With his big sister gone and his best friend suddenly the most popular kid in their class, Assaf spends his days at a lowly summer job in Jerusalem City Hall and his evenings alone, watching television and playing games on the Internet. One morning, Assaf's routine is interrupted by an absurd assignment: to find the owner of a stray yellow labrador. Meanwhile on the other side of the city, Tamar, a talented singer with a lonely, tempestuous soul, undertakes an equally unpromising mission: to rescue a young drug addict from the Jerusalem underworld ... and, eventually, to find her dog.

Download or read book Love Lives Here written by Maria Goff and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about discovering what we really need. There are a lot of second-best options, but we weren’t made to live a second-best life. Finding what we actually need is different than what we are often offered. There are many books full of opinions, steps and programs. This isn’t one of them. This is about craving the things that matter. Things that don’t just work, but last. In a life that may seem to be all fun and games with an endless supply of balloons, author Maria Goff shows how this life is also lived with intentionality, passionate purpose, and a little planning—all of which make a life rich in legacy. But she had to figure out the help she needed first in order to live the beautiful life God wanted for her and wants for us. Love Lives Here is a collection of stories that include the ways Maria and her husband, Bob, navigated family their way, without clear instructions or a road map. It’s about what they learned to make their lives meaningful and whimsical and how they created a space for their family to grow together while they reached outward. "What a gift to read Love Lives Here and find within it a friend who is as authentic and inviting as Maria Goff. Through her earnest telling of the stories of her life, she provides greater meaning to all our lives. We were thrilled to read this book." Donald Miller (bestselling author of Blue Like Jazz and Scary Close) with Betsy Miller "Grace is a contagious force we all crave and Maria contains so much grace it floods you from just a short time with her. May these pages overwhelm you with God’s love, and hope that Maria knows so well." Jennie Allen, Founder of IF: Gathering and Author of Nothing to Prove

But sometimes Moss still wishes he could be someone else—someone without panic attacks, someone whose father was still alive, someone who hadn’t become a rallying point for a community because of one horrible night. And most of all, he wishes he didn’t feel so stuck. Moss can’t even escape at school—he and his friends are subject to the lack of funds and crumbling infrastructure at West Oakland High, as well as constant intimidation by the resource officer stationed in their halls. That was even before the new regulations—it seems sometimes that the students are treated more like criminals. Something will have to change—but who will listen to a group of teens? When tensions hit a fever pitch and tragedy strikes again, Moss must face a difficult choice: give in to fear and hate or realize that anger can actually be a gift.

Download or read book Someone I Love Lives Here written by Justine Moore Sloan and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the peak of Justine Moore Sloan’s fitness career, she appeared to have it all— two million followers on social media, chiseled abs, lucrative brand endorsements, and endless praise and validation. But behind the meticulously-polished exterior was an anxious, tormented, and painfully insecure young woman desperately longing for true love and acceptance. In this candidly-written memoir, Sloan chronicles her journey from being the “fat kid,” teased in grade school, to being an internationally acclaimed fitness model, fueled by a deep-rooted sense of inadequacy. Sloan takes a sledgehammer to the societal pressures we put on girls and women to look perfect— and teaches you how to burn the rule book and reclaim your power. Her story illuminates how to ultimately love and respect your body and yourself in a way that says, “someone I love lives here.” Book Review: "Raw, brutally honest, funny, and powerful. Someone I Love Lives Here should be on every woman's bookshelf." -- Lori Harder, Founder of Lite Pink and Best-Selling Author of “A Tribe Called Bliss”
