Gillian Locke has been beaten, battered, and bruised, but her ex-boyfriend still hasn’t managed to break her. When she leaves Kyle for the last time, she knows the only way she’ll ever be back in his grasp is over her dead body. On the run, her car disastrously breaks down in at the top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere. Stuck in a terrible snowstorm, Gillian figures it’s better to die at the hands of nature, than at the hands of Kyle, her tormentor.

Hope Heals
Author: Katherine Wolf
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310344557
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
When all seems lost, where can you find hope? Katherine and Jay Wolf married right after college and sought adventure far from home in Los Angeles, CA. As they pursued their dreams--she as a model and he as a lawyer--they planted their lives in the city and their church community. Their son, James, came along unexpectedly in the fall of 2007, and just six months later, everything changed in a moment for this young family. On April 21, 2008, as James slept in the other room, Katherine collapsed, suffering a massive brain stem stroke without warning. Miraculously, Jay came home in time and called for help. Katherine was immediately rushed into brain surgery, though her chance of survival was slim. As the sun rose the next morning, the surgeon proclaimed that Katherine had survived the removal of part of her brain, though her future recovery was uncertain. Yet in that moment, there was a spark of hope. Through forty days on life support in the ICU and nearly two years in full-time brain rehab, that small spark of hope was fanned into flame. Hope Heals documents Katherine and Jay's journey as they struggled to regain Katherine's quality of life and as she relearned to talk, eat, and walk. As Katherine returned home with a severely disabled body but a completely renewed purpose, she and Jay committed to celebrating this gift of a second chance by embracing life fully, even though that life looked very different than they could have ever imagined. As you uncover Katherine and Jay's remarkable story, you'll be encouraged to: Find lasting hope in the midst of struggle Embrace the unexpected Welcome God's miracles into your everyday life In the midst of continuing hardships, both in body and mind, Katherine and Jay found what we all long to find: a hope that heals the most broken place--our souls. Let Hope Heals be your guide along the way. Praise for Hope Heals: "As I read this book, tears streamed from my eyes even as joy flooded my heart. Jay and Katherine are a raw yet refreshing testimony to the unshakable trustworthiness of God amidst the unimaginable trials of life. This book reminds all of us where hope can be found in a world where none of us know what the next day holds." --David Platt, author of the New York Times bestseller Radical and president of the International Mission Board "Hope Heals is a beautiful, true story that illustrates the love and protection God has for us even in the darkest times of our lives. Katherine and Jay's dedication to each other and the Lord through their most devastating season is inspiring. This book will help your heart believe that He sees, He knows, He cares, and He is still working miracles today!" --Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries

Pages : 37
Book Description
As a person in this era, a complicated world full of emotion that is more acceptable to bring forth in all situations, it can be difficult to find not your voice but your soul. Most of us today have been taught by our parents, peers, or perhaps sometimes even a stranger how to use our voice, how to stand up for ourselves, how to judge, distrust, and have an opinion. However, in a world so smart and accepting of emotion, we have forgotten or dont know at all to honor our soul. Such an important part of who we are as people, and for many of us, we dont take the time to nurture it at all. I dont believe a soul needs monetary things; it doesnt feel hate, anger, jealousy, distrust, or judgment. It is the truest form of our being and is exempt of such loud negativity that we label emotion. We claim its now acceptable as it somehow makes us an individual, therefore, something to take pride inshame on us. What would it be like without these emotions? Personally, its a secret dream of mine. In my strangest state, I often wonder, if we were to be able to leave conjured emotion alone and only feed or honor the soul, could we then be on a higher plane? A different space, if you will, away from reality. Among the rest of the living things that are without ego-driven state but only the purest of motivation to feed what lays within.
