Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a sad truth of which we live today. That there will be many who will never open a Bible. They will never read it. Perhaps they are afraid of what they will find in that great black book, with its words written-The Holy Bible in gold font. But if they see a believer they have already read it! The most powerful and impacting sermons are not the ones a preacher preaches from a pulpit. The most impacting messages are the ones we live after the microphones are off and there is no longer an audience. Each one of us that have met Jesus has a Gospel with a distinct message. I invite you to know the gospel according to (Nuni). With a dream of being a great preacher yet is threatened by terminal cancer. That disease threatened to destroy that dream with a diagnostic of six months to live¿? Have you been told God doesn't exist? Or do you believe that he is not real. That miracles don't exist, or they existed but have ceased to exist. I invite you to be encouraged to read the pages of this book. Rest assured after reading this gospel you will be inspired to know Jesus. If you already know him you will desire to get even closer to him. You shall be inspired to reach the unreachable. For all things are possible to him who believes.

Download or read book Lifespan written by David A. Sinclair and published by Atria Books. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant and enthralling.”​ —The Wall Street Journal A paradigm-shifting book from an acclaimed Harvard Medical School scientist and one of Time’s most influential people. It’s a seemingly undeniable truth that aging is inevitable. But what if everything we’ve been taught to believe about aging is wrong? What if we could choose our lifespan? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. David Sinclair, leading world authority on genetics and longevity, reveals a bold new theory for why we age. As he writes: “Aging is a disease, and that disease is treatable.” This eye-opening and provocative work takes us to the frontlines of research that is pushing the boundaries on our perceived scientific limitations, revealing incredible breakthroughs—many from Dr. David Sinclair’s own lab at Harvard—that demonstrate how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging. The key is activating newly discovered vitality genes, the descendants of an ancient genetic survival circuit that is both the cause of aging and the key to reversing it. Recent experiments in genetic reprogramming suggest that in the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger. Through a page-turning narrative, Dr. Sinclair invites you into the process of scientific discovery and reveals the emerging technologies and simple lifestyle changes—such as intermittent fasting, cold exposure, exercising with the right intensity, and eating less meat—that have been shown to help us live younger and healthier for longer. At once a roadmap for taking charge of our own health destiny and a bold new vision for the future of humankind, Lifespan will forever change the way we think about why we age and what we can do about it.

Book excerpt: You may think you know how this cancer story goes. The characters: a little boy, a loving family, the team of doctors. The diagnosis: terminal, little hope for a cure. There are two possible outcomes. Will his family be plunged into extreme sorrow or miraculous joy? What if the answer was both? Ellie Poole Ewoldt debuts with a memoir of desperate hope and fierce love; of a family who refused to give up even when they heard the worst possible news for their two-year-old son, Chase. Moment by moment, the Ewoldts faced brain surgery and chemo, spinal taps and transfusions. And yet, the true miracle lay not in the medicine or Chase’s prognosis—rather, Chase’s life shows us the miracle of hope, even through the darkest nights. If there is anything he and the Ewoldts have learned, it is that God is always good and will stay at your side through every moment, no matter what it holds. You’ll fall in love with Chase through his story and be inspired to help chase away cancer—for this headstrong boy, his fighting friends, and all those in your own life who need hope for whatever tomorrow may bring.

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.

It’s been a hectic six months, and as the friends head into the heat of summer, more trials await that will truly test the bonds of friendship. For whilst a circle may contract and may even at times constrict, it can also expand, accommodate, embrace. And it is always whole. Eternal. Set over a period of six months (July–December), In The Stars Part II continues to explore the day-to-day lives of The Circle—nine friends from high school, now in their late thirties—following them through a year of celebration, loss, illness and life-changing decisions.

After all it’s hard for a gal to detox with a glass of red wine in one hand and a bucket of KFC in the other. Only one slight snag – Judi also has cancer, and this new regimen is supposed to be a vital part of her healing! In her first book, which is both rollicking adventure and poignant memoir, Judi writes what may well be the ultimate ‘how not to cure yourself’ guide as she struggles with an eating disorder and her own insecurity. Throw in a 5kg tumour, an eccentric 84-year-old uncle and an antagonistic family and you have the perfectrecipe for mayhem. Judi bravely shares her story as she struggles to find an answer to the question, “Just who is the girl in the picture?” It became a quest that included enemas in India and stuff-ups in the Philippines, as well as a reconnection with her family after a 25-year absence. Eventually, Judi must decide if she will ever be able to stick to a diet or whether she should just quit and have surgery. Writing with charm and black humour, Judi finally makes her choice while facing the most important question of all: “Will I still look good in a bikini?” She finds her answer eventually – it only took five years of introspection to be ready. Her message is simple – we are okay as we are. It took her a lifetime and a tumour to figure it out. You will find yourself cheering Judi along as she lurches from one remedy to the next. If you have tried – and tried – to change your life, this book will help you smile more kindly upon yourself while you work out how to do things YOUR way.
