand years overdue in its telling. Since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, God declared a state of war between Satan and the woman and her offspring, therefore, Satan hates women with every fiber of his being (Gen. 3:14, 15, MSG). Since time immemorial, Satan has worked relentlessly to try and steal, kill, and destroy women, trying to steal our knowledge of who we are in Christ Jesus, trying to beat us down and kill us with abuse, and trying to steal from us our dignity, our value, our worth, our identity, and ultimately, our joy (1 Pet. 5:8). For too long, Satan has kept us deceived, demeaned, and defeated, but Jeremiah declares, "Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know" (Jer. 33:3). Through Jesus's glorious gospel of grace, God is lifting the veil of darkness that has kept Christians blinded to the truth of who women are in Christ and all that is ours as heirs to His throne of grace. A grace revolution is sweeping our planet, and part of that is the unveiling of women's identity in the Godhead and all that we are in Christ Jesus. Two thousand years ago, at the cross of Calvary, God returned to man His glory, and this book unveils all that that means to us as daughters of the Most High, and it reveals the fullness of who we are as His comforters, helpers, and beautiful shekinahs.
Download or read book Manifesting Made Easy written by Karen Mcdonnell Hilligoss and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karen McDonnell Hilligoss refuses to allow herself to live with self-defeating thoughts or self-imposed limitations. Instead, she has chosen to partner with the spirit realm and continue to allow a higher power to dictate her life’s purpose and plan. Once again, she is inviting others to do the same. In a spiritual guide based on speeches and books by Dr. Wayne Dyer, Karen leads knowledge seekers down an inspiring, self-reflective path while expanding on Dyer’s teachings and principles. After describing the meaning of intention, explaining how the connection to intention can become corroded, and then detailing how we can reconnect with intention to create an ideal life, Karen reveals why taking concrete action steps is so important to success and provides a formula to manifest dreams and fulfill wishes through the spiritual concept, the Power of I Am. She relies on her diverse experience with meditation to offer additional insight into how others can overcome ordinary consciousness and realize miracles. The Power of I Am blends personal stories with the teachings of Dr. Wayne Dyer to help anyone tap into the amazing power of manifestation to create a dream life.

Download or read book Love At First Sight written by Rebecca Merz and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the death of her husband, Rebecca turned to God for everything. She was alone and needed God more than ever. This personal relationship with God became so intense that she experienced Him in ways she never dreamed were possible. Rebecca's journey began when she became convinced God used a man she named Adam to awaken her passion to be a married lady again. When Rebecca shared every little detail of her life with God, she felt certain God orchestrated the funniest situations to give her confidence as she traveled into unknown territory. She insisted God was being playful with her and wanted her to relax and trust that He was the one that was in control. Those times Rebecca experienced doubt, God did some remarkable things to prove He was with her. As a result she developed a boldness to do what she believed God was asking of her. God always confirmed the decisions she made were the stepping-stones leading to her destiny. She learned God was pleased by her faith that she entrusted to Him alone. God demonstrated two-way communication with Him was not only possible but was necessary in order to turn her dreams into reality. This two-way conversation brought her relationship with God to a deeper level. She knew He had prepared the way that would lead her to her future husband. Rebecca claims God is still in the match making business and is the best dating coach any person could ask for because Father knows best. All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to a mobile ministry that gives women who are facing unplanned pregnancies image clear ultrasounds free of charge. When women are in crisis due to an unwanted pregnancy they need to know that God loved them at "First Sight." Hopefully with knowledge of this truth these women will now be willing to "step out on a maybe" and trust God to work out a solution that begins with them choosing life for the child within.
