Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Reader, curiosity made you pick up this book. Perhaps hope will compel you to read it. As victims of any form of abuse-be it emotional, mental, physical, or sexual-we are brainwashed by our tormentors to believe that not only do we deserve what we are getting, but also that we are alone. We're told no one will believe us or, if we tell, we will be the ones blamed. This is what the monsters who torments us want us to believe, so they carefully groom us to be quiet and compliant. Silence is their best weapon and their protection. I finally, through faith, found the courage to raise my voice and to share my story of the years of abuse I was subjected to. By doing so, I took away their power over me. I hope that in reading my story, you, dear reader, will see that you are not alone, that you never have been because there's others just like you. Once you have read about my journey, I sincerely hope that you will find your own courage, faith, and strength to raise your voice against the abuse the innocents are suffering each and every day. May you find peace and forgiveness for yourself as you travel along with me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of deeply personal thoughts, reflections and feelings sprinkled throughout the author’s journey toward healing, and wholeness. As she leans on her faith you will experience real time feelings of hopelessness and the questions raised when facing past trauma. None of us choose to go through deep pain or struggle. And we all have times when peace seems so far from our reach. It’s this longing that creates our desire to sprint through our valleys, giving little thought to the lessons we may learn along the way. If you are going through something, in the midst of overcoming, or reflecting on past lessons you will resonate with the courage it takes to keep moving forward, and the brightness of God’s grace and mercy during our darkest moments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Illuminates with cutting truth the layers of longing and grief which underlie a transracial adoption . . . sharply written, intense, and page-turning.” —Randy Susan Meyers, bestselling author of Waisted Rowan Kelly knows she’s lucky. After all, if she hadn’t been adopted, she could have spent her days in a rice paddy, or a windowless warehouse assembling iPhones—they make iPhones in Korea, right? Either way, slowly dying of boredom on Long Island is surely better than the alternative. But as she matures, she realizes that she’ll never know if she has her mother’s eyes, or if she’d be in America at all had her adoptive parents been able to conceive. Rowan sets out to prove that she can be someone’s first choice. After running away from home—and her parents’ rules—and ending up beaten, barefoot, and topless on a Pennsylvania street courtesy of Bad Boy Number One, Rowan attaches herself to Never-Going-to-Commit. When that doesn’t work out, she fully abandons self-respect and begins browsing Craigslist personals. But as Rowan dives deeper into the world of casual encounters with strangers, she discovers what she’s really looking for. With a fresh voice and a quick wit, Lauren J. Sharkey dispels the myths surrounding transracial adoption, the ties that bind, and what it means to belong. A Finalist for Foreword Review’s 2020 INDIES Book of the Year Award in Adult Fiction—Multicultural “Stirring . . . a moving account of Rowan’s difficult reckoning with her identity. This is an adept portrayal of the long shadow of abuse and the difficulty of being an adoptee.” —Publishers Weekly

Download or read book An Inconvenient Apocalypse written by Wes Jackson and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confronting harsh ecological realities and the multiple cascading crises facing our world today, An Inconvenient Apocalypse argues that humanity’s future will be defined not by expansion but by contraction. For decades, our world has understood that we are on the brink of an apocalypse—and yet the only implemented solutions have been small and convenient, feel-good initiatives that avoid unpleasant truths about the root causes of our impending disaster. Wes Jackson and Robert Jensen argue that we must reconsider the origins of the consumption crisis and the challenges we face in creating a survivable future. Longstanding assumptions about economic growth and technological progress—the dream of a future of endless bounty—are no longer tenable. The climate crisis has already progressed beyond simple or nondisruptive solutions. The end result will be apocalyptic; the only question now is how bad it will be. Jackson and Jensen examine how geographic determinism shaped our past and led to today’s social injustice, consumerist culture, and high-energy/high-technology dystopias. The solution requires addressing today’s systemic failures and confronting human nature by recognizing the limits of our ability to predict how those failures will play out over time. Though these massive challenges can feel overwhelming, Jackson and Jensen weave a secular reading of theological concepts—the prophetic, the apocalyptic, a saving remnant, and grace—to chart a collective, realistic path for humanity not only to survive our apocalypse but also to emerge on the other side with a renewed appreciation of the larger living world.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Good Luck with That comes a new novel about a blue-blood grandmother and her black-sheep granddaughter who discover they are truly two sides of the same coin. Emma London never thought she had anything in common with her grandmother Genevieve London. The regal old woman came from wealthy and bluest-blood New England stock, but that didn't protect her from life's cruelest blows: the disappearance of Genevieve's young son, followed by the premature death of her husband. But Genevieve rose from those ashes of grief and built a fashion empire that was respected the world over, even when it meant neglecting her other son. When Emma's own mother died, her father abandoned her on his mother's doorstep. Genevieve took Emma in and reluctantly raised her--until Emma got pregnant her senior year of high school. Genevieve kicked her out with nothing but the clothes on her back...but Emma took with her the most important London possession: the strength not just to survive but to thrive. And indeed, Emma has built a wonderful life for herself and her teenage daughter, Riley. So what is Emma to do when Genevieve does the one thing Emma never expected of her and, after not speaking to her for nearly two decades, calls and asks for help?

Download or read book Redeemed to Overcome written by Pope and published by Charisma Media. This book was released on 2005-12-29 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drexel L. Pope, Sr. offers hope and motivation to those who are suffering, and helps readers understand what it takes to battle through and overcome the problems they face today. To do this, Pope says, readers must remember that God measures success differently than man. To become an overcomer, readers must learn to turn away from all elements of self-will, independence, self-centeredness, and isolation and embrace total dependence upon and trust in the Lord. The greatest hindrance for Christians to live an overcoming life is neither a charming world nor a clever devil. Instead, it is the deceitful carnal nature of a fallen self-life. Pope offers an insightful scripture-laden study of what and how Jesus overcame so we may gain understanding on how to follow His lead. It is not an easy task, one that is full of challenge and promise. The challenge is to overcome evil for the glory of God. The promise is that if we do so, we will sit with Christ on his throne. About the Author In 1992, Pastor Drexel L. Pope Sr. and his wife founded an independent charismatic church in the Phoenix, Arizona., area. He also leads and moderates a unique community Bible discussion group using the expository approach to Bible study. Pope, who was born again in April 1953 while attending the Church of God in Clovis, New Mexico, retired from teaching after 29 years in 1988. Recent Release: Christ Glorious Bride
