Book Description
Can two broken hearts heal each other? In the tranquil, picturesque town of Meadow Creek, life moves at a gentle pace, surrounded by rolling hills, whispering pines, and vast fields as far as the eye can see. Yet, beneath this serene facade, it's the calm before a perfect storm that is brewing and grumbling in the distance — a storm that will not only push Grace to the edge of life and death but also into the arms of someone as special and broken as herself. Grace and Luca, two souls scarred by past traumas, find solace and strength in each other's company. Grace, grappling with the scars of her troubled past and the fears of her yet uncertain future, tries to find her way in the whipping gusts of life. Luca, dealing with the wounds of shattered relationships, broken dreams, and social isolation, has retracted into a world where he believes nobody can hurt him anymore. When fate lets their paths cross, neither of them knows how much they will become the light in each other's darkness. Through shared moments of vulnerability and laughter, they begin to uncover the pieces of their broken hearts. From the serenity of Luca's farm to the bustling streets of Ashford, their journey is one of healing, discovery, and the budding hope that two wounded hearts can indeed find a way to heal together. In a tale rich with emotional depth and intimate revelations, will a love thought to be lost forever reignite? Grace and Luca must confront their fears and decide if they can truly overcome the shadows of their past and regain trust in one another. Can they together find the courage to let go of what was and embrace what will be?

Pages : 240
Book Description
Evangelist Todd White hears those words often. But the truth is that what Todd shares is not just a story - it's a testimony. It is evidence not only of what God has done but of what He wants to do again. It is evidence of what God can and will do for you, of what God wants to do for you. Fully addicted to drugs and pornography as a child, Todd lived in darkness. But his testimony is about a journey from that utter darkness into marvelous light. It is about a man who hungers for the Word of God and has been radically saved, changed by it. It is about a man learning to be exactly who God created him to be. It is about a child of God walking in the light of Jesus and wanting others to walk in the light too. With refreshing honesty, Todd White challenges readers to make Jesus their everything, to renew their minds, to be bold as lions, and to make an impact for the kingdom of God. Life Is Short-Leave a Legacy. TODD WHITE was a drug addict and atheist for 22 years until 2004 when he was radically set free! Todd believes that redemption and righteousness are the foundational keys for living life as a new creation in Christ. Todd's foremost desire is to see the Holy Spirit flowing through believers everywhere that they go-at work, school, grocery stores, malls, gas stations, and more. Todd's true joy is being able to reproduce a 24/7 kingdom lifestyle in every believer. His heart is to activate people in the simplicity of who they really are and confront the barriers that hold them back from being who God created them to be. No one is excluded!

All That You Leave Behind

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
“A documentary filmmaker and daughter of the late, great New York Times columnist David Carr celebrates and wrestles with her father’s legacy in a raw, redemptive memoir.”—O: The Oprah Magazine “A breathtaking read . . . a testimony equal parts love and candor. David would have had it no other way.”—Ta-Nehisi Coates, bestselling author of Between the World and Me NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY GLAMOUR AND MARIE CLAIRE Dad: What will set you apart is not talent but will and a certain kind of humility. A willingness to let the world show you things that you play back as you grow as an artist. Talent is cheap. Me: OK I will ponder these things. I am a Carr. Dad: That should matter quite a bit, actually not the name but the guts of what that name means. A celebrated journalist, bestselling author (The Night of the Gun), and recovering addict, David Carr was in the prime of his career when he suffered a fatal collapse in the newsroom of The New York Times in 2015. Shattered by his death, his daughter Erin Lee Carr, at age twenty-seven an up-and-coming documentary filmmaker, began combing through the entirety of their shared correspondence—1,936 items in total—in search of comfort and support. What started as an exercise in grief quickly grew into an active investigation: Did her father’s writings contain the answers to the question of how to move forward in life and work without her biggest champion by her side? How could she fill the space left behind by a man who had come to embody journalistic integrity, rigor, and hard reporting, whose mentorship meant everything not just to her but to the many who served alongside him? All That You Leave Behind is a poignant coming-of-age story that offers a raw and honest glimpse into the multilayered relationship between a daughter and a father. Through this lens, Erin comes to understand her own workplace missteps, existential crises, and relationship fails. While daughter and father bond over their mutual addictions and challenges with sobriety, it is their powerful sense of work and family that comes to ultimately define them. This unique combination of Erin Lee Carr’s earnest prose and her father’s meaningful words offers a compelling read that shows us what it means to be vulnerable and lost, supported and found. It is a window into love, with all of its fierceness and frustrations. “Thank you, Erin, for this beautiful book. Now I am going to steal all of your father’s remarkable advice and tell my kids I thought of it.”—Judd Apatow
