Book excerpt: Shattered but Unbroken is an edited volume focusing on Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which combines the narratives of survivors of ritual abuse with academic contributions on the causes, correlates and interventions applicable to DID. The book is divided into two distinct parts. Part 1 begins with the missing memoir of Anna, a survivor of ritual abuse. Anna chose not to publish her memoir for fear of retribution from her perpetrators. The plight of Anna is interwoven between all the contributions in the book, be they life writing or academic contributions. So too are the life writings of Annalise, writing under pseudonym. Instead of using Anna's memoir, the politics of anonymity is addressed by a range of survivors of ritual abuse, who write about their decision to use their real name in their narratives, or to use pseudonyms. Part 2 of the book contains academic contributions, which deal with the causes, correlates and interventions applicable to the most common response to ritual abuse, DID.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE • Look for special features inside. Join the Random House Reader’s Circle for author chats and more. In boyhood, Louis Zamperini was an incorrigible delinquent. As a teenager, he channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics. But when World War II began, the athlete became an airman, embarking on a journey that led to a doomed flight on a May afternoon in 1943. When his Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean, against all odds, Zamperini survived, adrift on a foundering life raft. Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor; brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will.

Book excerpt: The definition of the word “whole” is to be complete or full : not lacking or leaving out any part. That is what takes place when we are made unbroken, we are mended by Jesus Christ. He fills the gaps and heals the broken pieces of our lives. He takes an impossible situation, one with a million pieces and restores it back to one piece. He doesn't just restore it back to its natural condition but transforms it into something better than before. Only God can truly restore. Throughout this book Jeremy will unpack the reasons his life became broken, even when he attempted to paint the pretty picture. He will tell you the journey of how God restored Jeremy back to Him and how He helped him rediscover his purpose in this world. Throughout this book the author will share some biblical truths that will give you hope and bring you out of the depths of your circumstances into the loving arms of Jesus, right where you belong. This book is for the broken people in the world, which includes all of us. Whether you have been broken by tragedy, divorce, loss, bad relationships or even by disappointment, this book is for you. What unfolds in the pages of this book is a testimony that God can heal the most broken pieces of your life. The things that have been burned in the chapters of your soul, can be resurrected, just as Jesus Himself was resurrected and conquered the grave. God can take what was broken and make it unbroken. Through the power of Jesus, you can come back from certain defeat, even when the world tells you it's inconceivable. Through His everlasting grace, restoration will not just be a pipe dream or a lofty ideal, but a vivid reality. Through His love, pure joy can be renewed or maybe even discovered for the first time. Through His mercy, hope will shine through even the darkest corridors of your life. Let the words of this book wash over your soul as encouragement and as a stark reminder that nothing is too difficult for our God to handle and no one is ever too lost to be rescued.Praise for Unbroken "Jeremy has given us a raw and open look at his life and family, both good and bad. His honesty allows all of us to vicariously assess the strength of our own commitment to our families and to see possible warning signs ahead. It also gives us a great portrait of Gods grace in real life, and the hope that He truly can redeem even our biggest failures." - Brett Rickey, Pastor of Highland Park Church, Author of Boomerang and Chasing Cool "His story is as real as it is relatable, and he shares it without pretense alongside the wisdom he's gained along the way. Any leader will benefit from Unbroken, but especially those who live under the spotlight of ministry.” - Tim Stevens, Author of Vision: Lost & Found and Pop Goes the Church "Jeremy gives us a glimpse of that process from its roots to a place of restoration. Knowing that we all have moments of great need for restoration, the reader will find an engaging and hopeful story that teaches us to reach from the pit to the pinnacle." - Dr. Mark Gregory, Pastor, Calvary Baptist Church, Author of Net Trigger and The Crossing Ward "Honesty. Humility. Hope. These three words capture the real heart behind Jeremy Johnson's Unbroken. For anyone who's life has ever taken an unexpected u-turn--leaving you hopeless, confused, and heartbroken--Jeremy's journey will inspire and encourage you to refocus and get back in the game. Unbroken will help you understand that defeat can be life-changing in the most positive of ways, if you only allow it." – Adam York, Editor, Collegiate Magazine "I didn't know how much I needed Unbroken, for me, until I finished. It reminded me that my story is the most powerful thing I can share with others. Unbroken will remind you why the journey is important and necessary. Your best days are in front of you!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unflinching memoir by a working nurse As a child, Mary Jane Nealon dreams of growing up to become a saint or, failing that, a nurse. She idolizes Clara Barton, Kateri Tekakwitha, and Molly Pitcher, whose biographies she reads and rereads. But by the time she follows her calling to nursing school, her beloved younger brother is diagnosed with cancer, which challenges her to bring hope and healing closer to home. His death leaves her shattered, and she flees into her work, and into poetry. Beautiful Unbroken details Nealon's life of caregiving, from her years as a flying nurse, untethered and free to follow friends and jobs from the Southwest to Savannah, to more somber years in New York City, treating men in a homeless shelter on the Bowery and working in the city's first AIDS wards. In this compelling and revealing memoir, Nealon brings a poet's sensitivity to bear on the hard truths of disease and recovery, life and death.

This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years after that night, my memories of what happened after he held the blade to my throat and threatened my life were fragmented... difficult to piece together. It was too extreme, too violent for me to understand. Violently gang-raped when she was thirteen years old, and raped three more times before the age of eighteen, Madeleine has experienced more trauma in her life than most ever will. Living in a state of shock and self-loathing, it took her years of struggle to confront the buried memories of that first attack and begin to undo the damage. Yet, after growing up with a burden no teenager should ever have to shoulder, she found the heart to carry out the best revenge plan of all: leading a fulfilling and happy life. But the road to piecing her life back together was long and painful. For Madeleine, forgiveness was the key. True forgiveness takes genuine effort. It is the ultimate act of courage. In Unbroken, Madeleine tells her moving and empowering story, as she discovers that our lives are not defined by what knocks us down - they are defined by how we get back up.

By combining scientific research with personal stories, spiritual insight, and practical next steps, Sacred Rest gives the weary permission to embrace rest, set boundaries, and seek sanctuary without any guilt, shame, or fear.
