Pages : 111
Book Description
For the most part, there was nothing particularly unusual about Jean Potters life. Going right to work after graduating from high school, she spent most of her career as an executive assistant in several large New York-based companies. In fact, she was working for the managing director of Bank of America in its offices on the eighty-first floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. By the Grace of God is Jeans storyfrom her upbringing in Brooklyn, New York, to her jobs as assistant to several high-level executives, to her courtship and marriage to a New York City fireman, to setting up a home in Battery Park City, to that horrific day when she and her co-workers had to make their way down eighty-one flights of stairs in a desperate effort to escape the collapse of the North Tower. Its the story, too, of her husband, Dan, seeing flames erupting from the World Trade Center, and racing from Staten Island to Manhattan determined to help her, but, recognizing his duty as a fireman, stopping to help others even while he anguished over his wifes fate. Its also the story of the extraordinary effect living through that day had on both of their liveshaving to cope with the effects of post traumatic stress disorder; moving because they could no longer live in a home haunted by three thousand ghosts; giving up their jobs, Jean because she could no longer bear working in New York City and Dan because hed been hurt in the collapse of the South Tower; and having to leave the city they had grown up in and loved. Perhaps most important, By the Grace of God is the story of how their faith enabled them to come to terms with their experience and to find a new life of love, hope, and healing.

Healing a Shattered Soul

Publisher: Mindy Corporon, LLC.
ISBN: 9781641801089
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
In Healing a Shattered Soul, Mindy Corporon invites readers to join her search for inspiration and hope after domestic terrorism took the lives of her father and son. Headlines about the attack circled the world. Now, Mindy takes readers inside her family's struggle, the support of their faith community and her commitment to courageous kindness. A popular speaker, teacher and writer, Mindy has dedicated her life to encouraging kindness, faith and healing in congregations, companies and communities. Among the programs she has co-founded with this vision are the Faith Always Wins Foundation and Workplace Healing, LLC. She has traveled widely to lead workshops and speak at conferences, and also works with online events. She explains that she wrote this book "for those who are seeking inspiration; for those who are searching for a glimmer of hope and faith; and for those in need of necessary, supportive relationships, even in the hardest times." In his Foreword, best-selling author and pastor the Rev. Adam Hamilton writes, "Mindy Corporon's story helps us understand how one survives tragedy, and says to the reader, 'If Mindy can survive this, and can do what she has done, then surely I can survive the adversity I face and can bring something good from it.' " The book's Preface is a heart-felt appeal to readers from another mother who suffered a tragic loss to domestic terrorism in recent years. Susan Bro is the mother of Heather Heyer, killed in Charlottesville, Virginia. In her Preface, Susan writes, "Mothers lose their children to violence every day, and yet many have no time to grieve and receive little to no public support or attention. We must hold space in our hearts and minds for them as we continue to overcome hate with love. People say, 'Love always wins.' I say that is true when we practice that love in meaningful ways that make a difference. I see Mindy Corporon as one of those mothers doing exactly that. We never want other mothers to experience the pain and loss of losing a loved one, especially a child, to hate. I am honored to call Mindy Corporon my friend. Her book offers hope in a time of pain, pointing the way forward with faith and love. Read it and be encouraged to find your own way forward through pain and loss."

Is Divine Healing For Today?
Author: Leland McClanahan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1483644197
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Divine healing is a controversial subject with some people and some denominations. Many theologians disagree on this subject. There are so many sick in the world today. We cannot seem to build enough hospitals. Even with the latest technical advances and discoveries, there are still diseases, sicknesses, and malfunctions of the human body that people of science and medicine cannot understand nor prescribe a cure remedy. Many of the sick people are in the church. Illness does not seem just to plague churchless people, but the church going including even Bible believers seem to be just as ill as the people that have nothing to do with God and His church. The book is an outgrowth of a syllabus that the writer spent over seven months studying, categorizing, and outlining what the Bible itself has to say about healing. The history books were not consulted. The popular and non-popular books of famous people on healing were not sought. The writer does not have all the answers, but he does have some good answers. The library of Sixty-six books has been used. This Book is meant to be presented with biblical material from the stance of the “middle of road”. Is there still any hope for the incurable and curable disease being remedied? Does the Christian believer, that believer in the efficacy of the blood of Jesus, the virgin birth, the soon return of our Lord, and the resurrection of the dead, have any hope for the wellness of his physical being? Has the God of miracles, the creator, the maker of the most wonderful machine ever made (the body), the calmer of the winds and the waves, the sea walker, the healer in sacred writ, ceased to do his historical deeds in this modern day! In 2 Kings chapter 2:14, Elisha in seeking God’s remedy said, “Where is the Lord God of Elijah?” The subsequent words will mainly present what the ancient book, the Bible, has to say about this subject. Is Divine Healing for Today? Let us come, look together, and spend some time examining what the Word says.
