Author: Troy Payne
Publisher: Trafford Publishing

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Adversity discriminates against no one. We all face challenges and obstacles throughout our lives. We all have a story to tell. How can we stop the cycles of abuse and addictions now, rather than ignoring them and finding ourselves dealing with them in the future? How can we encourage, empower, and inspire people to make healthy choices, to embrace lifeto love themselves and those around them? Our personal realities are only our perception of our experiences. Two people can share the exact same experience and yet have two completely different views on that experience. Abuse is often viewed in this manner. The Road to Resiliency presents a true story as told from Kyles perspective, sharing his memories of his experiences. In the aftermath of Kyles devastating personal journey, many figures in this story have denied the facts. Although convinced that a higher power was guiding him and telling him to forgive, Kyle found himself confused. Understanding that divergence between memories and truth provides the first step to stopping the cycle of abuse. The Road to Resiliency offers an opportunity to discover how to triumph over the damaging effects of adversity and abuse to make the past really past.

Wolf's Cross
Author: S. A. Swann
Publisher: Spectra
ISBN: 0345521722
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
S. A. Swann continues to reinvent the werewolf myth in this fantastic new novel set in the medieval world of the celebrated Wolfbreed. Like its predecessor, Wolf’s Cross is unafraid to cross boundaries and break taboos to tell an unforgettable story of romance and adventure that will forever change how you think about werewolves. Maria lives a simple life in a small Polish village, working for the lord of the nearby fortress. Motherless since birth, Maria has been raised by her father and stepmother. Around her neck she wears—as she has always worn—a silver crucifix, to protect her from the devil. Or so her father tells her. But when a contingent of badly mauled Teutonic knights, including a handsome and gravely wounded young man named Josef, ask for succor at the fortress, Maria’s quiet and comfortable world shatters. For the knights are Wolfjägers, an order dedicated to the extermination of werewolves, and Maria, unknowingly, is one of the creatures they hunt. Only the crucifix about her neck prevents her body from changing into a lethal killing machine. When Maria meets Darien, a wolfbreed bent on exacting a terrible revenge on humans, she will learn the truth about herself, and find her loyalties—and her heart—torn in two.

The Good Shepherd, Gentle Guide, and Gracious Host
Author: Patrick Allen
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532677103
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
The Good Shepherd, Gentle Guide, and Gracious Host is a collection of fifteen discipleship meditations, organized around three metaphors from the Twenty-Third Psalm. Why does the Twenty-Third Psalm connect so profoundly with the human spirit, whether we are grieving, hoping, or suffering? The answer has much to do with the approachable, inviting metaphors for God that are expressed in this psalm—the good shepherd, the gentle guide, and the gracious host, as well as the full range of human emotions that rise up within us when we read them. Each chapter contains a powerful personal story told by one of the Northwest’s best storytellers, an inviting meditation from a line of the psalm, the wisdom of Scripture, some words of practical advice, and questions for reflection and discussion. Suited for personal devotions or small discipleship groups, The Good Shepherd, Gentle Guide, and Gracious Host invites all of us to an adventure of grace, healing, and hope, seeing God as approachable, good, loving, and kind. As our understanding of God’s love and care matures, our spiritual journeys will take on a new character, too. This book will highlight the path ahead, providing fence posts, guide posts, and lamp posts as we make our way home.
