An unbelievably believable story about the afterlife, with documenting photographs from the former publisher of a major metropolitan newspaper. In 2004, Janis Heaphy Durham's husband, Max Besler, died of cancer at age 56. The daughter of a Presbyterian minister, she practiced her faith as she struggled with her loss. Soon she began encountering phenomena unlike anything she'd ever experienced: lights flickering, doors opening and closing, clocks stopping at 12:44, the exact time of Max's death. But then something startling happened that changed Heaphy Durham's life forever. A powdery handprint appeared on her bathroom mirror on the first anniversary of Max's death. This launched Heaphy Durham on a journey that transformed her spiritually and altered her view of reality forever. She interviewed scientists and spiritual practitioners along the way, as she discovered that the veil between this world and the next is thin and it's love that bridges the two worlds.

The Mirror and the Palette
Author: Jennifer Higgie
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1643138049
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
A dazzlingly original and ambitious book on the history of female self-portraiture by one of today's most well-respected art critics. Her story weaves in and out of time and place. She's Frida Kahlo, Loïs Mailou Jones and Amrita Sher-Gil en route to Mexico City, Paris or Bombay. She's Suzanne Valadon and Gwen John, craving city lights, the sea and solitude; she's Artemisia Gentileschi striding through the streets of Naples and Paula Modersohn-Becker in Worpswede. She's haunting museums in her paint-stained dress, scrutinising how El Greco or Titian or Van Dyck or Cézanne solved the problems that she too is facing. She's railing against her corsets, her chaperones, her husband and her brothers; she's hammering on doors, dreaming in her bedroom, working day and night in her studio. Despite the immense hurdles that have been placed in her way, she sits at her easel, picks up a mirror and paints a self-portrait because, as a subject, she is always available. Until the twentieth century, art history was, in the main, written by white men who tended to write about other white men. The idea that women in the West have always made art was rarely cited as a possibility. Yet they have - and, of course, continue to do so - often against tremendous odds, from laws and religion to the pressures of family and public disapproval. In The Mirror and the Palette, Jennifer Higgie introduces us to a cross-section of women artists who embody the fact that there is more than one way to understand our planet, more than one way to live in it and more than one way to make art about it. Spanning 500 years, biography and cultural history intertwine in a narrative packed with tales of rebellion, adventure, revolution, travel and tragedy enacted by women who turned their back on convention and lived lives of great resilience, creativity and bravery.

Book Description
Beyond the Mirror: Seeing Yourself the Way God Sees You is a discipleship resource designed to help women find their true identity and worth in Christ. The goal of Beyond the Mirror is to teach Biblical truths of how and why we were created, in order to steer women in the direction of their true purpose and calling. Beyond the Mirror answers the question of "Why am I here?" by exploring how we are created to relate, reflect, and reign. When women see themselves the way God sees them, their potential is limitless. The problem is many women do not know where to start to find their identity and purpose. Beyond the Mirror provides tools and exercises for personal study and application, intending to lead women into the life they were created to live. Beyond the Mirror is written in a way non-believers can fully understand the Gospel of Christ, while believers new and old are challenged to grow spiritually. Each chapter has three parts: Biblical Examination, Reflection Questions, and Spiritual Disciplines. Biblical Examination consists of Scripture and commentary to help further explain the Holy text. We will examine the original languages (Hebrew and Greek) of the Bible to find fuller meaning and background of Scripture. Biblical Examination will be followed by Reflection Questions to help make the Scripture personal. Reflection Questions will lead to a richer understanding of the text, but will also place you within the biblical text to experience the hand of God. Finally each chapter concludes with a Spiritual Discipline to open the reader to healthy spiritual habits.
