Book Description
An illustrated journal for meeting grief with honesty and kindness—honoring loss, rather than packing it away With her breakout book It’s OK That You’re Not OK, Megan Devine struck a chord with thousands of readers through her honest, validating approach to grief. In her same direct, no-platitudes style, she now offers How to Carry What Can’t Be Fixed—a journal filled with unique, creative ways to open a dialogue with grief itself. “Being allowed to tell the truth about your grief is an incredibly powerful act,” she says. “This journal enables you to tell your whole story, without the need to tack on a happy ending where there isn’t one.” Grief is a natural response to death and loss—it’s not an illness to be cured or a problem to be fixed. This workbook contains no clichés, timetables, or checklists of stages to get through; it won’t help you “move past” or put your loss behind you. Instead, you’ll find encouragement, self-care exercises, and daily tools, including: •Writing prompts to help you honor your pain and heartbreak • On-the-spot practices for tough situations—like grocery store trips, the sleepless nights, and being the “awkward guest” • The art of healthy distraction and self-care • What you can do when you worry that “moving on” means “letting go of love” • Practical advice for fielding the dreaded “How are you doing?” question • What it means to find meaning in your loss • How to hold joy and grief at the same time • Tear-and-share resources to help you educate friends and allies • The “Griever’s Bill of Rights,” and much more Your grief, like your love, belongs to you. No one has the right to dictate, judge, or dismiss what is yours to live. How to Carry What Can’t Be Fixed is a journal and everyday companion to help you enter a conversation with your grief, find your own truth, and live into the life you didn’t ask for—but is here nonetheless.

Divine Secrets and Human Imaginations
Author: Angelika Berlejung
Publisher: Mohr Siebeck
ISBN: 3161600347
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 695
Book Description
The articles in this volume of collected essays, written over the last two decades and all revised, updated, and supplemented with unpublished material, are grouped around two themes: Divine Secrets and Human Imaginations. The first essays deal with the production, initiation, use and function, the abduction, repatriation, and the replacement of divine images, their outer appearance, and the many facets of the divine presence theology in Ancient Mesopotamia. The essays on the second topic deal with human imaginations, human constructs, and constructed memories, which assign meaning to the past or to things or experiences that are beyond human control. Thematically, several aspects of the human condition are examined, such as the ideas associated in the Old Testament and the Ancient Near East with death, corporeality, enemies, disasters, utopias, and passionate love.

Divine Money
Author: Emanuel Schaeublin
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253066581
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
"Zakat giving or mutual aid is a sacred practice in Islam. Where government and public safety nets fail, zakat serves as a form of social security in Muslim communities. In Divine Money, Emanuel Schaeublin shows how zakat institutions and direct zakat donations function in contemporary Palestine. Based on his ethnographic fieldwork in the city of Nablus, Schaeublin traces zakat flows as they provide critical support to households living under military rule and security surveillance. In the neighborhoods of Nablus, the Islamic tradition shapes public life. Many enact simple gifts of money of food as an expression of God's generosity and justice. How do such invocations of the divine enable people to negotiate responsibilities and tensions arising from differences in wealth in Palestinian society? What is the role of zakat in confronting political repression and economic instability?"--

The Divine Inquiry
Author: Sanford Zensen
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666759449
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Jesus had a lot to say about the way we live out our daily lives. In the process, he asks a lot of questions that are insightful, penetrating, and thought-provoking, all demanding an honest appraisal of oneself and an appropriate, life-changing response. He asks the same questions today. For example, Why are you so afraid? What do you want me to do for you? What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? This book explores a sampling of the questions Jesus asked, as he walked the streets of the ancient world. Every divine inquiry was/is designed to confront, convict, challenge, conform, and/or comfort (cf John 16:7-13) His listeners. His intention has always been the same - to give us a fresh, new set of eyes with which to assess our individual lives, address areas of personal weakness, encourage spiritual and emotional maturity, and press us to apply practical life-principles that actually work in everyday living. His purpose is discipleship, Christlikeness. His objective is to move us to consider the deepest of truths regarding the person I am, the person I could be, and the person I must be.

God's Divine Assignment
Author: Rev. Leon Abbott
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 164191355X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
In the writing of this awesome undertaking, Dr. Leon Abbott takes us behind the dark curtain of God's creation. We are invited into the deeper waters of God where babes desire to go. At the same time, the author believes that in these times of human existence, babes must be taught how to swim in the deeper waters of God's revelation and knowledge. On nothing God stood, and from within himself, creation was birthed; every time, he spoke the phrase "Let it be." When he said, "Let there be light," light appeared. And God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters." And God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear," and it was so. And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, herb-yielding seeds, and the fruit-yielding trees, after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth," and it was so. And God the Creator said, It was good. After man had become a sinner, man still had some good in him because of God's DNA within him. Man was still good enough for God to give heaven best (Jesus) for man's redemption. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10, KJV). The phrase "Let there be" continued until he reached the crown of his creation: man. It is here that God the Creator reaches down and forms man out of the dust of the ground, which he had carried within himself in the spiritual realm. He reaches down again and touch man by breathing into man's nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. It wasn't long after this that God placed the man he birthed in the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. He commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:16""17, KJV). Tell a child or someone what they can't do, and often time they will do what they been instructed not to do. In this writing, the author discusses even the Divine Assignment of Death and how Death came alive from the dead. Death couldn't give life to death; who gave life to the cold hands of death? The author gives us a clear answer as to why man needs Jesus. In the giving of his Divine Assignment, God takes man from the ordinary to the extraordinary. Moses was just an ordinary sheep/animal watcher until God gave him his Divine Assignment. We too, like Moses, are just merely existing until we begin carrying out our Divine Assignment in love for God and mankind. Your Divine Assignment will not only bless you, but it has been ordained by God to be a blessing to others as well. We continue to be blessed by the trees as they give off oxygen, and the sun that gives us light and heat, as they continue to carry out their God-given Divine Assignment. Why couldn't the fallen angels be redeemed by God when they failed in carrying out their Divine Assignment? The answer to this question and more is within this work of Dr. Leon Abbott.
