No Makeup
Author: Irene Kim
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1545605483
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
"The greatest beauty of all is God’s invitation to us to surrender our failures for His second chances, to find hope in hopelessness, light in the darkness, and redemption when all seems lost." We are undeniably wicked and sinful by nature, even as Christians. We all fall short. We cannot save ourselves. These are bleak statements when left unaddressed, but Irene confronts these tough truths in No Makeup as she unveils some of her most shameful struggles, starting with her first encounter with sexual immorality as a child, as well as her battle with facing adultery later in marriage. One day, convicted by the Holy Spirit to stop wearing makeup, Irene obediently removed this one physical veneer, only to find it to be the first step leading her down a spiritual path of shedding one facade after another until her soul was stripped before her Maker. Letting go of her much-esteemed “good girl” image, Irene walks us through her journey toward owning her inborn deceitfulness as she comes face to face with the unrighteousness within her—the struggles we have all experienced in one form or another, but most of us keep quiet and hidden. She lays them bare so we can bear witness to the Almighty's miraculous work of taking charge of these sinful moments and command them into holy moments. In turn, they become catalysts for transformation and restoration instead of Satan's intended destruction and defeat.

Balladz
Author: Sharon Olds
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0525656952
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • Songs from our era of communal grief and reckoning—by the Pulitzer Prize and T. S. Eliot Prize for Poetry winner, called "a poet for these times, a powerful woman who won’t back down" (San Francisco Chronicle). "At the time of have-not, I look at myself in this mirror," writes Olds in this self-scouring, exhilarating volume, which opens with a section of quarantine poems, and at its center boasts what she calls Amherst Balladz (whose syntax honors Emily Dickinson: "she was our Girl - our Woman - / Man enough - for me") and many more in her own contemporary, long-flowing-sentence rhythm. Olds sings of her childhood, young womanhood, and maturity all mixed up together, seeing an early lover in the one who is about to buried; seeing her whiteness, seeing her privilege; seeing her mother (whom her readers will recognize) "flushed exalted at Punishment time"; seeing how we've spoiled the earth but carrying a stray indoor spider carefully back out to the garden. It is Olds's gift to us that in the richly detailed exposure of her sorrows she can still elegize songbirds, her true kin, and write that heaven comes here in life, not after it.

Arias
Author: Sharon Olds
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0525656944
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Following her recent Odes, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet gives us radical new poems of intimate life and political conscience, of race and class and a mother's violence. The atom bomb, Breaking Bad, Rasputin, the cervix, her mother's return from the dead: the peerless Sharon Olds once again takes up subject matter that is both difficult and ordinary, elusive and everywhere. Each aria is shaped by its unique harmonics and moral logic, as Olds stands center stage to sing of sexual pleasure and chance wisdom, and faces the tragic life of our nation and our planet. "I cannot say I did not ask / to be born," begins one aria, which considers how, with what actions, with what thirst, we each ask for a turn, and receive our portion on earth. Olds delivers these pieces with all the passion, anguish, and solo force that make a great performance, in the process enlarging the soul of her reader.
