Book excerpt: Named one of the "113 Best Books of Modern Horror" by critic Stanley Wiater, Deus-X offers a potent combination of mystery, psychological horror, and spiritual terror. Two seemingly unrelated events set in motion a complex plot: in a secret government installation in California, a political prisoner is grotesquely executed; while on the East Coast, an elderly Vermont farmer vanishes, the victim of an otherwordly abduction. Three amateur investigators with divergent world views--a psychologist, a physicist, and a priest--join forces to discover the relationship between these two events. Stalked by a murderous psychopath intent on stopping them, they encounter UFOs, inexplicable religious phenomena, multiple personalities, and overwhelming psychic violence. They are drawn inexorably forward through the gothic halls of a Canadian hospital for elderly and demented priests to the locked chambers of a covert American repository for space-age weaponry, where they uncover a sinister application of computer technology.

You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book The 15 Minute Case Conceptualization written by Len Sperry and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once understood as useful but optional, case conceptualization is now considered an essential clinical skill. Clinicians looking for resources to assist in learning and mastering this competency must consider approaches that are both effective and clinician-friendly. A truly clinical effective approach explains and guides treatment, and most importantly, predicts challenges and obstacles that are likely to arise over the course of treatment. Most approaches emphasize explanation and treatment guidance but seldom include the third function which helps anticipate like challenges. If not proactively addressed, these challenges are likely to result in therapy interference or premature termination. Research show that such case conceptualization is essential in determining the course and overall effectiveness of therapy, and it can be completed in as little as fifteen minutes. The 15 Minute Case Conceptualization guides clinicians step-by-step through the process of case conceptualization. Accessible and effective, this book is a must-have for clinicians who want to master this essential skill. Book jacket.
