Now he’s home, and he’s on a mission—to make amends with the people he hurt most, including the woman he still loves.

Pete isn’t sure he deserves Penny’s love, and she isn’t interested in taking a second chance with a man who only reminds her of her biggest hidden insecurity. Together they’ll have to decide if the healing they both crave is worth the risk of opening their hearts just one more time.

Mended
Author: Angie Smith
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1433678314
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
We love to cheer for the underdog and believe to our core that every life makes a difference. And we are right. There is no one God can’t use and no one whose brokenness is too broken for God. We know this is true for our friends when we want to encourage them. Yet, when it comes to the places of our innermost sense of shame and regret, we often wonder if it is really true that God can work all things together for good for those who love Him. Angie Smith is one who was quick to encourage a friend, but struggled to believe that God could truly make something spectacular out of her broken- ness and disappointments. Responding to God’s leading to both break and reconstruct a simple pitcher, she reflected: It was as though God were saying, here you are, Angie. You are mended. You are filled with my Spirit, and I am asking you to pour yourself out. The image of my life as a broken pitcher was beautiful to me, but at the same time, it was hard to look at all of the cracks. I ran my fingers along them and told Him I wish it had been different. How I wished I had always loved Him, always obeyed Him, always sought Him the way I should. I was mad at the imperfections, years wasted, gaping holes where it should be smooth. But God, my ever-gracious God, was gentle and yet convicting as He explained. My dearest Angie. How do you think the world has seen me? If it wasn’t for the cracks, I couldn’t seep out the way I do. I chose the pitcher. I chose you, just as you are. Mended takes you on a journey to show how faith lived in the regular events of daily life is all that it takes to be a part of creating God’s picture of redemption in your life and those around you. Your life does make a difference—because of how He is magnified in the cracks.

Award-winning artist Katrina Rodabaugh presents a comprehensive guide to building (and keeping) a wardrobe that matters.

Woven throughout are stories, essays, and a slow fashion call-to-action, encouraging readers to get involved or deepen their commitment to changing the destructive habit of overconsumption.

Book Description
A veteran who will do anything for those he loves, the ex he never got over, and the rescue dog who needs them both. Family duty called Sergeant Levi Renner back to his small home town. With ailing parents depending on him, he’ll take any job that keeps him close to home—even if it means giving up his dream and working with Brooke Larsen, the veterinarian who just moved back to town… the ex he can’t seem to get out of his mind. Brooke never imagined she’d end up back in Liberty Cove, but that’s exactly where she found herself after falling on hard times. Accepting a temporary job as the resident veterinarian at the Wounded Warrior Rescue seems like a great first step toward rebuilding her career until she runs into Levi, the ex she never really got over. When the lovable town matchmaker pushes them together, the same old issues that drove them apart years ago rise to the surface. Despite the feelings they still have for each other, any chance of rekindling their relationship seems out of reach. When their insistent matchmaker won't quit scheming, the only way to protect their hearts is to fake a relationship and convince her that her services are no longer needed. But fake dating an ex you’re still in love with, isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Mending Matters
Author: Katrina Rodabaugh
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1683353307
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
This guide explores visible mending techniques in both hands-on projects and thoughtful insight about how mending relates to mindful well-being. Mending Matters explores sewing on two levels: First, it includes more than twenty projects that showcase visible mending—styles that are edgy, modern, and bold, yet draw on traditional stitching. It does all this with just four simple mending techniques: exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving. In addition, the book addresses the way mending leads to a more mindful relationship to fashion and to overall well-being. In essays that accompany each how-to chapter, Katrina Rodabaugh explores mending as a metaphor for appreciating our own naturally flawed selves. She also examines the ways in which mending teaches us new skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all gained from making things with our own hands.

Publisher: Civitas Books
ISBN: 0786749970
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
The many facets of black family life have not always been fully visible in American literature. Black families have often been portrayed as chaotic, fractured, and emotionally devastated, and historians and sociologists are just beginning to acknowledge the resilience and strength of African American families through centuries of hardship. In Mending the World, a host of beloved writers celebrate the richness of black family life, revealing how deep, complicated, and joyous modern kinship can be. From James McBride's tender recollection of the man who claimed eight stepchildren as his own to Toi Derricotte's moving portrait of a pregnant teenager who decides to keep her child; from Debra Dickerson's lament over the shooting that crippled her nephew to Charles Johnson's whimsical look at a married couple's mid-life crisis; from Shay Youngblood's moving fictional evocation of a lost mother to poet Kendel Hippolyte's poignant telling of a father's unexpected legacy, this inspiring volume presents-through fiction, memoir, and poetry-a multi-layered and optimistic portrait of today's black America. Mending the World features fiction, personal memoir, and poetry by new writers (some publishing here for the first time) and established members of the canon.
