Book Description
Maybe God Was Busy retraces one woman's journey growing up behind the tourist veil of Jamaica, one of the most beloved islands in the world. It is a raw, unaltered look at an idyllic childhood interrupted by chronic sexual abuse. From molestation, to incest, to sex with the "church brother," to sex with the voodoo practitioner charged with saving a dying brother, to a pregnancy and abortion-sans anesthesia-at age 15, everything is revealed. Maybe God Was Busy is truly raw and authentic-a memoir saturated with abuse, survival, forgiveness, triumph and redemption-and yes laughter.

Book Description
Fibromyalgia is listed as one of the top 10 most painful conditions in medicine, but many doctors still do not "believe" in it, or, if they do, they have a vague notion of a collection of mild symptoms that they attribute to stress, menstrual problems, weight gain, depression or hysteria. FMS (a common term for fibromyalgia) attacks men and women of all ages, even children, and varies in intensity. Because doctors do not like to treat conditions they don't understand, patients are often ignored, denied pain relief, shuttled off to other "experts", or filled with powerful prescription drugs that may add new and confusing symptoms. This book will help take charge of the condition and find trusted physicians in order to obtain relief.

With relatable anecdotes, Alli models real-life guidance on boundaries, relationships, and self-care, humbly examining her own mistakes and walking through how she learned from her missteps and found peace in a world of busyness.

Book Description
Have you ever experienced something challenging in your life? Was that moment so excruciating that you tried everything in your power to avoid feeling the pain it caused you? You, my friend, are not alone. Two things that every human being on planet Earth have in common are twenty-four hours in a day and experiencing hard times in life. We as humans are professionals at avoiding pain, right? We get consumed with work, hobbies, travel, and just about anything else to distract and numb the pain that we encounter from simply going through day-to-day life. Through is a book that’s all about beginning the healing process. Whether your heart is broken from a breakup, devastated from the loss of a loved one, discouraged due to being released from a job, or just plain hopeless, pain is pain. Rather than learning how to live with that pain and accepting it as a normality, it’s time to boldly confront it, accept it for what it is, and start to mend. Life is a beautiful thing, and you deserve to believe that. Instead of going around the hurt, you will learn that the only way to experience true and lasting healing is by going through it. It’s messy, it’s painful, it’s unpredictable, but it’s worth it. rough is a book that was birthed out of pain. rough is a message that came out of a mess. Whether you’re currently facing pain or want to prepare yourself for the inevitability of its happening, Through is for you.

Book Description
A Year of Reflection "God is still speaking" started as an advertising slogan for the United Church of Christ, but more than 20 years later, it endures as a faith proclamation: God is still speaking—in the Bible but also through the arts, in the sciences, and in the struggles for justice. God is still speaking—because the world is still evolving. God is still speaking—and God isn't finished with us yet! God is still speaking—so we should keep engaging our faith with curiosity, wonder, and even playfulness. If you wonder whether God has anything to say in these tumultuous times; if your faith is feeling stuck or finding itself in unknown territory; if you think devotional books are sappy or pious or irrelevant; God Is Still Speaking will give your spirit a God-filled jolt! Each devotional begins with scripture, ends with prayer, and brings bold encouragement to your day. God is Still Speaking: 365 Daily Devotionals is a collection of wondering, provocative, and playful reflections for the person who thinks devotional books are "too pious." Spend 365 days immersed in the affirmation: God is still speaking!
