Book excerpt: The book Walking Wounded teaches the reader how to identify their own personal wounds in life and provides step-by-step instruction on how to resolve those wounds and come to a place of wholeness. Herein, Dr. Mark Jones takes the reader through three key processes to obtain healing: resolving your past, restoring your health, and retraining your thinking. The book not only teaches how to resolve the past on an emotional, spiritual, mental and relationship level, but also how to be restored to health through a re-established sense of self-worth. The definition of a wound is, "an experience that produces pain or even trauma which creates a memory and a sense of loss, regret or even death of some kind." Wounds can either be self-inflicted or can be inflicted by other people or unfortunate situations. Walking Wounded encourages the reader to examine their life and reach out for professional help rather than attempt to resolve everything by themselves. Within its pages, Dr. Mark Jones provides the help needed to do so and in turn shows the reader how to identify their giftings, strengths and talents, In reading this book, you too will find the tools you need in order to identify the wounds that have hurt you, receive healing, and discover your strengths and giftings and how to use them with confidence to live a successful and fulfilling life while maximizing your God - given potential.

Book excerpt: Sherwood O'Neal and Art Johnson--back from an unpopular war and unable to fit into the lives they left to serve their country--are building a new life in a remote cabin in South Dakota's Black Hills. That life is disrupted by the death of Sherwood's sister, which leaves him the only living relative of her four-year-old son, Jamie. Reluctantly, Sherwood accepts his responsibility to do 'something' for his nephew, which takes the two recovering soldiers back to California where they are forced to confront both the fall-out from their service and the lives they had sought to escape.Through the confusion and uncertainty of a society trying to reconcile itself with the fact that The United States of America is losing a war, Sherwood and Art come face to face with the collateral damage of that war on the home front. Slowly they realize that the Army didn't create all their problems, as surely as getting out didn't fix them, and that the hippies were right. The only thing that really matters is love.

Book Among the Walking Wounded

Download or read book Among the Walking Wounded written by John Conrad and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2017-04-29 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping account of PTSD, and a stark reminder that, for many, wars go on long after the last shot is fired. In the shadows of army life is a world where friends become monsters, where kindness twists into assault, and where self-loathing and despair become constant companions. Whether you know it by old names like “soldier’s heart,” “shell shock,” or “combat fatigue,” post-traumatic stress disorder has left deep and silent wounds throughout history in the ranks of fighting forces. Among the Walking Wounded tells one veteran’s experience of PTSD through an intimate personal account, as visceral as it is blunt. In a courageous story of descent and triumph, it tackles the stigma of PTSD head-on and brings an enduring message of struggle and hope for wounded Canadian veterans. This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about Canadian veterans and the dark war they face long after their combat service is ended.

Book This Body I Wore

Download or read book This Body I Wore written by Diana Goetsch and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2022-05-24 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Washington Post Best Book of the Year A captivating memoir of one woman’s long journey to late transition, as the trans community emerges alongside her. “Achingly beautiful.” —Manuel Betancourt, The New York Times Book Review Long before Laverne Cox appeared on the cover of Time, far removed from drag and ballroom culture, there were countless trans women living and dying as men, most of whom didn’t even know they were trans. Diana Goetsch’s This Body I Wore chronicles one woman’s long journey to coming out, a path that runs parallel to the emergence of the trans community over the past several decades. “How can you spend your life face-to-face with an essential fact about yourself and still not see it?” This is a question often asked of trans people, and a question that Goetsch, an award-winning poet and essayist, addresses with the power and complexity of lived reality. She brings us into her childhood, her time as a dynamic and beloved teacher at New York City’s Stuyvesant High School, and her plunge into the city’s crossdressing subculture in the 1980s and ’90s. Under cover of night, crossdressers risked their jobs and their safety to give expression to urges they could neither control nor understand. Many would become late transitioners, the Cinderellas of the trans community largely ignored by history. Goetsch has written not a transition memoir, but rather a full account of a trans life, one both unusually public and closeted. All too often trans lives are reduced to before-and-after photos, but what if that before photo lasted fifty years?

Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED FOR THE PAUL TORDAY MEMORIAL PRIZE 'An expertly imagined novel about war's long trail of damage, and about healing intentions gone savagely wrong.' Hilary Mantel 'The atmosphere of the late forties is brilliantly evoked . . . a compassionate and compelling account of post traumatic stress in veterans of the Second World War while bringing individual patients and their psychiatrists vividly to life.' Pat Barker Set in Northfield, an understaffed military psychiatric hospital immediately before the NHS is founded, Walking Wounded is the story of a doctor and his patient: David Reece, a young journalist-to be whose wartime experiences in Burma have come back to haunt him violently; and Daniel Carter, one of the senior psychiatrists, a man who is fighting his own battles as well as those of his patients. This moving and impressive debut explores violence and how much harm it does to those forced to inflict it in the name of war. It also captures the dilemmas of the medics themselves as they attempt to 'fix' their patients, each of whom raise the question of what has happened to their humanity, what can be done to help them, and what we are willing to sacrifice in the name of healing.

Book Perfectly Wounded

Download or read book Perfectly Wounded written by Mike Day and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The incredible true story of former Navy SEAL Mike Day, who survived being shot twenty-seven times while deployed in Iraq. On the night of April 6, 2007, in Iraq's Anbar Province, Senior Chief Mike Day, his team of Navy SEALs, and a group of Iraqi scouts were on the hunt for a high-level al Qaeda cell. Day was the first to enter a 12x12 room where four terrorist leaders were waiting in ambush. When the gunfight was over, he took out all four terrorists in the room, but not before being shot twenty-seven times and hit with grenade shrapnel. Miraculously, Day cleared the rest of the house and rescued six women and children before walking out on his own to an awaiting helicopter, which flew him to safety. While in the hospital, the Navy SEAL lost fifty-five pounds in two weeks. It took almost two years for Day to physically recover from his injuries, although he still deals with pain. Like so many veterans, doctors diagnosed Day with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury -- the invisible wounds of war. Perfectly Wounded is the remarkable story of an American hero whose incredible survival defies explanation, and whose blessed life of service continues in the face of unimaginable odds.

Book Walking with God through Pain and Suffering

Download or read book Walking with God through Pain and Suffering written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet Timothy Keller—whose books have sold millions of copies to both religious and secular readers—explores one of the most difficult questions we must answer in our lives: Why is there pain and suffering? Walking with God through Pain and Suffering is the definitive Christian book on why bad things happen and how we should respond to them. The question of why there is pain and suffering in the world has confounded every generation; yet there has not been a major book from a Christian perspective exploring why they exist for many years. The two classics in this area are When Bad Things Happen to Good People by Rabbi Harold S. Kushner, which was published more than thirty years ago, and C. S. Lewis’s The Problem of Pain, published more than seventy years ago. The great secular book on the subject, Elisabeth Ku¨bler-Ross’s On Death and Dying, was first published in 1969. It’s time for a new understanding and perspective, and who better to tackle this complex subject than Timothy Keller? As the pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan, Timothy Keller is known for the unique insights he shares, and his series of books has guided countless readers in their spiritual journeys. Walking with God through Pain and Suffering will bring a much-needed, fresh viewpoint on this important issue.
