Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? 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 Hyperbole and a Half written by Allie Brosh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Download or read book The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction written by Alan Jacobs and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-26 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, cultural commentators have sounded the alarm about the dire state of reading in America. Americans are not reading enough, they say, or reading the right books, in the right way. In this book, Alan Jacobs argues that, contrary to the doomsayers, reading is alive and well in America. There are millions of devoted readers supporting hundreds of enormous bookstores and online booksellers. Oprah's Book Club is hugely influential, and a recent NEA survey reveals an actual uptick in the reading of literary fiction. Jacobs's interactions with his students and the readers of his own books, however, suggest that many readers lack confidence; they wonder whether they are reading well, with proper focus and attentiveness, with due discretion and discernment. Many have absorbed the puritanical message that reading is, first and foremost, good for you--the intellectual equivalent of eating your Brussels sprouts. For such people, indeed for all readers, Jacobs offers some simple, powerful, and much needed advice: read at whim, read what gives you delight, and do so without shame, whether it be Stephen King or the King James Version of the Bible. In contrast to the more methodical approach of Mortimer Adler's classic How to Read a Book (1940), Jacobs offers an insightful, accessible, and playfully irreverent guide for aspiring readers. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of approaching literary fiction, poetry, or nonfiction, and the book explores everything from the invention of silent reading, reading responsively, rereading, and reading on electronic devices. Invitingly written, with equal measures of wit and erudition, The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction will appeal to all readers, whether they be novices looking for direction or old hands seeking to recapture the pleasures of reading they first experienced as children.

Download or read book The Ants Birthday Party written by AQEEL AHMED and published by AQEEL AHMED. This book was released on 2023-09-30 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of a busy anthill under the big old oak tree, a group of hardworking ants lived together in peace. Everyone in the forest knew how hard they worked and how well they worked together to do their daily tasks. Even though they were very busy, the Ants' Birthday Party was a unique tradition that set them apart. The ants thought that all living things, no matter how small, should have a day to be happy and have fun. Their idea was simple, but it worked: life was a gift that should be cherished. Auntie Antella picked up the young ants one beautiful morning while they were sunbathing in the forest's golden light and told them about the Ants' Birthday Party that was coming up. As the happy little ants told everyone in the anthill, plans began to take shape. Everyone in the settlement gave their unique skills to make the party amazing. Antonio, who was a great cook, chose to make a cake out of the juiciest and sweetest crumbs they could find. Antoinette, the artist, used flower petals and dewdrops as ink to make beautiful invitations. Antonia, who is very good at planning things, made a schedule of games and events. But the most important job was to ask Queen Butterfly, the most beautiful and smart butterfly in the forest, to the party. The ants worked together and didn't give up, so they turned their home into a party with daisies, dandelions, small tables, pebble chairs, and fragrant petal garlands. As the party day got closer, Auntie Antella gathered the little ants again, stressing how important it was to share happiness and kindness, which was the real point of their celebration. Finally, the long-awaited day came, and the forest was bathed in golden light. Antonio showed off a cake with colored crumbs and tasty dew on top, along with tiny ants dressed in their smallest, shiniest outfits. Beautiful invitations from Antoinette brought guests from all over the forest, such as friendly beetles, happy ladybugs, and a family of singing crickets. The event started with a lively dancing competition where many wild animals showed off their skills. As the party hit its peak, Queen Butterfly gracefully lowered herself from the canopy. When her bright wings shone like rainbows, the anthill was filled with awe. Queen Butterfly danced with the young ants and told them stories about her travels. She added a magical touch to the party. It was time to cut the cake as the sun went down. By cutting the cake into two equal halves, Queen Butterfly shows how important it is to share and be with others. The ants found out that the party wasn't special because of the cake, the flowers, or even the special guest. What really made it memorable was the love, laughter, and friendship they shared. The queen butterfly smiled and praised the ants for being honest and able to enjoy the beautiful things in life. Her words had a big effect on us because they reminded us that how sincere the party was more important than how big it was. After that, the ants kept working hard while also finding time to have fun and get to know each other. Their anthill became a place of peace and unity when they were friendly and warm to all the animals in the forest. Everyone remembered that every day was a gift worth celebrating at the Ants' Birthday Party, which became a ritual. People outside of the forest heard about the ants' story, and it became a sign of unity, kindness, and the magic of celebration. It showed that even the smallest animals could teach us the most important lessons about love and what it means to celebrate. This is how the story starts: A group of hardworking ants used to live in a busy anthill under the beautiful old oak tree. These ants were known all over the forest for how hard they worked and how well they worked together. They worked together every day to get food and build tunnels to keep their home safe and warm. Even though they had a lot going on, the Ants' Birthday Party was always something they looked forward to. There were a lot of ants in the hive, or rather, in the "anthill" that was under the big oak tree. Working together and supporting each other were more than just beliefs there; they were ways of life. Each ant had a job to do, from the hunters who went out to find food and nectar to the builders who carefully planned and constructed complex tubes under the hill. Their little legs worked hard, carrying leaves that were many times their own length and width and digging paths that wound through the ground like a maze. People in the woods knew how hard the ants worked, and even other animals in the woods respected their persistence. Animals like squirrels, bunnies, and birds were amazed by the ants' well-organized rows, with each ant carrying its own weight, and by how well their society worked as a whole. Even though they worked very hard, the ants loved the Ants' Birthday Party more than anything else. This yearly gathering showed how much they cared about happiness and unity all the time. Everybody in the colony took the day off from work to enjoy the easy things in life. Plans for the Ants' Birthday Party began months ago. Auntie Antella, who is the tallest and smartest ant, was in charge of planning everything. The settlement didn't tell anyone how old she was, but everyone could tell she was smart. She had seen many generations of ants and knew how important it was to build a strong sense of community. Uncle Antella would group the young ants around her, their eyes sparkling with excitement, and tell them stories about festivals that had happened in the past. These stories were more than just fun; they taught us how to work together, be kind, and know how important it is to take a break from the stresses of everyday life. Auntie Antella told the little ants about the time they had Mr. and Mrs. Beetle over, even though they were lost in the bush. When the beetles brought music and dances to the festival, the ants gave them food and a place to live in return. These stories helped them remember that the Ants' Birthday Party was a chance to be kind and friendly to everyone, not just themselves. As time went on, the young ants were happy to offer their skills to help the party go well. Antonio, the anthill's skilled cook, would try out new recipes to make the best party food, and Antoinette, the anthill's artistic soul, would carefully write invitations on a canvas of petals and dewdrops. Antonia, who is very good at planning things, would make sure that everyone had a good day by planning games and other fun things to do. The most important job, though, was picking out a special guest for the party. There would be heated arguments among the young ants over who would represent the party's energy. They could have invited anything from a wise old owl to a beautiful dragonfly, but they chose to invite Queen Butterfly, who was the most beautiful and elegant butterfly in the forest. As the big day got closer, the ants' excitement level went through the roof. By adding wildflowers, leaves, and rocks to their simple anthill, they turned it into a wonderful wonderland. Small tables with pebble seats were set up, and beautiful wreaths made of fragrant flower petals hung over the door, filling the room with a lovely scent. The day of the Ants' Birthday Party, the sun seemed to shine brighter, and the forest seemed to be buzzing with excitement. To celebrate Antonio's birthday, the little ants dressed in their cutest and brightest clothes gathered around his cake, which sparkled with colored crumbs and sugary dew. People from all over the world came to Antoinette's party because of her beautiful invites. Bugs like ladybugs, beetles, crickets, and even a friendly group of bumblebees hummed with happiness as they joined in the fun. To start the party off, the young ants planned a loud dance contest. Ladybugs moved smoothly, beetles tapped their feet to a jazzy beat, and ants did complicated dance moves they had been practicing for weeks. The forest animals were having a great time, and they were laughing and cheering the whole time. The leaves moved in a light breeze, and Queen Butterfly came down from the ceiling just as the party was starting. The anthill was filled with awe when she flew by. Her wings sparkled like a thousand rainbows. The young ants yelled, "Welcome, Queen Butterfly!" "Thank you for coming to our party."
