Book Description
The Journey into the Divided Heart is a challenging guide that will push you spiritually to a new level of taking responsibility and defining your personal role in the process of healing your hurting heart. Though highly practical and spiritually directive, this book zooms out to give you a convicting overview of the human heart. In its state of being divided, our heart tends toward God as its healer but also toward itself as provider and protector simultaneously. You will learn your defense mechanisms, be led in decision-making journaling and prayers, and you will be given an overview of nine powerful, biblical, and clinical interventions that will lead you to living life to its fullest (John 10:10). This book is a must read for anyone looking for true lasting change, as well as a role-defining text for counselors and pastors who are looking to integrate cutting-edge clinical counseling with an unwavering faith-based, non-religious approach to working with the brokenhearted.

Our Divided Political Heart
Author: E.J. Dionne Jr.
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 160819440X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
America today is at a political impasse; we face a nation divided and discontented. Acclaimed political commentator E.J. Dionne argues that Americans can't agree on who we are as a nation because we can't agree on who we've been, or what it is, philosophically and spiritually, that makes us "Americans." Dionne places our current quarrels in the long-standing tradition of struggle between two core values: the love of individualism and our reverence for community. Both make us who we are, and to ignore either one is to distort our national character. He sees the current Tea Party as a representation of hyper-individualism, and takes on their agenda-serving distortions of history, from the Revolution to the Civil War and the constitutional role of government. Tea Partiers have reacted fiercely to President Obama, who seeks to restore a communitarian balance - a cause in American liberalism which Dionne traces through recent decades. The ability of the American system to self-correct may be one of its greatest assets, but we have been caught in cycles of over-correcting. Dionne seeks, through an understanding of our factious past, to rediscover the idea of true progress, and the confidence that it can be achieved.

Divided Hearts
Author: Michael Cassity
Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press
ISBN: 0806185368
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
Guided by a penchant for self-reflection and thoughtful discussion, Presbyterians have long been pulled in conflicting directions in their perceptions of their shared religious mission—with a tension that sometimes divides hearts as well as congregations. In this first comprehensive history of the Presbyterian Church in Oklahoma, historians Michael Cassity and Danney Goble reveal how Oklahoma Presbyterians have responded to the demands of an evolving society, a shifting theology, and even a divided church. Beginning with the territorial period, Cassity and Goble examine the dynamics of Presbyterian missions among the Five Tribes in Indian Territory and explain how Presbyterians differed from other denominations. As they trace the Presbyterian journey, they examine the way Presbyterians addressed the evil of slavery and the dispossession of Oklahoma’s Indians; the challenges of industrial society; the modern issues of depression, war, and racial injustice; and concerns of life and faith with which other Americans have also struggled. An insightful and independent history that draws upon firsthand accounts of congregations and church members across the state, Divided Hearts attests to the courage of Presbyterians in dealing with their struggles and shows a church very much at work—and at home—in Oklahoma.

The Five Legends
Author: , Anasazi Foundation
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1523098279
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Drawing on 30 years of helping families in-crisis, this profound fable by the Anasazi Foundation illustrates the anguish of conflict and shows how we can end war within ourselves, within families, and even between nations. The Five Legends tells the story of two estranged brothers, leaders of their people, who find themselves on an unexpected journey. Struggling against each other, they stumble and fall into a great and terrible canyon. Trapped, the two brothers are rescued by an old man—“the last of a people”—who offers to guide them out of the canyon if they agree to learn the five legends of peace. The brothers agree and begin a journey that may not only save themselves, but also their people. The brothers learn that to heal any conflict we must first look within ourselves. As this fable beautifully puts it, “War does not begin or end with armies and leaders. In truth, war begins and ends within each of us—within our hearts. When we choose to war with others, we turn our hearts away from them and blind ourselves to their light. …To have a heart at war is to invite war into your life.” The path to peace begins when we stop thinking about “me” and start thinking about “WE.” This poetic and moving allegory is written for all ages. Its message is both timeless and desperately needed for our own time

The Divided Heart
Author: Evan Rhodes
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595272975
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
The tumultuous epic of The American Palace Series continues in The Divided Heart, a tale of the most cataclysmic time in American history, a time when there were two White Houses in the nation. In 1860 the nation is hopelessly divided over the issues of States' Rights and Slavery and verges on Civil War. Nowhere is that division more evident than in the hearts of Rebecca Brand and her family. Rebecca, a Southerner who believes fervently in the Union, tries vainly to mediate the deadly battle between her sons, Gunning and Bravo, a battle that began decades before when Rebecca gave birth to Bravo, her love child. Gunning, brutally handsome, is involved in the Confederate Secret Service and engages John Wilkes Booth to kidnap Lincoln, thus hoping to negotiate an end to the Civil War. Bravo, the inventor, is an advisor to President Lincoln. As always, the Brands will be opposed by their mortal enemies, the Connaughts-Veronique, Sean, Carleton and the blazingly beautiful but mad Romance Connaught, Gunning's mistress. Rebecca's grandchildren, Forrest, Geary, Sharon, and especially Becky-traumatized and raped years before-will find their fate and salvation in the horror of war-as will Rebecca. Praise for previous books of the American Palace Series. Bless This House. "A captivating novel that creatively meshes fact and fiction." -Publishers Weekly Valiant Hearts. Superbly researched as informative as it is entertaining marvelously readable fare. -Jennifer Wilde, author of Once More Miranda
