Book Description
Ever since I was a little girl, I had a picture-perfect life planned for myself. Become a teacher and make a difference. Check. Surround myself with the best of friends. Check. Find a man who loved and valued me. Check. What I did not plan for was for that expertly crafted life to implode twenty minutes before I walked down the aisle. My life went into a tail-spin, spiraling out of control. Instead of hiding under a crocheted blanket on my couch with a pint of rocky road and a gallon of Pinot, I decided to hang on and see where this insane ride took me. Things couldn’t possibly get any worse, right? WRONG! People should stop asking that question because things can always get worse. But amid the relentless and humiliating tests life threw at me, I found something. Something I never thought I’d find with the last person I’d expect to find it with. I didn’t plan for Ryan Cohen, but maybe the best things in life shouldn't be planned. Maybe the secret to the perfect life is just letting go and allowing the universe drop you exactly where you need to be.

Book Description
Some say it was a religious cult. Some say it was a God-ordained ministry. Some say it saved them. Some say it ruined their lives. Mary Rosenberger was born and raised at Freedom Village USA. From the outside, it appeared to be a troubled teen industry program with a mission to rehabilitate and restore lost souls. On the inside, it was a community with an atmosphere of severe spiritual abuse, fear, and obedience to its founder and leader, a man everyone called Pastor. In this memoir, Mary shares her unique inner-circle story from her family's thirty-year staff residency and eventual exodus from Freedom Village. Its fear-based culture shaped Mary's relationship with herself, others, and God. Freedom Village: A Memoir is a daring, vulnerable story of both light and darkness, inviting readers along in the relentless pursuit of healing and freedom.

Finding His Footprints in the Sand

Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
“Offers hope to anyone that struggles with being ‘good enough’ for God” (Julie Zine Coleman, author of Unexpected Love). Perhaps you’ve experienced a defining moment, one that explains who you are today. God had a defining moment. His Son died on the cross for our sins, changing history and his relationship with mankind. Still, His forgiveness, love, and sacrifice are concepts unfamiliar to much of the world. Ignorant of such grace, society bombards us with the daily temptation to measure up or perform. When we fail to achieve the desired results, we struggle to feel God’s grace. This is especially true when life hits us hard through tragedy, unfortunate events, and prolonged suffering—we question; we wonder; we misunderstand His amazing grace. This can cause us to battle shame, self-doubt, and bitterness. When dark times come, are you able to find strength in God’s grace? Do you defeat insecurity, lack of self-worth, and guilt through your view of grace? Have you seen your Lord’s footprints in the sand when you look back at the most difficult times in your life? Do your struggles and disappointments bring you to a deeper understanding of His grace? In this book, Erica S. Kim starts with a defining moment in her personal life—the tragic death of her mother—to describe her journey to rediscover God’s grace. Through poignant true-life stories and teachings about women in the Bible, you will be led from the book of Genesis to the cross to see without a doubt how God has carried each one of us in His arms through every dark and hopeless moment, to help you to experience fulfillment and spiritual growth.

It is becoming more and more difficult for Shelby Reed to ignore the mounting restlessness brewing inside. Caught in the throes of a midlife crisis, disenchanted with her marriage and bored to death with the superficial junk that fills up her life, an unhappy Shelby hides behind the picket fence of her "perfect" lukewarm life. Desperate for a change, Shelby is coaxed into jumpstarting her career after a fourteen year hiatus.

In this poignant novel, a middle-aged woman on a frenzied search for satisfaction is forced to confront her demons. It takes the spoon-fed wisdom of a well-seasoned, jazzy, old soul to nurse Shelby back to health and lead her to the road of self discovery where Shelby begins her quest to find authentic happiness.

Earthkeeper
Author: Adam C Hall
Publisher: Waterside Productions, Inc
ISBN: 1939116848
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Adam C. Hall achieved the American Dream in all its glory and then woke-up to the nightmare of his own life’s condition. Once a financial power broker and real-estate developer, Adam undertook a life-changing metamorphosis that would ultimately alter his mind-set from Earth Conqueror to Earth Keeper. To come this far, Adam had to come to terms with the misery that was at the center of his very privileged and comfortable life. He endured the loss of all that he treasured most. It was only then that he was finally able to discover the Creative Power of the Universe that is hidden within each of us. We have entered an era like none other in history. The economy of the Western world and the ecology of the entire planet are threatened with the possibility of imminent collapse. In the midst of these dire circumstances, a dramatic shift is occurring within human consciousness. The ancient prophecies of the Hopi, Mayans and Incas, among others, all point to this moment as the time when humanity will undergo a rapid evolution within a single generation–that will affect all future generations. And evolve we must, if we are to remain as a viable species on a healthy planet. The EarthKeeper intimately chronicles Hall’s remarkable journey and illuminates a path for others to follow. Once a conquistador who felt entitled to rule over the earth, Adam transformed into a nature-centric “undeveloper,” dedicated to maintaining harmony and balance within the Gaia’s all-providing Garden. An Indiana Jones saga of exotic adventure and redemption, The EarthKeeper is a remarkable story of courage and conviction; and a roadmap to a better future–personally and collectively.
