Book Description
In this book, you're going to read about a different kind of love story. It's a love story each and every one of us is currently playing a role in--whether we're aware of it or not. And truth be told, it's scary-critical that we stay tuned-in to this love story. Because outside of a growing relationship with your heavenly Father, no other love (or lack of love) has the potential to improve or implode your life like the love that you have for you. For anyone who has ever struggled with their identity, Landra Young Hughes has a radically simple message: give up. Specifically, give up your need to be in control of how other people see you. Instead, let God's words--not yours and not others'--define you. Through her own deeply personal story of trying to control her circumstances and others' perceptions of her through an eating disorder, Landra points the way toward a life free from self-obsession and self-resentment. She shows you how to listen to God's voice, let go of the struggle for perfection, and live authentically from your deepest self.

Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
How to Love When You Don't Feel Like Loving Everywhere we look, we see evidence that love is in short supply. Terrorists and political corruption, school shootings and troubled marriages, impatient online sniping and character assassination--all point to the fact that we do not know how to love one another as Jesus commanded and modeled. We put our own interests and happiness first, despite the fact that the greatest happiness comes through sacrificial love. In this book, Dr. Larry Crabb shows readers how to understand the deep and perfect love we are shown by our Creator and Redeemer, and how to pour that love into other people. This love is about more than being nice and serving others. It's about relating to others in such a way that they feel heard, seen, and valued. This love sacrifices and suffers and keeps loving, even when doing so is costly. This kind of love, says Crabb, is the kind worth fighting for in all of our relationships, and A Different Kind of Happiness shows how to make it a reality.

Book Description
A Different Kind of Love By: Edna Louise McQueen Plummer Margaret was a chic tall green-eyed beauty with curly red hair. She grew up in a large close-knit family. She was closest to her youngest sister, Betty-Jean. They were more than sisters. They were like best friends. Betty-Jean confided in her and kept no secrets. She’d tell Margaret her troubles and triumphs before she’d tell anyone. Margaret lived in a small quiet town, Hollis Hill, which was a warm and peaceful place. She was a head buyer for McQueen’s, a large department store chain, and had impeccable taste and fashion sense. She met Sherry on a business trip to the big city. Margaret preferred the comfort of her small town. She stopped off at a small bar for a drink, where she met Sherry. They hit it off right away. Sherry was a pretty brunette. She had a no-nonsense personality and a temper to match. She had a complicated history full of foster homes and sexual abuse, but Margaret fell head over heels. Betty-Jean and Sherry didn’t like each other. They only tolerated each other because of Margaret. As Sherry and Margaret’s relationship deepened, Betty-Jean and Sherry’s dislike for each other grew deeper. Sherry had started receiving crank calls and roses, which became a nuisance. Sherry and Margaret met the handsome Storm Winters at a launch party. He was from Tennessee. He was a business tycoon and a jetsetter. He took an instant liking to Margaret as she did to him. Margaret didn’t warm up to people right away. However, he was different. They became good friends. After that, their lives would never be the same.

Pages : 211
Book Description
Follow popular YouTubers Kaelin and Kyrah Edwards as they grow from young and in love, believing the hard part of life is over, to adulthood, filled with both challenges and opportunities. Kaelin and Kyrah Edward's viral video of 2016 (Crazy Girlfriend Throws iPhone in the Pool!) thrust them into the spotlight with a velocity that they never could have imagined. Since that time, they have grown up in front of their audience—they have built their relationship, gotten married, grown their family through the births of their two little boys. What began for them as the posting of a prank video has evolved into an engaged viewership of over 2 million on their various social channels that looks to them for guidance in how to make good life decisions. This Kind of Love follows the Edwards' family's adventure as they learn to live through the lens of God's promises and principles, such as: Waiting to have sex until marriage out of obedience to God's plan for our lives. Waiting to take the time to lay a foundation for our future rather than rushing to get on with life. Waiting for God's plan for our lives to be revealed. Waiting for God's timing. Waiting for God to refine our character. Waiting for one another to become who we will be. Waiting for God to come through when trouble comes. In This Kind of Love, Kaelin and Kyrah invite you to join their often tumultuous journey and experience—alongside of them—the joy and beauty that comes through waiting for God to do His work in our lives.
