A story that might never know an END…if Will gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.

What Just Happened? What Happens Now? What Happens Next?
Author: Prepared By: Christian Media LLC
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1685179908
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
At every funeral, two elements always surface. First, people throw platitude after platitude, trying to make both themselves and the survivors of the deceased feel better about having lost a loved one. We say things like, "He/she is in a better place" or "He/she has gone to be with the Lord." There are too many such words expressed at internments to even mention in a work this size. The second most common thing that most all funerals have in common is people ask questions, seeking explanations about what has happened before, during, and after the death of their friend, family members, and others. Is there life after death? What is heaven/hell really like? What are they doing wherever it is that is where they are? Bookshelves and electronic media are replete with secular ideas and/or personal hypostasis about what happens after my beloved has left this life for another. This is where this work will differ. The subject at hand will be poured into God's Holy Word, and we will let the Bible interpret the Bible. The old phrase is applicable here, "If the first sense makes good sense, everything else is nonsense." We say: If the Bible makes sense, why look further to sources that at best can only report on what they are told happens by someone who has been declared clinically deceased and resurrected. Real or imagined. Why try to force man's philosophical guesses into the discussion populated with what God has given us. For more than a millennium people have concerned themselves with gathering information that would pertain to any sort of afterlife. As far back as the earliest Egyptian rulers believed that there was some sort of existence that would follow this earthly lifetime, people today are still asking questions and seeking more and more information on the subject. The writers of Christian Media, LLC have herein made an effort to expose what the Bible has to tell us about life after living on earth. Without personal doctrinal, opinion, or phycological contamination, the elements of existence after this world is put forth in expositional context. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: Because thou hast rejected knowledge. (Hosea 4:6 KJV) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Timothy 3:1-7 KJV)

Born for Love
Author: Bruce D. Perry
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061987670
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
The groundbreaking exploration of the power of empathy by renowned child-psychiatrist Bruce D. Perry, co-author, with Oprah Winfrey, of What Happened to You? Born for Love reveals how and why the brain learns to bond with others—and is a stirring call to protect our children from new threats to their capacity to love. “Empathy, and the ties that bind people into relationships, are key elements of happiness. Born for Love is truly fascinating.” — Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project From birth, when babies' fingers instinctively cling to those of adults, their bodies and brains seek an intimate connection, a bond made possible by empathy—the ability to love and to share the feelings of others. In this provocative book, psychiatrist Bruce D. Perry and award-winning science journalist Maia Szalavitz interweave research and stories from Perry's practice with cutting-edge scientific studies and historical examples to explain how empathy develops, why it is essential for our development into healthy adults, and how to raise kids with empathy while navigating threats from technological change and other forces in the modern world. Perry and Szalavitz show that compassion underlies the qualities that make society work—trust, altruism, collaboration, love, charity—and how difficulties related to empathy are key factors in social problems such as war, crime, racism, and mental illness. Even physical health, from infectious diseases to heart attacks, is deeply affected by our human connections to one another. As Born for Love reveals, recent changes in technology, child-rearing practices, education, and lifestyles are starting to rob children of necessary human contact and deep relationships—the essential foundation for empathy and a caring, healthy society. Sounding an important warning bell, Born for Love offers practical ideas for combating the negative influences of modern life and fostering positive social change to benefit us all.
