Me, My Hair, and I
Author: Elizabeth Benedict

Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
“[A] splendid collection . . . By turns wry, tender, pointed, and laugh-out-loud funny.” —Publishers Weekly “Untangles the many truths about hair, and the lives we lead underneath it.” —Pamela Druckerman, author of Bringing Up Bébé Ask a woman about her hair, and she just might tell you the story of her life. Ask a whole bunch of women about their hair, and you could get a history of the world. Surprising, insightful, frequently funny, and always forthright, the essays in Me, My Hair, and I are reflections and revelations about every aspect of women’s lives from family, race, religion, and motherhood to culture, health, politics, and sexuality. They take place in African American kitchens, at Hindu Bengali weddings, and inside Hasidic Jewish homes. The conversation is intimate and global at once. Layered into these reminiscences are tributes to influences throughout history: Jackie Kennedy, Lena Horne, Farrah Fawcett, the Grateful Dead, and Botticelli’s Venus. The long and the short of it is that our hair is our glory—and our nemesis, our history, our self-esteem, our joy, our mortality. Every woman knows that many things in life matter more than hair, but few bring as much pleasure as a really great hairdo.

Pages : 257
Book Description
The New York Times bestselling author of Get Out of Your Head provides a revolutionary path to embracing a healthy relationship with your emotions, one that leads to life-giving connection with God and others as well as to a richer understanding of yourself. “This book is worth thousands of dollars of counseling.”—Jonathan Pokluda, bestselling author and host of the Becoming Something podcast How often have you heard, “Don’t let your emotions get the best of you”? But what if instead of ignoring our feelings, we noticed them, named them, and let God use them to draw us closer to Himself and others? Many of us need to unlearn damaging messages about our emotions. We’ve been taught, for example, that emotions are untrustworthy, when, in fact, God can use them to help us see where we need His healing. In Untangle Your Emotions, Jennie Allen uses scientific research, biblical insight, and her own story to help you ● exchange stuffing, dismissing, or minimizing your emotions for a five-step process to know what you feel and what to do about it ● debunk the myth that feelings are sinful by learning how emotional maturity leads to deeper connection with God and others ● live emotionally healthy by applying biblical wisdom and therapeutic research that works whether you self-identify as “emotional” or not ● sit with feelings that are confusing and painful by discovering the depth of God’s love and compassion for you Feelings aren’t something to fix; they are something to feel. As we discover how to name and navigate our emotions, we’ll learn how they can draw us closer to the God who built us—soul, mind, and heart.

Soaring with Eagles

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
Soaring With Eagles is a book of devotional meditations upon the book of James. It helps us to deal with our trouble and suffering. I want to be in the line in Heaven, waiting to talk to James about his book. I want to recite my heartbreaks and ask James, "Should I have been happy about these?" I already anticipate his response, "Yes, for suffering stretches you and brings all the character that God has already placed within you to the surface, or it diminishes you because you do not see its intended purpose and accept it." The growth that suffering awakens in us will produce real faith, which shows itself in ministry to the poor, disenfranchised, downtrodden and needy people around us. This book is for all those who want to become real Christians instead of plastic Christians. All who yearn for true greatness should benefit from reading Soaring With Eagles. Readers should learn to laugh when suffering comes their way, knowing that suffering can be a gift from God. Soaring With Eagles should prepare readers for the time when life tumbles in. And, when it does, we will be drawn toward God instead of retreating away from Him.

Book Description
Would you like to live a more fulfilling life? A life marked by closeness to God, love for others, self-care, and productive purpose? Just about any life improvement requires one thing: changing behavior. You’ll either have to start a new behavior, refine an old one, or stop an unwanted behavior altogether. The decision to change behavior can be daunting because changing habits and routines is often difficult. Changes can bring about good, but they can also upend usual ways of doing things. This book guides you in how to change just about any behavior for what the apostle Paul called “a more excellent way.” The guidance is rooted in cutting-edge social science research joined with Christian understanding of the good life and how to achieve it. From this blended perspective, the book presents a general model for how you can effectively change your behavior. It gives you dozens of practical, proven strategies that you can start using right away. What’s the secret to behavior change? It happens best when a person combines several strategies. First, they start small. Next, they find ways to motivate themselves and to cultivate their spiritual gift of self-control. Finally, in all steps, they invite Christ into the process: through Scripture, prayer, and fellowship. Imagine what your life would be like if you could better match what you do daily to what matters most to you both now and eternally! Matching your behavior to your core values with God alongside is the key to creating a truly beautiful life.
