I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die
Author: Sarah J. Robinson

ISBN: 0593193539
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Moving to America turns H&à's life inside out.

But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope.

This is the moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing as she journeys from one country to another, one life to the next.

A Father's Daughter

Pages : 461
Book Description
Originally released in 2019, this 2023, revised 2nd edition replaces the original book with improved grammar, formatting, and story-telling. The original was my first book as an author; however, since releasing 'A Father's Daughter', I authored more books, which were better written, and 'A Father's Daughter', deserved to be upgraded to do it justice. The story is emotional, traumatising, uplifting, and involves a roller-coaster of emotions, and it is one of my best books. - Stephen Bradley-Waters 'The story is beautifully written.... one of love between a father and daughter. No matter the struggle, the father continued to battle everything to get his child back to the life she loved... I recommend this book to everyone. It's in my top 5 reads.' - Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ In this heartbreaking true story, the abduction of his daughter has a father on an emotional and difficult journey through Family Court in pursuit of justice. The battle is bitter and brutal, with the child stuck in the middle of a heartless and inept UK legal system. Constant and baseless accusations from the mother further derail proceedings, causing delays and torment for their daughter. This story is about courage, angst, perseverance, selfishness, love, and pain. Two sides rival for the residency of their daughter. One trying to bring her back home to the life she adores. The other is starting a new life in an unfamiliar location many miles away from family and friends. Readers are passionate about A Father's Daughter: 'A book that takes you on a heartfelt journey that only a parent can imagine... the only important thing to the author is seeing his daughter be happy... would definitely recommend.' - Amazon UK reviewer, 5 stars 'A Father's love is a mighty thing... This is a story of a father fighting the world for his daughter. It's traumatic and sad to see the story plan out... A great read' - Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars 'While reading this detailed memoir I felt as though I was right there as the events unfolded... Blindsided and accused Stephen never loses hope' - Goodreads reviewer, 4 stars 'This is a true story, straight from the heart... It was interesting to hear the story from the dad’s point of view... He is simply a doting dad who wants what is best, both practically and emotionally for his child and is prepared to sacrifice his own quality of life to achieve this... To anyone experiencing a similar situation, whether male or female, I would definitely recommend you read this.' - Goodreads reviewer, 4 stars 'A truly tear-jerking insight into the authors' life' - Goodreads reviewer, 4 stars.
