Book Description
The startling and ultimately uplifting narrative of one woman's thirteen-year experience as a foster parent. For more than a decade, Kathy Harrison has sheltered a shifting cast of troubled youngsters-the offspring of prostitutes and addicts; the sons and daughters of abusers; and teenage parents who aren't equipped for parenthood. All this, in addition to raising her three biological sons and two adopted daughters. What would motivate someone to give herself over to constant, largely uncompensated chaos? For Harrison, the answer is easy. Another Place at the Table is the story of life at our social services' front lines, centered on three children who, when they come together in Harrison's home, nearly destroy it. It is the frank first-person story of a woman whose compassionate best intentions for a child are sometimes all that stand between violence and redemption.

Restore the Table
Author: Ryan Rush
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1637632312
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
Restore the Table shows readers the importance of meaningful mealtimes and how gathering around a table with those we love can help build relationships, improve our quality of life, and go deeper in our walk with God. When is the last time you gathered around the dinner table with those you loved without distractions, having meaningful and intentional conversation? If you can’t remember, you’re not alone. Americans have lost the art of gathering around the table. Busy schedules, digital distractions, and loneliness plague us, making gathering around the table for a meal feel like something from the distant past. This is why Pastor Ryan Rush posed a challenge to his congregation: have five meaningful mealtimes with those you love each week. The challenge took off and what happened was transformative. Marriages were strengthened, siblings got along better, people who had struggled with addictions began to face them, students’ grades improved. The table changed everything. In Restore the Table, Pastor Rush offers this challenge to all readers who want to strengthen their relationships, improve their quality of life, and go deeper in their walk with God. In the book, he addresses: the tables of our pasts and how they’ve impacted us why Jesus chose mealtimes to build relationships with people outside his circle how to create a healthy and intentional mealtime habit with your loved ones how the table can establish your legacy for years to come Restore the Table will convince readers that the table is so much more than the place we eat. When used intentionally for discipleship and connection, the table can change the world.

Book Description
I am a woman in my late-20s and have a voice that needs to be heard. The voice of all women out there who feel they aren't good enough and struggle by being seen purely for their status, "single", in that they are viewed as an imperfection rather than something to be valued. With all my heart, soul and everything I have and beyond, I decided to write down all my experiences of my dating life for the past 6 years as a way for me to vent and find some sort of closure from all the pain and disappointment. Although I obtained a far greater gift from this process than I could have ever imagined. Through all of this, I created this book, which is my greatest accomplishment. I want to be able to impact at least one person, that is all it would take, to give them this same gift that I have given to myself. To be able to wake up everyday knowing that they aren't a failure because they are still single, and to not be ashamed of their past as those items are what have shaped them to become the person they are today. …I am just a woman from Long Island and I know I could help change the world with my voice. So this book is my mic and it’s my time to speak to the world, so listen…
