Book excerpt: When Molly McMaster receives an unheard-of diagnosis of colon cancer on her 23rd birthday, she finds that her worst fear isn't that she might die, but rather that she will become "that poor little sick girl." Instead, she chooses to answer back with creative, funny, sexy, and out-of-the-box ideas that inadvertently begin to change the view of this "old man's disease." This is no kumbaya cancer trip. Follow Molly as she generates national "colon" headlines by skating 2,000 miles across the country, building a giant colon, and helping to create The Colon Club, a national non-profit with the goal of raising awareness of colorectal cancer, especially in young people. An inspirational story of courage and overcoming the odds, this candid memoir is the ultimate story of how every rainstorm begins with just a single drop of rain. *A portion of the profit from every book sold will be given to the nonprofit The Colon Club to help further educational efforts.

Book excerpt: On a rainy April evening in 1993, a serial killer responding to a Craigslist ad for Heather Callahan's used car attacked her on the street in front of her Denver home and left her for dead.

Heather not only survived in the aftermath of this terrible attack, she thrived, her indomitable spirit a testament to her physical, emotional, and psychological recovery. She came to understand this unexpected and powerful blossoming as Post Traumatic Growth.

Indeed, she is living proof that the most horrific traumas we face may also, in the long run, be the most significant turning points in our lives.

Download or read book Drops Of Rain written by Beverly Fontenot and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drops of Rain contains insight about the book of Revelation, which started being received about the year 2006. They started arriving as rain. They seemed to provide refreshment for one's soul. Each drop of rain suggests a new and different interpretation about an "old theme." These revelations are shared through new outlooks on various topics in the Scripture such as grief, obedience, love, pride, fear, choice, regret, and redemption. Drops of Rain includes a secondary book, "Chewing on the Word" (COW). COW proceeds to breakdown Revelation in further detail, shedding light on the tribulations to come, the wrath of God, the harvest of his people, the judgement of America, and his coming and return of Jerusalem.
